MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months.

Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in TELUS Co. for these reasons:

  • The company reported earnings per share (EPS) of $0.15, which fell short of analysts' expectations, indicating potential challenges in meeting financial targets.
  • Revenue for the quarter was $3.83 billion, slightly below the consensus estimate, which may raise concerns about growth and market competitiveness.
  • The high payout ratio of 230.77% suggests that TELUS Co. is returning more to shareholders than it is earning, which could be unsustainable in the long term.
  • There are plans to reduce the dividend reinvestment plan discount, which may affect the attractiveness of reinvesting dividends for shareholders.
  • Despite recent upgrades, the mixed ratings from analysts, with some holding a "sell" rating, indicate uncertainty in the stock's future performance.
