NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Dollars in millions except per share amounts

NOTE 1. PREPARATION OF INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Basis of Presentation Throughout this document, AT&T Inc. is referred to as “we,” “AT&T” or the “Company.” The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and subsidiaries and affiliates which we control. AT&T is a holding company whose subsidiaries and affiliates operate worldwide in the telecommunications and technology industries. You should read this document in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those for the full year. These consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the results for the presented interim periods, consisting of normal recurring accruals and other items.

The consolidated financial statements include our controlled subsidiaries, as well as variable interest entities (VIE) where we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities that we do not control but have significant influence are accounted for under the equity method.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions, including estimates of fair value, probable losses and expenses, that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain prior period amounts have been conformed to the current period’s presentation providing further disaggregation of activities within Cash from Operations in our consolidated statements of cash flows and additional revenue categories for our Business Wireline and Consumer Wireline business units (see Note 5).

Stock Repurchase Program In December 2024, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $10,000 of AT&T common stock. We began buying back stock under this program in the second quarter of 2025. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2025, we had repurchased approximately 3487 million shares totaling $~~958~~2,444 under this authorization, excluding brokerage fees and the one percent excise tax imposed by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.

To implement repurchase authorizations, we use open market repurchase programs, relying on Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 where feasible.

Tax Legislation On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act was enacted, which restores or makes permanent certain expiring business tax provisions from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. WeAs doa ~~not~~result ~~anticipate~~of the legislation, we reduced our taxable income position and, at September 30, 2025, “Prepaid and other current assets” on our consolidated balance sheet included $3,467 of current tax assets, compared to $2,236 at December 31, 2024. The legislation did not materially impact our income tax expense, but we expect ~~that~~ it will ~~have~~result in a material ~~impact~~decrease onto cash taxes paid relative to our expectations.

~~NOTE~~New 2.Accounting ~~EARNINGS PER SHARE~~Standards

AInternal-Use ~~reconciliation~~Software ofIn September 2025, the ~~numerators~~Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and ~~denominators~~Other of- ~~basic~~Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (ASU 2025-06).

ASU 2025-06 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. We are evaluating the impacts of our adoption of ASU 2025-06 and currently do not expect that it will have a material impact on our financial statements.

NOTE 4. SEGMENT INFORMATION

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 have two reportable segments: Communications and Latin America.

Our chief operating decision maker (CODM) is our Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President. Our CODM uses operating income to evaluate performance and allocate resources, including capital allocations, when managing the business. Our CODM manages operations through the review of actual and forecasted “Operations and Support Expenses” information at a segment and business unit level, with Communications and Latin America segments primarily evaluated on a direct cost basis and comprised of equipment, compensation, network and technology, sales, advertising and other costs.

Additionally, business unit expenses within the Communications segment include direct and shared costs. Direct costs are incurred in support of products and services offered by the business units, such as equipment costs (predominantly wireless devices), network access, rents, leases, sales support, customer provisioning and commission expenses. Shared costs amongst the business units generally include information technology, network engineering and construction costs, advertising and other general and administrative expenses.

Dollars in millions except per share amounts

NOTE 4. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Communications segment provides wireless and wireline telecom and broadband services to consumers located in the U.S. 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 services and equipment in Mexico.

Corporate and Other reconciles our segment results to consolidated operating income and income before income taxes.

Corporate includes:

•DTV-related retained costs, which are costs previously allocated to the Video business that were retained ~~after the transaction~~, net of reimbursements from DIRECTV Entertainment Holdings, LLC (DIRECTV) under transition service agreements. With the sale of our remaining interest in DIRECTV, we will no longer report these costs in 2026.

•Parent administration support, which includes costs borne by AT&T where the business units do not influence decision making.

•Securitization fees associated with our sales of receivables (see Note 8).

•Value portfolio, which are businesses no longer integral to our operations or which we no longer actively market.

Other items consist of:

•Certain significant items, which includes items associated with the merger and integration of acquired or divested businesses, including amortization of intangible assets, employee separation charges associated with voluntary and/or strategic offers, asset impairments and abandonments and restructuring, and other items for which the segments are not being evaluated.

