Item 1. Business.
GENERAL
American Telephone and Telegraph Company ("AT&T" or "Company") was
incorporated in 1885 under the laws of the State of New York and has its
principal executive offices at 32 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New
York 10013-2412 (telephone number 212-387-5400).
AT&T is a major participant in two industries: the global information
movement and management industry and the financial services and leasing
industry.
In the global information movement and management industry, the
Company's services and products include: voice, data and image
telecommunications services that can be used with the telecommunications
and information products or systems of AT&T and others; telecommunications

AGREEMENT WITH MCCAW CELLULAR COMMUNICATIONS, INC.
On August 16, 1993, AT&T and McCaw Cellular Communications, Inc.
("McCaw") entered into a definitive agreement to merge McCaw and a
subsidiary of AT&T, making McCaw a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T (the
"Merger").
In the Merger, each share of McCaw's Class A and Class B common stock
will be converted into one share of AT&T common stock. However, if the
average of the last reported sales price on the New York Stock Exchange for
the 20 most recent trading days ending on the fifth day prior to the date
of the closing of the Merger (the "Closing Date Market Price") of one share
of AT&T common stock is less than $53 per share, the conversion ratio will
be adjusted upward to provide shares of AT&T common stock having an
aggregate market price of $53 for each share of McCaw common stock, subject
to a maximum of 1.111 shares of AT&T common stock. If the Closing Date
Market Price of one share of AT&T common stock is greater than $71.73 per
share, the conversion ratio will be adjusted downward to provide shares of
AT&T common stock having an aggregate market price of $71.73 for each share
of McCaw common stock, subject to a minimum of .909 of a share of AT&T
common stock.
Pursuant to a separate agreement, AT&T has granted McCaw the right, in
the event the Merger does not close, to require AT&T to purchase from McCaw
$600 million of McCaw's Class A common stock at a price of $51.25 per
share.
The Merger is subject to a number of conditions, including the receipt
of regulatory approvals, expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-
Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act (the "HSR Act"), receipt of
opinions that the Merger will be tax free and will be accounted for as a
pooling of interests, and McCaw stockholder approval. McCaw stockholders
holding a majority of the voting power of the McCaw common stock, including
members of the McCaw family and British Telecommunications plc, have agreed
to vote in favor of the Merger.
Regulatory Approvals
HSR Act and Antitrust. AT&T and McCaw must observe the notification
and waiting period requirements of the HSR Act before the Merger may be
consummated. The HSR Act provides for an initial 30-calendar day waiting
period following the filing with the Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC")
and the Antitrust Division of the U. S. Department of Justice (the
"Antitrust Division") of certain Notification and Report Forms by the
parties to the Merger and certain other parties. The HSR Act further
provides that if, within the initial 30-calendar-day waiting period, the
FTC or the Antitrust Division issues a request for additional information
or documents, the waiting period will be extended until 11:59 p.m. on the
twentieth day after the date of substantial compliance by the filing
parties with such request.
On September 22, 1993, AT&T and McCaw each received an extensive
request from the Antitrust Division for additional information and
documents with respect to the Merger and the telecommunications industry.
Accordingly, the waiting period under the HSR Act has been extended and
will not expire until the twentieth calendar day after AT&T and McCaw have
each substantially complied with such request for additional information
and documents. Each of AT&T and McCaw is responding to the request as
rapidly as practicable but cannot predict when substantial compliance will
be achieved.

On December 2, 1993, BellSouth Corporation ("BellSouth") filed a
motion in the case entitled United States v. Western Electric Co. Inc. et
al., Civil Action No. 82-0192, for a declaratory ruling that the Merger
would violate Section I(D) of the Modification of Final Judgment (the
"Decree"), United States v. American Tel. and Tel. Co., 552 F. Supp. 131,
266-34 (D.D.C. 1982), aff'd mem. sub. nom Maryland v. United States, 450
U.S. 1001 (1982) and cannot be consummated without a modification of the
Decree. On January 5, 1994, the U.S. Department of Justice filed a
response that supported BellSouth's contention that a waiver of the Decree
is required. On January 27, 1994, AT&T filed for a determination that a
waiver is not required under the Decree or, in the alternative, for waiver
of any relevant Decree provisions. AT&T and McCaw believe that BellSouth
is not entitled to the relief sought but that a waiver, if necessary, can
be obtained. There can be no assurance that AT&T will prevail with respect
to the BellSouth challenge or any other challenge to the Merger that may be
made on antitrust grounds.
