Boston, Massachusetts – February 20, 2007 – American Tower Corporation (NYSE: AMT) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2006.
Jim Taiclet, American Tower’s Chief Executive Officer stated, “As demonstrated by American Tower’s strong revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow growth, 2006 was a positive year for the tower industry. We anticipate that the factors which drove much of our new business in 2006 will continue into 2007, including initiatives by US wireless carriers to increase capacity and coverage and deploy new data services. Additionally, we look forward to working closely with our customers who acquired spectrum as part of Auction 66 to help enable the effective and rapid deployment of new markets and services.
“During 2007, we will continue to actively pursue the three pillars of our corporate strategy: seeking and evaluating opportunities, both domestically and internationally, to add quality assets to our portfolio, achieving the highest possible returns on those assets through continuous improvement of our operational execution, and optimizing our balance sheet to benefit our shareholders while maintaining the financial flexibility to pursue future strategic opportunities.
“With respect to our financial strategy, we are pleased to announce our new $1.5 billion stock repurchase plan, the additional liquidity provided by our recently expanded credit facilities, and our intention to obtain a new securitized financing for towers in our SpectraSite portfolio.”

Stock Repurchase Program
The Company’s Board of Directors has approved a new stock repurchase program pursuant to which the Company intends to repurchase up to $1.5 billion of its Class A common stock through February 2008. The Company expects to utilize cash on hand, cash from operations, borrowings under its credit facilities, and borrowings from potential future financings to fund the repurchase program. Under the program, management is authorized to purchase shares from time to time in open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions at prevailing market prices. To facilitate repurchases, the Company plans to make purchases pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan, which will allow the Company to repurchase its shares during periods when it otherwise might be prevented from doing so under insider trading laws or because of self-imposed trading blackout periods.
The Company expects to complete its current $750 million stock repurchase program by the end of February 2007, at which time the Company expects to commence its new stock repurchase program. During the quarter ended December 31, 2006, the Company repurchased approximately 1.1 million shares of its Class A common stock for approximately $40 million. As of February 20, 2007, the Company had repurchased an aggregate of 20.2 million shares of its Class A common stock for approximately $686 million pursuant to this program, which includes the repurchase of 7.2 million shares of its Class A common stock for approximately $287 million subsequent to December 31, 2006.
Financing Highlights
In February 2007, the Company raised $550 million of additional borrowing capacity under the senior secured credit facilities of its principal operating subsidiaries. The Company secured a $300 million revolving loan under the American Tower credit facility and a $250 million revolving loan under the SpectraSite credit facility, both of which remained undrawn at closing. In addition, the Company drew down $250 million of its existing revolving loans under the American Tower credit facility to fund repurchases of the Company’s 5.0% Convertible Notes, pursuant to its previously announced tender offer. As a result, the Company increased its available liquidity under its credit facilities as of February 20, 2007 to over $800 million, which may be used to fund stock repurchases, repurchase existing debt, and for other general corporate purposes. The terms of the new revolving loans are consistent with the terms of the Company’s existing credit facilities and mature on October 27, 2010.
During the first half of 2007, the Company anticipates raising additional capital through a securitization of the majority of the towers in its SpectraSite portfolio to repurchase existing debt, fund stock repurchases, and for other general corporate purposes.
