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, "Shares of Crown Castle have underperformed its industry in the past three months. Moreover, the trend in estimate revisions of current-year funds from operations (FFO) per share does not indicate a favorable earnings outlook for the company. Further, customer concentration is very high for Crown Castle. 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 the expense. Nevertheless, Crown Castle continues to benefit from its extensive tower portfolio, high demand for infrastructure, healthy leasing activity, and slew of fiber-operator buyouts. The company’s efforts to diversify its business from a tower operator to a fiber provider augur well for long-term profitability." (6/20/2018)
- 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)
