Crown Castle International Corp. Research Report

On September 9, 2013, Crown Castle International Corp. (Crown Castle) announced that it is undertaking the necessary steps to reorganize the Company to qualify as a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) for tax purposes. Ben Moreland, Crown Castle's President and CEO, said, "We are delighted to announce this plan for conversion because we believe REIT status is the optimal structure for our business given the real estate nature of our assets. We believe a REIT structure will lower our weighted average cost of capital and provide additional opportunities for creating long-term shareholder value. Further, we expect our conversion to a REIT to have little to no effect on our operations, and we intend to continue our focus on maximizing long-term adjusted funds from operations per share through growth and disciplined capital allocation." The Company further informed that it expects to operate in compliance with the REIT rules, effective from January 1, 2014.
