Inside Sprint’s Customer Base
The performance of a mobile carrier’s network determines its customer base, and Sprint (S) has been continuously focusing on upgrading its network to keep its customers. In fact, the fourth-largest wireless network provider in the US is adding a significant number of postpaid and prepaid customers of late and has been deploying thousands of small-cell solutions, including the Sprint Magic Box, to improve its network performance. In fiscal 3Q17, Sprint added a total of 385,000 wireless customers, including 256,000 postpaid customers, 63,000 prepaid customers, and 66,000 wholesale and affiliate net customer additions.
