Akanda (AKAN) and subsidiary First Towers & Fiber Corp. collected their first cash lease payment in August 2026 from a new 200‑kilometer fiber network in Mexico, marking the shift from construction to recurring revenue generation.
Technical delivery of the fiber network is progressing ahead of expectations, with only a few kilometers awaiting client sign-off and full operational acceptance targeted before December 2026. The initial deployment is described as strategically valuable for the client’s regional coverage, and FTF is in discussions to add more fiber kilometers to expand the joint network footprint. All 28 cellular tower sites remain 100% active and continue to generate steady recurring lease income, supporting the company’s transition toward a telecommunications infrastructure revenue model.
Akanda (NASDAQ: AKAN) announced operational progress at its wholly owned Mexican subsidiary First Towers & Fiber. FTF now operates 28 fully functional cellular tower sites under a passive infrastructure leasing model serving multiple network providers.
The company has completed installation of a 200-kilometer fiber optic network. The first 100 kilometers have been accepted by a network provider and entered the billing phase, with initial lease cash flow expected in August/September 2026. The remaining 100 kilometers are scheduled for client acceptance by December 2026, with the entire network projected to reach full commercial run-rate cash flow from January 2027.
The fiber rollout also represents a regional expansion into Guanajuato, particularly the Irapuato-Silao industrial corridor, which Akanda believes enhances FTF’s presence and service reach for telecom providers in this key market.
