“we continue to expect $18 billion plus of free cash flows for the full year.”

In context

“further AI enablement, accelerated digitalization efforts and reductions to our legacy operations and support costs. We expect improved growth in adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter as comparisons normalize. Service revenue growth improves and as we implement further cost actions. And we continue to expect consolidated adjusted EBITDA growth in the 3% to 4% range for the full year. Free cash flow was $2.5 billion, which is at the high end of the $2 billion to $2.5 billion outlook we bought in January. Free cash flow declined by roughly $600 million compared to last year, which was driven primarily by higher capital investment of $5.1 billion as we accelerate the pace of our fiber deployment. For the second quarter, we expect free cash flow in the range of $4 billion to $4.5 billion, and we continue to expect $18 billion plus of free cash flows for the full year. Adjusted EPS of $0.57 in the first quarter was up nearly 12%, and we continue to expect full year adjusted EPS to be in the $2.25 to $2.35 range. Under our new segment reporting, over 90% of our consolidated revenue and nearly all of our adjusted EBITDA is generated by our Advanced Connectivity segment. We believe this new reporting format improves transparency into the growth we are achieving from our investments in fiber and 5G, as well as our progress at powering down our legacy copper network. Focusing first on Advanced Connectivity. Service revenues were up 3.6% compared to a year ago. Wireless service revenues grew 1.7% year-over-year which is consistent with our guidance [indiscernible] growth in the first quarter would be below the run rate we expect for the full year.
