Sentiment and the balance of points

Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Rogers Communications Inc. reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $5.443 billion, up 2%, and total service revenue of $4.780 billion, up 1%, year over year. All dollar amounts are in Canadian dollars. Adjusted EBITDA was $2.535 billion, up 1%, while adjusted net income was $701 million, down 3%. Net income was $495 million versus $5.768 billion a year earlier; the prior-year result included a $5 billion non-cash gain from revaluing its existing MLSE interest and a $151 million gain on debt redemption.

Cash provided by operating activities rose 9% to $1.658 billion, and free cash flow increased 65% to $1.370 billion. On October 1, 2026, Rogers completed its $4.35 billion cash acquisition of MLSE’s remaining 25% interest, funded through short-term credit facilities, bringing its ownership to 100%. Rogers is pursuing a sale of a minority interest in its sports, media and entertainment assets by the first half of 2027, with proceeds expected to repay debt; any sale would require approval from the leagues governing its professional teams and is not guaranteed.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Filing Explained

The acquisition borrowing matures in September twenty twenty-seven, while the September thirtieth liquidity snapshot predates the facilities’ full draw.

For the completed MLSE purchase, Rogers borrowed $4,367 million under facilities that mature in September 2027, setting the disclosed repayment date for this acquisition financing.

Separately, Rogers received $2,000 million in net proceeds from its September 2026 subordinated-note issuance and intends to use them to redeem $2,000 million of notes due in 2081 in December 2026; that redemption is planned, not reported as completed.

The $8,289 million available-liquidity figure is as of September 30, 2026 and excludes the $4.35 billion facilities, which Rogers says were drawn in full on October 1, 2026.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Consolidated adjusted EBITDA increased 1% this quarter"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
Free cash flow financial
"free cash flow of $1,370 million"
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
Debt leverage ratio financial
"Our debt leverage ratio was 3.7 as at September 30, 2026"
Debt leverage ratio measures how much a company borrows compared with the size of its balance sheet — typically shown as debt divided by equity or by total assets. Think of it like a household mortgage ratio: higher leverage means more borrowing relative to what you own, which can boost returns when things go well but increases interest costs and the chance of trouble if revenue falls. Investors watch it to judge financial risk, borrowing capacity and potential impact on earnings and share value.
Subordinated notes financial
"we issued three tranches of subordinated notes"
Subordinated notes are loans companies issue that rank below other debts for repayment, meaning holders get paid only after higher-priority creditors if the issuer runs into trouble. Because they act like being farther back in line at a buffet, they usually offer higher interest to compensate for greater risk, so investors watch them for potential higher returns but also increased chance of loss and sensitivity to the issuer’s financial health.

•Expanded our 5G/5G+ network nationally, including in New Brunswick and Quebec.
•Completed 350 new wireless sites and upgraded 300 existing sites as part of the $300 million Eastern Ontario Regional Network Cell Gap Project.

•Introduced new wireless product lineups from Apple and Samsung Galaxy.
•Carried 510 terabytes of mobile data on our 5G+ network at stadiums and fan zones in Toronto and Vancouver on FIFA World Cup match days.

Be the first choice for Canadians
•Drew an American League-leading over 3.3 million fans to Toronto Blue Jays games at the Rogers Centre this season - more than 97% of capacity, the club's best attendance since 2016, and third-highest in the MLB.
•Earned the number-one ranking for Rogers radio stations among adults aged 25-53 in Toronto, Edmonton, and Vancouver, as reported by Numeris.

Be a strong national company investing in Canada
•Signed an agreement with Kilmer Sports Inc. to acquire its remaining 25% stake in MLSE on October 1.

Be the growth leader in our industry
•Grew total service revenue by 1% and adjusted EBITDA by 1%.
•Generated strong free cash flow1 of $1,370 million and cash flow from operating activities of $1,658 million.

Update on sports and entertainment assets
On October 1, 2026, we completed the MLSE minority interest acquisition for $4.35 billion in cash, which we funded through short-term credit facilities (see "Managing our Liquidity and Financial Resources" for more information). Upon completing this transaction, we have obtained a 100% ownership interest in MLSE.

MLSE owns the Toronto Maple Leafs (NHL), Toronto Raptors (NBA), Toronto FC (MLS), Toronto Argonauts (CFL), various minor league teams, and associated real estate holdings, including Scotiabank Arena. MLSE also holds interests in certain entities that are complementary to its sports and events businesses. On completion of the MLSE minority interest acquisition, MLSE became a wholly owned subsidiary of Rogers, further enhancing our sports and entertainment portfolio, which also includes the Toronto Blue Jays, Rogers Centre, and Sportsnet.

1 Free cash flow is a capital management measure. See "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures" for more information about this measure.
Rogers Communications Inc.
2
Third Quarter 2026


We are pursuing the sale of a minority interest in our consolidated sports, media, and entertainment assets (Rogers Sports) to third-party investors by the first half of 2027, the proceeds from which we expect to use to repay debt and further improve our balance sheet. We remain committed to unlocking what we view as significant unrecognized value in our sports assets.

Quarterly Financial Highlights

Revenue
Total revenue increased by 2% and total service revenue increased by 1% this quarter, primarily as a result of revenue growth in Media.

Wireless service revenue decreased by 1% this quarter primarily as a result of the decline in mobile phone ARPU due to the cumulative impact of competitive intensity and lower fee revenue as a result of the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission's (CRTC) decision prohibiting certain fees (see "Regulatory Developments" for more information), partially offset by the year-to-date cumulative addition of new customers. Wireless equipment revenue increased by 9%, primarily as a result of a continued shift in the product mix towards higher-value devices, higher device upgrades by existing customers, and disciplined pricing.

Cable service revenue this quarter was in line with the prior year as the impact of retail Internet subscriber growth and base management activities was offset by declines in our Home Phone and Video subscriber bases. Our customer-facing data centre business, which we sold in late 2025, reflected approximately 1% of Cable service revenue in the prior year.

Media revenue increased by 9% this quarter, primarily as a result of higher sports revenue and subscriber revenue from the Warner Bros. Discovery suite of channels, partially offset by lower advertising revenue.

Adjusted EBITDA and margins
Consolidated adjusted EBITDA increased 1% this quarter, driven by EBITDA growth across all our businesses, and our adjusted EBITDA margin decreased by 40 basis points.

Wireless adjusted EBITDA increased by 1%, primarily as a result of higher equipment margins. This gave rise to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 68%, up 130 basis points.

Cable adjusted EBITDA increased by 1% as a result of various efficiency initiatives. This gave rise to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 59%, up 40 basis points. Our customer-facing data centre business, which we sold in late 2025, reflected approximately 0.5% of Cable adjusted EBITDA in the prior year.

Media adjusted EBITDA increased by 12%, primarily due to the flow-through impact of the aforementioned revenue impacts and associated costs.

Net income and adjusted net income
Adjusted net income decreased by 3% this quarter, primarily as a result of higher finance costs, partially offset by higher adjusted EBITDA. Net income decreased by $5,273 million this quarter as it was also impacted by a $5 billion non-cash gain in the prior year to recognize our existing 37.5% interest in MLSE at fair value, which was required as a result of the MLSE Transaction, and the $151 million gain on the redemption of long-term debt in the prior year.

Cash flow, available liquidity, and returns to shareholders
This quarter, we generated cash provided by operating activities of $1,658 million (2025 - $1,515 million), which increased as a result of lower income taxes paid, and free cash flow of $1,370 million (2025 - $829 million), which increased as a result of lower capital expenditures, higher adjusted EBITDA, and lower cash income taxes, partially offset by distributions to non-controlling interests. Our free cash flow generation is expected to further strengthen our balance sheet over time through accelerated repayment of debt.

As at September 30, 2026, we had $8.3 billion of available liquidity2 (December 31, 2025 - $5.9 billion), reflecting $3.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents and $5.1 billion available under our bank and other credit facilities. In September 2026, we issued three tranches of subordinated notes and received net proceeds of $2.0 billion from the issuance. We intend to use the proceeds to redeem our $2.0 billion subordinated notes due 2081 in December 2026 on their first at-par redemption date (see "Managing our Liquidity and Financial Resources"). The $4.35 billion of credit facilities we entered into in September 2026 (see "Managing our Liquidity and Financial Resources") are not included in available liquidity as they were drawn in full on October 1, 2026 to fund the MLSE minority interest acquisition (see "Update on sports and entertainment assets").
2 Available liquidity and debt leverage ratio are capital management measures. See "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures" and "Financial Condition" for more information about these measures.
Rogers Communications Inc.

Third Quarter 2026



Our debt leverage ratio2 was 3.7 as at September 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - 4.0, which reflects the combined results of Rogers including MLSE for the period from the MLSE Transaction closing date (July 1, 2025) to December 31, 2025, and standalone Rogers results prior to July 2025 in trailing 12-month adjusted EBITDA). See "Financial Condition" for more information.

We also returned $270 million in dividends to shareholders this quarter and we declared a $0.50 per share dividend on October 22, 2026.

Service revenue
The 1% decrease in service revenue this quarter was a result of the decline in mobile phone ARPU due to the cumulative impact of competitive intensity and lower fee revenue as a result of the CRTC's decision prohibiting certain fees (see "Regulatory Developments" for more information), partially offset by the year-to-date cumulative addition of new customers. Service revenue year to date was in line with the prior year.

The decreases in postpaid gross and net additions this quarter, and net additions year to date, were primarily a result of promotional discipline and lower overall market activity in Canada.

The increase in postpaid gross additions year to date was a result of the highly promotional and competitive Canadian market activity in the first quarter.

Third Quarter 2026



Equipment revenue
The 9% increase in equipment revenue this quarter and 6% increase year to date were primarily a result of:
•a continued shift in the product mix towards higher-value devices;
•higher device upgrades by existing customers; and
•disciplined pricing; partially offset by
•a decrease in new subscribers purchasing devices.

Operating costs
Cost of equipment
The 2% increase in the cost of equipment this quarter and 1% increase year to date were a result of the equipment revenue changes discussed above.

