JPMorgan analyst Sebastiano Petti:
"We anticipate that Schulman will pursue an assertive strategy to accelerate Verizon's fiber footprint growth, with a heightened focus on convergence to lower churn and enhance consumer segment volumes and share. However, increased capital expenditures to support footprint expansion are likely to pressure free cash flow and impede the company's de-leveraging trajectory. As a result, we would not be surprised if Verizon suspends dividend growth to prioritize investment in growth initiatives and/or discretionary share buybacks."
