Digital Realty Trust filed a Form 8-K and a prospectus supplement on October 30 registering the resale of 3,425,031 shares of its common stock that were issued as consideration in its acquisition of approximately 16 percent of the interests in its Teraco joint venture. The shares were issued on October 20, 2026 under a share purchase agreement with Digital Titan 2 (PTY) LTD and TDE Luxco, after certain third party partners in the venture exercised a put right, and the closing lifted Digital Realty’s ownership to approximately 77 percent of the ordinary shares in TDE Investments (Pty) Ltd, which owns Teraco Data Environments Proprietary Limited of South Africa. The registration does not necessarily mean any shares will be sold: the selling stockholders receive all proceeds from any resale, Digital Realty receives none, and the company pays the registration expenses under the purchase agreement.
Digital Realty registers Teraco deal shares for resale
Digital Realty has registered the resale of 3,425,031 common shares it issued as consideration for about 16 percent of TDE Investments, the owner of South Africa's Teraco, a closing that lifted its stake to about 77 percent.
Why it matters: The filing completes the paper trail on Digital Realty's buy-in of its South African joint venture partners: the company now holds about 77 percent of the Teraco owner, and the former partners hold registered stock they can sell into the market instead of an illiquid private stake.
Data as of Digital Realty Trust, Inc. Form 8-K filed October 30, 2026 (accession 0001193125-26-441892) and its prospectus supplement on Form 424B7 filed the same day (accession 0001193125-26-441889), both read in full in this run. Every figure is the filings' own; no third party reporting is used.
