Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On September 3, 2025, Steven O. Vondran, the President and Chief Executive Officer of American Tower Corporation (the “Company”) attended the Citi 2025 Global TMT Conference where he participated in a “fireside chat” and one-on-one meetings with industry analysts and investors. Mr. Vondran mentioned that one of the Company’s customers in Mexico, AT&T Comunicaciones Digitales, S. de R.L. de C.V. and related entities (collectively, “AT&T Mexico”), and the Company are engaged in a legal dispute and that AT&T Mexico, which represented approximately $300 million of tenant revenue in 2024, has been withholding tower rents since the start of 2025. The Company incurred approximately $10 million of reserves in the second quarter of 2025 related to this customer, and if AT&T Mexico continues to withhold payment, the Company would likely incur additional reserves going forward. Mr. Vondran noted that the Company has valid defenses against AT&T Mexico’s claims, is vigorously defending the full enforceability of its Master Lease Agreement with AT&T Mexico (the “MLA”) and remains confident in the terms and conditions of the MLA. The arbitration is scheduled for a hearing in August 2026.
Separately, Mr. Vondran discussed the Company’s relationship with DISH Network Corporation (“DISH”), noting that DISH represents approximately 2% of the Company’s total annual property revenue and approximately 4% of the Company’s total annual U.S. & Canada property revenue, and the Company and DISH have a Master Lease Agreement that was signed in 2021 and expires in 2036.
