UScellular, a leading wireless provider in the United States, released its financial results for the first quarter of 2024 on May 3, 2024. The company reported total operating revenues of $950 million for the quarter, with service revenues totaling $754 million.

In a statement, Laurent C. Therivel, President and CEO of UScellular, highlighted the company's performance, stating, "We delivered strong bottom-line results during the quarter, driven by postpaid ARPU growth and our ongoing focus on expense discipline.
