DALLAS, Nov. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Csquare, Inc. (NYSE: CSQR) (“Csquare” or the “Company”), a leading provider of carrier-neutral data center solutions, today reported financial results for its fiscal third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

“Our third quarter results demonstrate strong and disciplined execution by our team and continued momentum across the business,” said Spencer Mullee, Chief Executive Officer of Csquare. “We delivered strong revenue growth, record bookings and meaningful operating leverage while continuing to benefit from strong demand for our carrier-neutral digital infrastructure platform.”

“These results reflect the solidity of our recurring revenue model and low net revenue churn, the strength of customer demand across our markets, and the operating leverage inherent in our business as Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to 47.8% from 40.5% in the prior year period. Following our initial public offering in July, which resulted in $1.1 billion of debt reduction, our business is well positioned to continue executing on our strategy to deliver high-quality digital infrastructure across our urban core-focused portfolio.”

“Demand for our offering remains strong and continues to accelerate. The strength of our platform is resonating in the market across traditional enterprise and higher density deployments as new and existing customers deploy and expand workloads on our platform. We believe our diversified portfolio, disciplined capital allocation strategy, and deep customer relationships position Csquare to continue capitalizing on a strong demand and pricing environment.  We remain focused on targeting high-quality customers, a diverse set of customers spanning multiple industries, and contracts that provide long-term, predictable cash flow.”

Third Quarter 2026 Highlights

Revenues
Third quarter total revenue increased 25.6% year-over-year to $302.3 million, compared to $240.8 million in the prior year period. Growth was driven by continued demand for the Company’s colocation platform, customer deployments across existing and newly acquired facilities, and expansion of recurring infrastructure services. Revenue excluding metered power increased 22.1% to $276.2 million, underscoring the continued strength of the Company’s recurring revenue base and customer expansion activity. 

Commercial Activity
Csquare posted bookings of $66.1 million in the third quarter, representing the Company’s 14th consecutive quarter of sequential bookings growth. The quarter was characterized by continued expansion of the commercial pipeline, strong pricing, and customers increasingly committing capacity further in advance of deployment requirements. Management believes these trends reflect ongoing supply constraints in many markets and growing customer focus on delivery certainty and long-term infrastructure planning.

Bookings were generated across enterprise customers, network providers, cloud-related deployments and higher-density infrastructure requirements. In addition, a significant portion of third-quarter bookings are expected to be deployed on shorter timelines than historical averages due to the utilization of existing capacity and targeted infrastructure upgrades rather than large-scale shell expansion projects.

Net Loss   
Net loss for the third quarter of 2026 was $88.1 million, compared to a net loss of $29.8 million in the third quarter of 2025. The increase in net loss was primarily driven by higher year-over-year interest expense, IPO-related transaction costs, post-IPO stock-based compensation expenses, and costs associated with terminating certain pre-IPO compensation arrangements.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA increased 44.3% year-over-year to $132.1 million, compared to $91.6 million in the third quarter of 2025. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to 47.8%, compared to 40.5% in the prior-year period, reflecting continued revenue growth, disciplined operating execution, and the inherent operating leverage of the Company’s highly recurring business model.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Loss is included in the financial tables accompanying this release. 

2026 Guidance Summary

For the full year 2026, Csquare expects total revenues between $1.14 and $1.16 billion, Adjusted EBITDA between $490 and $500 million, recurring capital expenditures between $50 and $60 million, and non-recurring growth capital expenditures between $620 and $640 million.

The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA because certain items that affect the comparable GAAP measure cannot be reasonably provided without unreasonable effort.

Business Highlights

• Generated record bookings of $66.1 million, marking the Company’s 14th consecutive quarter of sequential bookings growth and reflecting sustained demand across enterprise, cloud, and network customers.
• Solid customer retention, with quarterly net revenue churn of 1.9% in line with the prior year period and within management expectations.
• Expanded contracted power capacity by nearly 47% year-over-year to 428 MW, supported by strategic acquisitions and continued customer deployments. Contracted utilization reached 108%, demonstrating demand that exceeds current sellable capacity and is supported by the Company’s development pipeline and planned capacity expansions.
• Commissioned approximately 12 MW of additional power capacity vs. prior quarter to increase sellable power to 397 MW as part of the Company’s ongoing focus to invest in attractive, high return capacity expansion projects.
• Continued investing in long-term growth, deploying $149 million of growth capital expenditures during the quarter while investing an additional $16 million in recurring capital expenditures to maintain and enhance the Company’s core infrastructure platform. 

