What this transaction means for investors
Lumen Technologies’ stock struggled for years as investors struggled with what to make of its extensive telecom networks that appeared better suited for yesterday’s technology.
However, the communications stock has surged over the last year as it has leveraged its fiber network to help some of the largest artificial intelligence (AI) companies with data center connectivity.
Additionally, it sold its mass market fiber business to AT&T for $5.75 billion to help fund this new buildout.
One can speculate why AIGH Capital chose to close its Lumen position under these circumstances. Still, the cost of remaking the company could arguably be a reason to sell Lumen stock.
As of the third quarter of 2025, Lumen held more than $17.6 billion in long-term debt, a tremendous burden for a company with a stockholders’ deficit. The sale of the mass market fiber business should give it some relief, but Lumen’s transformation will be costly, calling into question how much this AI-driven business will help its stock going forward.
