UBS: 'A potential storm is brewing' as AT&T,gear up for heated Q4

May 26, 2016

The first quarter saw more of the same mixed results in the U.S. wireless industry as handset upgrade rates reached an all-time low and subscriber growth slowed while profitability and margins topped records set just two quarters ago, UBS said in a research note."The key question is whether AT&T will continue to accept postpaid phone losses," UBS said. "Management is focused but not improving sub trends with new bundled offerings while attacking the low end of the market with its Cricket offering. We expect AT&T's aggressiveness to ramp in 2H with the expected launch of its new OTT products (creating the new digital bundle) and the next iPhone refresh."

Increased competition could result in slowing growth for AT&T, given massive debt, low gains in recent quarters, we think a potential storm is brewing as 4Q approaches."

Thank God for Charter Communications, quite time someone puts a nail in at&t's you know where and keep them at the back of the line. There is absolutely no way they can compete with Charter.

The report tells about the 10 billion investment money available, but fails to mention liabilities, this information can't be found anywhere in the financials yet, due to the DTV merger... Indeed looks fishy, also, AT&T challenges the new Charter in Dallas fiber expansion , its 1 Gbps GigaPower fiber broadband to more locations in Southern Dallas, challenging the entry of Charter Communications as it becomes a larger force in Texas following its acquisition of Time Warner Cable, again AT&T reacting too late, is never about the subscribers, it is all about the competition, very sad

AT&T is mortgaging its hotels on Park Avenue for the whole deck of community chess. Hope it works out for us.

AT&T is chasing too many things at once without a solid plan. If AT&T build out its fiber and moved faster into 5G, they would be the landlord who will lease out its network to the likes of Netflix.
