T-Mobile stock (TMUS) drops into MLK Day break as investors eye fee change and Feb. 11 update

New York, January 19, 2026, 17:00 EST — Market closed

T-Mobile US, Inc. shares dropped $4.38, or 2.3%, ending Friday at $186.32.

U.S. stock markets are closed Monday in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, pushing telecom stocks to recalibrate on Tuesday. For T-Mobile, the upcoming week hinges less on price action and more on management’s announcements — and the impact on customer bills. (New York Stock Exchange)

T-Mobile announced it will release its fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 results on Feb. 11, hosting a live event in New York for analysts and investors. CEO Srini Gopalan, along with other executives, is set to provide updated financial targets for 2026 and 2027, the company said. (T-Mobile)

T-Mobile has pushed price aggressively this January, offering a limited-time “Better Value” family plan starting at $140 a month for three lines with AutoPay. The carrier positions it as a cost-saving alternative to AT&T and Verizon. “Families are looking for ways to save and get more value from the services they rely on every day, especially wireless,” said Mike Katz, T-Mobile’s chief business and product officer.

T-Mobile’s Regulatory Programs and Telecommunications Recovery Fee will increase this week, according to its support pages. Starting Jan. 21, the fee jumps to $4.49 per voice line, up from $3.99, and $2.10 per mobile internet line, rising from $1.60. (T-Mobile)

T-Mobile has been highlighting its network performance following a J.D. Power wireless survey that named it the top-rated carrier in five out of six U.S. regions, the company said on Jan. 15. “This recognition is incredibly meaningful because it comes directly from customers,” said John Saw, T-Mobile’s president and chief technology officer.

T-Mobile USA recently completed a $2 billion senior notes offering, according to an SEC filing. The deal breaks down into $1.15 billion maturing in 2036 and $850 million due in 2056. The company plans to use the funds primarily to refinance existing debt and cover general corporate expenses. (CloudFront)

T-Mobile’s drop on Friday was steeper than its rivals’. Verizon ended down roughly 1.1%, while AT&T slipped about 1.0%, according to their latest closing prices.

Yet, the move cuts both ways. Winning subscribers through higher prices can tighten margins if promotions become widespread. On the flip side, any backlash against fees risks pushing churn rates up — the pace at which customers quit.

Feb. 11 is the next key date, with T-Mobile set to hold its earnings call and Capital Markets Day update at 8:30 a.m. ET. Traders will also be eyeing the initial market reaction to the Jan. 21 fee change as the stock resumes trading on Tuesday. (T Mobile)
