What the Analysts think about Verizon

Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Verizon stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

Verizon added 55,000 net new mobile subscribers in Q1 2026, its first positive phone subscriber additions in a first quarter since 2013, reflecting effective execution of CEO Dan Schulman’s market-share recovery strategy. (Bloomberg)

Investors poured bids into Verizon’s €2.25 billion and £600 million hybrid bond offerings at record-low spreads, highlighting strong confidence in the company’s credit quality and liquidity. (Bloomberg)

Completing the $20 billion Frontier acquisition on January 20, 2026 expanded Verizon’s fiber network to more than 30 million homes and businesses, significantly strengthening its fixed broadband reach. (Nasdaq)

Raising approximately $12 billion through hybrid debt sales since late 2025 has significantly increased Verizon’s leverage, potentially leading to higher interest expenses and putting pressure on free cash flow. (Bloomberg)

The major network outage on January 14, 2026 led to a formal FCC review, bringing regulatory scrutiny and exposing operational risks that could result in future penalties or required investments. (Wikipedia)

Even with the Q1 2026 subscriber gains, the net addition of 55,000 is still limited compared to the mature, saturated market, suggesting there may be little room left for substantial wireless subscriber growth. (Bloomberg)
