AT&T* today announced it will begin selling iPhone 3G S for $199 (16GB) and $299 (32GB) and iPhone 3G starting at $99 (8GB) to new and qualifying customers who sign up for a 2-year service commitment with voice and data plans.

AT&T reaffirmed its financial guidance for 2009 that targets wireless service OIBDA (operating income before depreciation and amortization) margins in the low 40% range. AT&T’s cost of customer acquisition for iPhone 3G S and the newly priced iPhone 3G are expected to be very similar to the costs associated with the original iPhone 3G.
AT&T customers with integrated devices like iPhone 3G and iPhone 3G S offer attractive ARPU’s (average monthly revenues per subscriber) and low churn rates. In the first quarter, AT&T’s iPhone activations totaled more than 1.6 million, more than 40 percent of them for customers who were new to the company.

AT&T Inc.

This marked AT&T's 12th consecutive quarter of double-digit growth in adjusted earnings per share.
"We delivered an excellent first quarter and a solid start to the year," said Randall Stephenson, AT&T chairman and chief executive officer. "Revenue growth continues to ramp, we have good momentum across key growth areas, major cost initiatives are on track, and our operational results reinforce the confidence we have in our outlook.
"AT&T's goal is to innovate and lead in a communications world driven by mobility and interactivity," Stephenson said. "To that end, as we deliver strong earnings and return substantial value to shareowners, we are also taking important steps to expand our networks and product sets to drive continued growth in wireless, broadband and IP-based services.
"AT&T is moving quickly to create the next generation of wireless," Stephenson said. "The future of wireless has never been more promising, and I am very pleased that through our transaction with Aloha Partners and our successful bids in the recently completed auction, we have assembled the industry's premier, high-quality wireless spectrum position. This spectrum will provide a terrific foundation for new wireless and integrated services, and it significantly advances AT&T's long-term growth potential."
