The company remained in Sprint hands until 2006 when its local telephone operations were spun off as Embarq. In 2009, Embarq was acquired by CenturyTel, becoming CenturyLink in 2010.[2]
Proposed sale
On August 3, 2021, Lumen announced its sale of its local telephone assets in 20 states to Apollo Global Management, including Virginia. [3]
