T-Mobile US stock (ISIN US8725901040) was trading at USD 166.03 on Nasdaq at 11:02 a.m. ET on September 28, 2026, up USD 0.60, or 0.37 percent, from the prior close. The immediate investor debate combines a higher dividend with a series of lower analyst targets.

Dividend rises to USD 1.17

According to StockTitan on September 24, 2026, T-Mobile US declared a quarterly dividend of USD 1.17 per share, an increase of USD 0.15, or 15.00 percent, from the previous quarter. The payment is scheduled for December 10, 2026, for shareholders of record on November 25, 2026.

The payout decision gives the stock an income angle while the share price remains 31.09 percent below its 52-week high of USD 240.95. The 52-week low is USD 161.14, putting the September 28 quote USD 4.89 above that floor.

Targets move in opposite directions

Goldman Sachs lowered its T-Mobile US price target from USD 230.00 to USD 211.00 while maintaining a Buy rating, MarketBeat reported on September 26, 2026. The reduction contrasts with Moffett Nathanson raising its target from USD 242.00 to USD 246.00 while retaining a Buy rating, according to MarketBeat on September 24, 2026.

The split signals a more demanding valuation discussion: the latest quoted price is below both targets, but target revisions are not moving uniformly. For investors, the contrast between shareholder distributions and competitive pressure is more informative than the consensus label alone.

Second-quarter earnings set the base

T-Mobile US reported second-quarter 2026 adjusted EPS of USD 2.99 against a USD 2.59 consensus, while revenue rose 7.90 percent year over year to USD 22.79 billion, according to MarketBeat. The revenue result was below the USD 22.95 billion consensus, creating a mixed earnings profile despite the EPS beat.

StockTitan lists T-Mobile US's third-quarter 2026 earnings call for October 28, 2026. That date gives the next formal checkpoint for service revenue, profitability and management commentary.

Stock trades near its yearly low
