      Salaberry--de--Valleyfield and Huntingdon, as well as in many cities in

      available in those communities, customers will now be able to access a 
      full complement of telecommunications services in one place. 
 
   -- On August 29, 2025, Videotron announced the expansion of its wireless 
      coverage and service areas in the Haute--Mauricie region, in partnership

Comments by Pierre Karl Péladeau, President and Chief Executive Officer of Quebecor

Quebecor continues to demonstrate strong financial performance, quarter after quarter. In the third quarter of 2025, it posted an 18.7% increase in free cash flows from operating activities;(1) a 5.7% increase in adjusted EBITDA, which was up across all business segments; a 1.1% increase in revenues and a 25.7% increase in adjusted net income. On the strength of these excellent results, driven by rigorous, disciplined management, we were able to reduce our consolidated net debt by more than $300 million in the third quarter of 2025 and nearly $700 million over the past 12 months. We lowered our consolidated net debt leverage ratio to 3.03x as of September 30, 2025, the lowest among Canada's main telecommunications providers.

The Telecommunications segment maintained its momentum in the third quarter of 2025 with increases of 2.8% in adjusted EBITDA, 6.4% in mobile telephony service revenues, 1.1% in total revenues, and 0.8% in adjusted cash flows from operations, while increasing investments by $13 million during the quarter. This success was based, first and foremost, on our ability to attract and retain an ever--growing customer base with a range of innovative products at highly competitive prices. Our mobility brands continued to gain significant market share across Canada, adding 113,800 lines (2.7%) during the quarter and 323,100 lines (8.1%) over the past 12 months, the strongest growth rates in the Canadian industry.

We continued expanding our Helix Internet and television services during the third quarter of 2025. These services are now available to more than 180,000 additional households across many Québec communities, including Drummondville, Magog, Rimouski, Saint--Hyacinthe, Trois--Rivières, Salaberry--de--Valleyfield and Huntingdon, as well as in many cities in Saguenay--Lac-Saint-Jean. In line with our commitment to improving access to mobile communications in outlying regions, Videotron expanded its wireless coverage in the Haute--Mauricie region, in partnership with Ecotel Inc. and with support from the Québec government. More than 10,000 additional residents can now subscribe to Videotron's mobile services. Meanwhile, Freedom Mobile expanded its service area to include the Chatham--Kent region in Ontario. Residents can now access our competitive plans, including the innovative Roam Beyond plan, delivered via a fast and reliable network. As a result of the series of service area expansions in recent quarters, combined with roaming agreements under the Canadian Radio--television and Telecommunications Commission's $(CRTC)$ Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) framework, Videotron, Fizz and Freedom now reach over 83% of Canada's population.

We are particularly proud of the results of the latest Léger survey, which show that Videotron remains the undisputed leader in customer service among telecom providers in Québec. Videotron was also rated the most reliable and trustworthy telecom, attesting to the superb customer experience we deliver, day after day.

In October 2025, Videotron announced the pricing of its $800.0 million private placement of 3.95% Senior Notes maturing in 2032. The success of this offering confirmed Videotron's status as one of the leaders in Canadian telecommunications provider. Strong investor demand on attractive terms for Videotron, including the lowest seven--year credit spread in the Canadian telecom sector, testifies to our solid financial foundations, disciplined management and growth prospects.

TVA Group Inc. ("TVA Group") generated revenues of $106.2 million in the third quarter of 2025, down $6.2 million (--5.5%), and year--to--date revenues of $355.3 million, down $30.3 million (--7.8%). Although TVA Group posted adjusted EBITDA of $18.5 million in the third quarter of 2025, thanks to numerous restructuring measures over the past two years and certain non--recurring favourable retroactive adjustments in 2025, this was not enough to achieve profitability for the first nine months of the year. These measures are not sustainable in the medium term and are far from sufficient to secure the long--term viability of our business, given in particular the ongoing, accelerating decline in advertising revenues, compounded by the absence of foreign blockbusters at MELS' studios. It is therefore imperative that governments also act and take the necessary steps to support domestic media companies in the long term.

