Verizon Q1 2026 Earnings Beat Estimates With First Positive Spring Subscriber Gains Since 2013

Verizon reported Q1 2026 adjusted EPS of $1.28, beating estimates of $1.21, and posted its first positive first-quarter postpaid phone subscriber gains since 2013.

A magnitude 7.2 earthquake struck the Yukon region in northern Canada on April 24, the strongest earthquake in that region in 28 years.

The earthquake caused significant shaking across northern Canada, Alaska, and parts of the Pacific Northwest. There were no immediate reports of casualties or major structural damage.

Canadian authorities activated emergency response protocols and conducted damage assessments in affected communities. The US Geological Survey classified the earthquake as significant but noted that damage was relatively limited due to the sparse population in the affected region.

Scientists indicate that the Yukon region sits on active fault lines and is prone to seismic activity. This earthquake serves as a reminder of the importance of earthquake preparedness in tectonically active regions.
