CCI Stock Forecast & Price Target
CCI Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Crown Castle anticipates a consistent organic growth rate of 4.5% in 2025, driven by higher lease and amendment applications as mobile carriers increase capacity to support their 5G networks. The company's tower organic growth for the full year met management's expectations at 4.5%, and despite challenges related to Sprint cancellations, the stock indicated a positive market response, reflecting investor confidence. Additionally, with projected organic billings of $3.885 billion to $3.915 billion, the growth outlook remains strong, indicating a resilient revenue trajectory in the coming years.
Bears say
Crown Castle has reported a decline in tower site rental revenue, with figures at $1.07 billion, which is a year-over-year decrease of 0.8%, and its EBITDA and AFFO per share fell short of consensus expectations. The company is facing multiple headwinds, including rising interest rates, macroeconomic weakness potentially affecting enterprise spending, and a slowdown in 5G deployment, compounded by increased consolidation among its primary customers, the Big Three mobile carriers. Additionally, the anticipated sale of its fiber and small cell business for $8.5 billion was below expectations and reflects a strategic shift that could dilute valuations, further intensifying the challenges for the company as it transitions to being a standalone tower operator.
