United States Cellular Corporation (NYSE: USM) announced it will rename the organization, Array Digital Infrastructure, Inc., upon the closing of the T-Mobile US (NASDAQ: TMUS) purchase of UScellular’s wireless operations. That transaction is expected to close on August 1, 2025, subject to satisfaction of closing conditions.
In connection with the name change, UScellular will change its ticker symbol on the NYSE to “AD” for its Common Stock. The new ticker symbol will replace the current ticker symbol “USM” which has been used since its initial public offering in 1988, according to the company. As part of the corporate name change, the company will launch a new website and a new company logo. Array Digital Infrastructure, Inc. expects to remain headquartered in Chicago.
Douglas W. Chambers will serve as interim President and CEO of the post-closing business. Chambers currently holds positions as EVP, CFO and Treasurer of UScellular, and serves on the UScellular Board of Directors. As interim CEO of Array, he will be responsible for overseeing operations and strategic initiatives related to the portfolio of 4,400 owned towers, noncontrolling investment interests and retained wireless spectrum. Chambers joined the TDS family of companies in 2007, and has served as EVP, CFO and Treasurer of UScellular for the past six years, the company said.
“Doug brings decades of industry experience and a robust understanding of the company’s strategy and overall operations, making him well suited to serve as interim President and CEO,” comments LeRoy T. Carlson, Jr., UScellular Board Chair. “The Board is confident that Doug is the right leader to oversee the successful transition to Array while we consider potential choices for a permanent CEO.”
