The wireless business contributes nearly 70% of AT&T’s revenue. The company is the third-largest US wireless carrier, connecting 74 million postpaid and 17 million prepaid phone customers. Fixed-line enterprise services, which account for about 14% of revenue, include internet access, private networking, security, voice, and wholesale network capacity. Residential services, about 11% of revenue, primarily consist of in-home broadband internet access, serving 15 million customers. AT&T also has a sizable presence in Mexico, with 25 million wireless customers, but this business only accounts for 3% of revenue. The company recently sold its 70% equity stake in satellite television provider DirecTV to its partner, private equity firm TPG.

It currently has less high-speed coverage than some peers but has a larger and wider 4G presence, including rural areas and along interstate travel routes. At the end of 2025, the company had 32 million fiber locations and over 74 million postpaid phone subscribers. Total revenues in 2025 were almost $126 billion, of which about 80% was for wireless service. The company's operations in Latin America have been solid.
