| | “T-Mobile had our strongest year ever. We didn’t just meet the bold goals we set for 2021 around customer growth, profitability, merger synergies and network buildout – we crushed all of them. Our industry-leading year-end results – adding 1.2 million postpaid accounts and 5.5 million postpaid customers, extending Ultra Capacity 5G to 210 million people – show that the Un-carrier is experiencing the greatest growth momentum in wireless. And we’re poised to sustain that position into 2022 and beyond as we continue to execute on our winning playbook and consistently make investments that have enabled our success. With plenty of room to run, we’re in the best-ever position to continue delivering.” | |

(1)AT&T Inc. historically does not disclose postpaid net account additions.
(2)Core Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information provided in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations for these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Financial Measures tables. We are not able to forecast Net income on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting certain items that affect Net income including, but not limited to, Income tax expense, stock-based compensation expense and Interest expense. Core Adjusted EBITDA should not be used to predict Net income as the difference between either of the two measures and Net Income is variable.
(3)As compared to Free Cash Flow excluding gross payments for the settlement of interest rate swaps in 2020.
(4)Postpaid customer growth is based on industry consensus expectations.

Capital expenditures (4) | | $13.0 to $13.5 billion | | | | | |
Free Cash Flow (5) | | $7.1 to $7.6 billion | | | | | |
(1)We are not able to forecast Net income on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting certain items that affect GAAP Net income, including, but not limited to, Income tax expense, stock-based compensation expense and Interest expense. Core Adjusted EBITDA should not be used to predict Net income as the difference between this measure and Net Income is variable.
(2)Management uses Core Adjusted EBITDA as a measure to monitor the financial performance of our operations, excluding the impact of lease revenues from our related device financing programs. Our guidance ranges assume lease revenues to be between $1.1 billion and $1.4 billion for 2022.
(3)Merger-related costs are excluded from Core Adjusted EBITDA but will impact Net income, Net cash provided by operating activities and Free Cash Flow.
(4)Capital expenditures means cash purchases of property and equipment, including capitalized interest.
(5)Free Cash Flow guidance does not assume any material net cash inflows from securitization in 2022.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Financial Measures
(Unaudited)
This Investor Factbook includes non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information provided in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations for the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided below. T-Mobile is not able to forecast Net income on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting certain items that affect GAAP net income including, but not limited to, Income tax expense, stock-based compensation expense and Interest expense. Adjusted EBITDA and Core Adjusted EBITDA should not be used to predict Net income, as the difference between either of these measures and Net income is variable.
The following table includes the impact of the Merger on a prospective basis from the close date of April 1, 2020. Historical results prior to April 1, 2020 have not been retroactively adjusted and reflect standalone T-Mobile.
Adjusted EBITDA and Core Adjusted EBITDA are reconciled to Net income as follows:

(1)Following the Prepaid Transaction (as defined below), starting on July 1, 2020, we provide MVNO services to DISH. We have included the operating income from discontinued operations, for periods prior to the Prepaid Transaction, in our determination of the Adjusted EBITDA to reflect contributions of the Prepaid Business that has been replaced by the MVNO Agreement beginning on July 1, 2020 in order to enable management, analysts and investors to better assess ongoing operating performance and trends.
(2)Stock-based compensation includes payroll tax impacts and may not agree to stock-based compensation expense in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Additionally, certain stock-based compensation expenses associated with the Merger have been included in Merger-related costs.
(3)Supplemental employee payroll, third-party commissions and cleaning-related COVID-19-related costs were not significant for Q3 2020, Q4 2020, Q1 2021, Q2 2021, Q3 2021 and Q4 2021.
(4)Other, net may not agree to the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, primarily due to certain non-routine operating activities, such as other special items that would not be expected to reoccur or are not reflective of T-Mobile’s ongoing operating performance, and are, therefore, excluded from Adjusted EBITDA and Core Adjusted EBITDA.

