T-Mobile<\/a> added fewer wireless subscribers in the fourth quarter than analysts had expected, as rivals extended \u2060aggressive deals and offers to lure customers.<\/p>\n

During the October-December period, telecom operators typically ramp \u200bup promotions \u200baround Black Friday \u200band Cyber Monday, offering steep discounts on devices and plans to capitalize on holiday shopping.<\/p>\n

Verizon<\/a>, under its new CEO who has \u2060been \u200cworking on the company’s turnaround, added its \u2060highest quarterly wireless subscribers in six years during the fourth quarter, thanks to deals such as four phone lines for $100 per month.<\/p>\n

“There was heightened \u200cdevice-centric competitiveness from one of our principal competitors, who was trying to get some headline post-paid phone growth,” \u200bT-Mobile finance chief Peter Osvaldik told Reuters.<\/p>\n

T-Mobile said on Wednesday it added 962,000 monthly bill-paying phone customers in the quarter, the highest among the big three U.S. wireless carriers. But the number fell short of the 981,330 additions expected \u200cby analysts polled by FactSet.<\/p>\n

The churn rate, or the \u200cpercentage of customers who discontinue service, stood at 1.02% for T-Mobile’s postpaid services, compared with 0.92% a year earlier.<\/p>\n

Total revenue came in \u2060at $24.33 billion, compared with estimates of $24.11 billion, according to data \u2060compiled by LSEG.<\/p>\n

This was helped by more \u2060customers opting for T-Mobile’s premium plans that bundled subscriptions for Netflix<\/a> and Hulu.<\/p>\n

“We continue to see \u200bnew customer accounts… taking \u200cour premium plans at 60% take rates,” Osvaldik said.<\/p>\n

T-Mobile projected annual adjusted free cash flow between $18 billion and $18.70 billion, below analysts’ average expectation of $18.90 billion, according to Visible Alpha.<\/p>\n

The cash flow guidance \u200bwas likely impacted by higher integration \u200ccosts related to the company’s merger with UScellular. \u200b<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A pedestrian walks by a T-Mobile store on Jan. 14, 2025 in New York City.
