CHICAGO, Feb. 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- As previously announced, TDS will hold a teleconference Feb. 26, 2014 at 9:30 a.m. CST. Interested parties may listen to the call live via the Events & Presentations page of investors.teldta.com.
Telephone and Data Systems, Inc. (NYSE:TDS) reported operating revenues of $1,183.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2013, versus $1,346.2 million for the comparable period one year ago. Net loss attributable to TDS shareholders and related diluted loss per share were $6.1 million and $0.06 respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to $41.9 million and $0.39, respectively, in the comparable period one year ago.
Year-over-year comparisons are affected by U.S. Cellular's Divestiture Transaction, the deconsolidation of certain U.S. Cellular partnerships, and acquisitions at TDS Telecom, in 2013.
"Throughout the year, our businesses took strategic actions to compete more effectively and position us well for the future, and these actions impacted our financial results," said LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr., TDS president and CEO. "At U.S. Cellular, we brought 4G LTE speeds and quality to nearly 90 percent of our customers, which has resulted in strong growth in smartphone adoption and data use. TDS Telecom brought high-speed broadband and TDS TV to more markets, and is moving aggressively to increase residential and commercial penetration in our cable markets.
"At U.S. Cellular, we expect our competitive devices, plans, and pricing to help us attract and retain customers, though service issues related to our recent billing system conversion continue to impact customer churn. U.S. Cellular is driving ongoing growth in smartphone penetration and data use through our high-quality nationwide network and comprehensive device portfolio. Customer response to our Apple device offerings and shared data plans has been very positive, and we expect that to continue. We have very strong 4G LTE coverage in our markets and we are competing aggressively with our outstanding network and customer experiences.
"TDS Telecom brought high-speed broadband and TDS TV services to more markets in 2013, and maintained customer loyalty through service bundling. Commercial managedIP connections increased substantially, and TDS Telecom began introducing new services in our cable markets. Cable is an attractive growth opportunity, and we plan to build our business through additional acquisitions in 2014. We brought our five hosted and managed services businesses together as OneNeck IT Solutions to provide end-to-end solutions and to drive faster growth in recurring revenues from mid-market commercial customers."
2014 Estimated Results
U.S. Cellular capital expenditures for 2014 are expected to be approximately $640 million, down from $738 million in 2013. U.S. Cellular is not providing guidance for 2014 revenues and profitability at this time due to a number of factors, which involve significant uncertainty and affect U.S. Cellular's ability to estimate future results with reasonable confidence. Such factors include (i) the unprecedented number of actions related to pricing of service plans and devices, including device financing, announced by competitors in recent weeks, for which U.S. Cellular is evaluating and determining its response; and (ii) continuing elevated churn due, at least in part, to issues arising from U.S. Cellular's billing system implementation in the second half of 2013. Although U.S. Cellular expects churn to improve over the next several months, the extent and timing of the improvement is uncertain.
TDS Telecom estimates for full-year 2014 results are shown below. Such estimates represent management's view as of Feb. 26, 2014. Such forward-looking statements should not be assumed to be current as of any future date. TDS undertakes no duty to update such information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. There can be no assurance that final results will not differ materially from such estimated results.

Adjusted income before income taxes is defined as income before income taxes, adjusted for the items set forth in the reconciliation below. Adjusted income before income taxes excludes these items in order to show operating results on a more comparable basis from period to period. In addition, TDS may exclude other items from adjusted income before income taxes if such items help reflect operating results on a more comparable basis. TDS does not intend to imply that any such amounts that are excluded are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual; such amounts may occur in the future. Adjusted income before income taxes is not a measure of financial performance under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States ("GAAP") and should not be considered as an alternative to income before income taxes as an indicator of the company's operating performance or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of cash flows or as a measure of liquidity. TDS believes adjusted income before income taxes is a useful measure of TDS' operating results before significant recurring non-cash charges, discrete gains and losses, and financing charges (interest expense). The following table provides a reconciliation of income (loss) before income taxes to adjusted income before income taxes for 2014 estimated results: |

Adjusted operating revenues is defined as operating revenues, excluding U.S. Cellular equipment sales revenues. U.S. Cellular equipment sales revenues are excluded from adjusted operating revenues since U.S. Cellular equipment is generally sold at a net loss, and such net loss that results from U.S. Cellular equipment sales revenues less U.S. Cellular cost of equipment sold is viewed as a cost of earning service revenues for purposes of assessing business results. For purposes of developing this guidance, TDS does not calculate an estimate of U.S. Cellular equipment sales revenues. TDS believes this measure provides useful information to investors regarding TDS' results of operations. Adjusted operating revenues is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to operating revenues as an indicator of the company's operating performance.