FCC. On August 23, 1993, AT&T and Craig O. McCaw filed various
applications seeking consent of the FCC to the proposed transfer of control
of radio licenses held by McCaw to AT&T, which consent is required prior to
consummation of the Merger. The FCC has issued public notices concerning
these applications and has established a schedule, pursuant to which
(i) interested parties were permitted to petition to deny the applications
by November 1, 1993, (ii) responses to those petitions were due by
December 2, 1993 and (iii) replies to such responses were due by
January 18, 1994.
Various petitions, responses and replies have been filed and the
matter is now pending before the FCC. There can be no assurance that the
FCC will give such consent.
State Governmental Authorities. Pursuant to various applicable
statutes, AT&T and McCaw were required to file applications with nine state
regulatory commissions seeking approval and/or a statement of non-
opposition to the Merger. Such applications were filed in Alaska,
California, Hawaii, Louisiana, Maine, New York, Nevada, Ohio and West
Virginia. The commissions of all of the foregoing states, except
California, have approved the applications or issued statements of non-
opposition; the California application is still pending.
In December 1993, AT&T and McCaw entered into a settlement agreement
(the "California Settlement") with all of the original opposing parties in
California regarding the provision of cellular and interexchange services
to customers in California. However, there are no assurances that the
California commission will approve the California Settlement, or, if
approved, when such approval will be granted. There also can be no
assurance that additional challenges will not be made or that, if such a
challenge is made, AT&T and McCaw will prevail.
GLOBAL INFORMATION MOVEMENT AND MANAGEMENT
To meet the needs of its customers and the demands of the complex and
rapidly changing information movement and management industry, AT&T
maintains business units that develop, engineer, market, and maintain
telecommunications services and business units that develop, manufacture,
market, provide, install and service information movement and management
products and systems.

To better serve the needs of customers, AT&T's businesses are
clustered into functional groups as follows:
Communications Services Group
The Communications Services Group addresses the needs of large and
small businesses, the Federal government, state and local governments and
consumers for voice, data and image telecommunications services. Business
units within this group provide regular and custom long distance
communications services, including message telecommunications services
("MTS"), wide area telecommunications services ("WATS"), satellite
transponder services, AT&T EasyReach# 700 services, toll-free or 800
services, 900 services, private line services, Software Defined Network
services ("SDN"), and integrated services digital network ("ISDN")
technology based services. They also provide special long distance
services, including AT&T Calling Card services and special calling plans
and the Company's domestic and international operators. AT&T provides
communications services internationally, including transaction services,
global networks, network management and value added network services (i.e.,
services offered over communications transmission facilities that employ
computer processing applications) and sells and maintains submarine cable
systems.
AT&T provides interstate and intrastate long distance
telecommunications services throughout the continental United States and
provides, or joins in providing with other carriers, interstate
telecommunications services to and from Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the
Virgin Islands and international telecommunications services to and from
virtually all nations and territories around the world.
In the continental United States, AT&T provides long distance
telecommunications services over its own network. Virtually all switched
services are computer controlled and digitally switched and interconnected
by a packet switched signaling network. Transmission facilities consist of
approximately 2 billion circuit-miles using lightwave, satellite, wire and
coaxial cable and microwave radio technology. International
telecommunications services are provided via multiple international
transoceanic submarine cable (primarily lightwave) systems and via
international satellite and radio facilities.
AT&T is subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Communications
Commission ("FCC") with respect to interstate and international rates,
lines and services, and other matters. For many years prior to July 1,
1989, the system of regulation used by the FCC for AT&T was rate-of-return
regulation. Effective July 1, 1989, the FCC adopted a new system of
regulating AT&T known as "price caps" under which AT&T's prices, rather
than its earnings, are limited. The FCC decided in June 1993 to continue
price caps for residential services instead of reducing regulation of AT&T.

AT&T's intrastate telecommunications services are subject to
regulation in many states by public service commissions or similar state
authorities having regulatory power over intrastate rates, lines and
services and other matters. The system of regulation used in many states,
at least for some of AT&T's services, is rate-of-return regulation. In
recent years, recognizing the competitive nature of AT&T's services, many
states have adopted different systems of regulation, such as: complete
removal of rate-of-return regulation, pricing flexibility rules for some or
all of AT&T's services, price caps, and incentive regulation.
