"The TDS Family of Companies continues to execute on its multi-year strategies, while focusing intensely on cost containment," said LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr., TDS President and CEO. "UScellular has begun deploying mid-band 5G spectrum, and TDS Telecom is making solid progress on its fiber program.
"At UScellular, postpaid handset subscriber trends improved slightly year-over-year driven by improvements in churn, however, subscriber results remained challenged overall as gross additions declined. Two of UScellular's growth areas, fixed wireless and the tower portfolio, produced year-over-year double-digit increases in gross additions and revenues, respectively. In July, UScellular surpassed 100,000 fixed wireless customers – a key milestone as momentum for the product continues.
"TDS Telecom grew its residential revenue per connection and increased total residential broadband connections for the quarter. TDS Telecom continues to execute its broadband growth strategy through its multi-year fiber expansion program."
Recent Development: On August 4, 2023, TDS and UScellular announced a process to explore a range of strategic alternatives for UScellular.

The following tables reconcile EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted OIBDA to the corresponding GAAP measures, Net income or Income before income taxes. In providing 2023 estimated results, TDS has not completed the below reconciliation to Net income because it does not provide guidance for income taxes. Although potentially significant, TDS believes that the impact of income taxes cannot be reasonably predicted; therefore, TDS is unable to provide such guidance.
