Array completes sale of select spectrum assets to Verizon for $1.0 billionJune 1, 2026 4:05 PM
PR Newswire (US) Board declares special dividend of $11.00 per shareCHICAGO, June 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Array Digital Infrastructure, Inc. (NYSE: AD) (ArraySM) today announced the successful closing of the previously announced agreement with Verizon (NYSE: VZ) to sell a portion of the Company's retained spectrum licenses for total consideration of $1.0 billion. Additionally, certain spectrum sales to T-Mobile totaling $168M, primarily related to 700MHz and 600MHz, were completed in May.These transactions further the objective announced on May 28, 2024, to opportunistically monetize remaining spectrum following the sale of the T-Mobile wireless operation which closed on August 1, 2025.Considering the closing of the Verizon and other transactions alongside current cash on hand, the Array Board of Directors has declared a special cash dividend of $11.00 per Common Share and Series A Common Share. The special dividend is payable on June 25, 2026, to shareholders of record on June 11, 2026. While future dividend declarations are subject to the Board's discretion, the Company at this time does not anticipate that any additional dividends will be paid during 2026. "We have made significant progress in our spectrum monetization efforts and are pleased with the value realized in this sale," said Anthony Carlson, Array President and CEO. "Further, as we have done with prior asset sale proceeds, we are returning value to our shareholders in the form of a special dividend." The declaration of this special dividend is unrelated to the special committee of the Array Board of Directors' evaluation of the non-binding proposal, dated May 7, 2026, from Telephone and Data Systems, Inc. (NYSE: TDS) ("TDS") to acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Array not currently owned by TDS, which was previously announced on May 8, 2026, and the special committee has not made any decision with respect to such proposal at this time.Note
Array currently expects that when 1099-DIVs are issued for 2026, this special dividend will be largely designated as an ordinary and qualified dividend, subject to the shareholder's holding period requirements.Advisors

1EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted OIBDA are defined as net income from continuing operations adjusted for the items set forth in the reconciliation above. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted OIBDA are not measures of financial performance under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (GAAP) and should not be considered as alternatives to Net income or Cash flows from operating activities, as indicators of cash flows or as measures of liquidity. TDS does not intend to imply that any such items set forth in the reconciliation above are infrequent or unusual; such items may occur in the future. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted OIBDA as measurements of profitability, and therefore reconciliations to Net income are deemed appropriate. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted OIBDA are useful measures of TDS' operating results before significant recurring non-cash charges, nonrecurring expenses, gains and losses, and other items as presented above as they provide additional relevant and useful information to investors and other users of TDS' financial data in evaluating the effectiveness of its operations and underlying business trends in a manner that is consistent with management's evaluation of business performance. Adjusted EBITDA shows adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion, gains and losses, while Adjusted OIBDA reduces this measure further to exclude Equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities and Interest and dividend income in order to more effectively show the performance of operating activities excluding investment activities.Conference Call Information

Telephone and Data Systems Announces Proposal to Acquire Public Shares of Array Digital InfrastructureMay 8, 2026 7:00 AM
PR Newswire (US) Proposed transaction aims to streamline corporate structure and enhance capital flexibility to support TDS' long-term growth CHICAGO, May 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Telephone and Data Systems, Inc. (NYSE: TDS) (the "Company" or "TDS") today announced that it has submitted a proposal to the Board of Directors of Array Digital Infrastructure, Inc. (NYSE: AD) ("Array") to acquire, by way of a merger, all of the outstanding common shares of Array that are not currently owned by TDS in an all-stock transaction.Under the terms of the proposal, each Array Common Share not owned by TDS would be exchanged for 0.86 of a TDS Common Share (the "Exchange Ratio"). The Exchange Ratio assumes that the previously-announced spectrum license sales identified in the TDS offer letter will have closed prior to the closing of the transaction contemplated by the proposal (the "Closing"). The Exchange Ratio further assumes that the Array Board, consistent with its treatment of net proceeds from prior spectrum sales, will have declared and paid a dividend of $10.40 per share (approximately $900 million in aggregate) to Array stockholders prior to the Closing. This Exchange Ratio reflects an at-market offer based, subject to the assumption described in the preceding paragraph, on yesterday's closing prices.The transaction is expected to qualify as a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes."As TDS continues its transformation, this proposal is the next step in executing our strategy, simplifying our corporate structure and enhancing our ability to invest in targeted areas of growth," said Walter Carlson, President and Chief Executive Officer of TDS. "Array has successfully transitioned to a tower-focused company, and we are committed to supporting its continued growth. By bringing Array fully under TDS' ownership, Array's stockholders would retain a significant interest in the tower business while gaining exposure to TDS' growing fiber business. We expect the transaction to eliminate duplicative corporate costs, streamline corporate governance, increase share liquidity, and strengthen our capital structure, providing greater flexibility to pursue strategic investments across all our businesses, including towers and fiber. We believe this transaction will position the combined company for long-term growth."As detailed in the proposal sent to Array, which will be filed with the SEC, the proposed transaction would be subject to the negotiation and execution of mutually acceptable definitive transaction documents. A special committee of independent and disinterested directors of the Array Board of Directors has been formed to evaluate this proposal. The terms of the transaction would require the review and recommendation by the special committee and the approval of the disinterested stockholders of Array by a majority of the votes cast by the disinterested stockholders. The transaction would also be subject to approval of TDS stockholders and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.TDS does not intend to sell or otherwise transfer its interest in Array and will not entertain any third-party offers for Array or its assets in lieu of its proposal. TDS continues to support Array's previously-disclosed intention to opportunistically monetize its remaining wireless spectrum.TDS First Quarter 2026 Earnings Results