Other operating costs

Revenue
The 9% increase in revenue this quarter was a result of:
•higher sports revenue, including:
•higher game day attendance at the Toronto Blue Jays;
•the NHL regular season beginning in September this year; and
•higher sports league and other revenue related to other sporting events held at our venues;
•higher advertising revenue on Sportsnet; and
•higher subscriber revenue from the Warner Bros. Discovery suite of channels; partially offset by
•lower advertising revenue as a result of ongoing softness in non-sports media advertising.

The 44% increase in revenue year to date was primarily a result of the consolidation of MLSE beginning in the second half of 2025, which contributed $0.79 billion in revenue in the first and second quarters of 2026. Excluding the consolidation of MLSE, organic revenue growth was 6% year to date as a result of higher game day attendance at the Toronto Blue Jays and higher subscriber revenue from the Warner Bros. Discovery suite of channels, partially offset by lower advertising revenue.

Operating costs
The 9% increase in operating costs this quarter was a result of:
•higher player salaries and related costs at the Toronto Blue Jays and the Toronto Maple Leafs, including as a result of the NHL regular season beginning in September this year; and
•higher programming costs.

The 38% increase year to date was primarily a result of the consolidation of MLSE beginning in the second half of 2025, which contributed $0.64 billion in costs in the first and second quarters of 2026. Excluding the consolidation of MLSE, the organic increase in operating costs was 7% year to date and primarily reflects higher player salaries and other game day costs at the Toronto Blue Jays and higher programming costs.

Adjusted EBITDA
The increases in adjusted EBITDA this quarter and year to date were a result of the revenue and expense changes discussed above.

1    Includes additions to property, plant and equipment net of proceeds on disposition and accrued government grants, but does not include expenditures for spectrum licences, additions to right-of-use assets, or assets acquired through business combinations.
2    Capital intensity is a supplementary financial measure. See "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures" for an explanation as to the composition of this measure.

We continue to (i) expand the reach and capacity of our 5G network across the country and (ii) invest in fibre deployments, including fibre-to-the-home (FTTH), in our cable network as we expand our network footprint to reach more homes and businesses, including in rural, remote, and Indigenous communities. These investments are expected to strengthen network resilience and stability and help us bridge the digital divide by expanding our network further into rural and underserved areas through participation in various programs and projects. In April 2026, we updated our 2026 capital expenditure guidance range (see "Financial Guidance") as a direct reflection of the ongoing impacts from heightened competitive intensity and recent regulatory decisions. Our strategic priorities remain unchanged and our current capital expenditure guidance range continues to support these priorities. We expect to achieve our guidance range through (i) ongoing investments progressing at a slower pace, (ii) the deferral, cancellation, or sale of certain projects, and (iii) lower capital costs for projects, most predominantly affecting Wireless and Cable.

Wireless
In addition to the above, the decreases in capital expenditures in Wireless this quarter and year to date were due to the impact of $133 million and $223 million (2025 - $13 million and $13 million), respectively, of proceeds received on the sale of certain network assets, which reduced capital expenditures. We continued to expand and enhance our wireless network through investments in network development and 5G deployment. We are actively deploying advanced spectrum assets, including the ongoing rollout of 3500 MHz spectrum and 3800 MHz spectrum. These investments build on our existing 5G infrastructure in the 600 MHz spectrum band, enabling greater speed, lower latency, and improved reliability for customers across urban and rural areas.

Cable
In addition to the above, the decreases in capital expenditures in Cable this quarter and year to date were a result of customers increasingly choosing to self-install new products. We also sold certain cable network assets for $86 million and $132 million (2025 - nil and $47 million) this quarter and year to date, respectively, the proceeds from which reduced capital expenditures. The sold assets were associated with under-construction rural fibre network projects we have deprioritized in the current environment. We are growing our network through expanded fibre deployments to increase our FTTH distribution and to extend our service footprint. At the same time, we are enhancing our network by upgrading our DOCSIS 3.1 platform as we transition to DOCSIS 4.0 to improve network resilience, stability, and capacity while delivering faster speeds. As part of this upgrade, we are rolling out mid-split technology (which has a greater number of frequencies than older technology and also allocates a greater number of frequencies to uploading data) in Ontario and Eastern Canada, significantly increasing upload speeds. These advancements leverage the latest technologies to provide greater bandwidth, improved performance, and an enhanced customer experience as we advance our connected home roadmap.

Media
The decrease in capital expenditures in Media this quarter was a result of lower modernization costs at Scotiabank Arena as construction nears completion. The increase year to date reflects higher costs in the first half of the year related to the continued modernization of Rogers Centre and Scotiabank Arena.

Corporate
The decreases in capital expenditures in Corporate this quarter and year to date primarily reflect the impact of $55 million (2025 - nil and $5 million) of proceeds received on the sale of certain real estate (land and building) assets.

Capital intensity
Capital intensity decreased this quarter and year to date as a result of the revenue growth and capital expenditure changes discussed above.

The restructuring, acquisition and other costs excluding Shaw Transaction integration-related costs in the third quarter and year to date in 2025 and 2026 primarily include severance and other departure-related costs associated with the targeted restructuring of our employee base, specifically including $120 million arising from a voluntary departure program in the second quarter of 2026. Year to date in 2026, we also incurred costs associated with certain litigation.

In 2025, the third quarter costs also included expenses related to closing the MLSE Transaction and real estate rationalization programs. Year to date in 2025, the costs also included expenses directly related to completing the network transaction and an unfavourable regulatory decision related to retransmission of distant signals.

The Shaw Transaction integration-related costs in 2025 and 2026 consisted of incremental costs supporting integration activities related to the Shaw Transaction.

Concurrent with our US CP issuances and US dollar-denominated non-revolving credit facility borrowings (in 2025), we entered into debt derivatives to hedge the foreign currency risk associated with the principal and interest components of the borrowings. See "Financial Risk Management" for more information.

In September 2026, to fund the MLSE minority interest acquisition (see "Update on sports and entertainment assets"), we entered into four non-revolving credit facilities with an aggregate limit of $4.35 billion that mature in September 2027. In October 2026, we borrowed US$3,077 million ($4,367 million) under these facilities upon closing the MLSE minority interest acquisition. Concurrent with the borrowings, we entered into debt derivatives to hedge the foreign currency risk associated with the principal and interest components of the borrowings.

Long-term debt

In June 2025, we repaid the $1 billion outstanding under the April 2026 tranche of our $6 billion term loan and terminated the facility.

In 2025, in connection with the network transaction, we paid an aggregate of approximately $30 million to the consenting holders of our outstanding senior notes for their consent to certain clarifying amendments to the indentures governing those securities concurrently with the closing of the network transaction plus approximately $18 million of other directly attributable transaction costs. These costs are being amortized into finance costs over the remaining terms of the underlying notes using the effective interest method.

In July 2025, to partially fund the MLSE Transaction, we borrowed US$1.3 billion ($1.8 billion) under our revolving credit facility (which was subsequently repaid using the proceeds from the network transaction) and US$1.5 billion ($2 billion) under two new $1 billion non-revolving credit facilities that matured in July 2026.

In July 2026, we amended the terms of our $4 billion revolving credit facility to, among other things, extend the maturity date of the $3 billion tranche to July 2031, from September 2030, and the $1 billion tranche to July 2029, from September 2028.

The subordinated notes due 2056 can be redeemed at par on July 31, 2031, or on any subsequent interest payment date. The three issuances of subordinated notes due 2057 can be redeemed at par on October 31, 2031, October 31, 2036, and October 31, 2031, respectively, or on any subsequent interest payment date. The three issuances of subordinated notes due 2055 can be redeemed at par on February 15, 2030, February 15, 2035, and February 15, 2030, respectively, or on any subsequent interest payment date.

2026
In March 2026, we issued two tranches of subordinated notes, consisting of:
•US$750 million due 2056 with an initial coupon of 6.875% for the first five years; and
•$1.25 billion due 2056 with an initial coupon of 6.250% for the first five years.

Concurrent with the US dollar-denominated issuances, we entered into debt derivatives to convert all interest and principal payment obligations to Canadian dollars. We received net proceeds of $2.3 billion from the issuance, and we used the proceeds to repay debt.

In September 2026, we issued three tranches of subordinated notes, consisting of:
•US$500 million due 2057 with an initial coupon of 7.150% for the first five years;
•US$500 million due 2057 with an initial coupon of 7.400% for the first ten years; and
•$600 million due 2057 with an initial coupon of 6.000% for the first five years.

Concurrent with the US dollar-denominated issuances, we entered into debt derivatives to convert all interest and principal payment obligations to Canadian dollars. We received net proceeds of $2.0 billion from the issuance, and we intend to use the proceeds to redeem our $2.0 billion subordinated notes due 2081 in December 2026 on their first at-par redemption date.

Each of the $600 million and US$500 million 7.15% subordinated notes can be redeemed at par on their five-year anniversary or on any subsequent interest payment date. The US$500 million 7.4% subordinated notes can be redeemed at par on their ten-year anniversary or on any subsequent interest payment date. The subordinated notes are unsecured and subordinated obligations of RCI. Payment on these notes will, under certain circumstances, be subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of our senior indebtedness, including our senior notes, debentures, and bank credit facilities.

2025
In February 2025, we issued three tranches of subordinated notes, consisting of:
•US$1.1 billion due 2055 with an initial coupon of 7.00% for the first five years;
•US$1 billion due 2055 with an initial coupon of 7.125% for the first ten years; and
•$1 billion due 2055 with an initial coupon of 5.625% for the first five years.

Concurrent with these US dollar-denominated issuances, we entered into debt derivatives to convert all interest and principal payment obligations to Canadian dollars. We received net proceeds of $4.0 billion from the issuances.

The US$1.1 billion and the Cdn$1 billion notes can be redeemed at par on their five-year anniversary or on any subsequent interest payment date. The US$1 billion notes can be redeemed at par on their ten-year anniversary or on any subsequent interest payment date. The subordinated notes are unsecured and subordinated obligations of RCI. Payment on these notes will, under certain circumstances, be subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of our senior indebtedness, including our senior notes, debentures, and bank credit facilities.

