2025-04-01
New
Reason
Oppenheimer analyst Timothy Horan raised the firm's price target on Verizon to $50 from $48 on valuation, while keeping an Outperform rating on the shares. The firm believes Verizon and the wireless sector at large is under-owned and undervalued. The stock is trading at a 50% discount to the S&P 500 on a 2025 price-to-earnings basis and 4-turns the market's dividend yield of 1.4%, well above its long term averages. Q1 will look weak from a sub growth and churn perspective, which is driving incremental promotional competition. However, Oppenheimer sees this as temporary and thinks Verizon will operate within guardrails to not put guidance at risk.

$42 → $45
2025-03-25
Reason
RBC Capital raised the firm's price target on Verizon to $45 from $42 and keeps a Sector Perform rating on the shares. The firm has trimmed its estimates for postpaid net additions, reflecting a more competitive start of the year and the exclusion of second number additions from the key metrics, but its higher price target reflects lower interest rates and the one-quarter roll-forward impacts on its discount-cash-flow model, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

2025-03-03
Reason
Scotiabank analyst Maher Yaghi raised the firm's price target on Verizon to $48 from $47.50 and keeps a Sector Perform rating on the shares. The firm updated its price targets for some stocks in the Telecom, Media, & Technology sector due to the recent decline in 10Y treasury rates, the analyst tells investors.

Reason
Scotiabank raised the firm's price target on Verizon to $47.25 from $46.50 and keeps a Sector Perform rating on the shares. The firm continues to have a positive view on U.S. telecoms, saying the industry remains supported by healthy subscriber loading dynamics and positive pricing trends. The industry is also benefiting from lower interest rate expectations with continued positive money flow into the sector, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Scotiabank believes the setup in wireless is "especially bullish" with low industry churn, improving average revenue per user dynamics, low handset subsidization combined with declining capex spend. However, Valuations have moved up since earlier this year, it adds.