IH Market News
Shares of Telephone and Data Systems, Inc. (NYSE: TDS) climbed over 5% in premarket trading Friday after the company delivered fourth-quarter results that exceeded Wall Street forecasts, closing what executives called a pivotal year for the business.For the quarter, TDS reported earnings per share of $0.32, comfortably above the consensus estimate of $0.09 — a $0.23 upside surprise. Revenue from continuing operations reached $330.7 million, beating expectations of $320.01 million and increasing from $295.3 million in the same period last year. Net income attributable to common shareholders from continuing operations totaled $39.2 million, compared with a loss in the prior-year quarter.For full-year 2025, consolidated operating revenue came in at $1.23 billion, down from $1.30 billion in 2024. However, profitability improved markedly, with net income attributable to common shareholders rising to $48.2 million from a loss of $141.4 million a year earlier.“2025 was a year of significant transformation for TDS,” said Walter Carlson, president and CEO. “We completed the largest transaction in our history with the sale of our wireless business, launched a new tower company now operating as Array, and ended the year with 1.06 million marketable fiber service addresses at TDS Telecom.”Over the course of the year, TDS finalized a $1.018 billion spectrum transaction with AT&T, distributed a $10.25 per share special dividend in February 2026, and repurchased 1.77 million shares for $67.4 million. TDS Telecom also expanded its fiber footprint by adding 140,000 new service addresses in 2025 and increased its long-term fiber target to 2.1 million addresses.Looking ahead, the company projected fiscal 2026 revenue in the range of $1.015 billion to $1.055 billion, below the $1.281 billion consensus estimate, as it continues to prioritize fiber buildout and strategic repositioning efforts.Telephone and Data Systems stock price

$1Numbers may not foot due to rounding. 1          EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted OIBDA are defined as net income adjusted for the items set forth in the reconciliation above. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted OIBDA are not measures of financial performance under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (GAAP) and should not be considered as alternatives to Net income or Cash flows from operating activities, as indicators of cash flows or as measures of liquidity. TDS does not intend to imply that any such items set forth in the reconciliation above are infrequent or unusual; such items may occur in the future. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted OIBDA as measurements of profitability, and therefore reconciliations to Net income are deemed appropriate. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted OIBDA are useful measures of TDS' operating results before significant recurring non-cash charges, nonrecurring expenses, gains and losses, and other items as presented above as they provide additional relevant and useful information to investors and other users of TDS' financial data in evaluating the effectiveness of its operations and underlying business trends in a manner that is consistent with management's evaluation of business performance. Adjusted EBITDA shows adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion, gains and losses while Adjusted OIBDA reduces this measure further to exclude Equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities and Interest and dividend income in order to more effectively show the performance of operating activities excluding investment activities. The table above reconciles EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted OIBDA to the corresponding GAAP measure, Net income or Income before income taxes.Conference Call Information

AFCF is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to Net income from continuing operations or as an indicator of cash flows.Management believes AFCF is a useful measure of Array's cash generated from operations and its noncontrolling investment interests. The following table reconciles AFCF to the corresponding GAAP measure, Net income from continuing operations. This measure is presented following the sale of Array's wireless operations to T-Mobile on August 1, 2025, at which time the primary business operations for Array changed from providing wireless communications services to a standalone tower company. Array modified its AFCF metric for the three months ended December 31, 2025 to adjust for cash taxes paid in the quarter, which management believes best reflects cash generated from operations and investments. Under the modified presentation, the comparative calculation of AFCF for the three months ended September 30, 2025 would have been $63.4 million.

TDS 4Q Profit Up 24%, US Cellular Net Edges Up But Co Loses Subscribers

Last Update: 2/24/2011 8:37:20 AM

DOW JONES NEWSWIRES

Telephone & Data Systems Inc.'s (TDS) fourth-quarter profit rose 24% as its U.S.
Cellular Corp.'s (USM) profit edged higher even as the carrier again lost
subscribers.

U.S. Cellular has been losing postpaid subscribers amid increasing competition in
a wireless industry nearly saturated with cellphones. Big carriers have continued
to add subscribers on the strength of marquee handsets.

TDS reported a profit of $14.5 million, or 14 cents a share, up from $11.7
million, or 11 cents a share, a year earlier. Revenue edged up 0.3% to $1.27
billion.

Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters most recently expected earnings of 22 cents on
$1.28 billion in revenue.

TDS's Madison, Wis.-based telecommunications business, TDS Telecom, saw revenue
rise 0.5% and profit fall 3.8%. Companywide, physical access lines fell 5.3% from
a year earlier and 1.8% from the prior quarter.

Meanwhile, U.S. Cellular posted a profit of $6.8 million, up from $6.6 million a
year earlier. Per-share earnings were flat at 8 cents. Revenue edged up 0.3% to
$1.06 billion.

Analysts most recently predicted earnings of 22 cents on $1.07 billion in
revenue.

The carrier, which operates in 26 states, said it lost a net 31,000 customers
during the period, compared with prior-year gains of 10,000. It ended 2010 with
about 6.1 million customers, 1.1% lower than a year earlier.

Retail average revenue per user rose to $47.41 from $47.07 and retail postpaid
churn--or turnover rate--improved to 1.5% from 1.6%.

Shares of TDS and U.S. Cellular closed Wednesday at $32.65 and $46.71,
respectively, and both were inactive premarket.
