BELLEVUE, Wash. – February 14, 2017 – T-Mobile US, Inc. (NASDAQ: TMUS) reported Q4 2016 results which showed that T-Mobile continues to lead the industry in both customer and financial growth.

For the third year in a row, the Company added more than 8 million total customers and captured all of the industry’s postpaid phone growth by adding 3.3 million branded postpaid phone customers in 2016. In prepaid, the Company added more than 5 million net additions over the past 3 years, including 2.5 million in 2016. T-Mobile also completed its third year of growing service revenues, recording 12% growth in 2016 when all of its peers showed declines. This consistent outperformance continues to distinguish T-Mobile from the pack in wireless and the outlook for 2017 shows that the Company plans to continue with strong growth in customers and financial metrics.

“These results are proof that doing right by customers is also good for shareholders. Not only are customers flocking to T-Mobile, but we’re also producing rock-solid financial results including 11% growth in service revenues, 23% in total revenues, 31% in net income and 12% in Adjusted EBITDA year-over-year in Q4,” said John Legere, President and CEO of T-Mobile. “The competition just doesn’t get that customers want to come first! That’s three years in a row that we’ve added more than 8 million customers and taken all of the postpaid phone growth in the industry. The Un-carrier revolution continues in 2017!”

Industry-Leading Customer Growth

T-Mobile’s Un-carrier strategy has upended the wireless industry and is built around listening to customers and finding solutions for their pain points. This has resulted in a series of consumer-friendly moves that changed the rules of wireless and forced the competition to change along with it. So far, T-Mobile has launched 13 Un-carrier moves in just four years including the elimination of service contracts, ending overages, enabling upgrades anytime, free international data roaming, unlimited music and video streaming, and offering all unlimited plans with taxes and fees included. The Un-carrier’s momentum has become a consumer revolution that sets T-Mobile far apart from the competition… with results to match.

This was the 15th consecutive quarter in which T-Mobile generated more than 1 million total net customer additions.

Fastest and Fastest Growing 4G LTE Network

T-Mobile currently provides 4G LTE coverage to 314 million people, and is targeting to provide 320 million people with 4G LTE coverage by year-end 2017. The Company continues to increase the depth, breadth and functionality of its LTE network by adding new spectrum to increase coverage, and re-farming existing spectrum and implementing new technology to augment capacity. Collectively, these network advancements help provide even further improved network performance and reliability for T-Mobile’s customers.

At the end of Q4 2016, T-Mobile owned or had agreements to own an average of 86 MHz of spectrum across the top 25 markets in the U.S. In Q4 2016, T-Mobile closed on the previously announced Chicago 700 MHz A-Block transaction, and in Q1 2017 the Company closed on the previously announced Eastern Montana 700 MHz A-Block transaction, bringing its total low-band spectrum holdings to 272 million POPs. T-Mobile has deployed its 700 MHz A-Block spectrum in over 500 market areas covering more than 252 million people under the name “Extended Range LTE” to enhance coverage and in-building performance for its customers.

T-Mobile continues to expand its capacity through the re-farming of existing spectrum and implementation of new technologies to support current and future customer growth. At the end of Q4 2016, approximately 70% of spectrum was being used for 4G LTE compared to 52% at the end of Q4 2015. The Company expects to continue to re-farm spectrum currently committed to 2G and 3G technologies. Re-farmed spectrum enables T-Mobile to continue expanding Wideband LTE, which currently covers 232 million people. During Q4 and throughout 2016, the Company has deployed and expanded new technologies like VoLTE, Carrier Aggregation, and 4×4 MIMO that have delivered material capacity benefits to both customers and the T-Mobile network.

All of these improvements have enabled T-Mobile’s 4G LTE network to become the fastest in the nation based on both download and upload speeds from millions of user-generated tests. This is the twelfth consecutive quarter that the Company has held that title.

