Financial Performance

3 Insights

Total revenues increased to $664.248 million, a 3.4% increase compared to $657.862 million in the same period last year. The growth was primarily driven by a 62.4% increase in site development revenue, while domestic site leasing revenue saw a slight decrease of 0.1%.

Operating income increased to $334.910 million from $323.358 million in the prior year, primarily due to decreases in depreciation, accretion, amortization expense, and selling, general and administrative expenses. However, domestic site leasing operating profit decreased slightly.

Net income increased to $217.906 million from $154.543 million in the prior year, primarily due to increases in other income, net, domestic site leasing operating income, and site development operating income. However, the increase was partially offset by higher income taxes and interest expense.
