Board Chair P. Robert Bartolo said in a statement, “The Board determined that now is the right time to make this leadership transition to successfully complete the previously announced sale of the company’s small cells and fiber solutions businesses and transform the company into a pure-play U.S. tower business. “Looking ahead, Crown Castle will be well positioned to provide focused exposure to what we believe is the best market for wireless infrastructure in the world, and we are confident that installing new CEO leadership will put the company on the best path forward to maximize long-term shareholder value. The Board thanks Steven for his contributions to the company,” the statement said. Schlanger will continue to serve as the company’s CFO until April 1, at which time Sunit Patel will assume the role of EVP and CFO. Schlanger will serve as interim CEO until a successor CEO is identified and appointed, at which time the board intends to appoint him as Chief Transformation Officer, in which he will be responsible for overseeing the completion of the company’s sale of its small cells and fiber solutions businesses, which is expected to close in the first half of 2026. Bartolo’s statement continued, “Dan will leverage his in-depth knowledge of Crown Castle’s operations and his professional experience to complete the fiber transaction and ensure a smooth transition. He has been instrumental in helping shape Crown Castle’s strategy and is well equipped to lead the company while the board conducts a search for a CEO successor.” Moskowitz’s termination was not a result of any disagreement regarding Crown Castle’s policies or financial performance and was not made for cause or related to any ethical or compliance concern.
