HERNDON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- EdgeConneX ®, a pioneer in global Build-to-Suit and Build-to-Density data center solutions, is proud to announce an impactful partnership with River Partners, a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to ecological restoration and climate resilience and thriving communities along major rivers across California. The new partnership supports River Partners' Hidden Valley Ranch project in the heart of California's San Joaquin Valley, transforming approximately 350 acres of former dairy farmland into a vibrant, restored ecosystem that supports both people and the environment.
'At EdgeConneX, sustainability is not just a goal but a responsibility. We're proud to work with River Partners to foster a greener, more resilient future."
This initiative will rejuvenate flood-prone land by planting nearly 80,000 native plants and trees, replacing water-intensive crops with vegetation that fosters biodiversity while significantly reducing water usage. Over the next three years, irrigation pumps will be phased out, further conserving water in a region where it is critically needed. The project will also expand habitat for native wildlife, including endangered salmon and monarch butterflies, while mitigating flood risks along California's second-largest river.
"At EdgeConneX, sustainability is not just a goal but a responsibility. The Hidden Valley Ranch project epitomizes our commitment to our Customers, People, Planet mission, showcasing how corporate and nonprofit partnerships can create lasting environmental and community benefits. We're proud to work with River Partners to foster a greener, more resilient future." - Andrew Brodeur, Vice President, National Real Estate and Sustainability Team Leader - EdgeConneX
Since its founding in 1998, River Partners has nearly 20,000 acres of critical river landscapes across California and has the largest on-the-ground river-restoration footprint in the West. The Hidden Valley Ranch project contributes to its legacy of providing cost-effective, natural solutions with a suite of natural-resource and community benefits to pressing challenges, including climate adaptation, water management, and community resilience.
"Restoring ecosystems like Hidden Valley Ranch is key to revitalizing California's water, wildlife, and communities from the growing climate impacts that we're witnessing every day. Collaborations like this one with EdgeConneX are essential to scaling real solutions that create immediate and enduring benefits for people and wildlife alike." - Julie Rentner, President - River Partners
Beyond ecological restoration, the project is expected to boost the local economy, create good-paying restoration jobs, and foster tourism linked to the revitalized San Joaquin River ecosystem. Residents will also benefit from enhanced recreational opportunities and a healthier environment, demonstrating that sustainability initiatives can deliver tangible benefits for communities.
The Hidden Valley Ranch Project exemplifies EdgeConneX approach to marrying innovation with responsibility, making meaningful contributions to the regions where it operates. Collaborative efforts like this are crucial as California confronts the challenges of climate change and the need for sustainable water and habitat management.

Words like 'believe,' 'expect' and 'anticipate' mean that these are our best estimates as of this writing, but that there can be no assurances that expected or anticipated results or events will actually take place, so our actual future results could differ significantly from those statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: our ability to maintain our competitive advantages, the general economics of the financial industry, our ability to finance growth, our ability to identify and close acquisitions on terms favorable to the Company, and a sustainable market. Further information on our risk factors is contained in our quarterly and annual reports as filed on our website and on Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures Net income attributable to the Company excluding the effect of unrealized (loss) gain from equity securities and digital assets is net (loss) income attributable to the Company exclusive of unrealized (losses) gains from equity securities and digital assets, net of tax. Net (loss) income attributable to the Company is the GAAP measure most closely comparable to net income attributable to the Company excluding the effect of unrealized (loss) gain from equity securities and digital assets. Management uses net (loss) income attributable to the Company excluding the effect of unrealized (loss) gain from equity securities and digital assets, along with other measures, to gauge the Company's performance and evaluate results, which can be skewed when including unrealized (loss) gain from equity securities and digital assets, which may vary significantly between periods. Net (loss) income attributable to the Company excluding the effect of unrealized (loss) gain from equity securities is provided as supplemental information, and is not a substitute for net (loss) income attributable to the Company and does not reflect the Company's overall profitability. The following table reconciles the net (loss) income attributable to the Company excluding the effect of unrealized (loss) gain from equity securities and digital assets to net (loss) income attributable to the Company for the periods indicated:
