driven by greater product revenues of 17.4%, moderated by lower service revenues of 0.8%. The increase in product revenues was attributable to Bell AI Fabric, our full-stack sovereign artificial intelligence (AI) platform that combines scalable infrastructure with managed services, resulting from the delivery of our first AI facility in Kamloops, British Columbia (B.C.), along with higher wireless device sales, partly offset by reduced consumer electronics sales at The Source (Bell) Electronics Inc. (The Source) due to permanent store closures and conversion to Best Buy Express as part of our distribution partnership with Best Buy Canada. The decrease in service revenues reflected ongoing erosion in legacy voice, and satellite TV revenues, greater acquisition, retention and bundle discounts on wireline residential services, ongoing elevated wireless competitive pricing pressures and continued lower demand for traditional broadcast TV advertising. This decline in service revenues was moderated by higher wireless and retail Internet average subscriber bases coupled with the flow-through of rate increases, the contribution from various acquisitions, wireless revenues related to the 2025 G7 Leader's Summit, higher Bell Media subscriber revenues, and greater revenues from the Formula 1 (F1) Canadian Grand Prix 2025.</font></div><div id="if8e6720fb6f14750b6a494a4c9cf52db_34"></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Net earnings of $644 million and net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $579 million in the second quarter of 2025 increased by $40 million and $42 million, respectively, compared to&#160;the same period last year, mainly due to lower other expense and lower impairment of assets, partly offset by lower adjusted EBITDA, higher severance, acquisition and other costs, higher depreciation and amortization and higher interest expense.</font></div><div id="if8e6720fb6f14750b6a494a4c9cf52db_37"></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">BCE adjusted EBITDA decreased by 0.9% in Q2 2025, compared to the same period last year, due to a decline in our Bell  Communication and Technology Services (Bell CTS) segment, partly offset by growth in our Bell Media segment.

greater product revenues, partly offset by lower service revenues. During the first six months of the year, BCE operating revenues were stable year over year, as higher product revenues were offset by lower service revenues. Service revenues of $5,267 million in Q2 2025 and of $10,439 million year to date, declined by 0.8% and 0.6%, respectively, year over year. Product revenues of $818&#160;million in Q2 2025 and $1,576 million year to date, increased by 17.4% and 4.0%, respectively, over the same periods last year.              </font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The year-over-year growth in Q2 2025 operating revenues was driven by an increase from both our Bell CTS and Bell Media segments. Year-to-date revenues were stable year over year, as higher revenues from our Bell Media segment were essentially offset by a decrease in our Bell CTS segment. Bell CTS operating revenues in the quarter grew by 1.0% year over year, due to higher product revenues of 17.4%, moderated by decreased service revenues of 1.5%, from ongoing erosion in wireline voice revenues, along with lower wireline data and wireless revenues. The year-to-date decline in Bell CTS operating revenues of 0.7%, was driven by lower service revenues of 1.5% from reduced wireline voice, wireless and wireline data revenues, moderated by greater product revenues of 4.0%. Bell Media operating revenues increased by 3.8% in Q2 2025, compared to last year, from higher subscriber and F1 Canadian Grand Prix 2025 revenues, partly offset by lower advertising revenues. Bell Media operating revenues during the first half of the year, increased by 5.3% year over year, due to higher subscriber, F1 Canadian Grand Prix 2025 and advertising revenues.</font></div><div

year, driven by a decline in our Bell CTS segment of 1.6% and 1.8%, respectively, moderated by growth in our Bell Media segment of 7.8% and 17.6%, respectively. This drove an adjusted EBITDA margin of 43.9% in Q2 2025, and 43.5% year to date, down 1.0 pts and 0.3 pts, respectively, over the same periods in 2024, resulting from reduced service revenues flow-through, along with a higher proportion of lower margin product sales in our total revenue base, mitigated in part by cost reduction initiatives and operating efficiencies.</font><font

The year-over-year decline was driven by lower capital investments in our Bell CTS segment of $218 million in Q2 2025 and $489 million year to date, consistent with a planned reduction in capital spending, primarily attributable to slower fibre-to-the-premise (FTTP) footprint expansion, in part due to regulatory decisions that discourage network investment.</font></div><div id="if8e6720fb6f14750b6a494a4c9cf52db_226"></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#12528a;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:13.5pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Business acquisitions</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">On June 7, 2024, Bell Media completed the acquisition of OUTFRONT Media Inc.&#8217;s Canadian OOH media business, OUTEDGE, for cash consideration of $429&#160;million ($418&#160;million net of cash acquired).

