  • Telus and Cogeco: TSX Dividend Stocks Face Price Pressure but Offer Attractive Yields
    May 13, 2026, 9:27 PM EDT. Cogeco Communications (TSX:CCA) shares have fallen 18% since March 2026 due to a major shareholder exit, an earnings miss, and rising debt. Unlike traditional Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) BCE and Telus (TSX:T), Cogeco operates largely as a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO), leasing network infrastructure. While Telus is slowing revenue decline and managing debt at 3.5 times EBITDA, Cogeco's debt is slightly lower at 3.2 times. Both companies pay quarterly dividends with yields of 9.8% for Telus and 6.3% for Cogeco amid share price dips. Telus's 21-year dividend growth record and strategy to reduce capital spending give it an edge. However, risks include potential dividend cuts and adjustments during deleveraging. Investors should monitor business model relevance and cash flow amid intensifying telecom competition.