“Interest expense,” “Other income (expense) – net” and “Equity in net income (loss) of affiliates” are managed only on a total company basis and are, accordingly, reflected only in consolidated results.

Deferred Customer Contract Acquisition and Fulfillment Costs

Costs to acquire and fulfill customer contracts, including commissions on service activations for our Mobility, Business Wireline and Consumer Wireline services, are deferred and amortized over the contract period or expected customer relationship life, which typically ranges from three years to five years.

The following table presents the deferred customer contract acquisition and fulfillment costs included on our consolidated balance sheets:

	September 30,		December 31,

The following table presents deferred customer contract acquisition and fulfillment cost amortization, which are primarily included in “Selling, general and administrative” and “Other cost of revenues,” respectively, for the ~~six~~nine months ended:

Contract Assets and Liabilities

A contract asset is recorded when revenue is recognized in advance of our right to bill and receive consideration. The contract asset will decrease as services are provided and billed. For example, when installment sales include promotional discounts (e.g., trade-in device credits) the difference between revenue recognized and consideration received is recorded as a contract asset to be amortized over the contract term.

Our contract assets primarily relate to our wireless businesses. Promotional equipment sales where we offer handset credits, which are allocated between equipment and service in proportion to their standalone selling prices, when customers commit to a

specified service period result in additional contract assets recognized. These contract assets will amortize over the service contract period, resulting in lower future service revenue.

When consideration is received in advance of the delivery of goods or services, a contract liability is recorded. Reductions in the contract liability will be recorded as we satisfy the performance obligations.

The following table presents contract assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets:

	June 30,		December 31,
	September 30,		December 31,
Consolidated Balance Sheets	2025		2024
Contract asset	$	7,~~198~~293	$	6,855
Current portion in “Prepaid and other current assets”	4,~~009~~036		3,845
Contract liability	4,~~291~~116		4,272
Current portion in “Advanced billings and customer deposits”	3,~~872~~767		3,981

Our beginning of period contract liability recorded as customer contract revenue during 2025 was $3,~~515~~581.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent services we are required to provide to customers under bundled or discounted arrangements, which are satisfied as services are provided over the contract term. In determining the transaction price allocated, we do not include non-recurring charges and estimates for usage, nor do we consider arrangements with an original expected duration of less than one year, which are primarily prepaid wireless and residential internet agreements.

Remaining performance obligations associated with business contracts reflect recurring charges billed, adjusted to reflect estimates for sales incentives and revenue adjustments. Performance obligations associated with wireless contracts are estimated using a portfolio approach in which we review all relevant promotional activities, calculating the remaining performance obligation using the average service component for the portfolio and the average device price. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2025, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $42,~~008~~017, of which we expect to recognize approximately 7465% by the end of 2026, with the balance recognized thereafter.

NOTE 6. PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

Many of our employees are covered by one of our noncontributory pension plans. We also provide certain medical, dental, life insurance and death benefits to certain retired employees under various plans and accrue actuarially determined postretirement benefit costs. Our objective in funding these plans, in combination with the standards of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA), is to accumulate assets sufficient to provide benefits described in the plans to employees upon their retirement. We do not have significant funding requirements in 2025. We intend to voluntarily contribute approximately $1,500 to our pension plan by the end of 2026, with more than half of that in 2025, including $400 contributed during the third quarter of 2025.

We recognize actuarial gains and losses on pension and postretirement plan assets in our consolidated results as a component of “Other income (expense) – net” at our annual measurement date of December 31, unless earlier remeasurements are required.

NOTE 7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DISCLOSURE

The Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure framework in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” provides a three-tiered fair value hierarchy based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value. Level 1 refers to fair values determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 refers to fair values estimated using significant other observable inputs and Level 3 includes fair values estimated using significant unobservable inputs.

The level of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The valuation methodologies described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of future net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. We believe our valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants. The use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. There have been no changes in the methodologies used since December 31, 2024.

Investment Securities

Our investment securities include both equity and debt securities that are measured at fair value, as well as equity securities without readily determinable fair values. A substantial portion of the fair values of our investment securities is estimated based on quoted market prices. Investments in equity securities not traded on a national securities exchange are valued at cost, less any impairment, and adjusted for changes resulting from observable, orderly transactions for identical or similar securities.

