Insights

TL;DR: Routine deferred‑compensation acquisition of cash‑settled phantom units; not a market‑moving transaction.

The Form 4 documents a non‑derivative economic acquisition (phantom stock units) of 101.259 units by a named officer on 08/28/2025, increasing indirect holdings to 46,305.948 units under the company deferred compensation plan. Phantom stock is cash settled and includes dividend reinvestment, indicating plan reinvestment mechanics rather than open‑market purchases or option exercises. For investors, this is a governance/disclosure item reflecting compensation deferral, not an operational or liquidity event affecting Verizon's capital structure.

TL;DR: Compensation‑related filing showing plan participation and reinvestment; standard disclosure with limited investor impact.

The reporting person is an executive (EVP and Chief Legal Officer) who acquired phantom stock units that are indirect holdings under the deferred compensation plan. The filing clarifies settlement is cash based and payable upon plan‑specified events, and that dividend reinvestment increases unit balances. This disclosure is consistent with routine executive compensation administration and raises no governance red flags based on the information provided.
