CHICAGO –Aug. 8, 2011 — Telephone and Data Systems, Inc. [NYSE:TDS, TDS.S] reported operating revenues of $1,279.6 million for the second quarter of 2011, an increase of 4 percent from $1,232.2 million in the comparable period one year ago. Net income attributable to TDS shareholders and related diluted earnings per share were $91.1 million and $0.87, respectively, for the second quarter of 2011, compared to $40.3 million and $0.38, respectively, in the comparable period one year ago.
“Attracting more new customers is a high priority for U.S. Cellular and TDS Telecom and we are devoting substantial effort to this challenge,” said LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr., TDS president and CEO. “Both companies are focused on improving and successfully executing marketing and sales strategies to compete more effectively.
“U.S. Cellular continued to raise average revenue per customer by increasing smartphone penetration and adoption of data plans. Profitability improved in the quarter, due to a strong increase in inbound roaming revenue and expense control, which helped to balance smartphone subsidies and promotional programs, with fewer gross additions contributing to lower sales and marketing experience.
“TDS Telecom had a solid quarter, with stable operating revenues and higher operating income. The company continued to grow ILEC data revenues through increases in hosted and managed services revenues and high-speed data customers. We broke ground on the first of 44 broadband expansion stimulus projects to bring high-speed Internet access to more customers in rural areas. TDS Telecom’s aggressive commercial sales strategy helped the company achieve a strong year-over-year increase in managedIP stations. And in early July, we expanded our hosted and managed services business significantly with the acquisition of OneNeck IT Services Corporation.
“As announced separately today, to simplify our capital structure, improve market liquidity and provide greater financial flexibility, TDS is proposing to reclassify its outstanding Special Common Shares into Common Shares on a one-for-one basis, while retaining the controlling shareholder vote. We will hold a special shareholder meeting later this year to vote on the proposed amendments.”
Second quarter transactions
U.S. Cellular paid $24.6 million in cash to purchase the remaining interest in a wireless business in which it previously held a non-controlling interest. As a result, the company recorded a $13.4 million pre-tax gain on investments.
Additionally U.S. Cellular sold $342 million of 6.95 percent senior notes and redeemed $330 million of its 7.5 percent senior notes. The redemption required U.S. Cellular to write-off $8.2 million of previously capitalized debt issuance costs related to the 7.5 percent senior notes. The $8.2 million was recorded in interest expense.
Also in the quarter, TDS redeemed $282.5 million of 7.6 percent Series A notes. This redemption required TDS to write-off $7.2 million of previously capitalized debt issuance costs, which was recorded in interest expense.
Guidance for year ending Dec. 31, 2011
Guidance for the year ending Dec. 31, 2011 as of Aug. 8, 2011 is provided below, compared to the previous guidance provided on May 6, 2011. 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 this guidance.

(1) The 2011 Estimated Results as disclosed in the TDS Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2011.
(2) Adjusted OIBDA is defined as operating income excluding the effects of: depreciation, amortization and accretion (OIBDA); the net gain or loss on asset disposals (if any); and the loss on impairment of assets (if any). This measure also may be commonly referred to by management as operating cash flow. This measure should not be confused with cash flows from operating activities, which is a component of the consolidated statement of cash flows.
(3) The 2011 Estimated Results do not include any estimate for losses on impairment of assets since these cannot be predicted.
(4) This guidance is based on U.S. Cellular’s current plans, which include a multi-year deployment of Long-term Evolution (“LTE”) technology commencing in 2011. As customer demand for data services increases, and competitive conditions in the wireless industry evolve, such as the rate of deployment of LTE technology by other carriers, the timing of U.S. Cellular’s deployment of LTE and the timing of other capital expenditures to support data usage could change. These factors could affect U.S. Cellular’s estimated capital expenditures and operating expenses in 2011.
(5) The capital expenditure guidance does not include federal grants of $105.1 million awarded to TDS Telecom through the Broadband Stimulus program under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act for 44 projects to be completed between 2011and 2013.

(3) Smartphones represent wireless devices which run on a Blackberry®, Windows Mobile, or Android operating system.
(4) Smartphone penetration is calculated by dividing postpaid customers on smartphone service plans by total postpaid customers.
(5) Includes net postpaid additions (losses) and net prepaid additions (losses).
(6) Total ARPU - Average monthly service revenue per customer includes retail service, inbound roaming and other service revenues and is calculated by dividing total service revenues by the number of months in the period and by the average total customers during the period.

Retail service revenues include revenues attributable to postpaid, prepaid and reseller customers.
(8) Postpaid ARPU - Average monthly revenue per postpaid customer is calculated by dividing total retail service revenues from postpaid customers by the number of months in the period and by the average postpaid customers during the period.

(1) Includes ILEC and CLEC intercompany eliminations.
(2) Consists of a non-reportable segment (Suttle-Straus), corporate operations and, intercompany eliminations between U.S. Cellular, TDS Telecom and corporate investments. Amounts in this column are presented only to reconcile to consolidated totals and may not otherwise be meaningful.
(3) Adjusted OIBDA is a segment measure reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance. Adjusted OIBDA is defined as operating income excluding the effects of: depreciation, amortization and accretion (OIBDA); the net gain or loss on asset disposals (if any); and the loss on impairment of assets (if any). This measure also may be commonly referred to by management as operating cash flow. This measure should not be confused with Cash flows from operating activities, which is a component of the Consolidated Statement of Cash flows. Adjusted OIBDA excludes the net gain or loss on asset disposals and loss on impairment of assets, if any, in order to show operating results on a more comparable basis from period to period. TDS does not intend to imply that any of such amounts that are excluded are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual, and accordingly, they may be incurred in the future. TDS believes this measure provides useful information to investors regarding TDS' financial condition and results of operations because it highlights certain key cash and non-cash items and their impacts on cash flows from operating activities.
(4) Adjusted OIBDA margin is defined as adjusted OIBDA divided by service revenues (U.S. Cellular) and operating revenues (TDS Telecom). Equipment revenues are excluded from the denominator of the U.S. Cellular calculation since equipment is generally sold at a net loss, and such net loss is included in adjusted OIBDA as a cost of earning service revenues for purposes of assessing business results. TDS believes that this calculation method is consistent with the method used by certain investors to assess U.S. Cellular’s business results. Adjusted OIBDA margin may also be commonly referred to by management as operating cash flow margin.
(5) Free cash flow is defined as cash flows from operating activities minus capital expenditures. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. TDS believes that free cash flow as reported by TDS may be useful to investors and other users of its financial information in evaluating the amount of cash generated by business operations, after consideration of capital expenditures.
