Verizon beats Q3 expectations with strong broadband growth and $7.8B free cash flow, targets 45% upside.

Verizon Communications reported strong Q3 results, surpassing profit expectations due to robust broadband subscriber growth and record broadband revenue. The company generated $7.8 billion in free cash flow and plans to continue growing dividends, offering investors downside protection. Despite competition from SpaceX in mobile communications, Verizon's stable cash flow and attractive valuation with an 8.5x forward P/E make it a compelling buy, with a target price suggesting 45% upside and a yield over 6%.

Verizon's stock is trading at USD 43.85 on Pluang, showing a 1.74% increase in the last day. The dividend yield stands at 6.57%, with most investors (96%) buying as of Oct 27, 2026, 23:31 WIB.