Repayment of senior notes and related derivative settlements
2026
In September 2026, we repaid the entire outstanding principal of our $500 million 5.65% senior notes at maturity. There were no derivatives associated with these senior notes.

2025
In March 2025, we repaid the entire outstanding principal of our US$1 billion 2.95% senior notes and settled the associated debt derivatives at maturity. As a result, we repaid $1,344 million, including $95 million received on settlement of the associated debt derivatives.

In April 2025, we repaid the entire outstanding principal of our $1.25 billion 3.10% senior notes at maturity. There were no derivatives associated with these senior notes.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we purchased $1,205 million principal amount of our Canadian dollar-denominated senior notes and US$1,738 million principal amount of our US dollar-denominated senior notes, paying the note holders $1,147 million and US$1,411 million, respectively, plus accrued interest, for the purchase of those senior notes. In connection with our purchase of the US dollar-denominated senior notes, we also partially settled the associated debt derivatives.

In September 2026, we issued three tranches of subordinated notes and received net proceeds of $2.0 billion from the issuance. We intend to use the proceeds to redeem our $2.0 billion subordinated notes due 2081 in December 2026 on their first at-par redemption date (see "Managing our Liquidity and Financial Resources").

Our $815 million Canada Infrastructure Bank credit agreement is not included in available liquidity as it can only be drawn upon for use in broadband projects under the Universal Broadband Fund, and therefore is not available for other general purposes. This quarter and year to date, we borrowed nil under this facility.

The $4.35 billion of credit facilities we entered into in September 2026 (see "Managing our Liquidity and Financial Resources") are also not included in available liquidity as they were drawn in full on October 1, 2026 to fund the MLSE minority interest acquisition (see "Update on sports and entertainment assets").

Weighted average cost of borrowings
Our weighted average cost of all borrowings was 5.02% as at September 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - 4.78%) and our weighted average term to maturity was 8.3 years (December 31, 2025 - 8.6 years). These figures reflect the expected repayment of our subordinated notes on their respective at-par redemption dates or first interest reset dates, as applicable.

1    For the purposes of calculating adjusted net debt and debt leverage ratio, we believe adjusting 50% of the value of our subordinated notes, excluding our $2.0 billion subordinated notes due 2081 which we intend to redeem in December 2026, is appropriate as this methodology factors in certain circumstances with respect to priority for payment and this approach is commonly used to evaluate debt leverage by rating agencies.
2    For the purposes of calculating adjusted net debt and debt leverage ratio, we have added the deferred government grant liability relating to our Canada Infrastructure Bank facility to reflect the inclusion of the cash drawings.
3    Adjusted net debt is a capital management measure. See "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures" for more information about this measure.
4 As at December 31, 2025, trailing 12-month adjusted EBITDA reflects the combined results of Rogers including MLSE for the period from the MLSE Transaction closing date (July 1, 2025) to December 31, 2025, and standalone Rogers results prior to July 2025.

For the purposes of calculating adjusted net debt and debt leverage ratio as at September 30, 2026, we adjusted 50% of the value of all our subordinated notes except for our $2.0 billion subordinated notes due 2081, which we intend to redeem in December 2026 using the net proceeds from our issuance of subordinated notes in September 2026 (see "Managing our Liquidity and Financial Resources"). This treatment is aligned with the approach commonly used to evaluate debt leverage by rating agencies.

We intend to manage our debt leverage ratio primarily through combined operational synergies (cost savings and revenue enhancements to be achieved in the context of business acquisitions), organic growth in adjusted EBITDA, proceeds from asset sales and monetizations (including a sale of a minority interest in Rogers Sports), equity financing, and debt repayment, as applicable. Our free cash flow generation is expected to further strengthen our balance sheet over time through accelerated repayment of debt.

Financial Risk Management

This section should be read in conjunction with "Financial Risk Management" in our 2025 Annual MD&A. We use derivative instruments to manage financial risks related to our business activities. We only use derivatives to manage risk and not for speculative purposes. We also manage our exposure to both fixed and fluctuating interest rates and had fixed the interest rate on 96.0% of our outstanding debt, including short-term borrowings, as at September 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - 89.1%).

Debt derivatives
We use cross-currency interest rate exchange agreements, forward cross-currency interest rate exchange agreements, and foreign currency forward contracts (collectively, debt derivatives) to manage risks from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates associated with our US dollar-denominated senior notes, debentures, subordinated notes, lease liabilities, credit facility borrowings, and US CP borrowings. We typically designate the debt derivatives related to our senior notes, debentures, subordinated notes, and lease liabilities as hedges for accounting purposes against the foreign exchange risk or interest rate risk associated with specific issued and forecast debt instruments. Debt derivatives related to our credit facility and US CP borrowings, with the exception of the interest rate swaps acquired in the MLSE Transaction, have not been designated as hedges for accounting purposes.

Credit facilities and US CP
Below is a summary of the debt derivatives we entered into and settled related to our credit facility borrowings and US CP program during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

As at September 30, 2026, we had US$17,661 million (December 31, 2025 - US$15,911 million) in US dollar-denominated senior notes, debentures, and subordinated notes, of which all of the associated foreign exchange risk had been hedged using debt derivatives, at an average rate of $1.296/US$ (December 31, 2025 - $1.287/US$).

In March 2025, we repaid the entire outstanding principal amount of our US$1 billion 2.95% senior notes and settled the associated debt derivatives at maturity, resulting in $95 million received on settlement of the associated debt derivatives.

In July 2025, in connection with the offers to repurchase certain of our US dollar-denominated senior notes, we partially settled the associated debt derivatives on the accepted senior notes.

See "Mark-to-market value" for more information about our debt derivatives.

Expenditure derivatives
We use foreign currency forward contracts and option contracts (expenditure derivatives) to manage the foreign exchange risk in our operations, designating them as hedges for accounting purposes for certain of our forecast operational and capital expenditures. In 2025, as a result of the MLSE Transaction, we acquired expenditure derivatives and other foreign exchange options that had previously been entered into by MLSE. The other foreign exchange options are effective economic hedges against future US dollar-denominated expenditures; however, they cannot be designated as hedges for accounting purposes. Changes in their fair values are recognized in "change in fair value of derivative instruments" in "finance costs".

See "Mark-to-market value" for more information about our expenditure derivatives.

Equity derivatives
We use total return swaps (equity derivatives) to hedge the market price appreciation risk of the Class B Non-Voting Shares granted under our stock-based compensation programs. The equity derivatives have not been designated as hedges for accounting purposes.

As at September 30, 2026, we had equity derivatives outstanding for 6.5 million (December 31, 2025 - 5.5 million) Class B Non-Voting Shares with a weighted average price of $48.20 (December 31, 2025 - $46.81).

In March 2026, we entered into 1 million equity derivatives with a weighted average price of $55.23.

In April 2026, we reset the pricing on 0.2 million existing equity derivatives, resulting in net proceeds of $0.6 million. We also executed extension agreements on all equity derivative contracts under substantially the same commitment terms and conditions with revised expiry dates to April 2027 (from April 2026). The weighted average cost was adjusted to $48.20 per share.

See "Mark-to-market value" for more information about our equity derivatives.

Subsidiary equity derivatives
We have entered into cross-currency interest rate exchange agreements to manage the foreign exchange risk of our subsidiary equity investment (subsidiary equity derivatives). The subsidiary equity derivatives economically hedge our US dollar-denominated exposures arising from the subsidiary equity investment but cannot be designated as hedges for accounting purposes. These subsidiary equity derivatives convert an 8% US dollar-denominated cash flow into a Cdn$ rate of 7.16% until maturity on a quarterly basis.

See "Mark-to-market value" for more information about our subsidiary equity derivatives.

Commitments and Contractual Obligations

See our 2025 Annual MD&A for a summary of our obligations under firm contractual arrangements, including commitments for future payments under long-term debt arrangements and lease arrangements as at December 31, 2025. These are also discussed in notes 3, 19, and 32 of our 2025 Annual Audited Consolidated Financial Statements.

Except as otherwise disclosed in this MD&A, as at September 30, 2026, there have been no material changes to our material contractual obligations, as identified in our 2025 Annual MD&A, since December 31, 2025.

Regulatory Developments

See "Regulation in our Industry" in our 2025 Annual MD&A for a discussion of the significant regulations that affected our operations as at March 6, 2026. The following are the relevant developments since that date.

Millimetre Wave (mmWave) Spectrum Licence Auction
On September 24, 2026, Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada announced that the mmWave spectrum licence auction originally scheduled to start on October 19, 2027 has been rescheduled to start on January 25, 2028.

Sovereign Internet
On September 15, 2026, the Government of Canada announced its intention to support the development of a new Internet network to provide sovereign connectivity across Canada, including northern and Arctic regions, and to establish more direct international links to Europe and Asia. The initiative forms part of the government's broader strategy to strengthen Canada's digital sovereignty, enhance network resilience, reduce reliance on foreign infrastructure, and support growing demand for connectivity and data-intensive applications such as artificial intelligence. Governance, ownership, and funding models have yet to be determined.

Self-service Mechanisms
On April 24, 2026, the CRTC issued Telecom Regulatory Policy CRTC 2026-78, Enhancing self-service mechanisms, requiring service providers to, among other things, ensure customers can modify and cancel their plans through a self-service mechanism. The definition of "self-service" includes any mechanism that is easy to use and enables a customer to

perform actions in relation to their service plan, including modification and cancellation, without interacting with a live customer service representative. The new requirements will come into effect on April 26, 2027.

