STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>NEW YORK &#151;</B> Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:VZ) today updated investors on the progress of several initiatives designed to enhance
shareholder value. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">At an investment conference here, Verizon CFO Doreen Toben said that customer demand for and usage of key strategic
Verizon services are steadily increasing, and that adoption of new technologies is continuing to gain traction in the marketplace. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">She
also announced that the company will further increase share repurchases to a total of $1.7 billion in 2006. Verizon began the year with a target of approximately $1 billion in share repurchases, increased that to $1.5 billion by mid-year and today
announced it expected to exceed that figure by approximately $200 million. </FONT></P>

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Toben said two recently closed transactions, involving Idearc Inc. (NYSE:IAR) and Verizon Dominicana, have further strengthened Verizon&#146;s balance sheet and provided additional financial flexibility, creating
value for shareholders. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On Nov. 17, the company completed the spin-off of Idearc to Verizon shareholders. Idearc now owns what were the
Verizon domestic print and Internet yellow pages directories publishing operations, and Verizon distributed a dividend of one share of Idearc common stock for every 20 shares of Verizon common stock to shareholders of record. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As a result of the spin-off, Verizon reduced total debt by more than $7 billion in a debt-for-debt exchange and received approximately $2 billion in
cash. Toben said that the impact of the spin-off on Verizon&#146;s fourth-quarter 2006 earnings, before offsets from Verizon&#146;s interest savings on debt, will be approximately 4 cents per fully diluted share. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Toben added that Verizon will soon restate its financial history for the purposes of comparability, including its former directories business results in
Income From Discontinued Operations. The directories business contributed 29 cents per share to Verizon&#146;s 2006 earnings through Nov. 17, and the full-year 2006 impact of the absence of Idearc earnings would be about 33 cents per share. The
comparable amount for 2005 was 39 cents per share. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:24px;margin-bottom:0px" ALIGN="center"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Proceeds From DR Sale, Fourth Quarter Special Item </B></FONT></P> <P

SIZE="2">that the company will incur book taxes on reinvested earnings, which must be recognized upon the sale, of approximately $500 million. She added that the net effect will be treated as a special item and will not be part of fourth-quarter
adjusted earnings (a non-GAAP measure). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Verizon expects to include from 10 cents to 11 cents in 2006 earnings per share for Verizon
Dominicana through Dec. 1, so the full-year impact would be 11 cents to 12 cents per share. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Sales continue to proceed regarding
Verizon&#146;s interests in Telecomunicaciones de Puerto Rico, Inc. (Puerto Rico Telephone) and Compa&ntilde;ia An&oacute;nima Nacional Tel&eacute;fonos de Venezuela (CANTV, NYSE:VNT). Verizon estimates net cash proceeds of approximately $3 billion
from the sale of its Caribbean and Latin American telecommunications operations in the three separate transactions, announced in April. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">Toben said the full-year 2006 earnings impact of the three sales would be about 22 cents per share before any interest savings effects. This includes about 5 cents to 6 cents per share for CANTV, which is reported as Income From
Unconsolidated Business. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:24px;margin-bottom:0px" ALIGN="center"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Steady Improvement in FiOS Metrics </B></FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Toben also discussed financial and operational metrics for FiOS, Verizon&#146;s next-generation fiber-optic-based Internet and TV services. She said
&#147;all of our FiOS metrics are moving in the right directions and closer to the long-term targets&#148; that the company announced in September. The FiOS initiative&#146;s dilutive impact on earnings will peak in the fourth quarter 2006 and first
quarter 2007, Toben said, with a steady quarterly improvement expected through 2007. </FONT></P>

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As previously announced, Verizon expects FiOS to generate positive operating income beginning in 2009, based in part on growing revenues from FiOS services combined with declining operational costs due to fiber
network efficiencies. Toben noted that the impact of FiOS dilution in 2006 and 2007 does not include costs savings related to moving a customer from copper-based services to fiber-based services. These savings are approximately $110 per line per
year. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:VZ), a New York-based Dow 30 company, is a leader in delivering broadband and other wireline and wireless
