Investment thesis

🔼 Cheap valuation. For the 4Q2023 AT&T showed revenue growth of 2.2% y/y to $32 bln. This was facilitated by an increase in the number of subscribers. Adjusted earnings per share decreased from $0.61 to $0.54. At the same time, the company increased free cash flow in 4Q2023 by 4.4% to $6.4 bln, and for the full year by 7% y/y to $38.3 bln. This indicator is of particular interest for a dividend stock. AT&T is valued at just 7.4 expected annual earnings, which is significantly below the industry average (12.75) and also below its own 5-year average (8.3).

🔼 Dividends. AT&T offers a fairly high dividend yield. At current quotes it is near 7%. Even though the Fed's rate cut has been delayed, it is still expected to be cut before the end of the year. In such a situation, it is beneficial for the investor to lock in a high level of dividend yield.
