Verizon: Why Network Quality, Cost Control, and Capital Returns Are Finally Aligning!
Verizon Communications Inc. provided insights into its fourth quarter 2025 performance and laid out its plans for 2026. The recent results reflect a combination of strategic advances and challenges that the company must navigate to maintain its position in the competitive telecommunications industry. On the positive side, Verizon demonstrated a noteworthy increase in net additions across mobility and broadband, marking the highest volumes in six years. The addition of over 1 million new mobility and broadband net customers indicates successful market engagement, especially during the holiday season. Verizon reported postpaid phone net additions of 616,000, a significant achievement not seen in the past five years, with the consumer segment contributing significantly to this growth. Furthermore, the company’s commitment to expanding fiber offerings is highlighted by its acquisition of Frontier, adding substantial fiber passings and enhancing potential cross-sell opportunities.
