SBA Communications Reports Solid Q2 2026 FFO, Raises Dividend 13%

SBA Communications Corp delivered solid second-quarter 2026 results, posting funds from operations of $3.05 per share and increasing its quarterly dividend by 13% to $1.25 per share. The company issued $3.5 billion in investment-grade bonds, reducing secured debt below 50% and strengthening balance sheet flexibility, and plans to resume share buybacks in the second half of the year, citing current valuations as a low-risk, high-return opportunity. International new tower builds accelerated to 99 in the quarter, up from 75 in the first quarter, while U.S. leasing activity is expected to be lower in the second half. The FCC's stricter buildout requirements for the upper C-band spectrum auction are seen as a long-term organic growth driver, and about half of the U.S. portfolio is suited for edge data centers. International churn remains elevated due to carrier consolidations and bankruptcies, particularly in Brazil, and the company faces ongoing litigation with EchoStar over lease payment claims.
