GCI Holdings faces challenges related to pole attachments and spectrum usage. Pole attachments are regulated under the Communications Act, with federal regulations applying in twenty-seven states and state regulations in others, including Alaska, where the Regulatory Commission of Alaska (RCA) has used its own formula since 1987. Access to poles in rural areas can be difficult due to higher costs and slower permit approvals. Although the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has taken steps to standardize pole attachment rates, GCI Holdings does not anticipate these changes will affect its terms. Potential modifications to the RCA's formula or oversight could increase GCI Holdings' operational costs. Spectrum usage regulated by the FCC impacts GCI Holdings' microwave backhaul, WiFi, Citizens Broadband Radio Service, and mobile wireless networks in Alaska. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) reinstated the FCC's auction authority, requiring auctions of spectrum for commercial use, which may increase competition for GCI Holdings.
