The VZ/FYBR deal obtained approval from the FCC by providing a letter modifying its DEI efforts. That letter, however, has raised issues with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), which also must approve the deal. In a prior note, we analyzed the interplay of the demands of the FCC and CPUC, the political challenge for VZ, and how we think the situation may be resolved. In this note, we review a new ruling from the CPUC and how that affects the situation.
The three largest mobile telecom operators in the US - Verizon, T-Mobile US[de], and AT&T – did well in 2Q25. IBM's performance was also good. Despite strong competition, all three mobile telecom operators grew their EBITDA again. Furthermore, AT&T and T-Mobile US may benefit from a credit rating upgrade. In our view, the Euro notes of T-Mobile US look the most attractive in this credit sub-space.

Postpaid phone adds beat estimates, which will come as a relief following Verizon’s results. Service revenue, EBITDA, EPS, and FCF were all slightly better than expected. The Company increased FCF guidance following OBBBA, but by less than some had hoped. In addition, the Company did not commit to increasing share repurchases with the increased FCF.
Charter and Comcast announced that they have signed an MVNO with T-Mobile that will target new business customers (here). In this quick note we provide thoughts on implications for Verizon, T-Mobile, Charter, Comcast, and the industry more broadly.
We have updated the model following results. While our financial estimates are moderately higher in the near-term (and free cash flow is much higher from tax reform), most KPIs are notably lower, and we no longer expect the company to grow Consumer postpaid phones this year. We expect consensus estimates to head in the same directions. We remain neutral on Verizon (new TP: $42; total return 5%).
In this report we tackle whether management effectively dropped subscriber guidance, the potential for churn to improve, the drivers of slower EBITDA growth in the second half of the year, how convergence comments impact the Company’s appetite for accelerating fiber investments, M&A, and spectrum purchases, what this all means for share repurchases, and what it means for the stock.
Mobile and broadband adds were weak. Consumer postpaid phone adds were a touch better than lowered expectations, but business adds were weak. FiOS and FWA adds were also weak. In mobile, gross adds were up sharply, but so was churn.
