At the Citi conference, T-Mobile unveiled an expanded growth plan and expects mid-single-digit percent midterm growth in service revenues with a disproportionate rise in EBITDA and free cash flow. Chief Financial Officer Peter Osvaldik announced he will step down in mid-2025; Jessica Uhl will succeed him. The company reported market share gains in mobile and broadband, highlighted synergies from the UScellular acquisition of about $1.2 billion in the second year, and does not view satellite providers like Starlink as a direct threat.
