Quebecor inc. reports consolidated results for third quarter 2022

Montréal, Québec – Quebecor Inc. (“Quebecor” or “the Corporation”) today reported its consolidated financial results for the third quarter of 2022. Quebecor consolidates the financial results of its wholly owned Quebecor Media Inc. (“Quebecor Media”) subsidiary.

Third quarter 2022 highlights

In the third quarter of 2022, Quebecor recorded adjusted cash flows from operations¹ of $403.1 million, a $37.3 million (10.2%) increase, consolidated adjusted EBITDA² of $518.0 million, a $2.3 million (-0.4%) decrease, and revenues of $1.14 billion, a $4.5 million (-0,4%) decrease compared with the same period of 2021.

Ø	The Telecommunications segment’s adjusted cash flows from operations increased by $44.3 million (13.1%), its adjusted EBITDA by $12.7 million (2.7%), and its revenues by $2.7 million (0.3%).

Ø	Videotron Ltd. (“Videotron”) increased its revenues from mobile services and equipment by $30.7 million (12.1%) and from Internet access by $13.6 million (4.5%). The increase in Internet access revenues was due in part to the acquisition of VMedia Inc. (“VMedia”).

Ø	There was a net increase of 99,100 RGUs (1.6%) in the third quarter of 2022, including 36,300 connections (2.2%) to the mobile telephony service and 56,800 subscriptions (3.1%) to Internet access services, of which 36,400 were VMedia customers.

Ø	Consolidated net income attributable to shareholders: $178.4 million ($0.76 per basic share), an increase of $5.3 million ($0.05 per basic share).

Ø	Adjusted income from continuing operating activities:³ $175.0 million ($0.75 per basic share), a decrease of $1.1 million (increase of $0.02 per basic share).

On August 12, 2022, Videotron entered into a definitive agreement with Rogers Communications Inc. (“Rogers”) and Shaw Communications Inc. to acquire Freedom Mobile Inc. (“Freedom Mobile”) for $2.85 billion on a cash-free and debt-free basis. The agreement, which is conditional on regulatory approval, will support the expansion of the Corporation’s telecommunications services in Ontario and Western Canada, and help promote healthy competition in the interest of Canadian consumers. Videotron has obtained the required debt financing commitments for this transaction.

On October 25, 2022, Quebecor indicated its acceptance of the conditions stipulated by the Honourable François-Philippe Champagne, Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry, for the transfer of Freedom Mobile’s spectrum licenses. Minister Champagne made his approval conditional on Videotron retaining any new licenses it acquires for a minimum of 10 years and offering prices in Ontario and Western Canada comparable to its pricing in Québec.

In July 2022, Videotron acquired VMedia, an independent telecommunications provider that is well established in the Canadian market. VMedia becomes a key partner that will make it possible to enhance Quebecor’s offerings across Canada through advantageous bundles that will give Canadian consumers more choice at better prices.

Ø	On October 25, 2022, Event Management Gestev Inc., a subsidiary of the Sports and Entertainment Group, announced that it will be the new manager of the Théâtre du Casino du Lac-Leamy, where it will present and promote unique, diverse programming for show audiences in the Gatineau-Ottawa region.

On November 2, 2022, the Board of Directors of Quebecor declared a quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share on its Class A Multiple Voting Shares (“Class A Shares”) and Class B Subordinate Voting Shares (“Class B Shares”), representing an annual payout of 34%, in line with our previously announced target of 30% to 50% of our free cash flows.

Comments by Pierre Karl Péladeau, President and Chief Executive Officer of Quebecor

“In the third quarter of 2022, Quebecor once again demonstrated its efficient and rigorous operational management and strong financial discipline. As a result, Quebecor increased its adjusted cash flows from operations by 10.2% to $403.1 million. Videotron turned in another excellent performance, posting a $44.3 million or 13.1% increase in adjusted cash flows from operations. Propelled by mobile services and equipment, which remain important growth drivers, and by tight management of operating expenses, Videotron’s adjusted EBITDA increased by 2.7% to $489.5 million during the quarter.

