Current report

Array also holds noncontrolling interests in wireless operating companies that generate material amounts of income and cash distributions. Further, Array holds wireless spectrum that is subject to sale agreements described below, and additional wireless spectrum not subject to pending sale agreements that Array seeks to opportunistically monetize.

Subsequent Events

Current report

The following events occurred subsequent to June 30, 2025 and are not reflected in the financial results, statements, or footnotes (unless otherwise explicitly stated) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

Current report

▪On July 14, 2025, Array completed the acquisition of King Street Wireless, Inc. and Sunshine Spectrum, Inc. for a total purchase price of $17 million, of which $10 million was paid in prior periods and $7 million was paid at time of closing. Following the acquisitions, King Street Wireless, King Street Wireless, Inc., Advantage Spectrum and Sunshine Spectrum, Inc., are no longer classified as variable interest entities (VIEs). The acquisitions result in the expected realization of certain deferred tax assets, and therefore Array expects to record a reduction to valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and associated discrete income tax benefit of approximately $50 million during the three months ending September 30, 2025.

Current report

▪On July 31, 2025, Array terminated the receivables securitization agreement. In addition, the USCC Master Note Trust, a special purpose entity used to facilitate securitized borrowings using equipment installment plan receivables, was dissolved and, therefore, the entity will no longer be classified as a VIE.

Current report

▪On August 1, 2025, the sale of the wireless operations to T-Mobile closed and Array received cash proceeds of $2,629 million. Array expects a cash income tax liability on the T-Mobile transaction of between $250 million and $300 million. The transaction included a debt exchange offer whereby debt issued by Array could be exchanged for debt issued by T-Mobile, which reduced the cash portion of the purchase price. The cash portion of the purchase price was also reduced by unearned contingent consideration of $89 million as well as other purchase price adjustments outlined in the Securities Purchase Agreement. The final cash proceeds are subject to adjustment according to the terms and conditions of the Securities Purchase Agreement. Array expects to record exit and disposal costs and recognize a loss on the transaction that will be based on the carrying value of net assets sold as of the close date. As of June 30, 2025, the carrying value of the net assets sold to T-Mobile was approximately $2,400 million.

Current report

▪The debt exchange offering period concluded on August 1, 2025 and resulted in the exchange of $1,680 million of long-term debt comprised of the following Array notes: $489 million of 6.7% Senior Notes, $394 million of 6.25% Senior Notes, $402 million of 5.5% March 2070 Senior Notes and $395 million of 5.5% June 2070 Senior Notes. As a result, on August 1, 2025, after the debt exchange, Array retained $364 million of senior notes, consisting of $55 million 6.7% Senior Notes, $106 million 6.25% Senior Notes, $98 million 5.5% March 2070 Senior Notes, and $105 million 5.5% June 2070 Senior Notes. The unamortized discount and debt issuance costs related to the exchanged debt was $48 million and will be recorded as interest expense during the three months ending September 30, 2025.

Current report

▪On August 1, 2025, Array and T-Mobile entered into a Master License Agreement (MLA), pursuant to which, among other things, T-Mobile has agreed to license from Array, for a minimum of 15 years, space on a minimum of 2,015 existing or to-be-constructed towers owned by Array. The MLA also provided that T-Mobile extend the license term for approximately 600 towers owned by Array for a new 15-year term commencing on August 1, 2025. In addition, the MLA provides terms and conditions for T-Mobile, at its option, to revert certain equipment back to Array and would make Array responsible for any decommissioning, remediation, restoration, or disposal costs of such assets.

Current report

▪On August 1, 2025, the Array Board of Directors declared a special dividend per Common and Series A outstanding share of $23.00 for shareholders of record on August 11, 2025, which will be payable on August 19, 2025.

Current report

▪On August 1, 2025, certain wireless service companies in Iowa that are not consolidated into the Array financial statements but are accounted for as equity method investments sold specific wireless assets and wireless customers to T-Mobile under separate asset purchase agreements. Array expects to receive a distribution from these transactions in August 2025.

Current report

▪On August 4, 2025, Array repaid the entire outstanding borrowings under all of its term loan agreements and export credit financing agreement of $863 million. Array expects to draw $325 million from its term loan agreement in August 2025.

UScellular Mission and Strategy

Previous report

UScellular’s mission is to connect its customers to what matters most to them. This includes providing wireless communication services which enhance consumers’ lives, increase the competitiveness of local businesses, and improve the efficiency of government operations in the markets UScellular serves.

Previous report

UScellular's strategy is to attract and retain customers by providing a high-quality network, outstanding customer service, and competitive devices, plans and pricing - all provided with a local community focus. Strategic efforts include:

Previous report

▪UScellular offers economical and competitively priced wireless service plans and devices to its customers and is focused on increasing revenues from sales of related products such as device protection plans and from services such as fixed wireless home internet. In addition, UScellular is focused on expanding its solutions available to business and government customers.

Previous report

▪UScellular continues to enhance its network capabilities, including by deploying 5G technology to help address customers’ growing demand for data services and create opportunities for new services requiring high speed and reliability as well as low latency. Investments are focused on continued mid-band spectrum deployment to enhance speed and capacity needs, building on the existing 5G coverage across UScellular’s footprint.

Previous report

UScellular continues to monitor developments related to proposed increases in tariffs on imported goods and the impacts it may have on UScellular operations and financial results. An increase in future tariffs may impact the price of procured goods and services, such as devices and network equipment.

Financial Overview — UScellular

Previous report

Equipment sales revenues decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2025, due primarily to a decline in smartphone devices sold due to lower upgrades as well as a lower average price of new smartphone sales.

Previous report

Number of colocations

Previous report

Number of colocations increased for the period ended March 31, 2025 when compared to the same period last year due to an increase in new tenant and equipment change executions partially offset by terminations.

Previous report

UScellular operates a capital-intensive business. In the past, UScellular’s existing cash and investment balances, funds available under its financing agreements, and cash flows from operating and certain investing and financing activities, including sales of assets or businesses, provided sufficient liquidity and financial flexibility for UScellular to meet its day-to-day operating needs and debt service requirements, to finance the build-out and enhancement of markets and to fund wireless spectrum license acquisitions. There is no assurance that this will be the case in the future. UScellular has incurred negative free cash flow at times in past periods, and this could occur in future periods.

Previous report

UScellular has unsecured term loan agreements with maximum borrowing capacities of $800 million. The maturity dates for the agreements range from July 2026 to July 2031. As of March 31, 2025, UScellular has borrowed the full amount available under the agreements and the outstanding borrowings were $718 million.

Previous report

UScellular intends to finance its capital expenditures for 2025 using primarily Cash flows from operating activities, existing cash balances and, as required, additional debt financing from its existing agreements and/or other forms of available financing.

Previous report

Variable Interest Entities

Previous report

UScellular consolidates certain “variable interest entities” as defined under GAAP. See Note 9 — Variable Interest Entities in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to these variable interest entities. UScellular may elect to make additional capital contributions and/or advances to these variable interest entities in future periods to fund their operations.

Previous report

UScellular has not paid any cash dividends in recent periods and currently intends to retain all earnings for use in UScellular’s business. However, UScellular expects the agreement with T-Mobile combined with various wireless spectrum license transactions that were announced to deliver substantial proceeds. When the T-Mobile transaction closes, which is subject to regulatory approval, UScellular expects the UScellular Board of Directors to declare the first of potentially several, special dividends to UScellular shareholders.

Previous report

Accrued taxes increased $27 million due primarily to an increase in federal tax liability, as UScellular projects taxable income in 2025 and generally cannot use its remaining federal net operating loss carryforward to offset this liability.

Previous report

▪If the T-Mobile, Verizon and AT&T transactions are not consummated, substantial changes will be required to the manner in which UScellular’s wireless business is conducted, and we expect there will be a material adverse effect on UScellular's financial condition and results of operations.

Previous report

▪A delay or failure by UScellular to complete significant network construction and systems implementation activities as part of its plans to improve the quality, coverage, capabilities and capacity of its network, support and other systems and infrastructure as well as renew wireless spectrum licenses, could adversely affect its operations.

