AT&T weighing multibillion-dollar fiber joint venture - Bloomberg
AT&T $AT&T Inc(T)$ is in early talks to establish a joint venture with an infrastructure partner that would invest billions of dollars in expanding its fiber-optic network, Bloomberg reports.
The carrier is working with Morgan Stanley about setting up a JV that would be valued at $10B-$15B, according to the report.
AT&T could find a partner this year, though the venture could slip into 2023, Bloomberg said.
But AT&T partnering with an infrastructure investor would be part of a trend that has seen major alternative asset managers (including KKR, Brookfield (BIP) and Blackstone (BX)) increasingly investing in areas like cellular tower holdings.
Meanwhile, while rivals Verizon (NYSE:VZ) and T-Mobile (NASDAQ:TMUS) have recently given heavy focus to fixed wireless Internet, AT&T (T) has indicated its re-focus on fiber buildouts after divesting WarnerMedia into Warner Bros. Discovery.
