Just over a month after reporting a bump in contracted data centre use, NEXTDC’s pro forma contracted utilisation has increased once again by 16MW (7%) to 244MW.
The largest increase in contracted utilisation has come from NEXTDC’s data centre under development in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (KL1), which now totals 10MW representing 15% of its planned capacity.
The KL1 facility is scheduled to go live in early calendar 2026 and is being constructed to achieve Uptime Institute Tier IV Certification for both Design and Construction.
Most of the revenue from these new customer contract wins is expected to ramp up during FY27 following the completion and commissioning of additional data halls, with the full revenue impact from these contracts will be realised from FY28 onwards.
As a result of these wins, NEXTDC’s pro forma forward order book, as of 31 May 2025, has reached a record level of 135MW2.
NEXTDC CEO and MD Craig Scroggie said KL1 represents a strategic milestone in NEXTDC’s Asia expansion and reinforces the company's commitment to delivering sovereign, AI-native digital infrastructure across high-growth regional markets.
“Securing our first 10MW hyperscale customer ahead of launch in Kuala Lumpur is a strong endorsement of our execution capability and validates KL1’s role as AI-native digital infrastructure,” he said.
“This agreement builds on what was already a record year of new contract signings in our Australian business and reflects accelerating demand for high-density, AI-optimised infrastructure across the region.”
