JUNE 30, 2026 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) Dollars in millions except per share amounts NOTE 1. PREPARATION OF INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Basis of Presentation Throughout this document, AT&T Inc. is referred to as “we,” “AT&T” or the “Company.” The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and subsidiaries and affiliates which we control. AT&T is a holding company whose subsidiaries and affiliates operate worldwide in the telecommunications and technology industries. You should read this document in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those for the full year. These consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the results for the presented interim periods, consisting of normal recurring accruals and other items. On February 2, 2026, we closed our transaction with Lumen Technologies, Inc. (Lumen) and acquired substantially all of Lumen’s Mass Markets fiber business for $ 5,756 cash, including purchase price adjustments. The acquisition included customer relationships, which we include with our advanced home internet services, and fiber network assets that were placed in a wholly owned subsidiary, Forged Fiber 37 Services, LLC (Forged Fiber). We plan to sell a controlling interest in Forged Fiber to an equity partner that will co-invest in the ongoing business. As such, Forged Fiber met the criteria of held-for-sale and accordingly is reflected as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements. (See Notes 8 and 12) The consolidated financial statements include our controlled subsidiaries, as well as variable interest entities (VIE) where we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities that we do not control but have significant influence are accounted for under the equity method. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions, including estimates of fair value, probable losses and expenses, that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Unless otherwise noted, the information in Notes 1 through 11 refer only to our continued operations and do not include discussion of balances or activity of our discontinued operations. Effective with our first-quarter 2026 reporting, we realigned our internal management and reporting structure to reflect the evolution of our business model to focus on delivering converged advanced connectivity services across 5G and fiber to consumer and business customers. This new segment reporting structure also provides better visibility into the progress of exiting our copper-based Legacy operations. (See Notes 4 and 5) As a result of our change to this new segment reporting structure, we were required to reassess the assignment of goodwill and perform impairment testing of the previous and updated reporting units as of January 1, 2026; no impairment was recorded. The assignment of goodwill was based on the relative fair value of the reporting unit, which is deemed to be our principal operating segments or one level below. The goodwill from our previous Consumer Wireline and Mobility reporting units within the Communications segment was fully assigned to the reporting units comprising the Advanced Connectivity segment. No goodwill was assigned to the reporting unit comprising the Legacy segment as we expect sustained declines in Legacy service revenues driven by progress on our copper-based network decommissioning. Stock Repurchase Program In December 2024, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $ 10,000 of AT&T common stock. We began buying back stock under this program in the second quarter of 2025. On January 27, 2026, the Board approved an authorization to repurchase an additional $ 10,000 of common stock. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we repurchased approximately 174 million shares totaling $ 4,435 under the December 2024 authorization, excluding brokerage fees and the one percent excise tax imposed by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. To implement repurchase authorizations, we use open market repurchase programs, relying on Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 where feasible. Retirement of Series B Preferred Shares On May 15, 2026, we retired all of the Series B cumulative preferred shares that were redeemed in May 2025. 9 AT&T INC.

NOTE 4. SEGMENT INFORMATION Our segments are comprised of strategic business units or other operations that offer products and services to different customer segments over various technology platforms and/or in different geographies that are managed accordingly. We have three reportable segments: Advanced Connectivity, Legacy and Latin America. Our chief operating decision maker (CODM) is our Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President. Our CODM uses operating income to evaluate performance and allocate resources, including capital allocations, when managing the business. Our CODM manages operations through the review of actual and forecasted “Operations and Support Expenses” information, which are primarily comprised of costs for wireless devices, network access, rents, leases, sales support, customer provisioning and commissions. Operating costs and depreciation of our shared network, including copper-based assets prior to decommissioning, are managed in our Advanced Connectivity segment. Our Legacy and Latin America segments are primarily evaluated on a direct cost basis. Our CODM does not review disaggregated assets on a segment basis, therefore, that information is not presented. The Advanced Connectivity segment provides domestic 5G and fiber-based wireless, internet and other advanced connectivity services to consumer and business customers. The Legacy segment provides domestic legacy voice and data services to consumer and business customers over our copper-based network. Legacy segment results include revenues derived from copper-based services and direct operating costs. The Latin America segment provides wireless service and equipment in Mexico. Corporate and Other reconciles our segment results to consolidated operating income and income from continuing operations before income taxes and includes parent support costs, securitization fees, operations from business no longer integral to operations and significant items for which the segments are not being evaluated. Significant items typically include costs associated with the merger and integration of acquired or divested businesses, including amortization of intangible assets, legal and other items that cover historical periods, novel theories of liability and are separate and distinct from normal recurring costs, benefit-related gains and losses, employee separation charges associated with voluntary and/or strategic offers, asset impairments and abandonments and restructuring. “Total other income (expense)” consists of “Interest expense,” “Other income (expense) – net” and “Equity in net income (loss) of affiliates” and is managed only on a total company basis and are, accordingly, reflected only in consolidated results. 11 AT&T INC.