Prohibition of Fees
On March 12, 2026, the CRTC issued Telecom Regulatory Policy CRTC 2026‑43, Prohibition of fees that are a barrier to switching cellphone and Internet plans, regarding fees incurred as a result of activating or modifying telecommunications service plans. The policy amends both the Internet Code and the Wireless Code to add a new definition of "activation or modification fee", which amendments became effective on June 12, 2026. On June 30, 2026, the CRTC issued Notice of Consultation CRTC 2026-155, Show cause and call for comments - Compliance with the prohibition of fees that are a barrier to switching cellphone and Internet plans, requiring each of Rogers, Bell, and Telus to show cause why certain fees charged by those carriers that the CRTC believes may be in contravention of Telecom Regulatory Policy 2026-43 are not in violation of sections 24 and 27.04 of the Telecommunications Act and Telecom Regulatory Policy 2026-43. Submissions addressing the issues were due to the CRTC by August 31, 2026, with replies due by September 10, 2026.

CRTC Codes of Conduct
On April 13, 2026, in Telecom Regulatory Policy CRTC 2026-67, Enhancing customer notifications, the CRTC amended the Wireless Code and the Internet Code to set out what information must be included in notices sent to customers before the end of their contract and to require notifications to customers before the end of a time-limited discount or promotion and when their data usage reaches $50 when roaming internationally. The new requirements will come into effect on April 13, 2027.

Further, on September 10, 2026, the CRTC issued Telecom Regulatory Policy CRTC 2026-238, Making it easier for consumers to shop for Internet services, requiring Internet service providers covered by the Internet Code to post additional information about Internet services by advertising and contractually disclosing (i) typical download and upload speeds, including ensuring customers receive at least 95% of those committed speeds during "peak hours" (defined as weekdays between 7:00pm and 11:00pm) and 100% of those speeds outside peak hours and (ii) a latency range for each service plan using defined categories (less than 50 ms, 51-150 ms, or greater than 151 ms). The CRTC has required this information be provided in contracts, critical information summaries, and marketing materials. The new requirements will come into effect on March 10, 2027.

Online Streaming Act
On May 21, 2026, the CRTC issued Broadcasting Regulatory Policies CRTC 2026-95 and 2026-96, which introduced (i) a new financial contribution requirement of 1.55% of annual Canadian broadcasting revenues to support a new Services of Exceptional Importance Fund (SEIF) applicable to all broadcasting ownership groups with annual revenues of at least $100 million and (ii) a new Canadian Programming Expenditures (CPE) framework. On June 3, 2026, the Government of Canada directed the CRTC to review its decision to regulate online streamers and Canadian broadcasters and stated it would be issuing new policy directions to the CRTC requiring it to adjust its implementation of the Online Streaming Act.

Updates to Risks and Uncertainties

See "Risk Management" and "Regulation in our Industry" in our 2025 Annual MD&A for a discussion of the principal risks and uncertainties that could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results as at March 6, 2026, which should be reviewed in conjunction with this MD&A. The following updates and supplements those risks and uncertainties.

Monetization of sports, media, and entertainment assets
We intend to sell a minority interest in Rogers Sports (see "Update on sports and entertainment assets") and use the proceeds therefrom to repay debt. While we believe there is a significant market for these assets, there is no guarantee we will be successful in selling a minority interest, whether at the expected investment amount, within the anticipated timing, or at all. Such a sale would also require approval from the various leagues governing our professional sports teams, which is not guaranteed. We may not proceed with, or complete, any sale of a minority interest in Rogers Sports, whether at the expected investment amount, within the anticipated timing, or at all, due to alternative opportunities or requirements, general economic and market conditions, or other internal or external considerations. Any sale of a minority interest in Rogers Sports, if completed, may be at a valuation that is less than expected or may not raise the anticipated proceeds and may not unlock significant value from our sports assets. Additionally, we may use the proceeds from the sale of a minority interest in Rogers Sports, if completed, for other purposes, whether due to alternative opportunities or requirements, general economic and market conditions, or other internal or external considerations.

Sports franchises
After obtaining a 100% ownership interest in MLSE (see "Update on sports and entertainment assets"), our exposure to risks associated with owning and operating sports franchises and venues has increased.

Government broadband subsidy programs
We have agreements related to the Government of Canada's Universal Broadband Fund (UBF) and the Government of Ontario's Accelerated High-Speed Internet Program (AHSIP) under which we have committed to building networks

capable of delivering Internet services to unserved or underserved regions. We have assigned the construction of certain of these lots to various third parties who have agreed, among other things, to complete construction in accordance with the standards and timelines contained within our agreements with the governments. Notwithstanding these third-party arrangements, we remain responsible for the obligations to the respective governments. Our results and financial condition could be adversely affected if these third parties do not fulfill the obligations assigned to them as we would need to take steps to ensure construction is completed as required, which steps could include us incurring additional capital expenditures (and additional indebtedness to fund those capital expenditures) or deferring or cancelling other projects.

Material Accounting Policies and Estimates

See our 2025 Annual MD&A and our 2025 Annual Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto for a discussion of the accounting policies and estimates that are critical to the understanding of our business operations and the results of our operations.

New accounting pronouncements adopted in 2026
We adopted the following IFRS amendments in 2026. They did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
•Amendments to IFRS 9, Financial Instruments and IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures, clarifying both the classification of financial assets linked to environmental, social, and governance as well as the timing in which a financial asset or financial liability is derecognized when using electronic payment systems.

Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
The IASB has not issued any new or amended accounting pronouncements in 2026.

The IASB has issued the following new standard that will become effective in future years:
•IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (replacing IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements), with an aim to improve the structure and content of the primary financial statements and comparability between issuers (January 1, 2027). The focus of IFRS 18 is on presentation in the statement of income by requiring income and expenses to be classified into operating, investing, and financing categories. The main business activities of a company drive classification of income and expense into appropriate categories and further disaggregation of operating expense line items will be required in the statement of income. It also introduces defined subtotals of "operating profit" and "profit before financing and income taxes" in the statement of income to improve comparability between companies. Impacts on the statement of cash flows include eliminating classification options for interest and dividend receipts (must be classified as investing) and payments (must be classified as financing). In addition, IFRS 18 provides guidance on the disclosure of "management-defined performance measures" in relation to the statement of income, including reconciliation requirements.

We are continuing to assess the impacts IFRS 18 will have on our consolidated financial statements. We expect our consolidated statements of income will be presented differently under IFRS 18 and there will be recategorizations of certain line items in the statements of income and statements of cash flows.

Transactions with related parties
We have entered into business transactions with Dream Unlimited Corp. (Dream), which is controlled by our Director Michael J. Cooper. Dream is a real estate company that rents spaces in office and residential buildings. Total amounts paid to this related party were nominal for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

We have also entered into certain transactions with our controlling shareholder and companies it controls. These transactions are subject to formal agreements approved by the Audit and Risk Committee. Total amounts paid to these related parties were less than $1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

We have also entered into certain transactions with the Shaw Family Group. Total transactions with the Shaw Family Group during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 were less than $1 million.

In addition, we assumed a liability through the Shaw Transaction related to a legacy pension arrangement with one of our directors whereby the director will be paid $1 million per month until March 2035, $3 million and $9 million of which was paid during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively. The remaining liability of $77 million is included in "accounts payable and accrued liabilities" (for the amount to be paid within the next twelve months) or "other long-term liabilities".

We recognized these transactions at the amounts agreed to by the related parties, which were also approved by the Audit and Risk Committee. The amounts owing for these services were unsecured, interest-free, and generally due for payment in cash within one month of the date of the transaction.

Controls and procedures
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting this quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Seasonality
Our operating results generally vary from quarter to quarter as a result of changes in general economic conditions and seasonal fluctuations, among other things, in each of our reportable segments. This means our results in one quarter are not necessarily indicative of how we will perform in a future quarter. Wireless, Cable, and Media each have unique seasonal aspects to, and certain other historical trends in, their businesses. For specific discussions of the seasonal trends affecting our reportable segments, refer to our 2025 Annual MD&A.

Financial Guidance

On April 22, 2026, concurrently with the release of our first quarter 2026 results, we updated our consolidated guidance ranges for select full-year 2026 financial metrics that were originally provided on January 29, 2026 as a direct reflection of the ongoing impacts from heightened competitive intensity and recent regulatory decisions. This press release is available under Rogers' profile on SEDAR+ at sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at sec.gov.

Key Performance Indicators

We measure the success of our strategy using a number of key performance indicators that are defined and discussed in our 2025 Annual MD&A and this MD&A. We believe these key performance indicators allow us to appropriately measure our performance against our operating strategy and against the results of our peers and competitors. The following key performance indicators, some of which are supplementary financial measures (see "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures"), are not measurements in accordance with IFRS. They include:
•subscriber counts;
•Wireless;
•Cable; and
•homes passed (Cable);
•Wireless subscriber churn (churn);
•Wireless mobile phone average revenue per user
(ARPU);
•Cable average revenue per account (ARPA);
•Cable customer relationships;
•Cable market penetration (penetration);
•capital intensity; and
•total service revenue.

Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures

We use the following "non-GAAP financial measures" and other "specified financial measures" (each within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities law). These are reviewed regularly by management and the Board in assessing our performance and making decisions regarding the ongoing operations of our business and its ability to generate cash flows. Some or all of these measures may also be used by investors, lending institutions, and credit rating agencies as indicators of our operating performance, of our ability to incur and service debt, and as measurements to value companies in the telecommunications sector. These are not standardized measures under IFRS, so may not be reliable ways to compare us to other companies.

NOTE 1: NATURE OF THE BUSINESS

Rogers Communications Inc. is Canada's communications, sports and entertainment company. Substantially all of our operations and sales are in Canada. RCI is incorporated in Canada and its registered office is located at 333 Bloor Street East, Toronto, Ontario, M4W 1G9. RCI's shares are publicly traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX: RCI.A and RCI.B) and on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: RCI).

We, us, our, Rogers, Rogers Communications, and the Company refer to Rogers Communications Inc. and its subsidiaries. RCI refers to the legal entity Rogers Communications Inc., not including its subsidiaries. Rogers also holds interests in various investments and ventures.

