Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of T-Mobile US, Inc. (“T-Mobile,” “we,” “our,” “us” or the “Company”) include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those for the full year. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2021.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the balances and results of operations of T-Mobile and our consolidated subsidiaries. We consolidate majority-owned subsidiaries over which we exercise control, as well as variable interest entities (“VIE”VIEs”) where we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary and VIEs which cannot be deconsolidated, such as those related to Towerour obligations (Tower obligations are included in VIEs related to the 2012 Tower Transaction. See Note 8 - Tower Obligations included in the Annual Report on Form 10-Kpay for the year ended December 31, 2016).management and operation of certain of our wireless communications tower sites. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires our management to make estimates and assumptions whichthat affect the financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates are based on historical experience, where applicable, and other assumptions which ourthat management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. These estimatesEstimates are inherently subject to judgment and actual results could differ from those estimates.
Change in Accounting Principle
Effective January 1, 2017, the imputed discount on Equipment Installment Plan (“EIP”) receivables, which is amortized over the financed installment term using the effective interest method, and was previously presented within Interest income in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, is now presented within Other revenues in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. We believe this presentation is preferable because it provides a better representation of amounts earned from our major ongoing operations and aligns with industry practice thereby enhancing comparability. We have applied this change retrospectively and presented the effect on the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, in the tables below:

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted During the Current Year
Reference Rate Reform
In May 2014,March 2020, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with CustomersAccounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 606)848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting,” (“ASU 2014-09”), and has since modified the standard with several ASUs.ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope” (together, the “reference rate reform standard”). The reference rate reform standard provides temporary optional expedients and allows for certain exceptions to applying existing GAAP for contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued as a result of reference rate reform. The reference rate reform standard is effectiveavailable for us,adoption through December 31, 2022, and we will adopt the standard, onoptional expedients for contract modifications must be elected for all arrangements within a given Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic or Industry Subtopic. As of January 1, 2018.
The standard requires entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five-step model, which includes: identification of the contract; identification of the performance obligations; determination of the transaction price; allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and recognition of revenue as the entity satisfies the performance obligations.
The guidance permits two methods of adoption, the full retrospective method applying the standard to each prior reporting period presented, or the modified retrospective method with a cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application. The standard also allows entities2022, we have elected to apply certainthe practical expedients at their discretion. We are adoptingprovided by the reference rate reform standard using the modified retrospective method with a cumulative catch up adjustmentfor all ASC Topics and will provide additional disclosures comparing resultsIndustry Subtopics related to previous GAAP.
We currently anticipate this standard will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. While we are continuing to assess all potential impacts of the standard, we currently believe the most significant potential impacts include the following items:
Whether our EIP contracts contain a significant financing component, which is similar to our current practice of imputing interest, and would similarly impact the amount of revenue recognized at the time of an EIP sale and whether oreligible contract modifications as they occur. This election did not a portion of the revenue is recognized as interest and included in other revenues, rather than equipment revenues. We currently expect to recognize the financing component in our EIP contracts, including those financing components that are not considered to be significant to the contract. We believe that this application will be consistent with our current practice of imputing interest.
As we currently expense contract acquisition costs, we believe that the requirement to defer incremental contract acquisition costs and recognize them over the term of the initial contract and anticipated renewal contracts to which the costs relate will have a significant impact to our consolidated financial statements. We plan to utilize the practical expedient permitting expensing of costs to obtain a contract when the expected amortization period is one year or less which we expect will typically result in expensing commissions paid to acquire branded prepaid service contracts. Currently, we believe that incremental contract acquisition costs of approximately $450 million to $550 million that were incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, which consists primarily of commissions paid to acquire branded postpaid service contracts, would require capitalization and amortization under the new standard. We expect that deferred contract costs will have an average amortization period of approximately 24 months, subject to being monitored and updated every period to reflect any significant change in assumptions. In addition, the deferred contract cost asset will be assessed for impairment on a periodic basis.
We expect that promotional bill credits offered to customers on equipment sales that are paid over time and are contingent on the customer maintaining a service contract will result in extended service contracts, which impacts the allocation and timing of revenue recognition between service revenue and equipment revenue.
Overall, with the exception of the aforementioned impacts, we do not expect that the new standard will result in a substantive change to the method of allocation of contract revenues between various services and equipment, nor to the timing of when revenues are recognized for most of our service contracts.
We are still in the process of evaluating these impacts, and our initial assessment may change due to changes in the terms and mix of the contractual arrangements we have with customers. New products or offerings, or changes to current offerings may yield significantly different impacts than currently expected.
We are in the process of implementing significant new revenue accounting systems, processes and internal controls over revenue recognition which will assist us in the application of the new standard.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The standard requires all lessees to report a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for most leases. The income statement recognition is similar to existing lease accounting and is based on lease classification. The standard requires lessees and lessors to classify most leases using principles similar to existing lease accounting. For lessors, the standard modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and
direct financing leases. We are currently evaluating the standard, which will require recognizing and measuring leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. We plan to adopt the standard when it becomes effective for us beginning January 1, 2019, and expect the adoption of the standard will result in the recognition of right of use assets and lease liabilities that have not previously been recorded, which will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, and the impact of applying the election to future eligible contract modifications that occur through December 31, 2022, is also not expected to be material.
We areContract Assets and Contract Liabilities Acquired in the process of implementing significant new lease accounting systems, processes and internal controls over lease recognition which will ultimately assist in the application of the new standard.a Business Combination
In June 2016,October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.” The standard amends ASC 805 such that contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination are added to the list of exceptions to the recognition and measurement principles such that they are recognized and measured in accordance with ASC 606. As of January 1, 2022, we have elected to adopt this standard, and it will be applied prospectively to all business combinations occurring after this date.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures
In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments - Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures.” The standard eliminates the accounting guidance within ASC 310-40 for troubled debt restructurings by creditors while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by
creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Additionally, for public business entities, the standard requires a financial asset (or a groupdisclosure of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented atcurrent-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the net amount expected to be collected. The measurementscope of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the reported amount.ASC 326-20. The standard will become effective for us beginning January 1, 2020,2023, and will require a cumulative-effect adjustmentshould be applied prospectively, with an option for modified retrospective application for provisions related to Accumulated deficit asrecognition and measurement of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (that is, a modified-retrospective approach).troubled debt restructurings. Early adoption is permitted for us as of January 1, 2019.at any time. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance willof the standard on our future consolidated financial statements.
Note 2 – Receivables and Related Allowance for Credit Losses
We maintain an allowance for credit losses by applying an expected credit loss model. Each period, management assesses the appropriateness of the level of allowance for credit losses by considering credit risk inherent within each portfolio segment as of period end.
We consider a receivable past due when a customer has not paid us by the contractually specified payment due date. Account balances are written off against the allowance for credit losses if collection efforts are unsuccessful and the receivable balance is deemed uncollectible (customer default), based on factors such as customer credit ratings as well as the length of time the amounts are past due.
Our portfolio of receivables is comprised of 2 portfolio segments: accounts receivable and equipment installment plan (“EIP”) receivables.
Accounts Receivable Portfolio Segment
Accounts receivable balances are predominately composed of amounts currently due from customers (e.g., for wireless services and monthly device lease payments), device insurance administrators, wholesale partners, non-consolidated affiliates, other carriers and third-party retail channels.
We estimate credit losses associated with our accounts receivable portfolio segment using an expected credit loss model, which utilizes an aging schedule methodology based on historical information and adjusted for asset-specific considerations, current economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts.
Our approach considers a number of factors, including our overall historical credit losses, net of recoveries, and payment experience, as well as current collection trends such as write-off frequency and severity. We also consider other qualitative factors such as macro-economic conditions.
We consider the need to adjust our estimate of credit losses for reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. To do so, we monitor external forecasts of changes in real U.S. gross domestic product and forecasts of consumer credit behavior for comparable credit exposures. We also periodically evaluate other economic indicators such as unemployment rates to assess their level of correlation with our historical credit loss statistics.
EIP Receivables Portfolio Segment
Based upon customer credit profiles at the time of customer origination, we classify the EIP receivables segment into 2 customer classes of “Prime” and “Subprime.” Prime customer receivables are those with lower credit risk and Subprime customer receivables are those with higher credit risk. Customers may be required to make a down payment on their equipment purchases if their assessed credit risk exceeds established underwriting thresholds. In addition, certain customers within the Subprime category may be required to pay a deposit.
To determine a customer’s credit profile and assist in determining their credit class, we use a proprietary credit scoring model that measures the credit quality of a customer using several factors, such as credit bureau information, consumer credit risk scores and service and device plan characteristics. EIP receivables had a combined weighted-average effective interest rate of 6.1% and 5.6% as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Many of our loss estimation techniques rely on delinquency-based models; therefore, delinquency is an important indicator of credit quality in the establishment of our allowance for credit losses for EIP receivables. We manage our EIP receivables portfolio segment using delinquency and customer credit class as key credit quality indicators.
The following table presents the amortized cost of our EIP receivables by delinquency status, customer credit class and year of origination as of June 30, 2022:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
We estimate credit losses on our EIP receivables segment by applying an expected credit loss model, which relies on historical loss data adjusted for current conditions to calculate default probabilities or an estimate for the frequency of customer default. Our assessment of default probabilities includes receivables delinquency status, historical loss experience, how long the receivables have been outstanding and customer credit ratings, as well as customer tenure. We multiply these estimated default probabilities by our estimated loss given default, which is the estimated amount or severity of the default loss after adjusting for estimated recoveries.
As we do for our accounts receivable portfolio segment, we consider the need to adjust our estimate of credit losses on EIP receivables for reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions through monitoring external forecasts and periodic internal statistical analyses.
Activity for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, in the allowance for credit losses and unamortized imputed discount balances for the accounts receivable and EIP receivables segments were as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Off-Balance-Sheet Credit Exposures
We do not have material, unmitigated off-balance-sheet credit exposures as of June 30, 2022. In connection with the sales of certain service and EIP accounts receivable pursuant to the sale arrangements, we have deferred purchase price assets included on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets measured at fair value that are based on a discounted cash flow model using Level 3 inputs, including customer default rates and credit worthiness, dilutions and recoveries. See Note 3 – Sales of Certain Receivables for further information.
Note 3 – Sales of Certain Receivables
We regularly enter into transactions to sell certain service accounts receivable and EIP receivables. The transactions, including our continuing involvement with the sold receivables and the respective impacts to our condensed consolidated financial statements, are described below.