REVENUE RECOGNITION We report our revenues net of sales taxes and record certain regulatory fees, primarily Universal Service Fund (USF) fees, on a net basis. Revenue is disaggregated by services provided by segment, with additional details provided for our Advanced Connectivity consumer and business relationships (see Note 4). Deferred Customer Contract Acquisition and Fulfillment Costs Costs to acquire and fulfill customer contracts, including commissions on service activations are deferred and amortized over the contract period or expected customer relationship life, which typically ranges from three years to seven years . The following table presents the deferred customer contract acquisition and fulfillment costs included on our consolidated balance sheets: June 30, December 31, Consolidated Balance Sheets 2026 2025 Deferred Acquisition Costs Prepaid and other current assets $ 3,620 $ 3,550 Other Assets 5,109 4,778 Total deferred customer contract acquisition costs $ 8,729 $ 8,328 Deferred Fulfillment Costs Prepaid and other current assets $ 1,683 $ 1,862 Other Assets 2,781 2,864 Total deferred customer contract fulfillment costs $ 4,464 $ 4,726 The following table presents deferred customer contract acquisition and fulfillment cost amortization, which are primarily included in “Selling, general and administrative” and “Other cost of revenues,” respectively, for the six months ended: June 30, June 30, Consolidated Statements of Income 2026 2025 Deferred acquisition cost amortization $ 2,037 $ 1,854 Deferred fulfillment cost amortization 960 1,171 Contract Assets and Liabilities A contract asset is recorded when revenue is recognized in advance of our right to bill and receive consideration. The contract asset will decrease as services are provided and billed. For example, when installment sales include promotional discounts (e.g., trade-in device credits) the difference between revenue recognized and consideration received is recorded as a contract asset to be amortized over the contract term. Our contract assets primarily relate to our wireless businesses. Promotional equipment sales where we offer handset credits, which are allocated between equipment and service in proportion to their standalone selling prices, when customers commit to a specified service period result in additional contract assets recognized. These contract assets will amortize over the service contract period, resulting in lower future service revenue. When consideration is received in advance of the delivery of goods or services, a contract liability is recorded. Reductions in the contract liability will be recorded as we satisfy the performance obligations. The following table presents contract assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets: June 30, December 31, Consolidated Balance Sheets 2026 2025 Contract asset $ 8,140 $ 7,816 Current portion in “Prepaid and other current assets” 4,385 4,131 Contract liability 4,175 4,409 Current portion in “Advanced billings and customer deposits” 3,926 4,136 14 AT&T INC. JUNE 30, 2026 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued Dollars in millions except per share amounts Our beginning of period contract liability recorded as customer contract revenue during 2026 was $ 3,570 . Remaining Performance Obligations Remaining performance obligations represent services we are required to provide to customers under bundled or discounted arrangements, which are satisfied as services are provided over the contract term. In determining the transaction price allocated, we do not include non-recurring charges and estimates for usage, nor do we consider arrangements with an original expected duration of less than one year, which are primarily prepaid wireless and residential internet agreements. Remaining performance obligations associated with business contracts reflect recurring charges billed, adjusted to reflect estimates for sales incentives and revenue adjustments. Performance obligations associated with wireless contracts are estimated using a portfolio approach in which we review all relevant promotional activities, calculating the remaining performance obligation using the average service component for the portfolio and the average device price. As of June 30, 2026, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $ 44,582 , of which we expect to recognize approximately 74 % by the end of 2027, with the balance recognized thereafter. NOTE 6. PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS Many of our employees are covered by one of our noncontributory pension plans. We also provide certain medical, dental, life insurance and death benefits to certain retired employees under various plans and accrue actuarially determined postretirement benefit costs. Our objective in funding these plans, in combination with the standards of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA), is to accumulate assets sufficient to provide benefits described in the plans to employees upon their retirement. We do not have significant funding requirements in 2026. During the second quarter of 2026, we voluntarily contributed $ 100 to our pension plans, with an additional $ 250 planned in the second half of 2026. We recognize actuarial gains and losses on pension and postretirement plan assets in our consolidated results as a component of “Other income (expense) – net” at our annual measurement date of December 31, unless earlier remeasurements are required. The following table details qualified pension and postretirement benefit costs included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The service cost component of net periodic pension (credit) cost is recorded in operating expenses in the consolidated statements of income while the remaining components are recorded in “Other income (expense) – net.” Three months ended Six months ended June 30, June 30, 2026 2025 2026 2025 Pension cost: Service cost – benefits earned during the period $ 100 $ 107 $ 201 $ 214 Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 362 401 723 801 Expected return on assets ( 524 ) ( 509 ) ( 1,049 ) ( 1,016 ) Amortization of prior service credit ( 12 ) ( 12 ) ( 23 ) ( 24 ) Net pension (credit) cost $ ( 74 ) $ ( 13 ) $ ( 148 ) $ ( 25 ) Postretirement cost: Service cost – benefits earned during the period $ 3 $ 5 $ 7 $ 9 Interest cost on accumulated postretirement benefit obligation 73 79 146 159 Expected return on assets ( 5 ) ( 8 ) ( 11 ) ( 18 ) Amortization of prior service credit ( 392 ) ( 460 ) ( 785 ) ( 919 ) Net postretirement (credit) cost $ ( 321 ) $ ( 384 ) $ ( 643 ) $ ( 769 ) Combined net pension and postretirement (credit) cost $ ( 395 ) $ ( 397 ) $ ( 791 ) $ ( 794 ) 15 AT&T INC. JUNE 30, 2026 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued Dollars in millions except per share amounts NOTE 7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DISCLOSURE The Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure framework in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” provides a three-tiered fair value hierarchy based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value. Level 1 refers to fair values determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 refers to fair values estimated using significant other observable inputs and Level 3 includes fair values estimated using significant unobservable inputs. The level of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The valuation methodologies described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of future net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. We believe our valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants. The use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. There have been no changes in the methodologies used since December 31, 2025. Long-Term Debt and Other Financial Instruments The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our long-term debt, including current maturities, and other financial instruments are summarized as follows: June 30, 2026 December 31, 2025 Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Amount Value Amount Value Notes and debentures 1 $ 142,578 $ 133,178 $ 134,718 $ 127,852 Investment securities 2 1,684 1,684 1,609 1,609 1 Includes credit agreement borrowings. 2 Excludes investments accounted for under the equity method. The carrying amount of debt with an original maturity of less than one year approximates fair value. The fair value measurements used for notes and debentures are considered Level 2 and are determined using various methods, including quoted prices for identical or similar securities in both active and inactive markets. Following is the fair value leveling for investment securities that are measured at fair value and derivatives as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Derivatives designated as hedging instruments are reflected as “Prepaid and other current assets,” “Other Assets,” “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities,” and “Other noncurrent liabilities” on our consolidated balance sheets.