“The Telecommunications segment’s Videotron and Fizz brands also continued gaining mobile market share, with more than 126,000 (8.0%) subscriber connections added in the past 12 months. Subscriptions to Internet access services increased by 70,200 (3.8%) during the same period, including 36,400 VMedia customers.

“Having built close and trusting relationships with our customers over the years, we are particularly proud that Videotron picked up two more honours in recent months: a flash poll by Léger found that Videotron is the telecommunications company with the best customer service in Québec, and Videotron ranked first in several categories, including overall customer satisfaction, in the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission’s (“CRTC”) nation-wide Secret Shopper Project. While we recognize that competition is beneficial for consumers and our customers, we believe that customer service is a decisive factor in choosing a telecom provider and Videotron, which has excelled on this front for more than 20 years, remains the undisputed leader in Canada.

“TVA Group Inc.’s revenues and adjusted EBITDA decreased by $20.2 million and $17.3 million respectively in the third quarter of 2022, mainly because the Broadcasting segment continues to be impacted by advertising market headwinds and a regulatory environment that places us at a disadvantage against the foreign digital giants and a public broadcaster that receives more than a billion dollars per year in government subsidies, and also because of lower volumes in film production and audiovisual services. Nevertheless, to stay competitive and maintain our leading position while delivering the quality programming for which we are known, we continue to invest heavily in content for both our traditional and digital platforms. These investments are paying off and are contributing to our success, as evidenced by the 1.9-point increase in the combined market share of TVA Network and the specialty channels to 40.1%.

“Quebecor’s consolidated EBITDA decreased slightly by $2.3 million to $518.0 million in the third quarter of 2022, reflecting, among other things, these significant investments in original, high-quality content for TVA Network and our Club illico and Vrai platforms.

“We are making every effort to become the 4th major wireless and Internet service provider across Canada and deliver better prices and a robust, reliable network powered by our 5G technology to Canadian consumers. The acquisition in the third quarter of 2022 of VMedia, which has innovative solutions that complement Freedom Mobile’s operations, will also make it easier to offer service bundles and to realize the full potential of both companies across Canada. Although a mediation session on October 27, 2022 in a proceeding instituted before the Competition Tribunal did not produce a negotiated settlement, we remain committed to closing the acquisition of Freedom Mobile and confident in the soundness and merit of our plan. Building on our exemplary track record in Quebec and our proven ability to execute on our strategies in a rigorous and disciplined manner, we look forward to continued growth that will create more value for the benefit of all our stakeholders.

“We also note the CRTC’s recent decision to require the incumbent telecoms Bell, Telus and Rogers to allow access to their wireless networks in order to stimulate competition and offer Canadians more choice at better prices. We plan to move forward on this quickly if the incumbents agree to negotiate in good faith and open up access to their networks, which Bell is still refusing to do.

“In closing, I would like to thank Robert Paré for his dedication and important contribution throughout his eight years as a director. Robert has been a key associate and his expertise has been invaluable.”

COVID-19 pandemic

Since March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has had an impact on some of the Corporation’s quarterly results, more particularly in the Media and the Sports and Entertainment segments. Given the uncertainty around the future evolution of the pandemic, including any major new waves, all future impacts of the health crisis on the results of operations cannot be determined with certainty.

Non-IFRS financial measures

The Corporation uses financial measures not standardized under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), such as adjusted EBITDA, adjusted income from continuing operating activities, adjusted cash flows from operations, free cash flows from continuing operating activities and consolidated net debt leverage ratio, and key performance indicators, including RGU. Definitions of the non-IFRS financial measures and key performance indicator used by the Corporation are provided in the “Definitions” section.

The main favourable variances were:

$7.5 million favourable variance in restructuring of operations and other items;

There was an unfavourable variance at Head Office ($6.9 million), mainly reflecting a change in the allocation of corporate expenses.

