AT&T raises its annual adjusted profit forecast after reporting third-quarter revenue and profit that beat analysts’ expectations. The company links the improvement to strong demand for its bundled phone and internet plans, positioning the bundles as a key driver of continued growth.
Outlets largely agree on the core story: better-than-expected quarterly performance followed by higher full-year guidance. Bloomberg sources emphasize the company beating profit expectations and attribute momentum to growth in phone and internet services. The Globe and Mail highlights the year-over-year revenue gain in the third quarter and ties the raised forecast to bundle demand, reflecting a business-focused framing. Channel NewsAsia carries the same topic but provides no additional summary detail beyond the headline theme.
