en.Wedoany.com Reported - Kinetic announced that its fiber network has surpassed 2 million locations across its 18-state service area, a milestone reached in the Lexington, Kentucky metropolitan area. This progress reflects the aggressive fiber broadband expansion executed since Kinetic became part of Uniti, along with deep investment in rural and suburban fiber infrastructure—areas where demand for high-speed internet services continues to grow and opportunities exist to capture market share from traditional providers.
Kinetic's first-quarter results show approximately 1.94 million locations covered, with over 50% of its customer base and revenue coming from fiber. Over the past 12 months, the company launched a new bundle with YouTube TV, was named "Telecommunications Company of the Year 2026," recognized by CNET as "Best Rural Fiber Internet Provider," initiated a partnership with eero to introduce Wi-Fi 7, launched the Kinetic Promise™ service, and secured a total of $184 million in BEAD grants for network construction in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, New Mexico, North Carolina, and Texas. Additionally, the company hosted hundreds of free computer skills courses for thousands of people and collaborated with 13 organizations on a nationwide donation campaign.
Kinetic is executing a multi-year, multi-billion-dollar mission to bring ultra-fast multi-gigabit fiber internet to more underserved or unserved rural and suburban communities across the United States.
Bobby Walters, Senior Vice President of Construction at Kinetic, stated that this is the result of disciplined execution by the internal engineering and construction teams, who are building fiber at scale with a focus on quality in the heartland of America, while strengthening nationwide external partnerships to accelerate the vision. He noted that every newly covered location expands the reach of the 100% fiber network, enabling more homes and businesses to access fast, reliable broadband, and expressed pride in his company's ability to invest its own funds in critical areas.
Stacie Vongvanith, Executive Vice President and Chief Customer Officer at Kinetic, said that covering 2 million homes is an exciting milestone because it means more families and communities can experience the change brought by better connectivity. The company's ongoing focus is on delivering the best experience, from reliable internet service to responsive and professional support, aiming to help customers stay connected to what matters most with Kinetic.
