How to read these numbers

Challenge rate is the share of questions that pushed back, pressed for specifics or questioned management’s assumptions. It describes how questions were asked on the calls tracked here; it does not measure whether any view turned out to be right.

Rounding. Rates are rounded to whole percentages, so a small share can show as 0% even when some questions were challenging. The count beside each rate is exact; “none of N questions” means no question was challenging.

No questions recorded. “—” means there is nothing to calculate: no questions were recorded for that period on the calls tracked here. It does not mean there was no activity.

Fewer than 3 questions. A company-level rate is withheld when fewer than 3 questions were recorded for that company; the questions are still counted everywhere else.

Small samples. Profiles with fewer than 10 questions are marked Limited sample.

Reporting periods. Questions are grouped by the calendar quarter each company’s fiscal reporting period maps to, not by the date of the call. Periods without a calendar mapping are listed separately under their fiscal label.

Jon confirmed 20%+ rural household share achieved, 9th consecutive quarter of postpaid switching leadership; Mike sees win share far above 20%, suggesting much higher long-term potential.

I was wondering if you can add more color to those words thoughtfully whether we think about M&A buybacks or network investment

Tony said Q2 gross add strength came from two places: strong sales execution across stores and districts, plus the Best Value Guarantee (launched early April) which is resonating with customers and driving a healthy mix of new-to-Verizon customers. He reiterated Verizon will pulse in and pulse out where it makes financial sense and that loyalty and retention is the biggest opportunity. Hans described the June 24 launch as AI-supported customer experience tools: one customer care employee follows a request end-to-end; 24/7 customer service; AI tools empowering care agents; and broader use of the retail store footprint (93% of US population within 30 minutes of a Verizon store). Combined with myPlan, myHome, myBest, perks, brand refresh, and best-in-market network recognition (JD Power, RootMetrics), Verizon is executing holistically across segments.