2017 Outlook

T-Mobile’s 2017 guidance shows that the Company plans to continue with strong growth in customers, Adjusted EBITDA, net cash provided by operating activities and free cash flow. In 2017, T-Mobile expects to add between 2.4 and 3.4 million branded postpaid net additions. While Net income is not available on a forward looking basis, the Company is targeting between $10.4 and $10.8 billion in Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes spectrum gains and includes leasing revenues of $0.8 to $0.9 billion (the impact from Data Stash is expected to be immaterial). Cash capital expenditures guidance is $4.8 to $5.1 billion, excluding capitalized interest. Net cash provided by operating activities three-year CAGR is expected to be between 15% and 18%. Free Cash Flow three-year CAGR is expected to be between 45% and 48%.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Financial Measures

(Unaudited)

This Press Release includes non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information provided in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations for the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided below. T-Mobile is not able to forecast net income on a forward looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting certain items that affect GAAP net income including, but not limited to, income tax expense, stock based compensation expense, interest expense and interest income. The Company is making an accounting change in 2017 to include imputed interest associated with EIP receivables in Other revenues which will be included in Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled to net income (loss) as follows:

Stock-based compensation includes payroll tax impacts and may not agree to stock based compensation expense in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Other, net may not agree to the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income primarily due to certain non-routine operating activities, such as other special items that would not be expected to reoccur, and are therefore excluded in Adjusted EBITDA.



Adjusted EBITDA – Earnings before interest expense, net of interest income, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, non-cash stock-based compensation and certain expenses not reflective of T-Mobile’s ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by service revenues. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure utilized by T-Mobile’s management to monitor the financial performance of our operations. T-Mobile uses Adjusted EBITDA internally as a metric to evaluate and compensate its personnel and management for their performance, and as a benchmark to evaluate T-Mobile’s operating performance in comparison to its competitors. Management believes analysts and investors use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate overall operating performance and facilitate comparisons with other wireless communications companies because it is indicative of T-Mobile’s ongoing operating performance and trends by excluding the impact of interest expense from financing, non-cash depreciation and amortization from capital investments, non-cash stock-based compensation, network decommissioning costs as they are not indicative of T-Mobile’s ongoing operating performance and certain other nonrecurring expenses. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for income from operations, net income or any other measure of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP.

T-Mobile US, Inc.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Financial Measures (continued)

(Unaudited)

Net debt (excluding Tower Obligations) to last twelve months Adjusted EBITDA ratio is calculated as follows:

Long-term debt as of March 31, 2015 through December 31, 2015 has been restated for the adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” in Q1 2016. The impact to the Net Debt (excluding Tower Obligations) to Last Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA Ratio was not significant.



Net debt – Short-term debt, long-term debt to affiliates, and long-term debt (excluding tower obligations), less cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments.

Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are calculated as follows:

Free Cash Flow – Net cash provided by operating activities less cash capital expenditures for property and equipment. Free Cash Flow is utilized by T-Mobile’s management, investors, and analysts to evaluate cash available to pay debt and provide further investment in the business.





Adjusted Free Cash Flow – Free Cash Flow excluding decommissioning payments related to the shutdown of the CDMA portion of the MetroPCS network.

Free cash flow three-year CAGR is calculated as follows:

T-Mobile US, Inc.

Reconciliation of Operating Measures to Branded Postpaid Service Revenues

(Unaudited)

The following tables illustrate the calculation of our operating measures ARPU and ABPU and reconcile these measures to the related service revenues:

Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) – Average monthly service revenues earned from customers. Service revenues for the specified period divided by the average customers during the period, further divided by the number of months in the period.







Branded postpaid phone ARPU excludes mobile broadband customers and related revenues.







Average Billings per User (ABPU) – Average monthly branded postpaid service revenues earned from customers plus monthly EIP billings and lease revenues divided by the average branded postpaid customers during the period, further divided by the number of months in the period. T-Mobile believes branded postpaid ABPU is indicative of estimated cash collections, including device financing payments, from T-Mobile’s postpaid customers each month.