At inception, we elected to measure the deferred purchase price at fair value with changes in fair value included in Selling, general and administrative expense on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The fair value of the deferred purchase price is determined based on a discounted cash inflowsflow model which uses primarily Level 3 inputs, including customer default rates. As of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, our deferred purchase price related to the sales of service receivables and EIP receivables was $704 million and $779 million, respectively.
We recognized a loss from Operating activities to Investing activitiessales of approximately $1.0 billionreceivables, including changes in fair value of the deferred purchase price, of $61 million and a gain of $12 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172022 and 2016,2021, respectively, and $2.8 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2017a loss of $108 million and 2016, in our condensed consolidated statementa gain of cash flows. The standard will also impact the presentation of cash payments for debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, resulting in a reclassification of cash outflows from Operating activities to Financing activities of $188$30 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2022 and 2021, respectively, in our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. We had no cash payments for debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs for the three months ended September 30, 2017.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Accounting for Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory.” The standard requires that the income tax impact of intra-entity salesSelling, general and transfers of property, except for inventory, be recognized when the transfer occurs. The standard will become effective for us beginning January 1, 2018, and will require any deferred taxes not yet recognized on intra-entity transfers to be recorded to retained earnings under a modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the standard, but expect that it will not have a material impactadministrative expense on our condensed consolidated financial statements.Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

At the implied fair valuedirection of goodwill by assigning the fair valuepurchasers of a reporting unit to all assetsthe sold receivables, we apply the same policies and liabilities within that unit (“procedures while servicing the Step 2 test”) from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited by the amount of goodwill in that reporting unit. The standard will become effective for us beginning January 1, 2020, and must be applied to any annual or interim goodwill impairment assessments after that date. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the standard and timing of adoption, but expect that it will not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Note 2 – Significant Transactions
Hurricane Impacts
During the third quarter of 2017, our operations in Texas, Florida and Puerto Rico experienced losses related to hurricanes. Based on our preliminary assessment, the negative impact to operating income and net income for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, from lost revenue, assets damaged or destroyed and other hurricane related costs incurred was $148 million and $90 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2017, our loss assessment is ongoing andsold receivables as we expect additional expenses to be incurred and customer activity to be impacted in the fourth quarter of 2017, primarily relatedapply to our operations in Puerto Rico.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we completed significant transactions with both third parties and affiliates related to the issuance, borrowing and redemption of debt. See Note 7 - Debt for further information.
Power Purchase Agreements
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we entered into two renewable energy purchase agreements with third parties. These agreements each consist of two components, an energy forward agreement that is net settled based on energy prices and the energy output generated by the facility and a commitment to purchase the energy credits associated with the energy output generated by the facility. See Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies for further information.

We use a proprietary credit scoring model that measuresimpact of the credit qualitysale of a customer at the time of application for mobile communicationscertain service using several factors, such as credit bureau information, consumer credit risk scoresreceivables and service plan characteristics. Based upon customer credit profiles, we classify EIP receivables into the credit categories of “Prime” and “Subprime.” Prime customer receivables are those with lower delinquency risk and Subprime customer receivables are those with higher delinquency risk. Subprime customers may be required to make a down payment on their equipment purchases. In addition, certain customers within the Subprime category are required to pay an advance deposit.
EIP receivables for which invoices have not yet been generated for the customer are classified as Unbilled. EIP receivables for which invoices have been generated but which are not past the contractual due date are classified as Billed – Current. EIP receivables for which invoices have been generated and the payment is past the contractual due date are classified as Billed – Past Due.

Note 4 – Sales of Certain Receivables
We have entered into transactions to sell certain service and EIP accounts receivables. The transactions, including our continuing involvement with the sold receivables and the respective impacts to our financial statements, are described below.
Sales of Service Receivables
Overview of the Transaction
In 2014, we entered into an arrangement to sell certain service accounts receivables on a revolving basis and in November 2016, the arrangement was amended to increase the maximum funding commitment to $950 million (the “service receivable sale arrangement”) and extend the scheduled expiration date to March 2018. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the service receivable sale arrangement provided funding of $899 million and $907 million, respectively. Sales of receivables occur daily and are settled on a monthly basis. The receivables consist of service charges currently due from customers and are short-term in nature.
In connection with the service receivable sale arrangement, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, which qualifies as a bankruptcy remote entity to sell service accounts receivables (the “Service BRE”). The Service BRE does not qualify as a VIE, and due to the significant level of control we exercise over the entity, it is consolidated. Pursuant to the arrangement, certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries transfer selected receivables to the Service BRE. The Service BRE then sells the receivables to an unaffiliated entity (the “Service VIE”), which was established to facilitate the sale of beneficial ownership interests in the receivables to certain third parties.
Variable Interest Entity
We determined that the Service VIE qualifies as a VIE as it lacks sufficient equity to finance its activities. We have a variable interest in the Service VIE, but are not the primary beneficiary as we lack the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the Service VIE’s economic performance. Those activities include committing the Service VIE to legal agreements to purchase or sell assets, selecting which receivables are purchased in the service receivable sale arrangement, determining whether the Service VIE will sell interests in the purchased service receivables to other parties, funding of the entity and servicing of receivables. We do not hold the power to direct the key decisions underlying these activities. For example, while we act as the servicer of the sold receivables, which is considered a significant activity of the Service VIE, we are acting as an agent in our capacity as the servicer and the counterparty to the service receivable sale arrangement has the ability to remove us as the servicing agent of the receivables at will with no recourse available to us. As we have determined we are not the primary beneficiary, the results of the Service VIE are not consolidated into our condensed consolidated financial statements.
The following table summarizes the carrying amounts and classification of assets, which consists primarilyfair value of the deferred purchase price and liabilities included in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets that relate to our variable interest in the Service VIE:

Sales of EIP Receivables
Overview of the Transaction
In 2015, we entered into an arrangement to sell certain EIP accounts receivablesis determined based on a revolving basis and in August 2017, the EIP sale arrangement was amended to reduce the maximum funding commitment to $1.2 billion (the “EIP sale arrangement”) and extend the scheduled expiration date to November 2018.discounted cash flow model which uses primarily Level 3 inputs, including customer default rates. As of both SeptemberJune 30, 20172022, and December 31, 2016,2021, our deferred purchase price related to the EIP sale arrangement provided fundingsales of $1.2 billion. Sales ofservice receivables and EIP receivables occur dailywas $704 million and are settled on a monthly basis. The receivables consist of customer EIP balances, which require monthly customer payments for up to 24 months.$779 million, respectively.
In connection with this EIP sale arrangement, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, which qualifies as a bankruptcy remote entity (the “EIP BRE”). Pursuant to the EIP sale arrangement, our wholly-owned subsidiary transfers selected receivables to the EIP BRE. The EIP BRE then sells the receivables to a non-consolidated and unaffiliated third-party entity for which we do not exercise any level of control, nor does the entity qualify as a VIE.
Variable Interest Entity
We determined that the EIP BRE isrecognized a VIE as its equity investment at risk lacks the obligation to absorb a certain portionloss from sales of its expected losses. We have a variable interestreceivables, including changes in the EIP BRE and determined that we are the primary beneficiary based on our ability to direct the activities which most significantly impact the EIP BRE’s economic performance. Those activities include selecting which receivables are transferred into the EIP BRE and sold in the EIP sale arrangement and funding of the EIP BRE. Additionally, our equity interest in the EIP BRE obligates us to absorb losses and gives us the right to receive benefits from the EIP BRE that could potentially be significant to the EIP BRE. Accordingly, we determined that we are the primary beneficiary, and include the balances and results of operations of the EIP BRE in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
The following table summarizes the carrying amounts and classification of assets, which consists primarilyfair value of the deferred purchase price, of $61 million and liabilities includeda gain of $12 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and a loss of $108 million and a gain of $30 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, in Selling, general and administrative expense on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets that relateStatements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

We continue to service the customers and their related receivables, including facilitating customer payment collection, in exchange for a separate legal entity with its own separate creditors who willmonthly servicing fee. As the receivables are sold on a revolving basis, the customer payment collections on sold receivables may be entitled, prior to any liquidationreinvested in new receivable sales.

