Uniti Group

Uniti said at the TD Cowen Summit that the merger with Windstream is starting to pay off operationally, reducing complexity while delivering synergies and accelerating fiber buildout. The company reported record gains in Kinetic FTTH new customers, home connections and fiber infrastructure bookings, along with stronger wholesale demand. Uniti sees non-core assets of $500 million to $1 billion for potential disposition, has ABS capacity of around $5 billion and is pursuing a disciplined M&A strategy. The full-year outlook was raised; ARPU is expected to grow 2–3% annually in 2026/27, while management sees further buildout upside and improved customer retention through AI. » More on de.investing.com