Previous report

▪Intense competition involving products, services, pricing, promotions and network speed and technologies could adversely affect UScellular’s revenues or increase its costs to compete.

Previous report

▪UScellular’s lack of scale and structural disadvantages relative to larger competitors that may have greater financial and other resources than UScellular has caused and could continue to cause UScellular to be unable to compete successfully, which has adversely affected and could continue to adversely affect its business, financial condition or results of operations.

Previous report

▪Changes in roaming practices or other factors could cause UScellular's roaming revenues to decline from current levels, roaming expenses to increase from current levels and/or impact UScellular's ability to service its customers in geographic areas where UScellular does not have its own network, which could have an adverse effect on UScellular's business, financial condition or results of operations.

Previous report

▪Changes in various business factors, including changes in demand, consumer preferences and perceptions, price competition, cost increases, churn from customer switching activity and other factors, could have an adverse effect on UScellular’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

Previous report

▪A failure by UScellular to obtain access to adequate radio spectrum to meet current or anticipated future needs and/or to accurately predict future needs for radio spectrum could have an adverse effect on UScellular’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

Previous report

▪Advances or changes in technology could render certain technologies used by UScellular obsolete, could put UScellular at a competitive disadvantage, could reduce UScellular’s revenues or could increase its costs of doing business.

Previous report

▪Complexities associated with deploying new technologies present substantial risk and UScellular investments in unproven technologies may not produce the benefits that UScellular expects.

Previous report

▪Difficulties involving third parties with which UScellular does business, including changes in UScellular's relationships with or financial or operational difficulties, including supply chain disruptions, of key suppliers or independent agents and third-party national retailers who market UScellular’s services, could adversely affect UScellular's business, financial condition or results of operations.

Previous report

▪A failure by UScellular to maintain flexible and capable telecommunication networks or information technologies, or a material disruption thereof, could have an adverse effect on UScellular’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

Previous report

▪UScellular has a significant amount of indebtedness which could adversely affect its financial performance and in turn adversely affect its ability to make payments on its indebtedness, comply with terms of debt covenants and incur additional debt.

Previous report

▪UScellular receives significant regulatory support, and is also subject to numerous surcharges and fees from federal, state and local governments – the applicability and the amount of the support and fees are subject to uncertainty, including the ability to pass through certain fees to customers, and this uncertainty could have an adverse effect on UScellular’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

On August 4, 2023, TDS and UScellular announced that the Boards of Directors of both companies decided to initiate a process to explore a range of strategic alternatives for UScellular. On May 28, 2024, UScellular announced that its Board of Directors unanimously approved the execution of a Securities Purchase Agreement (Securities Purchase Agreement) by and among TDS, UScellular, T-Mobile US, Inc. (T-Mobile) and USCC Wireless Holdings, LLC, pursuant to which, among other things, UScellular agreed to sell its wireless operations and select spectrum assets to T-Mobile for a purchase price, subject to adjustments, as specified in the Securities Purchase Agreement, of $4,400 million, which is payable in a combination of cash and the assumption of up to approximately $2,000 million in debt. The purchase price includes $100 million contingent on the satisfaction of certain financial and operational targets prior to close; based on projected performance against such targets through an expected mid-year 2025 close, UScellular does not expect to receive most of this contingent consideration. The purchase price also includes $400 million allocated to certain wireless spectrum licenses held by entities in which UScellular is a non-controlling limited partner. The closing with respect to these wireless spectrum licenses is contingent upon UScellular's purchase, which is pending receipt of regulatory approval, of the remaining equity in the entities that UScellular does not currently own. The Securities Purchase Agreement also contemplates, among other things, a Short-Term Spectrum Manager Lease Agreement and Short-Term Spectrum Manager Sublease Agreements that will become effective at the closing date, which provide T-Mobile with an exclusive license to use certain UScellular spectrum assets and leases at no cost for up to one-year for the sole purpose of providing continued, uninterrupted service to customers. The sale of the wireless operations to T-Mobile is expected to close in mid-2025, subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
