Verizon Q2 FY2026: adjusted EPS up 6.6%, guidance raised again

Verizon's second quarter tells two stories. Revenue slipped 0.7% to $34.25 billion and GAAP EPS fell 22.0% to $0.92 on $1.8 billion of pre-tax special items. Strip those out and adjusted EPS rose 6.6% to $1.30, adjusted EBITDA hit a record $13.72 billion, and management raised guidance for the second consecutive quarter. Read the margin and cash lines first; the GAAP headline stays noisy while charges keep landing.
