DALLAS, April 26, 2016 - AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) today reported
strong revenue, adjusted operating margin, adjusted EPS and free
cash flow growth for the first quarter.
"It was a good start to the year. We had solid financial results
and executed well on our strategy to be the premier integrated
communications provider for businesses and consumers," said Randall
Stephenson, AT&T chairman and CEO. "We're seeing good momentum
with our initial integrated wireless, video and broadband offers.
And we'll expand the integrated choices for customers in the fourth
quarter when we launch our new video streaming services.

"Our consolidated revenues, adjusted earnings and free cash flow
continue to grow as margins continue to expand. And we're putting
up these numbers even as we invest in building our Mexico wireless
business. In addition, DIRECTV merger synergies are on track to
reach $1.5 billion or better by the end of the year."
Consolidated Financial Results
AT&T's consolidated revenues for the first quarter totaled
$40.5 billion, up more than 24% versus the year-earlier period
largely due to the July 24, 2015 acquisition of DIRECTV. Compared
with results for the first quarter of 2015, operating expenses were
$33.4 billion versus $27.0 billion; operating income was $7.1
billion versus $5.6 billion; and operating income margin was 17.6%
versus 17.1%. When adjusting for amortization, merger- and
integration-related costs and other expenses and a gain on spectrum
transfers, operating income was $8.1 billion versus $6.1 billion;
and operating income margin was 19.9%, up 110 basis points from a
year ago.
First-quarter net income attributable to AT&T totaled $3.8
billion, or $0.61 per diluted share, compared to $3.3 billion, or
$0.63 per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter. Adjusting for the
$0.17 of costs for merger- and integration-related expenses and
amortization, $0.02 of other costs and the $0.08 gain on spectrum
transfers, earnings per diluted share was $0.72 compared to an
adjusted $0.65 in the year-ago quarter, an increase of 10.8%.
Cash from operating activities was $7.9 billion in the first
quarter, and capital investment(1) totaled $4.7 billion. Free cash
flow - cash from operating activities minus capital expenditures -
was $3.2 billion, up 17% year over year.

and Financial and Operational Results on the AT&T Investor
Relations website.

Cautionary Language Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
Information set forth in this news release contains financial
estimates and other forward-looking statements that are subject to
risks and uncertainties, and actual results might differ
materially. A discussion of factors that may affect future results
is contained in AT&T's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. AT&T disclaims any obligation to update and revise
statements contained in this news release based on new information
or otherwise.
This news release may contain certain non-GAAP financial
measures. Reconciliations between the non-GAAP financial measures
and the GAAP financial measures are available on the company's
website at www.att.com/investor.relations.
The "quiet period" for FCC Spectrum Auction 1000 (also known as
the 600 MHz incentive auction) is now in effect. During the quiet
period, auction applicants are required to avoid discussions of
bids, bidding strategy and post-auction market structure with other
auction applicants.
EBITDA Discussion
For AT&T, EBITDA is defined as operating income before
depreciation and amortization. EBITDA service margin is calculated
as EBITDA divided by service revenues. EBITDA differs from Segment
Operating Income (Loss), as calculated in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), in that it
excludes depreciation and amortization. EBITDA does not give effect
to cash used for debt service requirements and thus does not
reflect available funds for distributions, reinvestment or other
discretionary uses. EBITDA is not presented as an alternative
measure of operating results or cash flows from operations, as
determined in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of EBITDA, as
presented, may differ from similarly titled measures reported by
other companies.
We believe these measures are relevant and useful information to
our investors as they are part of AT&T's internal management
reporting and planning processes and are important metrics that
management uses to evaluate the operating performance of its
segments. These measures are used by management as a gauge of our
success in acquiring, retaining and servicing subscribers because
we believe these measures reflect AT&T's ability to generate
and grow subscriber revenues while providing a high level of
customer service in a cost-effective manner. Management also uses
these measures as a method of comparing segment performance with
that of many of its competitors. The financial and operating
metrics which affect EBITDA include the key revenue and expense
drivers for which segment managers are responsible and upon which
we evaluate their performance.