The proceeds are net of the deferred purchase price, consisting of a receivable from the purchasers that entitles us to certain collections on the receivables. We recognize the collection of the deferred purchase price in Net cash provided by operating activities as it is dependent on collection of the customer receivables and is not subject to significant interest rate risk. The deferred purchase price represents a financial asset that is primarily tied to the creditworthiness of the customers and which can be settled in such a way thatAt inception, we may not recover substantially all of our recorded investment, due to default by the customers on the underlying receivables. We elected at inception, to measure the deferred purchase price at fair value with changes in fair value included in Selling, general and administrative expense inon our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The fair value of the deferred purchase price is determined based on a discounted cash flow model which uses primarily unobservableLevel 3 inputs, (Level 3 inputs), including customer default rates. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20172022, and December 31, 2016,2021, our deferred purchase price related to the sales of service receivables and EIP receivables was $671$704 million and $659$779 million, respectively.

We recognized lossesa loss from sales of receivables, of $67 million and $59 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $242 million and $157 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. These losses from sales of receivables were recognized in Selling, general and administrative expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Losses from sales of receivables include adjustments to the receivables’ fair values andincluding changes in fair value of the deferred purchase price.price, of $61 million and a gain of $12 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and a loss of $108 million and a gain of $30 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, in Selling, general and administrative expense on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income.
Continuing Involvement
Pursuant to the sale arrangements described above, we have continuing involvement with the service receivables and EIP receivables we sell as we service the receivables, and are required to repurchase certain receivables, including ineligible receivables, aged receivables and receivables where a write-off is imminent.imminent, and may be responsible for absorbing credit losses through reduced collections on our deferred purchase price assets. We continue to service the customers and their related receivables, including facilitating customer payment collection, in exchange for a monthly servicing fee. As the receivables are sold on a revolving basis, the customer payment collections on sold receivables may be reinvested in new receivable sales. While servicingAt the direction of the purchasers of the sold receivables, we apply the same policies and procedures towhile servicing the sold receivables as we apply to our owned receivables, and we continue to maintain normal relationships with our customers. Pursuant
In addition, we have continuing involvement with the sold receivables as we may be responsible for absorbing additional credit losses pursuant to the sale arrangements. Our maximum exposure to loss related to the involvement with the service receivables and EIP receivables sold under the sale arrangements was $1.2 billion as of September 30, 2017. The maximum exposure to loss, which is a required disclosure under GAAP, represents an estimated loss that would be incurred under severe, hypothetical circumstances whereby we would not receive the deferred purchase price portion of the contractual proceeds withheld by the purchasers and would also be required to repurchase the maximum amount of receivables pursuant to the sale arrangements without consideration for any recovery. As we believe the probability of these circumstances occurring is remote, the maximum exposure to loss is not an indication of our expected loss.

In the event DISH breaches the License Purchase Agreement or fails to deliver the purchase price following the satisfaction or waiver of all closing conditions, DISH is liable to pay us a fee of $72 million. Additionally, if DISH does not exercise the option to purchase the 800 MHz spectrum licenses, we have an obligation to offer the licenses for sale through an auction. If the specified minimum price of $3.6 billion is not met in the third quarterauction, we would be relieved of 2017.the obligation to sell the licenses.

We designate certain derivatives as hedging instruments in a qualifying hedge accounting relationship (cash flow hedge) to help minimize significant, unplanned fluctuations in cash flows caused by interest rate volatility. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Cash flows associated with qualifying hedge derivative instruments are presented in the same category on a recurring basis includedthe Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as the item being hedged.

Note 7 – Tower Obligations
Existing CCI Tower Lease Arrangements
In 2012, we conveyed to Crown Castle International Corp. (“CCI”) the exclusive right to manage and operate approximately 6,200 tower sites (“CCI Lease Sites”) via a master prepaid lease with site lease terms ranging from 23 to 37 years. CCI has fixed-price purchase options for the CCI Lease Sites totaling approximately $2.0 billion, exercisable annually on a per-tranche basis at the end of the lease term during the period from December 31, 2035, through December 31, 2049. If CCI exercises its purchase option for any tranche, it must purchase all the towers in the tranche. We lease back a portion of the space at certain tower sites.
Assets and liabilities associated with the operation of the tower sites were transferred to special purpose entities (“SPEs”). Assets included ground lease agreements or deeds for the land on which the towers are situated, the towers themselves and existing subleasing agreements with other mobile network operator tenants that lease space at the tower sites. Liabilities included the obligation to pay ground lease rentals, property taxes and other executory costs.
We determined the SPEs containing the CCI Lease Sites (“Lease Site SPEs”) are VIEs as they lack sufficient equity to finance their activities. We have a variable interest in the Lease Site SPEs but are not the primary beneficiary as we lack the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the Lease Site SPEs’ economic performance. These activities include managing tenants and underlying ground leases, performing repair and maintenance on the towers, the obligation to absorb expected losses and the right to receive the expected future residual returns from the purchase option to acquire the CCI Lease Sites. As we determined that we are not the primary beneficiary and do not have a controlling financial interest in the Lease Site SPEs, the Lease Site SPEs are not included in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
However, we also considered if this arrangement resulted in the sale of the CCI Lease Sites for which we would de-recognize the tower assets. By assessing whether control had transferred, we concluded that transfer of control criteria, as discussed in the revenue standard, were not met. Accordingly, we recorded this arrangement as a financing whereby we recorded debt, a financial obligation, and the CCI Lease Sites tower assets remained on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We recorded long-term financial obligations in the amount of the net proceeds received and recognize interest on the tower obligations. The tower obligations are increased by interest expense and amortized through contractual leaseback payments made by us to CCI and through net cash flows generated and retained by CCI from operation of the tower sites.
Acquired CCI Tower Lease Arrangements
Prior to the merger (the “Merger”) with Sprint Corporation (“Sprint”), Sprint entered into a lease-out and leaseback arrangement with Global Signal Inc., a third party that was subsequently acquired by CCI, that conveyed to CCI the exclusive right to manage and operate approximately 6,400 tower sites (“Master Lease Sites”) via a master prepaid lease. These agreements were assumed upon the close of the Merger, at which point the remaining term of the lease-out was approximately 17 years with no renewal options. CCI has a fixed price purchase option for all (but not less than all) of the leased or subleased sites for approximately $2.3 billion, exercisable one year prior to the expiration of the agreement and ending 120 days prior to the expiration of the agreement. We lease back a portion of the space at certain tower sites.

DebtWe considered if this arrangement resulted in the sale of the Master Lease Sites for which we would de-recognize the tower assets. By assessing whether control had transferred, we concluded that transfer of control criteria, as discussed in the revenue standard, were not met. Accordingly, we recorded this arrangement as a financing whereby we recorded debt, a financial obligation, and the Master Lease Sites tower assets remained on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As of the closing date of the Merger, we recognized Property and equipment with a fair value of $2.8 billion and tower obligations related to Affiliatesamounts owed to CCI under the leaseback of $1.1 billion. Additionally, we recognized $1.7 billion in Other long-term liabilities associated with contract terms that are unfavorable to current market rates, which include unfavorable terms associated with the fixed-price purchase option in 2037.
IssuancesWe recognize interest expense on the tower obligations. The tower obligations are increased by the interest expense and Borrowingsamortized through contractual leaseback payments made by us to CCI. The tower assets are reported in Property and equipment, net on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are depreciated to their estimated residual values over the expected useful life of the towers, which is 20 years.

On January 25, 2017, T-Mobile USA, Inc. (“T-Mobile USA”), and certain of its affiliates, as guarantors,3, 2022, we entered into an agreement to borrow $4.0 billion under a secured term loan facility (“Incremental Term Loan Facility”(the “Crown Agreement”) with DT,CCI. The Crown Agreement extends the current term of the leasebacks by up to 12 years and modifies the leaseback payments for both the Existing CCI Tower Lease Arrangement and the Acquired CCI Tower Lease Arrangement. As a result of the Crown Agreement, there was an increase in our majority stockholder, to refinance $1.98 billion of outstanding senior secured term loans under its Term Loan Credit Agreement dated November 9, 2015, with the remaining net proceeds from the transaction used to redeem callable high yield debt. The Incremental Term Loan Facility increased DT’s incremental term loan commitment provided to T-Mobile USA under that certain First Incremental Facility Amendment datedfinancing obligation as of December 29, 2016, from $660 millionthe effective date of the agreement of approximately $1.2 billion, with a corresponding decrease to $2.0 billion and provided T-Mobile USAOther long-term liabilities associated with an additional $2.0 billion incremental term loan commitment.
On January 31, 2017, the loansunfavorable contract terms. The modification resulted in a revised interest rate under the Incremental Term Loan Facility were drawn in two tranches: (i) $2.0 billion of which bearseffective interest at a rate equal to a per annum rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 2.00% and matures on November 9, 2022, and (ii) $2.0 billion of which bears interest at a rate equal to a per annum rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 2.25% and matures on January 31, 2024. In July 2017, we repriced the $2.0 billion Incremental Term Loan Facility maturing on January 31, 2024, with DT by reducing the interest rate to a per annum rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 2.00%. No issuance fees were incurred related to this debt agreementmethod for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.tower obligations: 11.6% for the Existing CCI Tower Lease Arrangement and 5.3% for the Acquired CCI Tower Lease Arrangement. There were no changes made to either of our master prepaid leases with CCI.