AT&T Global Information Solutions Company
AT&T Global Information Solutions Company ("AT&T GIS" formerly known
as NCR Corporation) develops, manufactures, markets, supports and services
business information systems for worldwide markets. AT&T GIS's services
and products consist of: industry-specific products, including
industry-specific workstations and processors for retail, financial,
manufacturing, and other markets; small computer systems and workstations,
including small servers, personal computers, office automation
workstations, and video display workstations; mid-range computer systems,
including workgroup servers, small, medium and large departmental servers,
and systems for interactive and batch processing; large computer systems
for on-line transaction processing, decision support, and batch processing;
imaging systems; communication processors which process information between
large computer systems and a variety of data communication devices such as
terminals; and synergistic products and services, including semiconductors,
data centers, field engineering, software services, business forms and
supplies, and education.
Multimedia Products and Services Group
The Multimedia Products and Services Group addresses the equipment
needs of large and emerging businesses, the Federal government, state and
local governments, international distributors and consumers. Business
units in this group offer products such as private branch exchanges
("PBXs") including the Definity* communications system, voice processing
systems and voice messaging systems including the AUDIX* and Conversant*
systems, electronic mail, electronic data interchanges and enhanced
facsimile services through AT&T EasyLink* services, video conferencing
systems, installations, maintenance and repair services and other business
communications systems, corded and cordless telephones, cellular
telephones, answering systems, security systems, facsimile machines,
modems, multiplexers, data transceivers, the Merlin* and Partner*
communications systems, videophone, and imaging and personal communicator
products.
The Multimedia Products and Services Group also includes AT&T Ventures
Corporation. AT&T Ventures Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T,
is an internal venture capital business. The mission of this organization
is to identify and nurture new markets for the application of
AT&T-developed technologies. AT&T Ventures Corporation creates and grows
new businesses in markets not addressed by existing business units.
On June 14, 1993, AT&T exchanged its 77% interest in UNIX System
Laboratories for approximately 3% ownership of Novell, Inc., a leading
software development company.

discrete components, power systems and printed wiring boards, which are
included in most AT&T products and systems. Certain of these components
and many other specially designed components are sold commercially to other
companies.
International
In 1993, the WorldPartners alliance was formed by AT&T, Kokusai
Denshin Denwa Company, Ltd of Japan and Singapore Telecommunications to
provide global companies with a new level of service and convenience.
WorldPartners expects to be joined by Australia's long distance company
Telstra, Unitel of Canada, Korea Telecom, and others, including European
partners.
AT&T has numerous subsidiary companies and offices throughout the
world. In 1993, AT&T announced its intention to implement an international
organizational structure, along regional lines, to complement the
functional groups described above and to promote shared accountability
between regional units and those groups. Three regional units,
representing all AT&T businesses, are being formed: Latin America, with
headquarters in Coral Gables, Florida; Asia/Pacific, with headquarters in
Hong Kong; and Europe/Middle East/Africa, with headquarters in Brussels.

AT&T Bell Laboratories
AT&T Bell Laboratories provides support to all business units. It
designs and develops new products, systems, software and services, and
carries out a broad program of fundamental research, to provide the
technology base for AT&T's future.
AT&T Bell Laboratories has made significant contributions to
information science and technology since its founding in 1925. These
contributions include the invention of the transistor, the development of
the nationwide microwave radio network, and the design and development of
- 9 -
integrated circuits and many types of lasers. Areas of AT&T Bell
Laboratories research and development work in recent years include
lightwave transmission, which offers greater transmission capacity than
other transmission systems; electronic switching technology, which enables
faster call processing, increased reliability and reduced network costs;
and microelectronics components, which bring the latest advantages of scale
of integration to the full range of products offered by AT&T.
Other advances achieved by AT&T Bell Laboratories include: the
development of the Karmarkar Algorithm, a mathematical optimization
technique which is being applied to the efficient layout of AT&T's long
distance telecommunications network; the development of optical amplifiers
that dramatically increase the distance messages can be transmitted
optically before they must be reamplified, and the invention of a
self-electro optic effect device ("SEED") useful for optical storage,
optical switching and optical logic, thus advancing the future of photonic
technologies; the development of polysilicon memory structures widely used
in dynamic random access memories ("DRAMS"); the development of speech
recognizers which provide for the human control of complex systems with
verbal commands; and improvements to AT&T's ACCUNET* T1.5 service (a
wideband, all-digital, customer-dedicated service that combines voice, data
and video communications) that permit customer control of reconfigurations.
