T-Mobile reported a significant boost in its first-quarter profit, rising by 24 percent to $3 billion, fuelled by a surge in demand for its postpaid services and a growing subscriber base
For the quarter ending March 31, 2025, the U.S. telecom giant posted service revenues of $16.9 billion, marking a five percent year-over-year increase. Postpaid service revenues, a key metric for customer retention and growth, saw an eight percent jump to $13.6 billion.
“T-Mobile reported a strong financial performance for Q1 2025, with several key metrics reaching record levels: Service Revenues—$16.9bn, a five percent increase year-over-year. Postpaid Service Revenues—$13.6b, an eight percent increase year-over-year. Net Income—$3.0bn, a 24 percent increase year-over-year,”stated the company’s financial report.
Strong subscriber growth, network quality drive T-mobile’s Q1 revenue growth
T-Mobile credited the outcomes to strong customer growth and investments in customer experience and network quality, especially its 5G network.
Core adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation grew 8% to $8.3 billion, while diluted earnings per share rose 29 percent to $2.58.
According to the company, which is among the biggest wireless carriers in the US, the outcomes demonstrate its ability to compete in a market where AT&T and Verizon are rivals.
CEO Sievert’s remarks
CEO of T-Mobile, Mike Sievert, commented on the results: “T-Mobile delivered big yet again with outstanding Q1 results across wireless and broadband.’
“This includes our best-ever Q1 total postpaid customer gross and net additions—proof that our consistent customer-first focus has put us in the best position to succeed in this dynamic environment,” he emphasised.
