The design aims to align compute, power, and cooling for faster AI deployments. DayOne builds power, cooling, and base build systems as prefabricated modules in factory conditions. It says this lets it deliver data center projects in Southeast Asia in eight to 12 months. "Prefabrication and modularization are key to delivering infrastructure at the pace required by the AI era," said chief executive officer Jamie Khoo. Founded in 2022, DayOne operates across ten markets in Asia Pacific and Europe.

DayOne said to weigh options including delay, size cut for US IPO after data centre rout.

DayOne said to weigh options including delay, size cut for US IPO after data centre rout. It has not made a final decision and may still move ahead with the offering in the coming weeks Published Wed, Oct 21, 2026 · 12:28 PM * The firm initially considered raising up to US$5 billion from the listing and was eyeing a valuation of about US$20 billion. PHOTO: DAYONE [HONG KONG] DayOne Data Centers is weighing options for its US initial public offering, including a potential delay or size cut, as volatility around data centres increases, according to people familiar with the matter. While Singapore-based DayOne has been waiting for the right window to launch the IPO, it has also been considering the possibility of pushing back the share sale until the market recovers, the people said. Other options include going ahead with a smaller listing that may raise US$2.5 billion to US$3 billion, roughly half of what it had originally aimed for, the people said. DayOne, whose backers include Coatue and Hillhouse, is continuing to engage with potential investors and still wants to move forward as soon as the market allows, the people said. The company was initially considering raising as much as US$5 billion from the listing as soon as the fourth quarter, people familiar with the matter said previously. It had been eyeing a valuation of about US$20 billion, the people have said. Deliberations are ongoing and DayOne has not made any final decisions, the people said, asking not to be identified because the information is private. The business times turns 50. Five decades of milestones and moments that shaped Singapore's success story - told through our headlines. Explore BT50" The company could still opt to move ahead with the offering in the coming weeks, according to the people. DayOne declined to comment. While data centres have drawn global investor demand amid a boom in sectors related to artificial intelligence, a more negative sentiment has started to have ripple effects on IPOs. DayOne has been raising billions of dollars in private funding rounds as it seeks capital to build out its pipeline. Australian data centre company Firmus Grid pulled its roughly US$5 billion IPO when investors balked at the valuation it sought, while AirTrunk, which also operates data centres, delayed a planned real estate investment trust IPO in Singapore to 2027. South Korean digital infrastructure company Elice plunged 32 per cent in its Seoul trading debut on Tuesday. Coreweave's shares have more than halved since their May peak, and Nscale is facing pushback over its target IPO valuation, Bloomberg News has reported. On Wednesday, shares of Australian data centre operator Nextdc plummeted after it cut earnings guidance. Some investors are hoping that the recent market volatility will pass after the US midterm elections on Nov 3. They are also looking ahead to the performance of Anthropic's upcoming listing as an important gauge of sentiment towards the AI sector. DayOne filed for a US IPO earlier in October. The offering is being led by Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan Chase & Co, Bank of America and Citigroup. IFR reported on Monday that DayOne was gathering more investor feedback before launching the share sale. DayOne is running or developing data centres in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Hong Kong, Japan, Finland and Spain.

These milestones demonstrate DayOne's ability to deliver on customer commitments and execute at scale. DayOne continues to strengthen its capital base to support its growth. Arranged by a seven-lender consortium, the upsized financing of approximately US$7.2 billion in Malaysia supports the continued development of its data center platform in Johor and builds on the approximately US$3.5 billion syndicated financing the company secured in May 2025. Since 2024, the company has raised over US$6 billion in equity across several financing rounds, alongside project financing from a broad roster of more than 30 local and global banking partners.

Across its ten-market footprint, DayOne's Resources [5]] reached 4.6GW [1]], up from 2GW at the end of 2025.

7-Lender consortium arranges expanded multi-currency financing for DayOne's data centre development in Johor.

7-Lender consortium arranges expanded multi-currency financing for DayOne's data centre development in Johor. * 2026 * 13 Oct 2026 * 3 mins read The digital infrastructure financing will support the next phase of hyperscale data centre growth in Malaysia Singapore, 13 October 2026 - A consortium of seven lenders comprising CIMB, Crédit Agricole CIB, DBS, Maybank, OCBC, Standard Chartered and UOB has successfully arranged an expanded multi-currency financing for DayOne to support the continued development of its data centre platform in Johor, Malaysia. The financing consists of an additional USD2.4 billion offshore term loan facility and RM5.5 billion Murabahah facility, totalling RM15 billion. Together with the RM15 billion multi-currency financing secured in 2025, the financing platform now totals RM30 billion, reinforcing DayOne's commitment to expanding hyperscale data centre capacity in Johor. As demand for cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI) and digital services continues to accelerate, the development of scalable and resilient digital infrastructure will play a critical role in strengthening regional connectivity and supporting economic growth. The additional financing will fund the next phase of capacity development across the DayOne platform, helping to meet this growing demand and support the continued development of digital infrastructure in the region. The facility was arranged by a consortium of Mandated Lead Arrangers, Bookrunners and Joint Coordinators comprising CIMB, Crédit Agricole CIB, DBS, Maybank, OCBC, Standard Chartered and UOB, reflecting strong financing confidence in the development of digital infrastructure in Malaysia and the broader region. Mr Edmund Leong, Head of Group Corporate Banking, UOB, said, "As DayOne's primary relationship bank, UOB is supporting the infrastructure that will underpin ASEAN's next phase of growth. The rapid build-out of AI, cloud computing and digital infrastructure is creating one of the most significant investment opportunities the region has seen in decades, requiring not only capital but also strong ecosystems, connectivity and long-term partnerships. Leveraging our extensive ASEAN network, UOB is well positioned to connect capital, infrastructure and growth opportunities, helping clients seize the opportunities emerging from the region's accelerating digital transformation." The transaction also reinforces Malaysia's position as a leading regional digital infrastructure hub. Johor has attracted significant investment in data centre development, supported by its strong connectivity, robust infrastructure, access to skilled talent and proximity to regional markets. This will contribute to the development of a resilient digital economy and strengthen Southeast Asia's role as a key destination for technology investment and innovation. Since its establishment in 2022, DayOne has rapidly expanded its footprint across Asia and Europe, with a presence in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Japan, Hong Kong SAR, Finland and Spain.