AT&T Bell Laboratories also undertakes the architectural effort
required to see that AT&T products can be integrated within a framework of
national and international standards. An emphasis on use of the UNIX@
Operating System, "C" language and other software suited to open
architecture and easy connectivity facilitates this architectural effort.
AT&T Bell Laboratories has also made significant contributions to the
efficient coding of television pictures and to wireless communications
technology.
In order to increase focus on customers and to create more nimble
organizations, much of the AT&T Bell Laboratories systems engineering and
development resource has been more formally aligned with business units.
The newly aligned organizations remain AT&T Bell Laboratories, but they
receive day-to-day guidance from the business units they support.
Competition and Regulation
In the global information movement and management industry, AT&T
serves markets that are highly competitive and subject to rapid changes in
technology and customer needs. Regulatory and court decisions, as well as
new technology, have expanded the types of available information movement
and management services and products and increased the number of
competitors offering such services and products. Many of AT&T's
competitors are large companies which have substantial capital,
technological and marketing resources.
The FCC has ruled that most business and residential customers must
select a preferred long distance carrier. In the course of the conversion
to "equal access" by a telephone company (equal access permits a customer
to use the service of any available long distance carrier, without the need
to dial a special access code), customers that fail to select a carrier
____________

- 10 -
will have one selected for them, based on the percentage distribution of
customers having made selections. During 1989, as a result of Federal
court orders, most owners of premises on which telephone company owned
public telephones are located selected a long distance carrier. Premises
owners who did not select a long distance carrier had a carrier selected
for them through an allocation process similar to that used for business
and residential customers.
The FCC's "price caps" system of regulation, which applies to AT&T's
residential and small business outbound services, and all inbound 800
services, is designed to maximize the incentive for AT&T to increase
productivity and lower costs and increases AT&T's flexibility to respond to
market conditions. AT&T's price capped services are subject to price
ceilings, defined by indices based on AT&T's price levels at the initiation
of price cap regulation and adjusted annually to reflect changes in
inflation and certain other costs of doing business. The price ceilings
for services are also subject to a 3% annual decrease, which reflects a
2.5% productivity level that the FCC says AT&T has achieved historically
plus an additional 0.5%. AT&T may raise prices of individual services, but
must stay within the ceilings overall. Generally AT&T is prohibited from
raising or lowering the overall price of particular service categories by
more than 5% annually.
In 1991, the FCC adopted an order in its "interexchange competition"
proceeding (CC Docket No. 90-132), confirming that the interexchange market
is largely competitive. As a result, the order streamlined the regulation
of most AT&T outbound business services. These services are no longer
subject to price cap regulation; AT&T can file tariff revisions for these
services on 14 days notice; and AT&T can offer individually negotiated
contract-based rates for these services. On May 21, 1993, following the
implementation of 800 number portability, the regulation of AT&T's 800
services, with the exception of 800 Directory Assistance Service, were
streamlined and AT&T was permitted to include these services in its
individually negotiated contracts.
Three bills have been introduced into Congress that concern the
telecommunications industry, two in the House of Representatives and one in
the Senate. One of the House bills, H.R. 3626, establishes the FCC and
U. S. Department of Justice tests the Regional Bell Operating Companies
("RBOCs") must meet before they can provide long distance service. These
tests vary with the segment of the long distance market the RBOC seeks to
enter. This bill also outlines the conditions for RBOC entry into
manufacturing of telecommunications equipment.
The second House bill, H.R. 3636, would require local telephone
companies ("LECs") to provide interconnection equal access to their
exchanges. In exchange, the LECs will be permitted to provide cable
television services.
The Senate bill, S. 1822, combines many of the features of the House
bills. It includes a test which the RBOCs must meet before they would be
permitted to provide long distance service. This test requires that there
"be no substantial possibility the RBOC could use its monopoly power to
impede competition" in the market it seeks to enter. In areas where the
- 11 -
RBOC provides local service, they must also prove that they face "actual
and demonstrable competition" before they could offer long distance
service. S. 1822 would also permit the RBOCs into manufacturing
immediately, but such activities would be subject to extensive post-entry
safeguards. Finally, like H.R. 3636, S. 1822 would permit the LECs to
enter the cable television market, but only in exchange for allowing
competitors into their local service market.