Unfortunately, the government has completely ignored our industry and turned a blind eye to the crisis that is hitting television broadcasting so hard. There is no tax credit for television journalism, no tax incentives for advertising in Québec and Canadian media, and no information about when the digital services tax already paid by private broadcasters will be refunded. Furthermore, CBC/Radio Canada's annual funding has been increased by $150 million without any requirement to eliminate advertising on its platforms or to curb its unfair commercial competition with Canada's private television broadcasters. Regrettably, this new government has missed an opportunity to support an industry facing ever-growing challenges and job losses at an alarming rate. Regarding the Québec government, we reiterate that it must quickly introduce concrete measures to implement the recommendations in the report of its task force on the future of Québec's audiovisual industry, filed in October 2025.

TVA Group's broadcasting activities continued to dominate television viewership in Québec. Its channels registered a combined market share of 41.2% in the third quarter of 2025, a 2.2--point increase from 2024 and more than its two main rivals combined. TVA Network maintained its lead among French--language over--the--air channels on the strength of programs such as Chanteurs masqués, which drew an average audience of more than 1.5 million for a 52.9% market share. Among the specialty channels, LCN remained Quebecers' trusted news source with an 8.0% market share, a 0.9--point increase over the same period of 2024, and TVA Sports recorded a significant 1.4--point gain in the third quarter of 2025 compared with the same period in 2024.

We proudly upheld our founder Pierre Péladeau's commitment to actively contribute to the development and well--being of the community. Quebecor donated $2 million to the Fondation Sablon, an organization that provides disadvantaged children with opportunities to grow through sports and outdoor activities. The donation will fund the complete refurbishment of the Centre aquatique Québecor, improving access to quality facilities for young people and their families. We also continued to support university entrepreneurship, notably through the Pierre Péladeau Bursaries. In their 27th year, the Bursaries awarded more than $200,000, shared among five recipients, to encourage innovation, creativity and risk--taking by Québec student entrepreneurs.

Quebecor remains firmly committed to strengthening its position as a Canadian telecommunications leader by focusing on profitable growth, a solid balance sheet and long--term value creation. We will also continue disciplined investment to deliver the best possible customer experience to more Canadians, while building a sustainable future for all our stakeholders.

Financing operations

On October 21, 2025, Videotron announced the pricing of its $800.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.950% Senior Notes due October 15, 2032. The closing of the offering is expected on or about November 20, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions. Videotron intends to use the net proceeds of this offering, together with cash on hand, to fund the conditional redemption of all of its US$600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.125% Senior Notes due April 15, 2027, and the settlement of the related hedging contracts.

Capital stock

On August 6, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Corporation authorized the renewal of the normal course issuer bid for a maximum of 1,000,000 Class A Multiple Voting Shares ("Class A Shares"), representing approximately 1.3% of issued and outstanding Class A Shares, and for a maximum of 5,000,000 Class B Subordinate Voting Shares ("Class B Shares"), representing approximately 3.2% of issued and outstanding Class B Shares as of August 1, 2025. The purchases can be made from August 15, 2025 to August 14, 2026, at prevailing market prices on the open market through the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange or other alternative trading systems in Canada. All shares purchased under the bid will be cancelled.

On August 8, 2025, the Corporation entered into an automatic securities purchase plan ("the plan") with a designated broker whereby shares may be repurchased under the plan at times when such purchases would otherwise be prohibited pursuant to regulatory restrictions or self--imposed blackout periods. The plan received prior approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange. It came into effect on August 15, 2025 and will terminate on the same date as the normal course issuer bid.

Under the plan, before entering a self--imposed blackout period, the Corporation may, but is not required to, ask the designated broker to make purchases under the normal course issuer bid. Such purchases will be made at the discretion of the designated broker, within parameters established by the Corporation prior to the blackout periods. Outside the blackout periods, purchases will be made at the discretion of the Corporation's management.