EBITDA does not give effect to cash used for debt service
requirements and thus does not reflect available funds for
distributions, reinvestment or other discretionary uses. EBITDA
excludes other income (expense) - net, net income attributable to
noncontrolling interest and equity in net income (loss) of
affiliates, as these do not reflect the operating results of our
subscriber base and national footprint that we utilize to obtain
and service our customers. Equity in net income (loss) of
affiliates represents the proportionate share of the net income
(loss) of affiliates in which we exercise significant influence,
but do not control. Because we do not control these entities, our
management excludes these results when evaluating the performance
of our primary operations. EBITDA excludes interest expense and the
provision for income taxes. Excluding these items eliminates the
expenses associated with its capitalization and tax structures.
Finally, EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization, in order to
eliminate the impact of capital investments.
We believe EBITDA as a percentage of service revenues to be a
more relevant measure than EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue
for our Consumer Mobility segment operating margin and our
supplemental AT&T Mobility operating margin. For the periods
covered by this report, we subsidized a portion of some of our
wireless handset sales, all of which are recognized in the period
in which we sell the handset. Management views this equipment
subsidy as a cost to acquire or retain a subscriber, which is
recovered through the ongoing service revenue that is generated by
the subscriber. We also use wireless service revenues to calculate
margin to facilitate comparison, both internally and externally
with our wireless competitors, as they calculate their margins
using wireless service revenues as well.
There are material limitations to using these non-GAAP financial
measures. EBITDA and EBITDA service margin, as we have defined
them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported
by other companies. Furthermore, these performance measures do not
take into account certain significant items, including depreciation
and amortization, interest expense, tax expense and equity in net
income (loss) of affiliates, which directly affect our segment
income. Management compensates for these limitations by carefully
analyzing how its competitors present performance measures that are
similar in nature to EBITDA as we present it, and considering the
economic effect of the excluded expense items independently as well
as in connection with its analysis of net income as calculated in
accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and EBITDA service margin should be
considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, other
measures of financial performance reported in accordance with
GAAP.
Free Cash Flow Discussion
Free cash flow is defined as cash from operations minus
construction and capital expenditures. Free cash flow after
dividends is defined as cash from operations minus construction,
capital expenditures and dividends. Free cash flow yield is defined
as cash from continuing operations less construction and capital
expenditures as a percentage of market capitalization computed on
the last trading day of the quarter. Market capitalization is
computed by multiplying the end of period stock price by the end of
period shares outstanding. We believe these metrics provide useful
information to our investors because management reviews free cash
flow as an important indicator of how much cash is generated by
normal business operations, including capital expenditures, and
makes decisions based on it. Management also views it as a measure
of cash available to pay debt and return cash to shareowners.

Net Debt to EBITDA Discussion
Net Debt to EBITDA ratios are non-GAAP financial measures
frequently used by investors and credit rating agencies and
management believes these measures provide relevant and useful
information to investors and other users of our financial data. The
Net Debt to EBITDA ratio is calculated by dividing the Net Debt by
annualized EBITDA. Net Debt is calculated by subtracting cash and
cash equivalents and certificates of deposit and time deposits that
are greater than 90 days, from the sum of debt maturing within one
year and long-term debt. Annualized EBITDA is calculated by
annualizing the year-to-date EBITDA.
Adjusted EBITDA excludes costs which are non-recurring in
nature. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes net actuarial gains or losses
associated with our pension and postemployment benefit plans, which
we immediately recognize in the income statement, pursuant to our
accounting policy for the recognition of actuarial gains/losses. As
a result, the Adjusted EBITDA reflects an expected return on plan
assets rather than the actual return on plan assets, as included in
the GAAP measure of income. This measure is consistent with metrics
under our existing credit agreements.
Adjusting Items Discussion
Adjusted Operating Revenues, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted
Operating Income Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin,
Adjusted EBITDA service margin and Adjusted diluted EPS are
non-GAAP financial measures calculated by excluding from operating
revenues, operating expenses and income tax expense certain
significant items that are non-operational or non-recurring in
nature, including dispositions and merger integration and
transaction costs. Management believes that these measures provide
relevant and useful information to investors and other users of our
financial data in evaluating the effectiveness of our operations
and underlying business trends.
Capital Investment is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated by
including vendor financing arrangements for capital improvements of
the wireless network in Mexico. These favorable payment terms are
considered vendor financing arrangements and are reported as
repayments of debt instead of capital expenditures. Management
believes that Capital Investment provides relevant and useful
information to investors and other users of our financial data in
evaluating the investment in our business.
Adjusted Operating Revenues, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted
Operating Income Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin,
Adjusted EBITDA service margin, Adjusted diluted EPS and Capital
Investment should be considered in addition to, but not as a
substitute for, other measures of financial performance reported in
accordance with GAAP. Our calculations of Adjusted diluted EPS, as
presented, may differ from similarly titled measures reported by
other companies.
Entertainment Group Segment Adjusted Operating Revenues includes
the external operating revenues from DIRECTV U.S. as reported in
the DIRECTV Form 10-Q dated March 31, 2015 adjusted to (1) include
operations reported in other DIRECTV operating segments that
AT&T has chosen to manage in our Entertainment Group segment,
(2) conform DIRECTV's practice of recognizing revenue to be
received under contractual commitments on a straight line basis
over the minimum contract period to AT&T's method of limiting
the revenue recognized to the monthly amounts billed and (3) to
eliminate intercompany transactions from DIRECTV U.S. and the
Entertainment Group segment. Adjusting Entertainment Group segment
operating revenues provides for comparability between periods.

