FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

We make forward-looking statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (this “Form 10-K”) within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are subject to risks and uncertainties. For these statements, we claim the protections of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in such Sections. These forward-looking statements include information about possible or assumed future results of our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, plans and objectives. In some cases, these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “continue,” “intend,” “should,” “may,” “will,” or similar expressions, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology.

Forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs, assumptions and expectations based upon our historical performance and on our current plans, estimates and expectations in light of information available to us. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Except as required by law, we are not obligated to, and do not intend to, publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements made herein after the date of this Form 10-K, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties and assumptions relating to our operations, financial results, financial condition, business, prospects, growth strategy and liquidity.liquidity and proposed transaction with affiliates of EQT and Public Sector Pension Investment Board (“PSP”). Actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.

Certain important factors that we think could cause our actual results to differ materially from expected results are summarized below, including the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic on the U.S., regional and global economies, the U.S. sustainable infrastructure market and the broader financial markets. The COVID-19 pandemic has also impacted, and is likely to continue to impact, directly or indirectly, many of the other important factors below and the risks described in this Form 10-K.below. Other factors besides those listed could also adversely affect us. We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risks and uncertainties or how they may affect us. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. In particular, it is difficult to fully assess the impact of COVID-19 at this time due to, among other factors, uncertainty regarding the severity and duration of the pandemic domestically and internationally, uncertainty regarding the effectiveness of federal, state and local governments’ efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 and respond to its direct and indirect impact on the U.S. economy and economic activity, including the availability, distribution, acceptance and efficacy of vaccines (including boosters), and responses to new or mutated strains of COVID-19 (such as the delta or omicron variant) or a similar virus (including vaccine-resistant strains).

PART I

Item 1. Business.

Our Company

Radius Global Infrastructure, Inc. (“Radius” or the “Company”) is a holding company with no material assets other than cash and its limited liability company interests in APW OpCo LLC (“APW OpCo”), a Delaware limited liability company and the sole limited partner of AP WIP Investments Holdings, LP (“AP Wireless”), which in turn is the direct parent of AP WIP Investments, LLC (“AP WIP Investments” and collectively with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “APW Group”).LLC. Radius was originally incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands on November 1, 2017, then known as Landscape Acquisition Holdings Limited (“Landscape”), which was formed to undertake an acquisition of a target company or business. On November 20, 2017, the ordinary shares (the “Ordinary Shares”) and warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares (the “Warrants”) of Landscape were admitted to listing on the London Stock Exchange (“LSE”), and Landscape raised approximately $500 million before expenses through its initial placement of 48,400,000 Ordinary Shares and the Warrants on November 20, 2017 and a private subscription by Noam Gottesman and Michael D. Fascitelli for 1,600,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company designated as “Series A Founder Preferred Stock” (the “Series A Founder Preferred Stock”).

On February 10, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), Landscape completed the acquisition of the APW GroupAP Wireless from Associated Partners, LP, a Guernsey limited partnership (“Associated Partners”) and was renamed Digital Landscape Group, Inc. On October 2, 2020, the Company effected a discontinuance under Section 184 of the BVI Business Companies Act, 2004, as amended, and a domestication under Section 388 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, pursuant to which the Company’s jurisdiction of incorporation was changed from the British Virgin Islands to the State of Delaware (the “Domestication”). Effective upon the Domestication, the Company was renamed “Radius Global Infrastructure, Inc.” On October 2, 2020, in connection with the Domestication, the Company delisted its Ordinary Shares and Warrants from trading on the LSE and on October 5, 2020 began trading its shares of shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Class A Common Stock” or “Class A Shares”) on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “RADI”.

For more information relating to the acquisition of the APW Group, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Recent Developments—The APW Acquisition”. Except as the context otherwise requires, references in the following discussion to the “Company”, “Radius”, “we”, “our” or “us” with respect to periods prior to the Closing Date are to our “Predecessor”, the APW Group, and its operations prior to the Closing Date; such references with respect to periods after to the Closing Date are to our “Successor”, Radius Global Infrastructure, Inc. and its subsidiaries (including the APW Group), and their operations after the Closing Date.

The APW GroupAP Wireless was established as a U.S. cell site lease aggregator in 2010 and made its first foreign lease investment in November of 2011. As of December 31, 2021, the APW Group2022, AP Wireless held assets in, a total of 1920 jurisdictions in addition to the U.S.United States. We believe that the APW GroupAP Wireless has been a “first mover” in many of these jurisdictions; that is, until its market entry no other parties were engaged in the systematic aggregation of cell site leases in any kind of scale.

Our Business

Through our ownership of the APW Group,AP Wireless, we are one of the largest international aggregators of rental streams underlying wireless and other essential communications infrastructure sites through the acquisition of real property interests and contractual rights. We purchase, primarily for a lump sum, the right to receive future rental payments generated pursuant to an existing ground, rooftop or other communications infrastructure lease (and any subsequent lease or extension or amendment thereof) between a property owner and an owner of a wireless tower, antennae or other essential communications infrastructure (each such lease, a “Tenant Lease”). Typically, we acquire the rental streams by way of a purchase of a real property interest in the land underlying the wireless tower, antennae or other essential

2

communications infrastructure, most commonly easements, usufructs, leasehold and sub-leasehold interests, or fee simple interests, each of which provide us with the right to receive all communications rents relating to the property, including the rents from the Tenant Lease. In addition, we purchase contractual interests, such as an assignment of rents, either in conjunction with the property interest or as a stand-alone right.

1

As of December 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, we had interests in 8,1869,188 and 7,1898,186 leases that generate rents for us, respectively. These leases related to properties that were situated on 6,2117,024 and 5,4276,211 different communications sites, respectively, throughout the United States and 1920 other countries. Our revenue was $103.6$135.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.2022. As of December 31, 2021,2022, annualized contractual revenue from the rents expected to be collected on the leases we had in place at that time (the annualized “in-place rents”) from the APW GroupAP Wireless assets was approximately $117.9$157.6 million. For a definition of annualized in-place rents and a comparison to the most directly comparable financial measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), revenue, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

We believe that our business model and the nature of our assets provides us with stable, predictable and growing cash flow. First, we seek to acquire real property interests and rental streams subject to triple net or effectively triple net lease arrangements, whereby most taxes, utilities, maintenance costs and insurance are the responsibility of either the owner of the communications infrastructure or the property owner. Furthermore, Tenant Leases contain contractual rent increase clauses, or “rent escalators”, that are tied to a local consumer price index (“CPI”), subject to open market valuation (“OMV”) or at a fixed rate of increase, typically at approximately 3%. As a percentage of revenue for the year ended December 31, 20212022 and as a percentage of annualized in-place rents as of December 31, 2021,2022, approximately 98%99% of our Tenant Leases had contractual rent escalators. Approximately 76%79% (as a percentage of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021)2022) and 78%82% (as a percentage of annualized in-place rents as of December 31, 2021)2022) of our Tenant Lease contractual rent escalators were either tied to a local CPI or subject to OMV, and the remainder were fixed escalators. In addition, the APW GroupAP Wireless has historically experienced low annual churn as a percentage of revenue, ranging from 1% to 2%1.5%, primarily due to the significant network challenges and expenses incurred by owners of communications infrastructure in connection with the relocation of these infrastructure assets to alternative sites. Finally, we seek to obtain the ability to negotiate amendments and renewals of our Tenant Leases, thereby providing us with additional recurring revenue and one-time fees.

Our Strategy

We seek to continually expand our business primarily byby: implementing organic growth strategies, including expanding into different geographies, asset classes and technologies; continued acquisition of real estate interests and contractual rights (as well as other revenue streams) supporting wireless communications sites and other communications infrastructure (as well as throughinfrastructure; the use of annual rent escalators, the addition of new tenants and/orand lease modifications);modifications; and developing a portfolio of infrastructure assets including through acquisition or build to suit. We intend to achieve these objectives by executing the following strategies:by:

Growing Through Additional Acquisitions. We intend to continue to pursue acquisitions of real property interests and contractual rights underlying communications infrastructure, utilizing the expertise of our management and our proven, proprietary underwriting process to identify and assess potential acquisitions. When acquiring real property interests and contractual rights, we aim to target communications infrastructure locations that are essential to the ongoing operations and profitability of the respective tenants, which we expect will result in continued high tenant occupancy and cash flow stability. We have established a local presence in high opportunity countries in order to expand our operating jurisdictions.jurisdictions through acquisitions in those countries. In addition, we can utilize our advanced acquisition expertise to pursue acquisitions and investments in either single assets or portfolios of assets.

Increasing Cash Flow Without Additional Capital Investment. We seek to organically grow our cash flow on our existing portfolio without additional capital investment through (i) contractual rent escalations, (ii) lease renewals, at higher rates, with existing tenants, (iii) rent increases based on equipment, technology or site modification upgrades at our infrastructure locations and (iv) the addition of new tenants to existing locations.

Leveraging Existing Platform and Continued Expansion of our Business into the Broader Communications Infrastructure. We have acquiredare acquiring and in some cases increasing our expenditures on acquisitions of additional like-kind, long-dated rental streams within the communications infrastructure market segment that have similar characteristics to our core “Tenant Lease” (i.e., an existing lease between a property owner and an owner of a wireless

3

tower or antenna), including investing in Tenant Leases underneath (i) mobile switching centers, which are digital communication fiber exchanges that make the connection between mobile users within networks, from mobile users to the public switched telephone network, and from mobile users to other mobile networks, (ii) distributed antenna system (DAS) networks, which are a way to address isolated

2

spots of poor coverage in a large building or facility (such as a hospital or transportation hub) by installing networks of small antennae to serve as repeaters, (iii) build-to suit-opportunities wherefor which we are contracted to build communications infrastructure (such as wireless towers) and lease such equipment to tenants on a long-term basis, and (iv) data centers, which are large groups of networked computer servers typically used by organizations for remote storage, processing or distribution of large amounts of data that are typically located in a stand-alone building. Additionally, Cell:cm Chartered Surveyors, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary within the APW Group, offers building consultancy services including architecture and design, building and roof maintenance, building surveys and development, and project monitoring.

Our Assets

Types of Assets

As of December 31, 2021,2022, we have acquired a total of 8,5069,529 leases (including non-renewed or terminated leases) since the inception of the APW GroupAP Wireless in 2010 (including non-renewed or terminated leases).2010. As of December 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, we had interests in 8,1869,188 and 7,1898,186 leases that generate rents for us, respectively. These outstanding leases related to properties that were situated on 6,2117,024 and 5,4276,211 different communications sites, respectively. Each of these “assets” is the right to receive the rent payable under the Tenant Lease entered into between the property owner or current lessor of the property and the owner of the wireless communication towers, antennae or other assets installed at such site. These tenants typically are either wireless carriers (mobile network operators, or “MNOs”) or tower companies. We acquire these interests primarily through individually negotiated transactions with the property owners. Our revenue growth rate from in-place escalators associated with in-place Tenant Leases has historically ranged from approximately 3% to 4.5%5%, and approximately 1% to 2%1.5% of our leases are lost annually due to non-renewal or terminations.

