For Q1 2026, site rental revenues from continuing operations were $961 million versus $1.011 billion a year earlier, a 4.9% decline driven mainly by DISH Wireless terminations, Sprint‑related cancellations and lower straight‑line and prepaid rent amortization. Adjusted EBITDA fell to $675 million from $722 million, while AFFO declined to $446 million, or $1.02 per share, from $479 million, or $1.10 per share, a 7% drop. Net income swung to $151 million from a loss of $464 million, largely due to a smaller loss associated with the pending Fiber Business sale.
The company reiterated its 2026 guidance, including site rental revenues of $3.828–$3.873 billion, net income of $640–$920 million, and AFFO of $1.895–$1.945 billion, or $4.38–$4.49 per share. Management still expects Organic Contribution to Site Rental Billings of about $130 million, or roughly low‑single‑digit percentage growth excluding DISH and Sprint impacts, offset by $240 million of 2026 revenue headwinds from those terminations. Following the expected mid‑2026 close of the $8.5 billion Fiber Business sale, Crown Castle plans to repay approximately $7 billion of debt and repurchase about $1 billion of shares, supporting its investment‑grade balance sheet while it continues paying a quarterly dividend of $1.0625 per share.