Contract assets primarily represent revenue recognized for equipment sales with promotional bill credits offered to customers that are paid over time and are contingent on the customer maintaining a service contract.
The change in the contract asset balance includes customer activity related to new promotions, offset by billings on existing contracts and impairment which is recognized as bad debt expense. The current portion of our contract assets of approximately $227 million and $219 million as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively, was included in Other current assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Contract liabilities are recorded when fees are collected, or we have an unconditional right to consideration (a receivable) in advance of delivery of goods or services. Changes in contract liabilities are primarily related to the activity of prepaid customers. Contract liabilities are primarily included in Deferred revenueon our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, include the following: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Remaining Performance Obligations
As of June 30, 2022, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to remaining service performance obligations for postpaid contracts with subsidized devices and promotional bill credits that result in an extended service contract is $700 million. We expect to recognize revenue as the service is provided on these postpaid contracts over an extended contract term of 24 months from the time of origination.
Information about remaining performance obligations that are part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less has been excluded from the above, which primarily consists of monthly service contracts.
Certain of our wholesale, roaming and service contracts include variable consideration based on usage and performance. This variable consideration has been excluded from the disclosure of remaining performance obligations. As of June 30, 2022, the aggregate amount of the contractual minimum consideration for wholesale, roaming and service contracts is $1.1 billion, $2.3 billion and $4.7 billion for 2022, 2023, and 2024 and beyond, respectively. These contracts have a remaining duration ranging from less than one year to eight years.
Contract Costs
The balance of deferred incremental costs to obtain contracts with customers was $1.7 billion and $1.5 billion as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively, and is included in Other assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred contract costs incurred to obtain postpaid service contracts are amortized over a period of 24 months. The amortization period is monitored to reflect any significant change in assumptions. Amortization of deferred contract costs included in Selling, general and administrative expenses on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income were $358 million and $264 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017 was primarily from higher income before income taxes. The change2022 and 2021, respectively, and $682 million and $512 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
30, 2017 was primarily fromThe deferred contract cost asset is assessed for impairment on a lower effective tax rate partially offset by higher income before income taxes. The effective tax rate was 39.3% and 38.8%periodic basis. There were no impairment losses recognized on deferred contract cost assets for the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172022 and 2016, respectively, and 25.3% and 37.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The change in the effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, was primarily due to a reduction in the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets in certain state jurisdictions that resulted in the recognition of $270 million in tax benefits in the first quarter of 2017 and the recognition of an additional $19 million in tax benefits through the third quarter of 2017. Total tax benefits related to the reduction in the valuation allowance were $289 million through September 30, 2017. The effective tax rate was further decreased by the recognition of $62 million of excess tax benefits related to share-based payments for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to $24 million for the same period in 2016.2021.
During the first quarter of 2017, due to ongoing analysis of positive and negative evidence related to the utilization of the deferred tax assets, we determined that a portion of the valuation allowance was no longer necessary. Positive evidence supporting the release of a portion of the valuation allowance included reaching a position of cumulative income over a three-year period in the state jurisdictions as well as projecting sustained earnings in those jurisdictions. Due to this positive evidence, we reduced the valuation allowance which resulted in a decrease to Deferred tax liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We will continue to monitor positive and negative evidence related to the utilization of the remaining deferred tax assets for which a valuation allowance continues to be provided. It is possible that we may release additional portions of the remaining valuation allowance within the next three months.

Note 10 – Leases
Lessee
We are a lessee for non-cancelable operating and financing leases for cell sites, switch sites, retail stores, network equipment and office facilities with contractual terms that generally extend through 2035. Additionally, we lease dark fiber through non-cancelable operating leases with contractual terms that generally extend through 2041. The majority of cell site leases have a non-cancelable term of five to 15 years with several renewal options that can extend the lease term for five to 50 years. In addition, we have financing leases for network equipment that generally have a non-cancelable lease term of three to five years. The financing leases do not have renewal options and contain a bargain purchase option at the end of the lease.
On January 3, 2022, we entered into the Crown Agreement with CCI that modified the terms of our leased towers from CCI. The Crown Agreement modifies the monthly rental payments we will pay for sites currently leased by us, extends the non-cancellable lease term for the majority of our sites through December 2033 and will allow us the flexibility to facilitate our network integration and decommissioning activities through new site builds and termination of duplicate tower locations. The initial non-cancellable term is through December 31, 2033, followed by 3 optional five-year renewals. As a result of this modification, we remeasured the associated right-of use assets and lease liabilities resulting in an increase of $5.3 billion to each on the effective date of the modification, with a corresponding gross increase to both deferred tax liabilities and assets of $1.3 billion.

Renewable Energy Purchase Agreements
In January 2017, T-Mobile USA entered into a REPA with Red Dirt Wind Project, LLC. The agreement isapproximately $4.4 billion for the 12-month period ending June 30, 2023, $5.3 billion in total for both of the 12-month periods ending June 30, 2024 and 2025, $2.5 billion in total for both of the 12-month periods ending June 30, 2026 and 2027, and $2.9 billion in total thereafter. These amounts are not reflective of our entire anticipated purchases under the related agreements but are determined based on the expected operation ofnon-cancelable quantities or termination amounts to which we are contractually obligated.
Spectrum Leases
We lease spectrum from various parties. These leases include service obligations to the lessors. Certain spectrum leases provide for minimum lease payments, additional charges, renewal options and escalation clauses. Leased spectrum agreements have varying expiration terms that generally extend through 2050. We expect that all renewal periods in our spectrum leases will be exercised by us. Certain spectrum leases also include purchase options and right-of-first refusal clauses in which we are provided the opportunity to exercise our purchase option if the lessor receives a wind energy-generating facility located in Oklahoma and will remain in effect until the twelfth anniversarypurchase offer from a third party. The purchase of the facility’s entry into commercial operation. Commercial operationleased spectrum is at our option and therefore the option price is not included in the commitments below.
Our spectrum lease and service credit commitments, including renewal periods, are approximately $330 million for the 12-month period ending June 30, 2023, $599 million in total for both of the facility is expected to occur by the end of 2017. The REPA consists of two components: (1) an energy forward agreement that is net settled based on energy prices12-month periods ending June 30, 2024 and the energy output generated by the facility and (2) a commitment to purchase the renewable energy credits (“RECs”) associated with the energy output generated by the facility. T-Mobile USA will net settle the forward agreement and acquire the RECs monthly by paying, or receiving, an aggregate net payment based on two variables (1) the facility’s energy output, which has an estimated maximum capacity of approximately 160 megawatts and (2) the difference between (a) an initial fixed price, subject to annual escalation, and (b) current local marginal energy prices during the monthly settlement period. We have determined that the REPA does not meet the definition of a derivative because the expected energy output2025, $615 million in total for both of the facility may not be reliably estimated (the arrangement lacks a notional amount). The REPA does not contain any unconditional purchase obligations because amounts under the agreement are not fixed12-month periods ending June 30, 2026 and determinable. Our participation2027, and $4.7 billion in the REPA did not require an upfront investment or capital commitment. We do not control the activities that most significantly impact the energy-generating facility nor do we receive specific energy output from it. No amounts were settled under the agreement during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.total thereafter.
In August 2017, T-Mobile USA entered into a REPA with Solomon Forks Wind Project, LLC. The agreement is based on the expected operation of a wind energy-generating facility located in Kansas and will remain in effect until the fifteenth anniversary of the facility’s entry into commercial operation. Commercial operation of the facility is expected to occur by the end of 2018. The REPA consists of two components: (1) an energy forward agreement that is net settled based on energy prices and the energy output generated by the facility and (2) a commitment to purchase the environmental attributes (“EACs”) associated with the energy output generated by the facility. T-Mobile USA will net settle the forward agreement and acquire the EACs monthly by paying, or receiving, an aggregate net payment based on two variables (1) the facility’s energy output, which has an estimated maximum capacity of approximately 160 megawatts and (2) the difference between (a) an initial fixed price, subject to annual escalation, and (b) current local marginal energy prices during the monthly settlement period. We have determined that the REPA does not meet the definition of a derivative because the expected energy output of the facility may not be reliably estimated (the arrangement lacks a notional amount). The REPA does not contain any unconditional purchase obligations because amounts under the agreement are not fixed and determinable. Our participation in the REPA did not require an upfront investment or capital commitment. We do not control the activities that most significantly impact the energy-generating facility nor do we receive specific energy output from it. No amounts were settled under the agreement during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
Contingencies and Litigation
Litigation and Regulatory Matters
We are involved in various lawsuits and disputes, claims, government agency investigations and enforcement actions, and other proceedings (“Litigation and Regulatory Matters”) that arise in the ordinary course of business, which include numerous court actions alleging that we are infringing various patents. Virtually allclaims of the patent infringement cases(most of which are broughtasserted by non-practicing entities primarily seeking monetary damages), class actions, and effectively seek only monetary damages, although they occasionally seek injunctive relief as well. Theproceedings to enforce FCC or other government agency rules and regulations. Those Litigation and Regulatory Matters described above have progressed toare at various stages, and some of them may proceed to trial, arbitration, hearing, or other adjudication that could include an awardresult in fines, penalties, or awards of monetary or injunctive relief in the coming 12 months if they are not otherwise resolved. We have established an accrual with respect to certain of these matters, where appropriate, which isappropriate. The accruals are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements, but that we dothey are not consider,considered to be, individually or in the aggregate, material. An accrual is established when we believe it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and an amount can be reasonably estimated. For other matters, where we have not determined that a loss is probable or because the amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, we have not recorded an accrual due to various factors typical in contested proceedings, including, but not limited to:to, uncertainty concerning legal theories and their resolution by courts or regulators;regulators, uncertain damage theories and demands;demands, and a less than fully developed factual record. WhileFor Litigation and Regulatory Matters that may result in a contingent gain, we recognize such gains in the condensed consolidated financial statements when the gain is realized or realizable. We recognize legal costs expected to be incurred in connection with Litigation and Regulatory Matters as they are incurred. Except as otherwise specified below, we do not expect that the ultimate resolution of these proceedings,Litigation and Regulatory Matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, but we note that an unfavorable outcome of some or all of these proceedingsthe specific matters identified below could have a material adverse impact on results of operations or cash flows for a particular period. This assessment is based on our current understanding of relevant facts and circumstances. As such, our view of these matters is subject to inherent uncertainties and may change in the future.
On February 28, 2020, we received a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture and Admonishment from the FCC, which proposed a penalty against us for allegedly violating section 222 of the Communications Act and the FCC’s regulations governing the privacy of customer information. In the first quarter of 2020, we recorded an accrual for an estimated payment amount. We maintained the accrual as of June 30, 2022, and that accrual was included in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Note 11 – Guarantor Financial Information
On April 1, 2020, in connection with the closing of the Merger, we assumed the contingencies and litigation matters of Sprint.
Those matters include a wide variety of disputes, claims, government agency investigations and supplemental indentures,enforcement actions, and other proceedings. These matters include, among other things, certain ongoing FCC and state government agency investigations into Sprint’s Lifeline program. In September 2019, Sprint notified the long-term debtFCC that it had claimed monthly subsidies for serving subscribers even though these subscribers may not have met usage requirements under Sprint's usage policy for the Lifeline program, due to affiliatesan inadvertent coding issue in the system used to identify qualifying subscriber usage that occurred in July 2017 while the system was being updated. Sprint has made a number of payments to reimburse the federal government and thirdcertain states for excess subsidy payments.
We note that pursuant to Amendment No. 2, dated as of February 20, 2020, to the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of April 29, 2018, by and among the Company, Sprint and the other parties excluding Senior Secured Term Loansnamed therein (as amended, the “Business Combination Agreement”), SoftBank agreed to indemnify us against certain specified matters and capital leases, issuedlosses, including those relating to the Lifeline matters described above. Resolution of these matters could require making additional reimbursements and paying additional fines and penalties, which we do not expect to have a significant impact on our financial results. We expect that any additional liabilities related to these indemnified matters would be indemnified and reimbursed by T-Mobile USA (“Issuer”) is fullySoftBank.
On June 1, 2021, a putative shareholder class action and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by T-Mobile (“Parent”)derivative lawsuit was filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery, Dinkevich v. Deutsche Telekom AG, et al., Case No. C.A. No. 2021-0479, against DT, SoftBank and certain of our current and former officers and directors, asserting breach of fiduciary duty claims relating to the Issuer’s 100% owned subsidiaries (“Guarantor Subsidiaries”).repricing amendment to the Business Combination Agreement, and to SoftBank’s monetization of its T-Mobile shares. We are also named as a nominal defendant in the case. We are unable to predict the potential outcome of these claims. We intend to vigorously defend this lawsuit.
In January 2017, T-Mobile USA,October 2020, we notified Mobile Virtual Network Operators (“MVNOs”) using the legacy Sprint CDMA network that we planned to sunset that network on December 31, 2021. In response to that notice, DISH, which had Boost Mobile customers who used the legacy Sprint CDMA network, made several efforts to prevent us from sunsetting the CDMA network until mid-2023, including pursuing a Petition for Modification and certainrelated proceedings pursuant to the California Public Utilities Commission’s (the “CPUC”) April 2020 decision concerning the Merger. As of its affiliates, as guarantors, borrowed $4.0 billion underJune 30, 2022, the Incremental Term Loan Facilityorderly decommissioning of the legacy Sprint CDMA network has been completed. With the exception of the CPUC proceedings, all other proceedings described above have been successfully resolved.
On August 12, 2021, we became aware of a potential cybersecurity issue involving unauthorized access to refinance $1.98 billion of outstanding secured term loans under its Term Loan Credit Agreement dated November 9, 2015,T-Mobile’s systems (the “August 2021 cyberattack”). We immediately began an investigation and engaged cybersecurity experts to assist with the remaining net proceeds from the transaction intended to be used to redeem callable high yield debt.
In March 2017, T-Mobile USA and certain of its affiliates, as guarantors, (i) issued $500 million in aggregate principal amount of public 4.000% Senior Notes due 2022, (ii) issued $500 million in aggregate principal amount of public 5.125% Senior Notes due 2025 and (iii) issued $500 million in aggregate principal amount of public 5.375% Senior Notes due 2027.
In April 2017, T-Mobile USA and certain of its affiliates, as guarantors, (i) issued $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of 4.000% Senior Notes due 2022, (ii) issued $1.25 billion in aggregate principal amount of 5.125% Senior Notes due 2025 and (iii) issued $750 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.375% Senior Notes due 2027.