During the first nine months of 2025, the Corporation repurchased and cancelled 3,740,908 Class B Shares for a total cash consideration of $140.0 million (2,200,000 Class B Shares for a total cash consideration of $68.8 million in 2024) and 217,221 Class B Shares were issued following the exercise of stock options for a total cash consideration of $6.6 million (5,161,237 Class B shares issued in 2024 following the redemption of convertible debentures).

Dividends declared

On November 5, 2025, the Board of Directors of Quebecor declared a quarterly dividend of $0.35 per share on its Class A Shares and Class B Shares, payable on December 16, 2025 to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 21, 2025. This dividend is designated an eligible dividend, as provided under subsection 89(14) of the Canadian Income Tax Act and its provincial counterpart.

   -- general economic climate, financial and economic market conditions, 
      global business challenges, such as tariffs and trade barriers, as well 
      as market conditions and variations in the businesses of local, regional 
      and national advertisers in Quebecor's newspapers, television outlets and 
      other media properties; 
 
   -- Quebecor's ability to implement its business and growth strategies 
      successfully; 
 
   -- the intensity of competitive activity in the industries in which Quebecor 
      operates and its ability to penetrate new markets and successfully 
      develop its business, including in growth sectors and new geographies; 
 
   -- fragmentation of the media landscape and its impact on the advertising 
      market and the media properties of Quebecor; 
 
   -- new technologies that might change consumer behaviour with respect to 
      Quebecor's product suites; 
 
   -- unanticipated higher capital spending required for developing Quebecor's 
      network or to address the continued development of competitive 
      alternative technologies, or the inability to obtain additional capital 
      to continue the development of Quebecor's business segments; 
 
   -- risks relating to the ongoing integration of Freedom, acquired in 2023, 
      which could result in additional and unforeseen expenses, capital 
      expenditures and financial risks, such as the incurrence of unexpected 
      write--offs, unanticipated or unknown liabilities, or unforeseen 
      litigation. In addition, the anticipated benefits of the Freedom 
      acquisition may not be fully realized or could take longer to realize 
      than expected; 
 
   -- the impacts of the significant and recurring investments that will be 
      required for development and expansion and to compete effectively with 
      the incumbent local exchange carriers ("ILECs") and other current or 
      potential competitors in the Telecommunications segment's target markets; 
 
   -- disruptions to the network through which Quebecor provides its television, 
      Internet access, mobile and wireline telephony and over--the--top (OTT) 
      services, and its ability to protect such services against piracy, 
      unauthorized access and other security breaches; 
 
   -- labour disputes and strikes, service interruptions resulting from 
      equipment breakdown, network failure, the threat of natural disasters, 
      epidemics, public--health crises and political instability in some 
      countries; 
 
   -- impacts related to environmental issues, cybersecurity and the protection 
      of personal information; 
 
   -- changes in Quebecor's ability to obtain services and equipment critical 
      to its operations; 
 
   -- changes in laws and regulations, or in their interpretations, which could 
      result, among other things, in increased competition, changes in 
      Quebecor's markets, increased operating expenses, capital expenditures or 
      tax expenses, or a reduction in the value of some assets; and 
 
   -- Quebecor's substantial indebtedness, interest rate and exchange rate 
      fluctuations, the tightening of credit markets and the restrictions on 
      its business imposed by the terms of its debt.

DEFINITIONS

Adjusted EBITDA

In its analysis of operating results, the Corporation defines adjusted EBITDA, as reconciled to net income under IFRS, as net income before depreciation and amortization, financial expenses, gain on valuation and translation of financial instruments, restructuring, impairment of assets and other, and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA as defined above is not a measure of results that is consistent with IFRS. It is not intended to be regarded as an alternative to IFRS financial performance measures or to the statement of cash flows as a measure of liquidity. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other performance measures prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Corporation's management and Board of Directors use this measure in evaluating its consolidated results as well as the results of the Corporation's operating segments. This measure eliminates the significant level of impairment and depreciation/amortization of tangible and intangible assets and is unaffected by the capital structure or investment activities of the Corporation and its business segments.

