American Tower Corporation Reports Second Quarter 2014 Financial Results
BOSTON --(Business Wire)--
American Tower Corporation (NYSE:AMT) today reported financial results
for the quarter ended June 30, 2014.
Jim Taiclet, American Tower's Chief Executive Officer stated, "Our
second quarter 2014 results exceeded our expectations across all key
metrics due to strong global demand for our tower space. 4G coverage and
densification initiatives by our major tenants drove Organic Core Growth
of over 11% in the U.S., and significant investment levels by tenants
internationally drove Organic Core Growth of nearly 18%. These strong
Organic Core Growth trends, in combination with contributions from new
assets, led to record AFFO per share growth in the quarter of over 29%.
We expect favorable leasing demand for communications real estate to
continue and accordingly, we are raising our full year outlook for total
rental and management revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and AFFO by $45 million,
$55 million and $30 million, respectively."

Non-GAAP and Defined Financial Measures
In addition to the results prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) provided
throughout this press release, the Company has presented the following
non-GAAP and defined financial measures: Gross Margin, Operating Profit,
Operating Profit Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, NAREIT
Funds From Operations, AFFO, AFFO per Share, Core Growth, Organic Core
Growth, New Property Core Growth and Net Leverage Ratio. The Company
uses Funds From Operations as defined by the National Association of
Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), referred to herein as NAREIT
Funds From Operations.
The Company defines Gross Margin as revenues less operating expenses,
excluding stock-based compensation expense recorded in costs of
operations, depreciation, amortization and accretion, selling, general,
administrative and development expense, and other operating expenses.
The Company defines Operating Profit as Gross Margin less selling,
general, administrative and development expense, excluding stock-based
compensation expense and corporate expenses. For reporting purposes, the
international rental and management segment Operating Profit and Gross
Margin also include interest income, TV Azteca, net. These measures of
Gross Margin and Operating Profit are also before interest income,
interest expense, loss on retirement of long-term obligations, other
income (expense), net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling
interest, income (loss) on equity method investments and income taxes.
The Company defines Operating Profit Margin as the percentage that
results from dividing Operating Profit by revenue. The Company defines
Adjusted EBITDA as net income before income (loss) from discontinued
operations, net, income (loss) from equity method investments, income
tax provision (benefit), other income (expense), loss on retirement of
long-term obligations, interest expense, interest income, other
operating income (expense), depreciation, amortization and accretion and
stock-based compensation expense. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA
Margin as the percentage that results from dividing Adjusted EBITDA by
total revenue. NAREIT Funds From Operations is defined as net income
before gains or losses from the sale or disposal of real estate, real
estate related impairment charges, real estate related depreciation,
amortization and accretion and dividends declared on preferred stock,
and including adjustments for (i) unconsolidated affiliates and (ii)
noncontrolling interest. The Company defines AFFO as NAREIT Funds From
Operations before (i) straight-line revenue and expense, (ii)
stock-based compensation expense, (iii) the non-cash portion of our tax
provision, (iv) non-real estate related depreciation, amortization and
accretion, (v) amortization of deferred financing costs, capitalized
interest, debt discounts and premiums and long-term deferred interest
charges, (vi) other income (expense), (vii) loss on retirement of
long-term obligations, (viii) other operating income (expense), and
adjustments for (ix) unconsolidated affiliates, and (x) noncontrolling
interest, less cash payments related to capital improvements and cash
payments related to corporate capital expenditures. The Company defines
AFFO per Share as AFFO divided by the diluted weighted average common
shares outstanding. The Company defines Core Growth in total rental and
management revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and AFFO as the increase or
decrease, expressed as a percentage, resulting from a comparison of
financial results for a current period with corresponding financial
results for the corresponding period in a prior year, in each case,
excluding the impact of straight-line revenue and expense recognition,
foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and significant one-time
items. The Company defines Organic Core Growth in rental and management
revenue as the increase or decrease, expressed as a percentage,
resulting from a comparison of financial results for a current period
with corresponding financial results for the corresponding period in a
prior year, in each case, excluding the impact of straight-line revenue
and expense recognition, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations,
significant one-time items and revenue associated with new properties
that the Company has added to the portfolio since the beginning of the
prior period. The Company defines New Property Core Growth in rental and
management revenue as the increase or decrease, expressed as a
percentage, on the properties the Company has added to its portfolio
since the beginning of the prior period, in each case, excluding the
impact of straight-line revenue and expense recognition, foreign
currency exchange rate fluctuations and significant one-time items. The
Company defines Net Leverage Ratio as net debt (total debt, less cash
and cash equivalents) divided by last quarter annualized Adjusted
EBITDA. These measures are not intended to replace financial performance
measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Rather, they are presented
as additional information because management believes they are useful
indicators of the current financial performance of the Company's core
businesses. The Company believes that these measures can assist in
