Filing Highlights

Financial Performance

Site rental revenues grew to $6.532 billion in 2023, up from $6.289 billion in 2022, driven by growth in both the Towers and Fiber segments. This indicates a steady demand for the company's infrastructure.

Towers site rental gross margin decreased slightly to $3.370 billion in 2023 from $3.404 billion in 2022, primarily due to higher ground lease expenses. This suggests increasing costs in the tower business.

Fiber site rental gross margin increased to $1.533 billion in 2023 from $1.317 billion in 2022, a 16% increase. This shows strong growth in the fiber business and a potential shift in focus.
