Rogers posts Q2 loss as it takes charge related to MLSE deal

“We’re excited to bring together Canada’s premier communications company with one of the world’s premier sports and entertainment organizations and unlock long-term value for our shareholders,” Rogers president and CEO Tony Staffieri said in a news release.

On an adjusted basis, Rogers said it earned $1.15 per diluted share in its latest quarter, up from an adjusted profit of $1.14 per diluted share a year earlier.

Revenue totalled $5.62 billion, up from $5.22 billion in the same quarter last year.

The results came as the company reported 40,000 total mobile phone net subscriber additions, including 22,000 postpaid — those who pay a monthly bill for their wireless services after charges have accumulated. That was down from 35,000 postpaid additions in the same quarter last year.

Rogers’ monthly churn — a measure of those who cancelled their service — for net postpaid mobile subscribers was 0.94 per cent, an improvement from one per cent during its previous second quarter.

Rogers’ mobile phone average monthly revenue per user was $54.25, down from $55.45 in the second quarter of the prior year.

Retail internet net additions totalled 17,000, down from 26,000 a year earlier.