At ~~June~~September 30, 2025, available-for-sale debt securities totaling $~~671~~661 have maturities as follows - less than one year: $7180; one to three years: $~~107~~120; three to five years: $~~113~~90; five or more years: $~~380~~371.

Our cash equivalents (money market securities) and short-term investments (certificate and time deposits) are recorded at amortized cost, and the respective carrying amounts approximate fair values. Short-term investments are recorded in “Prepaid and other current assets” and our investment securities are recorded in “Other Assets” on the consolidated balance sheets.

Derivative Financial Instruments

We enter into derivative transactions to manage certain market risks, primarily interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk. This includes the use of interest rate swaps, interest rate locks, foreign exchange forward contracts and combined interest rate foreign exchange contracts (cross-currency swaps). We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. We record derivatives on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value that is derived from observable market data, including yield curves and foreign exchange rates (all of our derivatives are Level 2). Cash flows associated with derivative instruments are presented in the same category on the consolidated statements of cash flows as the item being hedged.

Fair Value Hedging Periodically, we enter into and designate fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps as fair value hedges. The purpose of these swaps is to manage interest rate risk by managing our mix of fixed-rate and floating-rate debt. These swaps involve the receipt of fixed-rate amounts for floating interest rate payments over the life of the swaps without exchange of the underlying principal amount.

We also designate most of our cross-currency swaps and foreign exchange contracts as fair value hedges. The purpose of these contracts is to hedge foreign currency risk associated with changes in spot rates on foreign denominated debt. For cross-currency hedges, we have elected to exclude the change in fair value of the swap related to both time value and cross-currency basis spread from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. For foreign exchange contracts, we have elected to exclude the change in fair value of forward points from the assessment of hedge effectiveness.

Unrealized and realized gains or losses from fair value hedges impact the same category on the consolidated statements of income as the item being hedged, including the earnings impact of excluded components. In instances where we have elected to exclude components from the assessment of hedge effectiveness related to fair value hedges, unrealized gains or losses on such excluded components are recorded as a component of accumulated OCI and recognized into earnings over the life of the hedging instrument. Unrealized gains on derivatives designated as fair value hedges are recorded at fair value as assets, and unrealized losses are recorded at fair market value as liabilities. Except for excluded components, changes in the fair value of derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges are offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets or liabilities through earnings. In the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2025 and 2024, no ineffectiveness was measured on fair value hedges.

Cash Flow Hedging We designate some of our cross-currency swaps as cash flow hedges to hedge our exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that are attributable to foreign currency risk and interest rate risk generated from our foreign-denominated debt. These agreements include initial and final exchanges of principal from fixed foreign denominated amounts to fixed U.S. dollar denominated amounts, to be exchanged at a specified rate that is usually determined by the market spot rate upon issuance. They also include an interest rate swap of a fixed or floating foreign denominated interest rate to a fixed U.S. dollar denominated interest rate.

Unrealized gains on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recorded at fair value as assets and unrealized losses are recorded at fair value as liabilities. For derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges, changes in fair value are reported as a component of accumulated OCI and are reclassified into the consolidated statements of income in the same period the hedged transaction affects earnings.

Periodically, we enter into and designate interest rate locks to partially hedge the risk of changes in interest payments attributable to increases in the benchmark interest rate during the period leading up to the probable issuance of fixed-rate debt. We designate our interest rate locks as cash flow hedges. Gains and losses when we settle our interest rate locks are amortized into income over the life of the related debt. Over the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify $59 from accumulated OCI to “Interest expense” due to the amortization of net losses on historical interest rate locks.

