CBRE to buy data centre services firm Onnec for $610M, with deal worth up to $1B

CBRE Group has agreed to buy London-based Onnec Group for an initial £460 million (about $610 million) in cash. The deal expands CBRE's data center infrastructure services in Europe and Asia Pacific. A multi-year earnout of up to £300 million (about $400 million) depends on Onnec meeting growth targets. That could lift the total value to about $1 billion. Founded in 1986, Onnec employs about 800 people and serves hyperscale technology companies. It is expected to generate about £370 million ($498 million) in revenue and more than £50 million ($67 million) in core EBITDA in 2027. "CBRE is pursuing an explicit strategy to build a global infrastructure services business to complement our real estate services business," said chief operating officer Vikram Kohli. The deal is expected to close around the end of 2026, subject to regulatory approvals.