The majority of these assets are real property interests of varying legal structures (such as easements, usufructs, leases, surface rights or fee simple interests), which provide us the right to receive the income from the Tenant Lease rental payments over a specified duration. The real property right granted to us is typically limited to the land underlying the area of the communication asset. However, in certain circumstances, we purchase interest in a larger portion of the real property. For rooftop interests, we typically create an interest in the entire rooftop rather than just the portion of the rooftop underlying an antenna, to permit it to grant additional rights to new or existing tower or antenna operators. The scope of the real property interest is also typically tied to our use for wireless communication assets. We also purchase contractual rights in the rental stream, such as through an assignment of rents, either individually or in connection with the purchase of the real property right.

As set forth in the table below, approximately 91% and 94%93% of the total portfolio was generated from real property interests (including fee simple interests), based on total revenue for the year ended December 31, 20212022 and annualized in-place rents as of December 31, 2021,2022, respectively, and 6% and 7% was generated from contractual property interests, based on total revenue for the year ended December 31, 20212022 and annualized in-place rents as of December 31, 2021,2022, respectively. For a definition of annualized in-place rents and a comparison to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, revenue, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Non-GAAP Financial Measures”. Our revenue was $103.6$135.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.2022.

3

Real Property Interests. As of December 31, 2021,2022, we had an aggregate of 6,8587,580 leases arising from real property interests, other than fee simple interests. These real property interests vary by jurisdiction and often bifurcate portions of ownership. In the U.S.,United States, the real property interests are generally easements. In the United Kingdom, we typically enter into “head leases” with the property owner or leaseholder which, as a matter of law, inserts us between the property owner or leaseholder and the tenant. In other jurisdictions, we may purchase from the property owners (i) a “usufruct”, which is a real property right that provides us with the ability to benefit from a property arising from the specified use (in this case use for wireless communications services) for a specified duration or (ii) a “surface right”, which is a real property right to benefit from and use the surface of a property for a specified duration. Under a usufruct or surface right, we become, in accordance with local law, the legal beneficiary of any leases pre-existing on such property and typically have the right to negotiate any new leases during the specified duration. At the end of the specified duration, the full property rights again are vested in the property owner. In each case, these real property rights are registered with the property registry in the applicable jurisdiction to provide constructive notice of such interests and to protect against subsequent creditors.

As of December 31, 2021,2022, we had an aggregate 1,3281,608 leases arising from real property interests that were fee simple interests. The assets associated with fee simple interests. These assetsinterests were primarily held in the United Kingdom (690)(780), Italy (88)(240), the United States (61)(70) and the Netherlands (56)(66). Fee simple ownership confers the greatest bundle of property rights available to us in any jurisdiction. The size of fee simple holdings is typically limited to the land underlying or other real property containing the communication structure and, in certain cases, the surrounding areas for ancillary structures. When we hold a fee simple interest, we will enter into a Tenant Lease directly with the tower owner (the MNO or tower company). In most of our fee simple interests, we have entered into a Tenant Lease that imposes on the tenant the responsibility for taxes, insurance, maintenance and utilities for such property.

Contractual Rights. In addition to real property rights, we acquire contractual rights by way of an assignment of rents, typically where legal limitations of local real estate law or commercial circumstances make the acquisition of a real property interest impractical. These assignments of rent also arise with rooftops where the building is owned by a condominium or governmental entity and it is not feasible to obtain a real property interest. The rent assignment is a contractual obligation pursuant to which the property owner assigns its right to receive the rent arising under the Tenant Lease to us. A rent assignment relates only to an existing Tenant Lease and therefore would not provide us with the ability automatically to benefit from lease renewals beyond those provided for in the existing Tenant Lease. However, in these cases, we either limit the purchase price of the asset to the term of the current Tenant Lease or obtain an irrevocable power of attorney from the property owner that provides us with the ability to negotiate future leases and a contractual obligation from the property owner to assign rental streams from future Tenant Lease renewals.

Common Asset Attributes

Non-disturbance Agreements. When we acquire a real property interest in connection with a property subject to a mortgage, we usually also enter into a non-disturbance agreement (or local equivalent) with the mortgage lender in order to protect us from potential foreclosure on the property owner at the infrastructure location, which foreclosure could, absent a non-disturbance agreement (or local equivalent), extinguish our real property interest. In some instances wherein which we obtain non-disturbance agreements, we remain subordinated to some indebtedness. As of December 31, 2021,2022, substantially all of our real property interests were either subject to non-disturbance agreements or had been otherwise recorded in local real estate records in senior positions to any mortgages.

Revenue Sharing. In most jurisdictions, the instruments granting us the real property interests or contractual rights oftenmay contain revenue sharing arrangements with property owners. These revenue sharing arrangements have varying structures and terms, but generally provide that, upon an increase in the rent due under a new Tenant Lease, the existing lease or a renewal of such lease, the property owner is entitled to receive a percentage of the additional rent payments. These revenue sharing amounts are individually negotiated and range from 20% to 50%.

Triple Net Nature of the Assets. Through the acquisition of real property interests and contractual rights from the property owner, we obtain the property owner’s rights to the rental streams payable under the Tenant Lease. Generally, we do not assume, and contract back to the property owner, the obligations under the pre-existing Tenant Lease, such as the obligations to provide quiet enjoyment of the property or to pay property taxes. Typically, our assets are subject to triple net or effectively triple net lease arrangements, meaning that the tenants or the underlying property owners are contractually responsible for property level operating expenses, including taxes, utilities, maintenance capital and

operating expenditures and insurance. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021,2022, our property taxes, utilities, maintenance and insurance expenses were approximately 2%5% of revenue. We believe that our triple net and effectively triple net lease arrangements support a stable, consistent and predictable cash flow profile due to the following characteristics:

Assets with triple net lease arrangements represented 70%60% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 20212022 and 65%55% of annualized in-place rents as of December 31, 2021.2022. For a definition of annualized in-place rents and a comparison to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, revenue, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Asset Terms. The terms of our real property interests, other than our fee simple interests, generally range from 30 years to 99 years, although some are shorter, and provide us with the right to receive the future income from the future Tenant Lease rental payments over a specified duration. As of December 31, 2021,2022, the weighted average remaining term of our real property interests was 59.866.4 years and specifically, 56.359.4 years for our interests in the United States and Canada, 67.975.3 years for our interests in Europe and Australia and 27.630.2 years for our interests in South America and Mexico. In mostthe majority of cases, the stated term of the real property interest is longer than the remaining term of the Tenant Lease, which provides us with the right and opportunity for renewals and extensions. For more information regarding the terms of our Tenant Leases, see “Item 1. Business- Tenant Lease Terms”. The table below provides an overview of the remaining term under our real property interests and contractual rights as of December 31, 2021.2022.

Communication Structures. Our real property interests and contractual rights typically underlie either a wireless communications tower, an antenna or a fiber exchange. Our structure types include rooftop sites, wireless towers (including monopoles, self-supporting towers, stealth towers and guyed towers) and other structures (including, for example, fiber exchanges, data centers, water towers and church steeples) on which wirelesswhere communications infrastructure assets are located. The table below provides an overview of our portfolio of assets by structure type. For a definition of annualized in-place rents and a comparison to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, revenue, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Non-GAAP Financial Measures”. Our revenue was $103.6$135.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.2022.

Geographic Distribution

We own assets throughout the United States and the following 1920 countries: Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Turkey, the United Kingdom and Uruguay. As of December 31, 2021,2022, approximately 16%17% of our revenue was generated from sites that were located in the United States and Canada, approximately 61%68% of our revenue was generated from sites that were located in Europe and Australia and approximately 23%15% of our revenue was generated from sites that were located in South America and Mexico.

The table below sets forth our top geographic markets, based on a percentage of revenue for the year ended December 31, 20212022 and annualized in-place rents as of December 31, 2021.2022.

The table below presents our principal jurisdictions, calculated on a percentage of revenue generated for the yearyears ended December 31, 2021, for the period from February 10, 2020 to December 31, 2020 (Successor)2022 and for the period from January 1, 2020 to February 9, 2020 (Predecessor)2021 (based on the billing addresses of the related in-place tenants).

Before entering into a new geographic market, we evaluate numerous factors, including the following: (i) political stability, (ii) the rule of law, including the ability to obtain judicial enforcement of our property rights and contract rights, (iii) the reliability, quality and accessibility of local property registries, (iv) macro-economic fundamentals, including inflation and exchange rates, (v) the ability to raise reasonably priced debt at appropriate leverage multiples to support local acquisitions, (vi) the total addressable market, (vii) taxes, including transfer and/or recordation taxes and indirect taxes such as VAT, (viii) regulatory issues, if any, (ix) the extent of competition in and the maturity of the wireless communications market, (x) consolidation risk among tower companies and MNOs, (xi) the potential for sale-leasebacks and/or lease-leasebacks between MNOs and tower companies, (xii) passive and active network sharing risk between MNOs, (xiii) the nature and creditworthiness of the local tower companies and/or MNOs, (xiv) our relationships with local tower companies and MNOs in the market based on our operations in other markets, and (xv) the overall cultural compatibility with the target jurisdiction in question.

Tenant Base

The counterparties to the Tenant Leases from which we derive our revenue are generally either large investment-grade MNOs or tower companies that have a national or international footprint. For the year ended December 31, 2021,2022, our top 20 tenants comprised 83%82% of our revenue. As of December 31, 2021,2022, our top 20 tenants represented 86% of our annualized in-place rents. Investment-grade tenants, which include AT&T Mobility, Verizon, Telefónica, Orange Telstra and Vodafone in the wireless carrier industry and American Tower, Crown Castle and Vantage Towers in the cellular tower industry, constituted 68%51% of the revenue of our top 20 customers. For the year ended December 31, 2021,2022, our top five tenants generated approximately 47%54% of our revenue, and, as of December 31, 2021,2022, generated

7

approximately 52%58% of our annualized in-place rents. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2021, investment-grade tenants comprised approximately 56% of total revenue. For a definition of annualized in-place rents and a comparison to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, revenue, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Our property rights enable us to benefit from the high renewal rates experienced in the industry. Based on the technical challenges and significant expense associated with the decommissioning and repositioning of existing infrastructure within a MNO’s network, and the potential adverse effect on the MNO’s network quality and coverage, churn in the industry has historically been low. Furthermore, zoning restrictions in many countries typically significantly delay, hinder or prevent the construction of new sites, thereby limiting the alternatives available to MNOs. In addition, as MNOs seek to expand network coverage, we expect that MNOs will seek to deploy additional antennae through co-location on existing towers and rooftops, positioning us to benefit from additional revenue opportunities on many of the towers and other structures located on sites where we hold real property interests. We believe each of these attributes helps us achieve stable, consistent and predictable cash flow.

