AT&T INC. (T)

AT&T Inc. is a Delaware-incorporated holding company headquartered in Dallas, Texas, formed from the historic Bell System breakup and shaped by major transactions including mergers with Pacific Telesis, Ameritech, AT&T Corp. and BellSouth, the acquisition and later divestiture of DIRECTV and Vrio, and the 2022 separation of WarnerMedia. Today AT&T operates as a leading global telecommunications and technology services provider organized into two reportable segments: Communications and Latin America. The Communications segment, which generated about 97% of 2024 segment revenue, includes three business units—Mobility, which provides nationwide wireless voice, data and equipment sales to postpaid, prepaid and reseller subscribers (118 million subscribers at year-end 2024) under AT&T, Cricket and AT&T PREPAID brands, including FirstNet public-safety broadband services; Wireline, which serves multinational corporations, small and mid-sized businesses, and government and wholesale customers with fiber and other advanced connectivity (dedicated internet, ethernet, fixed wireless, hosted/managed services) as well as declining legacy voice and data offerings; and Consumer Wireline, which delivers residential broadband (over 9.3 million fiber subscribers and 15.3 million total broadband connections at year-end 2024), fixed wireless access via AT&T Internet Air, and legacy telephony to roughly 14.1 million broadband customers, while actively decommissioning copper infrastructure.

The Latin America segment, contributing about 3% of segment revenue, provides postpaid and prepaid wireless voice and data services to approximately 24 million subscribers in Mexico under the AT&T and Unefon brands, competing as one of three facilities-based providers alongside América Móvil. AT&T's products span smartphones, wireless data devices, accessories and customer premises equipment sold through company-owned stores, agents, third-party retailers and online channels, with revenue drawn from wireless service, wireline service, broadband, legacy voice/data, and equipment sales. The company is investing heavily in 5G spectrum deployment (covering over 314 million people in North America) and Open RAN technology in partnership with Ericsson, alongside continued fiber network expansion, positioning convergence of 5G and fiber as its core growth strategy.

AT&T faces competition from national and regional wireless carriers, cable companies, satellite and internet-based service providers, and other telecommunications firms across its wireless, broadband, and legacy voice and data markets, operates under FCC and state regulatory oversight in the U.S. and national regulatory authorities abroad, and reported no single customer accounting for 10% or more of consolidated revenue in 2024, 2023, or 2022.
