Research and Markets: Verizon Could Easily Attain 31% Video Penetration By Year-End 2010 in the Markets Where It Deploys FiOS TV Services

Posted on: Friday, 8 December 2006, 12:00 CST

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c46708) has announced the addition of Spotlight on Television 2.0 Leaders: Verizon Communications, Inc. to their offering.

This report on Verizon delivers a detailed growth model for Verizons FiOS TV efforts. Based on this analysis, it's clear that Verizons FTTP deployment goals and video penetration targets are well within the reach of the company, despite some skepticism by investors and competitors. The model shows that Verizon could easily attain 31% video penetration by year-end 2010 in the markets where it deploys FiOS TV services.

However, even if Verizon meets or exceeds its take-rate goals for FiOS TV, its video subscriber tally will not exceed five million -- the author thinks Verizon could capture 4.34 million customers by year-end 2010, a small number in comparison to its top cable industry rivals. Moreover, despite expected rapid growth, video revenues alone arent going to make a big impact on Verizons bottom-line. Verizon's TV-only revenue could steadily rise from only $14.6 million in Q2 06 to $1.7 billion in Q4 10. Given that Verizon's Q1 06 revenues totaled $22.97 billion, this amount of revenue would translate into only about 7% of Verizon's current quarterly revenue.
