  • The upgrade follows the company's services agreement with AT&T Inc T
  • AT&T has offered Dish with enormous optionality, Moffett stated.
  • The network service deal is a game-changer for Dish and a disastrous result for the wireless game-changer. 
  • The extended agreement gives Dish more time to build out its network and improves the likelihood of a strategic partnership and future financing.

  • Price action: DISH shares traded higher by 3.07% at $42.96 on the last check Monday.