FINANCIAL SERVICES AND LEASING
The Company's operations in the financial services and leasing
industry are conducted through AT&T Capital Corporation ("AT&T Capital"), a
majority owned subsidiary of AT&T, and AT&T Universal Card Services Corp.
("AT&T Universal Card Services"), a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T.
AT&T Capital
On November 19, 1992, the Company announced that AT&T Capital had
begun taking the legal and financial steps necessary to become more
financially independent of AT&T.
On August 4, 1993, an initial public offering combined with a
management stock offering took place, which totaled approximately 14
percent of AT&T Capital's common stock. As a result of the stock
offerings, approximately 86 percent of the outstanding common stock of AT&T
Capital is owned by AT&T indirectly through subsidiaries.
AT&T Capital is a full-service diversified equipment leasing and
finance company including captive programs, general and specialized leasing
throughout the United States and in Canada, Europe and Hong Kong.
AT&T Capital works side by side with AT&T and its affiliates to
provide customized financing for AT&T customers acquiring AT&T and
associated equipment. AT&T Capital also provides: financing in connection
with general equipment used by AT&T entities; the AT&T affiliate investment
recovery program; and AT&T's employee vehicle leasing program. AT&T
Capital's captive programs are partially dependent upon sales of products
by AT&T and its affiliates and the continued acceptance of these products
in the marketplace.
AT&T Capital's general and specialized financial products are
diversified. These financial products include: small and middle ticket
general equipment leasing, computer leasing and remarketing, comprehensive
fleet vehicle management and asset management.
AT&T Capital has expanded its international focus through equipment
leasing and financial services to customers in Canada, Europe, and Hong
Kong.
Competition
The leasing and finance industry is highly competitive. Participants
in the industry compete through price (including the ability to control
costs), risk management, innovation and customer service. Principal cost
factors include the cost of funds, the cost of selling to or acquiring new
end-user customers, and the cost of managing portfolios (including, for
example, billing, collection, property and sales tax, residual management,
etc.).
- 12 -
In its leasing and financing operations and programs, AT&T Capital
competes with captive or related leasing companies (such as General
Electric Capital Corporation and IBM Credit Corporation), independent
leasing companies (such as Comdisco, Inc.), certain banks engaged in
leasing, lease brokers and investment banking firms that arrange for the
financing of leased equipment, and manufacturers and vendors who lease
their own products to customers. In addition, AT&T Capital competes with
all banking and other financial institutions, manufacturers, vendors and
others who extend or arrange credit for the acquisition of equipment and,
in a sense, with the available cash resources of end-users (i.e., end-users
may use their available cash resources to purchase equipment otherwise
financeable by AT&T Capital). Many of the competitors of AT&T Capital are
large companies that have substantial capital, technological and marketing
resources; some of these competitors are significantly larger than AT&T
Capital and have access to capital at a lower cost.
The activities of AT&T Capital are partially dependent upon sales of
products by AT&T and its affiliates. AT&T is subject to substantial
competition in the broad markets in which it competes. Thus, there is no
assurance as to the volume of financing opportunities that will be
generated by sales or leases of equipment by AT&T and its affiliates.
AT&T Universal Card Services
AT&T Universal Card Services began operations in early 1990. The AT&T
Universal Card is a combined general-purpose consumer credit card and AT&T
Calling Card that at year-end had receivables in the amount of $9.2 billion
in 1993, $6.6 billion in 1992, $3.8 billion in 1991, and $1.6 billion in
1990. The AT&T Universal Card is offered directly through AT&T Universal
Financial Corp., a Utah industrial loan company which is wholly owned by
AT&T, and under an affinity relationship with Universal Bank in Columbus,
Georgia, a subsidiary of Synovus Financial Corp. AT&T Universal Card
Services provides marketing and customer support for the AT&T Universal
Card program and it purchases cardholder receivables from Universal Bank.