A substantial portion of the fair values of our investment securities is estimated based on quoted market prices. Investments in equity securities not traded on a national securities exchange are valued at cost, less any impairment, and adjusted for changes resulting from observable, orderly transactions for identical or similar securities. Investments in debt securities not traded on a national securities exchange are valued using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows. The components comprising total gains and losses in the period on equity securities are as follows: Three months ended Six months ended June 30, June 30, 2026 2025 2026 2025 Total gains (losses) recognized on equity securities $ 79 $ 48 $ 47 $ 21 Gains (losses) recognized on equity securities sold — — — — Unrealized gains (losses) recognized on equity securities held at end of period $ 79 $ 48 $ 47 $ 21 At June 30, 2026, available-for-sale debt securities totaling $ 579 have maturities as follows - less than one year: $ 63 ; one to three years: $ 145 ; three to five years: $ 118 ; five or more years: $ 253 . Our cash equivalents (money market securities) and short-term investments (certificate and time deposits) are recorded at amortized cost, and the respective carrying amounts approximate fair values. Short-term investments are recorded in “Prepaid and other current assets” and our investment securities are recorded in “Other Assets” on the consolidated balance sheets. Derivative Financial Instruments We enter into derivative transactions to manage certain market risks, primarily interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk. This includes the use of interest rate swaps, interest rate locks, foreign exchange forward contracts and combined interest rate foreign exchange contracts (cross-currency swaps). We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. We record derivatives on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value that is derived from observable market data, including yield curves and foreign exchange rates (all of our derivatives are Level 2). Cash flows associated with derivative instruments are presented in the same category on the consolidated statements of cash flows as the item being hedged. Fair Value Hedging Periodically, we enter into and designate fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps as fair value hedges. The purpose of these swaps is to manage interest rate risk by managing our mix of fixed-rate and floating-rate debt. These swaps involve the receipt of fixed-rate amounts for floating interest rate payments over the life of the swaps without exchange of the underlying principal amount. We also designate most of our cross-currency swaps and foreign exchange contracts as fair value hedges. The purpose of these contracts is to hedge foreign currency risk associated with changes in spot rates on foreign denominated debt. For cross-currency hedges, we have elected to exclude the change in fair value of the swap related to both time value and cross-currency 17 AT&T INC. JUNE 30, 2026 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued Dollars in millions except per share amounts basis spread from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. For foreign exchange contracts, we have elected to exclude the change in fair value of forward points from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Unrealized and realized gains or losses from fair value hedges impact the same category on the consolidated statements of income as the item being hedged, including the earnings impact of excluded components. In instances where we have elected to exclude components from the assessment of hedge effectiveness related to fair value hedges, unrealized gains or losses on such excluded components are recorded as a component of accumulated OCI and recognized into earnings over the life of the hedging instrument. Unrealized gains on derivatives designated as fair value hedges are recorded at fair value as assets, and unrealized losses are recorded at fair market value as liabilities. Except for excluded components, changes in the fair value of derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges are offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets or liabilities through earnings. In the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, no ineffectiveness was measured on fair value hedges. Cash Flow Hedging We designate some of our cross-currency swaps as cash flow hedges to hedge our exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that are attributable to foreign currency risk and interest rate risk generated from our foreign-denominated debt. These agreements include initial and final exchanges of principal from fixed foreign denominated amounts to fixed U.S. dollar denominated amounts, to be exchanged at a specified rate that is usually determined by the market spot rate upon issuance. They also include an interest rate swap of a fixed or floating foreign denominated interest rate to a fixed U.S. dollar denominated interest rate. Unrealized gains on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recorded at fair value as assets and unrealized losses are recorded at fair value as liabilities. For derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges, changes in fair value are reported as a component of accumulated OCI and are reclassified into the consolidated statements of income in the same period the hedged transaction affects earnings. Periodically, we enter into and designate interest rate locks to partially hedge the risk of changes in interest payments attributable to increases in the benchmark interest rate during the period leading up to the probable issuance of fixed-rate debt. We designate our interest rate locks as cash flow hedges. Gains and losses when we settle our interest rate locks are amortized into income over the life of the related debt. Over the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify $ 59 from accumulated OCI to “Interest expense” due to the amortization of net losses on historical interest rate locks. Collateral and Credit-Risk Contingency We have entered into agreements with our derivative counterparties establishing collateral thresholds based on respective credit ratings and netting agreements. At June 30, 2026, we had posted collateral of $ 25 (a deposit asset) and held collateral of $ 177 (a receipt liability). Under the agreements, if AT&T’s credit rating had been downgraded two ratings levels by Fitch Ratings, one level by S&P and one level by Moody’s before the final collateral exchange in June, we would have been required to post additional collateral of $ 51 . If AT&T’s credit rating had been downgraded three ratings levels by Fitch Ratings, two levels by S&P and two levels by Moody’s, we would have been required to post additional collateral of $ 1,940 . At December 31, 2025, we had posted collateral of $ 513 (a deposit asset) and held collateral of $ 314 (a receipt liability).

