Digital Realty ( (DLR) ) has provided an update.

On May 4, 2026, Digital Realty Trust entered into a new at-the-market equity offering sales agreement allowing it to issue up to $7.5 billion of common stock, including through forward sale arrangements with a syndicate of major banks acting as agents, principals, forward sellers and forward purchasers. The company simultaneously terminated its prior ATM program, under which about $569.9 million of capacity remained, and plans to use net proceeds to repay borrowings on global revolving credit facilities and other debt, fund acquisitions and development, and support general corporate purposes, which could strengthen its balance sheet and finance continued expansion of its data center portfolio while modestly diluting existing shareholders over time.

The most recent analyst rating on (DLR) stock is a Buy with a $211.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Digital Realty stock, see the DLR Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on DLR Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, DLR is a Neutral.

The score is driven primarily by strong earnings-call momentum (raised FFO guidance, record backlog and leasing) and constructive technicals. Offsetting factors are only solid—not pristine—financial quality due to historical free-cash-flow volatility and sizeable debt, plus a stretched valuation with a very high P/E despite a moderate dividend yield.
