Despite the threat of the small but growing cord-cutting, AT&T added video subscribers to the U-verse pile in the fourth quarter of 2014.
AT&T gained subs at a slower rate than it did a year earlier, but those numbers were offset a bit by AT&T’s sale of its Connecticut wireline operations to Frontier Communications.
AT&,T, which is in the process of merging with DirecTV, said it tacked on 73,000 U-verse TV subs, extending that total to nearly 6 million (AT&T had about 197,000 U-verse subs in Connecticut). With the Frontier deal factored in, TV additions were down from an increase of 194,000 U-verse TV subs in the year-ago quarter.
AT&T posted a net gain of 405,000 U-verse high-speed Internet subs, versus 630,000 adds in the year-ago period. AT&T ended 2014 with 12.2 million U-verse broadband customers (the Connecticut properties had about 298,000 U-verse high-speed Internet customers).
