what happened

American Tower (AMT) raised its full-year 2026 guidance for adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) and property revenue when it reported third-quarter results on Tuesday. The company now expects AFFO of $11.04 to $11.16 per share and property revenue of $10.785 billion to $10.865 billion. Its previous outlook was AFFO of $11.00 to $11.17 per share and revenue of $10.695 billion to $10.845 billion.

The company also spent $315 million on share repurchases during the quarter. After quarter end, its board authorized an additional $2.0 billion for future buybacks. In pre-market trading on the NYSE, AMT was at $187.00, down $1.45, or 0.77 percent.

why it matters

The higher AFFO outlook points to steady growth in the tower portfolio and a contribution from the data center business. For the market, it signals that operating results are running ahead of expectations, although the pre-market share reaction was negative. The size of the new buyback authorization matters to investors tracking how the company allocates capital.
