AT&T: An Underperforming Conglomerate?
內容大綱
In September 2019, Elliott Management (Elliott), a hedge fund manager and activist investor, disclosed that it had acquired a $3.2 billion position in AT&T and was seeking strategic and operational change. In a letter to the AT&T board, Elliott accused the company of becoming "a sprawling collection of businesses battling well-funded competitors, in new markets, with different regulations, and saddled with the financial repercussions of its choices." Elliott outlined the areas of concern and a set of recommendations, including divestments of non-core businesses and a cessation in acquisitions. AT&T must now decide if the recommendations are valid and what actions, if any, are warranted.
