Telus Corp. posted double-digit profit and revenue increases in its latest quarter a day after announcing the acquisition of new spectrum licences for $1.95 billion.
The Vancouver-based company and owner of one of Canada's three national wireless networks says its net income attributable to common shareholders climbed 15.5 per cent to $335 million in the second quarter from $290 million a year earlier.
That equalled 25 cents per share for the three months ended June 30, two cents per share better than the second quarter of 2020.
Adjusted profits were $348 million or 26 cents per share, compared with $316 million or 25 cents per share in the prior year quarter.
Revenues increased 10.3 per cent to $4.1 billion, from $3.7 billion, driven by an increase in customer, mobile phone and fixed customer net additions.
Telus was expected to report 26 cents per share in adjusted profits on $4.08 billion of revenues, according to financial data firm Refinitiv.