comparing company performances on a consistent basis irrespective of
depreciation and amortization or capital structure. Depreciation and
amortization can vary significantly among companies depending on
accounting methods, particularly where acquisitions or non-operating
factors, including historical cost bases, are involved. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company's measures of Gross Margin, Operating Profit,
Operating Profit Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, NAREIT
Funds From Operations, AFFO, AFFO per Share, Core Growth, Organic Core
Growth, New Property Core Growth and Net Leverage Ratio may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Cautionary Language Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains "forward-looking statements" concerning our
goals, beliefs, expectations, strategies, objectives, plans, future
operating results and underlying assumptions, and other statements that
are not necessarily based on historical facts. Examples of these
statements include, but are not limited to statements regarding our full
year 2014 outlook, foreign currency exchange rates and our expectation
regarding the leasing demand for communications real estate. Actual
results may differ materially from those indicated in our
forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors,
including: (1) decrease in demand for our communications sites would
materially and adversely affect our operating results, and we cannot
control that demand; (2) if our tenants share site infrastructure to a
significant degree or consolidate or merge, our growth, revenue and
ability to generate positive cash flows could be materially and
adversely affected; (3) our business is subject to government
regulations and changes in current or future laws or regulations could
restrict our ability to operate our business as we currently do; (4) our
leverage and debt service obligations may materially and adversely
affect us; (5) if we fail to pay scheduled dividends on our preferred
stock, in cash or common stock, we will be prohibited from paying
dividends on our common stock, which may jeopardize our status as a
REIT; (6) increasing competition in the tower industry may materially
and adversely affect us; (7) our expansion initiatives involve a number
of risks and uncertainties that could adversely affect our operating
results, disrupt our operations or expose us to additional risk if we
are not able to successfully integrate operations, assets and personnel;
(8) our foreign operations are subject to economic, political and other
risks that could materially and adversely affect our revenues or
financial position, including risks associated with fluctuations in
foreign currency exchange rates; (9) a substantial portion of our
revenue is derived from a small number of tenants, and we are sensitive
to changes in the creditworthiness and financial strength of our
tenants; (10) we may fail to realize the growth prospects and cost
savings anticipated as a result of our acquisition of MIP Tower Holdings
LLC, the parent company of Global Tower Partners (GTP); (11) new
technologies or changes in a tenant's business model could make our
tower leasing business less desirable and result in decreasing revenues;
(12) if we fail to remain qualified as a REIT, we will be subject to tax
at corporate income tax rates, which may substantially reduce funds
otherwise available; (13) we may be limited in our ability to fund
required distributions using cash generated through our TRSs; (14)
complying with REIT requirements may limit our flexibility or cause us
to forego otherwise attractive opportunities; (15) certain of our
business activities may be subject to corporate level income tax and
foreign taxes, which reduce our cash flows and may create deferred and
contingent tax liabilities; (16) we may need additional financing to
fund capital expenditures, future growth and expansion initiatives and
to satisfy our REIT distribution requirements; (17) if we are unable to
protect our rights to the land under our towers, it could adversely
affect our business and operating results; (18) if we are unable or
choose not to exercise our rights to purchase towers that are subject to
lease and sublease agreements at the end of the applicable period, our
cash flows derived from such towers will be eliminated; (19) restrictive
covenants in the agreements related to our securitization transactions,
our credit facilities and our debt securities could materially and
adversely affect our business by limiting flexibility; (20) we may incur
goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges, which could
result in a significant reduction to our earnings; (21) our costs could
increase and our revenues could decrease due to perceived health risks
from radio emissions, especially if these perceived risks are
substantiated; (22) we could have liability under environmental and
occupational safety and health laws; and (23) our towers or data centers
may be affected by natural disasters and other unforeseen events for
which our insurance may not provide adequate coverage. For additional
information regarding factors that may cause actual results to differ
materially from those indicated in our forward-looking statements, we
refer you to the information contained in Item 1A of our Form 10-Q for
the quarter ended March 31, 2014. We undertake no obligation to update
the information contained in this press release to reflect subsequently
occurring events or circumstances.

(1) In accordance with GAAP, the Company recognizes rental and
management revenue and expense related to non-cancellable tenant and
ground lease agreements with fixed escalations on a straight-line basis,
over the applicable lease term. As a result, the Company's revenue
recognized may differ materially from the amount of cash collected per
tenant lease, and the Company's expense incurred may differ materially
from the amount of cash paid per ground lease. Additional information
regarding straight-line accounting can be found in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 in the section
entitled "Revenue Recognition," in note 1, "Business and Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies" within the notes to the consolidated
financial statements. The above table sets forth a summary of total
rental and management straight-line revenue and expense, which
represents the non-cash revenue and expense recorded due to
straight-line recognition.