We monitor tenant credit quality on an ongoing basis by reviewing credit ratings of our tenants and, when necessary and where available, the publicly filed financial reports, press releases and other publicly available industry information regarding the parent entities of tenants.

Tenant Lease Terms

The Tenant Leases underlying our assets are typically structured with automatically renewable periodic terms. Tenant Leases, as originally entered into with the property owners and classified as operating leases, typically have initial stated terms of five years, with multiple five-year renewal periods at the option of the tenant. As of December 31, 2021,2022, the weighted average remaining lease term of our Tenant Leases is approximately nineten years including renewal terms. Our Tenant Leases produce an average of approximately $1,200$1,429 per month in rental payments but can range above and below that significantly. In addition, substantially all of our Tenant Leases include built in rent escalators, which are typically CPI increases, OMV increases or are at a fixed percentage of approximately 3%, and increase rent annually or on the renewal of the lease term. As a percentage of revenue for the year ended December 31, 20212022 and as a percentage of annualized in-place rents as of December 31, 2021,2022, approximately 98%99% of our Tenant Leases had contractual rent escalators. Approximately 76%79% (as a percentage of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021)2022) and 78%82% (as a percentage of annualized in-place rents as of December 31, 2021)2022) of our Tenant Lease contractual rent escalators were either tied to a local CPI or subject to OMV, and the remainder were fixed escalators. The table below sets forth our contractual rent escalators as of December 31, 2021,2022, including as a percentage of revenue and as a percentage of annualized in-place rents.

Although Tenant Leases are typically structured as long-term leases with fixed rents and rent escalators, Tenants generally have the contractual right to terminate their leases upon 30 to 180 days’ notice. The table below summarizes the remaining lease terms of the Tenant Leases underlying our assets as of December 31, 2021,2022, including as a percentage of revenue and as a percentage of annualized in-place rents.

The table below sets forth the frequencies of rental payments under the Tenant Leases underlying our assets as of December 31, 2021,2022, including as a percentage of revenue and as a percentage of annualized in-place rents.

Our Acquisition and Origination Platform

We have developed experienced and proprietary techniques associated with (i) market targeting and evaluation, (ii) jurisdiction-specific structuring from legal financial and taxfinancial perspectives, (iii) jurisdiction-specific documentation, (iv) asset identification, targeting and evaluation (including the construction, operation and maintenance of proprietary databases), (v) culturally appropriate marketing and acquisition techniques, (vi) jurisdiction-specific commercial and legal due diligence, (vii) relationships with more than 50 investment-grade MNOs and tower companies world-wide,worldwide, (viii) ongoing relationships with regional and local financial, legal and tax advisors who are familiar with our business, (ix) relationships with local notaries in civil law countries, and (x) jurisdiction-specific property management and human resources practices.

Our global real estate acquisition and property management platform consists of four phases: (1) lead generation and marketing, (2) investment origination, (3) underwriting and closing and (4) property management.

9

Lead Generation

We have developed a proprietary lead generation system, which we use across the jurisdictions in which we operate. This system is based on each jurisdiction’s local language and is used to identify asset prospects. Once an infrastructure location prospect has been identified, our global data management team leverages a variety of publicly available data and proprietary data and resources to obtain contact information for the property owner. Once the property owner’s address and contact information are verified, a “lead” is created in our proprietary customer relationship management database and made available to our local teams.

Investment Origination

The investment origination process begins with a material interaction between one of our acquisitions professionals and the property owner, at which point a lead becomes an investment “opportunity.” Depending on the jurisdiction, initial interactions are either telephonic or in person. In most cases our personnel will physically meet with the property owner one or more times prior to closing. During this process we will evaluate the transaction alternatives and the property owner’s interest level in transacting with us. Once we obtain a copy of the lease from the property owner, relevant data is entered into our proprietary asset evaluation system to generate an initial term sheet or option agreement. Terms then are negotiated with the property owner and, upon acceptance of a term sheet or option agreement, we proceed with further diligence.

Underwriting and Closing

After the proposal has been accepted by the property owner and a term sheet or option agreement has been executed, the investment opportunity moves to our underwriting and closing teams. The potential transaction enters a

10

comprehensive due diligence process. Curative measures are taken to clear title on the real property interest during the underwriting and due diligence process.

In the underwriting stage, we review various transaction-related material, documents and other information for compliance with our underwriting criteria.

As a general matter, when acquiring real property interests, we will target infrastructure locations that are material to the operations of the existing tenants. TheHistorically, the majority of our acquisitions include leases with investment-grade tenants or tenants whose sub-tenants are investment-grade companies. Additionally, we will focus on infrastructure locations with characteristics that are difficult to replicate in the respective market, and those with tenant assets that cannot be easily moved to alternative sites or replaced by new construction.

While we typically make a single upfront payment in exchange for the revenue stream, the underwriting process also provides for the option to structure our payments to the property owner over a period of time, typically paying over a 2-two- to 7-yearseven-year period (as opposed to 100% upfront). As of December 31, 2021,2022, the weighted average remaining contractual payment term for our liabilities to property owners was 3.23.1 years.

Once an opportunity is deemed to meet due diligence and underwriting standards, it proceeds to our investment committee for transaction approval. Pending approval, legal closing documents are prepared, executed and delivered.

Property Management

After funding, the tenant is notified of the transaction and a notarized payment re-direction letter is sent advising the tenant to redirect rental payments to us. The asset management phase includes collections, tenant payment conversion, tenant contact management, the negotiation of lease renewals, modifications, cancellations, reductions, document and consent requests, landlord and tenant complaints and new leasing of available tenant sites. The objective of the asset management function is to ensure that we efficiently receive and process our rental income while optimizing our ability to capitalize on opportunities for additional revenue opportunities.

Human Capital

As of December 31, 2021,2022, we had 337399 employees, including 334 396full-time employees. Of the 337399 employees, 231 264are male and 106 135are female. As of December 31, 2021,2022, we have employees concentrated in the following countries: Australia, Belgium,

10

Brazil, Chile, Colombia,France, Germany, Hungary,Greece, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Turkey,  United Kingdom, and the United States.

Competition for qualified personnel has historically been intense, particularly for acquisition directors, finance professionals, and software engineers.

At Radius, weWe strive to recognize talent, respect hard work and reward success. We are a dynamic team that aimssuccess, and aim to provide an opportunistic environment for all of our people to thrive. OurWe believe that our teams around the globe are our most important assets and fundamental to our success. We invest in our employees by providing training and learning opportunities, promoting inclusion and diversity and upholding a high standard of ethics and respect for human rights. With a strong entrepreneurial culture, we embrace our core values: integrity, accountability, teamwork and a performance-minded approach.

We believe in our employees’ rights of freedom of association. As of December 31, 2021,2022, we have employees in 1819 different countries and to the extent any specific country (for instance, France, Italy and Brazil) requires the employees to be part of any legally required labor group or plan, we comply with such legal requirements. We are committed to supportsupporting workers’ rights to organize and bargain collectively, where allowed by the law. We maintain positive worker-management relationships that ensure compliance with national employment and labor laws. None of our employees are represented by labor unions and approximately 21%24% of our employees operate under collective bargaining agreements.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Aligned with our business strategy, our human capital strategy focuses on solutions to attract, develop, engage and retain top diverse talent in each of the countries we operate. Diversity, equity and inclusion (“DEI”) are top priorities

11

for us. To ensure success each of these remains at the core of our business culture, infusingwith the intention to infuse fresh ideas, helpingto help us to remain connected to our workforce in a dynamic global market and ensuringto ensure mutual respect guides our interactions both internally and externally. We expect employees to embrace these values to ensure our work environment is inclusive and respectful, as well as free of harassment, discrimination and retaliation.

We believe that pay equity is fundamental to our culture and DEI strategy. Compensation is based on job position, responsibilities, experience and performance with incentive opportunities that allow colleagues to share in our success. In 2022, we achieved greater than 99% pay equity across gender. 

We are also committed to ensuring diverse representation among our employees. As of December 31, 2022, 34% of our global workforce is made up of women, and 35% of all 2022 new hires identified as women.

We are committed to pay equity, regardless of gender or race/ethnicity. In 2021, our Human Resources department conducted a global pay equity analysis, which we plan to review and update (where necessary)have taken several actions based on an annual basis.

We intend to implement a variety of initiatives in 2022 to improve workplace diversity and inclusion, including by:the Company’s DEI Steering Committee’s recommendations including:

In 2023 we expect to continue implementing new DEI initiatives, including through more educational opportunities for the employees, increased community involvement to reach underrepresented areas, and enhanced recruiting efforts to ensure a broader and more diverse applicant pool.

Employee Recruitment & Retention

We work diligently to attract talent across the globe to build teams that meet the current and future demands of our business. In 2021, our Human Resources department developed and implemented a global applicant tracking and onboarding system and provided company-wide training to hiring managers and employees. The training focused on strategic recruitment practices including defining hiring standards, conducting successful interviews, and providing orientation tofor new employees.

During fiscal 2021, our employee population increased by approximately 8.7%, primarily due to increases in operations.

11

Employee Engagement

We manage and measure organizational health with a view to gaining insight to employees’ experiences, levels of workplace satisfaction, and feelings of engagement and inclusion. We use Employee Voice (a module within our HRIS platform (as defined below) that is a survey tool) to conduct quarterly employee surveys to measure organizational health and employee experiences. We intend to use insights from these surveys to develop company-wide organizational talent development plans. In 2022, we will use a lifecycle survey to monitor employee sentiment upon hire, as well as 30-, 60-, 90-day surveys in an effort to improve retention and help us assess the main drivers of a new hires’ success within the Company.  

Talent Development

In fiscal 2021, we rolled out a global human resource information system (“HRIS”) platform that includes a learning management module. The HRIS platform is an online portal that enables employees to access instructor-led classroom or virtual courses and self-directed web-based courses as well as compliance and other workforce-related training courses. The training provided will includeincludes required courses by position level, as well as optional courses for professional development. These skill-building programs will beare aligned around a common set of objectives and framework focused on compliance (including, for example on cybersecurity, anti-bribery and corruption, diversity, equity and inclusion, sexual harassment and other ethics topics), technical, professional and management development. There is an expectation that every employee has a development goal as part of individual performance objectives and that compliance training will occur every 12 months or as required by state law. Upon completion of any training or program, each employee, through the HRIS platform, will be expected to pass a test or digitally acknowledge completion through the HRIS platform. Regular training reinforces our company-wide policies, and for our global offices, the policies and training materials have been translated into applicable local languages. In 2022, 83% of our workforce participated in DEI training. A total of 3,289 courses were completed globally in the HRIS platform.

In 2022, we expanded our efforts into tracking and leveraging information from our applicant tracking system to better understand our attraction and selection practices and thus implement further training and development and strategic sourcing activities to enhance our existing efforts.

During the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, our employee population increased by approximately 18% and 9%, respectively, primarily as a result of meeting the demands of a larger asset base and the pursuit of continued growth in our lease revenues.

