The VZ/FYBR deal has moved closer to closing with an Administrative Law Judge issuing a Proposed Decision recommending California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) approval, albeit with numerous conditions. In this note we discuss that Proposed Decision and the steps forward from here.
We hosted a Verizon investor lunch yesterday. We feel we came away with a clearer understanding of the evolving ‘Dan Plan’. Long story short, the chances of VZ ‘burning down the neighborhood’ are far lower than generally feared. This fear has nevertheless been priced into sector stocks, which may present an opportunity across the sector.

Optimum’s cNPS for their fiber product is higher than their Cable product but the gap has decreased in recent months. Fiber cNPS has decreased and Cable cNPS has increased slightly. As the size of Optimum’s Fiber customer base increases, the overall cNPS should inch higher. More importantly, Fiber scores are higher than Cable in every category. The company has a lot of work to do to improve scores in price / value and customer support, both of which remain very low for both technologies

Press reports indicate that Comcast has submitted a revised bid for Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) and has offered to merge it with its NBCUniversal division (NBCU). WBD shareholders would receive a mix of cash and stock in the new entity. We think there are merits to this transaction but getting a deal approved by the regulators could prove challenging.

We also refresh our work on the relative competitive positioning of carriers based on end-user cNPS scores via our Recon Analytics partnership.

Circuit will hear arguments related to the challenge. In this note, we preview that argument.
A big issue affecting all mobile carriers is churn. One way to reduce churn is by creating friction for customers seeking to change carriers in transferring their phone to a different carrier. VZ, due to a 2007 commitment, is at a disadvantage relative to T and TMUS. VZ is seeking to change that rule, arguing that the rule not only creates an unfair playing field but also increases its costs and creates opportunities for fraud. In this note, we describe the current state of play for whether VZ...
