BCE Latest News
This news release contains forward-looking statements. For a description of the related risk factors and assumptions, please see the section entitled "Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" later in this release.
BCE (BCE) doesn't possess the right combination of the two key ingredients for a likely earnings beat in its upcoming report. Get prepared with the key expectations.
BCE has underperformed, down 14% this past year and nearly 35% in the last three, despite high dividend yields of 8.84%. Regulatory pressures and increased debt levels have raised concerns about dividend cuts, but payments have remained stable. Recent macroeconomic changes and strategic pivots suggest BCE is undervalued and can sustain dividends into 2025.
These stocks have yields between 5.9% and 8.5%.
MONTRÉAL, Oct. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ - BCE Inc. (TSX: BCE) (NYSE: BCE) will hold its third-quarter 2024 results conference call with the financial community on Thursday, November 7, 2024 at 8:00 am eastern. Participants will include Mirko Bibic, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Curtis Millen, Chief Financial Officer.
BCE's subsidiary BELL and MacLean forge a partnership to revolutionize mining with advanced technology and foster sustainability.
BCE and EPR Properties offer high yields and strong prospects for income-focused investors in a lower interest rate environment. BCE benefits from 5G expansion, cost efficiencies, and media growth, supporting an 8.2% dividend yield despite regulatory uncertainties. EPR Properties has a diversified experiential asset portfolio, providing a stable 7.0% yield backed by a solid balance sheet and improving AFFO growth.
BCE Inc. BCE has finalized an agreement to sell its ownership stake in Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment ("MLSE") to Rogers Communications Inc. ("Rogers") for C$4.7 billion. The deal is subject to approval from the relevant sports leagues and other customary conditions, and it is anticipated to close in mid-2025.
Dividend growth stocks may not be the most exciting, but over the long term, all the dividend increases can really add up to meaningful cash flow in the later years. Every month we screen through for potential dividend growers looking for dividend safety, growth potential and consistent dividend payers. This month, we have three income favorites, one of which we haven't touched on since early 2022, and two new names to look at.
We had previously rated BCE as a buy, and expected it to do better than TELUS and Rogers Communications. The stock has done poorly but the options have offset the bulk of the pain. We examine the Q2-2024 results, the dividend coverage and also look at one of the preferred shares.
