T-Mobile US (TMUS) added 3.3 million postpaid phone net additions in 2025 (industry-leading), generated $17.995 billion in free cash flow (up 80.27% year-over-year), and guided for $37.0B to $37.5B Core Adjusted EBITDA in 2026 representing 10% year-over-year growth. Citi analyst Michael Rollins raised his price target to $225 from $220, arguing the stock trades at a 0.8 PEG ratio that underprices earnings growth and deserves multiple expansion.

T-Mobile’s industry-leading subscriber growth and accelerating free cash flow provide the cash generation needed to fund its $14.6 billion buyback authorization through December 2026 and support Citi’s case for valuation re-rating toward the $225 target.

A recent study identified one single habit that doubled Americans’ retirement savings and moved retirement from dream, to reality. Read more here.

T-Mobile US (NASDAQ:TMUS) has had a mixed stretch heading into spring. The stock is down 1.23% over the past week and off 17% over the past 12 months, well off the 52-week high of $268.02. Most analysts on the Street carry considerably higher targets, with the consensus sitting at $268.52. Against that backdrop, Citi analyst Michael Rollins raised his price target to $225 from $220, while maintaining a Neutral rating. But can TMUS realistically reach $225 by the end of 2026?

Rollins's updated call is grounded in two straightforward premises: inline Q1 2026 results and a better multiple for T-Mobile's growth prospects. The multiple re-rating argument has merit. T-Mobile currently trades at a forward P/E of roughly 20x with a PEG ratio of 0.8, suggesting the market may be underpricing its earnings growth relative to peers. The company guided for Core Adjusted EBITDA of $37.0B to $37.5B in 2026, representing approximately 10% year-over-year growth at the midpoint, which supports the case for modest multiple expansion.

Read: Data Shows One Habit Doubles American’s Savings And Boosts Retirement

Most Americans drastically underestimate how much they need to retire and overestimate how prepared they are. But data shows that people with one habit have more than double the savings of those who don’t.

Industry-leading subscriber growth: T-Mobile added 3.3 million postpaid phone net additions in full-year 2025, the best in the industry. Consistent subscriber growth compounds into durable service revenue, a critical engine for long-term cash flow.

Free cash flow acceleration: Full-year 2025 free cash flow reached $17.995 billion, up 80.27% year-over-year, with 2026 guidance calling for $18.0B to $18.7B in adjusted free cash flow. That cash generation funds buybacks and dividends directly.

Shareholder return program: T-Mobile authorized up to $14.6 billion in buybacks through December 2026, alongside a $1.02 per share quarterly dividend. Combined with a low beta of 0.41, the company combines a low beta with a dividend and buyback program.

With approximately 1.10 billion shares outstanding, a $225 price target implies a market cap modestly above today's $240.3 billion. The path there requires: Q1 results that confirm the Q4 one-time charges were truly isolated, continued broadband customer growth building on the current 9.4 million total broadband customers, and investor confidence in the multi-year targets expected at the upcoming Capital Markets Day.

The primary risk is T-Mobile's $88.6 billion debt load, which limits financial flexibility if growth disappoints. Still, with free cash flow accelerating, a disciplined buyback program, and a growth multiple that Citi believes deserves a re-rating, the $225 target represents a credible near-term milestone according to Citi's analysis.

Most Americans drastically underestimate how much they need to retire and overestimate how prepared they are. But data shows that people with one habit have more than double the savings of those who don’t.

And no, it’s got nothing to do with increasing your income, savings, clipping coupons, or even cutting back on your lifestyle. It’s much more straightforward (and powerful) than any of that. Frankly, it’s shocking more people don’t adopt the habit given how easy it is.
