<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing SBA Comms's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure.

According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, SBA Comms's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.29%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

(SBAC) - Analyzing SBA Comms's Short Interest

In the current session, SBA Comms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBAC#NASDAQ">SBAC</a>) is trading at $218.54, after a 4.30% drop. Over the past month, the stock fell by 7.45%, and in the past year, by 0.22%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are more likely to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio.

<h3>A Look at SBA Comms P/E Relative to Its Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
SBA Comms has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 52.76 of the Specialized REITs industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1730906184_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

SBA Communications&#39; (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/sbac#NASDAQ">SBAC</a>) extensive and geographically diverse wireless communication infrastructure portfolio is well-positioned to gain from the wireless carriers&#39; high capital spending for network expansion amid growth in mobile data usage and accelerated 5G network deployment efforts.
The long-term leases with its tenants assure stable revenues. Also, portfolio expansion moves, domestically and internationally, to capitalize on the secular trends of the industry are encouraging.
However, customer concentration and consolidation in the wireless industry are key near-term concerns. The churn arising from the Sprint-related decommissioning is likely to hurt top-line growth.
Shares of this Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) company have risen 25.9% over the past three months, outperforming the industry&#39;s upside of 16.5%.

<h2>What&#39;s Aiding SBAC?</h2>
The advancement in mobile technology, such as 4G and 5G networks, and the proliferation of bandwidth-intensive applications have propelled growth in mobile data usage globally. This has resulted in wireless service providers and carriers expanding their networks and deploying additional equipment for existing networks to boost network coverage and capacity to meet the rising consumer demand, poising tower real estate investment trusts like SBAC well for growth.
SBA Communications has a resilient and stable site-leasing business model. The company generates most of its revenues from long-term (typically five to 10 years) tower leases that have built-in rent escalators. With high operating margins, its tower-leasing business remains attractive.
As the company continues to expand its tower portfolio and seek new growth opportunities, it focuses on business expansion into domestic and select international markets with high growth characteristics. During the first half of 2024, SBAC acquired 128 towers and related assets. In the second quarter of 2024, it also built 100 towers. Subsequent to June 30, 2024, the company purchased or is under contract to purchase 106 communication sites for a total cash consideration of $49.3 million. Such portfolio expansion efforts will position SBA Communications to leverage secular trends in mobile data usage and wireless spending growth across the globe.
Solid dividend payouts are arguably the biggest enticement for investment in REIT stocks. SBAC has increased its dividend five times in the last five years, and its five-year annualized dividend growth rate is 22.42%. Given SBA Communications&#39; decent financial position and lower-than-industry dividend payout rate, the dividend distribution is expected to be sustainable over the long run.
<h2>What&#39;s Hurting SBAC?</h2>
The company has a high customer concentration, with T-Mobile (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tmus#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>), AT&amp;T (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/t#NYSE">T</a>) and Verizon (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/vz#NYSE">VZ</a>) accounting for the majority of its domestic site-leasing revenues. In the second quarter of 2024, T-Mobile, AT&amp;T and Verizon accounted for 38.2%, 29.7% and 20.2%, respectively, of SBAC&#39;s domestic site-leasing revenues.
The loss of any of these customers, consolidation among them or a reduction in network spending might hurt the company&#39;s top line significantly. The churn arising from the Sprint-related decommissioning is likely to weigh on its performance in the near term.
SBA Communications has a substantially leveraged balance sheet, with $12.4 billion of total debt and net debt to the annualized adjusted EBITDA leverage of 6.4X as of the end of the second quarter of 2024. The high amount of debt is likely to keep SBA Communications&#39; financial obligations elevated. Moreover, its debt-to-capital ratio is higher than the industry average. A high debt-to-capital ratio limits its strength to withstand any credit crisis and unexpected negative externalities in the future.
Note: Anything related to earnings presented in this write-up represents funds from operations (FFO), a widely used metric to gauge the performance of REITs.
