1Income tax expense (benefit) is not provided at the individual segment level for Wireline, Cable and HMS. TDS calculates income tax expense for ‘‘TDS
Telecom Total’’.
2Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion (‘‘Adjusted EBITDA’’) is a segment measure reported to the chief
operating decision maker for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance. Adjusted
EBITDA is defined as net income, adjusted for the items set forth in the reconciliation above. Adjusted EBITDA excludes these items in order to show
operating results on a more comparable basis from period to period. From time to time, TDS may also exclude other items from Adjusted EBITDA if
such items help reflect operating results on a more comparable basis. TDS does not intend to imply that any of such items that are excluded are
non-recurring, infrequent or unusual; such items may occur in the future. TDS believes Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure of TDS’ operating results
before significant recurring non-cash charges, discrete gains and losses, and other items as indicated above.
3ASU 2015-03, regarding simplification of the presentation of debt issuance costs, was adopted as of December 31, 2015 and applied retrospectively. All
