\n AT&T\u2019s Chief Executive Officer John Stankey continues to look to slim down the telecom and entertainment giant as the coronavirus slams its businesses.<\/p>\n

The telecom company that also owns HBO is in early talks to sell a digital advertising unit that it bought for $1.6 billion in 2018, The Wall Street Journal said, adding that the telecom is expected to fetch no more than $1.6 billion for Xandr.<\/p>\n

The news<\/a> follows reports that AT&T is also shopping its ailing pay TV business, DirecTV, which it bought in 2015 for $49 billion.<\/p>\n

The parent to Hollywood\u2019s Warner Bros. Studios declined to comment.<\/p>\n

For the last two years, AT&T, which entered the second half of 2020 with $152 million in debt, has touted Xandr as central to its plan to challenge heavyweights such as Alphabet\u2019s Google for a piece of the multibillion-dollar digital ad marketplace. AT&T had been positioning Xandr as the linchpin of its efforts to build an advanced TV advertising business as the medium moved online to streaming services.<\/p>\n

But the pandemic has squeezed AT&T\u2019s advertising and entertainment businesses, cutting into its second-quarter earnings by $830 million.<\/p>\n

With ad spend sharply down across the industry, AT&T folded Xandr into its WarnerMedia<\/a> unit in April, and more recently began reorganizing the entertainment arm and its all-important streaming service HBO Max, which it\u00a0launched on May 27.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