For the periods from June 30, 2020, through December 31, 2020, LTM Adjusted EBITDA and LTM Core Adjusted EBITDA represent pro forma figures.
LTM Adjusted EBITDA and LTM Core Adjusted EBITDA reflect combined company results of T-Mobile for Q4 2021, Q3 2021, Q2 2021, Q1 2021, Q4 2020, Q3 2020 and Q2 2020 and standalone T-Mobile for prior periods. To illustrate the twelve month results of the combined company as if the Merger had closed on January 1, 2019, we have presented pro forma LTM Adjusted EBITDA and pro forma LTM Core Adjusted EBITDA ratios through December 31, 2020. Pro forma LTM Adjusted EBITDA for the LTM period ended December 31, 2020 is calculated as the sum of Q4 2020, Q3 2020 and Q2 2020 actual Adjusted EBITDA of $6.7 billion, $7.1 billion and $7.0 billion, respectively, plus the pro forma Adjusted EBITDA from Q1 2020 of $6.7 billion. Pro forma LTM Core Adjusted EBITDA for the LTM period ended December 31, 2020 is calculated as the sum of Q4 2020, Q3 2020 and Q2 2020 actual Core Adjusted EBITDA of $5.5 billion, $5.8 billion and $5.6 billion plus the pro forma Core Adjusted EBITDA from Q1 2020 of $5.2 billion. The same method applies to pro forma LTM Adjusted EBITDA and pro forma LTM Core Adjusted EBITDA for the LTM periods ended September 30 and June 30, 2020. These metrics are provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results would have been had the Merger actually occurred on the date indicated, nor do they purport to project the future consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial condition for any future period or as of any future date. Additional information regarding pro forma adjustments is provided in Pro Forma Income Statement Metrics within this Investor Factbook. LTM Adjusted EBITDA and LTM Core Adjusted EBITDA for Q1 2021 and subsequent periods were not prepared on a pro forma basis as twelve months of actual combined company results were available.

(1)In connection with the closing of the Merger, we refined our definition of wholesale customers resulting in the reclassification of certain postpaid and prepaid reseller customers to wholesale customers. Starting with the three months ended March 31, 2020, we discontinued reporting wholesale customers to focus on postpaid and prepaid customers and wholesale revenues, which we consider more relevant than the number of wholesale customers given the expansion of M2M and IoT products.
(2)Prepaid customers with a device installment billing plan historically included as Sprint postpaid customers have been reclassified to prepaid customers to align with the combined company policy.
(3)Customers associated with the Sprint wireless prepaid and Boost brands that were divested on July 1, 2020, have been excluded from our reported customers.
(4)Customers who have rate plans with monthly recurring charges which are considered insignificant have been excluded from our reported customers.

Pro Forma Income Statement Metrics
(Unaudited)
The following tables present certain income statement metrics on a pro forma basis as though the Merger had been completed on January 1, 2019. The unaudited pro forma income statement metrics have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X (“Article 11”) which is a different basis than the unaudited pro forma financial information included in Note 2 - Business Combinations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The primary difference between the Article 11 pro forma financial information and the ASC 805 pro forma financial information prepared by us is the treatment of certain one-time transaction costs, which are removed from all periods under Article 11 but are recognized as if they had been incurred in their entirety during Q1 2019 under ASC 805. The unaudited pro forma income statement metrics are provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial condition would have been had the Merger actually occurred on the date indicated, nor do they purport to project the future consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial condition for any future period or as of any future date. For the purposes of this section, “Combined” means the summation of historically reported standalone GAAP amounts of T-Mobile and Sprint. “Pro forma adjustments” means adjustments to combined metrics to give effect to matters that are directly attributable to the Merger, factually supportable, and expected to have a continuing impact on the results of the combined company. “Pro forma” metrics are those that have been adjusted as required for the presentation of Article 11 pro forma information.
We are presenting the pro forma metrics for the three months ended September 30, 2019, December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020 to support the reconciliation of our LTM pro forma Adjusted EBITDA and pro forma Core Adjusted EBITDA calculations included in the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Financial Measures of this presentation.

