Item 8.01    Other Events
T-Mobile US, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to retrospectively reclassify certain previously reported financial information in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 to reflect a change in accounting principle.

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” (the “new cash flow standard”) on January 1, 2018. The new cash flow standard impacted the presentation of cash flows related to the Company’s beneficial interests in securitization transactions, which is the deferred purchase price, resulting in a reclassification of cash inflows from Operating activities to Investing activities in its Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The new cash flow standard also impacted the presentation of the Company’s cash payments for debt prepayment and debt extinguishment costs, resulting in a reclassification of cash outflows from Operating activities to Financing activities in its  Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. This change in accounting principle has been reflected beginning with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2018, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 1, 2018.

This Current Report on Form 8-K the Items listed below in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the SEC on February 8, 2018 to apply the new cash flow standard retrospectively to all periods presented. Except as specifically provided herein, the Company has not updated the Items listed below in this Current Report on Form 8-K for any developments or events occurring after February 8, 2018.

Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K includes updates only to the extent necessary to reflect the retrospective reclassifications made to information in the following Items of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017:
