On 10/10/24, Verizon Communications, Oracle, and AT&T will all trade ex-dividend for their respective upcoming dividends. Verizon Communications will pay its quarterly dividend of $0.6775 on 11/1/24, Oracle will pay its quarterly dividend of $0.40 on 10/24/24, and AT&T will pay its quarterly dividend of $0.2775 on 11/1/24.

Ex-Dividend Reminder: Verizon Communications, Oracle And AT&T

I previously rated AT&T a strong buy due to their disciplined strategy, industry tailwinds, and a DCF price target of $26, indicating 46% upside. AT&T's strategic focus on core businesses, including the DirectTV sale, positions them well for the bundling trend, but recent price gains lower potential returns. I reaffirm my DCF price target of $26 but downgrade AT&T to a buy due to reduced margin of safety and potential return.

AT&T Q3 Earnings Preview: DirectTV Sale Is Great News

AT&T's return to being a telecom after the Warner spin-off was an important step, but it's not over yet. AT&T's $130B debt and competition in telecom and ISP markets limit flexibility and growth potential, despite strong market share. Dividend growth is possible with a low payout ratio and buybacks, but debt repayment and reinvestment needs constrain significant increases.
