Thursday morning AT&T (T) announced that second-quarter diluted earnings totaled 68 cents per share. The results were 14 cents better than the same quarter a year ago. Taking a one-time gain of seven cents out of the equation (stemming from a stock transaction), AT&T still managed to top the consensus estimate of 57 cents per share. The company also reported that it topped 90 million connections for the first time during the quarter, driven by a record 3.2 million iPhone accounts activated (a company record). The activations weren't solely driven by the iPhone, as 1.6 million other wireless connections were added (a second-quarter record). All in all, it was a solid quarter for AT&T.
