WASHINGTON, April 7, 2026 – Tower Company SBA Communications is mulling a potential sale after receiving “preliminary takeover interest,” Bloomberg reported Thursday, citing people familiar with the matter. The outlet said SBA was working with advisers to evaluate its options and that “large infrastructure funds have been circling” the company.

SBA stock was down more than three percent Tuesday afternoon but up about 20 percent since Thursday morning.

“The appeal of tower leasing to long-term, patient capital – infrastructure, pension, insurance – is obvious: it’s a highly durable business model with predictable cash flows supported by secular growth in wireless traffic,” MoffettNathanson founder Craig Moffett wrote in an investor note.
