CHICAGO, Nov. 3, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --
As previously announced, UScellular will hold a teleconference on November 4, 2022, at 9:00 a.m. CDT. Listen to the call live via the Events & Presentations page ofinvestors.uscellular.com.
United States Cellular Corporation (NYSE:USM) reported total operating revenues of $1,083 million for the third quarter of 2022, versus $1,016 million for the same period one year ago. Service revenues totaled $781 million, versus $788 million for the same period one year ago. Net income (loss) attributable to UScellular shareholders and related diluted earnings (loss) per share were $(12) million and $(0.15), respectively, for the third quarter of 2022 compared to $34 million and $0.38, respectively, in the same period one year ago.
"While postpaid subscriber growth remains challenging, we are intensely focused on changing the trajectory," said Laurent Therivel, UScellular President and CEO. "I am encouraged that recent offers are beginning to generate significant upgrade volumes which should have a positive impact on churn in future periods.
"UScellular continues to make progress on its long-term strategic priorities while reporting another strong quarter of ARPU growth. And we are seeing continued momentum in a number of growth areas of the business, including our tower portfolio and fixed wireless.
"I'm impressed with the hard work of our associates and their commitment to keeping our customers connected. I'd like to thank all of them for their contributions this quarter."

UScellular's current estimates of full-year 2022 results are shown below. Such estimates represent management's view as of November 3, 2022 and should not be assumed to be current as of any future date.

The following table reconciles EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted OIBDA to the corresponding GAAP measures, Net income or Income before income taxes. In providing 2022 estimated results, UScellular has not completed the below reconciliation to Net income because it does not provide guidance for income taxes. Although potentially significant, UScellular believes that the impact of income taxes cannot be reasonably predicted; therefore, UScellular is unable to provide such guidance.

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. UScellular does not intend to imply that any such items set forth in the reconciliation above are non-recurring, 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 UScellular's operating results before significant recurring non-cash charges, gains and losses, and other items as presented above as they provide additional relevant and useful information to investors and other users of UScellular's 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, and 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. Additional information and reconciliations related to Non-GAAP financial measures for September 30, 2022, can be found on UScellular's website at investors.uscellular.com.
