AT&T Inc. topped free-cash-flow expectations during its latest quarter, and the company is raising its full-year outlook on the closely watched metric.
Free cash flow is of key importance to AT&T T, -1.78% investors given the company’s sizable dividend, and while management has expressed confidence in the 2023 target all year long, Wall Street had been showing a bit more caution, especially earlier in 2023 when AT&T fell short on the metric for the first quarter in a development it owed to misaligned timing expectations.
The company posted net income attributable to common stock of $3.4 billion, or 48 cents a share, down from $6.0 billion, or 79 cents a share, in the year-earlier period. Results from the latest period reflected $600 million in severance charges and an 8-cent per-share negative impact from lower pension credits, among other factors.
