CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 for SBA Communications Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”). These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, therefore, omit or condense certain footnotes and other information normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and deferrals) considered necessary for fair financial statement presentation have been made. The results of operations for an interim period may not give a true indication of the results for the full year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The significant estimates made by management relate to the allowance for doubtful accounts, the costs and revenue relating to the Company’s construction contracts, stock-based compensation assumptions, valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets, fair value of long-lived assets, the useful lives of towers and intangible assets, anticipated property tax assessments, incremental borrowing rate for lease accounting, fair value of investments, asset retirement obligations, uncertain tax positions, and accounting for acquisitions of assets. Management develops estimates based on historical experience and on various assumptions about the future that are believed to be reasonable based on the information available. These estimates ultimately may differ from actual results and such differences could be material.
Foreign Currency Translation
All assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries that do not utilize the U.S. dollar as its functional currency are translated at period-end exchange rates, while revenues and expenses are translated at monthly average exchange rates during the period. Unrealized translation gains and losses are reported as foreign currency translation adjustments through Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net in the Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Deficit.
For foreign subsidiaries where the U.S. dollar is the functional currency, monetary assets and liabilities of such subsidiaries, which are not denominated in U.S. dollars, are remeasured at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are remeasured at monthly average rates prevailing during the year. Remeasurement gains and losses are reported as Other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations .
Intercompany Loans Subject to Remeasurement
In accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters , the Company remeasures foreign denominated intercompany loans with the corresponding change in the balance being recorded in Other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as settlement is anticipated or planned in the foreseeable future. The Company recorded a $ 10.1 million gain and a $ 36.0 million gain, net of taxes, on the remeasurement of intercompany loans for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company made no repayments under its intercompany loan agreements. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the aggregate amount outstanding under the intercompany loan agreements subject to remeasurement with the Company’s foreign subsidiaries was $ 917.4 million and $ 917.3 million, respectively.
Accounting Standards Updates
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software , modernizing the accounting for costs related to internal-use software. The standard removed the development stage model and requires entities to begin capitalizing software costs when management authorizes and commits to funding the software project and when it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used for its intended purposes. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has elected to adopt the standard as of
7
Table of Contents
January 1, 2026. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses , requiring improved expense disclosures, in the notes to the financial statements, of public business entities to provide more detailed information about certain costs and expenses. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures .
2. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis — The Company’s asset retirement obligations are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs and are recorded in Other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the asset retirement obligations is calculated using a discounted cash flow model .
Refer to Note 16 for discussion of the Company’s redeemable noncontrolling interests.
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis — The Company estimates the fair value of assets subject to impairment using a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) (Level 3 input) analysis. Determining fair value requires the exercise of significant judgments, including the amount and timing of expected future cash flows, long-term growth rates, discount rates and relevant comparable earnings and trading multiples. The cash flows employed in the DCF analysis are based on estimates of future revenues, earnings, and cash flows after considering factors such as tower location demographics, timing of additions of new tenants, lease rates, rate and term of renewal, attrition, ongoing cash requirements, and market multiples. Each of the assumptions are applied based on the specific facts and circumstances of the identified assets at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows. The DCF analysis used an average discount rate ranging from 6.9 % - 8.0 %.
Asset impairment and decommission costs for all periods presented and the related impaired assets primarily relate to the Company’s site leasing operating segment. The following summarizes the activity of asset impairment and decommission costs:

