  • The History of Verizon Communications
    The history of Verizon Communications Verizon Communications Inc., based in New York City and incorporated in Delaware, was formed on June 30, 2000, with the merger of Bell Atlantic Corp. and GTE Corp. Verizon began trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the VZ symbol on Monday, July 3, 2000. It also began trading on the NASDAQ exchange under the same symbol on March 10, 2010. The symbol was selected because it uses the two letters of the Verizon logo that graphically portray speed, while also echoing the origin of the company name: veritas, the Latin word connoting certainty and reliability, and horizon, signifying forward-looking and visionary. While Verizon is truly a 21st century company, the mergers that formed Verizon were many years in the making, involving companies with roots that can be traced to the beginnings of the telephone business in the late 19th century. Government regulation largely shaped the evolution of the industry throughout most of the 20th century. Then, with the signing of the Telecommunications Act on February 8, 1996, federal law directed a shift to more market-based policies. This promise of a new competitive marketplace was a driving force behind Verizon’s formation. Verizon’s formation The mergers that formed Verizon were among the largest in U.S. business history, culminating in a definitive merger agreement, dated July 27, 1998, between Bell Atlantic, based in New York City, and GTE, which was in the process of moving its headquarters from Stamford, Conn., to Irving, Texas. GTE and Bell Atlantic had each evolved and grown through years of mergers, acquisitions and divestitures.

  • Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ)
    Verizon Communications Inc. Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ) Summary Verizon Communications Inc. is a telecommunications company that offers communications, information, and entertainment products and services to consumers, businesses, and government agencies around the globe. The company was founded in 1983 and is headquartered in New York City, New York. Investment Thesis We are recommending that investors sell Verizon Communications Inc. due to the following reasons: • Growth has stabilized and revenue projections remain flat into the future. Modest revenue growth is heavily speculated on successful 5G product leadership. • Top competitor in the wireless communications industry, AT&T trades at a lower P/E ratio suggesting Verizon may be priced expensively. • A potential merger by Sprint and T-Mobile could pose a threat to Verizon market share, in addition to other technology firms who could enter the market. Risks Potential risks associated with investment in Verizon Communications include: • Future growth heavily tied to 5G network expansion and race against competitors to fully leverage first mover advantage. • Mergers within the telecommunications industry, changing competitive dynamics. • Firms starting to bundle product lines around wireless services, cable and streaming services, 1 | Page and others lowering average revenue per user.

This evolution did not follow a direct path from A to B; instead, it took a winding and interlocking path. This path is represented via a timeline that textually analyses the data collected, and through graphical interpretation, depicts the history of the path. With this one should be able to see the growth of the enterprises through history, which is shown horizontally, as well as the different variables that affected their growth along the way, depicted vertically. Both of these variables are depicted on one chart, from the same vantage point. This timeline not only shows the path of growth of the technology and its enterprises but also the interrelations of the different enterprises and how either technology, politics, or geographic presence influenced this swath.