Adjusted EBITDA is also relevant because it is a component of the Corporation's annual incentive compensation programs. A limitation of this measure, however, is that it does not reflect the capital expenditures and acquisitions of spectrum licences needed to generate revenues in the Corporation's segments. The Corporation also uses other measures that do reflect capital expenditures, such as adjusted cash flows from operations and free cash flows from operating activities. The Corporation's definition of adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Table 2 provides a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income as disclosed in Quebecor's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Adjusted net income (formerly "adjusted income from operating activities")

The Corporation defines adjusted net income, as reconciled to net income attributable to shareholders under IFRS, as net income attributable to shareholders before the gain on valuation and translation of financial instruments, and restructuring, impairment of assets and other, net of income tax related to adjustments and net income attributable to non--controlling interest related to adjustments. Adjusted net income as defined above is not a measure of results that is consistent with IFRS. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Corporation uses adjusted net income to analyze trends in the performance of its businesses. The above--listed items are excluded from the calculation of this measure because they impair the comparability of financial results. Adjusted net income from operating activities is more representative for forecasting income. The Corporation's definition of adjusted net income may not be the same as similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Adjusted cash flows from operations and free cash flows from operating activities

Adjusted cash flows from operations

Adjusted cash flows from operations represents adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures (excluding spectrum licence acquisitions). Adjusted cash flows from operations represents funds available for interest and income tax payments, expenditures related to restructuring programs, business acquisitions, acquisitions of spectrum licences, payment of dividends, repayment of long--term debt and lease liabilities, and share repurchases. Adjusted cash flows from operations is not a measure of liquidity that is consistent with IFRS. It is not intended to be regarded as an alternative to IFRS financial performance measures or to the statement of cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted cash flows from operations is used by the Corporation's management and Board of Directors to evaluate the cash flows generated by the operations of all of its segments, on a consolidated basis, in addition to the operating cash flows generated by each segment. Adjusted cash flows from operations is also relevant because it is a component of the Corporation's annual incentive compensation programs. The Corporation's definition of adjusted cash flows from operations may not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Free cash flows from operating activities

Free cash flows from operating activities represents cash flows provided by operating activities calculated in accordance with IFRS, less cash flows used for capital expenditures (excluding spectrum licence acquisitions), plus proceeds from disposal of assets. Free cash flows from operating activities is used by the Corporation's management and Board of Directors to evaluate cash flows generated by the Corporation's operations. Free cash flows from operating activities represents available funds for business acquisitions, acquisitions of spectrum licences, payment of dividends, repayment of long--term debt and lease liabilities, and share repurchases. Free cash flows from operating activities is not a measure of liquidity that is consistent with IFRS. It is not intended to be regarded as an alternative to IFRS financial performance measures or to the statement of cash flows as a measure of liquidity. The Corporation's definition of free cash flows from operating activities may not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Consolidated net debt leverage ratio

The consolidated net debt leverage ratio represents consolidated net debt divided by the trailing 12--month adjusted EBITDA. Consolidated net debt represents total long--term debt plus bank indebtedness, lease liabilities and liabilities related to derivative financial instruments, less assets related to derivative financial instruments and cash and cash equivalents. The consolidated net debt leverage ratio serves to evaluate the Corporation's financial leverage and is used by management and the Board of Directors in decisions on the Corporation's capital structure, including its financing strategy, and in managing debt maturity risks. Consolidated net debt leverage ratio is not a measure established in accordance with IFRS. It is not intended to be used as an alternative to IFRS measures or the balance sheet to evaluate the Corporation's financial position. The Corporation's definition of consolidated net debt leverage ratio may not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Table 6 provides the calculation of consolidated net debt leverage ratio and the reconciliation to balance sheet items reported in Quebecor's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Key performance indicator

Revenue--generating unit

The Corporation uses RGU, an industry metric, as a key performance indicator. An RGU represents, as the case may be, subscriber connections to the mobile and wireline telephony services and subscriptions to the Internet access and television services. RGU is not a measurement that is consistent with IFRS and the Corporation's definition and calculation of RGU may not be the same as identically titled measurements reported by other companies or published by public authorities.
