Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ) – Form 4 insider filing

Executive Vice President & President of Global Networks & Technology Joseph J. Russo reported one transaction dated 18 June 2025 involving the company’s deferred compensation plan.

• Security type: Phantom stock units (cash-settled, economically equivalent to common shares).
• Quantity acquired: 92.168 units, representing the economic equivalent of approximately 26 common shares.
• Transaction code: “A” (open-market or plan acquisition); ownership is Indirect (I) through Verizon’s Deferred Compensation Plan.
• Resulting balance: 65,819.334 phantom stock units.
• Price shown: $11.89 per unit; the plan settles in cash upon distribution, not in Verizon stock.

The filing is routine and does not involve actual common share purchases or sales. The small size relative to Verizon’s ~4.2 billion shares outstanding makes the event immaterial to the company’s valuation. No other non-derivative transactions were reported, and there is no indication of a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan.

• Held indirectly through Deferred Compensation Plan
• Each phantom stock unit represents a portion of one common stock share and is settled in cash
• Payment timing is based on events established by the reporting person under the deferred compensation plan

This Form 4 filing indicates continued executive participation in Verizon's deferred compensation program, with the position including additional units acquired through dividend reinvestment. The transaction aligns executive interests with long-term company performance through phantom stock that tracks Verizon's common stock value.

Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE: VZ) filed a Form 8-K on June 20, 2025. The filing discloses, under Item 8.01 (Other Events), that a press release dated June 20, 2025 has been issued and is furnished as Exhibit 99.1. No financial results, strategic transactions, or qualitative details from the press release are provided within the 8-K text itself.

Under Item 9.01 (Financial Statements and Exhibits), Verizon lists two exhibits: (i) the press release (Exhibit 99.1) and (ii) the cover-page interactive data file in inline XBRL format (Exhibit 104). The document also recaps the company’s extensive list of registered debt securities and common stock traded on the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Global Select Market.

Because the substantive contents of Exhibit 99.1 are not included in the filing excerpt, investors are only notified that an additional disclosure exists rather than receiving its details here. The filing therefore serves primarily as a procedural notice that Verizon has issued a press release containing other material information.
