T-Mobile US is expected to report third quarter 2026 earnings on Wednesday, 28 October 2026, before the market opens. MarketBeat lists consensus earnings of 2.89 dollars per share and consensus revenue of 23.15 billion dollars for the quarter. The call with analysts is scheduled for 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the same day. MarketBeat notes that the date is estimated from past reporting schedules and may change once the company confirms it. The figures below are consensus estimates, not reported results.

The T-Mobile consensus points to growth from a year earlier. Prior year earnings were 2.41 dollars per share and prior year revenue was 21.96 billion dollars, according to MarketBeat. That implies expected earnings growth of 19.9% and expected revenue growth of 5.4%. The prior quarter gives a nearer comparison. In the second quarter of 2026, T-Mobile reported earnings of 2.99 dollars per share, beating the consensus by 0.40 dollars, on revenue of 22.79 billion dollars.

MarketBeat records an earnings beat in each of the last eight quarters. That run will be tested against the third quarter estimates. A T-Mobile result above 2.89 dollars per share would extend the run to nine quarters. A result below that figure would end it. Revenue will be judged against the 23.15 billion dollar estimate and against the 21.96 billion dollars reported a year earlier.

T-Mobile service revenue and subscriber outlook

A separate earnings preview from Tickeron puts the consensus range at about 2.86 dollars to 2.89 dollars per share, with total revenue near 23.1 billion dollars. That preview cites company guidance for third quarter service revenue of about 19.3 billion dollars, up roughly 6% from a year earlier. It also cites core adjusted EBITDA of about 9.4 billion dollars, up about 8%. EBITDA is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation.

The same preview cites expected postpaid net account additions of about 250,000 for the quarter. That figure is below the 277,000 added in the second quarter. The preview links the slower pace to a rate plan modernisation programme that has weighed on gross additions and retention for a time. Broadband and fibre growth and the UScellular integration are also part of the quarter, according to the preview. Those areas will be watched for signs of how the company is balancing subscriber growth with spending discipline.

T-Mobile results and peer comparison

Verizon reported third quarter results on 26 October 2026, two days before the expected T-Mobile date. Verizon reported earnings of 1.31 dollars per share, above a consensus estimate of 1.27 dollars, on revenue of 34.31 billion dollars, below a consensus estimate of 34.77 billion dollars, according to MarketBeat comparison data. That mixed peer result shows that beating on earnings does not guarantee a revenue beat in the same quarter. Investors will apply the same split test to the T-Mobile figures.

Market data cited in recent coverage put the market capitalisation of T-Mobile at about 165 billion dollars as of 21 October 2026. A separate market report listed a 52 week range of 147.90 dollars to 227.89 dollars for the stock as of the same date. Those figures are dated snapshots, not current prices, and they will move with the earnings result and the wider market.

What to watch on the call

The 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time call will give management a chance to explain the quarter and to update guidance. Analysts will listen for the service revenue figure, postpaid net additions, and any change to the full year outlook. They will also listen for comments on broadband and fibre, on the UScellular integration, and on capital spending. MarketBeat says it will stream the call audio and publish a transcript as soon as possible on the announcement date.

The T-Mobile earnings release itself will arrive before the market opens, so traders will have the headline earnings and revenue figures before the call. The call adds context on why the figures landed where they did. A beat on earnings with weak subscriber additions would read differently from a beat driven by subscriber growth. A revenue miss with strong service revenue would also read differently from a broad shortfall.

Until the release, the consensus figures stand as the benchmark. Earnings of 2.89 dollars per share, revenue of 23.15 billion dollars, and a call at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on 28 October 2026 are the numbers to compare against the reported results. The second quarter beat, the eight quarter beat run, and the year earlier figures of 2.41 dollars per share and 21.96 billion dollars form the background for that comparison.