IPO Highlights
During July 2026, Csquare successfully completed its initial public offering of 50.0 million shares of common stock at a public offering price of $21.00 per share and commenced trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol NYSE: CSQR.

On July 27, 2026, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase an additional 7.499 million shares at the initial public offering price. In aggregate, the offering generated approximately $1.16 billion in net proceeds after underwriting discounts and commissions.

The IPO represents a significant milestone in the Company’s evolution and strengthens its ability to execute its long-term growth strategy. As a public company, Csquare believes it is well positioned to benefit from enhanced access to capital markets, increased visibility among customers and investors, and greater strategic and financial flexibility.

The Company used the net proceeds to repay outstanding indebtedness, significantly reducing leverage and strengthening its balance sheet to support future investment opportunities.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA and FFO. Management believes these measures provide useful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operating performance, and underlying business trends.

These measures should not be considered as alternatives to financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the accompanying financial tables.

We prepare our financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, though we believe evaluating our ongoing results of operations may be difficult if limited to reviewing only GAAP financial measures. Accordingly, we use non-GAAP financial measures to supplement our evaluation of our operations.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken collectively with our U.S. GAAP financial statements, may be helpful to investors because they allow for greater transparency into what measures we use in operating our business and measuring our performance and enable comparison of financial trends and results between periods where items may vary independent of business performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Because of these limitations, our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for net (loss) income, or any other measure calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, as applicable, and should be considered together with our GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures set forth in this press release.

Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income, excluding (i) income taxes, (ii) interest expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) gain on lease modification, (v) loss on extinguishment of debt, (vi) bargain purchase gain, (vii) stock-based compensation, (viii) other income (loss), net, and (ix) transaction and other costs. Transaction and other costs consist primarily of acquisition and integration costs, restructuring costs, costs associated with our initial public offering, and employee bonuses and loan extinguishment expenses directly attributable to specific transactions. The employee bonuses and loan extinguishment costs are recorded within Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a key measure of our operating performance and to assess the results of our business excluding certain items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. In addition, we believe Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of data centers and other real estate companies. However, because Adjusted EBITDA is calculated before recurring cash charges, including interest expense and income taxes, which represent significant recurring cash charges necessary to operate our business, and is not adjusted for capital expenditures or other recurring cash requirements of our business, it should not be considered a measure of liquidity or an indicator of our cash flows and its utility as a measure of our performance is limited. Further, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash requirements or our ability to generate cash to meet those obligations. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do and, as a result, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other companies’ Adjusted EBITDA. Accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for net (loss) income or any other performance measure calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Note: Adjusted EBITDA margin excludes metered power revenue.

Funds from Operations
Management uses FFO, which is a non-GAAP financial measure commonly used in the real estate industry. This measure is used by management to evaluate performance corresponding to the retail colocation data center industry which has similarities to other real estate type companies. FFO is calculated in accordance with the standards approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts. FFO represents net (loss) income (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding, when applicable (i) loss or gain from the disposition of real estate assets, (ii) depreciation and amortization and (iii) impairment write-downs of real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity.

Management uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding the items identified in the calculation, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in utilization rates, pricing and operating costs. In addition, we believe FFO is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of data centers and other real estate companies. However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and does not capture the changes in the value of our data centers that result from use or market conditions, or the level of capital expenditures necessary to maintain the operating performance of our data centers, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our financial condition and results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. Other companies may calculate FFO differently than we do and, as a result, FFO may not be comparable to other companies’ FFO. Accordingly, FFO should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net (loss) income or any other performance measure calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA increased by $40.5 million, or 44.3%, to $132.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $91.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, and increased by $83.4 million, or 30.1%, to $360.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $277.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. This increase reflected continued improvement in operating performance across our platform, driven by growth in recurring colocation and other revenues, the impact of acquired sites, and operating leverage from our cost structure.

FFO decreased by $36.5 million, or 110%, to negative $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $33.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, and decreased by $56.2 million, or 50%, to $56.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $112.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. This decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in net loss, primarily driven by higher year-over-year interest expense resulting from the assumption of the 2021 ABS Notes in connection with the 2025 Portfolio Acquisition and interest incurred on additional ABS notes issued during the latter part of 2025, as well as from transaction and compensation costs related to our IPO. These impacts were partially offset by improved operating performance driven by growth in recurring revenue and gain on lease modification incurred during the second quarter.

The following table presents the calculation of FFO for the periods presented, with a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP metric:
