Verizon schedules second-quarter 2026 earnings call for July 24 at 8:30 a.m. ET

The telecom giant says it will review its latest quarterly results during a Friday morning conference call, with materials typically posted on its investor relations site.

Verizon Communications has set a date for its second-quarter 2026 earnings event, scheduling a conference call for 8:30 a.m. ET on Friday, July 24, 2026. The company said the discussion will focus on its 2nd Quarter Earnings results and will be available to participate in through its investor relations channels.

The timing comes ahead of Verizon’s next quarterly reporting window and sets the agenda for what investors will scrutinize: customer and service trends across mobility and broadband, how network investment is progressing, and the company’s outlook for key profitability and cash-flow measures. Verizon’s earnings calls are typically where management connects operating updates to financial guidance.

Verizon’s scale underscores why each quarterly update is closely watched. Verizon’s fact sheet says it generated $138.2 billion in revenue in 2025 and is headquartered in New York City, serving nearly all of the Fortune 500. As of March 31, 2026, it reported 146.8 million total wireless retail connections and 16.8 million fixed wireless access and fiber broadband connections, the customer bases that largely determine recurring service revenue performance.

In the most recent quarterly cycle, Verizon used the earnings forum to emphasize a strategy of operational change and improved customer economics. In its first-quarter 2026 earnings news release, the company discussed “transformation actions” and pointed to changes in customer acquisition and churn, along with raised adjusted EPS guidance. It also highlighted network build pace through capital expenditures, linking customer metrics to free cash flow considerations.

Adjusted EPS, short for “adjusted earnings per share,” is a version of profitability calculated with certain items excluded, and Verizon uses it as a key metric to communicate trends to investors. In its first-quarter 2026 release, Verizon said it raised 2026 adjusted EPS guidance to a range of 5.0 to 6.0 percent year-over-year growth, and it also described how it expects to manage retail postpaid phone net additions and mobility and broadband service revenue growth over the year.

Verizon’s investor relations site reflects how the company packages those earnings updates. Its quarterly earnings section describes that the company posts quarterly presentation materials, including earnings news releases, financial statements, and webcast transcripts. For example, the 1Q 2026 earnings conference call page lists not only the call time, but also the related news release and supporting documents such as the webcast transcript and presentation.

For the July 24 second-quarter call, however, Verizon’s June 8 announcement was focused on the schedule and did not provide the underlying operating results in the notice itself. As a result, investors will have to wait for the full earnings release and the accompanying presentation materials to learn how Verizon’s mobility and broadband performance, capital expenditures, and forward-looking metrics shaped the quarter.

Looking ahead, the key indicates to watch at the 2Q 2026 call are likely to include any changes in Verizon’s guidance or targets, updates on customer growth and churn dynamics, and commentary on the pace of network investment across wireless and fiber. The company’s pattern of posting transcripts and presentation materials after earnings also suggests that more detailed figures will surface alongside the call, once they are formally released.

Why It Matters

  • Telecom earnings calls often influence how investors price wireless and broadband service growth, especially when management updates guidance and cash-flow expectations.
  • Verizon’s customer scale and network investment requirements make quarterly updates a major checkpoint for the company’s capital spending priorities and profitability trajectory.
  • Any guidance changes around adjusted EPS and operating performance can be used by analysts to adjust expectations for the full-year outlook.
  • The call format and supporting materials suggest investors will quickly compare the quarter’s customer metrics and financial results against prior guidance and historical benchmarks.
