 PROFILE
American Tower's business is all about getting high. The tower management firm (formerly American Tower Systems) operates about 13,600 broadcast and communications towers, 12,600 of which it owns or leases, in the US, Canada, and Mexico. The company rents space on multi-tenant towers and rooftops to elevate antennas for wireless telecom providers and broadcasters; it also acquires sites and constructs towers. Its teleport systems, linking broadcasters with satellites, are used by TV networks, cable programmers, and voice, data, and Internet providers. Moving southward, the company has acquired the rights to build 500 towers in Brazil. Chairman, president, and CEO Steven Dodge owns 27% of American Tower.