Definitions of Terms
Operating and financial measures are utilized by T-Mobile’s management to evaluate its operating performance and, in certain cases, its ability to meet liquidity requirements. Although companies in the wireless industry may not define measures in precisely the same way, T-Mobile believes the measures facilitate key operating performance comparisons with other companies in the wireless industry to provide management, investors and analysts with useful information to assess and evaluate past performance and assist in forecasting future performance.
1.Account - A postpaid account is generally defined as a billing account number that generates revenue. 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.
2.Customer - SIM number with a unique T-Mobile mobile identifier which is associated with an account that generates revenue. Customers generally are qualified either for postpaid service, where they generally pay after incurring service, or prepaid service, where they generally pay in advance.
3.Churn - The number of customers whose service was disconnected as a percentage of the average number of customers during the specified period further divided by the number of months in the period. The number of customers whose service was disconnected is presented net of customers that subsequently have their service restored within a certain period of time.
4.Customers per account - The number of postpaid customers as of the end of the period divided by the number of postpaid accounts as of the end of the period. An account may include postpaid phone, home internet, mobile broadband, and DIGITS customers.
5.Postpaid Average Revenue Per Account (Postpaid ARPA) - Average monthly postpaid service revenue earned per account. Postpaid service revenues for the specified period divided by the average number of postpaid accounts during the period, further divided by the number of months in the period.
Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) - Average monthly service revenue earned per customer. Service revenues for the specified period divided by the average number of customers during the period, further divided by the number of months in the period.
Postpaid phone ARPU excludes postpaid other customers and related revenues.
Service revenues - Postpaid, including handset insurance, prepaid, wholesale and other service revenues.
6.Cost of services - Costs directly attributable to providing wireless service through the operation of T-Mobile’s network, including direct switch and cell site costs, such as rent, network access and transport costs, utilities, maintenance, associated labor costs, long distance costs, regulatory program costs, roaming fees paid to other carriers and data content costs.
Cost of equipment sales - Costs of devices and accessories sold to customers and dealers, device costs to fulfill insurance and warranty claims, write-downs of inventory related to shrinkage and obsolescence, and shipping and handling costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses - Costs not directly attributable to providing wireless service for the operation of sales, customer care and corporate activities. These include all commissions paid to dealers and retail employees for activations and upgrades, labor and facilities costs associated with retail sales force and administrative space, marketing and promotional costs, customer support and billing, bad debt expense and administrative support activities.
7.Net income margin - Net income margin is calculated as net income divided by service revenues.
8.Adjusted EBITDA and Core Adjusted EBITDA - Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before Interest expense, net of Interest income, Income tax expense, Depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation and certain expenses not reflective of T-Mobile’s ongoing operating performance, such as Merger-related costs, COVID-19-related costs and Impairment expense. Core Adjusted EBITDA represents Adjusted EBITDA less lease revenues. Core Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures utilized by T-Mobile’s management to monitor the financial performance of our operations. T-Mobile uses Core Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as benchmarks to evaluate T-Mobile’s operating performance in comparison to its competitors. T-Mobile also uses Adjusted EBITDA internally as a measure to evaluate and compensate its personnel and management for their performance. Management believes analysts and investors use Core Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental measures to evaluate overall operating performance and facilitate comparisons with other wireless communications companies because they are indicative of T-Mobile’s ongoing operating performance and trends by excluding the impact of Interest expense from financing, non-cash depreciation and amortization from capital investments, stock-based compensation, Merger-related costs including network decommissioning costs, incremental costs directly attributable to COVID-19 and impairment expense, as they are not indicative of T-Mobile’s ongoing operating performance, as well as certain other nonrecurring income and expenses. Management believes analysts and investors use Core Adjusted EBITDA because it normalizes for the transition in the company’s device financing strategy, by excluding the impact of lease revenues from Adjusted EBITDA, to align with the related depreciation expense on leased devices, which is excluded from the definition of Adjusted EBITDA. Core Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for Net income or any other measure of financial performance reported in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).
9.Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Core Adjusted EBITDA Margin - Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by service revenues. Core Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Core Adjusted EBITDA divided by service revenues.
10.Free Cash Flow - Net cash provided by operating activities less cash purchases of property and equipment, including proceeds from sales of tower sites and proceeds related to beneficial interests in securitization transactions and less cash payments for debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs. Free Cash Flow is utilized by T-Mobile’s management, investors, and analysts to evaluate cash available to pay debt and provide further investment in the business. The reconciliation of Free Cash Flow to net cash provided by operating activities is detailed in the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Financial Measures schedule.
11.Net debt - Short-term debt, short-term debt to affiliates, long-term debt, and long-term debt (excluding tower obligations) to affiliates, short-term financing lease liabilities and financing lease liabilities, less cash and cash equivalents.
12.Merger-related costs include:
•Integration costs to achieve efficiencies in network, retail, information technology and back office operations and the impact of legal matters assumed as part of the Merger;
•Restructuring costs, including severance, store rationalization and network decommissioning; and
•Transaction costs, including legal and professional services related to the completion of the Merger and the acquisitions of affiliates.
