CSAL

Communications Sales & Leasing Inc.

A communications-infrastructure company that owns and leases fiber-optic networks and other telecom assets to service providers, acting as a landlord for the cables that carry calls and internet. It was created in 2015 as a spin-off from Windstream, with its straightforward name matching the business of buying and renting out network assets. In a quirky twist, the company later merged back together with its former parent Windstream, reuniting the pair about a decade after they split.

Common stock — Renamed to Uniti Group Inc. (UNIT) in Feb 2017