With the assistance of our outside cybersecurity experts, we located and closed the unauthorized access to our systems and identified current, former and prospective customers whose information was impacted and notified them, consistent with state and federal requirements. We also undertook a number of other measures to demonstrate our continued support and commitment to data privacy and protection. We also coordinated with law enforcement. Our forensic investigation is complete, and we believe we have a full view of the 6.366% Senior Reset Notes to affiliates due 2020.data compromised.
In May 2017, T-Mobile USA and certain of its affiliates, as guarantors, (i) issued $2.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of 5.300% Senior Notes due 2021, (ii) issued $1.35 billion in aggregate principal amount of 6.000% Senior Notes due 2024 and (iii) issued $650 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.000% Senior Notes due 2024.
In September 2017, T-Mobile USA and certain of its affiliates, as guarantors, issued the remaining $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.375% Senior Notes due 2027.
The guaranteesAs a result of the Guarantor Subsidiaries areAugust 2021 cyberattack, we have become subject to releasenumerous lawsuits, including mass arbitration claims and multiple class action lawsuits that have been filed in limited circumstances only upon the occurrence of certain customary conditions. The indentures and credit facilities governing the long-term debt contain covenants that,numerous jurisdictions seeking, among other things, limit the abilityunspecified monetary damages, costs and attorneys’ fees arising out of the Issuer andAugust 2021 cyberattack.

On July 22, 2022, we entered into an agreement to settle the lawsuit. On July 26, 2022, we received preliminary approval of the proposed settlement, which remains subject to final court approval. Final court approval of the terms of the settlement is expected as early as January 2023 but could be delayed by appeals or other encumbrances; enter into transactions with affiliates; enter into transactions that restrict dividends or distributions from subsidiaries; and merge, consolidate, or sell, or otherwise dispose of, substantially all of their assets.

We would also commit to an aggregate incremental spend of $150 million for data security and related technology in 2022 and 2023. We anticipate that, upon court approval, the settlement will provide a full release of all claims arising out of the August 2021 cyberattack by class members, who do not opt out, against all defendants, including us, our subsidiaries and affiliates, and our directors and officers. The settlement contains no admission of liability, wrongdoing or responsibility by any of the defendants. We have the right to terminate the settlement agreement under certain conditions.
Presented below isIf approved by the condensed consolidating financial information ascourt, we anticipate that this settlement of September 30, 2017the class action, along with other settlements of separate consumer claims that have been previously completed or are currently pending, will resolve substantially all of the claims brought to date by our current, former and December 31, 2016,prospective customers who were impacted by the 2021 cyberattack. In connection with the proposed
class action settlement and the separate settlements, we recorded a total pre-tax charge of approximately $400 million for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172022, in Selling, general and 2016.administrative expenses on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The ultimate resolution of the class action depends on whether we will be able to obtain court approval of the proposed settlement, the number of plaintiffs who opt-out of the proposed settlement and whether the proposed settlement will be appealed.
In addition, we have received inquiries from various government agencies, law enforcement and other governmental authorities related to the August 2021 cyberattack, which could result in substantial fines or penalties. We are responding to these inquiries and cooperating fully with these agencies and regulators. However, we cannot predict the timing or outcome of any of these matters, or whether we may be subject to further regulatory inquiries, investigations, or enforcement actions.
In light of the inherent uncertainties involved in such matters and based on the information currently available to us, we believe it is reasonably possible that we could incur additional losses associated with these proceedings and inquiries, and we will continue to evaluate information as it becomes known and will record an estimate for losses at the time or times when it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. Ongoing legal and other costs related to these proceedings and inquiries, as well as any potential future actions, may be substantial, and losses associated with any adverse judgments, settlements, penalties or other resolutions of such proceedings and inquiries could be material to our business, reputation, financial condition, cash flows and operating results.
In March 2022, we received $220 million in settlement of certain patent litigation. We recognized the settlement, net of legal fees, as a reduction to Selling, general and administrative expenses on our Condensed ConsolidatingConsolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
On June 17, 2022, plaintiffs filed a putative antitrust class action complaint in the Northern District of Illinois, Dale et al. v. Deutsche Telekom AG, et al., Case No. 1:22-cv-03189, against DT, T-Mobile, and Softbank, alleging that the T-Mobile and Sprint merger violated the antitrust laws and harmed competition in the U.S. retail cell service market. Plaintiffs seek injunctive relief and trebled monetary damages on behalf of a purported class of AT&T and Verizon customers who plaintiffs allege paid artificially inflated prices due to the merger. We intend to vigorously defend this lawsuit, but we are unable to predict the potential outcome.
Note 12 – Restructuring Costs
Upon close of the Merger, we began implementing restructuring initiatives to realize cost efficiencies and reduce redundancies. The major activities associated with the Merger restructuring initiatives to date include contract termination costs associated with the rationalization of retail stores, distribution channels, duplicative network and backhaul services and other agreements, severance costs associated with the integration of redundant processes and functions and the decommissioning of certain small cell sites and distributed antenna systems to achieve Merger synergies in network costs.
The following table summarizes the expenses incurred in connection with our Merger restructuring initiatives: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

