NOTE: In this presentation we have made forward-looking statements.  These statements are based on our
estimates and assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties.  Forward-looking statements include the
information
concerning
our
possible
or
assumed
future
results
of
operations.
Forward-looking
statements
also
include
those
preceded
or
followed
by
the
words
“anticipates,”
“believes,”
“estimates,”
“hopes”
or
similar
expressions.
For
those
statements,
we
claim
the
protection
of
the
safe
harbor
for
forward-looking
statements
contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The following important factors, along with those
discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), could affect future results and
could cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements: the ability to
realize the expected benefits of our transaction with Vodafone in the timeframe expected or at all; an adverse
change
in
the
ratings
afforded
our
debt
securities
by
nationally
accredited
ratings
organizations
or
adverse
conditions in the credit markets affecting the cost, including interest rates, and/or availability of further financing;
significantly increased levels of indebtedness as a result of the Vodafone transaction; changes in tax laws or
treaties, or in their interpretation; adverse conditions in the U.S. and international economies; material adverse
changes in labor matters, including labor negotiations, and any resulting financial and/or operational impact;
material
changes
in
technology
or
technology
substitution;
disruption
of
our
key
suppliers’
provisioning
of
products
or services; changes in the regulatory environment in which we operate, including any increase in restrictions on our
ability to operate our networks; breaches of network or information technology security, natural disasters, terrorist
attacks or acts of war or significant litigation and any resulting financial impact not covered by insurance; the effects
of competition in the markets in which we operate; changes in accounting assumptions that regulatory agencies,
including the SEC, may require or that result from changes in the accounting rules or their application, which could
result in an impact on earnings; significant increases in benefit plan costs or lower investment returns on plan
assets; and the inability to implement our business strategies.
“Safe Harbor”
Statement
As required by SEC rules, we have provided a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures included in this
presentation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures in materials on our website at www.verizon.com/investor.
