BCE, Inc. (TSX:BCE) said that it is interested in acquiring rival wireless carriers if Ottawa allows it. BCE reportedly may acquire Public Mobile Inc. and WIND Mobile, according to The Globe and Mail.
BCE, Inc. elected David F. Denison and James Prentice as Directors.
BCE, Inc. Board of Directors has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.5825 per common share, payable on July 15, 2013 to shareholders of record at the close of business on June 14, 2013. The company reported unaudited consolidated earnings results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013. For the quarter, the company reported operating revenues of $4,919 million compared to $4,910 million a year ago. EBITDA was $1,962 million compared to $1,929 million a year ago. Net earnings attributable to the common shareholders were $566 million or $0.73 per share compared to $531 million or $0.69 per share a year ago. Adjusted EPS was $0.77 compared to $0.69 a year ago. Cash flows from operating activities were $1,040 million compared to $1,202 million a year ago. Free cash flow was $247 million compared to $331 million a year ago. The decrease is attributable primarily to the timing of cash receipts and higher income taxes paid compared to last year. Capital expenditures were $722 million compared to $817 million a year ago. The increase in Adjusted EPS was due to higher EBITDA, recognition of a pension surplus entitlement, and net gains on equity derivative contracts entered into to hedge share-based compensation liabilities. For the year 2013, the company expected growth and revenues of up to 2%, EBITDA of up to 3%, adjusted EPS in the range of $2.97 to $3.0 and strong free cash flow growth of 5% to 9%. Once again, that free cash flow reflects an increase in the absolute dollars to be invested in its capital programs to benefit the future of its businesses.
