Verizon Communications Inc.

The full register, from 13F filings

The Register tab above is hand research: a dozen holders, each traced to the filing it came from. This asks the same question of the whole market for the quarter ended 31-mar-2026, where 3,220 managers reported a position. Broad where the research is deep, and shallow in the ways a 13F always is.

Built from 13F filings, which report US listed, long, US custodied positions only. A register from this source is a floor rather than a level: a holder's true position can be far larger, as BlackRock's ASML stake shows at 1.28m shares in a 13F against 26.3m in its 13G/A. Holdings held through derivatives, outside US custody, or below a manager's reporting obligation do not appear. Where a holder is marked as a family, its total sums several separate filing entities and describes something no single filing describes; the constituent entities and their share counts are listed so the total can be checked. That roll-up can legitimately exceed the family's own Schedule 13G, because a 13G is filed by one legal entity: Vanguard reports Alphabet through ten advisory entities, and The Vanguard Group Inc itself reported zero after its January 2026 disaggregation.

What a reader needs to know to read these numbers

• Verizon does not file Form 13F (it is not an institutional investment manager), so the register above is built entirely from each institutional holder's own 13F-HR plus Verizon's own DEF 14A proxy statement.
• Holdings is empty and that is the sourced finding. The FY2025 Form 10-K (period ended 31 December 2025, filed 17 February 2026) and the Q2 2026 Form 10-Q (period ended 30 June 2026, filed 31 July 2026) were both searched for 'equity method', 'unconsolidated', 'non-marketable', 'measurement alternative', 'joint venture', 'wireless partnership' and 'satellite'/'AST SpaceMobile'/'Skylo'/'Kuiper'. Verizon carries a single combined balance sheet line, 'Investments in unconsolidated businesses', of $783 million at 30 June 2026 ($785 million at 31 December 2025), covering both equity-method investees and cost-method (measurement alternative) investments without readily determinable fair value ($710 million of that total at 31 December 2025 per the 10-K). No individual investee is named or sized anywhere in either filing, so per the brief's rule against distributing a combined bucket, no holding rows were recorded; the combined figure is not attributed to any named target.
• The Frontier Communications acquisition (closed 20 January 2026) and the Starry Group Holdings acquisition (closed 30 January 2026) are both outright, wholly-owned acquisitions per the FY2025 10-K, not minority equity stakes, so neither belongs in holdings. Frontier's results are consolidated into Verizon from the closing date; Starry's cash consideration is described as insignificant.
• Verizon's satellite-related disclosure in the 10-K is limited to a sentence about 'partnering with satellite providers to enhance off-grid emergency and text messaging services' with no counterparty named and no equity component disclosed. Confirmed this is a commercial partnership reference, not a sourced equity stake, so nothing was recorded.
• No noncontrolling interest belonging to a named partner in a Verizon-controlled entity was recorded as a Verizon holding. The $1,276 million (30 June 2026) / $1,281 million (31 December 2025) 'Noncontrolling interests' line on Verizon's balance sheet is other parties' minority stakes in Verizon-controlled subsidiaries (for example wireless partnerships Verizon majority-owns), which is the reverse direction from what belongs in holdings and was deliberately excluded.
• Vanguard's most recent Form 13F-HR under CIK 0000102909 covers the quarter ended 31 December 2025 (filed 29 January 2026); for the quarters ended 31 March 2026 and 30 June 2026 Vanguard filed Form 13F-NT (notice only), so its 30 June 2026 position could not be sourced from that CIK and the most recent 13F-HR figure is used instead, at an older as_of date than the other institutional rows.
• Register percentages for the 30 June 2026 13F rows use 4,154,775,202 shares outstanding as of 30 June 2026 (Q2 2026 10-Q cover page, filed 31 July 2026, after deducting 136,658,444 treasury shares). The Vanguard row uses 4,217,684,168 shares outstanding as of 30 January 2026 (FY2025 10-K cover page), the closest available denominator to its 31 December 2025 as_of date. The three proxy-sourced insider rows use the proxy's own stated 'approximately 4.18 billion shares' as of the 3 March 2026 record date, since the proxy does not give an exact count.
• The proxy's own 5-percent-owner table (page 77) is stale relative to the 13F data used here: it cites Schedule 13G filings from February 2024 (Vanguard 350,035,321 shares / 8.4%, since superseded by an internal-realignment 13G on 27 March 2026 stating Vanguard no longer holds 5%+ directly; BlackRock 348,127,746 shares / 8.3%) and a November 2025 Schedule 13G for State Street (215,538,375 shares / 5.2%). This research uses each manager's own most recent Form 13F-HR instead, per the brief's preference for 13F over stale 13G/proxy citations, and records the disagreement here rather than resolving it by overwriting.
• Verizon has a single class of common stock, one vote per share; no dual-class structure.
• Market capitalisation of $195.19 billion is an aggregator figure (stockanalysis.com) as of 12 August 2026, the most recent found; it is not from a filing and should be treated as approximate.