ACQUISITIONS, DISPOSITIONS AND OTHER ADJUSTMENTS Fiber On February 2, 2026, we acquired substantially all of Lumen’s Mass Markets fiber business for $ 5,756 , including purchase price adjustments. The preliminary values of assets acquired were approximately $ 900 in customer relationships, $ 3,400 in property, plant and equipment, and $ 800 of goodwill. The customer relationships are managed in our Advanced Connectivity segment and will be amortized using the sum-of-the-months method over six years. Property, plant and equipment primarily represent the acquired fiber network, which we placed in Forged Fiber, a wholly owned subsidiary. In connection with this transaction, we plan to sell a controlling interest in Forged Fiber to an equity partner that will co-invest in the ongoing business. As such, Forged Fiber met the criteria of held-for-sale and accordingly is reflected as discontinued operations. These discontinued operations include the fiber network assets, which support the acquired customer relationships through intercompany transactions. The discontinued operations were also assigned a proportionate share of goodwill and acquisition costs and related cash flows. (See Note 12) NOTE 9. SALES OF RECEIVABLES We have agreements with various third-party financial institutions pertaining to the sales of certain types of our accounts receivable. The most significant of these programs are discussed in detail below and generally consist of (1) receivables arising from equipment installment plans, which are sold for cash and beneficial interests, such as deferred purchase price, when applicable, and (2) revolving trade receivables, which are sold for cash. Under the terms of our agreements for these programs, we continue to service the transferred receivables on behalf of the financial institutions. 19 AT&T INC.

The sales of receivables did not have a material impact on our consolidated statements of income or to “Total Assets” reported on our consolidated balance sheets. We reflect cash receipts on sold receivables as cash flows from operations in our consolidated statements of cash flows. In the event cash is received on the beneficial interests, those receipts are classified as cash flows from investing activities, when applicable. Our equipment installment and revolving receivables programs are discussed in detail below. The following table sets forth a summary of the receivables and accounts being serviced: June 30, 2026 December 31, 2025 Equipment Equipment Installment Revolving Installment Revolving Gross receivables: $ 3,220 $ 286 $ 3,725 $ 425 Balance sheet classification Accounts receivable Notes receivable 1,704 — 1,886 — Trade receivables 363 286 304 425 Other Assets Noncurrent notes and trade receivables 1,153 — 1,535 — Outstanding portfolio of receivables derecognized from our consolidated balance sheets $ 12,156 $ 3,040 $ 11,987 $ 2,940 Cash proceeds received, net of remittances 1 9,341 3,040 9,617 2,940 1 Represents amounts to which financial institutions remain entitled, excluding the beneficial interests. Equipment Installment Receivables Program We offer our customers the option to purchase certain wireless devices in installments over a specified period of time and, in many cases, once certain conditions are met, they may be eligible to trade in the original equipment for a new device and have the remaining unpaid balance paid or settled. We maintain a program under which we transfer a portion of these receivables through our bankruptcy-remote subsidiary in exchange for cash and beneficial interests. In the event a customer trades in a device prior to the end of the installment contract period, we agree to make a payment to the financial institutions equal to any outstanding remaining installment receivable balance. Accordingly, we record a guarantee obligation for this estimated amount at the time the receivables are transferred. 20 AT&T INC. JUNE 30, 2026 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued Dollars in millions except per share amounts The following table sets forth a summary of equipment installment receivables sold under this program: Three months ended Six months ended June 30, June 30, 2026 2025 2026 2025 Gross receivables sold 1 $ 2,863 $ 2,807 $ 6,379 $ 6,642 Net receivables sold 2 2,738 2,687 6,093 6,375 Cash proceeds received 2,832 2,779 6,315 6,577 Guarantee obligation recorded 217 219 496 499 1 Receivables net of promotion credits. 2 Receivables net of allowance and other reserves. Beneficial interests, when applicable, and guarantee obligations are initially recorded at estimated fair value and subsequently adjusted for changes in present value of expected cash flows. The estimation of their fair values is based on remaining installment payments expected to be collected and the expected timing and value of device trade-ins. The estimated value of the device trade-ins considers prices offered to us by independent third parties and contemplates changes in value after the launch of a device model. The fair value measurements used for the beneficial interests and the guarantee obligation are considered Level 3 under the Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure framework (see Note 7). The following table presents the previously transferred equipment installment receivables, which we repurchased in exchange for the associated beneficial interests: Three months ended Six months ended June 30, June 30, 2026 2025 2026 2025 Fair value of repurchased receivables $ 1,022 $ 1,011 $ 1,747 $ 2,948 Carrying value of beneficial interests 1,023 1,011 1,749 2,944 Gain (loss) on repurchases 1 $ ( 1 ) $ — $ ( 2 ) $ 4 1 These gains (losses) are included in “Selling, general and administrative” expense in the consolidated statements of income. At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our beneficial interests were $ 2,584 and $ 2,067 , respectively, of which $ 1,646 and $ 1,338 are included in “Prepaid and other current assets” on our consolidated balance sheets, with the remainder in “Other Assets.” The guarantee obligation at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $ 498 and $ 410 , respectively, of which $ 263 and $ 216 are included in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” on our consolidated balance sheets, with the remainder in “Other noncurrent liabilities.” Our maximum exposure to loss as a result of selling these equipment installment receivables is limited to the total amount of our beneficial interests and guarantee obligation. Revolving Receivables Program We maintain a revolving agreement that allows us to transfer up to $ 3,040 of certain receivables through our bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries to various financial institutions on a recurring basis in exchange for cash equal to the gross receivables transferred. This agreement is subject to renewal on an annual basis and the transfer limit may be expanded or reduced from time to time. As customers pay their balances, we transfer additional receivables into the program, resulting in our gross receivables sold exceeding net cash flow impacts (e.g., collect and reinvest). The transferred receivables are fully guaranteed by our bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries, which hold additional receivables in the amount of $ 286 that are pledged as collateral under this agreement. The transfers are recorded at fair value of the proceeds received and obligations assumed less derecognized receivables. Our maximum exposure to loss related to these receivables transferred is limited to the derecognized amount outstanding. 21 AT&T INC.

