    History
    AT&T, formerly known as SBC Communications Inc. (SBC), was formed as one of several regional holding companies created to hold AT&T Corp.’s (ATTC) local telephone companies. On January 1, 1984, we were spun-off from ATTC pursuant to an anti-trust consent decree, becoming an independent publicly traded telecommunications services provider.

    Following our formation, we expanded our communications footprint and operations, most significantly:
    Our subsidiaries merged with incumbent local exchange carriers (ILEC) Pacific Telesis Group in 1997 and Ameritech Corporation in 1999.
    In 2005, we merged one of our subsidiaries with ATTC, creating one of the world’s leading telecommunications providers. In connection with the merger, we changed the name of our company from “SBC Communications Inc.” to “AT&T Inc.”
    In 2006, we acquired ILEC BellSouth Corporation (BellSouth), which included BellSouth’s 40% economic interest in AT&T Mobility LLC (AT&T Mobility), formerly Cingular Wireless LLC, resulting in 100% ownership of AT&T Mobility.
    In 2014, we completed the acquisition of wireless provider Leap Wireless International, Inc.
    In 2015, we acquired wireless properties in Mexico and acquired DIRECTV, a leading provider of digital television entertainment services in both the United States (included in our former Video business) and Latin America (referred to as Vrio, which was sold in November 2021).
    In July 2021, we closed our transaction with TPG Capital (TPG) to form a new company named DIRECTV Entertainment Holdings, LLC (DIRECTV). With the close of the transaction (DIRECTV Transaction), we separated our Video business, comprised of our U.S. video operations, and began accounting for our investment in DIRECTV under the equity method. In July 2025, we sold our remaining interest in DIRECTV to TPG.

    General
    We are a leading provider of telecommunications and technology services globally. The services and products that we offer vary by market and utilize various technology platforms in a range of geographies. Our reportable segments are organized as follows:

    The Communications segment provides wireless and wireline telecom and broadband services to consumers located in the United States and businesses globally. Our business strategies reflect integrated product offerings that cut across product lines and utilize shared assets. This segment contains the following business units:
    Mobility provides nationwide wireless service and equipment.
    Business Wireline provides advanced ethernet-based fiber services, fixed wireless services, IP Voice and managed professional services, as well as legacy voice and data services and related equipment, to business customers.
    Consumer Wireline provides broadband services, including fiber connections that provide multi-gig services, and our fixed wireless access product (AT&T Internet Air or “AIA”) that provides internet services delivered over our 5G wireless network, to residential customers in select locations. Consumer Wireline also provides legacy telephony voice communication services.

    The Latin America segment provides wireless service and equipment in Mexico.

    Corporate support costs, including administrative support costs borne by AT&T where business units do not influence decision making, and results from business no longer integral to our operations are reported as Corporate and Other, which reconciles our segment results to consolidated operating income and income before income taxes.

    Areas of Focus
    We are a leader in providing connectivity services through our market focus areas of 5G and fiber. Fiber underpins the connectivity we deliver, both wired and wireless. Building on that fiber foundation is our solid spectrum portfolio, strengthened through Federal Communications Commission (FCC) auctions, other spectrum acquisitions and 5G deployment. We believe our fixed wireline and mobile approach will differentiate our services and provide us with additional convergence growth opportunities in the future as bandwidth demands continue to grow. We will continue to demonstrate our commitment to ensure management attention is sharply focused on growth areas and operational efficiencies.

    Our integrated telecommunications network utilizes different technological platforms to provide instant connectivity at the higher speeds made possible by our fiber network expansion and wireless network enhancements. Streaming, augmented reality, “smart” technologies, user generated content and artificial intelligence (AI) are expected to continue to drive greater demand for broadband, which we believe will allow us to capitalize on our fiber and 5G deployments. During 2026, we are focused on the core capabilities of our products, our infrastructure and our network. We will also focus on accelerating our fiber expansion, organically and through our pending acquisition of substantially all of Lumen’s Mass Markets fiber business. We will continue to deploy low- and mid-band spectrum to improve speed and capacity, including spectrum to be acquired from our pending transactions with EchoStar Corporation (EchoStar) and other spectrum acquisitions. Our concentration is to aggregate the most traffic on the largest, lowest marginal cost, converged network through efficient spectrum deployment and construction of the largest high-capacity broadband solutions in the United States, while also working with regulators and customers to decommission high-cost legacy technologies over the next several years.

