what happened

Cogeco Inc. issued its fiscal 2027 outlook. According to TradingView, which cites a press release distributed by PR Newswire, revenue is expected to fall by low to mid single digits and adjusted EBITDA by mid to high single digits, both on a constant currency basis.

Capital expenditure is guided at $430 million to $480 million and free cash flow at $505 million to $555 million. The weaker outlook reflects competitive and promotional pressure in the U.S. and elevated customer losses there, while internet subscriber growth in Canada partly offsets the decline.

The subsidiary Cogeco Communications gave a similar outlook, with capex of $425 million to $475 million and free cash flow of $500 million to $550 million.

why it matters

For investors, the key signal is lower expected EBITDA combined with reduced capital spending, which analysts link to the near completion of the network build. The next steps will depend on whether the company can stem U.S. customer losses and deliver savings from cost actions.