We report our results of operations in three reportable segments. Each segment and the nature of its business is as follows:
SegmentPrincipal activities
WirelessWireless telecommunications operations for Canadian consumers, businesses, the public sector, and wholesale providers.
CableCable telecommunications operations, including Internet, television and other video (Video), Satellite, telephony (Home Phone), and home monitoring services for Canadian consumers and businesses, and network connectivity through our fibre network to support a range of voice, data, networking, hosting, and cloud-based services for the business, public sector, and carrier wholesale markets.
MediaA diversified portfolio of media properties, including sports media and entertainment, sports team ownership, television and radio broadcasting, specialty channels, and digital media.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, Wireless and Cable were operated by our wholly owned subsidiary, Rogers Communications Canada Inc. (RCCI), and certain other subsidiaries. Media was operated by our wholly owned subsidiary, Rogers Media Inc., its subsidiaries, and Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment Ltd. (MLSE). Effective July 2025, TSC was transferred from the Media reportable segment to Corporate Items, consistent with changes to its management structure. Comparative results have been recast to reflect this change, with no impact on consolidated results.

Our operating results are subject to seasonal fluctuations that materially impact quarter-to-quarter operating results and thus, one quarter's operating results are not necessarily indicative of a subsequent quarter's operating results. These typical fluctuations are described in note 1 to our annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 (2025 financial statements).

References in these financial statements to the Shaw Transaction are to our acquisition of Shaw Communications Inc. (Shaw) on April 3, 2023. For additional details regarding the Shaw Transaction, see note 3 to our 2024 financial statements. References to the MLSE Transaction are to our acquisition of BCE Inc.'s (Bell) indirect 37.5% interest in MLSE on July 1, 2025. For additional details, see "MLSE Transaction" in our 2025 Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) and our 2025 financial statements. References to the MLSE minority interest acquisition are to our acquisition of the remaining 25% interest in MLSE from Kilmer Sports Inc., which was completed on October 1, 2026. For additional details, see "Update on sports and entertainment assets" in our Q3 2026 MD&A. References to the "network transaction" are to our sale of a non-controlling interest in Backhaul Network Services Inc. (BNSI), a Canadian subsidiary of Rogers that owns a minor part of our wireless network. For additional details, see "Subsidiary Equity Investment" in our 2025 Annual MD&A and our 2025 financial statements.

Statement of Compliance
We prepared our interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 (third quarter 2026 interim financial statements) in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), following the same accounting policies and methods of application as those disclosed in our 2025 financial statements. These third quarter 2026 interim financial statements were approved by RCI's Board of Directors (the Board) on October 22, 2026.

NOTE 2: MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation
The notes presented in these third quarter 2026 interim financial statements include only material transactions and changes occurring for the nine months since our year-end of December 31, 2025 and do not include all disclosures required by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the IASB for annual financial statements. These third quarter 2026 interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2025 financial statements.

All dollar amounts are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated.

Third Quarter 2026


New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in 2026
We adopted the following IFRS amendments in 2026. They did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
•Amendments to IFRS 9, Financial Instruments and IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures, clarifying both the classification of financial assets linked to environmental, social, and governance as well as the timing in which a financial asset or financial liability is derecognized when using electronic payment systems.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
The IASB has not issued any new or amended accounting pronouncements in 2026.

The IASB has issued the following new standard that will become effective in future years:
•IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (replacing IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements), with an aim to improve the structure and content of the primary financial statements and comparability between issuers (January 1, 2027). The focus of IFRS 18 is on presentation in the statement of income by requiring income and expenses to be classified into operating, investing, and financing categories. The main business activities of a company drive classification of income and expense into appropriate categories and further disaggregation of operating expense line items will be required in the statement of income. It also introduces defined subtotals of "operating profit" and "profit before financing and income taxes" in the statement of income to improve comparability between companies. Impacts on the statement of cash flows include eliminating classification options for interest and dividend receipts (must be classified as investing) and payments (must be classified as financing). In addition, IFRS 18 provides guidance on the disclosure of "management-defined performance measures" in relation to the statement of income, including reconciliation requirements.

We are continuing to assess the impacts IFRS 18 will have on our consolidated financial statements. We expect our consolidated statements of income will be presented differently under IFRS 18 and there will be recategorizations of certain line items in the statements of income and statements of cash flows.

NOTE 3: CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Key Metrics and Ratios
We monitor adjusted net debt, debt leverage ratio, free cash flow, and available liquidity to manage our capital structure and related risks. These are not standardized financial measures under IFRS and might not be comparable to similar capital management measures disclosed by other companies. A summary of our key metrics and ratios follows, along with a reconciliation between each of these measures and the items presented in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Adjusted net debt and debt leverage ratio
We monitor adjusted net debt and debt leverage ratio as part of the management of liquidity to sustain future development of our business, conduct valuation-related analyses, and make decisions about capital. In so doing, we typically aim to have an adjusted net debt and debt leverage ratio that allow us to maintain investment-grade credit ratings, which allows us the associated access to capital markets. Our debt leverage ratio can increase due to strategic, long-term investments (for example, to obtain new spectrum licences or to consummate an acquisition) and we work to lower the ratio over time. While our debt leverage ratio has increased as a result of the MLSE Transaction, we intend to manage our debt leverage ratio through combined operational synergies, organic growth in adjusted EBITDA, proceeds from asset sales and monetizations, equity financing, and debt repayment, as applicable. As at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we met our objectives for these metrics.

For the purposes of calculating adjusted net debt and debt leverage ratio as at September 30, 2026, we adjusted 50% of the value of all our subordinated notes except for our $2.0 billion subordinated notes due 2081, which we intend to redeem in December 2026 using the net proceeds from our issuance of subordinated notes in September 2026 (see note 15). This treatment is aligned with the approach commonly used to evaluate debt leverage by rating agencies.

1    For the purposes of calculating adjusted net debt and debt leverage ratio, we believe adjusting 50% of the value of our subordinated notes, excluding our $2.0 billion subordinated notes due 2081 which we intend to redeem in December 2026, is appropriate as this methodology factors in certain circumstances with respect to priority for payment and this approach is commonly used to evaluate debt leverage by rating agencies.
2    For the purposes of calculating adjusted net debt and debt leverage ratio, we have added the deferred government grant liability relating to our Canada Infrastructure Bank facility to reflect the inclusion of the cash drawings.

Free cash flow
We use free cash flow to understand how much cash we generate that is available to repay debt or reinvest in our business, which is an important indicator of our financial strength and performance.

Available liquidity
Available liquidity fluctuates based on business circumstances. We continually manage (including through monitoring our access to capital markets), and aim to have sufficient, available liquidity at all times to help protect our ability to meet all of our commitments (operationally and for maturing debt obligations), to execute our business plan (including to acquire

spectrum licences or consummate acquisitions), to mitigate the risk of economic downturns, and for other unforeseen circumstances. As at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had sufficient liquidity available to us to meet this objective.

Below is a summary of our total available liquidity from our cash and cash equivalents, bank credit facilities, letter of credit facilities, and short-term borrowings, including our receivables securitization program and our US dollar-denominated commercial paper (US CP) program.

In September 2026, we issued three tranches of subordinated notes and received net proceeds of $2.0 billion from the issuance. We intend to use the proceeds to redeem our $2.0 billion subordinated notes due 2081 in December 2026 on their first at-par redemption date (see note 15).

Our $815 million Canada Infrastructure Bank credit agreement is not included in available liquidity as it can only be drawn upon for use in broadband projects under the Universal Broadband Fund, and therefore is not available for other general purposes. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, we borrowed nil (2025 - $9 million and $71 million) under this facility.

The $4.35 billion of credit facilities we entered into in September 2026 (see note 14) are also not included in available liquidity as they were drawn in full on October 1, 2026 to fund the MLSE minority interest acquisition (see note 9).

NOTE 4: SEGMENTED INFORMATION

Our reportable segments are Wireless, Cable, and Media. All three segments operate substantially in Canada. Corporate items and eliminations include our interests in businesses that are not reportable operating segments, corporate administrative functions, and eliminations of inter-segment revenues and costs. Effective July 2025, TSC was transferred from the Media segment to Corporate Items, consistent with changes to its management structure. Comparative results have been recast to reflect this change, with no impact on consolidated results. We follow the same accounting policies for our segments as those described in note 2 of our 2025 financial statements. Segment results include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that have been allocated on a reasonable basis. We account for transactions between reportable segments in the same way we account for transactions with external parties, however eliminate them on consolidation.

Third Quarter 2026


The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of RCI are, collectively, our chief operating decision maker and regularly review our operations and performance by segment. They review adjusted EBITDA as the key measure of profit for the purpose of assessing performance of each segment and to make decisions about the allocation of resources. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income before depreciation and amortization; (gain) loss on disposition of property, plant and equipment; restructuring, acquisition and other; finance costs; other (income) expense; and income tax expense.

The restructuring, acquisition and other costs excluding Shaw Transaction integration-related costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 primarily include severance and other departure-related costs associated with the targeted restructuring of our employee base, specifically including $120 million arising from a voluntary departure program during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. In the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we also incurred costs associated with certain litigation.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the costs also included expenses related to closing the MLSE Transaction and real estate rationalization programs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the costs also included expenses directly related to completing the network transaction and an unfavourable regulatory decision related to retransmission of distant signals.

The Shaw Transaction integration-related costs in 2025 and 2026 consisted of incremental costs supporting integration activities related to the Shaw Transaction.

1    Includes a $40 million reduction to the gain on revaluation of our investment in MLSE in the third quarter of 2025 as a result of finalization adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation for the MLSE Transaction.

In July 2025, as a result of the MLSE Transaction, we recognized a $5 billion non-cash gain to recognize our existing 37.5% interest in MLSE at fair value, which was required as a result of the MLSE Transaction.

In July 2026, we announced we had entered into an agreement to pursue the MLSE minority interest acquisition for $4.35 billion in cash. As a result of this agreement, we recognized a $1,034 million non-cash loss related to the change in the fair value of the MLSE put liability, from $3.3 billion to $4.35 billion as at June 30, 2026, during the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

On October 1, 2026, we closed the MLSE minority interest acquisition and became 100% owners of MLSE. Upon closing, we borrowed US$3,077 million ($4,367 million) under our non-revolving credit facilities (see note 14) and settled the MLSE put liability included in "other current liabilities".

