Depreciation expense is recorded using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives. The Company finalized its review of the estimated useful lives of its tower assets during the first quarter of 2024. The Company now has over 20 years of operating history, and determined that it should modify its current estimates for asset lives based on its historical operating experience. The Company retained an independent consultant to assist the Company in completing this review and analysis. The Company previously depreciated its towers on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the term of the underlying ground lease (including renewal options) taking into account residual value or the estimated useful life of the tower, which the Company had historically estimated to be 20 years. The Company determined that the estimated useful life of its tower assets is 30 thirty years, before taking into account residual value. Additionally, certain of the Company’s intangible assets are amortized on a similar basis to its tower assets, as the estimated useful lives of such intangible assets correlate to the useful life of the towers. The Company accounted for the changes in the useful lives as a change in accounting estimate under ASC 250 Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, which were recorded prospectively beginning on January 1, 2024. On January 1, 2024, the Company began depreciating its towers and related intangible assets on a straight-line basis over the remaining estimated useful life of the tower, taking into account the extended useful life and residual value. The extension of the asset lives (i) resulted in an approximately $ 515 million increase in the right of use asset, as additional renewal options may be included, with an offsetting adjustment made to increase the related operating lease liability and (ii) resulted in an estimated $ 730 million ($ 649 million after tax, or an increase of $ 1.39 per diluted share) decrease in depreciation and amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2024.

In addition, as of January 1, 2024, we and our subsidiaries, in principle, became subject to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (the “OECD”) Global Anti-Base Erosion Rules (the “Pillar 2 Rules”) as promulgated by jurisdictions. The Pillar 2 Rules can potentially lead to additional taxes (“Top-Up Tax”) when the effective tax rate (as defined by the Pillar 2 Rules) in a jurisdiction is below 15%. The Pillar 2 Rules, however, do not apply to “Excluded Entities” and certain subsidiaries of Excluded Entities. We are currently analyzing our qualification believe we qualify as an Excluded Entity as a “Real Estate Investment Vehicle.” In the event we certain subsidiaries do not qualify as a Real Estate Investment Vehicle, Excluded Entities, available “Safe Harbor” rules could apply that would exempt the entities from any Top-Up Taxes Tax. For 2025, the Under-Taxed Payments Rule (UTPR) Safe Harbor excludes all US income from the Pillar 2 Rules. In addition, substantially all of our non-excluded, non-U.S. jurisdictions qualify for other Safe Harbors. The remaining jurisdictions that may apply beginning not qualify would have immaterial Top-Up Taxes. Beginning in fiscal year 2026 2026, the U.S. income of non-excluded entities may result in material Top-Up Taxes; however, on our United States income and may be material. January 5, 2026, the OECD announced a comprehensive Side-by-Side Safe harbor exceptions are expected to apply for Harbor that, if enacted, would exempt U.S.-parented multinational companies from certain Top-Up Taxes under the majority of our non-United States income, and for those entities that do Pillar 2 Rules beginning January 1, 2026. The Side-by-Side Safe Harbor is not meet certain safe harbor tests, the impact to us as a whole is expected an exemption from any qualified domestic minimum Top-Up Tax. The Side-by-Side Safe Harbor has yet to be immaterial. It is noted enacted in any jurisdiction where we operate that has already implemented the Pillar 2 Rules. Additionally, the Pillar 2 Rules are still yet to be implemented enacted in most many of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Developments will be monitored as guidance and local implementation progresses.

AT&T Transaction - The Company has an agreement with SBC Communications Inc., a predecessor entity to AT&T Inc. (“AT&T”), that currently provides for the lease or sublease of approximately 1,600 towers, which commenced between December 2000 and August 2004. Substantially all of the towers are part of the Trust Securitization. The average term of the lease or sublease for all sites at the inception of the agreement was approximately 27 years, assuming renewals or extensions of the underlying ground leases for the sites. The Company has the option to purchase the sites subject to the applicable lease or sublease upon its expiration. Each tower is assigned to an annual tranche, ranging from 2013 to 2032, which represents the outside expiration date for the sublease rights to that tower. The purchase price for each site is a fixed amount stated in the lease for that site plus the fair market value of certain alterations made to the related tower by AT&T. As of December 31, 2024, 2025, the Company has purchased an aggregate of approximately 700 800 of the subleased towers which are subject to the applicable agreement, including 80 104 towers purchased during the year ended December 31, 2024 2025 for an aggregate purchase price of $ 59.1 82.0 million. The aggregate purchase option price for the remaining towers leased and subleased is $ 1.2 billion and includes per annum accretion through the applicable expiration of the lease or sublease of a site. For all such the applicable sites, AT&T has the right to continue to lease the reserved space through June 30, 2025 at the then-current subject to a monthly fee, which shall escalate in accordance with the standard master lease agreement for the remainder of AT&T’s tenancy. Thereafter, AT&T shall have the right to renew such each lease for up to five successive five-year terms.

For example, we are currently engaged in a legal dispute (the “Arbitration”) with one of our customers in Mexico, AT&T Comunicaciones Digitales, S. de R.L. de C.V. and related entities (collectively, “AT&T Mexico”). AT&T Mexico, which represented approximately $300 million of tenant revenue in 2025, is challenging the calculation of the monthly lease amount established under our Master Lease Agreement with AT&T Mexico (the “MLA”), as well as certain other provisions of the MLA, seeking rent abatement both retroactively and prospectively, and withheld certain tower rents during 2025. As previously discussed, on September 23, 2025, we and AT&T Mexico reached an agreement pursuant to which AT&T Mexico has remitted payment of the majority of the withheld tower rents and has resumed monthly payments of the majority of its owed tower rents. The remainder of the outstanding receivables and the future monthly unpaid tower rent amounts are being deposited into an irrevocable escrow account, overseen by an independent trustee, to be released in accordance with a final ruling in the Arbitration or by mutual consent of us and AT&T Mexico. We incurred approximately $30 million of reserves during the year ended December 31, 2025 related to this customer. We expect to record future reserves until the Arbitration is settled.

Additionally, our Board has approved a share repurchase program allowing us to repurchase common stock through various methods, including open market purchases. The program does not require any specific amount or number of shares to be repurchased, and management will determine timing and volume based on market conditions and other factors. Repurchases could impact stock price, liquidity and cash reserves, potentially affecting future growth opportunities. While intended to enhance long-term shareholder value, there is no guarantee of success, and short-term price fluctuations could reduce the program’s effectiveness. Additionally, our share repurchase program could diminish our available cash, which may impact our ability to finance future growth and pursue possible future strategic opportunities and acquisitions.

Strong industry tailwinds also underpin our data center business. Our portfolio of highly interconnected data center facilities and related assets in the United States is well positioned to monetize elevated demand for hybrid-cloud and multi-cloud deployments, as well as demand from early-stage AI-related workloads like inferencing, machine learning models and GPU-as-a-Service from neo clouds. We believe it is important for AI workloads to be collocated with hybrid installations. Our data center facilities are well-suited for this, as they have a rich ecosystem of network and cloud interconnections coupled with purpose-built capacity designed to support AI and other higher-density deployments. These positive trends reinforce our expectation for our data centers to deliver long-term growth with attractive returns.