Employee Engagement

We are committed to maintaining an engaged workforce as we believe engagement is critical to the ongoing achievement of our goals. We monitor employee engagement through regular surveys. In 2022, we expanded our efforts into tracking and leveraging information from our applicant tracking system to better understand our attraction and selection practices and thus implement further training and development and strategic sourcing activities to

12

enhance our existing efforts. In 2022, the vast majority of our employees agreed that they would recommend us as a great place to work, which we consider to be a strong indicator of their engagement. Our overall employee engagement score, as measured by data collected from employee surveys conducted in our human resource information system (“HRIS”) platform, was a 4.9/6, which we interpret to reflect job satisfaction and employees feeling supported by management. We believe our ability to recruit and retain employees and keep them engaged is influenced by the opportunity to do interesting work that supports our mission. We also offer paid days off to engage in volunteer activities to encourage involvement in socially positive efforts, including those that echo our mission.

Total Rewards

We provide compensation and benefits programs that are intended to reward our employees and to help meet their needs. In addition to salaries, and varying by country/region, these programs include:

In addition to our broad-based equity awards program, we have used targeted equity-based grants with vesting conditions to facilitate retention of personnel, particularly those with critical skills and experience.

Talent Development

We believe that learning goes hand in hand with career growth, personal satisfaction, and outstanding results. We aspire to create a learning culture where colleagues actively learn, apply what they have learned to address business challenges and share their knowledge, including their mistakes, to help others grow. Learning is accessible through our HRIS, as well as through social learning and meaningful experiences and exposures with colleagues. 

On an annual basis, we conduct a company-wide global performance review process that focuses on our high performing employees and the succession for our most critical roles.

We are committed to identifying and developing the talents of our future leaders. We have developed talent management and succession planning modules within our HRIS platform to support the development of our talent pipeline for critical roles in sales and operations.

Developing our managers is critical to our success as well. We provide resources and tools to all levels of management, including courses to meet regional needs. Managers learn tools and best practices that are intended to enable both management and team success and strengthen competencies to better respond to the needs of a growing and complex organization.

Total Rewards

We provide compensation and benefits programs that are intended to reward our employees and to help meet their needs. In addition to salaries, and varying by country/region, these programs include:

In addition to our broad-based equity awards program, we have used targeted equity-based grants with vesting conditions to facilitate retention of personnel, particularly those with critical skills and experience.

Health, Safety and Well-being

The health and safety of our employees is a high priority. Our safety focus is evident, among other was, inemployee health vision aims to inspire and empower our responsepeople to the COVID-19 pandemic around the globe. We have responded to the pandemic by, among other things:choose a healthier future for themselves, their families and our business.

Our approach involves:

13

This approach is underpinned by the principles of respecting privacy and personal choices, enabling informed decision making and supporting a healthy working environment and working conditions.

We view mental health as a fundamental part of our humanity and implemented a comprehensive suite of related programs and benefits in fiscal 2021.2022. These include:

In 2023, we will expand employee resources for mental health and well-being by offering courses for employees to become qualified mental health first aiders, and the creation of an employee mental health resource group for both men and women. We will also mark World Mental Health Day with an entire week dedicated to this topic.

Regulatory and Environmental Matters

Our international operations may be subject to limitations on foreign ownership of land in certain areas. Non-compliance with such regulations may lead to monetary penalties or deconstruction orders. Our international operations are also subject to various regulations and guidelines regarding employee relations and other occupational health and safety matters. As we expand our operations into additional international geographic areas, we will be subject to regulations in these jurisdictions.

In the United Kingdom, for example, we are subject to the revised Electronic Communications Code, which came into force on December 28, 2017 as part of the United Kingdom’s Digital Economy Act 2017. The Electronic Communications Code governs certain relationships between landowners and operators of electronic communications services, such as cellular towers. It gives operators certain rights to install, inspect and maintain electronic communications apparatus, including masts, cables and other equipment on land and structures, even where the operator cannot agree with the landowner as to the terms of such use. Among other measures, the Electronic Communications Code restricts the ability of landowners to charge premium prices for the use of their land by basing the consideration paid on the underlying value of the land, not the value attributable to the high public demand for communications services and provides authority to the courts to determine the rent if the parties are unable to come to agreement. We have devoted and continue to devote a significant amount of management attention and resources to mitigating the potential adverse impact of the Electronic Communications Code, including through dispute resolution, as new and existing tenants in the United Kingdom have attempted to materially reduce the amount of rents paid to us under leases as a result of this law. To date, the Electronic Communications Code has not had a material adverse effect on our business in the United Kingdom, but we cannot provide any assurances that we will continue to be successful in our efforts to mitigate the potential adverse impact of this law on our business in the United Kingdom. If any revisionsIn December 2022, the government in the United Kingdom adopted amendments to the Electronic Communications Code are implemented or any new law, unfavorable court decision or interpretationin the Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act, which will extend the reach of the valuation regime in the Electronic Communications Code is issued, it wouldand may have a material adverse effect on our business in the United Kingdom. For more information on the risks related to the Electronic Communications Code, and currently proposed revisions to the law which would have an adverse impact on our business, see “Risk Factors—The Electronic Communications Code enacted in the United Kingdom may limit the amount of lease income we generate in the United Kingdom, which would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition”.

Laws and regulations governing the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment are applicable to the communications sites in which we have a real property interest and to the businesses and operations of our lessees, property owners and other surface owners or operators. International, Federal,

13

state and local government agencies issue regulations that often require difficult and costly compliance measures that carry substantial administrative, civil and criminal penalties and that may result in injunctive obligations for non-compliance. These laws and regulations often require permits before operations commence, restrict the types, quantities and concentrations of various substances that can be released into the environment, require remediation of released substances, and limit or prohibit construction or operations on certain lands (e.g., wetlands). Although we do not conduct any operations on our properties in the United Kingdom, the MNOs or tower companies on our

14

communications sites may maintain small quantities of materials that, if released, would be subject to certain environmental laws. Similarly, the site owners, lessees and other surface interest owners may have liability or responsibility under these laws that could have an indirect impact on our business. For those communications sites in which we hold real property interests that are not full fee simple ownership, our liability is typically limited to damages caused by our actions. However, in limited circumstances certain jurisdictions may seek to impose liability if all other owners are not available. With respect to the communications sites that we own in fee simple, we are subject to environmental liability in accordance with local law.

Competition

We face competition in the acquisition of our assets. Some of the competitors are larger than us and include public entities with greater access to capital and scale of operations than us. Our principal competitors include large independent tower companies such as American Tower, Cellnex Telecom, Cornerstone, Crown Castle International, Inwit, MBNL, Phoenix Towers, SBA Communications, Telesites, Vertical Bridge and Vantage Towers, large MNOs and private and public acquirers of similar assets. In some jurisdictions, including Europe, the number of wireless towers and antennae owned by tower companies, as compared to MNOs, is growing quickly. These tower companies may be more likely to seek to own or control the land underlying their tower as that is their asset/service as compared to the MNOs who have traditionally allocated their capital to network development rather than acquisition of the underlying real property. These wireless tower companies are larger and may have greater financial resources than us.

Significant Trends

Consumer demand for data is the primary driver of the telecom infrastructure services that our tenants, predominantly mobile network operators and tower companies, provide. Consumer demand continues to grow due to increases in data consumption and the increased penetration of bandwidth-intensive devices. There is a need for enhanced network coverage and densification to meet speed and capacity demands. We believe that we are well positioned to benefit from this increase in consumer demand. The following trends are expected to continue to impact the industry:

Mobile Data Traffic Growth. The proliferation of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets and the omnipresence of sophisticated, data-intensive mobile applications and services are expected to drive a strong demand for mobile bandwidth supporting an explosive growth of data usage. The Ericsson Mobility Report, published in June 2021November 2022 (the “Ericsson Mobility Report 2021”2022”), estimated that around 91%93% of all mobile subscriptions will be for mobile broadband by the end of 2026.2028. This demand is expected to drive major MNOs to continue to upgrade and enhance their networks in an effort to improve network quality and capacity. Additionally, global mobile data traffic is predicted to grow by 480%at least 400% between 20202022 and 2026,2028, according to the Ericsson Mobility Report 2021.2022. With users demanding faster communication speeds and higher bandwidth, and MNOs looking to compete on network quality, we expect our tenants to continue to enjoy strong demand for their services.

Adoption of Higher Capacity Communication Standards. As data usage continues to rapidly increase, consumer demand is expected to continue to drive the transition from 2G and 3G networks to 4G/LTE and 5G networks globally. Forecasts published in the Ericsson Mobility Report 20212022 predict there to be 3.5more than 5 billion 5G subscriptions globally for enhanced mobile broadband by the end of 2026,2028, with 40%74% of all North American mobile subscriptions expected to be for 5G in 2026.2028. The continued adoption of bandwidth-intensive applications is expected to result in a growing demand for high-capacity, multi-location, fiber-based network solutions.

New Technologies and Services. Next generation technologies and new uses for wireless communications are expected to result in new entrants or increased demand in the wireless industry, which may include companies involved in the continued evolution and deployment of machine-to-machine applications (“M2M”), such as connected cars, smart cities and virtual reality. As oneFor example, of M2M connections, the proliferation of self-driving cars is expected to significantly accelerate in the near future. The commercial application of partially and fully autonomous vehicles will require the deployment of sophisticated and dense mobile networks, with high connection speeds,

14

high reliability and low latency. This and other increases in new technologies and services will require further development of new infrastructures to meet territorial and population coverage requirements.

Consolidation Among MNOs. The U.S. wireless industry has experienced, and may continue to experience, significant consolidation, such as the 2020 merger between Sprint and T-Mobile, resulting in the decommissioning of certain existing communications sites due to overlap of the networks or the rationalization of technology.

15

Internationally, MNOs are increasingly entering into active and passive network sharing agreements or roaming or resale arrangements which could also result in decommissioning of certain existing communications sites due to network overlap or redundancy. To the extent that aan MNO does not need a redundant communication site, it may seek to early terminate or not renew its lease. Consolidation can also potentially reduce the diversity of tenants and give tenants greater leverage over their landlords, such as us, due to overlapping coverage, ability to increase co-location on nearby existing sites and through aggressive lease negotiations on multiple sites.

Privacy and Data Protection

We collect, use, disclose, store and process data, which may include personal data, of: (i) site owners who have agreements with mobile network operators and telecommunication infrastructure providers, (ii) the MNOs and tower companies from whom we receive rental payments, (iii) our employees, and (iv) our service providers. We do not sell data.

We are or may be subject to various U.S., European Union (the “EU”), and other foreign laws and regulations relating to privacy, data protection, and cybersecurity,cyber and information security (“Data Privacy Laws”), including, among others:

We collect, use, disclose, store and processIn addition, our data of (i) site owners who have agreements with mobile network operators and telecommunication infrastructure providers, (ii) the MNOs and tower companies from whom we receive rental payments, (iii) our employees, and (iv) other service providers. Our handling of data is subject to a variety of state, local and foreign laws and regulations, as well as contractual obligations and industry standards. We also implemented a third-party management program that focuses on data protection and safety.

