U-verse 4Q—‘The Best is Yet to Come’

AT&T exes were bullish on U-verse’s outlook during the company’s earnings call Thurs, for a good reason: For the first time, the company has more consumer U-verse HSI subs than legacy DSL subs. The telco added 609K U-verse Internet subs in 4Q (vs. 210K in the year-ago quarter) to reach a total of 7.7mln, helping offset losses from DSL. Overall, wireline broadband sub growth was flat though total broadband ARPU was up more than 10% YOY. Read on for the reasons why the telco projects the best is yet to come.
