what happened
Rogers reported that its third-quarter service revenue and adjusted EBITDA grew 1%, according to TradingView. Free cash flow climbed 65% to roughly CAD 1.4 billion, helped by a 46% drop in capital expenditures.
The company reaffirmed its fiscal 2026 guidance. It also targets a sale of a minority stake in its sports and media assets during the first half of 2027.
why it matters
For investors, the combination of lower capex and higher free cash flow widens the company's room for shareholder payouts and debt reduction. The reaffirmed guidance reduces uncertainty, while monetizing sports assets could add another source of funding. For the Canadian telecom sector, it signals a shift in priorities from investment toward cash returns.
