What are Wall Street analysts saying about CROWN CASTLE In/SH SH stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about CROWN CASTLE In/SH SH stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Crown Castle’s second-quarter 2018 adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) per share comfortably surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Results reflect stellar rise in site rental revenues. Also, the company has raised its outlook for 2018. Notably, the company continues to benefit from its extensive tower portfolio, high demand for infrastructure and healthy leasing activity. Further, continued efforts to diversify business from a tower operator to a fiber provider augur well for long-term growth. Also, shares of Crown Castle have outperformed its industry in the past year. Moreover, the trend in estimate revisions of current-year FFO per share indicates an impressive outlook for the company. However, consolidation in the wireless industry might reduce demand for cell tower deployments and is likely to impact its top line. Evolution of new technologies may reduce the demand for site leases and increase expenses." (7/24/2018)
- 2. Macquarie analysts commented, "We assign a slightly lower multiple to reflect the fiber business which is characterized by higher churn/lower growth vs Crown’s legacy business. Our TP goes to US$119 from US$107 based on a blended multiple of 19x our ‘19E AFFO/sh. Impact For the first time in 1+ years, results did not come in at the high-end of consensus estimates; we model 4Q AFFO/sh of US$1.06, in line with guidance. #1 As expected, ’18 guidance came in to set domestic standards for the industry. Crown was the first to give us a sneak peek into ’18 expectations which reflect 29-30%, 9-16%, and 17-20% site rental revenue, adj. EBITDA, and AFFO/sh growth (based on the mid-point of ’17 guidance). Our estimates are in line with guidance (Fig." (10/22/2017)
