Suncor posts record production in fourth quarter, adjusted profit nudges downward
Oilsands giant Suncor Energy Inc. has reported net earnings of $1.48 billion for the last three months of 2025, up from $818 million a year earlier. That amounted to a profit of $1.23 per share, versus 65 cents a year earlier.
Adjusted operating earnings, which Suncor considers a better gauge of its underlying performance because it filters out the effects of unusual items, were $1.33 billion, or $1.10 per share. That’s a drop from the prior-year quarter, when Suncor had adjusted operating earnings of $1.57 billion, or $1.25 per share.
Operating revenues, net of royalties, were $12.04 billion for the period, down from $12.53 billion. Total upstream production was a record 909,000 barrels per day, up from 875,000 in the same 2024 period.

On an adjusted basis, ATS says it earned 48 cents per share in its latest quarter, up from an adjusted profit of 32 cents per share a year earlier.
Revenue for the quarter totalled $760.7 million, up from $652.0 million.
ATS chief executive Doug Wright says the results reflected solid organic revenue growth across its portfolio, including continued momentum in services.
The company’s order backlog stood at $2.05 billion at the end of its most recent quarter, compared with $2.06 billion a year earlier.

Thomson Reuters reports US$332M Q4 profit, raises quarterly dividend 10%
Thomson Reuters raised its dividend by 10% as it reported a fourth-quarter profit of US$332 million, down from US$587 million a year earlier.
The company says it will pay a quarterly dividend of 65.5 US cents per share, up from 59.5 cents US per share. The increased payment came as Thomson Reuters says its fourth-quarter profit amounted to 74 cents US per diluted share for the quarter ended Dec. 31, down from US$1.30 per diluted share a year earlier.
Revenue totalled US$2.01 billion, up from US$1.91 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024. On an adjusted basis, Thomson Reuters says it earned US$1.07 per share in its latest quarter, up from an adjusted profit of US$1.01 per share a year earlier.

BCE reports $594M Q4 profit attributable to shareholders, Crave subscriptions up 26%
BCE Inc. reported a fourth-quarter profit attributable to common shareholders of $594 million as its revenue edged lower compared with a year ago. The company says the profit amounted to 64 cents per share for the quarter, compared with a profit of $461 million or 51 cents per share a year earlier.
Operating revenue totalled $6.40 billion, down from $6.42 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024. On an adjusted basis, BCE says it earned 69 cents per share in its latest quarter compared with an adjusted profit of 79 cents per share a year earlier. Analysts on average had expected an adjusted profit of 63 cents per share, according to data compiled by LSEG Data & Analytics.
The company reported 56,124 net postpaid wireless additions last quarter, down 0.8% from 56,550 a year ago. BCE cited a less active market, slowing population growth due to changing immigration policies and a focus on higher-value subscribers as reasons for the dip.
Customer churn—a measure of subscribers who cancelled their service—was 1.49%, the third consecutive quarter of year-over-year improvement. BCE’s mobile phone average revenue per user was $56.72 in the quarter, down 0.8% from a year ago. It said the decrease was due to “ongoing but abating” competitive pricing pressures and greater discounting, lower data overage revenue from customers subscribing to unlimited or larger capacity data plans, and lower roaming revenue amid Canadian customers’ decreased travel to the United States and adoption of Canada-U.S.-Mexico-International plans.
BCE says subscriptions to its Crave streaming service rose 26% in the fourth quarter to 4.6 million as its “Heated Rivalry” original series debuted in November.
The telecom company said its 2026 guidance is consistent with the three-year financial outlook shared last year, adding that it’s on track to hit its financial targets by 2028.
BCE said it’s expecting revenue growth of one to five% year-over-year for 2026. Desjardins analyst Jerome Dubreuil said this year’s outlook “came in modestly below expectations, particularly given management’s stated assumption of improving wireless pricing this year.”
Canada Goose Q3 profit down from year ago, revenue up 14%
Canada Goose Holdings Inc. reported a third-quarter profit attributable to shareholders of $134.8 million as its revenue rose 14.2% compared with a year earlier. The luxury parka maker says the profit amounted to $1.36 per diluted share for the quarter ended Dec. 28, down from a profit of $139.7 million or $1.42 per diluted share a year earlier.
Revenue totalled $694.5 million for the quarter, up from $607.9 million. Direct-to-consumer revenue totalled $591.0 million for the quarter, up from $517.8 million, while wholesale revenue amounted to $88.3 million, up from $75.7 million. Other revenue totalled $15.2 million, up from $14.4 million a year earlier.
