what happened
Verizon Communications posted third-quarter earnings of $5.198 billion, or $1.25 per share, compared with $4.950 billion, or $1.17 per share, a year earlier. Excluding items, adjusted earnings reached $1.31 per share.
Revenue rose 1.5% to $34.313 billion from $33.821 billion. According to the report, which TradingView attributes to dpa-AFX and RTTNews, the company kept its full-year 2026 adjusted EPS guidance at $5.04 to $5.06. It expects mobility and broadband service revenue growth in the upper half of its 2.5% to 3.0% annual range, with about 4.0% growth in the fourth quarter.
why it matters
The results point to steady but moderate growth at a large telecom operator. Investors will focus on the guidance for mobility and broadband services, which drives sentiment across the US telecom sector. Profit growing faster than revenue suggests cost control held up in the quarter.
