SWI Group Strengthens Digital Presence with Acquisition in the US Data Center Sector
SWI Group Expands Digital Footprint
In a bold move toward strengthening its position in the digital infrastructure arena, SWI Group, listed on the Euronext Amsterdam, has recently announced its acquisition plans for a significant stake in a U.S.-based data center company. This acquisition, valued at USD 330 million, marks a pivotal step in the company's strategy to enhance its digital footprint across global markets.
On February 19, 2026, SWI Group revealed through its fully owned subsidiary that it had entered into a binding agreement to acquire additional interests in digital infrastructure. This follows an earlier announcement where SWI Digital exercised its option to acquire all shares of a private holding company managing similar digital assets for USD 170 million. Upon completion of both transactions, the SWI Group expects to hold 77.2% of the liquidation preference on its preferred share classes as well as approximately 38.3% of the total shareholding in the company.
The acquisitions are set to take place subject to regulatory approvals and various closing conditions, procedures that remain confidential at this time. This significant expansion aligns with SWI Group’s strategic vision to deepen its investment in sectors that are not only lucrative but also pivotal to the future of digital economies.
