T-Mobile US, Inc. represents a reduce based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
T-Mobile US, Inc. receives a Reduce rating from our analysis, with a composite score of 46.9/100 and 2 out of 5 stars, ranking #2509 out of 7,333 stocks. TMUS's factor profile shows weakness across multiple dimensions, suggesting the stock may underperform going forward. Existing holders may want to consider trimming positions or tightening stop-losses.
With a quality score of 54/100, TMUS shows adequate but unremarkable business quality. The company reports a return on equity of 20.2% (sector avg: 11.9%), gross margins of 65.0% (sector avg: 52.6%), net margins of 14.2% (sector avg: 7.7%). This suggests the company generates acceptable returns but may lack the competitive positioning or operational efficiency to stand out from peers.
With a value score of 42/100, TMUS appears somewhat expensive relative to its fundamentals. Key valuation metrics include a P/E ratio of 19.87x, an EV/EBITDA of 16.74x, a P/B ratio of 4.01x. Investors paying a premium here are likely betting on above-average growth or margin expansion to justify current prices.
T-Mobile US, Inc.'s investment score of 36/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 11.1% vs. a sector average of 4.2% and a return on assets of 5.5% (sector: 3.2%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.
T-Mobile US, Inc. is experiencing notably weak momentum with a score of just 16/100. The stock has underperformed its peers and is trending below major moving averages. Revenue growth stands at 11.1% year-over-year, while a beta of 0.20 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. While deep momentum weakness can occasionally present value opportunities, it often reflects deteriorating fundamentals or structural headwinds that may persist.
TMUS shows good financial stability with a score of 67/100. Key stability metrics include a beta of 0.20 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 146.00x (sector avg: 1.3x). This suggests manageable leverage and moderate price volatility, making it appropriate for investors seeking a balance between growth potential and capital preservation.
TMUS carries a short interest score of 77/100, indicating moderate short selling activity. This is a neutral reading — not enough to signal systemic bearishness, but worth monitoring. Specific risk factors include elevated leverage (D/E: 146.00x). At $268.1B market cap (mega-cap), T-Mobile US, Inc. offers reasonable institutional liquidity.
TMUS offers a modest dividend yield of 1.5%. This compares to a sector average dividend yield of 1.4%. While the income contribution is relatively small, even a small dividend signals management's commitment to shareholder returns and can serve as a signal of financial discipline.
T-Mobile US, Inc. is a mega-cap company in the Transportation, Communications, Electric, Gas, And Sanitary Services sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #2509 of 7,333 overall (66th percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of 20.2% exceeding the 11.9% sector median and operating margins of 23.0% above the 14.8% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Transportation, Communications, Electric, Gas, And Sanitary Services peers.
While TMUS currently exhibits a REDUCE profile, superior opportunities exist within the TRANSPORTATION, COMMUNICATIONS, ELECTRIC, GAS, AND SANITARY SERVICES sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.

The article predicts that Verizon Communications will be removed from the Dow Jones Industrial Average in 2026 and replaced by Alphabet (Google).

With 59% of S&P 500 companies reported, Q4 2025 shows 13% EPS growth and 8.8% revenue growth.
