Earnings live: AT&T stock slides despite subscriber surge; Tesla and Google earnings in focus
Second quarter earnings season is in full swing, and the results have been largely positive so far, with more positive surprises than negative ones. Companies had a lower bar to clear coming into the quarter, as analysts tempered their expectations amid President Trump's tariffs, stocks' lofty valuations, and uncertainty about the health of the US economy. This week, investors will get a glimpse of how corporate leaders are navigating these challenges, with 112 S&P 500 companies reporting results, including GM (GM), Coca-Cola (KO), Alphabet (GOOGL, GOOG), and Tesla (TSLA). Data from FactSet published Friday showed that with 12% of the index having reported results, analysts now expect S&P 500 companies to report a 5.6% jump in earnings per share during the second quarter. Heading into the quarter, analysts expected S&P 500 earnings to rise 5% in Q2, which would mark the slowest pace of earnings growth since the fourth quarter of 2023. Here are the latest updates from corporate America. AT&T delivers earnings, subscriber beat but the stock is sliding AT&T (T) stock fell over 3% in premarket trading despite the telecom provider reporting a huge subscriber beat.

Good example of that will play out with Texas Instruments (TXN) in today's session. The stock is getting pounded in premarket by 12% on 3Q EPS guidance that was 14 cents below consensus on the low end. TXN blamed weak demand in the auto market (heard the same in GM's (GM) outlook on Tuesday). Whatever the case, TXN's outlook is pressuring on similar names in the space in Microchip (MCHP), Analog Devices (ADI), NXP Semiconductors (NXPI) and On Semi (ON).

In the companies' earnings calls, D.R. Horton CEO Paul Romanowski noted a reduction in its "stick and brick costs" and said the company wasn't having labor availability issues. Similarly, PulteGroup CFO James Ossowski highlighted that the company does not see as large a tariff impact as it did previously. "During our Q1 call, we indicated a potential impact of tariffs of approximately $5,000 per unit that could hit in the latter part of Q4," Ossowski said. "At this time, we now expect any impact from tariffs in Q4 to be lower..." PulteGroup CEO Ryan Marshall also noted that a drop in mortgage rates in the last two weeks of June stimulated activity, though the housing market still remains uncertain as affordability challenges weigh on many would-be buyers.

AT&T subscriber additions top estimates as group notes savings from new tax law
- AT&T posted better-than-anticipated wireless subscriber additions in the second quarter on Wednesday, as the telecoms group pushes to entice customers with options that bundle high-speed fiber offerings and 5G mobile services. The U.S. wireless carrier, which has been grappling with intense competition from the likes of Verizon (NYSE:VZ) and T-Mobile, reported 401,000 net monthly bill-paying wireless phone subscribers. Bloomberg consensus forecasts had called for 300,876. Like Verizon, AT&T (NYSE:T) also said that it expects to see a boost from new tax laws in President Donald Trump's signature fiscal policy bill, which was signed into law earlier this month. Included in the legislation is a section allowing firms to immediately write off the full cost of some new equipment. AT&T said it now anticipates $6.5 billion to $8 billion in cash tax savings during its 2025-2027 financial years, relative to the guidance it provided at its investor day last year. This will translate into savings of $1.5 billion to $2 billion in 2025, followed by reduced expenses of $2.5 billion to $3 billion in 2026 and 2027. A total of $3.5 billion of savings will then be invested into AT&T's network to accelerate the build-out of its fiber internet capabilities. AT&T and its peers have been racing to bolster their fiber-optic assets in order to tap into growing consumer data use. Still, AT&T maintained its long-term financial outlook. Earlier this week, Verizon lifted the lower end of its annual profit guidance. During the second quarter, AT&T's adjusted core earnings came in at $11.7 billion on revenue of $30.8 billion, compared with estimates of $11.6 billion and $30.43 billion, respectively. Shares of AT&T were lower in premarket U.S. trading.

Healey signs agreement paving way for export of Typhoon jets to Turkey
The Defence Secretary has signed an agreement paving the way for the export of Typhoon fighter jets to Turkey. John Healey and Turkish counterpart Yaşar Guler signed a memorandum of understanding at the International Defence Industry Fair in Istanbul. It comes after the German government reportedly cleared the path for the delivery of 40 Typhoon Eurofighter jets to Turkey. 'Today's agreement is a big step towards Turkiye buying UK Typhoon fighter jets,' Mr Healey said. 'It shows this government's determination to secure new defence deals, building on our relationships abroad to deliver for British working people. 'Equipping Turkiye with Typhoons would strengthen Nato's collective defence, and boost both our countries' industrial bases by securing thousands of skilled jobs across the UK for years to come.' More than a third of each aircraft will be manufactured in the UK, with final assembly taking place at the BAE Systems site in Lancashire. The Typhoon jet programme is a partnership with Germany, Spain and Italy. Germany's security council has signed off on a Turkish request to buy the jets, which will use German parts, Der Spiegel reported, and has informed Turkish and Greek leaders of the decision. The programme supports 20,000 jobs in the UK. The RAF's own fleet of Typhoons is being upgraded over the next 15 years.
