Movement Alert|AT&T Falls 3.23% in Regular Trading, Downgraded by Oppenheimer Amid Satellite Broadband Competition Concerns

Market Focus06-05 00:35

On June 5, AT&T fell 3.23% in regular trading, trading at $22.78/share, with trading volume of $663 million.

On the news front, Oppenheimer downgraded AT&T from Outperform to Perform, simultaneously withdrawing its prior $32 price target. The downgrade centers on growing risks from low-earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations eroding the company's legacy fixed-line broadband and mobile subscriber growth. Analyst Holan highlighted that the market broadly underestimates user migration risk posed by LEO satellite networks.

Additionally, AT&T's Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) deployment significantly lags peers T-Mobile and Verizon, both of which leverage superior cost structures to capture market share, pressuring AT&T's average revenue per user. The investment bank further anticipates AT&T will need substantial capital expenditure in the upcoming AWS-3 spectrum auction to close infrastructure gaps. AT&T has responded by launching bundled fixed-mobile packages starting at $35/month to retain subscribers amid intensifying competitive headwinds.
