Verizon announced on Monday that the board of directors had appointed former Paypal CEO Dan Schulman as a new CEO of society.
Schulman has replaced Hans Vestberg, who has run the company since 2018.
The company’s shares have flowed approximately 5% on Monday.
Verizon said that Vestberg will remain on the board of directors until the annual meeting of 2026 and will serve as a special advisor until October 4, 2026 to ensure a smooth transition and conclude the agreement to acquire Border communications.
Verizon also announced on Monday that Mark Bertolini would be chairman of the company’s board of directors.
“The Board of Directors is delighted to have Dan as next CEO of Verizon and to embark on a new chapter of growth and leadership in the sector,” said Bertolini in a statement. “Dan is a seasoned and decisive leader with a unique set of experiences, and a proven register of transformative leadership and operational excellence. He is the right leader to trace the next Verizon phase of concentration and financial growth of the increased customer.”
At Paypal, Schulman brought the company’s income from 8 billion to $ 30 billion, according to the announcement, and added “hundreds of millions” new customers for the global payment platform. He has sat on the Board of Directors of Verizon since 2018.
“Verizon is at a critical moment,” Schulman said in a statement. “We have a clear opportunity to redefine our trajectory, by increasing our market share in all market segments, while offering significant growth in our main financial measures. We will maximize our value proposals, reduce our costs to serve and optimize our capital allowance to delight our customers and provide long -term long -term growth.”
Vestberg, who became CEO in 2018 and chairman of the board of directors in 2019, is known to create the company’s 5G network strategy. In a press release, he now said “a good time to spend the stick” to Schulman.
Verizon also reiterated its previous financial orientations of the year fully published in 2025.
In May, the Federal Communications Commission announced that it approved the $ 20 billion agreement in Verizon to acquire Frontier, a fiber optic internet supplier. The president of the FCC, Brendan Carr, had surveyed Verizon for his programs of diversity, equity and inclusion and said that they could be a factor in the border agreement, but the agency gave its blessing to the merger when the company agreed to end these programs.
Verizon said that the agreement will allow it to upgrade and extend frontier network capacities across the country by bringing more fibers to around a million American households. Verizon described the acquisition of “cornerstone” of its expansion of the wide strip expansion.