The legal and regulatory landscape for privacy and data protection continues to evolve, and there has been an increase in attention given to privacy and data protection issues with the potential to impactAll of our business. Regulatory focus on data privacy and security concerns continues to increase globally, and laws and regulations concerning the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information are expanding and becoming more complex. We are continuing to assess the impact of new and proposed data privacy and protection laws and proposed amendments to existing laws on our business.

In the United States, such laws and regulations include state and federal breach notification laws and consumer protection laws, as well as state laws addressing privacy and data security. Internationally, various foreign jurisdictions in which we operate have established, or are developing, data privacy and security legal frameworks with which we must comply. In certain cases, these international laws and regulations are more restrictive than those in the United States.

U.S. and global laws and regulations may require notification to individuals and government authorities in the event ofentities entered into a breach of certain personal data, which could result in increased costs stemming from the notification itself or a regulatory inquiry. Any changes in privacy and data protection laws or regulations could also adversely impact the way we use e-mail, text messages and other marketing techniques and could require changes to our marketing strategies. We have a privacy policy posted on our website at www.radiusglobal.com. Our privacy policies may change over time as expectations regarding privacy and data change.

Our significant operations in the EU are subject to the GDPR, which applies to all our activities conducted from an establishment in the EU or related to adjacent operations that we proceed to in the EU. It also imposes stringent data

15

protection requirements on companies that receive or process personal information from EU residents and establishes significant penalties for non-compliance.

Violation of the GDPR can result in administrative fines of up to EUR 20 million or 4% of annual worldwide revenues, whichever is greater. Such penalties are in addition to any civil litigation claims by data controllers, customers and data subjects. Further, the United Kingdom’s departure from the EU (“Brexit”) has created uncertainty regarding the regulation of data protection in the United Kingdom. In particular, although the United Kingdom enacted a Data Protection Act in May 2018 that is designed to be consistent with the GDPR, uncertainty remains regarding how data transfers to and from the United Kingdom will be regulated following Brexit.

In addition, some countries are considering or have enacted data localization laws requiring that user data regarding users in their country be maintained, stored, and/or processed in their country. Maintaining local data centers in individual countries could increase our operating costs significantly.

We have implemented data transfer agreement that establishes mechanisms to provide for the transfer of personal information among our different entities from the European Economic Area (the “EEA”)EU or the United Kingdom to the United States. However, there are certain unsettled legal issues regardingStates or Latin America. We annually review the adequacydata transfer agreement terms to update them to address newly implemented or modified privacy laws. Any of our newly created entities must adhere to this data transfers to the United States, the resolution of which may adversely impact our ability to process and transfer personal data outside of the EEA.agreement.

Our efforts to comply with Data Privacy Laws and industry best practices include the creation and maintenance of a data privacy discussion group, which meets quarterly or on an “as needed” basis, with the objective of, among others:

We also engage external experts to assist us with relevant topics discussed in these meetings and to help us implement and modify our policies and stay or become compliant with applicable laws and regulations.

Our efforts to comply with privacy, data protection and information security laws, regulations and other obligations, which include a long-term engagement with a cybersecurity firm to assess IT security and implement IT best practices, penetration testing by independent external parties on a recurring basis and investment in additional server hardware and licenses to monitor security events through the use of a Security Information and Event Management System (“SIEM”),System.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Investing in our securities carries a significant degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information in this Form 10-K, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-K, before deciding whether to invest in our securities. If any or a combination of the following risks were to materialize, our results of operations, financial condition and prospects could be materially adversely affected. If that were to be the case, the market price of our securities could decline, and investors could lose all or part of their investment. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also adversely affect our business.

Risks Relating to our Pending Acquisition by EQT and PSP

The Mergers may not be completed on the terms or timeline currently contemplated, or at all, for a variety of reasons, including the possibility that the Merger Agreement is terminated prior to the consummation of the Mergers, and the failure to complete the Mergers could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, and the market price of our Common Stock.

There can be no assurance that the Mergers will be completed in the currently contemplated timeframe, or at all. The consummation of the Mergers are subject to certain conditions, including, among others, (a) the approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement by our stockholders, (b) the absence of a law or order prohibiting the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or imposing a Burdensome Condition (as defined in the Merger Agreement), (c) the termination or expiration of any waiting periods and receipt of approvals under applicable antitrust and foreign investment laws without the imposition of a Burdensome Condition (as defined in the Merger Agreement), (d) compliance by the Company, APW OpCo and the Parent Parties in all material respects with our and their respective obligations under the Merger Agreement, (e) subject to specified exceptions and qualifications for materiality, the accuracy of representations and warranties made by the Company, APW OpCo and the Parent Parties, respectively, as of the closing date, (f) no Debt Default (as defined in the Merger Agreement) having occurred and been continuing immediately prior and immediately after giving effect to the Mergers, (g) the Company having a minimum cash balance of $210 million and the Company or any of its subsidiaries having an additional amount of cash of not less than $30 million, in each case at the closing of the Mergers, (h) no effect, change, circumstance or occurrence that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) having occurred since the date of the Merger Agreement and (i) certain waivers of change of control provisions under our Specified Debt Agreements (as defined in the Merger Agreement) being in full force and effect at the closing of the Mergers.  The consummation of the Mergers is not subject to a financing condition.

While it is currently expected that the Mergers will close on or around the third quarter of 2023, there can be no assurance that all required approvals will be obtained or that all closing conditions will otherwise be satisfied (or waived, if applicable), and, if all required approvals are obtained and all closing conditions are satisfied (or waived, if applicable), we can provide no assurance as to the terms, conditions and timing of such approvals or that the Mergers will be completed in a timely manner or at all. Many of the conditions to completion of the Mergers are not within our or Parent’s control, and we cannot predict when or if these conditions will be satisfied (or waived, as applicable). Even if regulatory approval is obtained, it is possible conditions will be imposed that could result in a material delay in, or the abandonment of, the Mergers or otherwise have an adverse effect on us.

The Merger Agreement contains customary mutual termination rights for us and Parent, which could prevent the consummation of the Mergers, including if the Mergers are not completed by September 30, 2023 (subject to extension to November 30, 2023 under certain circumstances).

The Merger Agreement also contains customary termination rights for the benefit of each party, including if the other party breaches its representations, warranties, or covenants under the Merger Agreement in a way that would result in a failure of the other party’s condition to closing being satisfied (subject to certain procedures and cure periods). Additionally, the Merger Agreement provides termination rights, if certain conditions are met, including (a) for Parent, if our Board of Directors makes an Adverse Recommendation Change (as defined in the Merger Agreement), and (b) for us, if our Board of Directors authorizes entry into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal (as

18

defined in the Merger Agreement) prior to us receiving stockholder approval of the Merger or if the Parent fails to close the Mergers by the later of (1) five business days after all closing conditions have been satisfied and (2) five business days following the Company’s delivery of a written notice to Parent that all of Parent’s closing conditions have been satisfied or waived and the Company is ready, willing and able to consummate the Mergers.

If the Mergers are not completed within the expected timeframe or at all, we may be subject to a number of material risks, including:

The Merger Agreement contains provisions that could discourage a potential competing acquirer of the Company or could result in a competing acquisition proposal being at a lower price than it might otherwise be. 

The Merger Agreement contains provisions that, subject to certain exceptions, restrict our ability to solicit or negotiate any alternative acquisition proposal. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under circumstances relating to an alternative acquisition proposal, we may be required to pay a termination fee of $52 million. These provisions could discourage a potential competing acquirer that might have an interest in acquiring all or a significant part of the Company’s business from considering or making a competing acquisition proposal, even if the potential competing acquirer was prepared to pay consideration with a higher per share cash value than the market value proposed to be received or realized in the Mergers, or might cause a potential competing acquirer to propose to pay a lower price than it might otherwise have proposed to pay because of the added expense of the termination fee and other costs that may become payable in certain circumstances under the Merger Agreement.

While the Merger Agreement is in effect, we are subject to certain interim covenants.

The Merger Agreement generally requires us to operate our business in the ordinary course, subject to certain exceptions, including as required by applicable law, pending consummation of the Mergers, and subjects us to customary interim operating covenants that restrict us, without Parent’s approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), from taking certain specified actions until the Mergers are completed or the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms. These restrictions could prevent us from pursuing certain business opportunities that may arise prior to the consummation of the Merger and may affect our ability to execute our business strategies and attain financial and other goals and may impact our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The announcement and pendency of the Mergers may result in disruptions to our business, and the Mergers could divert management's attention, disrupt our relationships with third parties and employees, any of which could negatively impact our operating results and ongoing business.

Our current and prospective employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles with us following the Mergers, which may materially adversely affect our ability to attract and retain key personnel and other employees while the Mergers are pending.

The pending Mergers could cause disruptions to our business or business relationships with our existing and potential tenants, sellers and other business partners, and this could have an adverse impact on our results of operations. Parties with which we have business relationships may experience uncertainty as to the future of such relationships and may delay or defer certain business decisions, seek alternative relationships with third parties, or seek to negotiate changes or alter their present business relationships with us. Parties with whom we otherwise may have sought to establish business relationships may seek alternative relationships with third parties.

The pursuit of the Mergers may place a significant burden on management and internal resources, which may have a negative impact on our ongoing business. It may also divert management’s time and attention from the day-to-day operation of our businesses and the execution of our other strategic initiatives. This could adversely affect our financial results. In addition, we have incurred and will continue to incur other significant costs, expenses, and fees for professional services and other transaction costs in connection with the Mergers, and many of these fees and costs are payable regardless of whether or not the pending Mergers are consummated.

Any of the foregoing, individually or in combination, could materially and adversely affect our business, our financial condition and our results of operations and prospects.

An adverse judgment in any litigation that may be filed to challenge the Mergers may prevent the transaction from becoming effective or from becoming effective within the expected timeframe.

The Company may be subject to stockholder lawsuits challenging the Mergers and such suits may seek, among other things, to enjoin us from proceeding with the stockholder vote on the Mergers. No assurance can be made as to the outcome of these and other similar lawsuits, including the amount of costs associated with defending such claims or any other liabilities that may be incurred in connection with the litigation of such claims. If plaintiffs are successful in obtaining an injunction prohibiting completion the Mergers on the agreed-upon terms, such an injunction may delay the completion of the transaction in the expected timeframe or may prevent the transaction from being completed altogether. Whether or not any plaintiff’s claim is successful, such litigation may result in significant costs and diverts management’s attention and resources, which could adversely affect the operation of our business.

Risks Relating to our Industry

If the MNOs or tower companies consolidate their operations, exit the wireless communications business or share site infrastructure to a significant degree, our business and profitability could be materially and adversely affected.

