BASKING RIDGE, N.J., May 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE, Nasdaq: VZ) has announced preliminary results of the shareholder vote at its annual meeting, which was held today in a virtual-only format.

Verizon’s shareholders elected each of Verizon’s 10 directors to a one-year term. Shareholders also voted in favor of two management proposals:

  • Approved the compensation of the company’s named executive officers as described in the 2025 proxy statement; and
  • Ratified the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

All three shareholder proposals were defeated: issue report on climate lobbying alignment; issue report on lead-sheathed cables; and assess risks related to discrimination in advertising services.

Vote tallies are considered preliminary until the final results are tabulated and certified by independent inspectors of election. The final results will be posted on Verizon’s website at www.verizon.com/about/investors.
