Recent developments include the October 2025 sale of 22 tower sites to GTC Uno, LLC for $10.7 million, enabling continued tower usage without cash lease payments as part of an asset optimization strategy, with proceeds earmarked for potential stock buybacks at board discretion; in November 2025, the company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per share payable December 12, 2025, marking over $141 million in total dividends since 2012; additionally, Saga appointed Samuel D. Bush as Executive Vice President and Wayne Leland as Chief Operating Officer, alongside plans for ongoing capital allocation involving non-core asset sales and shareholder returns.
