On August 5, T-Mobile US fell 3.09% in regular trading, trading at $171.76/share, with turnover of $150 million.
On the news front, T-Mobile US management formally notified its controlling shareholder Deutsche Telekom that it no longer supports the previously proposed $300 billion merger plan. Some non-controlling shareholders have also explicitly stated they would not support the deal, causing negotiations to reach an impasse.
Adding to the pressure, SpaceX announced its intent to compete directly with major U.S. telecom operators. During its first earnings call, SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell specifically cited revenue generated by AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile US, declaring that Starlink would actively pursue their customer base. This triggered 1-2% pre-market declines across the telecom sector.
On the fundamental side, T-Mobile reported Q2 EPS of $2.99, beating the $2.59 consensus estimate by 15.9%, though revenue of $22.8 billion slightly missed the $22.9 billion expectation. The company raised its full-year adjusted free cash flow guidance to $18.4-$18.8 billion.
