T-Mobile Falls 18.2% in 3 Months as Risks Cloud a Potential Rebound

T-Mobile (TMUS) shares declined 18.2% over three months despite reporting 33.6% earnings growth and 7.4% revenue increase to $23.58 billion. While postpaid service revenues rose 9.3%, the company faced headwinds from slower account growth (274,000 vs. 396,000 year-over-year), rising churn (1.09% vs. 0.97%), and elevated device costs. The stock's discounted valuation (2.49X EV/Sales vs. 5-year median of 3.17X) supports a potential rebound, but substantial debt ($77.3 billion long-term) and competitive pressures limit upside. TMUS carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) rating.
