Consolidated Results from Operations
Commencing April 1, 2024, 100% of the operating results of Shaw Media Inc., as well as its assets and liabilities, have been fully consolidated as a business combination in accordance with IFRS 3 – Business Combinations and, as a result, Shaw Media has been accounted for by applying the acquisition method as of that date. Shaw Media has been reported as part of the Television segment (further discussion is provided in note 18 of the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended August 31, 2024).
In addition, for fiscal 2024, certain of Corus’ Pay Television business’ (“Pay TV”) assets and liabilities were reclassified as held for disposal effective November 19, 2024 as a consequence of meeting the definition of assets held for sale under IFRS 5 – Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. The disposal group, Pay TV, did not qualify for discontinued operations presentation and as a result, its operating results remain in continuing operations in the consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income for the year ended August 31, 2024. However, intangible assets classified as held for disposal ceased being amortized effective November 19, 2024 and as a consequence, amortization of program and film rights in the Television segment for the year ended August 31, 2024 is $15.6 million lower than it would have been had amortization on these assets not ceased. OnFebruary 29, 2024, the Pay TV disposition was completed and the related proceeds and gain associated with this disposal group were recognized (further discussion is provided in note 18 of the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended August 31, 2024).
Consolidated revenues for the three months ended August 31, 2024 were $384.5 million, up 99% from $193.6 million last year. Consolidated segment profit was $105.4 million, up 90% from $55.5 million last year. Net income attributable to shareholders for the quarter ended August 31, 2024 was $nil ($nil per share basic and diluted), as compared to
$17.8 million ($0.21 per share basic and diluted) last year. Net income attributable to shareholders for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 includes business acquisition, integration and restructuring costs of $19.6 million ($0.07 per share). Adjusting for the impact of these items results in an adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of $14.5 million ($0.07 per share basic) in the quarter. Net income attributable to shareholders for the prior year quarter includes business acquisition, integration and restructuring costs of $8.3 million($0.07 per share). Adjusting for the impact of this item results in an adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of $24.0 million($0.28 per share) in the prior year quarter.
Consolidated revenues for the year ended August 31, 2024 were $1,171.3 million, up 44% from $815.3 million last year. Consolidated segment profit was $411.0 million, up 48% from $277.2 million last year, however, excludes amortization of disposed Pay TV program and film rights of $15.6 million. Adjusting for this, segment profit would be $395.4 million, up 43% from last year. Net income attributable to shareholders for the year ended August 31, 2024 was $125.9 million ($0.96 per share), compared to a net loss of $25.2 million ($0.29 loss per share) last year. Net income attributable to shareholders for the year ended August 31, 2024 includes business acquisition, integration and restructuring costs of $57.2 million ($0.35 per share), debt refinancing costs of $61.2 million ($0.34 per share), a gain relating to the discontinuation of the Pay TV business, and the disposal of certain assets of $86.2 million ($0.58 per share), and excludes amortization of disposed of Pay TV program and film rights of $15.6 million ($0.09 per share). Adjusting for the impact of these items results in an adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of $129.0 million ($0.98 per share basic) for the current fiscal year. Net loss attributable to shareholders for the year ended August 31, 2024 includes Radio broadcast license and goodwill impairment charges of $130.0 million ($1.44 per share), intangible asset impairment charges of $51.8 million ($0.44 per share) and business acquisition, integration and restructuring costs of $19.0 million ($0.15 per share basic), offset by a gain on disposition of investment of $17.0 million ($0.17 per share). Adjusting for the impact of these items results in an adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of $135.9 million ($1.57 per share) for the prior fiscal year.
