7 paragraphs in Risk Factors of the 10-K filed Feb 23, 2026 with nothing like them in the 10-K filed Mar 14, 2025. Quoted exactly. Paragraphs that were only edited are under 10-K change.
Compared with the Risk Factors in the latest 10-K of the other 29 Real estate companies: a paragraph with at least half its words the same at another company is called similar, and the companies are listed under it. A paragraph most of them have is marked boilerplate. No line means no other company has one like it. This counts text; it does not say how serious a risk is.
•If we do not continue to make appropriate investments in, and effectively implement and maintain, our information technology systems and digital capabilities, our business and operating results could be adversely affected.

On January 12, 2026, we delivered a notice of default and termination to DISH relating to our Master Lease Agreement and underlying agreements with DISH as a result of DISH failing to make required payments and defaulting on its obligations under the agreements. As a result of the termination, we assert in the notice that DISH owes us all remaining payments under these agreements, which total in excess of $3.5 billion. As of December 31, 2025, associated with our agreements with DISH, we had recorded on our consolidated balance sheet approximately $50 million within "Receivables, net" and approximately $150 million within "Deferred site rental receivables," partially offset by approximately $34 million recorded within "Deferred revenues" and "Other long-term liabilities." We expect the total net balance sheet impact of approximately $165 million will ultimately be recoverable, and accordingly no adjustments have been made to reserve such net amount as of December 31, 2025. We do not intend to recognize additional revenue under these agreements pending further developments with respect to this matter.

If we do not continue to make appropriate investments in, and effectively implement and maintain, our information technology systems and digital capabilities, our business and operating results could be adversely affected.
Our business relies on information technology ("IT") systems to support key operational, commercial, and financial processes, including site and asset management, leasing and contract administration, billing and collections, construction and supply chain activities, regulatory compliance, and financial reporting. Our industry continues to experience increasing operational complexity and growing reliance on digital tools, automation, data analytics, and integrated systems, including the use of artificial intelligence. We continue to seek to drive organizational improvement through digital transformation initiatives and modernizing our legacy IT systems.
If we do not invest in modernizing our IT systems or fail to effectively execute our digital transformation initiatives, we may experience operational inefficiencies, higher operating costs, reduced scalability, and limitations on our ability to respond to customer requirements or support deployment activity. In addition, reliance on legacy or fragmented systems may affect data accuracy, system reliability, and management’s ability to obtain timely and actionable information.
Some of our IT and digital initiatives require significant investment, which can be complex and are subject to risks, including implementation delays, cost overruns, integration challenges, and disruption to ongoing operations. Even when successfully implemented, such systems may not deliver anticipated benefits or may require ongoing investment to remain effective as technologies, customer expectations, and industry practices evolve.
If our competitors or customers adopt advanced digital capabilities more quickly than we do, we could be at a competitive disadvantage. Any failure to effectively invest in or execute our IT and digital initiatives could adversely affect our operational performance, financial results, and ability to execute our business strategy.

New in the latest 10-Q
3 paragraphs in the 10-Q filed Nov 4, 2026 with nothing like them in the 10-Q filed Aug 5, 2026 (at least half the words must differ; new numbers alone do not count). Quoted exactly, grouped by the item heading above them. This is text that changed, not a judgement of how serious it is.
Financial statements and notes
During the third quarter of 2026, the Company paid $ 275 million in connection with a modification of certain leases related to a portfolio of previously acquired towers and an extension of the tenant's lease term for those sites. The Company allocated $ 90 million to "Operating lease right-of-use assets" and $ 185 million to "Other current assets" and "Other assets, net" on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet. These allocated amounts will be amortized to "Site rental cost of operations" and as a reduction to "Site rental revenues", respectively, on the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) over the associated lease term.