Collateral and Credit-Risk Contingency We have entered into agreements with our derivative counterparties establishing collateral thresholds based on respective credit ratings and netting agreements. At ~~June~~September 30, 2025, we had posted collateral of $~~355~~375 (a deposit asset) and held collateral of $~~404~~405 (a receipt liability). Under the agreements, if AT&T’s credit rating had been downgraded two ratings levels by Fitch Ratings, one level by S&P and one level by Moody’s before the final collateral exchange in ~~June~~September, we would have been required to post additional collateral of $5054. If AT&T’s credit rating had been downgraded three ratings levels by Fitch Ratings, two levels by S&P and two levels by Moody’s, we would have been required to post additional collateral of $1,~~312~~756. At December 31, 2024, we had posted collateral of $188 (a deposit asset) and held collateral of $0 (a receipt liability). We do not offset the fair value of collateral, whether the right to reclaim cash collateral (a receivable) or the obligation to return cash collateral (a payable) exists, against the fair value of the derivative instruments.

NOTE 8. SALES OF RECEIVABLES

We have agreements with various third-party financial institutions pertaining to the sales of certain types of our accounts receivable. The most significant of these programs are discussed in detail below and generally consist of (1) receivables arising from equipment installment plans, which are sold for cash and beneficial interests, such as deferred purchase price, when applicable, and (2) revolving trade receivables, which are sold for cash. Under the terms of our agreements for these programs, we continue to service the transferred receivables on behalf of the financial institutions.

Equipment Installment Receivables Program

We offer our customers the option to purchase certain wireless devices in installments over a specified period of time and, in many cases, once certain conditions are met, they may be eligible to trade in the original equipment for a new device and have the remaining unpaid balance paid or settled.

We maintain a program under which we transfer a portion of these receivables through our bankruptcy-remote subsidiary in exchange for cash and beneficial interests. In the event a customer trades in a device prior to the end of the installment contract period, we agree to make a payment to the financial institutions equal to any outstanding remaining installment receivable balance. Accordingly, we record a guarantee obligation for this estimated amount at the time the receivables are transferred.

The following table sets forth a summary of equipment installment receivables sold under this program:

Beneficial interests, when applicable, and guarantee obligations are initially recorded at estimated fair value and subsequently adjusted for changes in present value of expected cash flows. The estimation of their fair values is based on remaining installment payments expected to be collected and the expected timing and value of device trade-ins. The estimated value of the device trade-ins considers prices offered to us by independent third parties and contemplates changes in value after the launch of a device model. The fair value measurements used for the beneficial interests and the guarantee obligation are considered Level 3 under the Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure framework (see Note 7).

Revolving Receivables Program

During 2025, we expanded our revolving agreement to transfer up to $2,940 of certain receivables through our bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries to various financial institutions on a recurring basis in exchange for cash equal to the gross receivables transferred. This agreement is subject to renewal on an annual basis and the transfer limit may be expanded or reduced from time to time. As customers pay their balances, we transfer additional receivables into the program, resulting in our gross receivables sold exceeding net cash flow impacts (e.g., collect and reinvest). The transferred receivables are fully guaranteed by our bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries, which hold additional receivables in the amount of $~~234~~28 that are pledged as collateral under this agreement. The transfers are recorded at fair value of the proceeds received and obligations assumed less derecognized receivables. Our maximum exposure to loss related to these receivables transferred is limited to the derecognized amount outstanding.

NOTE 9. TRANSACTIONS WITH DIRECTV

WePrior ~~account~~to its sale, we accounted for our investment in DIRECTV under the equity method and ~~record~~recorded our share of DIRECTV earnings as equity in net income of affiliates, with DIRECTV considered a related party. On ~~September~~July 292, ~~2024~~2025, we ~~agreed~~sold ~~to sell~~ our interest in DIRECTV to TPG Capital (TPG) ~~for~~and recorded a current note receivable of approximately $73,600, which we expect to receive the majority of by the end of 2025, and a long-term receivable of $500. The disposition of DIRECTV also resulted in ~~cash~~the ~~payments~~release of approximately $2,900 of historical deferred tax liabilities. We recorded a gain on the sale of DIRECTV of approximately $5,500, which includes the impact of the transfer of deferred tax liabilities, indemnification liabilities and unfavorable contracts, in “Other income (expense) – net” in the consolidated statements of income in the third quarter of 2025.

