Key Takeaways:

American Tower is investing in AST SpaceMobile to fill coverage gaps and collaborating with operators for low-band spectrum access. They are also pursuing MSS spectrum and preparing for upcoming auctions.
- Future Outlook: Spectrum auctions, particularly for key bands like the upper C band, are crucial for American Tower’s strategy. The company anticipates that 5G rollout will accelerate with new tax incentives, and 6G integration is envisioned to merge telecommunications and computing at the edge.
