Research reports

Sure Dividend (Sure Analysis) · November 10, 2025TELUS Corporation (TU)

This Sure Analysis report by Sure Dividend provides a full equity research-style review of TELUS, highlighting its position as one of Canada’s “big three” telecoms, its long dividend growth streak, and its defensive, subscription-based business model while noting that the company’s high payout ratio and elevated debt burden constrain retained earnings and raise concerns about long‑term growth capacity. The analyst projects roughly 10% earnings‑per‑share growth and an 8% dividend yield leading to an estimated 12.7% average annual total return over five years, but still assigns only a hold rating because the stock trades above the firm’s estimate of fair value and carries heavy leverage and weaker recent performance versus broad indices, making upside dependent on successful deleveraging and margin improvement.

KoalaGains · November 4, 2025TELUS Corporation (TU) Stock Analysis & Key Metrics (2026)

This November 4, 2025 KoalaGains report offers a qualitative, Buffett/Munger‑style fundamental analysis of TELUS, describing it as one of Canada’s three dominant telecoms with a strong moat built on capital‑intensive national fiber and 5G infrastructure, regulatory barriers to entry, economies of scale, bundled mobile/broadband/TV services, and a customer‑service‑driven brand that supports predictable subscription cash flows. At the same time, it emphasizes that TELUS carries a very large and risky debt load that is severely pressuring profitability and rendering its currently high dividend yield potentially unsustainable, leading to a mixed outlook where future returns hinge on successful execution of technology ventures and meaningful deleveraging, and investors are urged to balance the appeal of the yield against substantial balance‑sheet and growth risks rather than treating the shares as a straightforward bargain.
