Crown Castle (CCI) Receives $102 Price Target Amid Dish Cancellation Impact

Crown Castle Inc. (NYSE: CCI) received an 'Outperform' rating and a price target of $102 from Bernstein SocGen Group. The firm forecasts low single-digit revenue growth following a slump in 2026 due to $3.5 billion in contract cancellations by Dish Network, which accounted for about 5% of Crown Castle’s total annual site rental revenue by the end of 2025. Crown Castle's earnings per site stand at $102, compared to competitors American Tower and SBA Communications at $125,000 and $107,000 respectively. The company's portfolio includes over 40,000 cell towers, and Bernstein anticipates carrier renewals will yield approximately a 3% year-over-year increase, excluding losses from Sprint and Dish.