    Wireless Service We continue to experience rapid growth in data usage as consumers are demanding seamless access across their wireless and wired devices, and businesses and municipalities are connecting an increasing number of equipment and facilities to the internet. The deployment of 5G, which allows for faster connectivity, lower latency and greater bandwidth, requires modifications of existing cell sites to add equipment supporting new frequencies, like the C-Band and the 3.45 GHz band. The increased speeds and network operating efficiency expected with 5G technology has enabled massive deployment of devices connected to the internet as well as faster delivery of data services. As the wireless industry has matured, with nearly full penetration of smartphones in the U.S. population, future wireless growth will depend on our ability to offer innovative services, plans and devices that bundle product offerings, add converged customer relationships and take advantage of our 5G wireless network.

    To support higher mobile data usage, our priority is to best utilize a wireless network that has sufficient spectrum and capacity to support these innovations on as broad a geographic basis as possible. We expect to continue to invest significant capital in expanding our network capacity, as well as obtaining additional spectrum, when needed and available, that meets our long-term needs. We participate in FCC spectrum auctions, acquire spectrum licenses from third parties as it becomes available and redeploy existing spectrum previously used for more basic services to support more advanced mobile internet services.

    In North America, our network covers over 441 million people with 4G LTE and over 322 million with 5G technology. In the United States, our network covers all major metropolitan areas and more than 337 million people with our LTE technology and more than 322 million people with our 5G technology.

    Broadband Technology Fiber is a core priority for our business and over the last several years we have enhanced our focus to expand our fiber footprint and grow customers. At December 31, 2025, we had 10.4 million fiber consumer wireline broadband customers, adding 1.1 million during the year. The expansion builds on our recent investments to convert to a software-based network, managing the migration of wireline customers to services using our fiber infrastructure to provide broadband technology. Software-based technologies align with our global leadership in software defined network (SDN) and network function virtualization (NFV). This network approach delivers a demonstrable cost advantage in the deployment of next-generation technology over the traditional, hardware-intensive network approach. Our virtualized network supports next-generation applications like 5G and broadband-based services quickly and efficiently. At December 31, 2025, we had 16.0 million broadband connections, compared to 15.3 million broadband connections in the prior year.

    In areas where fiber services are not available, in recent years we have offered fixed wireless access under our AT&T Internet Air (AIA) brand. At December 31, 2025, we had 1.5 million AIA connections, adding 875,000 during the year. With recent spectrum acquisitions, including our pending transaction with EchoStar we are expanding the capacity of the wireless network over which these services are provided to support this growth initiative.

    Copper Decommissioning While building the network of the future, we are actively working to exit our legacy copper network operations across the large majority of our wireline footprint. Our exit strategy includes migrating customers to fiber and wireless alternatives, and working with policy-makers to decommission our inefficient and less reliable copper network. At December 31, 2025, we had 2.1 million customer location switched access lines in service and 2.8 million legacy consumer internet connections compared to 2.7 million customer location switched access lines in service and 4.1 million legacy consumer internet connections in the prior year.

    BUSINESS OPERATIONS

    OPERATING SEGMENTS
    Our segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services over various technology platforms and/or in different geographies that are managed accordingly. We have two reportable segments: Communications and Latin America.

    Additional information about our segments, including financial information, is included under the heading “Segment Results” in Item 7 and in Note 4 of Item 8.

    OVERVIEW

    Operating revenues increased in 2025, reflecting higher Mobility and Consumer Wireline revenues, partially offset by declines in Business Wireline. Operating revenues in Mexico were also higher, overcoming unfavorable foreign exchange impacts during the first half of 2025.

    Operations and support expenses increased in 2025, reflecting higher sales volumes in our Mobility business unit, which drove higher equipment, advertising, selling and bad debt expenses. Also contributing to higher costs were approximately $440 of apportioned legal settlements during 2025, higher network-related expenses and advertising costs due to the launch of a new campaign in 2025. Increases were partially offset by declines from our continued transformation efforts and lower content licensing fees.

    Asset impairments and abandonments and restructuring decreased in 2025, with higher impairments in 2024. Noncash charges in 2024 primarily related to a goodwill impairment charge of $4,422 associated with our Business Wireline reporting unit as well as restructuring charges, including termination fees associated with our network modernization program to deploy commercial scale open radio access network (Open RAN). Expenses in 2025 primarily relate to restructuring severance charges.

