In context

xpand our broadband base. Our guidance reflects the beginning of our transformation. For the first time, we're guiding to our consolidated postpaid phone net adds. We expect to deliver approximately 2 to 3x of 2025 total, targeting a range of 750,000 to 1 million postpaid phone net adds in 2026. Our 2026 financial guidance includes Frontier from January 20, the closing date of the acquisition. As we work towards driving sustainable and disciplined volume-based revenue growth, we anticipate that 2026 will be a transitional year for revenue as we lap prior year price increases, absorb promotional amortization and await the benefits from churn reduction and increased volumes. We are guiding to 2% to 3% mobility and broadband service revenue growth, which equates to approximately $93 billion. We expect wireless service revenue growth to be approximately flat in 2026. Having broadband in our service revenue guidance reflects the importance of both mobility and broadband as key growth drivers in the future. We have streamlined our organizational structure and are conducting a rigorous bottoms-up review of our entire cost base. Over the last 100 days, we have implemented several actions that would deliver multibillion-dollar benefits in 2026, including a reduction in workforce as well as asset and business rationalization efforts. The work on our cost structure will continue in 2026 as we simplify operations, deliver Frontier synergies and exit low-margin businesses. As Dan mentioned, we have line of sight to delivering $5 billion of operating expense savings in 2026. We are reinvesting a portion of these savings to drive a higher quality revenue profile
