According to TechFlow Research, an investor presentation released by Morgan Stanley on July 14, 2026, regarding NTT Global Data Centers shows that the global third-largest data center operator NTT surpassed the top two ranked Amazon and Microsoft through vertical integration. The order backlog reached $20 billion (equivalent to 7.7 years of revenue), with the order book absurdly full, reflecting that AI workload demand far exceeds supply. Gross margin is expected to rise from 39% in FY26 to 55% in FY31, indicating that AI customers are willing to pay a premium for high-quality capacity. NTT possesses 250 MW of liquid cooling technology globally and a complete fiber optic network, which is a vertical integration advantage that pure data center operators cannot replicate. Hyperscale customers would rather wait in line for NTT's AI-native infrastructure than turn to competitors. Among the global $6.7 trillion in data center investments, only one type truly makes money: AI-native, and NTT is monopolizing this sector.
