Movement Alert|American Tower Falls 3.14% in Pre-Market Trading, Post-Earnings Target Cuts Keep Pressure on Shares

Market Focus11-02

On November 2, American Tower fell 3.14% in Pre-Market Trading to $186.5, with turnover of $349.3 thousand.

The clearest recent catalyst is continued post-earnings caution from Wall Street, after JPMorgan cut its price target to $230 from $240 following the company’s third-quarter report.

American Tower reported third-quarter AFFO of $2.87 per share and revenue of $2.79 billion, both above consensus expectations. However, it narrowed full-year AFFO guidance to $11.04-$11.16 from $11.00-$11.17, trimming the top end of the range. Separately, net income fell 14.4% year over year to $781 million due to unrealized equity investment losses. Recent movement-focused coverage also noted that multiple target-price reductions after the earnings release contributed to weaker sentiment despite the quarterly beat.
