Carrier giant Verizon Communications Inc (VZ) announced plans to reorganize its business segments to just three — Consumer, Business and Verizon Media Group/Oath — to focus better on its customers.

Verizon Consumer Group includes the consumer segment of wireless and wireline businesses, and will be led by Verizon Wireless president Ronan Dunne.
Verizon Business Group includes products and services sold to businesses/government, and will be headed by Tami Erwin — the current executive VP of wireless operations.
The new units will come to effect on the 1st of January, 2019, Verizon said it plans to report its results under the new structure from the second quarter of 2019.
