In Q1 2026, AT&T and Verizon each posted 2.9% revenue growth but followed different strategies. AT&T focused on expanding fiber broadband, adding 584,000 advanced connectivity customers and increasing home internet revenue by 27.3%, though its capital spending of $5.1 billion pressured free cash flow. Verizon emphasized customer retention, achieving its first positive phone net adds in 13 years and raising its EPS guidance, supported by cost savings and Frontier integration. Verizon's operational momentum and dividend yield appear stronger, while AT&T offers long-term growth potential with fiber expansion but faces execution risks and higher leverage. Investors will watch AT&T's free cash flow and Verizon's cost savings delivery next.