    Depreciation and amortization expense increased in 2025, primarily due to ongoing capital spending for strategic initiatives such as fiber and network upgrades, partially offset by lower depreciation from fully depreciated legacy assets and impacts from our Open RAN network modernization efforts.

    Operating income increased in 2025 and decreased in 2024. Our operating margin was 19.2% in 2025, compared to 15.6% in 2024, and 19.2% in 2023.

    Interest expense increased in 2025, primarily due to lower capitalized interest associated with spectrum acquisitions. The increase was partially offset by lower average commercial paper balances.

    21

    AT&T Inc.
    Dollars in millions except per share amounts
    Equity in net income of affiliates decreased in 2025, reflecting our sale of DIRECTV in July 2025. The decrease was partially offset by cash distributions received by AT&T in excess of the carrying amount of our investment in DIRECTV prior to disposition (see Notes 10 and 19).

    Other income (expense) – net increased in 2025. The increase was primarily due to a gain of approximately $5,600 recognized on the sale of our interest in DIRECTV (see Note 10). The increase was also driven by a gain on a prior disposition and noncash impairment charges for a held-for-sale business and our SKY Mexico equity investment. Partially offsetting the increases were lower pension and postretirement benefit credits and lower returns on other benefit-related investments.

    Income tax expense decreased in 2025, primarily due to a lower effective tax rate driven by a tax-free gain on sale of DIRECTV in 2025 and a goodwill impairment in 2024, which is not deductible for tax purposes.

    Our effective tax rate was 13.4% in 2025, 26.6% in 2024, and 21.3% in 2023, reflecting the nonrecognition of income taxes on the DIRECTV gain and larger discrete tax benefits in 2025, and the goodwill impairment in 2024, which was not deductible for tax purposes.

    Segment Results Our segments are comprised of strategic business units or other operations that offer products and services to different customer segments over various technology platforms and/or in different geographies that are managed accordingly. We evaluate segment performance based on operating income as well as EBITDA and/or EBITDA margin. See “Discussion and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” for a reconciliation of EBITDA and EBITDA margin to the most comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

    Operating revenues increased in 2025, driven by increases in Mobility service revenue and our Consumer Wireline business unit, driven by gains in wireless and broadband services. Partially offsetting these increases were declines in our Business Wireline business unit, which reflects lower demand for legacy services.

    Operating income increased in 2025 and decreased in 2024. The 2025 operating income reflects an increase in operating income from our Mobility and Consumer Wireline business units, partially offset by a decrease in our Business Wireline business unit. Our Communications segment operating income margin was 23.1% in 2025, 23.0% in 2024 and 23.6% in 2023. Our Communications segment EBITDA margin was 39.6% in 2025, 39.5% in 2024 and 38.3% in 2023.

    Dollars in millions except per share amounts
    Service revenue increased during 2025, largely due to growth from subscriber gains, partially offset by promotional activity.

    ARPU
    Postpaid ARPU increased in 2025 reflecting pricing actions that were largely offset by increased promotional activity, growth in our converged customer relationships, and our success in attracting customers in underpenetrated segments with lower ARPUs but attractive lifetime values, such as age 55-plus in our “value customers.”

    Churn
    The effective management of subscriber churn is critical to our ability to maximize revenue growth and to maintain and improve margins. Postpaid churn and postpaid phone churn were higher in 2025, partially driven by an increase in our customer base that reached the end of device financing periods, which normalized in the second half of 2025.

    Equipment revenue increased in 2025, primarily driven by higher wireless device sales volumes.

    Operations and support expenses increased in 2025, primarily due to higher sales volumes, which drove higher equipment, advertising, selling and bad debt expenses. The increase also reflected higher advertising due to the launch of a new campaign, and higher network costs that were partially offset by lower content licensing fees and expense declines from transformation efforts.

    Depreciation expense increased in 2025, primarily due to ongoing capital spending for network upgrades and expansion, partially offset by lower depreciation impacts from our network modernization efforts.

    Operating income increased in 2025 and 2024. Our Mobility operating income margin was 30.4% in 2025, 30.9% in 2024 and 30.8% in 2023. Our Mobility EBITDA margin was 42.0% in 2025, 42.8% in 2024 and 40.9% in 2023.