(1) Represents impairment charges resulting from the Company’s regular analysis of whether the anticipated future cash flows from certain towers are sufficient to recover the carrying value of the investment in those towers .
The Company’s long-term investments were $ 21.7 million and $ 21.1 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and are recorded in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The estimation of the fair value of its investments involves the use of Level 3 inputs. The Company evaluates these investments for indicators of impairment. The Company considers impairment indicators such as negative changes in industry and market conditions, financial performance, business prospects, and other relevant events and factors. If indicators exist and the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying amount, an impairment charge will be recorded. The Company did no t recognize any impairment loss associated with its investments during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or 2025.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments — The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, restricted cash, accounts payable, and short-term investments approximate their estimated fair values due to the short maturity of these instruments. The Company’s estimate of its short-term investments is based primarily upon Level 1 reported market values. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $ 112.1 million and $ 6.6 million of short-term investments, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company purchased $ 723.4 million and sold $ 618.0 million of short-term
8
Table of Contents
investments. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company purchased $ 227.0 million and sold $ 415.8 million of short-term investments.
The Company determines fair value of its debt instruments utilizing various Level 2 sources including quoted prices and indicative quotes (non-binding quotes) from brokers that require judgment to interpret market information including implied credit spreads for similar borrowings on recent trades or bid/ask prices. The fair value of the Revolving Credit Facility is considered to approximate the carrying value because the Company does not believe its credit risk has changed materially from the date the applicable Term SOFR Rate was set for the Revolving Credit Facility ( 112.5 to 150.0 basis points). Refer to Note 10 for the principal balances, fair values, and carrying values of the Company’s debt instruments.
For discussion of the Company’s derivatives and hedging activities, refer to Note 17.
3. CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS, AND RESTRICTED CASH
The cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash balances on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows consist of the following:

Pursuant to the terms of the Tower Securities (see Note 10), the Company is required to establish a securitization escrow account, held by the indenture trustee, into which all rents and other sums due on the towers that secure the Tower Securities are directly deposited by the lessees. These restricted cash amounts are used to fund reserve accounts for the payment of (1) debt service costs, (2) ground rents, real estate and personal property taxes and insurance premiums related to towers, (3) trustee and servicing expenses, and (4) management fees. The restricted cash in the securitization escrow account in excess of required reserve balances is subsequently released to the Borrowers (as defined in Note 10) monthly, provided that the Borrowers are in compliance with their debt service coverage ratio and that no event of default has occurred. All monies held by the indenture trustee are classified as restricted cash on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Payment and performance bonds relate primarily to collateral requirements for tower construction currently in process by the Company. Other restricted cash includes $ 47.0 million and $ 155.8 million of cash held by a qualified intermediary for the Company’s like-kind exchange transaction as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Cash is pledged as collateral related to surety bonds issued for the benefit of the Company or its affiliates in the ordinary course of business and primarily related to the Company’s tower removal obligations. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $ 43.3 million in surety and payment and performance bonds for which no collateral was required to be posted. The Company periodically evaluates the collateral posted for its bonds to ensure that it meets the minimum requirements. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had pledged $ 3.0 million and $ 2.9 million, respectively, as collateral related to its workers’ compensation policy.

13. INCOME TAXES
The primary reason for the difference between the Company’s effective tax rate and the U.S. statutory rate is the Company’s REIT status. A tax provision is recognized because U.S. taxable REIT subsidiary and certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company have profitable operations or are in a net deferred tax liability position.
The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2016. As a REIT, the Company generally will be entitled to a deduction for dividends that it pays, and therefore, not subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on that portion of its net income that it distributes to its shareholders. As a REIT, the Company will continue to pay U.S. federal income tax on earnings, if any, from assets and operations held through its U.S. taxable REIT subsidiary. These assets and operations currently consist primarily of the Company’s site development services and its international operations. The Company’s international operations continue to be subject, as applicable, to foreign taxes in the jurisdictions in which those operations are located. The Company may also be subject to a variety of taxes, including payroll taxes and state, local, and foreign income, property, and other taxes on its assets and operations. The Company’s determination as to the timing and amount of future dividend distributions will be based on a number of factors, including REIT distribution requirements, its existing federal net operating losses (“NOLs”) of approximately $ 366.2 million as of December 31, 2025, the Company’s financial condition, earnings, debt covenants, and other possible uses of such funds. The Company may use these NOLs to offset its REIT taxable income, and thus any required distributions to shareholders may be reduced or eliminated until such time as the NOLs have been fully utilized .
The Company is subject to income tax and other taxes in the geographic areas where it holds assets or operates, and the Company periodically receives notifications of audits, assessments, or other actions by taxing authorities. In certain jurisdictions, taxing authorities may issue notices and assessments that may not be reflective of the actual tax liability for which the Company will ultimately be liable. In the process of responding to assessments of taxes that the Company believes are not reflective of the Company’s actual tax liability, the Company avails itself of both administrative and judicial remedies. The Company evaluates the circumstances of each notification or assessment based on the information available and, in those instances in which the Company does not anticipate a successful defense of positions taken in its tax filings, a liability is recorded in the appropriate amount based on the underlying assessment.
In connection with a current assessment in Brazil, the taxing authorities have issued income tax deficiencies related to purchase accounting adjustments for tax years 2017 through 2020. In addition, the taxing authorities have issued income tax deficiencies related to the deductibility of foreign exchange losses on the Company’s intercompany loan for the 2020 tax year. The Company disagrees with these assessments and is appealing with the higher appellate taxing authorities. The Company estimates that there is a more likely than not probability that the Company’s position will be sustained upon appeal. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded. The Company will continue to vigorously contest the adjustments and expects to exhaust all administrative and judicial remedies necessary to resolve the matters, which could be a lengthy process. There can be no assurance that these matters will be resolved in the Company’s favor, and an adverse outcome, or any future tax examinations involving similar assertions, could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows in any one period. As of March 31, 2026, the Company estimates the aggregate range of reasonably possible losses in excess of amounts accrued to be between zero and $ 114.1 million, excluding penalties and interest of $ 184.4 millio n.