The consumer credit card industry is highly competitive and some
seasonality exists, with a higher number of purchases occurring during the
year-end holiday season. The Company believes that the AT&T Universal Card
program is one of the top two or three bankcard/credit card programs, based
on generally available industry information, and on the number of
cardholder accounts in the United States.
In May 1990, four major United States banks filed complaints with the
FCC alleging, among other things, that the AT&T Universal Card program
illegally discriminated against AT&T customers not holding AT&T Universal
Cards, as well as credit card issuers in that the AT&T Universal Card
program provides for a 10% discount on AT&T calling card rates. These
banks also filed petitions with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
("FDIC"), the Federal Reserve Board ("FRB"), and the Georgia Department of
Banking and Finance alleging that the AT&T Universal Card program, in its
current form, violated certain banking laws and regulations. The Georgia
Department of Banking and Finance, the FDIC and the FRB considered these
complaints and decided not to take any action in connection with the AT&T
Universal Card program. On December 21, 1993, the FCC released its
Memorandum Opinion and Order concluding that there is no merit to the
arguments of the banks that the AT&T Universal Card venture is unlawful
under the Communications Act or the Commission's Rules and relevant
decisions.
- 13 -
On October 9, 1990, VISA U.S.A. announced changes in its affinity card
regulations which would limit the operations of affinity card programs.
VISA U.S.A. further announced that it will apply these rule changes on a
prospective basis, i.e., only to affinity card programs that commenced
after October 8, 1990. However, VISA U.S.A. stated that affinity card
programs which commenced prior to October 8, 1990, including the AT&T
Universal Card program, will be reviewed in the coming months to decide if
these new rules should be applied retroactively to such programs. On or
about November 29, 1990, VISA U.S.A. established a temporary moratorium, in
effect through June 4, 1991, on eligibility for membership in the VISA
association by financial institutions owned by nonbanking companies. VISA
U.S.A. noted that its moratorium on membership in VISA by financial
institutions owned by nonbanks also applies to the acquisition of an
existing member by a nonbanking organization. Under this moratorium, any
institution which would not be eligible to join VISA directly would be
precluded from joining indirectly through an acquisition, unless the
acquisition is approved by three-quarters of the VISA U.S.A. board of
directors. VISA U.S.A. deferred consideration of these matters until its
Board meeting of February 10-11, 1992, when it set aside the moratorium,
established an increased fee structure for new members and set forth new
affinity rules for card programs that commence after February 11, 1992. In
a briefing paper provided by VISA U.S.A. to the press, it confirmed that
the new membership rules have no impact on the AT&T Universal Card program.
OPERATING REVENUE AND RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSE INFORMATION
For information about the consolidated operating revenues contributed
by the Company's major classes of products and services and about
consolidated research and development expenses, see revenue tables and
descriptions on pages 24 thru 27 and Consolidated Statements of Income on
page 31, of the Company's annual report to security holders for the year
ended December 31, 1993. Such information is incorporated herein by
reference, pursuant to General Instruction G(2).
EMPLOYEE RELATIONS
AT&T employs approximately 308,700 persons in its operations. About
35% of the employees of AT&T are represented by unions. Of those so
represented about 80% are represented by the Communications Workers of
America ("CWA"), which is affiliated with the AFL-CIO, about 19% by the
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers ("IBEW"), which is also
affiliated with the AFL-CIO, and the remainder by other unions. Labor
agreements with these unions extend through May 27, 1995.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
The operations of the Company involve the release of materials to the
environment that are subject to regulation under environmental protection
laws. The Company is involved in a number of remedial actions to clean up
hazardous wastes in accordance with the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA", or "Superfund"), the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA") and state environmental
laws. Such statutes require that certain parties fund remedial actions
regardless of fault. During 1993, as in prior years, the Company has been
making capital expenditures for environmental control facilities.
- 14 -
An estimate of the costs of remedial actions or the amounts of capital
expenditures for future periods is subject to a number of uncertainties
including the following: the developing nature of administrative
regulations being promulgated under CERCLA, RCRA and other environmental
protection laws; the availability of other responsible parties at a site;
the availability of information regarding conditions at potential sites;
uncertainty as to how the laws and regulations may be applied to such
sites; multiple choices and costs associated with diverse technologies that
may be used in corrective actions at such sites; the eventual outcome of
claims for insurance coverage; and the time periods (which may be quite
lengthy) over which eventual remediation may occur. In the opinion of the
Company's management, capital expenditures and expenses in connection with
remedial actions to comply with the present environmental protection laws
will not have a material effect upon the Company's future expenditures,
earnings or competitive position beyond that provided for at year-end.