(1) 2015 Adjusted EBITDA has been restated to reflect
the change in accounting for customer set-up and installation
costs.
(2) EBITDA is defined as operating income before depreciation
and amortization.
(3) Adjustments include Operations and Support expenses
for domestic wireless integration costs.
(4) Adjustments include DIRECTV merger integration costs
and Operations and Support expenses for international
wireless integration costs.
Adjusted EBITDA and Margin are non-GAAP financial measures
calculated by excluding from operating revenues and operating
expenses certain significant items that are non-operational
or non-recurring in nature, including dispositions and
merger integration and transaction costs. Management
believes that these measures provide relevant and useful
information to investors and other users of our financial
data in evaluating the effectiveness of our operations
and underlying business trends.
Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to,
but not as a substitute for, other measures of financial
performance reported in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation
of Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may differ from similarly
titled measures reported by other companies.
*Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted
EBITDA by Operating Revenues.

(1) For AT&T, EBITDA is defined as operating income before
depreciation and amortization. EBITDA differs from Segment
Operating Income (Loss), as calculated in accordance with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP),
in that it excludes depreciation and amortization. EBITDA
does not give effect to cash used for debt service requirements
and thus does not reflect available funds for distributions,
reinvestment or other discretionary uses. EBITDA is not
presented as an alternative measure of operating results
or cash flows from operations, as determined in accordance
with GAAP. Our calculation of EBITDA, as presented, may
differ from similarly titled measures reported by other
companies.
(2) Includes operating revenues for DIRECTV, as reported
in DIRECTV's Form 10-Q for the period ended 3/31/15.
(3) Includes certain adjustments to conform to AT&T methodology
and presentation and eliminate intercompany transactions.
Revenue recognition adjustment conforms DIRECTV's practice
of recognizing revenue to be received under contractual
commitments on a straight line basis over the minimum
contract period to AT&T's method of limiting the revenue
recognized to the monthly amounts billed.

Capital Investment is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated
by including financing arrangements for capital improvements
of the wireless network in Mexico. These favorable payment
terms are considered vendor financing arrangements and
are reported as repayments of debt instead of capital
expenditures. Management believes that Capital Investment
provides relevant and useful information to investors
and other users of our financial data in evaluating the
investment in our business.
Free cash flow includes reimbursements of certain postretirement
benefits paid.
Free cash flow is defined as cash from operations minus
construction and capital expenditures. Free cash flow
after dividends is defined as cash from operations minus
construction, capital expenditures and dividends. We believe
these metrics provide useful information to our investors
because management regularly reviews free cash flow as
an important indicator of the cash generated by normal
business operations, including capital expenditures, and
makes decisions based on it. Management also views free
cash flow as a measure of cash available to pay debt and
return cash to shareowners.