The U.S. wireless carrier industry has experienced, and may continue to experience, significant consolidation, such as the 2020 merger between Sprint and T-Mobile. Historically, consolidation among MNO’s has resulted in the decommissioning of certain existing communications sites, including due to overlap of the networks or the consolidation of different technologies. For example, the Sprint-Nextel merger led to significant churn as the consolidated company terminated leases of sites on which iDen technology had been located. Internationally, MNO’s are increasingly entering into active and passive network sharing agreements or roaming or resale arrangements. For example, in 2019 Vodafone announced that it had entered into active and passive network sharing agreements in Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom. These agreements could also result in decommissioning of certain existing communications sites due to network overlap or redundancy.

The Tenant Leases from which we derive most of our revenue can typically be terminated upon a very short notice period, generally 30 to 180 days, regardless of the length of the lease term. To the extent that aan MNO does not need a redundant communications site, it may terminate the site’s lease prior to the end of the lease term or simply refuse to renew the lease. As part of our business strategy, we purchase the revenue stream under a lease from the site owner, typically including any renewal periods, and assumes the risk that such lease is early terminated or not renewed. As we do not have recourse to the site owner in the case of such early termination (absent fraud or breach of contractual representations or covenants by such site owner), our ongoing in-place rents and future results may be negatively

20

impacted if a significant number of these leases are terminated or not renewed, materially impairing the value of our real property and contractual interests in such sites.

Consolidation can also potentially reduce the diversity of the tenants from which we derive revenue and give tenants greater leverage over us, as their effective landlord, by increasing co-location on nearby existing sites and aggressively negotiating master lease terms for multiple sites, all of which could materially and adversely affect our revenue.

New technologies may significantly reduce demand for wireless infrastructure and therefore negatively impact our revenue and future growth.

Improvements in the efficiency of wireless networks could reduce the demand for the MNO’s or tower companies’ wireless infrastructure. For example, signal combining technologies that permit one antenna to service multiple frequencies and, thereby, more customers, may reduce the need for wireless infrastructure. In addition, other technologies, such as Wi-Fi, femtocells, other small cells, or satellite (such as low earth orbiting) and mesh transmission systems may, in the future, serve as substitutes for, or alternatives to, leasing additional tower or antennae sites that might otherwise be anticipated as wireless infrastructure had such technologies not existed. Any significant reduction in wireless infrastructure leasing demand resulting from the previously mentioned technologies or other technologies could materially and adversely affect our revenue, financial condition and future growth.

Perceived health risks from radio frequency (“RF”) energy could reduce demand for wireless communications services.

The U.S. and other governments impose requirements and other guidelines relating to exposure to RF energy. Exposure to high levels of RF energy can cause negative health effects. The potential connection between exposure

17

to low levels of RF energy and certain negative health effects, including some forms of cancer, has been the subject of substantial study by the scientific community. According to the U.S. Federal Communications Commission, the results of these studies to date have been inconclusive. However, public perception of possible health risks associated with cellular and other wireless communications media could slow the growth of MNOs, which could in turn slow our growth. In particular, negative public perception of, and regulations regarding, health risks could cause a decrease in the demand for wireless communications, which could materially and adversely affect the demand for our assets, the revenue that we are able to generate, and the rate of growth in our business. Moreover, if a connection between exposure to low levels of RF energy and possible negative health effects, including cancer, were demonstrated, we could be subject to numerous claims relating to exposure to RF energy and, even if such claims ultimately had no merit, our financial condition could be materially and adversely affected by having to defend such claims.

Risks Relating to our Business

We may become involved in expensive litigation or other contentious legal proceedings relating to our real property interests and contractual rights, the outcome of which is unpredictable and could require us to change our business model in certain jurisdictions or exit certain markets altogether.

The tenants under our Tenant Leases are typically MNO’s and tower companies that may have competitive or other concerns regarding the assignment of the right to receive lease payments to us from the site owners, and as a result some of these tenants may challenge our real property interests and contractual rights. For example, MNO’s and tower companies have challenged certain of our real property interests in Brazil, Chile, Colombia and the Netherlands and alleged that the grant of the real property interest in the land underlying the wireless tower or antennae violated either a contractual non-assignment provision or a statutory pre-emptive right. In Hungary, a regulatory agency has initiated an inquiry that may result in new regulations on some of our activities. In addition, certain MNOs in Canada have filed claims alleging that our business and marketing practices constitute harassment of the landlords, defamation of the carriers and interference of their site leases. In addition, under eminent domain laws (or equivalent laws in jurisdictions outside of the United States), governments can take real property without the owner’s consent, sometimes for less compensation than the owner believes the property is worth. If these or similar claims are successful, we may not be able to continue to operate in those jurisdictions using our current business model, or at all, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to acquire new assets or grow our business as planned.

Any litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved favorably, could require us to incur substantial costs and be a distraction to management. Also, such litigation could be used as a nuisance to disrupt our business. Litigation results are highly unpredictable, particularly in some of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Even if we believe we have a strong legal basis to defend such claims, we may not prevail in any litigation or other proceeding in which we may become involved. If we are unsuccessful in defending claims by our tenants relating to our business model in a

21

particular jurisdiction, it may be difficult or impossible to continue operations in those jurisdictions, or we may incur significant additional expense to adjust our business model in response to any legal order or judgment, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Competition for assets could adversely affect our ability to achieve our anticipated growth.

If we are unable to make accretive acquisitions of real property interests and contractual rights in the revenue streams of Tenant Leases, our growth could be limited. As none of the individual revenue streams that we acquire are material, our business model requires us to identify and negotiate a significant number of new interests each year in order to deliver material growth. We may experience increased competition for these assets from new entrants to the industry. Further, in some jurisdictions, including Europe, the number of wireless towers and antennae owned by tower companies, as compared to MNOs, is growing quickly. These tower companies may be more likely to seek to own or control the land underlying their tower as that is their asset or service as compared to the MNOs who have traditionally allocated their capital to network development rather than acquisition of the underlying real property. This could make the acquisition of high-quality assets significantly more costly or prohibitive. The wireless tower companies aremay be larger than us and may have greater financial resources than we do, while other competitors may apply less stringent investment criteria than we do. Higher prices for assets or the failure to add new assets to our portfolio could make it more difficult to achieve our anticipated returns on investment or future growth, which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

18

If the Tenant Leases for the wireless communication tower or antennae located on our real property interests are not renewed with similar rates or at all, our future revenue may be materially affected.

A significant portion (approximately 16.5%16% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 20212022 and 14.8%14% of annualized in-place rents as of December 31, 2021)2022) of the Tenant Leases located on communications sites on which we hold a property interest are either hold-over leases or will be subject to renewal over the next 12 months. The MNOs and tower companies are under no obligation to renew their ground or rooftop leases. In addition, there is no assurance that such tenants will renew their current leases with similar terms or rental rates even if they do want to renew. The extension, renewal or replacement of existing leases depends on a number of factors, several of which are beyond our control, including the level of existing and new competition in markets in which we operate; the macroeconomic factors affecting lease economics for our current and potential customers; the balance of supply and demand on a short-term, seasonal and long-term basis in our markets; the extent to which customers are willing to contract on a long-term basis and the effects of international, federal, state or local regulations on the contracting practices of our customers. Unsuccessful negotiations could potentially reduce revenue generated from the assets. As a result, we may not fully recognize the anticipated benefits of the assets that we acquire, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flow. For a definition of annualized in-place rents and a comparison to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, revenue, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Most of the Tenant Leases associated with our assets may be terminated upon limited notice by the MNO or tower company, and unexpected lease cancellations could materially impact cash flow from operations.

Most of the Tenant LeaseLeases associated with our assets permitspermit the MNO or tower company tenant to cancel the lease at any time with limited prior written notice, typically requiring the tenant to provide only 30 to 180 days’ advance notification to terminate the lease. Cancellations are determined by the tenants themselves in their sole discretion. For instance, sites are independently assessed by tenants for their ability to provide coverage. This assessment is made prior to construction or installation of the asset and there is no guarantee such coverage will remain static in the future due to independent developments, technological developments, property and infrastructure developments (e.g.(e.g., construction

22

of new buildings and roads), foliage growth or other physical changes in the landscape that are unforeseeable and out of our control. We have previously experienced terminations and cancellations of leases for the following reasons:

Such results could lead to site removal or relocation, leading to a reduction in our revenue. Any significant number of cancellations will adversely affect our revenue and cash flow.

If we are unable to protect and enforce our real property interests in, or contractual rights to, the revenue streams generated by leases on our communications sites, our business and operating results could be materially adversely affected.

Pursuant to our business model, we purchase the stream of future rental payments generated by an existing lease, and that will be generated by future leases, between a site owner and an owner or operator of a wireless communications tower or wireless antennae. As a lease generating such revenue stream already exists, our business model effectively puts us in the position of landlord without the consent of the MNO or tower operator. Where possible, we seek to purchase an “in rem” real property interest in the land underlying the wireless tower or antennae, typically easements, usufructs, leasehold and sub-leasehold interests, and fee simple interests. If that is not feasible due to local legal requirements or commercial limitations, we will purchase a contractual assignment of rents. As we are one of the first companies to develop an asset portfolio of revenue streams from existing wireless communications sites in some of the jurisdictions in which we operate, the “in rem” right that we have purchased has not traditionally been used in a commercial context. Consequently, our real property rights may be subject to challenge by third parties, including the

19

MNOs or tower companies that are counterparties to the underlying site leases, or become subject to new regulations. Further, where we have rooftop easements (or comparable property interests), we are subject to the risk that the underlying property owners may block access to the rooftop. If we cannot enforce our real property and contractual rights, particularly to the extent any claim or regulatory constraint impacts a large number of our assets, our business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Due to the long-term expectations of revenue from our assets, our results are sensitive to the creditworthiness and financial strength of our tenants and their sub-lessees.

We have purchased, for an upfront fee, the future revenue stream pursuant to the underlying Tenant Leases and subsequent leases and do not have recourse to the site owner if the tenant fails to make such future payments (absent fraud or breach of contractual representations or covenants by such site owner). Due to the long-term nature of most cell site leases, including the Tenant Leases and their sub-leases, our financial performance is dependent on the continued financial strength of the tenants, including the MNOs, tower companies and other owners of structures where we own the attached property rights, many of whom operate with substantial leverage. Many tenants and potential tenants rely on capital raising activities to fund their operations and capital expenditures, and downturns in the economy or disruptions in the financial and credit markets may make it more difficult and more expensive to raise capital. If, as a result of a prolonged economic downturn or otherwise, one or more of our tenants experienced financial difficulties or filed for bankruptcy, such an event could result in uncollectible accounts receivable and an impairment of our deferred rent asset. In addition, it could result in the loss of significant customers and all or a portion of our anticipated lease revenue from certain tenants, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, if the Tenant Lease tenants or sub-lessees (or potential tenants or sub-lessees) are unable to raise adequate capital to fund their business plans, they may reduce their spending, file for

23

bankruptcy, or terminate operations, which could materially and adversely affect demand for the communications sites and the rental rates that we will be able to charge upon renewal.

Certain of our real property interests are subordinated to senior debt such as mortgages on the underlying properties.

