Reuters reported that Toben expects double-digit percentage increases in annual revenues for Verizon Wireless over the next few years and for EBITDA margins to fall between 43 percent to 45 percent for the unit’s three-to-five year planning period. Toben also told analysts that the company is seeing a “great early response” to the $99 unlimited calling plan—from both customers upgrading from cheaper plans, and from customers who spend more than $100 a month. “It doesn’t take that many more of the $79.99 folks to go up to $99.99 to offset it,” said Toben, who expects the plan to boost results.