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, accounting for outstanding share-based payments using the equity-settled method for stock-based compensation was determined to be more dilutive than using the cash-settled method. As a result, net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 was reduced by $5 million and $16 million (2025 - nil and $4 million), respectively, in the diluted earnings per share calculation.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, a total of 8,758,089 options (2025 - 9,078,991) were excluded from the calculation of the effect of dilutive securities because they were anti-dilutive.

NOTE 11: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Derivative Instruments
We use derivative instruments to manage financial risks related to our business activities. These include debt derivatives, interest rate derivatives, expenditure derivatives, and equity derivatives. We only use derivatives to manage risk and not for speculative purposes.

All of our currently outstanding debt derivatives related to our senior notes, senior debentures, subordinated notes, and lease liabilities, as well as our expenditure derivatives have been designated as hedges for accounting purposes.

Rogers Communications Inc.
15
Third Quarter 2026


Debt derivatives
We use cross-currency interest rate exchange agreements, forward cross-currency interest rate exchange agreements, and foreign currency forward contracts (collectively, debt derivatives) to manage risks from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates associated with our US dollar-denominated senior notes, debentures, subordinated notes, lease liabilities, credit facility borrowings, and US CP borrowings (see note 15). We typically designate the debt derivatives related to our senior notes, debentures, subordinated notes, and lease liabilities as hedges for accounting purposes against the foreign exchange risk or interest rate risk associated with specific issued and forecast debt instruments. Debt derivatives related to our credit facility and US CP borrowings, with the exception of the interest rate swaps acquired in the MLSE Transaction, have not been designated as hedges for accounting purposes.

Credit facilities and US CP
The tables below summarize the debt derivatives we entered into and settled related to our credit facility borrowings and US CP program during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

In March 2025, we repaid the entire outstanding principal amount of our US$1 billion 2.95% senior notes and settled the associated debt derivatives at maturity, resulting in $95 million received on settlement of the associated debt derivatives.

In July 2025, in connection with the offers to repurchase certain of our US dollar-denominated senior notes, we partially settled the associated debt derivatives on the accepted senior notes (see note 15).

As at September 30, 2026, we had US$360 million notional amount of debt derivatives outstanding relating to our outstanding lease liabilities (December 31, 2025 - US$410 million) with terms to maturity ranging from October 2026 to September 2029 (December 31, 2025 - January 2026 to December 2028) at an average rate of $1.377/US$ (December 31, 2025 - $1.365/US$).

Expenditure derivatives
We use foreign currency forward contracts and option contracts (expenditure derivatives) to manage the foreign exchange risk in our operations, designating them as hedges for accounting purposes for certain of our forecast operational and capital expenditures. In 2025, as a result of the MLSE Transaction, we acquired expenditure derivatives and other foreign exchange options that had previously been entered into by MLSE. The other foreign exchange options are effective economic hedges against future US dollar-denominated expenditures; however, they cannot be designated as hedges for accounting purposes. Changes in their fair values are recognized in "change in fair value of derivative instruments" in "finance costs".

The following table provides further details on our outstanding foreign currency forward contracts and options as at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Equity derivatives
We use total return swaps (equity derivatives) to hedge the market price appreciation risk of the RCI Class B Non-Voting common shares (Class B Non-Voting Shares) granted under our stock-based compensation programs. The equity derivatives have not been designated as hedges for accounting purposes.

Rogers Communications Inc.
17
Third Quarter 2026


As at September 30, 2026, we had equity derivatives outstanding for 6.5 million (December 31, 2025 - 5.5 million) Class B Non-Voting Shares with a weighted average price of $48.20 (December 31, 2025 - $46.81).

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we entered into 1 million equity derivatives with a weighted average price of $55.23. We also reset the pricing on 0.2 million existing equity derivatives, resulting in net proceeds of $0.6 million. Finally, we executed extension agreements on all equity derivative contracts under substantially the same commitment terms and conditions with revised expiry dates to April 2027 (from April 2026). The weighted average cost was adjusted to $48.20 per share.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we settled 1.5 million equity derivatives at a weighted average price of $35.32 resulting in a net payment of $22 million on settlement. We also reset the pricing on 2.3 million existing equity derivatives, resulting in a net payment of $38 million. Finally, we executed extension agreements on all equity derivative contracts under substantially the same commitment terms and conditions with revised expiry dates to April 2026 (from April 2025).

Subsidiary equity derivatives
We have entered into cross-currency interest rate exchange agreements to manage the foreign exchange risk of our subsidiary equity investment (subsidiary equity derivatives). The subsidiary equity derivatives economically hedge our US dollar-denominated exposures arising from the subsidiary equity investment but cannot be designated as hedges for accounting purposes. These subsidiary equity derivatives convert an 8% US dollar-denominated cash flow into a Cdn$ rate of 7.16% until maturity on a quarterly basis.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, bank advances, short-term borrowings, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The carrying value of our lease liabilities approximates their fair value because the discount rate used to calculate them approximates our current borrowing rate. The carrying values of our financing receivables also approximate their fair values based on our recognition of an expected credit loss allowance.

We determine the fair value of our private investments by using implied valuations from follow-on financing rounds, third-party sale negotiations, or using market-based approaches. These are applied appropriately to each investment depending on its future operating and profitability prospects.

The fair values of each of our public debt instruments are based on the period-end estimated market yields, or period-end trading values, where available. We determine the fair values of our debt derivatives and expenditure derivatives using an estimated credit-adjusted mark-to-market valuation by discounting cash flows to the measurement date. In the case of derivatives in an asset position, the credit adjustment for the financial institution counterparty is added to the risk-free value to determine the estimated credit-adjusted value for each derivative. For those derivatives in a liability position, our credit adjustment is added to the risk-free value for each derivative.

The fair values of our equity derivatives are based on the period-end quoted market value of Class B Non-Voting Shares.

The fair value of the MLSE put liability is based on the agreed-upon amount to purchase the remaining 25% interest in MLSE from the non-controlling interest holder (see note 9).

Our disclosure of the three-level fair value hierarchy reflects the significance of the inputs used in measuring fair value:
•financial assets and financial liabilities in Level 1 are valued by referring to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;
•financial assets and financial liabilities in Level 2 are valued using inputs based on observable market data, either directly or indirectly, other than the quoted prices; and
•Level 3 valuations are based on inputs that are not based on observable market data.

There were no financial instruments in Level 1 as at September 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025. There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 or 2025.

In September 2026, to fund the MLSE minority interest acquisition, we entered into four non-revolving credit facilities with an aggregate limit of $4.35 billion that mature in September 2027. In October 2026, we borrowed US$3,077 million ($4,367 million) under these facilities upon closing the MLSE minority interest acquisition (see note 9). Concurrent with the borrowings, we entered into debt derivatives to hedge the foreign currency risk associated with the principal and interest components of the borrowings.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we repaid the $1 billion outstanding under the April 2026 tranche of our $6 billion term loan and terminated the facility.

In 2025, in connection with the network transaction, we paid an aggregate of approximately $30 million to the consenting holders of our outstanding senior notes for their consent to certain clarifying amendments to the indentures governing those securities concurrently with the closing of the network transaction plus approximately $18 million of other directly attributable transaction costs. These costs are being amortized into finance costs over the remaining terms of the underlying notes using the effective interest method.

In July 2025, to partially fund the MLSE Transaction, we borrowed US$1.3 billion ($1.8 billion) under our revolving credit facility (which was subsequently repaid using the proceeds from the network transaction) and US$1.5 billion ($2 billion) under two new $1 billion non-revolving credit facilities that matured in July 2026.

In July 2026, we amended the terms of our $4 billion revolving credit facility to, among other things, extend the maturity date of the $3 billion tranche to July 2031, from September 2030, and the $1 billion tranche to July 2029, from September 2028.

Third Quarter 2026


2026
In March 2026, we issued two tranches of subordinated notes, consisting of:
•US$750 million due 2056 with an initial coupon of 6.875% for the first five years; and
•$1.25 billion due 2056 with an initial coupon of 6.250% for the first five years.

Concurrent with the US dollar-denominated issuances, we entered into debt derivatives to convert all interest and principal payment obligations to Canadian dollars. We received net proceeds of $2.3 billion from the issuance, and we used the proceeds to repay debt.

In September 2026, we issued three tranches of subordinated notes, consisting of:
•US$500 million due 2057 with an initial coupon of 7.150% for the first five years;
•US$500 million due 2057 with an initial coupon of 7.400% for the first ten years; and
•$600 million due 2057 with an initial coupon of 6.000% for the first five years.

Concurrent with the US dollar-denominated issuances, we entered into debt derivatives to convert all interest and principal payment obligations to Canadian dollars. We received net proceeds of $2.0 billion from the issuance, and we intend to use the proceeds to redeem our $2.0 billion subordinated notes due 2081 in December 2026 on their first at-par redemption date.

Each of the $600 million and US$500 million 7.15% subordinated notes can be redeemed at par on their five-year anniversary or on any subsequent interest payment date. The US$500 million 7.4% subordinated notes can be redeemed at par on their ten-year anniversary or on any subsequent interest payment date. The subordinated notes are unsecured and subordinated obligations of RCI. Payment on these notes will, under certain circumstances, be subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of our senior indebtedness, including our senior notes, debentures, and bank credit facilities.

2025
In February 2025, we issued three tranches of subordinated notes, consisting of:
•US$1.1 billion due 2055 with an initial coupon of 7.00% for the first five years;
•US$1 billion due 2055 with an initial coupon of 7.125% for the first ten years; and
•$1 billion due 2055 with an initial coupon of 5.625% for the first five years.

Concurrent with these US dollar-denominated issuances, we entered into debt derivatives to convert all interest and principal payment obligations to Canadian dollars. We received net proceeds of $4.0 billion from the issuances.

