GDS Holdings (HKG:9698) affiliate DayOne is eyeing up to $1 billion in a series C fundraising, Reuters reported Friday, citing people with knowledge of the matter.
The firm could be valued at $4 billion to $5 billion before fresh capital is injected in the business which will primarily be used to support the global data center operator's growth plans in Southeast Asia and Europe, the report said.
DayOne confirmed the equity fundraising to Reuters, and said the effort was independent of GDS, the report said.
