Verizon Communications VZ has recently been under much scrutiny in the financial news sector. Various reports highlight that the company is set to record a severance charge of up to
$1.9 billion for Q3, a significant financial move that raises eyebrows. At the same time, VZ is making strategic moves, including an ambitious
$9.6 billion bid for Frontier Communications to expand its broadband capabilities. Other significant movements include an increment in its
dividend for the 18th consecutive year and the stock reaching a new 1-year high at
$43.87. The companyβs stock has been fluctuating, however, with occasional drops being reported. The purchase of Frontier Communications, although strategically beneficial, could prove costly for one group of shareholders. VZ has also expanded its 4G and 5G coverage in specific locations and is planning to show the impact of 5G in the content creation and distribution industry at the IBC2024. VZ's recent financial performance has been a point of interest, with Q2 earnings surpassing estimates but some critics paint a concerning picture regarding returns on capital.
