Оценка менеджмента

Тон

Confident

Management expressed confidence in growth vectors, synergies from Frontier, and disciplined capital allocation, while acknowledging competitive intensity but framing it as manageable.

AI

Оценка AI от менеджмента

Management discussed AI as a growth vector, particularly through distributing AI apps like Gemini as perks and building edge computing capabilities for future AI-driven devices and enterprise applications. They see AI as both a revenue opportunity and a source of cost reductions, with early positioning in AI Connect and edge capacity.

Капзатраты

Инвестиции и мощности

Verizon increased capex this year to $18-18.5 billion, primarily to fund an expanded fiber build (from 400-450k passings in 2024 to 650k in 2025) and the Frontier acquisition. The C-band deployment is on track to finish 80-90% this year, with final completion in 2026. They aim to maintain low capital intensity, though Frontier may raise it slightly.