The expenses associated with our Merger restructuring initiatives are included in Costs of services and Selling, general and administrative on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income.
Our Merger restructuring initiatives also include the acceleration or termination of certain of our operating and financing leases for cell sites, switch sites, retail stores, network equipment and office facilities. Incremental expenses associated with accelerating amortization of the right-of-use assets on lease contracts were $747 million and $261 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $1.2 billion and $384 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and are included in Costs of services and Selling, general and administrative on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

Wireline Impairment
We provide wireline communication services to domestic and international customers via the legacy Sprint Wireline network acquired through the Merger. The legacy Sprint Wireline network is primarily comprised of owned property and equipment, including land, buildings, communication systems and data processing equipment, fiber optic cable and operating lease right-of-use assets. Previously, the operation of the legacy Sprint CDMA and LTE wireless networks was supported by the legacy Sprint Wireline network. During the second quarter of 2022, we retired the legacy Sprint CDMA network and began the orderly shut-down of the LTE network.
We assess long-lived assets for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. We determined that the retirement of the legacy Sprint CDMA and LTE wireless networks triggered the need to assess the Wireline long-lived assets for impairment, as these assets no longer support our wireless network and the associated customers and cash flows in a significant manner. In evaluating whether the Wireline long-lived assets are impaired, we estimated the fair value of these assets using a combination of the cost, income and market approaches, including market participant assumptions. The fair value measurement of the Wireline assets was estimated using significant inputs not observable in the market (Level 3).
The results of this assessment indicated that certain Wireline long-lived assets were impaired, and as a result, we recorded non-cash impairment expense of $477 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 20172022, of which $258 million is related to Wireline Property and equipment, $212 million is related to Operating lease right-of-use assets and $7 million is related to Other intangible assets. In measuring and allocating the impairment expense to individual Wireline long-lived assets, we did not impair the long-lived assets below their individual fair values. After recording the impairment expense, the carrying amount of the Wireline long-lived assets recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet is $675 million as of June 30, 2022. The expense is included within Impairment expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income. There was no impairment expense recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.
Note 14 – Subsequent Events
Subsequent to June 30, 2022, on July 22, 2022, we entered into an agreement to settle a consolidated class action lawsuit asserting claims related to the August 2021 cyberattack. In connection with the proposed class action settlement and certain separate settlements, we recorded a total pre-tax charge of approximately $400 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, in Selling, general and administrative expenses on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income. See Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies for additional information.

Merger-Related Costs
Merger-related costs associated with the imputed discount on EIP receivables, which is amortized overMerger and acquisitions of affiliates generally include:
•Integration costs to achieve efficiencies in network, retail, information technology and back office operations, migrate customers to the financed installment term using the effective interest methodT-Mobile network and was previously recognized within Interest income in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, is recognized within Other revenues in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. We believe this presentation is preferable because it provides a better representation of amounts earned from the Company’s major ongoing operations and aligns with industry practice thereby enhancing comparability. We have applied this change retrospectivelybilling systems and the effectimpact of this change forlegal matters assumed as part of the threeMerger;
•Restructuring costs, including severance, store rationalization and nine months ended September 30, 2016, was a reclassificationnetwork decommissioning; and
•Transaction costs, including legal and professional services related to the completion of $59 million and $189 million, respectively, from Interest income to Other revenues. The amortization of imputed discount on our EIP receivables for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, was $74 million and $204 million, respectively. For additional information, see transactions.
In January 2017, Merger-related costs have been excluded from our calculations of Adjusted EBITDA and Core Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures, as we
introduced, Un-carrier Next, where monthly wireless service feesdo not consider these costs to be reflective of our ongoing operating performance. See “Adjusted EBITDA and
sales taxesCore Adjusted EBITDA” in the “Performance Measures” section of this MD&A. Net cash payments for Merger-related costs, including payments related to our restructuring plan, are included in the advertised monthly recurring charge for T-Mobile ONE. We also unveiled Kickback on T-Mobile ONE, where participating customers who use 2 GB or less of data in a month, will get up to a $10 credit per qualifying line on their next month’s bill. In addition, we introduced the Un-contract for T-Mobile ONE with the first-ever price guarantee on an unlimited 4G LTE plan which allows current T-Mobile ONE customers to keep their price for service until they decide to change it.
In September 2017, we introduced, Un-carrier Next: Netflix On Us, through an exclusive new partnership with Netflix where a standard monthly Netflix service plan is included at no charge to qualifying T-Mobile ONE customers on family plans.
During the third quarter of 2017, our operations in Texas, Florida and Puerto Rico experienced losses related to hurricanes. Based on our preliminary assessment, the approximate impacts for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, from lost revenue, assets damaged or destroyed and other hurricane related costs incurred are included in the table below. As of September 30, 2017, our loss assessment is ongoing and we expect additional expenses to be incurred and customer activity to be impacted in the fourth quarter of 2017, primarily related to our operations in Puerto Rico. We have not recognized any potential insurance recoveries related to those hurricane losses as we continue to assess the damage and work with our insurance carriers.

Results of Operations
Highlights for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016
Total revenues of $10.0 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2017, increased $714 million, or 8%. The increase was primarily driven by growth in service and equipment revenues as further discussed below. On September 1, 2016, we sold our marketing and distribution rights to certain existing T-Mobile co-branded customers to a current Mobile Virtual Network Operator (“MVNO”) partner for nominal consideration (the “MVNO Transaction”). The MVNO Transaction shifted Branded postpaid revenues to Wholesale revenues, but did not materially impact total revenues.
Service revenues of $7.6 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2017, increased $496 million, or 7%. The increase was primarily due to growth in our average branded customer base as a result of strong customer response to our Un-carrier initiatives, promotions and the success of our MetroPCS brand.
Equipment revenues of $2.1 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2017, increased $170 million, or 9%. The increase was primarily due to an increase from customer purchases of leased devices at the end of the lease term, the liquidation of returned customer handsets and a higher average revenue per device sold, partially offset by lower lease revenues.
Operating income of $1.3 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2017, increased $275 million, or 26%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in total service revenues and lower Depreciation and amortization, partially offset by higher Selling, general and administrative expenses, higher Cost of services expense and a decrease in Gains on disposal of spectrum licenses.
Net income of $550 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, increased $184 million, or 50%. The increase was primarily due to higher operating income driven by the factors described above and a net decrease in interest expense, partially offset by higher income tax expense primarily due to an increase in income before income taxes and the negative impact from hurricanes. Net incomeincluded net, after-tax gains of $18 million and $122 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Adjusted EBITDA (see “Performance Measures”), a non-GAAP financial measure, of $2.8 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2017, increased $133 million, or 5%. The increase was primarily due to higher operating income driven by the factors described above, partially offset by lower Gains on disposal of spectrum licenses. Adjusted EBITDA included pre-tax spectrum gains of $29 million and $199 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

