A significant event during the period was the completion of the sale of its India operations (ATC TIPL) for approximately $2.2 billion, which resulted in a substantial loss from discontinued operations of $1.21 billion for the quarter and $978.3 million for the nine-month period. This divestiture, alongside other operational factors, led to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $(792.3) million ($1.69 per share) for the quarter, a notable shift from a net income of $586.9 million ($1.26 per share) in the prior year quarter.

Aug 4, 2011American Tower Corporation (AMT) has filed its 10-Q for the period ending June 29, 2011. The filing highlights significant risks related to demand for its communication sites, tenant consolidation, technological changes, and international operations. A substantial portion of the company's revenue comes from a few key customers, making it sensitive to their financial health. Notably, the company is preparing to elect REIT status effective January 1, 2012, which introduces a complex set of new risks and considerations, including potential corporate taxes, limitations on business activities, and strict distribution requirements.

The company's international operations account for approximately 25% of its consolidated revenue, exposing it to currency fluctuations and varying political and economic conditions. The significant leverage, with approximately $5.7 billion in consolidated debt as of June 30, 2011, is also a key concern, potentially limiting financial flexibility and increasing vulnerability to economic downturns.
