Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Apr 09, 2025
|% Change Since: -1.54%
|Next Earnings Date:Jul 10, 2025
Earnings Call Sentiment|Neutral
The earnings call highlighted the positive impact of transformation initiatives and subscriber growth in Canada, along with a plan for future free cash flow growth. However, revenue declines in both Canada and the US, challenges in the radio advertising market, and a decrease in earnings per share indicate ongoing challenges.Company Guidance
During the Q2 2025 earnings conference call, Cogeco Inc. and Cogeco Communications Inc. provided guidance on their financial and operational outlook. The company expects a material growth in free cash flow over the next two years, driven by the completion of a CapEx investment cycle in rural network builds and network modernization. They reported a decline in consolidated revenue by 2.7%, with a stable EBITDA in constant currency due to operating efficiencies. The net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio held steady at 3.4 turns, and a quarterly dividend of $0.922 per share was declared. For fiscal year 2025, Cogeco Communications is maintaining their annual guidance, anticipating a decrease in consolidated revenue and adjusted EBITDA in the low single digits for Q3. Capital intensity is expected to be approximately 350 basis points higher than Q3 of the previous year. The company's transformation program aims to enhance performance through Canada-US synergies, digitization, advanced analytics, and network expansions, contributing to an expansion of consolidated EBITDA margins.Free Cash Flow Growth Plan
Cogeco plans to materially grow free cash flow over the next two years, enabled by the end of a CapEx investment cycle and low dividend payout ratios providing room for continued dividend growth.
Transformation Program Ahead of Expectations
The transformation efforts have contributed to the expansion of consolidated EBITDA margins, with strong Internet subscriber metrics in Canada and year-over-year improvements in customer satisfaction in the US.
Canadian Subscriber Growth
Cogeco Connection grew its internet customer base by 8,300 subscribers this quarter, with higher customer penetration levels than target in completed regions of Quebec and Ontario.
Increase in Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow in constant currency increased by 12.8%, largely due to lower capital expenditures and financial expenses.
