Shares of 美国蜂窝 popped nearly 6% Tuesday after T-Mobile 宣布 that it plans to acquire most of the company, including the wireless operator's stores, some of its spectrum assets and its customers in a deal worth .4 billion.

The deal includes cash and up to billion of debt, according to a press release from T-Mobile. Up to 0 million of the deal's cash portion depends on certain financial and operating metrics being met between its signing and closing, according to a separate 新闻稿 from U.S. Cellular.

T-Mobile的股价在周二的交易日上涨了1%以上。

T-Mobile 将获得约30% of U.S. Cellular's wireless spectrum as part of the deal, according to the U.S. Cellular release. It plans to use that to improve coverage in rural areas while offering better connectivity to U.S. Cellular customers around the United States, the two companies announced. The company said it will allow U.S. Cellular customers to keep their current plans or switch to a T-Mobile plan.

两家公司都表示，U.S.Cellular将保留70%的无线频谱和发射塔，并将向T-Mobile租赁至少2100个额外发射塔的空间。U.S.Cellular在其新闻稿中表示，该协议还将允许T-Mobile签署至少2015座美国Cellular旗下塔楼的新长期租约，并延长约600座其他塔楼的现有租约。

该公司表示，这将使美国蜂窝公司的客户在交易完成后至少15年内拥有“强大的主力租户”。

The news follows T-Mobile's .35 billion acquisition of Ka'ena, the parent company of Mint Mobile. The U.S. Federal Communications Commission 批准了这笔交易 in April. T-Mobile与Sprint合并 in 2020 in a deal worth billion.

《华尔街日报》 reported earlier in May that T-Mobile and 威瑞森 were in talks to "carve up" U.S. Cellular's wireless spectrum but said a deal with Verizon on a separate transaction could take longer or fall through.

两家公司预计这笔交易将于2025年年中完成。
