DALLAS, July 25, 2017 - AT&T Inc. * ( NYSE:T ) reported
strong adjusted earnings growth and margin expansion with lower
expenses in the second quarter.
"Once again our team delivered expanded consolidated margins
and, as a result, grew adjusted earnings per share by nearly 10% as
we executed well against our business priorities," said Randall
Stephenson, AT&T chairman and CEO. "And in a quarter where our
competitors used promotions aggressively, we added more than
500,000 branded smartphones to our base and more than 100,000 IP
broadband subscribers, achieved record EBITDA wireless margins and
had the lowest postpaid phone churn in our history. We continue to
expect the Time Warner deal to close by year - end and further
transform the company . "
Consolidated Financial Results
AT&T's consolidated revenues for the second quarter totaled
$39.8 billion versus $40.5 billion in the year-ago quarter,

operating income was $7.3 billion versus $6.6 billion; and

items, operating income was $8.6 billion versus $8.1 billion and
operating income margin was 21.6%, up 150 basis points versus the
year-ago quarter.
Second-quarter net income attributable to AT&T totaled $3.9
billion, or $0.63 per diluted share, compared with $3.4 billion, or
$0.55 per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter. Adjusting for
$0.16 of costs for amortization, merger- and integration-related
expenses and other items, earnings per diluted share was $0.79
compared with an adjusted $0.72 in the year-ago quarter, up
9.7%.
Cash from operating activities was $8.9 billion in the second
quarter and $18.2 billion year to date. Capital expenditures were

Discussion and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
We believe the following measures are relevant and useful
information to investors as they are part of AT&T's internal
management reporting and planning processes and are important
metrics that management uses to evaluate the operating performance
of AT&T and its segments. Management also uses these measures
as a method of comparing performance with that of many of our
competitors.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow is defined as cash from operations minus Capital
expenditures. Free cash flow after dividends is defined as cash
from operations minus Capital expenditures and dividends. Free cash
flow dividend payout ratio is defined as the percentage of
dividends paid to free cash flow. We believe these metrics provide
useful information to our investors because management views free
cash flow as an important indicator of how much cash is generated
by routine business operations, including Capital expenditures, and
makes decisions based on it. Management also views free cash flow
as a measure of cash available to pay debt and return cash to
shareowners.

EBITDA
Our calculation of EBITDA, as presented, may differ from
similarly titled measures reported by other companies. For
AT&T, EBITDA excludes other income (expense) - net, and equity
in net income (loss) of affiliates, as these do not reflect the
operating results of our subscriber base or operations that are not
under our control. Equity in net income (loss) of affiliates
represents the proportionate share of the net income (loss) of
affiliates in which we exercise significant influence, but do not
control. Because we do not control these entities, management
excludes these results when evaluating the performance of our
primary operations. EBITDA also excludes interest expense and the
provision for income taxes. Excluding these items eliminates the
expenses associated with our capital and tax structures. Finally,
EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization in order to eliminate
the impact of capital investments. EBITDA does not give effect to
cash used for debt service requirements and thus does not reflect
available funds for distributions, reinvestment or other
discretionary uses. EBITDA is not presented as an alternative
measure of operating results or cash flows from operations, as
determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP).
EBITDA service margin is calculated as EBITDA divided by service
revenues.
When discussing our segment results, EBITDA excludes equity in
net income (loss) of affiliates, and depreciation and amortization
from segment contribution. For our supplemental presentation of our
combined domestic wireless operations (AT&T Mobility) and our
supplemental presentation of the Mexico Wireless and Latin America
operations of our International segment, EBITDA excludes
depreciation and amortization from operating income.
These measures are used by management as a gauge of our success
in acquiring, retaining and servicing subscribers because we
believe these measures reflect AT&T's ability to generate and
grow subscriber revenues while providing a high level of customer
service in a cost-effective manner. Management also uses these
measures as a method of comparing segment performance with that of
many of its competitors. The financial and operating metrics which
affect EBITDA include the key revenue and expense drivers for which
segment managers are responsible and upon which we evaluate their
performance. Management uses Mexico Wireless EBITDA in evaluating
profitability trends after our two Mexico wireless acquisitions in
2015, and our investments in building a nationwide LTE network by
end of 2018. Management uses Latin America EBITDA in evaluating the
ability of our Latin America operations to generate cash to finance
its own operations.
We believe EBITDA Service Margin (EBITDA as a percentage of
service revenues) to be a more relevant measure than EBITDA Margin
(EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue) for our Consumer Mobility
segment operating margin and our supplemental AT&T Mobility
operating margin. We also use wireless service revenues to
calculate margin to facilitate comparison, both internally and
externally with our wireless competitors, as they calculate their
margins using wireless service revenues as well.
There are material limitations to using these non-GAAP financial
measures. EBITDA, EBITDA margin and EBITDA service margin, as we
have defined them, may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures reported by other companies. Furthermore, these
performance measures do not take into account certain significant
items, including depreciation and amortization, interest expense,
tax expense and equity in net income (loss) of affiliates.
Management compensates for these limitations by carefully analyzing
how its competitors present performance measures that are similar
in nature to EBITDA as we present it, and considering the economic
effect of the excluded expense items independently as well as in
connection with its analysis of net income as calculated in
accordance with GAAP. EBITDA, EBITDA margin and EBITDA service
margin should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute
for, other measures of financial performance reported in accordance
with GAAP.

Adjusting Items
Adjusting items include revenues and costs we consider
nonoperational in nature, such as items arising from asset
acquisitions or dispositions. We also adjust for net actuarial
gains or losses associated with our pension and postemployment
benefit plans due to the often significant impact on our
fourth-quarter results (we immediately recognize this gain or loss
in the income statement, pursuant to our accounting policy for the
recognition of actuarial gains and losses.) Consequently, our
adjusted results reflect an expected return on plan assets rather
than the actual return on plan assets, as included in the GAAP
measure of income.
The tax impact of adjusting items is calculated using the
effective tax rate during the quarter except for adjustments that,
given their magnitude can drive a change in the effective tax rate,
reflect the actual tax expense or combined marginal rate of
approximately 38%. Certain foreign operations with losses, where
such losses are not realizable for tax purposes, are not tax
effected, resulting in no tax impact for Venezuela devaluation. For
years prior to 2017, adjustments related to Mexico operations were
taxed at the 30% marginal rate for Mexico.

Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Income Margin,
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA service
margin and Adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures
calculated by excluding from operating revenues, operating expenses
and income tax expense certain significant items that are
non-operational or non-recurring in nature, including dispositions
and merger integration and transaction costs. Management believes
that these measures provide relevant and useful information to
investors and other users of our financial data in evaluating the
effectiveness of our operations and underlying business trends.
Adjusted Operating Revenues, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted
Operating Income Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin,
Adjusted EBITDA service margin and Adjusted diluted EPS should be
considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, other
measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP.

Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA
Net Debt to EBITDA ratios are non-GAAP financial measures
frequently used by investors and credit rating agencies and
management believes these measures provide relevant and useful
information to investors and other users of our financial data. The
Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio is calculated by dividing the Net
Debt by Annualized Adjusted EBITDA. Net Debt is calculated by
subtracting cash and cash equivalents and certificates of deposit
and time deposits that are greater than 90 days, from the sum of
debt maturing within one year and long-term debt. Annualized
Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by annualizing the year-to-date
Adjusted EBITDA.
