Despite these challenges, Lumen Technologies continues to focus on growth areas such as IP services and its Quantum Fiber buildout, which saw an increase in fiber customers. The company's Mass Markets segment experienced a 9% decrease in revenue, with Fiber Broadband revenue increasing by 12% due to the Quantum Fiber buildout, while Other Broadband and Voice and Other revenues declined. Lumen Technologies is also navigating macroeconomic pressures, including inflation and supply constraints, which have impacted financial results and delayed network expansion plans. The company's future plans include a projected $2.7 billion to $2.9 billion in capital expenditures for 2024, with a focus on enhancing network efficiencies, developing new services, and expanding its fiber network.