Beginning in third-quarter 2024, our investment in DIRECTV was reduced to zero on our consolidated balance sheet, resulting from aggregate cash receipts exceeding our initial investment balance plus our cumulative equity in DIRECTV earnings. As we are not committed, implicitly or explicitly, to provide financial or other support to DIRECTV, we record cash distributions

NOTE 10. SUPPLIER AND VENDOR FINANCING PROGRAMS

Supplier Financing Program

We actively manage the timing of our supplier payments for operating items to optimize the use of our cash and seek to make payments on 90-day or greater terms, while providing suppliers with access to bank facilities that permit earlier payment at their cost. Our supplier financing program does not result in changes to our normal, contracted payment cycles or cash from operations.

At the supplier’s election, they can receive payment of AT&T obligations prior to the scheduled due dates, at a discounted price from the third-party financial institution. The discounted price paid to participating suppliers is based on a variable rate that is indexed to the overnight borrowing rate. We agree to pay the financial institution the stated amount generally within 90 days of receipt of the invoice. We do not have pledged assets or other guarantees under our supplier financing program.

Suppliers had elected to sell to the third-party financial institutions $34,~~461~~455 and $2,498 of our outstanding payment obligations as of ~~June~~September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. These amounts are included in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” on our consolidated balance sheets. Our supplier financing programs are reported as operating or investing (when capitalizable) activities in our consolidated statements of cash flows when paid.

Direct Supplier Financing

We also have arrangements with suppliers of handset inventory that allow us to extend the stated payment terms by up to 90 days at an additional cost to us (variable rate extension fee). We had $43,~~235~~992 of direct supplier financing outstanding as of ~~June~~September 30, 2025 and $6,272 as of December 31, 2024, which are included in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” on our consolidated balance sheets. Our direct supplier financing is reported as operating activities in our statements of cash flows when paid.

Vendor Financing

We enter into multi-year software licensing arrangements, which, consistent with industry standards, are paid over the license terms of two to five years. Additionally, in connection with capital improvements and the acquisition of other productive assets, we negotiate favorable payment terms of 120 days or more. We refer to these arrangements as vendor financing, with the balances and activities including equipment and software arrangements. Vendor financing payments are reported as financing

Depreciation and amortization expense increased in the ~~second~~third quarter and for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025, primarily due to ongoing capital spending for strategic initiatives such as fiber and network upgrades, partially offset by lower depreciation impacts from our Open RAN network modernization efforts. We expect fourth-quarter 2025 depreciation expense to be lower than the comparable prior-year quarter, and full-year expense to be consistent with the prior year as certain legacy assets become fully depreciated.

Operating income increased in the ~~second~~third quarter and for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025. Our operating income margin in the ~~second~~third quarter increased from 197.30% in 2024 to 2119.19% in 2025 and for the first ~~six~~nine months increased from 1915.42% in 2024 to 19.9% in 2025.

Equity in net income of affiliates increased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2025.

~~Other income (expense) – net increased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2025.

~~Income~~Other ~~tax~~income (expense) – net increased in the ~~second~~third quarter and for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025,. The increase in the quarter was primarily due to ~~higher~~a ~~income~~gain ~~before~~of ~~income~~approximately ~~tax~~$5,500 recognized on the sale of our interest in DIRECTV (see Note 9). For the first nine months, the increase was also driven by a second-quarter 2025 gain on a prior disposition and first-quarter 2024 noncash impairment charges for a held-for-sale business and our SKY Mexico equity investment. Partially offsetting the increases in the quarter and for the first nine months were lower pension and postretirement benefit credits and lower returns on other benefit-related investments.

~~Our~~Income ~~effective~~ tax ~~rate~~expense ~~was~~decreased ~~20.3%~~ in the ~~second~~third quarter and ~~21.0%~~ for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025, ~~versus~~primarily ~~22.4%~~due ~~and~~to ~~22.7%~~a inlower ~~the~~effective ~~comparable~~tax ~~periods~~rate indriven ~~the~~by ~~prior~~a ~~year,~~tax-free ~~reflecting~~gain ~~larger~~on ~~discrete~~sale ~~state~~of ~~tax~~DIRECTV ~~benefits~~ in 2025 and a goodwill impairment in 2024, which is not deductible for tax purposes.

