In reaction to the report, AT&T’s share price has risen 2% premarket to $27.05.
“A year and a half ago, we began simplifying our business to reposition AT&T for growth and we’re extremely pleased with how we’ve executed on that commitment,” said John Stankey, AT&T CEO.
“We ended 2021 the way we started it – by growing our customer relationships, running our operations more effectively and efficiently, and sharpening our focus. Our momentum is strong and we’re confident there is more opportunity to continue to grow our customer base and drive costs from the business,” he added.
In its guidance, AT&T said it expects to report a 2022 adjusted EPS between $3.10 and $3.15, below the $3.21 consensus. In addition, consolidated revenue growth is forecast to be in the low-single digits range compared to 2021 consolidated revenues of $153.2 billion, which excludes U.S. Video and Vrio.
