Company Report

Growth Prospects Are Poor, but Cash Generation and Valuation Make Rogers Very Enticing

Rogers Communications is the leader in Canada’s wireless market, with over 30% share, and has continued to invest heavily in improving its network. The firm has spent more than any peer on spectrum since 2019, cementing its position as a network leader. However, we don't see any practical difference in the wireless networks of the major competitors. With Quebecor entering the market as a national wireless competitor and four participants offering excellent networks, we expect competition to weigh on prices throughout the industry, which should temper wireless services revenue growth even as Rogers maintains its leading share.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Rogers' business has been stable amid an unusually harsh operating environment. As a dominant competitor in a stable industry, results will improve, but the stock has been priced as if the business will perpetually shrink.

Bears

Quebecor’s push to become a national wireless player is weighing on Rogers’ pricing power, diminishing much of the firm’s wireless growth potential.

Company Profile

Rogers Communications is the largest wireless service provider in Canada with more than 11 million subscribers, equating to one-third of the total Canadian market.

The cable segment, which provides about 38% of total revenue after acquiring Shaw, offers home internet, television, and landline phone service to consumers and businesses. Remaining sales come from Rogers' media unit, which owns and operates various television and radio stations and major Toronto sports franchises, including the Blue Jays, Maple Leafs, Raptors, Toronto FC, and Argonauts.
