On March 5, Bernstein initiated coverage of American Tower Corporation (NYSE:AMT) with a Market Perform rating. The firm set a $205 price target on the stock. The firm said it has long admired American Tower as a company, pointing to its high-quality core business and consistent execution. According to the analyst, the company has built a portfolio of about 149,000 towers across developed markets around the world.

Bernstein also noted that American Tower owns CoreSite, a U.S.-focused data center provider that serves enterprise customers. While the segment remains relatively small, it still provides an additional source of growth. The firm added that the investment case for tower companies is widely recognized. In its view, towers are considered the “Best Business Ever,” and American Tower stands as one of the clearest examples. Because of that, Bernstein suggested that movements in the stock are more likely to come from broader macro factors than from shifts in strategy or execution. The firm said it views the shares as fairly valued.

American Tower Corporation (NYSE:AMT) is a global real estate investment trust (REIT) and an independent owner, operator, and developer of multitenant communications real estate. The company owns a portfolio of nearly 150,000 communications sites and operates a network of interconnected data center facilities across the United States.
