GoodMoat Analysis

Based on data as of March 26, 2026

Verizon exhibits a mixed quality profile for a value investor, with strong free cash flow generation and profitability offset by a highly leveraged balance sheet and minimal growth. The 9.5% FCF yield is favourable, but the debt-to-equity ratio of 1.74 is a significant concern.

Read full analysis

Verizon's financial quality presents a clear trade-off between cash generation and financial risk. On the positive side, the company is highly profitable, with a 12.4% profit margin and a 21.2% operating margin, indicating strong operational control. Free cash flow generation is a standout strength, with a 9.5% FCF yield far exceeding the framework's 10-15% FCF margin threshold when expressed as a yield. This robust cash flow supports the substantial 5.41% dividend yield. However, the balance sheet is a major weakness. A debt-to-equity ratio of 1.74 indicates a highly leveraged capital structure, which fails the framework's preference for a net cash position and a Debt/EBITDA under 1.0x. This elevates financial risk, especially in a rising interest rate environment. Growth is virtually absent, with revenue growth of only 2.0% YoY, which is well below the double-digit, sustainable growth sought in the framework. This lack of growth limits the potential for operating leverage and margin expansion. In summary, Verizon is a stable, cash-generating utility-like business, but its quality is capped by its heavy debt load and stagnant top line.
