Nextdc's (ASX:NXT) contracted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) is expected to exceed AU$1 billion as the forward order book converts to billing utilization progressively through fiscal 2030, RBC Capital Markets said in a note on Monday.

Nextdc's recent capital raising removes near-term funding risk, with pro forma liquidity increasing materially.
