Sprint Reports Results for First Fiscal Quarter of 2014
OVERLAND PARK, Kan. --(Business Wire)--
Sprint Corporation (NYSE:S) today reported operating results for
the first fiscal quarter of 2014, including net income of $23 million,
the best performance in almost seven years when excluding the non-cash
transaction-related impacts from last year, and consolidated operating
income of $519 million, the highest in more than seven years.
"We reached several key milestones for the company this quarter,
including largely completing a multi-year project to upgrade our core 3G
and voice network, expanding 4G LTE coverage to approximately 254
million people and launching nationwide availability of HD Voice," said
Dan Hesse, Sprint CEO. "Our complete network replacement impacted the
network experience, so we lost customers last quarter. To improve
customer confidence given our recent network build progress, we launched
the Sprint Satisfaction Guarantee, which invites customers to experience
our new and improved network and enjoy the value of our Sprint Framily
plans."
Adjusted EBITDA* Shows Solid Year-Over-Year Growth
Adjusted EBITDA* of $1.83 billion grew 30 percent over the prior year
period and Adjusted EBITDA* margin of nearly 24 percent was the
company's best in six years. Wireless Adjusted EBITDA* of $1.8 billion
increased nearly 40 percent from the prior year period, driven mostly by
lower expenses across several areas of the business, partially offset by
declining wireless service revenues. Lower postpaid subsidy costs
associated with impacts of the Sprint Easy Pay installment billing plan
and device sales mix as well as lower customer care and cost of service
expenses all contributed to year-over-year growth in Wireless Adjusted
EBITDA* of nearly $500 million.
Sprint Platform Subscriber Loss Improves
The Sprint platform reported a net loss of 220,000 customers in the
quarter, compared to a net loss of 383,000 customers last quarter and
520,000 customers in the prior year period. Sprint platform postpaid net
losses of 181,000 during the quarter were largely due to expected
elevated churn levels related to service disruption associated with the
company's ongoing network overhaul. However, Sprint platform postpaid
gross additions grew by 16 percent compared to the year-ago quarter, and
retail smartphone sales were nearly 5 million, representing a record 87
percent of total retail handset device sales in the quarter. Sprint
platform prepaid net loss of 542,000 customers was primarily caused by
the timing of the annual Lifeline program recertification process that
impacted the Assurance Wireless® subscriber base. Sprint
added 503,000 wholesale and affiliate customers during the quarter. The
Sprint platform served over 53 million subscribers at the end of the
quarter.
Network Deployment Reaches Key Milestones
Sprint's replacement of its entire 3G and voice network, one of the most
complex network upgrades in history, is largely complete and network
performance metrics continue to improve. Sprint also hit its mid-year
target for 4G LTE coverage, as the company now covers approximately 254
million people in 488 cities across the country including Pittsburgh and
Buffalo, N.Y., which launched today.
Sprint HD Voice service is also now available nationwide and represents
the new Sprint standard for crystal-clear voice calls. Sprint's HD Voice
provides fuller, more natural-sounding voice, plus noise-cancelling
technology that virtually eliminates background noise from places like
busy roads or crowded restaurants1. Over 16 million customers
currently have HD Voice-enabled devices.
The deployment of Sprint Spark™, an innovative combination of advanced
network and device technology that leverages the company's 800MHz,
1.9GHz and 2.5GHz spectrum, continues to progress and is now available
in 27 markets across the country. Twenty-two Sprint Spark-capable
devices are currently available, including the recently launched Samsung
Galaxy S® 5 Sport, LG G3, and HTC One (M8) Harman/Kardon®
edition.
Sprint Satisfaction Guarantee Demonstrates Confidence in America's
Newest Network
In June, the company announced the Sprint Satisfaction Guarantee,
providing wireless users a worry-free experience of Sprint's improved
network, exclusive Framily plan and unique services. If customers aren't
completely satisfied with the Sprint experience within the first 30
days, Sprint will refund the cost of their device and waive all service
and activation charges.
Sprint Earns Third-Party Recognition for Customer Experience,
Innovation and Corporate Responsibility
According to results from the 2014 American Customer Satisfaction Index
released in May, Sprint is the most improved U.S. company in customer
satisfaction, across all 43 industries, over the last six years.
Additionally, Light Reading recognized Sprint with a 2014 Leading
Lights Award in the category of Most Innovative 4G Service for Sprint
Spark. Sprint was also the winner of the Informa Telecoms & Media MVNO's
Industry Awards Best Wholesale Operator for the second consecutive year.
Sprint also received multiple awards for its corporate responsibility
efforts during the quarter. Sprint was recognized by the Department of
Energy for achievements in the Better Buildings Challenge for energy
reduction, and the Environmental Protection Agency recognized Sprint
with the WasteWise National Partner of the Year Award for Very Large
Companies for diverting solid waste from landfills. Additionally, Sprint
received the VITA Achievement Award for Environmental Sustainability
from the Wireless Foundation.
Forecast
The company continues to expect calendar 2014 Adjusted EBITDA* to be
between $6.7 billion and $6.9 billion.

ARPU is calculated by dividing service revenue by the sum of the
average number of subscribers in the applicable service category.
Changes in average monthly service revenue reflect subscribers for
either the postpaid or prepaid service category who change rate
plans, the level of voice and data usage, the amount of service
credits which are offered to subscribers, plus the net effect of
average monthly revenue generated by new subscribers and
deactivating subscribers.

have combined results of operations and cash flows for the
Predecessor and Successor periods for the three-month period ended
June 30, 2013. (See Financial Measures for further information)

and Clearwire in July 2013 who had not deactivated or been
recaptured on the Sprint platform. During the quarter-to-date June
30, 2014 period, the Sprint platform subscriber results included
approximately 535,000 tablet net adds, which generate a
significantly lower ARPU than other postpaid subscribers.