Organizational Changes
The Company also announced several changes in its organizational structure. Jean Bua, currently the Company’s Senior Vice President, Finance and Corporate Controller, will be assuming greater responsibilities in the Company’s finance organization and accordingly, will be promoted to Executive Vice President, Finance and Corporate Controller. In addition, Michael Gearon, Vice Chairman and President of American Tower International, has notified the Company of his intention to leave the Company to devote more time to his personal endeavors and other interests. Hal Hess, currently the Company’s Executive Vice President, General Counsel, will assume Mr. Gearon’s responsibilities as the new Executive Vice President, International Operations. Mr. Hess

Non-GAAP and Defined Financial Measures
In addition to the results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) provided throughout this press release, the Company has presented the following non-GAAP and defined financial measures: Rental and Management Segment Gross Margin, Services Segment Gross Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Free Cash Flow. American Tower defines Rental and
Page 4 of 11
Management Segment Gross Margin as income from operations before depreciation, amortization and accretion, impairments, net loss on sale of long-lived assets, restructuring and merger related expense, stock-based compensation expense, corporate expenses, rental and management segment overhead, services segment overhead, services segment operating expenses, services segment revenue, plus interest income, TV Azteca, net. American Tower defines Services Segment Gross Margin as income from operations before depreciation, amortization and accretion, impairments, net loss on sale of long-lived assets, restructuring and merger related expense, stock-based compensation expense, corporate expenses, services segment overhead, rental and management segment overhead, rental and management segment operating expenses, and rental and management segment revenue. American Tower defines Adjusted EBITDA as income from operations before depreciation, amortization and accretion and impairments, net loss on sale of long-lived assets, restructuring and merger related expense and stock-based compensation expense, plus interest income, TV Azteca, net. American Tower defines Adjusted EBITDA Margin as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA over total revenue. American Tower defines Free Cash Flow as cash provided by operating activities less payments for purchase of property and equipment and construction activities. These measures are not intended as substitutes for other measures of financial performance determined in accordance with GAAP. They are presented as additional information because management believes they are useful indicators of the current financial performance of our core businesses. We believe that these measures can assist in comparing company performances on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation and amortization or capital structure. Our concern is that depreciation and amortization can vary significantly among companies depending on accounting methods, particularly where acquisitions or non-operating factors including historical cost bases are involved. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s measures of Rental and Management Segment Gross Margin, Services Segment Gross Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Cautionary Language Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains “forward-looking statements” concerning the Company’s goals, beliefs, expectations, strategies, objectives, plans, future operating results and underlying assumptions, and other statements that are not necessarily based on historical facts. Examples of these statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our full year 2007 outlook, our stock repurchase programs and our expectations regarding future financing transactions, including a potential securitization. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated in our forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including: (1) a decrease in demand for tower space would materially and adversely affect our operating results and we cannot control that demand; (2) if our wireless service provider customers consolidate or merge with each other to a significant degree, our growth, revenue and ability to generate positive cash flows could be adversely affected; (3) substantial leverage and debt service obligations may adversely affect us; (4) restrictive covenants in our credit facilities and indentures could adversely affect our business by limiting flexibility; (5) due to the long-term expectations of revenue from tenant leases, the tower industry is sensitive to the creditworthiness of its tenants; (6) our foreign operations are subject to economic, political and other risks that could adversely affect our revenues or financial position; (7) a substantial portion of our revenues is derived from a small number of customers; (8) status of Iusacell Celular’s financial restructuring exposes us to risks and uncertainties (9) new technologies could make our tower leasing business less desirable to potential tenants and result in decreasing revenues; (10) we could have liability under environmental laws; (11) increasing competition in the tower industry may create pricing pressures that may adversely affect us; (12) if we are unable to protect our rights to the land under our towers, it could adversely affect our business and operating results; (13) if we are unable or choose not to exercise our rights to purchase towers that are subject to lease and sublease agreements at the end of the applicable period, our cash flows derived from such towers would be eliminated; (14) our towers may be affected by natural disasters and other unforeseen damage for which our insurance may not provide adequate coverage; (15) our costs could increase and our revenues could decrease due to perceived health risks from radio emissions, especially if these risks are substantiated; (16) our stock option granting practices are subject to ongoing governmental proceedings, which could result in fines, penalties or other liability; (17) pending civil litigation relating to our stock option granting practices exposes us to risks and uncertainties; and (18) the bankruptcy proceeding of our Verestar subsidiary exposes us to risks and uncertainties. For other important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in our forward-looking statements, we refer you to the information contained in Item 1A of our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 under the caption “Risk Factors.” We undertake no obligation to update the information contained in this press release to reflect subsequently occurring events or circumstances.