In addition, DBRS downgraded BCE's issuer rating to BBB (low) from BBB. BCE's preferred shares rating was confirmed at Pfd-3. Consequently, DBRS removed the credit ratings from &#8220;Under Review with Negative Implications&#8221;, where they were placed on November 5, 2024. The outlook associated with the DBRS ratings is stable. The downgrades were principally as a result of ongoing debt leverage above DBRS&#8217; thresholds for the prior ratings. All of the new ratings on Bell Canada&#8217;s senior (unsubordinated) long-term debt and commercial paper remain investment grade according to DBRS&#8217; rating scale with DBRS&#8217; BBB (low) rating representing its last investment grade rating rank for long-term debt and R-2 (low) rating representing its last investment grade rating rank for short-term debt.

Communications Canada Inc. and Qu&#233;becor Media Inc. (Qu&#233;becor) in respect of rates for mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) access service from Rogers Communications Canada Inc. On July 24, 2023, the CRTC selected the rate proposed by Qu&#233;becor, making several findings downplaying the importance of incentives for investment in Canadian telecommunications networks. Rogers Communications Canada Inc. subsequently appealed the CRTC&#8217;s decision with the Federal Court of Appeal. On May 28, 2025, the Federal Court of Appeal upheld the CRTC&#8217;s decision, finding no errors in their selection of Qu&#233;becor&#8217;s proposed rate. While the CRTC&#8217;s subsequent determination in Bell Mobility&#8217;s FOA with Qu&#233;becor appears to have moderated this approach by highlighting the importance of providing a return on investment to facilities-based carriers, adverse regulatory decisions such as the Rogers Communications Canada Inc. and Qu&#233;becor FOA decision are expected to impact how, where and when we invest in our future wireless and wireline networks.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">CRTC review of access to poles</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">On February 15, 2023, the CRTC issued a decision which included a number of determinations to facilitate access by third-parties to poles owned by Canadian carriers or poles to which Canadian carriers control access. On February 5, 2024, the CRTC initiated a new consultation, as anticipated in its February 15, 2023 decision, to consider the deployment of wireless facilities, such as small cells, on incumbent local exchange carrier (ILEC)-owned or -controlled support structures. On May&#160;14,&#160;2025, the CRTC ruled that access to support structures owned or controlled by ILECs, such as Bell Canada, for the installation of small cell equipment is subject to the ILECs&#8217; support structure service tariffs on the same terms and conditions as for other attachments on poles. Since carriers pay a per pole fee for access, this decision means that a carrier with fibre on a pole will not pay any additional fees to establish a small cell on that pole. In turn, this reduced any potential increase in our revenue associated with small cells. However, the CRTC also maintained our right to reserve capacity on our poles for our future use requirements, minimizing the risk that access seekers will delay or increase costs with respect to our own deployment activities.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Review of the wholesale high-speed access framework</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">On November 6, 2023, in Telecom Decision CRTC 2023-358 (the Interim Decision), the CRTC determined that aggregated access to Bell Canada&#8217;s FTTP facilities in Ontario and Qu&#233;bec should be mandated on a temporary and expedited basis, and the CRTC set interim access rates.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">On August 13, 2024, in Telecom Regulatory Policy CRTC 2024-180 (the Final Decision), the CRTC mandated that the interim obligation to provide wholesale aggregated access to Bell Canada&#8217;s FTTP facilities in Ontario and Qu&#233;bec, and to Telus Communications Inc.&#8217;s (Telus&#8217;) FTTP facilities in Qu&#233;bec, would be made final. Further, the Final Decision expanded the geographic scope of the Interim Decision such that Bell Canada was required to provide wholesale aggregated access to its FTTP facilities in Atlantic Canada and Manitoba by February 13, 2025. Telus and Saskatchewan Telecommunications (SaskTel) were also required to provide aggregated access to their respective FTTP facilities in Alberta, B.C., and Saskatchewan by the same date. This obligation does not apply to any new FTTP networks that Bell Canada, Telus or SaskTel make available at retail during the five-year period between August 13, 2024 and August 12, 2029. However, this five-year period is not a continuously rolling period. Instead, all new FTTP locations, regardless of when they are made available at retail, will be subject to a wholesale aggregated access obligation as of August 12, 2029. Under the Final Decision, cable companies are exempt from wholesale FTTP obligations and, as such, are not required to provide wholesale access to their FTTP networks. Also, under the Final Decision, Bell Canada, SaskTel, Telus, Cogeco Communications Inc. (Cogeco), Bragg Communications Inc. carrying on business as Eastlink (Eastlink), Rogers Communications Canada Inc., Qu&#233;becor, and their respective affiliates are not eligible to buy mandated aggregated wholesale high-speed access, whether over copper, coaxial cable, or FTTP, within their traditional incumbent wireline footprints. As a result, Distributel and other Bell Canada brands were required to, and did, cease reselling wholesale high-speed access over coaxial cable to new customers after September 12, 2024.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Several parties, including Competitive Network Operators of Canada (CNOC), Cogeco, Eastlink, Rogers Communications Canada Inc. and TekSavvy Solutions Inc. filed Part 1 applications asking the CRTC to review and vary several aspects of the Final Decision.

