Disruption at the FCC has delayed T-Mobile's acquisition of US Cellular's wireless operation, with closure now likely in August or September 2025 after a new commissioner is sworn in. I remain bullish on TDS preferreds, especially Series VV, due to their steep discount to liquidation value and attractive 8.45% yield on cost. The USM sale will reduce TDS's debt and boost its cash position, serving as a catalyst for the preferreds and transforming the company's balance sheet.
Telephone and Data Systems preferred stock delivered an 83% total return in under two years, driven by a pending $4.4B UScellular asset sale to T-Mobile. The asset sale will significantly reduce TDS's debt and strengthen its balance sheet, improving preferred dividend safety but shrinking the company. Despite improved prospects, TDS still faces high debt and ongoing losses, making the preferred dividend less than fully secure.