Net-Debt-to-EBITDA ratios are non-GAAP financial measures
frequently used by investors and credit rating agencies.
Management believes these measures provide relevant and
useful information to investors and other users of our
financial data. Net debt is calculated by subtracting
cash and cash equivalents and certificates of deposit
and time deposits that are greater than 90 days from the
sum of debt maturing within one year and long-term debt.
The Net-Debt-to-EBITDA ratio is calculated by dividing
the Net Debt by annualized EBITDA. Annualized EBITDA is
calculated by annualizing the year-to-date EBITDA.
Our calculation of EBITDA, as presented, may differ from
similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Adjusted Operating Income and Margin are non-GAAP financial
measures calculated by excluding from operating revenues
and operating expenses significant items that are non-operational
or non-recurring in nature, including dispositions and
merger integration and transaction costs. Management believes
that these measures provide relevant and useful information
to investors and other users of our financial data in
evaluating the effectiveness of our operations and underlying
business trends.
Adjusted Operating Income and Margin should be considered
in addition to, but not as a substitute for, other measures
of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP.
Our calculation of Adjusted Operating Income and Margin,
as presented, may differ from similarly titled measures
reported by other companies.
*Adjusted Operating Income Margin is calculated by dividing
Adjusted Operating Income by Operating Revenues.
Exhibit 99.3
EBITDA DISCUSSION
For AT&T, EBITDA is defined as operating income before
depreciation and amortization. EBITDA service margin is calculated
as EBITDA divided by service revenues. EBITDA differs from Segment
Operating Income (Loss), as calculated in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), in that it
excludes depreciation and amortization. EBITDA does not give effect
to cash used for debt service requirements and thus does not
reflect available funds for distributions, reinvestment or other
discretionary uses. EBITDA is not presented as an alternative
measure of operating results or cash flows from operations, as
determined in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of EBITDA, as
presented, may differ from similarly titled measures reported by
other companies.
We believe these measures are relevant and useful information to
our investors as they are part of AT&T's internal management
reporting and planning processes and are important metrics that
management uses to evaluate the operating performance of its
segments. These measures are used by management as a gauge of our
success in acquiring, retaining and servicing subscribers because
we believe these measures reflect AT&T's ability to generate
and grow subscriber revenues while providing a high level of
customer service in a cost-effective manner. Management also uses
these measures as a method of comparing segment performance with
that of many of its competitors. The financial and operating
metrics which affect EBITDA include the key revenue and expense
drivers for which segment managers are responsible and upon which
we evaluate their performance.
EBITDA does not give effect to cash used for debt service
requirements and thus does not reflect available funds for
distributions, reinvestment or other discretionary uses. EBITDA
excludes other income (expense) - net, net income attributable to
noncontrolling interest and equity in net income (loss) of
affiliates, as these do not reflect the operating results of our
subscriber base and national footprint that we utilize to obtain
and service our customers. Equity in net income (loss) of
affiliates represents the proportionate share of the net income
(loss) of affiliates in which we exercise significant influence,
but do not control. Because we do not control these entities, our
management excludes these results when evaluating the performance
of our primary operations. EBITDA excludes interest expense and the
provision for income taxes. Excluding these items eliminates the
expenses associated with its capitalization and tax structures.
Finally, EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization, in order to
eliminate the impact of capital investments.
We believe EBITDA as a percentage of service revenues to be a
more relevant measure than EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue
for our Consumer Mobility segment operating margin and our
supplemental AT&T Mobility operating margin. For the periods
covered by this report, we subsidized a portion of some of our
wireless handset sales, all of which are recognized in the period
in which we sell the handset. Management views this equipment
subsidy as a cost to acquire or retain a subscriber, which is
recovered through the ongoing service revenue that is generated by
the subscriber. We also use wireless service revenues to calculate
margin to facilitate comparison, both internally and externally
with our wireless competitors, as they calculate their margins
using wireless service revenues as well.
There are material limitations to using these non-GAAP financial
measures. EBITDA and EBITDA service margin, as we have defined
them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported
by other companies. Furthermore, these performance measures do not
