SBA Reports Mixed Financial Results Following Divestitures in South America
What happened
SBA reported that site leasing revenue reached $665.4 million, reflecting 1.4% growth driven by international expansion and domestic carrier investments. Conversely, site development revenue decreased by 36% year over year, which the company attributed to shifting carrier activity levels. The company also announced a quarterly cash dividend of $1.25 per share, marking a 13% increase from the prior year period.
