Equinix Inc. is in a late stage of discussions to acquire Axtel SAB de CV's data centers for approximately $200 million as part of its expansion plan in Mexico, Bloomberg News reported, citing people with knowledge of the matter.
The data center real estate investment trust could soon disclose a transaction for a majority interest in the Mexican telecom firm's data center business, the unnamed sources told the news outlet.
The ALFA SAB de CV unit aims to retain a minority stake in the business, the sources added.
Bloomberg could not get a comment on the matter from the involved parties.
