Frequently asked questions
What is Crown Castle's revenue?
Crown Castle's trailing twelve-month revenue is $4.21B, and consensus projects about $4.55B by 2030. Revenue is the top line the whole model builds on, and at this scale the question shifts from how fast it grows to whether margins hold as it compounds.
How profitable is CCI?
In its most recent fiscal year, CCI ran a gross margin of 66.07%, an operating margin of 48.75%, and a net margin of 10.41%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.
How much free cash flow does CCI generate?
CCI produced $2.88B in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.
Is CCI's balance sheet healthy?
CCI holds $269.00M in cash and equivalents against $21.55B in long-term debt, on $-1.64B of shareholder equity. That debt is best read against the cash flow the business throws off each year.