Capital stock

On August 3, 2022, the Corporation authorized a normal course issuer bid for a maximum of 1,000,000 Class A Shares representing approximately 1.3% of issued and outstanding Class A Shares, and for a maximum of 6,000,000 Class B Shares representing approximately 3.8% of issued and outstanding Class B Shares as of July 29, 2022. The purchases can be made from August 15, 2022 to August 14, 2023, at prevailing market prices on the open market through the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange or other alternative trading systems in Canada. All shares purchased under the bid will be cancelled.

On August 5, 2022, the Corporation entered into an automatic securities purchase plan (“the plan”) with a designated broker whereby shares may be repurchased under the plan at times when such purchases would otherwise be prohibited pursuant to regulatory restrictions or self-imposed blackout periods. The plan received prior approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange. It came into effect on August 15, 2022 and will terminate on the same date as the normal course issuer bid.

Under the plan, before entering a self-imposed blackout period, the Corporation may, but is not required to, ask the designated broker to make purchases under the normal course issuer bid. Such purchases shall be made at the discretion of the designated broker, within parameters established by the Corporation prior to the blackout periods. Outside the blackout periods, purchases will be made at the discretion of the Corporation’s management.

In the first nine months of 2022, the Corporation purchased and cancelled 7,061,651 Class B Shares for a total cash consideration of $203.8 million (7,064,650 Class B Shares for a total cash consideration of $225.9 million in the same period of 2021) under the normal course issuer bid that expired on August 14, 2022 and the one that come into effect on August 15. The $162.2 million excess of the purchase price over the carrying value of the repurchased Class B Shares was recorded as a reduction in retained earnings ($184.2 million in the same period of 2021).

Dividend

On November 2, 2022, the Board of Directors of Quebecor declared a quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share on its Class A Shares and Class B Shares, payable on December 13, 2022 to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 18, 2022. This dividend is designated an eligible dividend, as provided under subsection 89(14) of the Canadian Income Tax Act and its provincial counterpart.

Board of Directors

After several months of reflection, Robert Paré has announced that he is stepping down as a director after eight years on the boards of the Corporation and of Quebecor Media. Mr. Paré was also a member of Quebecor Media’s Executive Committee. On November 2, 2022, Jean B. Péladeau was named a director of Quebecor and Quebecor Media, and a member of Quebecor Media’s executive committee.

DEFINITIONS

Adjusted EBITDA

In its analysis of operating results, the Corporation defines adjusted EBITDA, as reconciled to net income under IFRS, as net income before depreciation and amortization, financial expenses, loss (gain) on valuation and translation of financial instruments, restructuring of operations and other items, loss on debt refinancing and income tax. Adjusted EBITDA as defined above is not a measure of results that is consistent with IFRS. It is not intended to be regarded as an alternative to IFRS financial performance measures or to the statement of cash flows as a measure of liquidity. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Corporation uses adjusted EBITDA in order to assess the performance of its investment in Quebecor Media. The Corporation’s management and Board of Directors use this measure in evaluating its consolidated results as well as the results of the Corporation’s operating segments. This measure eliminates the significant level of impairment and depreciation/amortization of tangible and intangible assets and is unaffected by the capital structure or investment activities of the Corporation and its business segments.

Adjusted EBITDA is also relevant because it is a component of the Corporation’s annual incentive compensation programs. A limitation of this measure, however, is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in the Corporation’s segments. The Corporation also uses other measures that do reflect such costs, such as adjusted cash flows from operations and free cash flows from continuing operating activities. The Corporation’s definition of adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Table 2 provides a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income as disclosed in Quebecor’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Adjusted income from continuing operating activities

