About OUTFRONT Media Inc.
Source: Item 1 (Business) from the 10-K filed February 26, 2026. Description as filed by the company with the SEC.
Item 1. Business.
Overview
OUTFRONT Media is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that provides advertising space (“displays”) on out-of-home advertising structures and sites in the United States (the “U.S.”), enabling advertisers to engage with audiences in high-impact in-real-life (“IRL”) moments and environments. We are one of the largest providers of advertising space on out-of-home advertising structures and sites across the U.S. Our inventory consists of billboard displays primarily located on the most heavily traveled highways and roadways in top Nielsen Designated Market Areas (“DMAs”), and transit advertising displays operated under exclusive multi-year contracts with municipalities in large cities across the U.S. In total, we have displays in approximately 120 markets across the U.S., including the 25 largest markets in the U.S. Our top market, location-focused portfolio includes sites in and around New York City, Los Angeles and San Francisco, where public spaces can turn into platforms for creativity, connection and cultural relevance. The breadth and depth of our portfolio provides our customers with a range of options to address their marketing objectives by elevating brand influence and credibility through enterprise or commercial brand-building campaigns.
In addition to providing location-based displays, we also focus on delivering mass and targeted audiences to our customers. We believe the continued evolution of out-of-home advertising audience measurement systems, including Geopath and alternative measurement systems, can enhance the value of the out-of-home medium, including transit inventory, by improving audience measurement and enabling more precise demographic and location-based targeting. As part of our investments in our technology platform, we are developing digital out-of-home offerings and capabilities that support full-funnel advertising objectives, including end-to-end campaign processing and automation, research and measurement, and demographic and location-based targeting.
Read full description ↓
We believe out-of-home continues to be an attractive and trusted form of advertising, as our displays have an IRL presence, are always viewable, and cannot be turned off, skipped, blocked or fast-forwarded. Further, out-of-home advertising can be an effective stand-alone medium, as well as an integral part of a campaign using multiple forms of media (including online, mobile and social media advertising platforms) that bridges commerce, culture and community. We provide our customers with a differentiated advertising solution at an attractive price point relative to other forms of advertising. In addition to leasing displays, we provide other value-added services to our customers, such as pre-campaign category research, consumer insights, print production, creative services and post-campaign tracking and analytics.
We generally (i) own the physical billboard structures on which we display advertising copy for our customers, (ii) hold the legal permits to display advertising thereon and (iii) lease the underlying sites. These lease agreements have terms varying between one month and multiple years, and usually provide renewal options. We estimate that approximately 75% of our billboard structures in the U.S. are “legal nonconforming” billboards, meaning they were legally constructed under laws in effect at the time they were built and remain legal to operate, but could not be constructed under current laws. These structures are often located in areas where it is difficult or not permitted to build additional billboards under current laws, which enhances the value of our portfolio. We have a highly diversified portfolio of advertising sites. As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately 19,100 lease agreements with approximately 17,500 different landlords. A substantial proportion of these lease agreements allow us to abate rent and/or terminate the lease agreement in certain circumstances, which may include when the structure is obstructed, when there is a change in traffic flow and/or when the advertising value of the sign structure is otherwise impaired, providing us with flexibility in renegotiating the terms of our leases with landlords in those circumstances.
We currently manage our operations through two reportable operating segments—(1) Billboard and (2) Transit. Prior to its sale in 2024, our Canadian operations comprised our International operating segment, which did not meet the criteria to be a reportable segment and accordingly, was included in Other. Historical operating results of our Canadian operations are included in Other (see Item 8., Note 20. Segment Information to the Consolidated Financial Statements) through the date of sale. See “—Acquisition and Disposition Activity.”
History
Our corporate history can be traced back to companies that helped to pioneer the growth of out-of-home advertising in the U.S., such as Outdoor Systems, Inc., 3M National, Gannett Outdoor and TDI Worldwide Inc. In 1996, a predecessor of CBS Corporation (“CBS”) acquired TDI Worldwide Inc., which specialized in transit advertising. Three years later, a predecessor of CBS acquired Outdoor Systems, Inc., which represented the consolidation of the outdoor advertising assets of large national

operators such as 3M National, Gannett Outdoor (and its Canadian assets held in the name Mediacom) and many local operators in North America.
On April 2, 2014, the Company completed an initial public offering (the “IPO”) of its common stock under the name “CBS Outdoor Americas Inc.” On July 16, 2014, CBS completed a registered offer to exchange 97,000,000 shares of our common stock that were owned by CBS for outstanding shares of CBS Class B common stock (“the Exchange Offer”). In connection with the Exchange Offer, CBS disposed of all of its shares of our common stock and as of July 16, 2014, we were separated from CBS (the “Separation”) and were no longer a subsidiary of CBS. On July 16, 2014, in connection with the Separation, we ceased to be a member of the CBS consolidated tax group, and on July 17, 2014, we began operating as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
On October 1, 2014, we completed the acquisition of certain outdoor advertising businesses of Van Wagner Communications, LLC, for a total purchase price of approximately $690.0 million in cash, plus working capital adjustments.
On November 20, 2014, the Company changed its legal name to “OUTFRONT Media Inc.” and its common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “OUT.”
On June 7, 2024, we completed the sale of all of our equity interests in Outdoor Systems Americas ULC and its subsidiaries (the “Transaction”), which held all of the assets of the Company’s outdoor advertising business in Canada (the “Canadian Business”). See “—Acquisition and Disposition Activity.”
Acquisition and Disposition Activity
We regularly evaluate potential acquisitions, ranging from small transactions to larger acquisitions.
On June 7, 2024, the Company completed the sale of the Canadian Business in the Transaction. In connection with the Transaction, the Company received C$410.0 million in cash, subject to certain purchase price adjustments. (See Item 8. Note 14. Acquisitions and Dispositions: Dispositions: Canadian Business.)
For additional information regarding our acquisition and disposition activity, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”
Tax Status
Our qualification to be taxed as a REIT is dependent on our ability to meet various complex requirements under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), related to, among other things, the sources of our gross income, the composition and values of our assets and the diversity of ownership of our shares. See “