NOTE 10. SUPPLIER AND VENDOR FINANCING PROGRAMS Supplier Financing Program We actively manage the timing of our supplier payments for operating items to optimize the use of our cash and seek to make payments on 90-day or greater terms, while providing suppliers with access to bank facilities that permit earlier payment at their cost. Our supplier financing program does not result in changes to our normal, contracted payment cycles or cash from operations. At the supplier’s election, they can receive payment of AT&T obligations prior to the scheduled due dates, at a discounted price from the third-party financial institution. The discounted price paid to participating suppliers is based on a variable rate that is indexed to the overnight borrowing rate. We agree to pay the financial institution the stated amount generally within 90 days of receipt of the invoice. We do not have pledged assets or other guarantees under our supplier financing program. Suppliers had elected to sell to the third-party financial institutions $ 3,689 and $ 3,090 of our outstanding payment obligations as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. These amounts are included in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” on our consolidated balance sheets. Our supplier financing programs are reported as operating or investing (when capitalizable) activities in our consolidated statements of cash flows when paid. Direct Supplier Financing We also have arrangements with suppliers of handset inventory that allow us to extend the stated payment terms by up to approximately 120 days, with an average of 85 days outstanding, at an additional cost to us (variable rate extension fee). We had $ 6,725 of direct supplier financing outstanding as of June 30, 2026 and $ 6,901 as of December 31, 2025, which are included in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” on our consolidated balance sheets. Our direct supplier financing is reported as operating activities in our statements of cash flows when paid. Vendor Financing We enter into multi-year software licensing arrangements, which, consistent with industry standards, are paid over the license terms of two to five years. Additionally, in connection with capital improvements and the acquisition of other productive assets, we negotiate favorable payment terms of 120 days or more. We refer to these arrangements as vendor financing, with the balances and activities including equipment and software arrangements. Vendor financing payments are reported as financing activities in our statements of cash flows when paid. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we recorded vendor financing commitments of $ 1,603 and $ 831 , respectively. We had $ 2,868 of vendor financing payables at June 30, 2026, with $ 1,875 included in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” and $ 1,892 of vendor financing payables at December 31, 2025, with $ 956 included in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities.” 22 AT&T INC.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS As discussed in Notes 1 and 8, on February 2, 2026, we acquired substantially all of Lumen’s Mass Markets fiber business, including fiber network assets that are held in a new, wholly owned subsidiary, Forged Fiber, which is reflected as discontinued operations. Forged Fiber will continue to support the accompanying acquired fiber customers retained by our Advanced Connectivity segment. To reflect ongoing commercial arrangements following the disposal, results in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026 have been presented on a gross basis, with approximately $ 137 and $ 232 , respectively, of operating expenses reported in continuing operations and the corresponding revenues reported in discontinued operations.

AT&T products and services are provided or offered by subsidiaries and affiliates of AT&T Inc. under the AT&T brand and not by AT&T Inc., and the names of the particular subsidiaries and affiliates providing the services generally have been omitted. AT&T is a holding company whose subsidiaries and affiliates operate worldwide in the telecommunications and technology industries. You should read this discussion in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes (Notes). Percentage increases and decreases that are not considered meaningful are denoted with a dash. On February 2, 2026, we closed our transaction with Lumen Technologies, Inc. (Lumen) and acquired substantially all of Lumen’s Mass Markets fiber business. The acquisition included customer relationships, which we include with our advanced home internet services and fiber network assets that were placed in a wholly owned subsidiary, Forged Fiber 37 Services, LLC (Forged Fiber). We plan to sell a controlling interest in Forged Fiber to an equity partner that will co-invest in the ongoing business. As such, Forged Fiber met the criteria of held-for-sale and accordingly is reflected as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements and are not included in our discussion of continuing operations. (See Notes 8 and 12) Consolidated Results Our financial results from continuing operations are summarized in the discussions that follow.

Operating revenues in Mexico were also higher due to favorable foreign exchange impacts . Offsetting the increases were lower Legacy revenues as we continue to work towards the decommissioning of our copper-based legacy network. Operations and support expenses increased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026. The increase in the second quarter was primarily due to an asset abandonment charge associated with the reprioritization of our spectrum strategy, higher advertising expense, incr emental customer costs related to our acquired mass markets fiber business and higher bad debt expenses driven by subscriber growth. These increases were partially offset by cost reductions from transformation initiatives, lower content licensing fees and gains on tower transactions. The increase for the first six months was primarily due to higher wireless sales volumes, which drove higher equipment, selling and bad debt expenses. T he increase was also due to higher network costs that included vendor credits in the prior year, and 25 AT&T INC. JUNE 30, 2026 Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Dollars in millions except per share amounts incremental customer costs related to our acquired mass markets fiber business, which were partially offset by cost reductions from transformation initiatives, higher restructuring charges in the prior year and lower content licensing fees. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026, primarily due to lower depreciation from fully depreciated legacy assets, partially offset by ongoing capital spending for strategic initiatives such as fiber and network upgrades. Operating income increased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026. Our operating income margin in the second quarter increased from 21.1% in 2025 to 22.3% in 2026 and for the first six months increased from 19.9% in 2025 to 21.7% in 2026. Interest expense increased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026, primarily due to higher debt balances and interest rates on long-term borrowings. Equity in net income (loss) of affiliates decreased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026, primarily due to the sale of our interest in DIRECTV Entertainment Holdings, LLC to TPG Capital on July 2, 2025. Other income (expense) – net decreased in the second quarter and increased for the first six months of 2026. The decrease in the second quarter was primarily due to a gain recognized in the second quarter of 2025 associated with a prior disposition, partially offset by higher returns on benefit-related investments and interest income from higher average cash balances. The increase for the first six months was primarily due to interest income from higher average cash balances. Income tax expense decreased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026. The decrease was primarily due to lower income from continuing operations before income tax and the resolution of certain Internal Revenue Service (IRS) examinations. Our effective tax rate was 13.5% in the second quarter and 17.5% for the first six months of 2026, versus 20.3% and 21.0% in the comparable periods in the prior year, reflecting the resolution of certain IRS examinations. Segment Results Our segments are comprised of strategic business units or other operations that offer products and services to different customer segments over various technology platforms and/or in different geographies that are managed accordingly. Effective with our first-quarter 2026 reporting, we realigned our internal management and reporting structure to reflect the evolution of our business model to focus on delivering converged advanced connectivity services across 5G and fiber to consumer and business customers. This new segment reporting structure also provides better visibility into the progress of exiting our copper-based legacy operations. Our segment results presented in Note 4 and discussed below follow our internal management reporting. We evaluate segment performance based on operating income as well as EBITDA and/or EBITDA margin. See “Discussion and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” for a reconciliation of EBITDA and EBITDA margin to the most comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We have three reportable segments: Advanced Connectivity, Legacy and Latin America. The Advanced Connectivity segment provides domestic 5G and fiber-based wireless, internet and other advanced connectivity services to consumer and business customers. We also provide supplemental information on our advanced consumer and business customer relationships as the product lifecycles in these customer categories influence the growth trajectories of Advanced Connectivity segment results. The Legacy segment provides domestic legacy voice and data services to consumer and business customers over our copper-based network. Legacy segment results include revenues derived from copper-based services and direct operating costs. The Latin America segment provides wireless service and equipment in Mexico. 26 AT&T INC.

Wireless service revenue increased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026 driven by growth in retail wireless subscribers in underpenetrated categories and converged accounts, and pricing actions that were partially offset by promotional discounts on wireless subscriber additions. The effective management of subscriber churn is critical to our ability to maximize revenue growth and to maintain and improve margins. Phone churn was lower in the second quarter and slightly higher for the first six months of 2026, reflecting the competitive dynamics of the industry. Advanced home internet revenue increased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026 driven by an increase in fiber and AIA revenues. Fiber revenues increased 21.4% and 21.3% in the second quarter of 2026 and for the first six months, due to growth in fiber customers, including customers of our acquired mass markets fiber business . We expect revenue growth to continue as we invest further in building our fiber footprint. AIA revenue increases exceeded 100% as we continue to make these services available in additional markets and ramp marketing and promotion activities. Business fiber and advanced connectivity revenues increased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026 driven by higher fiber and fixed wireless revenues. Business transitional and other revenues decreased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026 driven by lower demand for Virtual Private Network (VPN) and wholesale services, both of which we expect to continue. Other service revenues decreased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026, reflecting the continued decline in the number of consumer VoIP customers. Equipment revenue decreased in the second quarter and increased for the first six months of 2026, with lower hardware sales to business customers in the second quarter offset by higher wireless device sales volumes. The increase for the first six months was primarily driven by higher wireless device sales volumes. 28 AT&T INC. JUNE 30, 2026 Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Dollars in millions except per share amounts Operations and support expenses increased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026. The increase in the second quarter was primarily due to higher advertising expense, incre mental customer costs related to our acquired mass markets fiber business and higher bad debt expenses driven by subscriber growth. These increases were partially offset by cost reductions from transformation initiatives, lower content licensing fees and gains on tower transactions. The increase for the first six months was primarily due to higher wireless sales volumes, which drove higher equipment, selling and bad debt expenses. The increase was also due to higher network costs that included vendor credits in the prior year, and incremental customer costs related to our acquired mass markets fiber business, which were partially offset by cost reductions from transformation initiatives and lower content licensing fees. Depreciation expense decreased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026, primarily due to lower depreciation from fully depreciated legacy assets, partially offset by ongoing capital spending for strategic initiatives such as fiber and network upgrades. Depreciation of our shared network, including copper-based assets prior to decommissioning, is managed in our Advanced Connectivity segment, consistent with our composite group depreciation methodology. Operating income increased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026. Our Advanced Connectivity operating income margin in the second quarter increased from 22.2% in 2025 to 25.7% in 2026 and for the first six months increased from 22.1% in 2025 to 24.9% in 2026. Our Advanced Connectivity EBITDA margin in the second quarter increased from 40.5% in 2025 to 42.0% in 2026 and for the first six months increased from 40.4% in 2025 to 41.3% in 2026.

Operations and support represent direct operating costs and decreased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026. Expense declines were primarily driven by lower personnel and other costs resulting from the decommissioning of our legacy network and lower fulfillment cost amortization, which we expect to continue. These decreases were partially offset by vendor settlements. Operating income decreased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026. Our Legacy operating income and EBITDA margins in the second quarter decreased from 43.6% in 2025 to 32.0% in 2026 and for the first six months decreased from 43.3% in 2025 to 33.4% in 2026. 29 AT&T INC.

Operations and support expenses increased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026, driven by unfavorable foreign exchange rates and higher bad debt expenses. Depreciation and amortization expense increased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026, driven by unfavorable foreign exchange rates and spectrum renewal fees, with accelerated depreciation impacting the first three months of the year. Operating income decreased in the second quarter and for the first six months of 2026. Our Mexico operating income margin in the second quarter decreased from 4.4% in 2025 to 3.1% in 2026 and for the first six months decreased from 4.4% in 2025 to 2.4% in 2026.

JUNE 30, 2026 Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations- Continued Dollars in millions except per share amounts COMPETITIVE AND REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT Overview AT&T subsidiaries operating within the United States are subject to federal and state regulations. AT&T subsidiaries operating outside the United States are subject to the jurisdiction of national and supranational regulations in the markets where service is provided. Complying with these regulations may affect our results of operations and cash flow, and compliance may be very costly. On November 15, 2023, pursuant to a congressional directive, the FCC adopted rules to “facilitate” equal access to broadband and prevent digital discrimination in broadband access. The rules prohibited covered entities from implementing policies or practices not justified by genuine issues of technical or economic feasibility, that differentially impact consumers’ access to broadband internet access service based on prohibited characteristics (including income level, race and ethnicity) or that have such differential impact, whether intentional or not. The rules broadly applied prospectively to all aspects of an ISP’s service that could impact a consumer’s ability to access broadband. Several business associations filed appeals challenging the rules and several of those appeals were consolidated in the Eighth Circuit. On May 6, 2026, the Eighth Circuit vacated the FCC’s digital discrimination rules, holding that under the plain language of the implementing law, the FCC could not adopt rules imposing “disparate impact” liability. The FCC will need to adopt new rules consistent with the statute. For a further discussion of regulations impacting AT&T and its subsidiaries, please see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation—Regulatory Landscape” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2025. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 2025 Cash provided by operating activities $ 18,396 $ 18,812 Cash used in investing activities (13,233) (11,044) Cash used in financing activities (1,417) (598) June 30, December 31, 2026 2025 Cash and cash equivalents $ 17,570 $ 18,234 Total debt 143,954 136,100 Our cash balance at June 30, 2026 remained elevated as we anticipate the completion of our pending transaction with EchoStar Corporation (EchoStar). We had $17,570 in cash and cash equivalents available at June 30, 2026, decreasing $664 since December 31, 2025. Cash and cash equivalents included cash of $5,744 and money market funds and other cash equivalents of $11,826. Approximately $1,251 of our cash and cash equivalents were held in accounts outside of the U.S. and may be subject to restrictions on repatriation. For the first six months of 2026, cash inflows were primarily provided by cash receipts from operations, including cash from our sale and transfer of our receivables to third parties. These inflows exceeded cash used to meet the needs of the business, including, but not limited to, payment of operating expenses. The cash generated from operating activities was primarily used to fund capital improvements and business acquisitions, repay long-term debt, repurchase common stock and make dividend payments to stockholders. We maintain availability under our credit facilities and our commercial paper program to meet our short-term liquidity requirements. Cash Provided by Operating Activities from Continuing Operations During the first six months of 2026, cash provided by operating activities was $18,396, compared to $18,812 for the first six months of 2025, with the prior year benefiting from $1,675 of cash received from DIRECTV, net of related tax payments. Cash from operations in 2026 includes increases resulting from lower cash tax payments and the timing of working capital payments, which were partially offset by $100 of voluntarily contribution to our pension plans. 32 AT&T INC. JUNE 30, 2026 Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations- Continued Dollars in millions except per share amounts We actively manage the timing of our supplier payments for operating items to optimize the use of our cash. Among other things, we seek to make payments on 90-day or greater terms, while providing the suppliers with access to bank facilities that permit earlier payments at their cost (referred to as supplier financing program). In addition, for payments to suppliers of handset inventory, as part of our working capital initiatives, we have arrangements that allow us to extend the stated payment terms by up to approximately 120 days, with an average of 85 days outstanding, at an additional cost to us (referred to as direct supplier financing). The net impact of direct supplier financing, including principal and interest payments, was to decrease cash from operating activities approximately $272 and $2,146 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. All supplier financing payments are due within one year. (See Note 10) Cash Used in Investing Activities from Continuing Operations For the first six months of 2026, cash used in investing activities totaled $13,233 and consisted primarily of $10,577 (including interest during construction) for capital expenditures. During the first six months of 2026, investing activities also included $360 of FirstNet sustainability payments, net of reinvestment, and approximately $574 related to the note receivable payment from DIRECTV. In addition, we paid $1,018 in connection with our January 2026 acquisition of select spectrum licenses from United States Cellular Corporation (UScellular) and $5,756 in connection with our February 2026 acquisition of Lumen’s Mass Markets fiber business, of which $1,656 was included in investing activities from continuing operations and $4,100 was included as investing activities from discontinued operations (see Notes 1, 8 and 12). We enter into multi-year software licensing arrangements, which are typically paid over the license terms of two to five years and referred to as vendor financing. Additionally, for capital improvements, we have negotiated favorable vendor payment terms of 120 days or more with some of our vendors, which are also referred to as vendor financing. Vendor financing is excluded from capital expenditures and reported as financing activities. For the first six months of 2026, vendor financing payments were $643, compared to $423 for the first six months of 2025. Capital expenditures for the first six months of 2026 were $10,577, and when including $643 cash paid for vendor financing, capital investment was $11,220 ($1,623 higher than the prior-year comparable period). The vast majority of our capital expenditures are spent on our networks, including product development and related support systems. During the first six months of 2026, we placed $1,603 of productive assets in service under vendor financing arrangements (compared to $831 in the prior-year comparable period). The amount of capital expenditures is influenced by demand for services and products, capacity needs and network enhancements. On August 25, 2025, we agreed to purchase Federal Communications Commission (FCC) licenses in the 600 MHz and 3.45 GHz bands from EchoStar Corporation for approximately $23,000, subject to certain adjustments. The transaction is subject to certain closing conditions. The FCC licenses will be used to expand our 5G network, meet future capacity demands and support future wireless communications services. We signed a short-term spectrum manager lease on the 3.45 GHz spectrum, which was deployed in cell sites covering nearly two-thirds of the U.S. population. We expect to close this transaction by the end of July 2026 and will fund the acquisition using a combination of cash on hand and term loan borrowings. Cash Provided by or Used in Financing Activities from Continuing Operations For the first six months of 2026, cash used in financing activities totaled $1,417 and was comprised of debt repayments, common stock repurchases, dividend payments, and vendor financing payments, partially offset by issuances of long-term debt. 33 AT&T INC. JUNE 30, 2026 Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations- Continued Dollars in millions except per share amounts A tabular summary of our debt activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 is as follows: First Quarter Second Quarter Six months ended June 30, 2026 Issuance of Notes and Debentures: USD notes $ 6,465 $ 5,939 $ 12,404 CAD notes 1,633 — 1,633 Debt Issuances $ 8,098 $ 5,939 $ 14,037 Repayments USD notes $ (3,741) $ — $ (3,741) EUR notes (1,103) (32) (1,135) AUD notes (216) — (216) Other (187) (119) (306) Repayments of long-term debt $ (5,247) $ (151) $ (5,398) The weighted average interest rate of our long-term debt portfolio, including credit agreement borrowings and the impact of derivatives, was approximately 4.4% as of June 30, 2026 and 4.2% as of December 31, 2025. We had $142,578 of total notes and debentures outstanding at June 30, 2026. This also included Euro, British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, Australian dollar, and Swiss franc denominated debt that totaled approximately $34,652. At June 30, 2026, we had $9,323 of long-term debt maturing within one year. We had no outstanding commercial paper or other short-term borrowings on June 30, 2026. For the first six months of 2026, we paid $643 of cash under our vendor financing program, compared to $423 in the prior-year comparable period. Total vendor financing payables included in our June 30, 2026 consolidated balance sheet were $2,868, with $1,875 due within one year (in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities”) and the remainder predominantly due within five years (in “Other noncurrent liabilities”). During the first six months of 2026, we repurchased approximately 174 million shares totaling $4,435 under our $10,000 common stock repurchase authorization approved by the Board of Directors in December 2024 (the “2024 Authorization”), excluding brokerage fees and the one percent excise tax imposed by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. On January 27, 2026, the Board approved an authorization to repurchase an additional $10,000 of common stock (the “2026 Authorization”). At June 30, 2026, we had approximately $1,296 remaining under the 2024 Authorization, and $10,000 remaining under the 2026 Authorization. We paid dividends on common and preferred shares of $3,973 during the first six months of 2026, compared with $4,135 for the first six months of 2025. Dividends on common stock declared by our Board of Directors totaled $0.5550 per share in the first six months of 2026 and 2025. Our dividend policy considers the expectations and requirements of stockholders, capital funding requirements of AT&T and long-term growth opportunities. Credit Facilities The following summary of our various credit and loan agreements does not purport to be complete. The summaries of the Revolving Credit Agreement and Term Loan (each as defined below) are qualified in their entirety by reference to each agreement filed as exhibits to our Annual Report on Form 10-K. We use credit facilities as a tool in managing our liquidity status. We currently have one $12,000 revolving credit agreement that terminates on November 3, 2030 (Revolving Credit Agreement). No amount was outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2026. In November 2025, we entered into a $17,500 Delayed Draw Term Loan Credit Agreement (Term Loan), with Bank of America, N.A., as agent. The Term Loan is comprised of (i) a $6,000 364-day delayed draw term loan facility (364-Day Term 34 AT&T INC. JUNE 30, 2026 Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations- Continued Dollars in millions except per share amounts Loan Facility) and (ii) a $11,500 two-year delayed draw term loan facility (Two-Year Term Loan Facility). Each of the 364-Day Term Loan Facility and Two-Year Term Loan Facility is available for a single draw at any time before November 3, 2026. No amount was outstanding under the Term Loan as of June 30, 2026. In March 2026, we entered into two bilateral term loan facilities totaling $1,500, that will allow us to borrow funds during the year. When drawn, $500 will be due in 2031 and $1,000 will be due in 2033. Advances will bear interest at a variable rate based on the secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) plus a margin. No amounts were outstanding under these facilities as of June 30, 2026. In May 2026, we entered into a $1,000 bilateral term loan facility, that will allow us to borrow funds during the year. When drawn, $1,000 will be due in 2029. Advances will bear interest at a variable rate based on SOFR plus a margin. No amount was outstanding under this facility as of June 30, 2026. We also utilize other external financing sources, which include various credit arrangements supported by government agencies to support network equipment purchases as well as a commercial paper program. The Revolving Credit Agreement and the Term Loan contain covenants that are customary for an issuer with investment grade senior debt credit ratings, including a net debt-to-EBITDA financial ratio covenant requiring us to maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, a ratio of not more than 3.75-to-1. As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with the covenants for our credit facilities. Collateral Arrangements Most of our counterparty collateral arrangements require cash collateral posting by AT&T only when derivative market values exceed certain thresholds. Under these arrangements, which cover the majority of our approximate $36,037 derivative portfolio, counterparties are still required to post collateral. During the first six months of 2026, we received $351 of cash collateral, on a net basis. Cash postings under these arrangements vary with changes in credit ratings and netting agreements. (See Note 7) Other Our total capital consists of debt (long-term debt and debt maturing within one year), redeemable noncontrolling interest and stockholders’ equity. Our capital structure does not include debt issued by our equity method investments. At June 30, 2026, our debt ratio was 52.8%, compared to 51.7% at June 30, 2025 and 51.4% at December 31, 2025. The debt ratio is affected by the same factors that affect total capital, and reflects our recent debt issuances, repayments and reclassifications related to redemption of noncontrolling interests. 35 AT&T INC. JUNE 30, 2026 Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations- Continued Dollars in millions except per share amounts DISCUSSION AND RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES We also evaluate segment performance based on EBITDA, which is defined as operating income excluding depreciation and amortization, and/or EBITDA margin, which is defined as EBITDA divided by total revenue. EBITDA is used as part of our management reporting, and we believe EBITDA to be a relevant and useful measurement to our investors as it measures the cash generation potential of our operations. EBITDA does not give effect to depreciation and amortization expenses incurred in operating income nor is it burdened by cash used for debt service requirements and thus does not reflect available funds for distributions, reinvestment or other discretionary uses. There are material limitations to using these non-GAAP financial measures. EBITDA and EBITDA margin, as we have defined them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

JUNE 30, 2026 Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk At June 30, 2026, we had no interest rate swaps. We have fixed-to-fixed and floating-to-fixed cross-currency swaps on foreign currency-denominated debt instruments with a U.S. dollar notional value of $36,037 to hedge our exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. These derivatives have been designated as fair value or cash flow hedges with a net fair value of $(1,827) at June 30, 2026. Item 4. Controls and Procedures The registrant maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the registrant is recorded, processed, summarized, accumulated and communicated to its management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2026. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2026. There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. 37 AT&T INC.
