Description: TU Telus

Telus Corp (NYSE:TU) is a Canadian integrated telecommunications provider that operates through two main segments: Technology Solutions, which delivers a broad portfolio of network, mobile, data, cloud, security, and health-tech services; and Digitally-Led Customer Experiences, which focuses on AI-enabled digital transformation and content-management solutions for enterprises. The company, incorporated in 1998 and headquartered in Vancouver, rebranded from Telus Communications in 2005.

Key metrics as of FY 2023 show $15.5 billion in total revenue, an adjusted EBITDA margin of roughly 38 %, and a wireless subscriber base of about 13 million lines. Capital expenditures remain high, with $2.5 billion invested in 5G rollout and fiber expansion-critical drivers in a market where regulated pricing and competitive pressure from Rogers and Bell shape growth prospects. Additionally, Telus’s health-technology segment is expanding faster than the core telecom business, posting a 12 % YoY revenue increase, reflecting broader sector trends toward digital health services and data analytics.