NM - Not Meaningful
We expect to incur a total of $12.0 billion of Merger-related costs, excluding capital expenditures, of which $9.6 billion has been incurred since the beginning of 2018, including $700 million of costs incurred by Sprint prior to the Merger. We expect to incur the remaining $2.4 billion to complete our integration and restructuring activities over the next two years with substantially all costs incurred by the end of 2023.
Total Merger-related costs for the year ending December 31, 2022, are expected to be between $4.7 billion to $5.0 billion, including $1.7 billion and $3.1 billion incurred during the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017, increased $622 million,2022, respectively. We are evaluating additional restructuring initiatives which are dependent on consultations and negotiation with certain counterparties and the expected impact on our business operations, which could affect the amount or 36% (see “Liquiditytiming of the restructuring costs and Capital Resources”).related payments. We expect our principal sources of funding to be sufficient to meet our liquidity requirements and anticipated payments associated with the restructuring initiatives.
Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP financial measure,Network Integration
To achieve Merger synergies in network costs, we are performing rationalization activities to identify duplicative networks, backhaul services and other agreements in addition to decommissioning certain small cell sites and distributed antenna systems. These initiatives also include the acceleration or termination of $921 millioncertain of our operating and financing leases for cell sites, switch sites and network equipment. We have targeted approximately 35,000 cell sites for decommissioning. As of June 30, 2022, we had decommissioned nearly two-thirds of the targeted cell sites and expect to substantially complete the remaining site decommissioning in the third quarter of 2022.
To allow for the three months ended September 30, 2017, increased $340 million, or 59% (see “Liquidityrealization of these synergies associated with network integration, we retired certain legacy networks including the legacy Sprint CDMA network and Capital Resources”).began the orderly shut-down of the LTE network in the second quarter of 2022. Customers impacted by the decommissioning of these networks have been excluded from our customer base and postpaid account base. See Performance Measures for more details.
Restructuring
Highlights forUpon the nine months ended September 30, 2017, comparedclose of the Merger, we began implementing restructuring initiatives to realize cost efficiencies from the Merger. The major activities associated with the restructuring initiatives to date include:
•Contract termination costs associated with rationalization of retail stores, distribution channels, duplicative network and backhaul services and other agreements;
•Severance costs associated with the reduction of redundant processes and functions; and
•The decommissioning of certain small cell sites and distributed antenna systems to achieve Merger synergies in network costs.
For more information regarding our restructuring activities, see Note 12 – Restructuring Costs of the Notes to the same period in 2016Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Total revenues of $29.8 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, increased $2.6 billion, or 9%. The increase was primarily driven by growth in service and equipment revenues as further discussed below. On September 1, 2016, we sold our marketing and distribution rights to certain existing T-Mobile co-branded customers to a current Mobile Virtual Network Operator (“MVNO”) partner for nominal consideration (the “MVNO Transaction”). The MVNO Transaction shifted Branded postpaid revenues to Wholesale revenues, but did not materially impact total revenues.Other Impacts
Service revenues of $22.4 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, increased $1.8 billion, or 9%. The increase was primarily due to growth in our average branded customer base asAnticipated Merger Synergies
As a result of strong customer responseour ongoing restructuring and integration activities, we expect to realize Merger synergies by eliminating redundancies within our Un-carrier initiatives, promotionscombined network as well as other business processes and the success of our MetroPCS brand.
Equipment revenues of $6.7 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, increased $680 million, or 11%. The increase was primarily due to higher average revenue per device sold and an increaseoperations. For full-year 2022, we expect Merger synergies from customer purchases of leased devices at the end of the lease term, partially offset by lower lease revenues.
Operating income of $3.8 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, increased $727 million, or 24%. The increase was primarily due to higher Total service revenues and lower Depreciation and amortization, partially offset by lower Gains on disposal of spectrum licenses and higher Selling, general and administrative andexpense reductions of $2.3 billion to $2.4 billion, Cost of services expenses.service expense reductions of $1.8 billion to $1.9 billion and avoided network expenses of $1.3 billion.
Wireline Impacts
Net income
Previously, the operation of $1.8 billionthe legacy Sprint CDMA and LTE wireless networks was supported by the legacy Sprint Wireline network. During the second quarter of 2022, we retired the legacy Sprint CDMA network and began the orderly shut-down of the LTE network. We determined that the retirement of the legacy Sprint CDMA and LTE wireless networks triggered the need to assess the Wireline long-lived assets for impairment, as these assets no longer support our wireless network and the associated customers and cash flows in a significant manner. The results of this assessment indicated that certain Wireline long-lived assets were impaired, and as a result, we recorded non-cash impairment expense of $477 million related to Wireline Property and equipment, Operating lease right-of-use assets and Other intangible assets for the ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017, increased $7592022. We continue to provide Wireline services to existing Wireline customers.
Cyberattack
As we previously reported, we were subject to a criminalcyberattack involving unauthorized access to T-Mobile’s systems. We promptly located and closed the unauthorized access to our systems. Our forensic investigation was completed in October 2021. There are no material updates with respect to the August 2021 cyberattack and subsequent inquiries, investigations, litigations and remedial measures from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, except as disclosed in Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies.
In connection with the proposed class action settlement and the separate settlements reached with a number of consumers, we recorded a total pre-tax charge of approximately $400 million, in the second quarter of 2022. We expect to continue to incur additional expenses in future periods, including costs to remediate the attack, resolve inquiries by various government authorities, provide additional customer support and enhance customer protection, only some of which may be covered and reimbursable by insurance. In addition to the committed aggregate incremental spend of $150 million for data security and related technology in 2022 and 2023 under the proposed settlement agreement, we intend to commit substantial additional resources towards cybersecurity initiatives over the next several years.
COVID-19 Pandemic and Other Macroeconomic Trends
The Pandemic has resulted in a widespread health crisis that has adversely affected businesses, economies and financial markets worldwide, and has caused significant volatility in the U.S. and international debt and equity markets. In addition, the Pandemic has resulted in economic uncertainty, which could affect our customers’ purchasing decisions and ability to make timely payments. Current and future Pandemic-related restrictions on, or 71%. The increase was primarily duedisruptions of, transportation networks and supply chain shortages could impact our ability to higher operating income drivenacquire handsets or other end user devices in amounts sufficient to meet customer demand and to obtain the equipment required to meet our current and future network build-out plans. We will continue to monitor the Pandemic and its impacts and may adjust our actions as needed to continue to provide our products and services to our communities and employees.
As a critical communications infrastructure provider as designated by the factors described above, a lower tax rate primarily duegovernment, our focus has been on providing crucial connectivity to a reductionour customers and impacted communities while ensuring the safety and well-being of our employees.
Other macroeconomic trends may result in adverse impacts on our business, and we continue to monitor the potential impacts of, for example, higher inflation, potential for economic recession and changes in the valuation allowance against deferred tax assetsFederal Reserve’s monetary policy, as well as geopolitical risks, including the war in Ukraine. Such scenarios and a net decrease in interest expense, partially offset by the negative impact from hurricanes. Net income included net, after-tax gainsuncertainties may affect, among others, expected credit loss activity as well as certain fair value estimates.
Results of Operations
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, of $8.5 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, increased $470 million, or 6%. The increase was primarily due to higher operating income driven by the factors described above, partially offset by lower Gains on disposal of spectrum licenses. Adjusted EBITDA included pre-tax spectrum gains of $67 million and $835 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Net cash provided by operating activities of $5.9 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, increased $1.4 billion, or 30% (see “Liquidity and Capital Resources”).

The change to the results of operations of our Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily from:
Higher Service revenues primarily due to the result of an increase in activity of the non-guarantor subsidiary that provides device insurance, primarily driven by growth in our customer base;
Lower Cost of equipment sales expenses primarily due to decrease in claims activity and lower device costs used; and
Lower Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily due to a decrease in program service fees, partially offset by higher costs to support our growing customer base.
The change to the results of operations of our Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily from:

Lower Cost of equipment sales expenses primarily due to lower non-return fees charged to the customer; and
Higher Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily due to higher costs to support our growing customer base, partially offset by a decrease in program service fees.

Performance Measures
In managing our business and assessing financial performance, we supplement the information provided by our condensed consolidated financial statements with other operating or statistical data and non-GAAP financial measures. These operating and financial measures are utilized by our management to evaluate our operating performance and, in certain cases, our ability to meet liquidity requirements. Although companies in the wireless industry may not define each of these measures in precisely the same way, we believe that these measures facilitate comparisons with other companies in the wireless industry on key operating and financial measures.

Postpaid accounts generally consist of customers that are qualified for postpaid service utilizing phones, High Speed Internet, wearables, DIGITS or other connected devices, which include tablets and SyncUp products, where they generally pay after receiving service.

We will continue to support our wholesale partners offering the Lifeline program, but have excluded the Lifeline customers from our reported wholesale subscriber base resulting in the removal of 160,000 and 4,368,000 reported wholesale customers as of the beginning of the third quarter of 2017 and beginning of the second quarter of 2017, respectively. No further Lifeline adjustments are expected in future periods.

As of June 30, 2022, we derecognized net receivables of $2.3 billion senior secured revolving credit facility with DT asupon sale through these arrangements.
Future Sources and Uses of Liquidity
We couldmay seek additional sources of liquidity, including through the issuance of additional long-term debt, in 2017, to continue to opportunistically acquire spectrum licenses or other assets in private party transactions or for the refinancing of existing long-term debt on an opportunistic basis. Excluding liquidity that could be needed for spectrum acquisitions, or other assets or for any potential shareholder returns, we expect our principal sources of funding to be sufficient to meet our anticipated liquidity needs for business operations for the next 12 months.months as well as our longer-term liquidity needs. Our intended use of any such funds is for general corporate purposes, including for capital expenditures, spectrum purchases, opportunistic investments and acquisitions, and redemption of high yield callable debt.debt, tower obligations and the execution of our integration plan.
We determine future liquidity requirements, for both operations and capital expenditures, based in large part upon projected financial and operating performance, and opportunities to acquire additional spectrum. We regularly review and update these projections for changes in current and projected financial and operating results, general economic conditions, the competitive landscape and other factors. We have incurred, and will incur, substantial expenses to comply with the Government Commitments, and we are also expected to incur substantial restructuring expenses in connection with integrating and coordinating T-Mobile’s and Sprint’s businesses, operations, policies and procedures. See “Restructuring” of this MD&A. While we have assumed that a certain level of Merger-related expenses will be incurred, factors beyond our control, including required consultation and negotiation with certain counterparties, could affect the total amount or the timing of these expenses. These expenses could exceed the costs historically borne by us and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. There are a number of additional risks and uncertainties, including those due to the impact of the Pandemic, that could cause our financial and operating results and capital requirements to differ materially from our projections, which could cause future liquidity to differ materially from our assessment.

