The earnings call presented a strong financial performance with significant improvements in cash flow, debt reduction, and mobile service revenue growth. However, challenges remain in the media segment and wireline services, with ongoing competitive pressure in Quebec affecting pricing strategies.

Company Guidance

During the second quarter of 2025, Quebecor Inc. demonstrated strong financial performance, driven by solid operational outcomes and strategic decisions. The company's consolidated cash flows from operating activities increased by 37% to $538 million, while EBITDA, excluding stock-based compensation, rose by 1% to $605 million. Net operating results grew by 11% to $227 million, and Quebecor reduced its debt by $192 million, achieving a net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 3.20x, the lowest in the Canadian telecom industry. The telecom segment maintained stable revenues at $1.2 billion, with mobile service revenues increasing by 6% due to the addition of 346,000 net new lines and effective pricing strategies. Despite a slight decline in wireline service revenues, new services like Freedom Home Internet and Fizz TV are expected to spur improvement. In the media segment, Group TVA's EBITDA decreased by $11 million to $2 million, primarily due to the absence of major production activities and declining advertising revenues. Quebecor's net income attributable to shareholders reached $218 million, or $0.95 per share, compared to $208 million, or $0.90 per share, in the previous year. The company continues to focus on investing in network improvements and maintaining a strong balance sheet without resorting to asset transactions.