The real property interests and contractual rights we purchase typically relate to a portion of a larger parcel of land that is owned by the site owner from whom we acquired the interests or rights. As a result, mortgages and other encumbrances, including any tax liens, which attach to the parcel as a whole, may also attach to or have enforcement priority over our interests or rights. We make an effort to target investment opportunities that are free from mortgages and other encumbrances. Where that option is not available, we make an effort to obtain non-disturbance agreements or locally comparable protections on the real property interests we acquire on mortgaged sites, but sometimes we are unable to do so. Under certain circumstances and in the absence of a non-disturbance agreement or locally comparable protections, if the underlying property owner fails to comply with or make payments under debt arrangements that grant creditors with claims on the property that are senior to ours, an event of default may result, which would allow the creditors to foreclose on any of our real property interests and contractual rights associated with that site. Any such default or foreclosure could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flow.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

The COVID-19 pandemic has spread worldwide, including to each of the jurisdictions in which we operate, has had a negative impact on economic conditions globally, and there are concerns for a prolonged or repeat deterioration of global financial conditions. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in protracted volatility in international markets and a decline in global economic conditions, including as a consequence of disruptions to travel and retail segments, tourism and manufacturing supply chains. Beginning in March 2020, we took measures to mitigate the broader public health risks associated with COVID-19 to our business and employees, including through office closures and self-isolation of employees where possible in line with the recommendations of relevant health authorities. However, the full extent and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and the adverse impact it may have on our workforce and operations continues to remain unknown. Although we have begun reopening offices as vaccine and booster availability has become more widespread, there can be no certainty that we will not have to again close our offices as result of the pandemic. In addition, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, there have been and may continue to be short-term impacts on our ability to acquire new rental streams. For example, leasing transactions in certain civil law

20

jurisdictions, such as certain Latin American countries, often require the notarization of legal documents in person as part of the closing procedure. Government-imposed restrictions on the opening of offices and/or self-isolation measures, particularly in Latin American countries, have had, and may continue to have an adverse impact on the availability of notaries or other legal service providers. Similarly, government-imposed travel restrictions may impair our employees’ ability to conduct physical inspections of cell-site infrastructure which are part of our normal transaction underwriting process.

The extent to which COVID-19 may continue to impact the results of operations and financial condition of the Company and our tenants will depend on numerous evolving factors that we cannot predict, including the duration and scope of the pandemic; governmental, business and individuals’ actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to the pandemic; the availability, distribution and efficacy of vaccines (including boosters); the rise of new or mutated strains of COVID-19 (such as the delta or omicron variant) or a similar virus (including vaccine-resistant strains); the impact of the pandemic on global economic activity and financial markets, including the possibility of a global recession and volatility in the global capital markets which, among other things, may increase the cost of capital and adversely impact our access to capital. For example, global macro-economic conditions have resulted in fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and heightened volatility in foreign currency exchange rates across multiple currencies. These impacts, individually or collectively, could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition as the pandemic continues. Further, the impact of COVID-19 may heighten or exacerbate many of the other risks discussed in this Form 10-K, any of which could have a material impact on us.

The tenants on the Tenant Leases underlying our assets may be exposed to force majeure events and other unforeseen events for which their insurance may not provide adequate coverage.

The communications sites underlying our real property interests and contract rights are subject to risks associated with natural disasters, such as ice and windstorms, fires, tornadoes, floods, hurricanes and earthquakes, as well as cyber-attacks, terrorism and other unforeseen damage. During the past several years, we have seen an increase in severe weather events, and expect this trend to continue due to climate change. Substantially all of the leases in our portfolio allow the tenants either to terminate the lease or to withhold rent payments until the site is restored to its original condition should such a disaster cause damage to one of these communications sites or the equipment on such site. While tenants generally maintain insurance coverage for natural disasters, they may not have adequate insurance to cover the associated costs of repair or reconstruction for a future major event. Furthermore, while all of the Tenant Leases require that the tenants have access to the communications site, we often must rely on the site owners to take all the necessary steps to restore access to the site. In the event of any damage to the communications equipment, federal, state and local regulations may restrict the ability to repair or rebuild damaged towers or antennae. If the tenants are unwilling or unable to repair or rebuild due to damage, we may experience losses in revenue due to terminated leases and/or lease payments that are withheld pursuant to the terms of the Tenant Lease while the site is repaired.

A substantial portion of our revenue is derived from a small number of MNOs or tower companies in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate, and the loss, consolidation or financial instability of any of our limited number of customers may materially decrease revenue.

In each of the jurisdictions in which we operate, there are a small number of MNOs or tower companies. Consequently, the loss of any one of our large customers as a result of consolidation, merger, bankruptcy, insolvency, network sharing, roaming, joint development, resale agreements with other MNOs or otherwise may result in (i) a material decrease in our revenue, (ii) uncollectible account receivables, (iii) an impairment of our deferred site rental receivables, site rental contracts, customer relationships or intangible assets or (iv) other adverse effects on our business. Additionally, the rental payments due to us from foreign affiliates and subsidiaries of large, nationally recognized MNOs or tower companies may not provide for full recourse to the larger, more creditworthy parent entities affiliated with our lessees.

We may not be able to consummate or successfully integrate future acquisitions into our business, which could result in unanticipated expenses and losses.

Part of our strategy ishas been to seek to grow through acquisitions of portfolios of assets or entities that are engaged in similar or complementary businesses. Our ability successfully to implement our acquisition strategy will depend on our ability to identify, negotiate, complete and integrate acquisitions and, if necessary, to obtain satisfactory debt or equity financing to fund those acquisitions. Mergers and acquisitions are inherently risky, and any mergers and acquisitions

21

that we complete may not be successful. The process of integrating a large portfolio of assets or an acquired company’s business into our operations is challenging and may result in expected or unexpected operating

24

or compliance challenges, which may require significant expenditures and a significant amount of management’s attention that would otherwise be focused on the ongoing operation of our business. The potential difficulties or risks of integrating an acquired company’s business that could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations include the following, which risks can be magnified when one or more integrations are occurring simultaneously or within a small period of time:

Although our real property and contractual interests generally do not make us contractually responsible for the payment of real property taxes, in our U.S. operations, if the responsible party fails to pay real property taxes, the resulting tax lien could put our real property interest in jeopardy.

A significant majority of our real property and contractual interests (70%(60% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 20212022 and 65%55% of annualized in-place rents as of December 31, 2021)2022) are subject to triple net or effectively triple net lease arrangements under which we are not responsible for paying real property taxes. In the United States, if the property owner or tenant fails to pay real property taxes, any lien resulting from such unpaid taxes would be senior to our real property interest or contract rights in the applicable site. Failure of the property owner or tenant to pay such real property taxes could result in our real property interest or contract rights being impaired or extinguished, or we may be forced to incur costs and pay the real property tax liability to avoid impairment of our assets. Internationally, although our real property interests would typically be senior to any subsequent tax lien, those assets that are contractual rights (such as an assignment of rents) could be subject to liens and be deemed subordinate to such governmental claims.

The failure of the property owner or tenant to maintain the property or infrastructure assets could result in a diminution of our real property and contractual interest, which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations.

A significant majority of our real property and contractual interests (70% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 and 65% of annualized in-place rents as of December 31, 2021) are subject to triple net or effectively triple net lease arrangements under which weWe are not responsible for maintenance expenditures related to the property or infrastructure.infrastructure for real property and contractual interests subject to triple net or effectively triple net lease arrangements. Failure of the property owner or tenant to maintain the property or infrastructure could result in a diminution of our real property and contractual interests, or we may be forced to incur costs to maintain the property to avoid diminution of our assets. For example, the placement and performance of wireless transmissions might be impaired in a situation where a structure is not adequately maintained by the property owner, which would result in a diminution of the property. A diminution of the property could materially and adversely affect our results of operations through losses in revenue due to terminated Tenant Leases and/or lease payments that are withheld, lower lease renewal rates, the inability to lease the property, costs to maintain the assets and costs related to litigation related to the diminution of the property. For a definition of annualized in-place rents and a comparison to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, revenue, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Security breaches and other disruptions could compromise our information, which would cause our business and reputation to suffer.

As part of our day-to-day operations, we rely on information technology and other computer resources and infrastructure to carry out important business activities and to maintain our business records. We utilize both cloud infrastructure as well as on-premise systems physically located in our offices. These systems are subject to interruption or damage from power outages, internet service provider failures, computer viruses, security breaches, errors, catastrophic events such as natural disasters and other events beyond our control whichthat could halt or impede our business activities. Depending on the nature and scope of the incident, backups might have to be restored in order to resume business. In extreme events, backup systems could become compromised as well.

If such systems and backup systems are compromised, degraded, damaged or breached, or otherwise cease to function properly, we could suffer interruptions in our operations or unintentionally allow misappropriation of proprietary or confidential information including information about the MNOs or tower companies or the site owners. This could damage our reputation and disrupt operations, which could adversely affect our business and operating results.

If we were to lose the services of certain members of senior management, it could negatively affect our business.

Our senior management developed our business model, have been integral in implementing this model in the jurisdictions in which we operate, and have deep industry relationships and knowledge. Our success depends to a significant extent upon the performance and active participation of our senior management key personnel. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in retaining the services of members of our senior management. Although we have employment agreements with certain members of our senior management, these agreements do not ensure that those officers will continue with us in their current capacity for any particular period of time. If any of our key personnel were to leave or retire, we may not be able to find an appropriate replacement on a timely basis and our results of operations could be negatively affected.

Increased scrutiny and changing expectations from investors, lenders, employees, and others regarding our ESG practices and reporting could cause us to incur additional costs, devote additional resources and expose us to additional risks, which could adversely impact our reputation, asset and employee acquisition and retention, and access to capital.

Companies across all industries are facing increasing scrutiny related to their ESG practices and reporting. Investors, lenders, employees, and other stakeholders have begun to focus increasingly on ESG practices and to place increasing importance on the implications and social cost of their investments and business decisions. For example, an increasing number of investment funds focus on positive ESG practices and sustainability scores when making an investment decision. In addition, investors, particularly institutional investors, use ESG practices and scores to benchmark

26

companies against their peers and if a company is perceived as lagging, such investors may engage with a company to improve ESG disclosure or performance and may also make voting decisions on this basis. Given this increased focus and demand, public reporting regarding ESG practices is becoming more broadly expected. If our ESG practices and reporting do not meet investor, lender, or employee expectations, which continue to evolve, our reputation and asset acquisition and employee retention may be negatively impacted. Any disclosure we make may include our policies and practices on a variety of ESG matters, including human capital management, corporate governance, environmental compliance, employee health and safety practices, and workforce inclusion and diversity. It is possible that stakeholders may not be satisfied with our ESG reporting, our ESG practices or our speed of adoption. We could also incur additional costs and devote additional resources to monitoring, reporting and implementing various ESG practices. Our failure, or perceived failure, to meet the goals and objectives we set in any sustainability disclosure or the expectations of our various stakeholders could negatively impact our reputation, asset and employee retention, and access to capital.

