SBACHIGH SIGNALOPERATIONAL10-K

SBAC completed major portfolio restructuring by exiting Philippines and Colombia operations entirely while substantially expanding through acquisition of over 7,000 sites from Millicom.

This represents a significant geographic repositioning that suggests management is focusing capital on higher-return markets while divesting from regions that may have faced regulatory or operational challenges. The Millicom acquisition meaningfully expands SBAC's footprint and should provide substantial revenue synergies, though the company's tenancy ratio declined slightly to 1.8 tenants per site, indicating room for lease-up growth.
