Track AMT free→Warn: Primary pillar under pressure — Revenue grows at least 3% per year: 6.8% vs 7%.
American Tower owns many wireless towers in many countries. Revenue grew 6.8% last quarter. The company raised 2026 revenue guidance to about $10.7 billion. It has a strong position in a growing market.
Revenue growth could slow below 3%. Management is behind on capital allocation. Legal issues with DISH Wireless may hurt business. Profit growth may weaken if problems worsen.
The price is about 6% below our fair value near $175. Analysts expect about 3% revenue growth. Our fair value is 16% below the Street median, showing cautious optimism.