Our effective tax rate was 9.2% in the third quarter and 15.4% for the first nine months of 2025, versus 89.9% and 31.1% in the comparable periods in the prior year, reflecting the nonrecognition of income taxes on the DIRECTV gain and larger discrete state 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 the ~~second~~third quarter and for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025, primarily driven by increases in our Mobility and Consumer Wireline business units, partially offset by declines in our Business Wireline business unit, which reflects lower demand for legacy services. Also offsetting revenue increases for the first six months was the absence of revenues from our cybersecurity business that was contributed to a new cybersecurity joint venture, LevelBlue, in the second quarter of 2024.

Operating income ~~increased~~decreased in the ~~second~~third quarter and increased for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025. Our Communications segment operating income margin in the ~~second~~third quarter decreased from 24.56% in 2024 to 2324.80% in 2025 and for the first ~~six~~nine months decreased from 2324.92% in 2024 to 23.78% in 2025.

Service revenue increased in the ~~second~~third quarter and for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025, largely due to ~~postpaid~~subscriber ~~phone~~gains ~~average~~partially ~~revenue~~offset ~~per~~by ~~subscriber~~promotional ~~(ARPU)~~activity. ~~growth~~Revenue ~~and~~comparisons ~~subscriber~~in ~~gains.~~the third quarter were also impacted by approximately $90 of one-time noncash revenues related to administrative fees in 2024.

ARPU

Average revenue per subscriber (ARPU) ~~increased~~decreased in the ~~second~~third quarter and increased for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025. The decrease in the quarter includes the impact of one-time revenues related to administrative fees in 2024, ~~reflecting~~as ~~pricing~~well ~~actions~~as promotional activity and our success in attracting customers ~~migrating~~in tounderpenetrated ~~higher~~segments ~~priced~~with ~~plans~~lower ARPUs, but attractive lifetime values, such as age 55-plus in our “value customers.” The increase for the first nine months was pressured by growth in our base of converged customers, who are typically eligible for service discounts.

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-only churn were higher in the ~~second~~third quarter and for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025, partially driven by aan ~~normalization~~increase ofin ~~customers~~our ~~reaching~~customer base that reached the end of ~~their~~device ~~equipment~~financing ~~promotional~~periods, ~~plans~~which ~~and~~normalized as we exited the quarter. The increase in churn in the quarter was primarily driven by increased competition.

Equipment revenue increased in the ~~second~~third quarter and for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025, primarily driven by higher wireless device sales volumes.

Operations and support expenses increased in the ~~second~~third quarter and for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025, primarily due to higher equipment costs driven by higher wireless sales volumes. The increase also reflected higher advertising due to the launch of a new campaign in the first quarter, ~~promotion~~and higher network costs that were partially offset by lower content licensing fees and ~~network~~expense ~~costs~~declines from transformation efforts.

Depreciation expense increased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 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 the second quarter and for the first six months of 2025. Our Mobility operating income margin in the second quarter decreased from 32.8% in 2024 to 31.7% in 2025 and for the first six months decreased from 32.1% in 2024 to 31.5% in 2025. Our Mobility EBITDA margin in the second quarter decreased from 44.9% in 2024 to 43.4% in 2025 and for the first six months decreased from 44.2% in 2024 to 43.2% in 2025, driven by the increase in low margin equipment revenues.

Broadband revenues increased in the ~~second~~third quarter and for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025, driven by increases in fiber revenues of 1816.98% and 1918.02%. Higher fiber revenues reflect an increase in fiber customers, which we expect to continue as we invest further in building our fiber footprint, and higher ARPU. This increase also includes growth in AIA revenues and was partially offset by declines in copper-based broadband services.

Legacy voice and data services revenues decreased in the ~~second~~third quarter and for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025, reflecting the continued decline in demand for these services in favor of other technologies, such as wireless and fiber services.

For the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025, cash inflows were primarily provided by cash receipts from operations, including cash from our sale and transfer of our receivables to third parties, and distributions from DIRECTV. These inflows exceeded cash used to meet the needs of the business, including, but not limited to, payment of operating expenses, including higher device payments from higher sales volumes. The cash generated from operating activities was primarily used to fund capital improvements, make dividend payments to stockholders, repurchase preferred and common stock, and repay long-term debt. We maintain availability under our credit facilities and our commercial paper program to meet our short-term liquidity requirements.

