Third-quarter 2012 net income attributable to AT&T totaled $3.6 billion, or $0.63 per diluted share, consistent with $3.6 billion, or $0.61 per diluted share, in the year-earlier quarter. When adjusted for Advertising Solutions, earnings per share was $0.62 compared to $0.59 in the year-ago quarter.

While AT&T didn’t break out iPhone sales numbers by the type of Apple smartphone, the company said that its overall postpaid sales numbers were impacted by “inventory constraints” for the iPhone 5.
