INTERXION HOLDING NV (NYSE:INXN), a leading European provider of carrier and cloud-neutral colocation data centre services, today announced an increase in its 2018 annual capital expenditure guidance range to €425 million to €450 million, reflecting new capacity expansions in five markets, together with land acquisitions for future expansions.

“Interxion continues to benefit from strong colocation demand dynamics across our Big 4 and Rest of Europe markets,” said David Ruberg, Interxion’s Chief Executive Officer. “Accordingly, we remain in expansion mode, while continuing to see favourable trends in pre-sold metrics led by deals signed in the Platform segment.”
