About Crown Castle

Crown Castle owns and leases roughly 40,000 cell towers in the United States. It leases space on its towers to wireless service providers, which install equipment to support their wireless networks. The company has a very concentrated customer base, with about 75% of its revenue from the Big Three US mobile carriers: Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T. Crown has announced plans to divest its fiber business, which is expected to be finalized in 2026. After that, it will be a stand-alone tower operator. Crown Castle operates as a real estate investment trust.

What the Analysts think about Crown Castle

Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Crown Castle stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

S&P Global Ratings highlighted that, as a standalone pure-play tower company, Crown Castle’s U.S. tower operations are characterized by high margins, long-term contracts with annual escalators, and significant entry barriers, providing highly predictable cash flows (Reuters).
Moody’s affirmed its Baa3 senior unsecured rating for Crown Castle, citing the company’s predictable operating cash flow from long-term leases, solid fixed-charge coverage, and strong liquidity profile (Reuters).
Fitch expects the towers-only segment’s revenue to grow in the low-to-mid single digits and its EBITDA margins to expand from the low 60% range to the high 60% range post-divestiture, underscoring the business’s capital-light and high-margin nature (Reuters).
S&P Global Ratings placed Crown Castle’s senior unsecured debt on CreditWatch Negative due to a post-divestiture leverage target of 6.0–6.5x EBITDA, exceeding its downgrade threshold and increasing the risk of a credit rating cut (Reuters).
Fitch Ratings warned that Crown Castle’s aggressive capital return policy, including a $3 billion share buyback program and a 32% dividend reduction, heightens near-term credit risk amid elevated leverage (Reuters).
Fitch also noted the pending sale of the fiber and small cell segments, which accounted for roughly one-third of revenue and 26% of operating profit, will reduce revenue diversification and concentrate business risk in the towers segment (Reuters).