Item 2. Properties.
The properties of AT&T consist primarily of plant and equipment used
to provide long distance telecommunications services, manufacturing plants
at which the Company's products and systems are produced and administrative
office buildings.
Telecommunications plant and equipment consists of: central office
equipment, including switching and transmission equipment; connecting lines
(cables, wires, poles, conduits, etc.); land and buildings; and
miscellaneous properties (work equipment, furniture, plant under
construction, etc.). The majority of the connecting lines are on or under
public roads, highways and streets and international and territorial
waters. The remainder are on or under private property.
AT&T operates 97 manufacturing facilities located throughout the
United States and abroad which at December 31, 1993, had a total of about
33 million square feet. Approximately 30 million square feet are in owned
facilities and the remaining 3 million square feet are in leased premises.
Some of the non-U.S. operations are operated through joint ventures with
other parties (see the discussion of international alliances and ventures
contained in Item 1. Business). AT&T also operates a number of sales
offices, service, repair and distribution centers, and other facilities,
such as research and development laboratories.
AT&T continues to manage the deployment and utilization of its assets
in order to meet its global growth objectives while at the same time,
ensuring that these assets are generating economic value added for the
shareholder. AT&T will continue to manage its asset base consistent with
globalization initiatives, marketplace forces, productivity growth and
technology change.
- 15 -
A substantial number of the administrative offices of AT&T are in
leased buildings. Substantially all of the important communications
facilities are in buildings owned by AT&T or leased from the regional
holding companies created at divestiture. Substantially all of the major
manufacturing plants and major centers are in owned buildings. Many of the
smaller facilities are in rented quarters. Most of the important buildings
are on land held in fee, but a few are on land held under long-term leases.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
In the normal course of business, AT&T is subject to proceedings,
lawsuits and other claims, including proceedings under government laws and
regulations related to environmental and other matters. Such matters are
subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with
assurance. Consequently, AT&T is unable to ascertain the ultimate
aggregate amount of monetary liability or financial impact with respect to
these matters at December 31, 1993. While these matters could affect
operating results of any one quarter when resolved in future periods, it
is management's opinion that after final disposition, any monetary
liability or financial impact to AT&T beyond that provided for at year-end
would not be material to AT&T's annual consolidated financial statements.
On July 31, 1991, the United States Environmental Protection Agency
Region III issued a complaint pursuant to Section 3008a of the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act alleging violations of various waste
management regulations at the Company's Richmond Works, Richmond, Virginia.
The complaint seeks a total of $4,184,304 in penalties. The Company is
contesting both liability and the penalties.
In addition, on July 31, 1991, the United States Environmental
Protection Agency filed a civil complaint in the U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of Illinois against the Company and nine other
parties seeking enforcement of its CERCLA Section 106 cleanup order, issued
in November 1990 for the NL Granite City Superfund site, Granite, Illinois,
past costs, civil penalties of $25,000 per day and treble damages related
to certain United States' costs. The Company is contesting liability.
On January 31, 1994, the Company pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor and
paid a fine of $175,000 in connection with environmental violations at the
Company's facilities in Reading, Pennsylvania.
The foregoing environmental proceedings are not material to the
consolidated financial statements or business of the Company and would not
be reported but for Instruction 5 C. of Item 103 of Regulation S-K, which
requires disclosure of such matters.
See also the discussion herein in Item 1. Business, for additional
information about environmental matters.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders in the fourth
quarter of the fiscal year covered by this report.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Shareowners of American Telephone and Telegraph Company:
Our report on the consolidated financial statements of American
Telephone and Telegraph Company and subsidiaries has been incorporated by
reference in this Form 10-K from page 30 of the 1993 Annual Report to the
Shareowners of American Telephone and Telegraph Company. In connection
with our audits of such financial statements, we have also audited the
related consolidated financial statement schedules listed in the index on
page 18 of this Form 10-K.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statement schedules
referred to above, when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the
information required to be included therein.
As discussed in our report referred to above and in Note 2 to the
consolidated financial statements, in 1993 the Company changed its methods
of accounting for postretirement benefits, postemployment benefits and
income taxes.
