Exhibit 99.1

Towerstream to Add 70 New On-Net Buildings in Q3

MIDDLETOWN, RI, September 22, 2016 – Towerstream Corporation (NASDAQ: TWER) (the “Company”), a leading Fixed-Wireless Fiber Alternative company, provided guidance for the quarter ending September 30, 2016.

● Towerstream is on track to add 70 buildings to its On-Net footprint in Q3. This is a 70% increase over new building additions in Q2 and brings total On-Net buildings to 335 at the end Q3.

● This brings the total number of businesses in the Company’s On-Net buildings to over 10,000, up 30% from 7,700 at close of Q2.

● The current On-Net building average monthly revenue is $1,102 and the current On-Net building penetration rate is 6%.

Management Comments

“There is a direct relationship in sales growth to the number of buildings On-Net,” stated Philip Urso, Interim Chief Executive Officer.

“Fixed-Wireless technology inherently provides a competitive advantage,” stated Arthur Giftakis, Chief Operating Officer. “The speed we can add buildings at our low cost gives us an unfair advantage over fiber and cable.”
