REVENUES BREAKDOWN
"During 2010, total data revenues increased to $19.6 billion. That is $4 billion of
 data revenue growth in one year. Think about that number, and then you can
understand our excitement about the revenue opportunity with 4G LTE tablets,
   4G LTE, all new 3G and 4G smartphones that are coming to the market."

4G Long-Term Evolution
   “The key transaction was probably in 2007, when we purchased the nationwide
spectrum in the 700 MHz range, which paved our way for the investment in a superior
4G LTE network. We launched LTE in December in 38 major markets, home to a third
   of all Americans. We will double that in the next 18 months to some 200 million
             POPs, and we will blanket the country by the end of 2013”

AT&T AND CHURN
       churn | For any given period of time, the number of participants who discontinue their use of a
       service divided by the average number of total participants. Churn rate provides insight into the
    growth or decline of the subscriber base as well as the average length of participation in the service.

SUB-INDUSTRY OUTLOOK
• Fundamental outlook on the industry is neutral with growth
 opportunity strongly linked to macroeconomic factors such as
 unemployment
• Wireline
         will see growth in areas of broadband connectivity as
 demand for high speed access grows and is discretionary
• Anticipate
           continued growth in CapEx across the industry to
 keep up with technological innovation
• Resulting   in slower bottom line growth as in past quarters
• Network     Neutrality to be closely watched
NETWORK NEUTRALITY
FCC’s “four principles” of openness—essentially that consumers should be able to access any lawful
content or service from any lawful device—enshrined as law . The proposal would also prohibit paid
 prioritization of traffic, meaning broadband operators would be barred from granting preferential
treatment to particular applications or service, such as those willing to pay for better performance.”
                                        -- DigitalTrends.com


•   Verizon & Google partner to draft
    proposal for Net Neutrality to be
    adopted by FCC
•   Verizon now suing because FCC
    overstepped their authority?
•   Verizon now also secretly unveils
    new policy to “cap” uncapped data
    transfers for the top 5% of data
    users as a temporary punisment

                   Strengths                                            Weakness
•   iPhone introduction is a catalyst for wireless   •    Owned as a subsidiary of Vodafone and talks
    growth in addition to 4G LTE network                  of a parent dividend have been rumored
•   FiOS gaining momentum and replacing older        •    Large influx of new 4G devices may cost
    network revenues                                      more than anticipated by management



               Opportunity                                               Threats
•   The communication industry is growing and        •   The slowed recovery of the economy which
    demand for high speed connections are                translate in reduced discretionary spending
    increasing
                                                     •   AT&T and Verizon differentiate mainly due to
•   Opportunity to capture AT&T as churn rates           contracts, phone availability and signal quality
    increase

OPINION TUG-O-WAR

• Changes in the smartphone share of • Verizon appears to have the most

  pressure and higher costs to             providers, highly attributable to the

DIVESTMENT THESIS
•   Verizon is poised to grow with the advent of its 4G network, but it has been a
    long time coming and even competitors like T-Mobile are entering the arena.
• Net Neutrality could work in favor of VZ, as well as their competitors. VZ &
  Goog proposition could ultimately tarnish the providers reputation upon
  implementation
• iPhone 4 and
  release of 4G
  definitely already
  priced into VZ
FINALLY
Will Verizon learn from AT&T’s mistakes and keep their network up to par?