The Company’s site leasing business includes two reportable segments, domestic site leasing and international site leasing. The Company’s business segments are strategic business units that offer different services. They are managed separately based on the fundamental differences in their operations. The site leasing segment includes results of the managed and sublease businesses. The site development segment includes the results of both consulting and construction related activities. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The Company’s CODM utilizes segment operating profit and operating income as his two measures of segment profit in assessing performance and allocating resources at the reportable segment level. The Company has applied the aggregation criteria to operations within the international site leasing segment on a basis that is consistent with management’s review of information and performance evaluations of the individual markets in this region.
Revenues, cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation, accretion and amortization), capital expenditures (including assets acquired through the issuance of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock) and identifiable assets pertaining to the segments in which the Company continues to operate are presented below.

15. EARNINGS PER SHARE
B asic earnings per share was computed by dividing net income attributable to SBA Communications Corporation by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding for each respective period. Diluted earnings per share was calculated by dividing net income attributable to SBA Communications Corporation by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding adjusted for any dilutive Class A common stock equivalents, including unvested RSUs, PSUs, and shares issuable upon exercise of stock options as determined under the Treasury Stock method .
The following table sets forth basic and diluted net income per common share attributable to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the diluted weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excluded an immaterial number of shares issuable related to the Company’s RSUs, PSUs, and stock options because the impact would be anti-dilutive.
16. REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS
The Company allocates income and losses to its redeemable noncontrolling interest holders based on the applicable membership interest percentage. At each reporting period, the redeemable noncontrolling interest is recognized at the greater of (1) the initial carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest as adjusted for accumulated income or loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest holder or (2) the redemption value as of the balance sheet date. Adjustments to the carrying amount of redeemable noncontrolling interest are charged against retained earnings (or additional paid-in capital if there are no retained earnings ). The fair value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest is estimated using Level 3 inputs.
The components of redeemable noncontrolling interests as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are as follows:

17. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company enters into interest rate swaps to hedge the future interest expense from variable rate debt and reduce the Company’s exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. As of March 31, 2026, the Company has interest rate swap agreements on its 2024 Term Loan which swap $ 2.0 billion of notional value accruing interest at one month Term SOFR plus 175 basis points for a blended all-in fixed rate of 5.165 % per annum through April 11, 2028.
On September 11, 2024, the Company entered into a treasury lock agreement to fix the three-year treasury rate at 3.3985 % for $ 620.0 million of notional value related to the 2024-2C Tower Securities issued on October 11, 2024. The treasury lock agreement was terminated and settled upon issuance of the 2024-2C Tower Securities, and the Company recognized an $ 8.2 million gain in other comprehensive income (loss) which is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the 2024-2C Tower Securities. After consideration of the treasury lock agreement, the all-in fixed rate on the 2024-2C Tower Securities is 4.654 % per annum.
As of March 31, 2026, all hedges remain highly effective; therefore, changes in fair value are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net. The table below outlines the effects of the Company’s interest rate swaps on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
