New York – September 12, 2026 -- Host Digital Infrastructure LLC has secured a 15-year take-or-pay lease for approximately 43 megawatts of critical IT load, worth roughly $1.25 billion over its base term, ahead of a reverse merger that will take the company public through Healthy Choice Wellness Corp. (NYSE American: HCWC).
Host Digital Secures 43 MW Lease Worth $1.25 Billion Before Public Listing
The lease, signed August 7, 2026, covers an existing northeast Oklahoma facility of nearly 80,000 square feet with load already above 45 megawatts. Annual rent escalators apply, and delivery to the tenant is expected in the first half of 2027, with no revenue recognized under the lease to date. The agreement is expected to carry a backstop from a U.S.-based, investment-grade global technology company; total contracted revenue could reach approximately $3.2 billion if all renewal options across a possible 30-year term are exercised.
Power-Constrained Grid Queues Redefine Data Center Site Value
Allied Market Research pegs the global data center market at $187.35 billion in 2020, growing to roughly $517.17 billion by 2030. MarketsandMarkets projects the hyperscale segment alone expanding from $162.79 billion in 2024 to $608.54 billion by 2030, a 24.6% compound annual growth rate. JLL research describes a $3 trillion infrastructure supercycle through 2030, with roughly 100 gigawatts of new capacity needed between 2026 and 2030 -- a pipeline constrained less by capital than by multi-year grid interconnection queues. Host Digital's model targets sites of 20 MW to 100 MW with power available now or near-term, a tier too small for gigawatt hyperscale developers and too large for most regional operators.
