TELUS International Inc. (CA8834371050) traded at USD 12.20 on September 22, 2026, down 0.89 percent from the previous close, with volume of 8.85 million shares. The market is weighing the latest operating figures and the sharp goodwill charge reported for the second quarter.

Second quarter brings a major charge

According to The Globe and Mail on September 22, 2026, TELUS reported second-quarter service revenue of CAD 4.4 billion on July 31, 2026, down 1 percent year over year. Adjusted EBITDA fell 2 percent to CAD 1.8 billion, while the company recorded a net loss of CAD 1.8 billion.

The loss included a CAD 2.1 billion non-cash goodwill impairment linked to TELUS Digital, according to The Globe and Mail on September 21, 2026. The charge does not represent a direct cash outflow, but its size changes how investors assess the value of the digital business.

Operational figures remain mixed

The quarter also contained a quantified counterweight: mobile network revenue rose 1 percent to CAD 1.7 billion, while TELUS added 17,000 mobile phone subscribers and 20,000 internet customers, according to The Globe and Mail on September 22, 2026. Blended mobile churn was 1.1 percent in the second quarter, giving the subscriber data a more stable backdrop despite the revenue decline.

For the stock, the comparison between the 1 percent service-revenue decline and the 1 percent mobile-network revenue increase is central. It shows that the quarter was not uniform across segments, while the impairment makes reported net income a less useful short-term measure than operating cash generation and adjusted EBITDA.

Stock trades near a pressured level

TELUS International shares changed hands at USD 12.20 on September 22, 2026, down 0.89 percent, while the quoted volume reached 8.85 million shares. A September 17 closing price of USD 12.47 was described as roughly 48 percent below the all-time high of USD 25.60 by The Globe and Mail on September 22, 2026. The distance from that historical level places greater weight on the next evidence of revenue stabilization and digital-business execution.
