Verizon Kicks Off Earnings Week — Q1 EPS Expected $1.21 on $34.86B Revenue

Verizon Communications opens U.S. earnings week with its first-quarter 2026 results before the bell on Monday 27 April 2026. The webcast begins at 8:30 a.m. Eastern.

Wall Street Consensus

  • EPS: $1.21 (range $1.12–$1.33)
  • Revenue: ~$34.86 billion (range $34.03B–$35.56B)
  • 30-day EPS consensus: drifted down 0.8% from $1.22 — near-term caution
  • 90-day EPS consensus: climbed 1.7% from $1.19 — longer-run trajectory still constructive

The Print to Watch

Subscriber additions are the figure that will move the stock. In a recent quarter, Verizon delivered more than 1 million total net additions across mobility and broadband — the strongest quarterly performance since 2019 — including 616,000 postpaid phone net adds.

Investor Focus

  • Fixed-wireless-access (FWA) broadband subscribers