take into account certain significant items, including depreciation
and amortization, interest expense, tax expense and equity in net
income (loss) of affiliates, which directly affect our segment
income. Management compensates for these limitations by carefully
analyzing how its competitors present performance measures that are
similar in nature to EBITDA as we present it, and considering the
economic effect of the excluded expense items independently as well
as in connection with its analysis of net income as calculated in
accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and EBITDA service margin should be
considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, other
measures of financial performance reported in accordance with
GAAP.
FREE CASH FLOW DISCUSSION
Free cash flow is defined as cash from operations minus
construction and capital expenditures. Free cash flow after
dividends is defined as cash from operations minus construction,
capital expenditures and dividends. Free cash flow yield is defined
as cash from continuing operations less construction and capital
expenditures as a percentage of market capitalization computed on
the last trading day of the quarter. Market capitalization is
computed by multiplying the end of period stock price by the end of
period shares outstanding. We believe these metrics provide useful
information to our investors because management reviews free cash
flow as an important indicator of how much cash is generated by
normal business operations, including capital expenditures, and
makes decisions based on it. Management also views it as a measure
of cash available to pay debt and return cash to shareowners.
NET DEBT TO EBITDA DISCUSSION
Net Debt to EBITDA ratios are non-GAAP financial measures
frequently used by investors and credit rating agencies and
management believes these measures provide relevant and useful
information to investors and other users of our financial data. The
Net Debt to EBITDA ratio is calculated by dividing the Net Debt by
annualized EBITDA. Net Debt is calculated by subtracting cash and
cash equivalents and certificates of deposit and time deposits that
are greater than 90 days, from the sum of debt maturing within one
year and long-term debt. Annualized EBITDA is calculated by
annualizing the year-to-date EBITDA.
Adjusted EBITDA excludes costs which are non-recurring in
nature. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes net actuarial gains or losses
associated with our pension and postemployment benefit plans, which
we immediately recognize in the income statement, pursuant to our
accounting policy for the recognition of actuarial gains/losses. As
a result, the Adjusted EBITDA reflects an expected return on plan
assets rather than the actual return on plan assets, as included in
the GAAP measure of income. This measure is consistent with metrics
under our existing credit agreements.
ADJUSTING ITEMS DISCUSSION
Adjusted Operating Revenues, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted
Operating Income Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin,
Adjusted EBITDA service margin and Adjusted diluted EPS are
non-GAAP financial measures calculated by excluding from operating
revenues, operating expenses and income tax expense certain
significant items that are non-operational or non-recurring in
nature, including dispositions and merger integration and
transaction costs. Management believes that these measures provide
relevant and useful information to investors and other users of our
financial data in evaluating the effectiveness of our operations
and underlying business trends.
Capital Investment is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated by
including vendor financing arrangements for capital improvements of
the wireless network in Mexico. These favorable payment terms are
considered vendor financing arrangements and are reported as
repayments of debt instead of capital expenditures. Management
believes that Capital Investment provides relevant and useful
information to investors and other users of our financial data in
evaluating the investment in our business.
Adjusted Operating Revenues, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted
Operating Income Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin,
Adjusted EBITDA service margin, Adjusted diluted EPS and Capital
Investment should be considered in addition to, but not as a
substitute for, other measures of financial performance reported in
accordance with GAAP. Our calculations of Adjusted diluted EPS, as
presented, may differ from similarly titled measures reported by
other companies.
Entertainment Group Segment Adjusted Operating Revenues includes
the external operating revenues from DIRECTV U.S. as reported in
the DIRECTV Form 10-Q dated March 31, 2015 adjusted to (1) include
operations reported in other DIRECTV operating segments that
AT&T has chosen to manage in our Entertainment Group segment,
(2) conform DIRECTV's practice of recognizing revenue to be
received under contractual commitments on a straight line basis
over the minimum contract period to AT&T's method of limiting
the revenue recognized to the monthly amounts billed and (3) to
eliminate intercompany transactions from DIRECTV U.S. and the
Entertainment Group segment. Adjusting Entertainment Group segment
operating revenues provides for comparability between periods.
