Description: VIV Telefonica Brasil October 16, 2025

Telefônica Brasil S.A. (NYSE: VIV) is Brazil’s largest integrated telecommunications provider, delivering mobile voice and broadband services across 3G, 4G, 4.5G and an expanding 5G network, as well as fixed-line voice, IPTV pay-TV, wholesale interconnection, and a suite of digital offerings such as cloud, security, and fintech solutions. The company monetizes these services through a mix of prepaid and postpaid plans, device sales, and enterprise-focused IT and connectivity solutions sold via retail stores, dealers, and direct channels.

As of FY 2023, VIV reported approximately 98 million mobile subscribers and 23 million fixed-line broadband customers, generating $24 billion in revenue with an EBITDA margin near 38 %. Capital expenditures remain high, with roughly $5 billion invested in 5G rollout and fiber expansion-key to capturing Brazil’s rising data consumption, which has been growing at a 12 % annual rate. The firm’s performance is sensitive to macro-economic variables such as Brazil’s GDP growth (projected ~2 % YoY) and currency volatility, which affect both consumer spending on discretionary services and the cost of imported network equipment.
