NEXTDC launches jumbo accelerated entitlement offer to raise new equity

Nextdc Limited ( (AU:NXT) ) has issued an announcement.

NEXTDC Limited has lodged details of a proposed accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer, indicating it plans to issue up to 118,676,034 new fully paid ordinary shares. Trading in the shares will resume on an ex-entitlement basis on April 22, 2026, with key dates including a record date on the same day, a retail offer closing on May 11, 2026, and new retail securities to be issued on May 18, 2026.