Cash Provided by Operating Activities

During the first six months of 2025, cash provided by operating activities was $18,812, compared to $16,640 for the first six months of 2024, with increases resulting from higher cash flows related to DIRECTV, including a first-quarter 2025 dividend of $1,138, and operational growth.

During the first nine months of 2025, we repurchased approximately 87 million shares totaling $2,444 under our $10,000 common stock repurchase authorization approved by the Board of Directors in December 2024, excluding brokerage fees and the one percent excise tax imposed by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.

Credit Facilities

The following summary of our various credit and loan agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to each agreement filed as exhibits to our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We use credit facilities as a tool in managing our liquidity status. We currently have one $12,000 revolving credit agreement that terminates on November 18, 2029 (Revolving Credit Agreement). No amount was outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement as of ~~June~~September 30, 2025.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations- Continued

Dollars in millions except per share amounts

We also utilize other external financing sources, which include various credit arrangements supported by government agencies to support network equipment purchases as well as a commercial paper program.

Our Revolving Credit Agreement contains covenants that are customary for an issuer with investment grade senior debt credit rating as well as a net debt-to-EBITDA financial ratio covenant requiring AT&T to maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, a ratio of not more than 3.75-to-1. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2025, we were in compliance with the covenants for our credit facilities.

Collateral Arrangements

Most of our counterparty collateral arrangements require cash collateral posting by AT&T only when derivative market values exceed certain thresholds. Under these arrangements, which cover the majority of our approximate $3639,~~499~~142 derivative portfolio, counterparties are still required to post collateral. During the first ~~six~~nine months of 2025, we received $~~237~~218 of cash collateral, on a net basis. Cash postings under these arrangements vary with changes in credit ratings and netting agreements. (See Note 7)

Other

Our total capital consists of debt (long-term debt and debt maturing within one year), redeemable noncontrolling interest and stockholders’ equity. Our capital structure does not include debt issued by our equity method investments. At ~~June~~September 30, 2025, our debt ratio was 5152.70%, compared to 5152.82% at ~~June~~September 30, 2024 and 50.7% at December 31, 2024. The debt ratio is affected by the same factors that affect total capital, and reflects our recent debt issuances, repayments and reclassifications related to redemption of noncontrolling interests.

DISCUSSION AND RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES

We also evaluate segment and business unit performance based on EBITDA, which is defined as operating income excluding depreciation and amortization, and/or EBITDA margin, which is defined as EBITDA divided by total revenue. EBITDA is used as part of our management reporting, and we believe EBITDA to be a relevant and useful measurement to our investors as it measures the cash generation potential of our business units. EBITDA does not give effect to depreciation and amortization expenses incurred in operating income nor is it burdened by cash used for debt service requirements and thus does not reflect available funds for distributions, reinvestment or other discretionary uses. There are material limitations to using these non-GAAP financial measures. EBITDA and EBITDA margin, as we have defined them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

CAUTIONARY LANGUAGE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Information set forth in this report contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results could differ materially. Many of these factors are discussed in more detail in the “Risk Factors” section herein and in our most recent Form 10-K and Form 10-Q. We claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

The following factors could cause our future results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements:

•Adverse economic and political changes, public health emergencies and our ability to access financial markets on favorable terms.

•Increases in our benefit plans’ costs, including due to worse-than-assumed investment returns and discount rates, mortality assumptions, medical cost trends, or healthcare laws or regulations.

•The final outcome of FCC and other federal, state or foreign government agency proceedings (including judicial review of such proceedings) and legislative and regulatory efforts involving issues important to our business, including, without limitation, ~~pending~~the ~~Notices~~results of ~~Apparent~~pending ~~Liability~~governmental investigations; the transition from legacy technologies to IP-based infrastructure, including the withdrawal of legacy TDM-based services; universal service; broadband deployment; wireless equipment siting regulations; E911 services; rules concerning digital discrimination; competition policy; privacy; net neutrality; copyright protection; availability of new spectrum on fair and reasonable terms; and wireless and satellite license awards and renewals, and our response to such legislative and regulatory efforts.

