Verizon Communications (ISIN US92343V1044) was trading at EUR 40.55 at Lang & Schwarz on October 1, 2026 at 11:02 a.m. CEST, down 0.12 percent versus the prior close of EUR 40.60. Verizon said on September 28, 2026, that it will report third-quarter 2026 earnings on October 26, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. ET.

October earnings date is set

The scheduled report gives investors the next defined checkpoint for Verizon's transformation. The company said the webcast and financial materials will accompany the third-quarter release, making October 26, 2026, the next date for updated operating figures.

Verizon's latest reported quarter showed a sharper split between service growth and equipment revenue. According to the Fortune transcript dated July 24, 2026, second-quarter adjusted earnings per share rose 6.60 percent year over year to USD 1.30, while total revenue fell 0.70 percent year over year to USD 34.30 billion. Adjusted EBITDA increased 7.20 percent to USD 13.70 billion, and the adjusted EBITDA margin reached 40.10 percent.

Cash flow leads the operating picture

The same second-quarter discussion put free cash flow at USD 6.40 billion, up 24.00 percent year over year. Verizon also raised its full-year 2026 adjusted earnings per share growth outlook to 6.00-7.00 percent and its free cash flow growth outlook to 9.00-10.00 percent.

That combination matters because revenue was still contracting in the reported quarter even as profitability and cash generation improved. Verizon also reported 184,000 postpaid phone net additions and 348,000 broadband net additions in the second quarter, figures that management will need to sustain when the October report arrives.

Analyst target remains above the quote

According to MarketScreener on September 22, 2026, MoffettNathanson raised its Verizon target from USD 49.00 to USD 50.00 and maintained a Neutral rating. The target stood 9.00 percent above the USD 45.87 last price on the NYSE at 4:00 p.m. ET on September 30, 2026, using the same dollar currency for both values.

Verizon Communications had a market capitalization of USD 191.5 billion as of September 30, 2026. Its 52-week NYSE range was USD 38.39 to USD 51.68, leaving the Lang & Schwarz euro quote as a separate German-market reference rather than a substitute for the primary-exchange figures.