*FINANCIAL MEASURES
On July 9, 2013, Sprint Communications, Inc. (formerly Sprint Nextel
Corporation) completed its acquisition of Clearwire. On July 10, 2013 we
consummated the SoftBank Merger with Starburst II, which immediately
changed its name to Sprint Corporation (now referred to as the Company
or Sprint). As a result of these transactions, the assets and
liabilities of Sprint Communications, Inc. and Clearwire were adjusted
to fair value on the respective closing dates. The Company's financial
statement presentations herein distinguish between a predecessor period
relating to Sprint Communications, Inc. for periods prior to the
SoftBank Merger (Predecessor) and a successor period (Successor). The
Successor information represents Sprint Corporation, which includes the
activity and accounts of Sprint Communications, Inc. as of and for the
three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014. The accounts
and activity for the successor periods from October 5, 2012 (date of
inception) to December 31, 2012 and from January 1, 2013 to July 10,
2013 consist of the activity of Starburst II prior to the close of the
SoftBank Merger. The Predecessor information contained herein represents
the historical basis of presentation for Sprint Communications, Inc. for
all periods prior to the SoftBank Merger date on July 10, 2013. As a
result of the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at
fair value at the time of the SoftBank Merger and Clearwire Acquisition,
the financial statements for the successor period are presented on a
measurement basis different than the predecessor period, which was
Sprint Communication Inc.'s historical cost, and are, therefore, not
comparable.
In order to present financial results in a way that offers investors a
more meaningful calendar period-to-period comparison, we have combined
the current and prior year results of operations for the predecessor
with successor results of operations on an unaudited combined basis. The
combined information for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 does
not purport to represent what our consolidated results of operations
would have been if the acquisition had occurred as of the beginning of
2013.
Sprint provides financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP
and adjusted GAAP (non-GAAP). The non-GAAP financial measures reflect
industry conventions, or standard measures of liquidity, profitability
or performance commonly used by the investment community for
comparability purposes. These measurements should be considered in
addition to, but not as a substitute for, financial information prepared
in accordance with GAAP. Other than the use of non-GAAP combined results
as described above, we have defined below each of the non-GAAP measures
we use, but these measures may not be synonymous to similar measurement
terms used by other companies.
Sprint provides reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures in its
financial reporting. Because Sprint does not predict special items that
might occur in the future, and our forecasts are developed at a level of
detail different than that used to prepare GAAP-based financial
measures, Sprint does not provide reconciliations to GAAP of its
forward-looking financial measures.
The measures used in this release include the following:
EBITDA is operating income/(loss) before depreciation and
amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA excluding
severance, exit costs, and other special items. Adjusted EBITDA Margin
represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by non-equipment net operating
revenues for Wireless and Adjusted EBITDA divided by net operating
revenues for Wireline. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA Margin provide useful information to investors because they are
an indicator of the strength and performance of our ongoing business
operations, including our ability to fund discretionary spending such as
capital expenditures, spectrum acquisitions and other investments and
our ability to incur and service debt. While depreciation and
amortization are considered operating costs under GAAP, these expenses
primarily represent non-cash current period costs associated with the
use of long-lived tangible and definite-lived intangible assets.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are calculations commonly
used as a basis for investors, analysts and credit rating agencies to
evaluate and compare the periodic and future operating performance and
value of companies within the telecommunications industry.
Free Cash Flow is the cash provided by operating activities less
the cash used in investing activities other than short-term investments,
including changes in restricted cash, if any, and amounts included as
investments in Clearwire and Sprint Communications, Inc. during the
period, if applicable. We believe that Free Cash Flow provides useful
information to investors, analysts and our management about the cash
generated by our core operations after interest and dividends, if any,
and our ability to fund scheduled debt maturities and other financing
activities, including discretionary refinancing and retirement of debt
and purchase or sale of investments.
Net Debt is consolidated debt, including current maturities, less
cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and, if any,
restricted cash. We believe that Net Debt provides useful information to
investors, analysts and credit rating agencies about the capacity of the
company to reduce the debt load and improve its capital structure.
SAFE HARBOR
This release includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of
the securities laws. The words "may," "could," "should," "estimate,"
"project," "forecast," "intend," "expect," "anticipate," "believe,"
"target," "plan," "providing guidance," and similar expressions are
intended to identify information that is not historical in nature. All
statements that address operating performance, events or developments
that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future - including
statements relating to our network, subscriber growth, and liquidity,
and statements expressing general views about future operating results -
are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are estimates
and projections reflecting management's judgment based on currently
available information and involve a number of risks and uncertainties
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
suggested by the forward-looking statements. With respect to these
forward-looking statements, management has made assumptions regarding,
among other things, the ability to operationalize the anticipated
benefits from the SoftBank, Clearwire and U.S. Cellular transactions,
the development and deployment of new technologies; efficiencies and
cost savings of new technologies and services; customer and network
usage; customer growth and retention; service, speed, coverage and
quality; availability of devices; the timing of various events and the
economic environment. Sprint believes these forward-looking statements
are reasonable; however, you should not place undue reliance on
forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations and
speak only as of the date when made. Sprint undertakes no obligation to
publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as
required by law. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to
certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially from our company's historical experience and our
present expectations or projections. Factors that might cause such
differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in Sprint
Corporation's Transition Report on Form 10-K for the period ended March
31, 2014. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or
identify all such factors. Consequently, you should not consider any
such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.