The US$1.1 billion and the Cdn$1 billion notes can be redeemed at par on their five-year anniversary or on any subsequent interest payment date. The US$1 billion notes can be redeemed at par on their ten-year anniversary or on any subsequent interest payment date. The subordinated notes are unsecured and subordinated obligations of RCI. Payment on these notes will, under certain circumstances, be subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of our senior indebtedness, including our senior notes, debentures, and bank credit facilities.

Repayment of senior notes and related derivative settlements
2026
In September 2026, we repaid the entire outstanding principal of our $500 million 5.65% senior notes at maturity. There were no derivatives associated with these senior notes.

2025
In March 2025, we repaid the entire outstanding principal of our US$1 billion 2.95% senior notes and settled the associated debt derivatives at maturity. As a result, we repaid $1,344 million, including $95 million received on settlement of the associated debt derivatives.

In April 2025, we repaid the entire outstanding principal of our $1.25 billion 3.10% senior notes at maturity. There were no derivatives associated with these senior notes.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we purchased $1,205 million principal amount of our Canadian dollar-denominated senior notes and US$1,738 million principal amount of our US dollar-denominated senior notes, paying the note holders $1,147 million and US$1,411 million, respectively, plus accrued interest, for the purchase of those senior notes. In connection with our purchase of the US dollar-denominated senior notes, we also partially settled the associated debt derivatives.

1    Class B Non-Voting Shares were issued as partial settlement of our quarterly dividend payable on the payment date under the terms of our dividend reinvestment plan (DRIP).

On October 22, 2026, the Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.50 per Class A Share and Class B Non-Voting Share, to be paid on January 5, 2027, to shareholders of record on December 8, 2026.

The holders of Class A Shares are entitled to receive dividends at the rate of up to five cents per share but only after dividends at the rate of five cents per share have been paid or set aside on the Class B Non-Voting Shares. Class A Shares and Class B Non-Voting Shares therefore participate equally in dividends above five cents per share.

Update on sports and entertainment assets
On October 1, 2026, we completed the MLSE minority interest acquisition for $4.35 billion in cash, which we funded through short-term credit facilities. For more information, see "Managing our Liquidity and Financial Resources" in our Q3
1 Adjusted EBITDA is a total of segments measure. Free cash flow and debt leverage ratio are capital management measures. Capital intensity and Wireless mobile phone ARPU are supplementary financial measures. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is a non-GAAP ratio. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income attributable to RCI shareholders (a component of adjusted diluted earnings per share) are non-GAAP financial measures.

Third Quarter 2026


Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). Upon completing this transaction, we have obtained a 100% ownership interest in MLSE.

MLSE owns the Toronto Maple Leafs (NHL), Toronto Raptors (NBA), Toronto FC (MLS), Toronto Argonauts (CFL), various minor league teams, and associated real estate holdings, including Scotiabank Arena. MLSE also holds interests in certain entities that are complementary to its sports and events businesses. On completion of the MLSE minority interest acquisition, MLSE became a wholly owned subsidiary of Rogers, further enhancing our sports and entertainment portfolio, which also includes the Toronto Blue Jays, Rogers Centre, and Sportsnet.

We are pursuing the sale of a minority interest in our consolidated sports, media, and entertainment assets (Rogers Sports) to third-party investors by the first half of 2027, the proceeds from which we expect to use to repay debt and further improve our balance sheet. We remain committed to unlocking what we view as significant unrecognized value in our sports assets.

Quarterly Financial Highlights

Revenue
Total revenue increased by 2% and total service revenue increased by 1% this quarter, primarily as a result of revenue growth in Media.

Wireless service revenue decreased by 1% this quarter primarily as a result of the decline in mobile phone ARPU due to the cumulative impact of competitive intensity and lower fee revenue as a result of the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission's (CRTC) decision prohibiting certain fees (see "Regulatory Developments" for more information), partially offset by the year-to-date cumulative addition of new customers. Wireless equipment revenue increased by 9%, primarily as a result of a continued shift in the product mix towards higher-value devices, higher device upgrades by existing customers, and disciplined pricing.

Cable service revenue this quarter was in line with the prior year as the impact of retail Internet subscriber growth and base management activities was offset by declines in our Home Phone and Video subscriber bases. Our customer-facing data centre business, which we sold in late 2025, reflected approximately 1% of Cable service revenue in the prior year.

Media revenue increased by 9% this quarter, primarily as a result of higher sports revenue and subscriber revenue from the Warner Bros. Discovery suite of channels, partially offset by lower advertising revenue.

Adjusted EBITDA and margins
Consolidated adjusted EBITDA increased 1% this quarter, driven by EBITDA growth across all our businesses, and our adjusted EBITDA margin decreased by 40 basis points.

Wireless adjusted EBITDA increased by 1%, primarily as a result of higher equipment margins. This gave rise to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 68%, up 130 basis points.

Cable adjusted EBITDA increased by 1% as a result of various efficiency initiatives. This gave rise to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 59%, up 40 basis points. Our customer-facing data centre business, which we sold in late 2025, reflected approximately 0.5% of Cable adjusted EBITDA in the prior year.

Media adjusted EBITDA increased by 12%, primarily due to the flow-through impact of the aforementioned revenue impacts and associated costs.

Net income and adjusted net income
Adjusted net income decreased by 3% this quarter, primarily as a result of higher finance costs, partially offset by higher adjusted EBITDA. Net income decreased by $5,273 million this quarter as it was also impacted by a $5 billion non-cash gain in the prior year to recognize our existing 37.5% interest in MLSE at fair value, which was required as a result of the MLSE Transaction, and the $151 million gain on the redemption of long-term debt in the prior year.

Cash flow, available liquidity, and returns to shareholders
This quarter, we generated cash provided by operating activities of $1,658 million (2025 - $1,515 million), which increased as a result of lower income taxes paid, and free cash flow of $1,370 million (2025 - $829 million), which increased as a result of lower capital expenditures, higher adjusted EBITDA, and lower cash income taxes, partially offset by distributions to non-controlling interests. Our free cash flow generation is expected to further strengthen our balance sheet over time through accelerated repayment of debt.

Third Quarter 2026


As at September 30, 2026, we had $8.3 billion of available liquidity2 (December 31, 2025 - $5.9 billion), reflecting $3.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents and $5.1 billion available under our bank and other credit facilities. In September 2026, we issued three tranches of subordinated notes and received net proceeds of $2.0 billion from the issuance. We intend to use the proceeds to redeem our $2.0 billion subordinated notes due 2081 in December 2026 on their first at-par redemption date. The $4.35 billion of credit facilities we entered into in September 2026 are not included in available liquidity as they were drawn in full on October 1, 2026 to fund the MLSE minority interest acquisition (see "Update on sports and entertainment assets").

Our debt leverage ratio2 was 3.7 as at September 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - 4.0, which reflects the combined results of Rogers including MLSE for the period from the MLSE Transaction closing date (July 1, 2025) to December 31, 2025, and standalone Rogers results prior to July 2025 in trailing 12-month adjusted EBITDA). See "Financial Condition" in our Q3 MD&A for more information.

We also returned $270 million in dividends to shareholders this quarter and we declared a $0.50 per share dividend on October 22, 2026.

Service revenue
The 1% decrease in service revenue this quarter was a result of the decline in mobile phone ARPU due to the cumulative impact of competitive intensity and lower fee revenue as a result of the CRTC's decision prohibiting certain fees (see "Regulatory Developments" for more information), partially offset by the year-to-date cumulative addition of new customers. Service revenue year to date was in line with the prior year.

The decreases in postpaid gross and net additions this quarter, and net additions year to date, were primarily a result of promotional discipline and lower overall market activity in Canada.

The increase in postpaid gross additions year to date was a result of the highly promotional and competitive Canadian market activity in the first quarter.

Revenue
The 9% increase in revenue this quarter was a result of:
•higher sports revenue, including:
•higher game day attendance at the Toronto Blue Jays;
•the NHL regular season beginning in September this year; and
•higher sports league and other revenue related to other sporting events held at our venues;
•higher advertising revenue on Sportsnet; and
•higher subscriber revenue from the Warner Bros. Discovery suite of channels; partially offset by
•lower advertising revenue as a result of ongoing softness in non-sports media advertising.

The 44% increase in revenue year to date was primarily a result of the consolidation of MLSE beginning in the second half of 2025, which contributed $0.79 billion in revenue in the first and second quarters of 2026. Excluding the consolidation of MLSE, organic revenue growth was 6% year to date as a result of higher game day attendance at the Toronto Blue Jays and higher subscriber revenue from the Warner Bros. Discovery suite of channels, partially offset by lower advertising revenue.

Operating costs
The 9% increase in operating costs this quarter was a result of:
•higher player salaries and related costs at the Toronto Blue Jays and the Toronto Maple Leafs, including as a result of the NHL regular season beginning in September this year; and
•higher programming costs.

The 38% increase year to date was primarily a result of the consolidation of MLSE beginning in the second half of 2025, which contributed $0.64 billion in costs in the first and second quarters of 2026. Excluding the consolidation of MLSE, the organic increase in operating costs was 7% year to date and primarily reflects higher player salaries and other game day costs at the Toronto Blue Jays and higher programming costs.

Adjusted EBITDA
The increases in adjusted EBITDA this quarter and year to date were a result of the revenue and expense changes discussed above.

1    Includes additions to property, plant and equipment net of proceeds on disposition and accrued government grants, but does not include expenditures for spectrum licences, additions to right-of-use assets, or assets acquired through business combinations.
2    Capital intensity is a supplementary financial measure. See "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures" in our Q3 2026 MD&A for more information about this measure, available at www.sedarplus.ca.