The Corporation defines adjusted income from continuing operating activities, as reconciled to net income attributable to shareholders under IFRS, as net income attributable to shareholders before the gain (loss) on valuation and translation of financial instruments, restructuring of operations and other items, and loss on debt refinancing, net of income tax related to adjustments and net income attributable to non-controlling interest related to adjustments. Adjusted income from continuing operating activities, as defined above, is not a measure of results that is consistent with IFRS. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Corporation uses adjusted income from continuing operating activities to analyze trends in the performance of its businesses. The above-listed items are excluded from the calculation of this measure because they impair the comparability of financial results. Adjusted income from continuing operating activities is more representative for forecasting income. The Corporation’s definition of adjusted income from continuing operating activities may not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Table 3 provides a reconciliation of adjusted income from continuing operating activities to the net income attributable to shareholders’ measure used in Quebecor’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Adjusted cash flows from operations and free cash flows from continuing operating activities

Adjusted cash flows from operations

Adjusted cash flows from operations represents adjusted EBITDA, less additions to property, plant and equipment and to intangible assets (excluding licence acquisitions and renewals). Adjusted cash flows from operations represents funds available for interest and income tax payments, expenditures related to restructuring programs, business acquisitions, licence acquisitions and renewals, payment of dividends, repayment of long-term debt and lease liabilities, and share repurchases. Adjusted cash flows from operations is not a measure of liquidity that is consistent with IFRS. It is not intended to be regarded as an alternative to IFRS financial performance measures or to the statement of cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted cash flows from operations is used by the Corporation’s management and Board of Directors to evaluate the cash flows generated by the operations of all of its segments, on a consolidated basis, in addition to the operating cash flows generated by each segment. Adjusted cash flows from operations is also relevant because it is a component of the Corporation’s annual incentive compensation programs. The Corporation’s definition of adjusted cash flows from operations may not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Free cash flows from continuing operating activities

Free cash flows from continuing operating activities represents cash flows provided by operating activities calculated in accordance with IFRS, less cash flows used for additions to property, plant and equipment and to intangible assets (excluding expenditures related to licence acquisitions and renewals), plus proceeds from disposal of assets. Free cash flows from continuing operating activities is used by the Corporation’s management and Board of Directors to evaluate cash flows generated by the Corporation’s operations. Free cash flows from continuing operating activities represents available funds for business acquisitions, licence acquisitions and renewals, payment of dividends, repayment of long-term debt and lease liabilities, and share repurchases. Free cash flows from continuing operating activities is not a measure of liquidity that is consistent with IFRS. It is not intended to be regarded as an alternative to IFRS financial performance measures or to the statement of cash flows as a measure of liquidity. The Corporation’s definition of free cash flows from continuing operating activities may not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Consolidated net debt leverage ratio

The consolidated net debt leverage ratio represents consolidated net debt, excluding convertible debentures, divided by the trailing 12-month adjusted EBITDA. Consolidated net debt, excluding convertible debentures, represents total long-term debt plus bank indebtedness, lease liabilities, the current portion of lease liabilities and liabilities related to derivative financial instruments, less assets related to derivative financial instruments and cash and cash equivalents. The consolidated net debt leverage ratio serves to evaluate the Corporation’s financial leverage and is used by management and the Board of Directors in its decisions on the Corporation’s capital structure, including its financing strategy, and in managing debt maturity risks. The consolidated net debt leverage ratio excludes convertible debentures because, subject to certain conditions, those debentures can be repurchased at the Corporation’s discretion by issuing Quebecor Class B Shares. Consolidated net debt leverage ratio is not a measure established in accordance with IFRS. It is not intended to be used as an alternative to IFRS measures or the balance sheet to evaluate its financial position. The Corporation’s definition of consolidated net debt leverage ratio may not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Table 6 provides the calculation of consolidated net debt leverage ratio and the reconciliation to balance sheet items reported in Quebecor’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATOR

Revenue-generating unit

The Corporation uses RGU, an industry metric, as a key performance indicator. An RGU represents, as the case may be, subscriptions to the Internet access, television and OTT services, and subscriber connections to the mobile and wireline telephony services. RGU is not a measurement that is consistent with IFRS and the Corporation’s definition and calculation of RGU may not be the same as identically titled measurements reported by other companies or published by public authorities.
