VZC.L Share Price (VZC)

Nice bump in the divi the $ fx rates are helping a tad. The broker is getting quicker at sorting out that divi too, it was taking 10 days or so.

Results beat expectations, keep increasing the divi and reducing the debt and that will keep me happy. Strong dollar should be good for £ payout.

Wireline 6.8 percent Fios revenue growth; 99,000 Fios internet and 20,000 Fios video net additions.

beat expectations and the divi has risen. Comparing with Vod this is still ahead although down overall and currency issues to boot. Add in the divis and things look a bit better even with divi WHT. So it was worth hanging onto these post the sale from Voda afterall. Thought that they would reduce the debt but happy with more divis ...... so far. I hope the bean counters are keeping an eye on the debt but as income is increasing maybe I am worrying to much.

Maybe not good news for VZC but I liked this advert considering its an advert... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QC22ZHo7Iak
