NEW YORK (Reuters) - T-Mobile US said on Friday that the cost required to acquire smaller rival Sprint will come down by 10 percent from the initial $26.5 billion following the divesture of assets to Dish Network.
T-Mobile said in a call with analysts that it is likely to raise about 10 percent less, or about $3 billion less, to acquire Sprint after agreeing to sell Sprint's prepaid businesses including Boost Mobile. Dish will be the fourth largest U.S. wireless carrier if the deal goes through.
