When discussing hitting the target of 40 million fiber passings, Stankey notes, "We're going to use their [Lumen's] build engine to build faster." This is a direct validation of Lumen's infrastructure capabilities by a major competitor/partner. It implies revenue flow to Lumen and validates their asset value in the fiber ecosystem. LONG Lumen as a critical infrastructure vendor/partner. Lumen's high debt load and execution risks on their own turnaround.

Stankey confirms that after the current investment hump (hitting 40M fiber passings), "You should see capex as a percent of revenue start to tick down... to the mid-teens area." Telecom has been a capital-intensive "civil works project" for years. As Capex falls and revenue stabilizes (or grows via AI data demands), Free Cash Flow (FCF) mathematically expands. This secures the dividend and fuels the committed $45B shareholder return plan. LONG AT&T as a cash-flow inflection play. Disruption from LEO satellites (though Stankey dismisses this for enterprise/urban) or regulatory shifts.
