Description: LAMR Lamar Advertising October 31, 2025
Lamar Advertising (NASDAQ:LAMR) is a U.S.-based REIT that operates one of North America’s largest out-of-home (OOH) networks, with roughly 366 k static and digital displays spanning the United States and Canada. Its product mix includes traditional billboards, interstate logos, transit shelters, and airport signage, while its digital portfolio-about 5.2 k screens-represents the nation’s most extensive digital-billboard footprint, enabling real-time ad updates and data-driven targeting.
Recent quarterly filings (Q2 2024) show LAMR generating $1.18 billion in revenue, with a 34 % EBITDA margin, reflecting the higher yield of digital inventory versus legacy assets. The company’s same-store sales growth was 5.1 % YoY, driven by a rebound in advertising spend as the U.S. consumer-price index cooled and discretionary budgets recovered. A key sector driver is the ongoing shift of national advertisers toward programmatic OOH, which is expected to lift digital-screen utilization rates by an estimated 8 % annually through 2027. However, the REIT’s performance remains sensitive to macro-economic variables such as interest-rate movements and regional traffic-pattern disruptions.