We have relied upon DT and SoftBank for information regarding their respective activities, transactions and dealings.
DT, through certain of its non-U.S. subsidiaries, is party to roaming and interconnect agreements with the following mobile and fixed line telecommunication providers in Iran, some of which are or may be government-controlled entities: Gostaresh Ertebatat Taliya, Irancell Telecommunications Services Company, (“MTN Irancell”), Telecommunication Kish Company, Mobile Telecommunication Company of Iran, and Telecommunication Infrastructure Company of Iran. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2022, DT, through certain of its non-U.S. subsidiaries, provided basic telecommunications services to four customers in Germany identified on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List maintained by the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control: Bank Melli, Europäisch-Iranische Handelsbank, CPG Engineering & Commercial Services GmbH and Golgohar Trade and Technology GmbH. These services have been terminated or are in the process of being terminated.For the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2022, gross revenues of all DT affiliates generated by roaming and interconnection traffic and telecommunications services with Iranthe Iranian parties identified herein were less than $1.0$0.1 million, and the estimated net profits were less than $1.0$0.1 million.
In addition, DT, through certain of its non-U.S. subsidiaries operatingthat operate a fixed linefixed-line network in their respective European home countries (in particular Germany), provides telecommunications services in the ordinary course of business to the Embassy of Iran in those European countries. Gross revenues and net profits recorded from these activities for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172022 were less than $0.1 million. We understand that DT intends to continue these activities.
Separately, SoftBank, through one of its non-U.S. subsidiaries, provides roaming services in Iran through Irancell Telecommunications Services Company. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, SoftBank had no gross revenues from such services and no net profit was generated. We understand that the SoftBank subsidiary intends to continue such services. This subsidiary also provides telecommunications services in the ordinary course of business to accounts affiliated with the Embassy of Iran in Japan. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, SoftBank estimates that gross revenues and net profit generated by such services were both under $0.1 million. We understand that the SoftBank subsidiary is obligated under contract and intends to continue such services.
In addition, SoftBank, through one of its non-U.S. indirect subsidiaries, provides office supplies to the Embassy of Iran in Japan. SoftBank estimates that gross revenue and net profit generated by such services during the three months ended June 30, 2022, were both under $0.1 million. We understand that the SoftBank subsidiary intends to continue such activities.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
ThereOther than the updated risk factors below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors as previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2021.
We have experienced criminal cyberattacks and could in the future be further harmed by disruption, data loss or other security breaches, whether directly or indirectly through third parties.
Our business involves the receipt, storage, and transmission of confidential information about our customers, such as sensitive personal, account and payment card information, confidential information about our employees and suppliers, and other sensitive information about our Company, such as our business plans, transactions, financial information, and intellectual property (collectively, “Confidential Information”). We are subject to persistent cyberattacks and threats to our networks, systems, and supply chain from a variety of bad actors, many of whom attempt to gain access to and compromise Confidential Information by exploiting bugs, errors, misconfigurations or other vulnerabilities in our networks and other systems (including purchased and third-party systems) or by engaging in credential harvesting or social engineering. In some cases, these bad actors may obtain unauthorized access to Confidential Information utilizing credentials taken from our customers, employees, or third parties. Other bad actors aim to cause serious operational disruptions to our business or networks through other means, such as through ransomware or distributed denial of services attacks.
Cyberattacks against companies like ours have increased in frequency and potential harm over time, and the methods used to gain unauthorized access constantly evolve, making it increasingly difficult to anticipate, prevent, and/or detect incidents successfully in every instance. They are perpetrated by a variety of groups and persons, including state-sponsored parties, malicious actors, employees, contractors, or other unrelated third parties. Some of these persons reside in jurisdictions where law enforcement measures to address such attacks are ineffective or unavailable, and such attacks may even be perpetrated by or at the behest of foreign governments.
In addition, we routinely provide certain Confidential Information to third-party providers whose products and services are used in our business operations, including as part of our IT systems, such as cloud services. These third-party providers have experienced in the past, and will continue to experience in the future, cyberattacks that involve attempts to obtain unauthorized access to our Confidential Information and/or to create operational disruptions that could adversely affect our business, and these providers also face other security challenges common to all parties that collect and process information.
In August 2021, we disclosed that our systems were subject to a criminal cyberattack that compromised certain data of millions of our current customers, former customers, and prospective customers, including, in some instances, social security numbers, names, addresses, dates of birth and driver’s license/identification numbers. With the assistance of outside cybersecurity experts, we located and closed the unauthorized access to our systems and identified current, former, and prospective customers whose information was impacted and notified them, consistent with state and federal requirements. We have incurred certain cyberattack-related expenses, including costs to remediate the attack, provide additional customer support and enhance customer protection, and expect to incur additional expense in future periods resulting from the attack. For more information, see “Cyberattack” in the Overview section of MD&A. As a result of the August 2021 cyberattack, we are subject to numerous claims, lawsuits and regulatory inquiries, the ongoing costs of which may be material, and we may be subject to further regulatory inquiries and private litigation. For more information, see “– Contingencies and Litigation – Litigation and Regulatory Matters” in Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.” As a result of the August 2021 cyberattack, we may incur significant costs or experience other material financial impacts, which may not be covered by, or may exceed the coverage limits of, our cyber insurance, and such costs and impacts may have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, financial condition, cash flows and operating results.
In addition to the August 2021 cyberattack, we have experienced other unrelated immaterial incidents involving unauthorized access to certain Confidential Information. Typically, these incidents have involved attempts to commit fraud by taking control of a customer’s phone line, often by using compromised credentials. In other cases, the incidents have involved unauthorized access to certain of our customers’ private information, including credit card information, financial data, social security numbers or passwords, and to certain of our intellectual property.
Our procedures and safeguards to prevent unauthorized access to Confidential Information and to defend against cyberattacks seeking to disrupt our operations must be continually evaluated and enhanced to address the ever-evolving threat landscape and changing cybersecurity regulations. These preventative actions require the investment of significant resources and management time and attention. Additionally, we do not have control of the cybersecurity systems, breach prevention, and response protocols of our third-party providers. While T-Mobile may have contractual rights to assess the effectiveness of many of our providers’ systems and protocols, we do not have the means to know or assess the effectiveness of all of our providers’ systems
and controls at all times. We cannot provide any assurances that actions taken by us, or our third-party providers, will adequately repel a significant cyberattack or prevent or substantially mitigate the impacts of cybersecurity breaches or misuses of Confidential Information, unauthorized access to our networks or systems or exploits against third-party environments, or that we, or our third-party providers, will be able to effectively identify, investigate, and remediate such incidents in a timely manner or at all. We expect to continue to be the target of cyberattacks, given the nature of our business, and we expect the same with respect to our third-party providers. Our inability to protect Confidential Information or to prevent operational disruptions from future cyberattacks may have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, financial condition, cash flows, and operating results.
Unfavorable outcomes of legal proceedings may adversely affect our business, reputation, financial condition, cash flows and operating results.
We and our affiliates are involved in various disputes, governmental and/or regulatory inspections, investigations and proceedings and litigation matters. Such legal proceedings can be complex, costly, and highly disruptive to our business operations by diverting the attention and energy of management and other key personnel.
In connection with the Transactions, we became subject to a number of legal proceedings, including a putative shareholder class action and derivative lawsuit and a putative antitrust class action. For more information, see “– Contingencies and Litigation – Litigation and Regulatory Matters” in Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. It is possible that stockholders of T-Mobile and/or Sprint may file additional putative class action lawsuits or shareholder derivative actions against the Company and the legacy T-Mobile board of directors and/or the legacy Sprint board of directors. Among other remedies, these stockholders could seek damages. The outcome of any litigation is uncertain and any such potential lawsuits could result in substantial costs and may be costly and distracting to management.
Additionally, on April 1, 2020, in connection with the closing of the Merger, we assumed the contingencies and litigation matters of Sprint. Those matters include a wide variety of disputes, claims, government agency investigations and enforcement actions and other proceedings. Unfavorable resolution of these matters could require making additional reimbursements and paying additional fines and penalties.
On February 28, 2020, we received a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture and Admonishment from the FCC, which proposed a penalty against us for allegedly violating Section 222 of the Communications Act and the FCC’s regulations governing the privacy of customer information. We recorded an accrual for an estimated payment amount as of March 31, 2020, which was included in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As a result of the August 2021 cyberattack, we are subject to numerous lawsuits, including a consolidated class action lawsuits seeking unspecified monetary damages, mass consumer arbitrations, and inquiries by various government agencies, law enforcement and other governmental authorities, and we may be subject to further regulatory inquiries and private litigation. We are cooperating fully with regulators and vigorously defending against the class actions and other lawsuits. On July 22, 2022, we entered into an agreement to settle the consolidated class action lawsuit. On July 26, 2022, we received preliminary approval of the proposed settlement, which remains subject to final court approval. Final court approval of the terms of the settlement is expected as early as January 2023 but could be delayed by appeals or other proceedings. If approved by the court, under the terms of the proposed settlement, we would pay an aggregate of $350 million to fund claims submitted by class members, the legal fees of plaintiffs’ counsel and the costs of administering the settlement. We would also commit to an aggregate incremental spend of $150 million for data security and related technology in 2022 and 2023. In connection with the proposed class action settlement and other settlements of separate consumer claims that have been previously completed or are currently pending, we recorded a total pre-tax charge of approximately $400 million in the second quarter of 2022. In light of the inherent uncertainties involved in such matters and based on the information currently available to us, we believe it is reasonably possible that we could incur additional losses associated with these proceedings and inquiries, and we will continue to evaluate information as it becomes known and will record an estimate for losses at the time or times when it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. Ongoing legal and other costs related to these proceedings and inquiries, as well as any potential future proceedings and inquiries related to the August 2021 cyberattack, may be substantial, and losses associated with any adverse judgments, settlements, penalties or other resolutions of such proceedings and inquiries could be significant and have a material adverse impact on our business, reputation, financial condition, cash flows and operating results.
We, along with equipment manufacturers and other carriers, are subject to current and potential future lawsuits alleging adverse health effects arising from the use of wireless handsets or from wireless transmission equipment such as cell towers. In addition, the FCC has from time to time gathered data regarding wireless device emissions, and its assessment of the risks
associated with using wireless devices may evolve based on its findings. Any of these allegations or changes in risk assessments could result in customers purchasing fewer devices and wireless services, could result in significant legal and regulatory liability, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, financial condition, cash flows and operating results.
The assessment of the outcome of legal proceedings, including our potential liability, if any, is a highly subjective process that requires judgments about future events that are not within our control. The amounts ultimately received or paid upon settlement or pursuant to final judgment, order or decree may differ materially from amounts accrued in our financial statements. In addition, litigation or similar proceedings could impose restraints on our current or future manner of doing business. Such potential outcomes including judgments, awards, settlements or orders could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, financial condition, cash flows and operating results.