•Enactment of or changes to state, local, federal and/or foreign tax laws and regulations, and actions by tax agencies and judicial authorities, and the resolution of disputes with any taxing jurisdictions, pertaining to our subsidiaries and foreign investments.

•U.S. and foreign laws and regulations regarding intellectual property rights protection and privacy, personal data protection and user consent, which are rapidly evolving.

•Our ability to compete in an increasingly competitive industry and against competitors that can offer product/service offerings at lower prices due to lower cost structures and regulatory and legislative actions adverse to us, including non-regulation of comparable alternative technologies and/or government-owned or subsidized networks, and our response to such competition and emerging technologies.

•Disruptions in our supply chain that have a material impact on our ability to acquire needed goods and services.

•The development and delivery of attractive and profitable wireless and broadband offerings and devices, including our ability to match speeds offered by competitors; and the availability, cost and/or reliability of technologies required to provide such offerings.

•Our ability to adequately fund additional wireless spectrum and network development, deployment and maintenance; and regulations and conditions relating to spectrum use, licensing, obtaining additional spectrum, technical standards and deployment and usage, including network management rules.

•Our ability to manage growth in wireless data services, including network quality.

•The outcome of pending, threatened or potential litigation and arbitration.

•The impact from major equipment, software or other failures or errors that disrupt our networks or cyber incidents; the effect of security breaches related to the network or customer information; our inability to obtain handsets, equipment/software or have handsets, equipment/software serviced in a timely and cost-effective manner from suppliers; severe weather conditions or other natural disasters including earthquakes and forest fires; public health emergencies; energy shortages; or wars or terrorist attacks.

•The issuance by the FASB or other accounting oversight bodies of new or revised accounting standards.

•The imposition of tariffs and their duration and uncertainty surrounding further tariffs and congressional action regarding spending and taxation, which may result in changes in government spending and affect the ability and willingness of businesses and consumers to spend in general.

•Our ability to realize or sustain the expected benefits of our business transformation initiatives, which are designed to reduce costs, enable legacy rationalization, streamline distribution, remove redundancies and simplify and improve processes and support functions.

•Our ability to successfully complete divestitures, as well as achieve our expectations regarding the financial impact of completed and/or pending transactions.

Readers are cautioned that other factors discussed in this report and in our most recent Form 10-K, although not enumerated here, also could materially affect our future earnings.

Dollars in millions except per share amounts

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We discuss in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 various risks that may materially affect our business. We use this section to update this discussion to reflect material developments. ~~since~~For ~~our~~the ~~Form~~third ~~10-K~~quarter ~~was~~of ~~filed~~2025, there were no such material developments.

We may not realize or sustain the expected benefits from our business transformation initiatives, and these efforts could have a materially adverse effect on our business, operations, financial condition, results of operations and competitive position.

We have been and will be undertaking certain transformation initiatives, which are designed to reduce costs, enable legacy rationalization, streamline and modernize distribution and customer service, remove redundancies and simplify and improve processes and support functions. Our focus is on supporting added customer value with an improved customer experience. We intend for these efficiencies to enable increased investments in our strategic areas of focus, which include improving broadband connectivity (for example, fiber and 5G). We also expect these initiatives to drive efficiencies and improved margins. If we do not successfully manage and timely execute these initiatives and investments, which may include acquisitions, joint ventures and other strategic transactions, or if they are inadequate or ineffective, we may fail to meet our financial goals and achieve anticipated benefits, improvements may be delayed, not sustained or not realized, and our business, operations and competitive position could be adversely affected. In addition, any such transaction entails certain risks and could present financial, managerial and operational challenges. Further, we are using and intend to further use artificial intelligence (AI)-driven efficiencies in our network design and operations, software development, sales, marketing, customer support services and general and administrative costs. The models used in those products, particularly generative AI models, may produce output or take action that is incorrect, release private or confidential information, reflect biases included in the data on which they are trained, infringe on the intellectual property rights of others, or be otherwise harmful. Any of these risks could expose us to liability or adverse legal or regulatory consequences and harm our reputation and the public perception of our business or the effectiveness of our security measures.
