It looks like you’re using ranging to discover your beacons. Ranging provides UUID, major, and minor, but no MAC address.

If you need the MAC address (what for, BTW?), you need to use the ESTUtilityManager’s discovery instead. But then you don’t get UUID, major, and minor. Utility manager is only meant to be used if you want to configure your beacons, as soon enough that’ll be the only way to connect to a beacon.