We continue to (i) expand the reach and capacity of our 5G network across the country and (ii) invest in fibre deployments, including fibre-to-the-home (FTTH), in our cable network as we expand our network footprint to reach more homes and businesses, including in rural, remote, and Indigenous communities. These investments are expected to strengthen network resilience and stability and help us bridge the digital divide by expanding our network further into rural and underserved areas through participation in various programs and projects. In April 2026, we updated our 2026 capital expenditure guidance range (see "Financial Guidance") as a direct reflection of the ongoing impacts from heightened competitive intensity and recent regulatory decisions. Our strategic priorities remain unchanged and our current capital expenditure guidance range continues to support these priorities. We expect to achieve our guidance range through (i) ongoing investments progressing at a slower pace, (ii) the deferral, cancellation, or sale of certain projects, and (iii) lower capital costs for projects, most predominantly affecting Wireless and Cable.

Wireless
In addition to the above, the decreases in capital expenditures in Wireless this quarter and year to date were due to the impact of $133 million and $223 million (2025 - $13 million and $13 million), respectively, of proceeds received on the sale of certain network assets, which reduced capital expenditures. We continued to expand and enhance our wireless network through investments in network development and 5G deployment. We are actively deploying advanced spectrum assets, including the ongoing rollout of 3500 MHz spectrum and 3800 MHz spectrum. These investments build on our existing 5G infrastructure in the 600 MHz spectrum band, enabling greater speed, lower latency, and improved reliability for customers across urban and rural areas.

Cable
In addition to the above, the decreases in capital expenditures in Cable this quarter and year to date were a result of customers increasingly choosing to self-install new products. We also sold certain cable network assets for $86 million and $132 million (2025 - nil and $47 million) this quarter and year to date, respectively, the proceeds from which reduced capital expenditures. The sold assets were associated with under-construction rural fibre network projects we have deprioritized in the current environment. We are growing our network through expanded fibre deployments to increase our FTTH distribution and to extend our service footprint. At the same time, we are enhancing our network by upgrading our DOCSIS 3.1 platform as we transition to DOCSIS 4.0 to improve network resilience, stability, and capacity while delivering faster speeds. As part of this upgrade, we are rolling out mid-split technology (which has a greater number of frequencies than older technology and also allocates a greater number of frequencies to uploading data) in Ontario and Eastern Canada, significantly increasing upload speeds. These advancements leverage the latest technologies to provide greater bandwidth, improved performance, and an enhanced customer experience as we advance our connected home roadmap.

Media
The decrease in capital expenditures in Media this quarter was a result of lower modernization costs at Scotiabank Arena as construction nears completion. The increase year to date reflects higher costs in the first half of the year related to the continued modernization of Rogers Centre and Scotiabank Arena.

Corporate
The decreases in capital expenditures in Corporate this quarter and year to date primarily reflect the impact of $55 million (2025 - nil and $5 million) of proceeds received on the sale of certain real estate (land and building) assets.

Capital intensity
Capital intensity decreased this quarter and year to date as a result of the revenue growth and capital expenditure changes discussed above.

Regulatory Developments

See "Regulation in our Industry" in our 2025 Annual MD&A for a discussion of the significant regulations that affected our operations as at March 6, 2026. The following are the relevant developments since that date.

Millimetre Wave (mmWave) Spectrum Licence Auction
On September 24, 2026, Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada announced that the mmWave spectrum licence auction originally scheduled to start on October 19, 2027 has been rescheduled to start on January 25, 2028.

Sovereign Internet
On September 15, 2026, the Government of Canada announced its intention to support the development of a new Internet network to provide sovereign connectivity across Canada, including northern and Arctic regions, and to establish more direct international links to Europe and Asia. The initiative forms part of the government's broader strategy to strengthen Canada's digital sovereignty, enhance network resilience, reduce reliance on foreign infrastructure, and support growing demand for connectivity and data-intensive applications such as artificial intelligence. Governance, ownership, and funding models have yet to be determined.

Self-service Mechanisms
On April 24, 2026, the CRTC issued Telecom Regulatory Policy CRTC 2026-78, Enhancing self-service mechanisms, requiring service providers to, among other things, ensure customers can modify and cancel their plans through a self-service mechanism. The definition of "self-service" includes any mechanism that is easy to use and enables a customer to

Third Quarter 2026


perform actions in relation to their service plan, including modification and cancellation, without interacting with a live customer service representative. The new requirements will come into effect on April 26, 2027.

Prohibition of Fees
On March 12, 2026, the CRTC issued Telecom Regulatory Policy CRTC 2026‑43, Prohibition of fees that are a barrier to switching cellphone and Internet plans, regarding fees incurred as a result of activating or modifying telecommunications service plans. The policy amends both the Internet Code and the Wireless Code to add a new definition of "activation or modification fee", which amendments became effective on June 12, 2026. On June 30, 2026, the CRTC issued Notice of Consultation CRTC 2026-155, Show cause and call for comments - Compliance with the prohibition of fees that are a barrier to switching cellphone and Internet plans, requiring each of Rogers, Bell, and Telus to show cause why certain fees charged by those carriers that the CRTC believes may be in contravention of Telecom Regulatory Policy 2026-43 are not in violation of sections 24 and 27.04 of the Telecommunications Act and Telecom Regulatory Policy 2026-43. Submissions addressing the issues were due to the CRTC by August 31, 2026, with replies due by September 10, 2026.

CRTC Codes of Conduct
On April 13, 2026, in Telecom Regulatory Policy CRTC 2026-67, Enhancing customer notifications, the CRTC amended the Wireless Code and the Internet Code to set out what information must be included in notices sent to customers before the end of their contract and to require notifications to customers before the end of a time-limited discount or promotion and when their data usage reaches $50 when roaming internationally. The new requirements will come into effect on April 13, 2027.

Further, on September 10, 2026, the CRTC issued Telecom Regulatory Policy CRTC 2026-238, Making it easier for consumers to shop for Internet services, requiring Internet service providers covered by the Internet Code to post additional information about Internet services by advertising and contractually disclosing (i) typical download and upload speeds, including ensuring customers receive at least 95% of those committed speeds during "peak hours" (defined as weekdays between 7:00pm and 11:00pm) and 100% of those speeds outside peak hours and (ii) a latency range for each service plan using defined categories (less than 50 ms, 51-150 ms, or greater than 151 ms). The CRTC has required this information be provided in contracts, critical information summaries, and marketing materials. The new requirements will come into effect on March 10, 2027.

Online Streaming Act
On May 21, 2026, the CRTC issued Broadcasting Regulatory Policies CRTC 2026-95 and 2026-96, which introduced (i) a new financial contribution requirement of 1.55% of annual Canadian broadcasting revenues to support a new Services of Exceptional Importance Fund (SEIF) applicable to all broadcasting ownership groups with annual revenues of at least $100 million and (ii) a new Canadian Programming Expenditures (CPE) framework. On June 3, 2026, the Government of Canada directed the CRTC to review its decision to regulate online streamers and Canadian broadcasters and stated it would be issuing new policy directions to the CRTC requiring it to adjust its implementation of the Online Streaming Act.

Updates to Risks and Uncertainties

See "Risk Management" and "Regulation in our Industry" in our 2025 Annual MD&A for a discussion of the principal risks and uncertainties that could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results as at March 6, 2026, which should be reviewed in conjunction with this MD&A. The following updates and supplements those risks and uncertainties.

Monetization of sports, media, and entertainment assets
We intend to sell a minority interest in Rogers Sports (see "Update on sports and entertainment assets") and use the proceeds therefrom to repay debt. While we believe there is a significant market for these assets, there is no guarantee we will be successful in selling a minority interest, whether at the expected investment amount, within the anticipated timing, or at all. Such a sale would also require approval from the various leagues governing our professional sports teams, which is not guaranteed. We may not proceed with, or complete, any sale of a minority interest in Rogers Sports, whether at the expected investment amount, within the anticipated timing, or at all, due to alternative opportunities or requirements, general economic and market conditions, or other internal or external considerations. Any sale of a minority interest in Rogers Sports, if completed, may be at a valuation that is less than expected or may not raise the anticipated proceeds and may not unlock significant value from our sports assets. Additionally, we may use the proceeds from the sale of a minority interest in Rogers Sports, if completed, for other purposes, whether due to alternative opportunities or requirements, general economic and market conditions, or other internal or external considerations.

Sports franchises
After obtaining a 100% ownership interest in MLSE (see "Update on sports and entertainment assets"), our exposure to risks associated with owning and operating sports franchises and venues has increased.

Government broadband subsidy programs
We have agreements related to the Government of Canada's Universal Broadband Fund (UBF) and the Government of Ontario's Accelerated High-Speed Internet Program (AHSIP) under which we have committed to building networks

Third Quarter 2026


capable of delivering Internet services to unserved or underserved regions. We have assigned the construction of certain of these lots to various third parties who have agreed, among other things, to complete construction in accordance with the standards and timelines contained within our agreements with the governments. Notwithstanding these third-party arrangements, we remain responsible for the obligations to the respective government. Should these entities be unable to fulfill their obligations, we would be required to take steps to ensure construction is completed, which could cause us to incur additional capital expenditures or reprioritize other projects to ensure these timelines are met.

Financial Guidance

On April 22, 2026, concurrently with the release of our first quarter 2026 results, we updated our consolidated guidance ranges for select full-year 2026 financial metrics that were originally provided on January 29, 2026 as a direct reflection of the ongoing impacts from heightened competitive intensity and recent regulatory decisions. This press release is available under Rogers' profile on SEDAR+ at sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at sec.gov.

Key Performance Indicators

We measure the success of our strategy using a number of key performance indicators that are defined and discussed in our 2025 Annual MD&A and this earnings release. We believe these key performance indicators allow us to appropriately measure our performance against our operating strategy and against the results of our peers and competitors. The following key performance indicators, some of which are supplementary financial measures (see "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures" in our Q3 2026 MD&A), are not measurements in accordance with IFRS. They include:
•subscriber counts;
•Wireless;
•Cable; and
•homes passed (Cable);
•Wireless subscriber churn (churn);
•Wireless mobile phone average revenue per user
(ARPU);
•Cable average revenue per account (ARPA);
•Cable customer relationships;
•Cable market penetration (penetration);
•capital intensity; and
•total service revenue.