Risks Relating to our Financial Performance or General Economic Conditions

We have a history of net losses and negative net cash flow; if we continue to grow at an accelerated rate, we may be unable to achieve profitability or positive cash flow at a company level (as determined in accordance with GAAP) for the foreseeable future.

We and the Predecessor had an accumulated deficit as of December 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, net losses for the yearyears ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and for the Successor period from February 10, 2020 to December 31, 2020 of $64.0 million, $69.7 million and $191.9 million, respectively, and net income of $6.2 million for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2020 to February 9, 2020. For the yearyears ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and for the Successor period from February 10, 2020 to December 31, 2020, we had negative cash flows from operating activities of $13.1 million, $14.5 million and $42.5 million, respectively, and negative cash flows from investing activities of $572.6 million, $470.7 million and $436.3 million, respectively. For

23

the Predecessor period from January 1, 2020 to February 9, 2020, we had negative operating cash flows of $3.5 million and negative cash flows from investing activities of $22.6 million, respectively. Our accumulated deficit and net losses have historically resulted primarily from expenses incurred in acquiring assets, recognizing depreciation and amortization in connection with the properties we own and interest expense. Our negative cash flows have historically resulted from the substantial investments required to grow our business, including the significant increase in recent periods in the number of assets we have acquired. We expect that these costs and investments will continue to increase as we continue to grow our business. These expenditures will make it more difficult for us to achieve profitability and positive cash flow from operations and investing activities, and we cannot predict whether we will achieve profitability for the foreseeable future.

Our results may be negatively affected by foreign currency exchange rates.

We conduct our business and incur costs in the local currencies inof the countries in which we operate and, as a result, are subject to foreign exchange exposure due to changes in exchange rates, both as a result of translation and transaction risks.

We are exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent that we enter into transactions denominated in currencies other than our functional currencies (non-functional currency risk), such as our indebtedness. For example, we generate revenue from our Brazilian operations, which are denominated in Brazilian reals, while the indebtedness that fundsfunded those operations is presently denominated in Euros.Euros and Pound Sterling. Although we generally seek to match the currency of our obligations with the functional currency of the operations supporting those obligations, we are not always able to match the currency of our costs and expenses with the currency of our revenues. Changes in exchange rates with respect to amounts recorded in our consolidated financial statements related to these items will result in unrealized (based upon period-end exchange rates) or realized foreign currency transaction gains and losses upon settlement of the transactions.

Although substantially all of our operations are conducted in the local currency of the countries in which we operate, we are also exposed to unfavorable and potentially volatile fluctuations of the U.S. dollarDollar (our reporting currency), against the currencies of our operating subsidiaries when their respective financial statements are translated into U.S. dollarsDollars for inclusion in our consolidated financial statements. Increasing exchange rate risk has been brought on by external factors such as increasing interest rates in the United States, as well as internal factors as a consequence of high fiscal and external deficits in some of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Volatility in exchange rates can

27

affect our reported revenue, margins and stockholders’ equity both positively and negatively and can make our results difficult to predict. Cumulative translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive earnings or loss as a separate component of equity. Any increase (or decrease) in the value of the U.S. dollarDollar against any foreign currency that is the functional currency of one of our operating subsidiaries will cause us to experience unrealized foreign currency translation losses (gains) with respect to amounts already invested in such foreign currencies. Accordingly, we may experience a positive or negative impact on our comprehensive earnings or loss and equity solely as a result of foreign currency translation. The APW Group’sAP Wireless’s primary exposure to exchange rate risk during the year ended December 31, 20212022 was to the Euro and British pound sterling,Pound Sterling, representing 39%45% and 23%19% of our reported revenue during the period, respectively. In addition, our reported operating results are impacted by changes in the exchange rates for the Brazilian real, Chilean peso, Australian dollar,Dollar, Mexican peso, Canadian dollar,Dollar, Colombian peso, Hungarian forint, Uruguayan Peso and Romanian leu. We generally do not hedge against the risk that we may incur non-cash losses upon the translation of financial statements of our subsidiaries and affiliates into U.S. dollars;Dollars; however, even if we were to enter into such hedges, they may not be effective to off-set any such non-cash losses.

24

We have incurred a significant amount of debt and may in the future incur additional indebtedness. Our payment obligations under such indebtedness may, in the longer term, limit the funds available to us.

As of December 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, we had total outstanding indebtedness of $1,295.5$1,536.4 million and $738.3$1,295.5 million, respectively, the majority of which was secured through multiple liens, pledges and other security interests on our assets. Our ability to make scheduled payments or refinance our obligations depends on our financial condition and operating performance, which are subject to prevailing economic and competitive conditions and to certain financial, business, legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond our control. Taking into consideration our current cash on hand and our available credit facilities, including the maturity of such facilities, we do not believe our ability to service our debt and sustain our operations will be materially affected for at least a 12-month period following the date of this Form 10-K. In addition, we believe that our cash on hand, available restricted cash and future cash from operations of the APW Group,AP Wireless, together with our access to and the credit and capital markets, will provide adequate resources to provide both short-term and long-term liquidity. However, in the longer term, we may be unable to maintain a level of cash flows from operating activities sufficient to permit us to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on our indebtedness and to pursue growth. If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient in the longer term to fund our obligations, we could face substantial liquidity problems and could be forced to reduce or delay investments and capital expenditures or to dispose of material assets or operations, seek additional debt or equity capital or restructure or refinance our indebtedness and other obligations or our lenders could seek to foreclose on our assets or could also sell all or substantially all of our assets under such foreclosure or other realization upon those encumbrances without prior approval of our stockholders. In the longer term, we may not be able to effect any such alternative measures, if necessary, on commercially reasonable terms or at all and, even if successful, those alternative actions may not allow us to meet our scheduled debt obligations. For more information about our debt obligations, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Operations–Liquidity and Capital Resources”.

The terms of our debt agreements may restrict our flexibility in operating our business.

Under certain of our existing debt instruments, we and certain of our subsidiaries are subject to limitations regarding our business and operations, including limitations on the amounts of certain types of assets that can be acquired or the jurisdictions in which assets can be acquired, limitations on incurring additional indebtedness and liens, limitations on certain consolidations, mergers and sales of assets, and restrictions on the payment of dividends or distributions. Any debt financing that we secure in the future could involve additional restrictive covenants relating to our capital-raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions.

These restrictions could limit our ability to plan for or react to market conditions, meet extraordinary capital needs or otherwise take actions that we believe are in our best interests. Further, a failure by us to comply with any of these covenants and restrictions could result in an event of default that, if not waived or cured, could result in the acceleration of all or a substantial portion of the outstanding indebtedness thereunder. For more information about our debt

28

obligations and the covenants and restrictions thereunder, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Operations–Liquidity and Capital Resources”.

Our growth strategy requires access to new capital, which could be impaired by unfavorable capital markets.

Our growth strategy requires significant capital as we primarily purchase for an upfront fee the future stream of rental payments. Any limitations on access to new capital will impair our ability to execute our growth strategy. If the cost of capital becomes too expensive, our ability to grow will be limited. We may not be able to raise the necessary funds on satisfactory terms, if at all. To the extent that we raise capital through issuance of equity, our stockholders may suffer significant dilution. To the extent that we raise capital through additional debt, that debt (i) may adversely affect our profitability, (ii) may be secured and (iii) would rank senior to any of our equity. We have historically raised a significant portion of our capital through the issuance of secured debt, which has a lower coupon rate than unsecured debt, but our ability to obtain secured debt in the future to execute our growth strategy is subject to our having sufficient assets eligible for securitization that are not subject to prior securitization from our existing debt. Weak economic conditions and volatility and disruption in the financial markets, including as a result of unforeseen events such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, could increase the cost of raising money in the debt and equity capital markets substantially while diminishing the availability of funds from those markets, which could materially impact our ability to implement our growth strategy.

25

AnA continued increase in market interest rates could increase our interest costs on future debt, reduce the value of our assets and affect the growth of our business, all of which may materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Fluctuations in interest rates may negatively impact our business. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors beyond our control, including general economic conditions, both domestic and foreign, and the monetary and fiscal policies of various governmental and regulatory authorities. IfInterest rates in the countries in which we operate have recently increased significantly from historic lows and may continue to increase in the future. As we continue to raise debt to help fund our business operations, if interest rates continue to increase or stay at higher than recent levels, so could our interest expense for new debt, making the financing of new assets costlier. We may incurcostlier, and so would our interest expense on any variable interest rate indebtedness, in the future.which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations Rising interest rates could limit our ability to refinance existing debt when it matures or cause us to pay higher interest rates upon refinancing and increased interest expense on refinanced indebtedness. From time to time, we may manage our exposure to interest rate risk with interest rate hedge contracts that effectively fix or cap a portion of our debt. There can be no assurance that any hedging activities we may use will have the desired beneficial impact on our results of operations or financial condition, and if interest rates decrease, the fair market value of any existing interest rate hedge contracts on outstanding fixed-rate debt would decline.

Changes in interest rates may also affect the value of our assets and affect our ability to acquire new assets as site owners may be more reluctant to sell their interests during times of higher interest rates or may demand a higher cost than we have historically paid for our assets. If we cannot acquire additional assets at appropriate prices and returns or determine to pay higher amounts for additional assets, we will not be able to grow revenue to the extent expected, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial results and condition.

Our efforts to manage these exposures may not be successful. Developing an effective interest rate risk strategy is complex and no strategy can completely insulate us from risks associated with interest rate fluctuations.

Our revenue is primarily derived from lease payments due from MNOs and tower operators; consequently, a slowdown in the demand for wireless communication services may adversely affect our business.

Our assets consist primarily of real property interests in wireless communications sites and contractual rights to the revenue stream generated from Tenant Leases. If consumers significantly reduce their minutes of use or data usage or fail to widely adopt and use wireless data applications or new technologies, MNOs could experience a decrease in demand for their services. In addition, delays or changes in the roll out of new spectrum or deployment of new technologies could reduce consumer demand.demand and otherwise materially and adversely affect our future growth and revenues. To the extent that that the demand for wireless communications services decreases, the owners and operators of wireless communications towers and antennae may be less willing or able to invest additional capital in their networks and may even reduce the number of wireless communications sites in their networks, all of which could

29

materially and adversely affect the demand for our assets, the revenue that we are able to generate, and the rate of growth in our business.

We may enter into additional credit agreements or mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or grant a security interest in all or a portion of our assets without prior approval of our stockholders.

We expect to incur additional debt to finance our operations all or a portion of which will be secured by a lien on our assets. We anticipate that the leverage we employ will vary depending on our ability to sell additional Company debt, obtain credit facilities, the targeted leveraged return we expect from our portfolio and our ability to meet ongoing covenants related to our asset mix and financial performance. Our results of operations and cash flow may be materially adversely affected to the extent that changes in market conditions cause the cost of our future financings to increase. Any significant indebtedness incurred by us or our subsidiaries could have the following material consequences, among others:
