Pascal Desroches to Update Shareholders at the 2025 Mizuho Technology Conference on June 10
DALLAS, /CNW/ -- Tomorrow, AT&T's chief financial officer will participate in a fireside chat where he will discuss the Company's multi-year strategic growth plan. Key Takeaways: AT&T reiterates full-year 2025 financial and operational guidance. AT&T is pursuing a multi-year strategic growth plan that centers around putting customers first, continued network investment and increased capital returns to shareholders. Pascal Desroches, chief financial officer, AT&T Inc. (NYSE: T), will speak tomorrow at the 2025 Mizuho Technology Conference where he will provide an update to shareholders. AT&T continues to make progress on becoming the best connectivity provider in America The Company continues to execute on its multi-year growth plan and differentiate its position within the connectivity industry by increasing its opportunity to serve customers how they want to be served, by one provider with fiber and 5G in a converged manner. The Company recently announced an agreement to acquire substantially all of Lumen's Mass Markets fiber internet connectivity business. The transaction, which is expected to close in the first half of 2026, will expand investment in critical U.S. connectivity infrastructure, create new middle-class jobs and accelerate high-speed fiber internet access to millions of Americans. Additionally, this deal will enable AT&T to significantly expand access to AT&T Fiber in new major metro areas and allow the Company to serve more customers with 5G and fiber together. AT&T continues to extend its fiber leadership with plans to reach approximately 60 million total fiber locations by year-end 2030. 1 Ultimately, this transaction aligns with the priorities outlined at AT&T's 2024 Analyst & Investor Day, including its goal of becoming the best connectivity provider in America while providing more value to customers, shareholders and the Company. AT&T is seeing solid customer demand and remains on track to achieve its 2025 financial and operational guidance The wireless industry remains both healthy and competitive, and the Company is pleased with how the Mobility business is performing in the second quarter. In Consumer Wireline, the Company continues to expand access to AT&T Fiber – America's fastest internet with the most reliable speeds. 2 Trends in AT&T Fiber penetration rates remain consistent, with net adds varying from quarter to quarter based primarily on the pace of new fiber locations passed, seasonality and marketplace dynamics. For the second-quarter 2025, the Company continues to expect capital investment* in the $4.5 billion to $5 billion range and free cash flow* of approximately $4 billion. AT&T reiterates all full-year 2025 financial and operational guidance. Additionally, the Company continues to operate the business to achieve the financial plan and capital returns outlined at its 2024 Analyst & Investor Day. AT&T remains committed to repurchasing shares under the previously announced $10 billion authorization, with plans to repurchase at least $3 billion of common stock by year-end and the remainder during 2026. Conference details and more are available on the AT&T Investor Relations website Full conference details are posted on the AT&T Investor Relations website, including a replay of the webcast. To automatically receive AT&T financial news by email, please subscribe to email alerts. 1 "Total locations" includes consumer and business locations (i) passed with fiber and (ii) served with fiber through commercial open-access providers. 2 Limited availability in select areas.

Elbows-up tourism surge could see sector ‘eke out' a gain even as Americans stay away
From the front desk of Hotel Bedford in Goderich, Ont., Lynda Cross welcomes guests from regions ranging from southern Ontario to the South Pacific. 'A lot of them come from Toronto,' said the manager, standing just inside the Romanesque arches of the 129-year-old establishment. 'Just lately, we've had a few groups come from Australia' — a first, she said. But one crop of tourists has been conspicuously absent this year: Americans. 'May and June have been slow.'

Browse here. A groundswell of economic patriotism has stoked curiosity in Canadian destinations, fuelling a domestic bookings surge as travellers turn away from cross-border trips. But a drop in American visitors north of the border and fears that many Canadians will simply stay home to save money has many wondering whether homegrown and overseas tourism can make up for the stateside decline. Canadian vacationers' boycotting the U.S. could net this country's tourism sector up to $8.8 billion in extra business this year as travellers explore spots closer to home, according to a report from the Conference Board of Canada. An April survey on travel intentions prompted the group to predict a windfall despite fewer border crossings this year by American tourists — Canada's largest source of inbound travellers by far. The number of Americans who visited Canada by car fell nearly 11 per cent in April compared with the same month last year, the third straight month of year-over-year decreases, according to Statistics Canada. While trip numbers for Canadians heading to the U.S. have fallen off far more steeply as part of a backlash against U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs and '51st state' threats, Americans' more moderate pullback owes to factors ranging from pinched pocketbooks to fears of feeling unwelcome to angst over the border crossing on the drive home. The American retreat could hit communities that hug the border especially hard. 'Border towns that have tended to experience the shorter, more frequent back-and-forth visits — those are going to be communities that are going to be more heavily affected,' said Andrew Siegwart, who heads the Tourism Industry Association of Ontario. Duty-free stores have seen their revenue drop by 60 to 80 per cent in the last few months, according to an association representing 32 of the mostly mom-and-pop shops. Whether overseas travellers can make up for much of the lower American traffic across the country is questionable. Visitor volume from China, previously a key source of tourists, sat at 40 per cent of 2019 levels last year amid ongoing restrictions on group travel to Canada, according to Destination Canada. The federal government imposed new visa requirements on Mexican visitors last year, making it harder for tourists from that country to come. 'Travel from India has also been down for a number of reasons. So it's going to take some time,' said Siegwart. However, many America-averse Canadians are spending their travel budget in their own backyards. More than half of respondents to a survey released Monday by Ontario's travel regulator said they were more likely to make excursions closer to home, with the trend holding across all age groups. 'It could be a year where we manage to stay on par with last year, or maybe even eke out a little bit of a gain,' said Siegwart. But he acknowledged the hurdle of consumer anxiety over the economy. 'I'm cautiously optimistic,' he said, 'but it's too early to tell.' Summer bookings were either the same or higher than last year at two out of three businesses surveyed by the association in a poll released last month. John Steele, who owns seven hotels in Newfoundland and Labrador and one in Fredericton, said visitor levels look 'pretty good' at most of his properties but softer in Gander. New direct flights to St. John's from London and Paris have made it easier for international travellers to come from away. 'Air access seems to be improving for us. That's a big thing for us,' Steele said. At Okanagan Wine Country Tours in British Columbia, bookings from Europe and the United Kingdom have risen about 20 per cent year-over-year, said partner and manager Marsha Morrish. 'The traffic from Quebec is up substantially,' she added. Americans are more tepid — even those who do head north. 'They did email me to do a bit of a temperature check on how Canadians were feeling about Americans visiting,' Morrish said, referring to a Colorado couple coming up to sample Pinot Gris. While there's a chance American tourist numbers could surge, it's unlikely to happen this year, Siegwart suggested — including for corporate gatherings. 'Some convention centres, both in Ontario and across the country, have seen some drops in American conference bookings.' Much of it has to do with personal safety and security, as some workers worry about how they'll be treated at the border. 'Depending on your immigration status, depending on if you're a member of an LGBTQIA community, if your gender markers or identities on your passports are different than your gender expression — all sorts of things like that are really coming into play,' Siegwart said. 'My colleagues south of the border are a little more cautious in how they plan things because of the unpredictable way in which their administration is conducting business.' On the flip side, there's more interest from corporate event planners in Europe 'who still want to come to North America but see Canada as a safer bet.' Some Americans remain undeterred though. 'I've seen way more people from the States this year,' said Wendy Mooney, owner of Country Hideaway RV Campground, which sits barely a kilometre from the border in the B.C.'s West Kootenay region. 'Some people just fly by the seat of their pants.'
