At&T Financials
This page shows At&T (T) financial statements, including the income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, and key financial ratios. View 19 years of annual fundamentals and quarterly data, with year-over-year growth rates and compound annual growth rates (CAGR). All figures are derived from SEC filings (10-K and 10-Q reports).
AT&T's core mechanic is recurring cash generation, but network reinvestment and debt load decide how much flexibility remains.
From FY2024 to FY2025, net income nearly doubled to$22.0B while operating cash flow moved only modestly to$40.3B . Because free cash flow stayed in roughly the same range, the earnings rebound looks driven more by noncash pressure easing and margin recovery than by a fundamental change in how much cash the business extracts from each year of operations.

At&T has an operating margin of 19.2%, meaning the company retains $19 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This strong profitability earns a score of 74/100, reflecting efficient cost management and pricing power. This is up from 15.6% the prior year.
At&T's revenue grew a modest 2.7% year-over-year to $125.6B. This slow but positive growth earns a score of 36/100.
At&T has elevated debt relative to equity (D/E of 1.06), meaning the company relies heavily on borrowed funds. This high leverage results in a low score of 24/100, reflecting increased financial risk.
At&T's current ratio of 0.91 is below the typical benchmark, resulting in a score of 15/100. This tight liquidity could limit financial flexibility if cash inflows slow.

At&T passes 6 of 8 computable financial strength tests (1 of the nine could not be computed from available data). All 4 profitability signals pass (positive income, cash flow, and earnings quality), 2 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, neither operating efficiency signal passes.
For every $1 of reported earnings, At&T generates $1.84 in operating cash flow ($40.3B OCF vs $22.0B net income). This indicates profits are well-supported by actual cash generation, not accounting adjustments.
At&T earns $3.6 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($24.2B vs $6.8B). This adequate coverage means the company can meet its interest obligations, but has limited cushion if earnings fall.
