SBC Communications Inc., Plan Administrator
    for the SBC Savings Plan


We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of SBC Savings Plan as of December 31, 2002 and
2001, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2002.  These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States.  Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for
benefits at December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31,
2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole.  The accompanying
supplemental schedules of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2002 and nonexempt transactions for the year then ended are
presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements but are supplementary
information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974.  These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management.  The supplemental
schedules have been subjected to auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial statements, and in our opinion, are
fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.


                                                                       /s/ ERNST & YOUNG LLP

1.   Plan Description - The Plan was established by SBC Communications Inc. (SBC or the Company) to provide a convenient way for
     ----------------
     eligible employees to save for retirement on a regular and long-term basis.  The following description of the Plan provides only
     general information.  The SBC Savings Plan (Plan) has detailed provisions covering participant eligibility, participant
     allotments from pay, participant withdrawals, participant loans, employer contributions and related vesting of contributions and
     Plan expenses.  The Plan text and prospectus include complete descriptions of these and other Plan provisions.  The Plan is
     subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

     In 2000, SBC entered into the Cingular Wireless (Cingular) joint venture agreement with BellSouth Corporation.  As a result of
     this agreement, certain SBC employees were leased to Cingular.  In December 2001 these employees became Cingular employees.
     During 2002 the Plan transferred approximately $73,141 to State Street Bank and Trust related to those former employees who
     became employees of Cingular.

     Participants can invest their contributions in one or more of the following funds in 1% increments: the SBC Shares Fund, the Bond
     Fund, the Large Cap Stock Fund, the Interest Income Fund, the Asset Allocation Fund, the Global Equity Fund, the Mid and Small
     Cap Stock Fund and the International Stock Fund.

     Company matching contributions are made solely in the form of shares of SBC's common stock held in an Employee Stock Ownership
     Plan (ESOP) which is a separate investment account of this Plan.

     The Plan prefunded the ESOP by borrowing Guaranteed Salaried Employees' ESOP Notes, the repayment of which was guaranteed by
     SBC.  These notes were paid in full during 2002.  Funds borrowed by the Plan were used to purchase shares of SBC's common stock
     held in the open market (Financed Shares), which acted as collateral for reimbursement to SBC for any payments it made under its
     guarantee of the ESOP Notes.  Dividends on Financed Shares and employer cash contributions were used by the Plan to make the
     required principal and interest payments on the ESOP Notes.  As the ESOP Notes were paid down, the Financed Shares were released
     from the collateral.  The Financed Shares were allocated to participants' accounts in the form of a company matching
     contribution.  In lieu of dividends on Financed Shares previously allocated to participants, additional Financed Shares were
     allocated to participants' accounts.

     In 1994 and 1996, the Plan entered into separate agreements with the Company to lend the Plan up to $99,000 and $24,200
     (Refinancing Notes), respectively.  The Refinancing notes were paid in full during 2002.  The interest rate on the notes at
     December 31, 2001 ranged from 5.56% to 8.44%.

     Dividends on shares in the SBC Shares Fund and the ESOP can either be reinvested in the SBC Shares Fund on a quarterly basis, or
     paid into a separate fund known as a Dividend Fund Account (DFA) for distribution at the end of the year.  Interest earned on
     dividends held in the DFA will be paid into the SBC Shares Fund.  During 2002, Plan participants elected to receive $18,300 in
     dividend distributions.  This amount is included in distributions on the statement of changes in net assets.

     Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, SBC has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time
     and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.  In the event that the Plan is terminated, subject to the
     conditions set forth by ERISA, the account balances of all participants shall be 100% vested.

2.   Accounting Policies - The values of investments are determined as follows: SBC common shares on the basis of the closing
     -------------------
     price as reported on the New York Stock Exchange; contracts with insurance companies and other financial institutions at
     principal plus reinvested interest which approximates fair value; common collective trust funds at values obtained from fund
     managers; and temporary cash investments at cost which approximates fair value.  Purchases and sales of securities are reflected
     as of the trade date.  Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date.  Interest earned on investments is recognized on
     the accrual basis.

     The accompanying financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
     States, which require management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying
     notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3.   Investments - Investments representing 5% or more of Plan net assets at either December 31, 2002 or 2001 were:

     Total                                                   $  (1,438,317)
                                                               =============

     The Interest Income Fund consists of contracts with various financial institutions and insurance companies that promise to repay
     principal plus accrued income at contract maturity, subject to the creditworthiness of the issuer.  Interest crediting rates are
     generally established when the contract is purchased and are not reset.  For the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, the
     average interest rates earned on these contracts were 5.59% and 6.41%.  At December 31, 2002, the fixed crediting interest rates
     on these contracts ranged from 2.83% to 7.65%.  At December 31, 2001, the fixed crediting interest rates on these contracts
     ranged from 3.76% to 7.65%.  No valuation reserves were recorded to adjust contract amounts as of December 31, 2002 or 2001.

     The Interest Income Fund invests in both guaranteed investment contracts (GICs) and synthetic investment contracts (SICs).  SICs
     differ from GICs in that the assets supporting the SICs are owned by the Plan.  A bank or insurance company issues a wrapper
     contract that allows participant directed transactions to be made at contract value.  Wrapper contracts are valued as the
     difference between the fair value of the supporting assets and the contract value.  The assets supporting the GICs and SICs
     generally consist of high quality fixed income securities with a fair value of $1,169,543 and $925,853 at December 31, 2002 and
     2001.

     The Plan provides for investments in various investment securities, which in general, are exposed to various risks, such as
     interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility risks.  Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment
     securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that
     such change could materially affect the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits and participant
     account balances.

4.   Nonparticipant-Directed Investments - Information about the net assets and the significant components of the changes in net

     based on discounted future cash flows using current interest rates.

6.   Tax Status - The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated November 4, 1996, stating
     ----------
     that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and, therefore, the related trust is exempt
     from taxation.  Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the IRC to maintain its qualification.  The
     plan sponsor has indicated that it will take the necessary steps, if any, to maintain the Plan's qualified status.

     On February 28, 2002, the Plan filed for, but has not yet received, a new tax determination letter from the IRS to reflect
     legally required changes and other changes made to the Plan since the previous determination letter was issued.
