COMPANY OVERVIEW
Connecting People to Greater Possibility
At AT&T, our purpose is to connect people to greater possibility – with expertise, simplicity, and inspiration.
Our strategy is to be the best converged connectivity provider – through 5G and fiber. AT&T Fiber reaches about 32+ million customer locations in 100+ metros in the U.S. and we plan to expand our fiber footprint to more than 60 million locations by the end of 2030. We have reached 74+M postpaid phone subscribers, 10+M fiber subscribers, and 42% convergence rate!
Customers are increasingly seeking one provider who can seamlessly connect them in their home, at work and on the go. As America’s largest fiber provider and with North America’s largest wireless network, we are leading the way in offering world-class converged connectivity to more customers than anyone else.
Our founding innovator, Alexander Graham Bell, made the first phone call 150 years ago. Today, we’re no longer a phone company. We’re now an advanced networking company that moves secure workloads of data for consumers and businesses better than anyone else.
With the best network and telecommunications assets in America, we’re more than ready to lead our industry forward as demand for AI and autonomous technologies grows on top of today’s robust data and voice workloads. Our progress and performance so far only further reinforces this belief.