The Online News Act requires digital news intermediaries, such as Google, that share news content produced by other news outlets to negotiate commercial arrangements with those news outlets, compensating them for the news content shared on digital platforms. The legislation entitles Bell Media&#8217;s general news services, such as CTV and Noovo, to compensation. Further details regarding the compensation framework have been set out in regulations that were released on December 15, 2023 (the Regulations). The Regulations allow Google to apply to be exempt from parts of the Online News Act if it commits to pay $100 million annually (growing each year by inflation) to a collective (the Collective) which will then distribute it to eligible news outlets. On June 7, 2024, Google submitted an application for exemption to the CRTC and on October 28, 2024, the CRTC approved a five-year exemption for Google, which required Google to provide payment to the Collective by December 27, 2024 for calendar year 2024. Pursuant to the Regulations, of the $100 million to be paid by Google, news outlets that are also private broadcasters, such as CTV and Noovo, cannot receive more than 30% of the overall compensation available (with other news outlets, such as those associated with newspapers and public broadcasters, receiving the rest). Bell Media received an initial payment of $5.3&#160;million in April 2025 which represents approximately 60% of our total payment for 2024, with the remainder expected to follow in August 2025.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Bill C-2, the Strong Borders Act</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">On June 3, 2025, the federal government introduced Bill C-2, </font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">An Act respecting certain measures relating to the security of the border between Canada and the United States and respecting other related security measures</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> (the Strong Borders Act), in response to calls from the U.S. administration for enhanced security along the U.S.-Canada border.

In urgent situations, these demands could be made without a warrant. Additionally, Bill C-2 would require service providers to proactively develop, test, and maintain systems that enable the extraction and provision of information to law enforcement. Service providers would be obligated to facilitate access, support system testing, and comply with inspections&#47;audits, significantly expanding our obligations beyond simply responding to requests. The legislation establishes a general framework for compensating service providers but leaves key details to future regulations and indicates compensation for Ministerial orders is discretionary. The expanded scope of lawful access requests will require us to increase staffing and incur new costs to meet the information demands. The legislation also includes fines and administrative monetary penalties for non-compliance. At this time, it is unclear how these legislative changes might affect our business operations and financial results. Currently, Bill C-2 is at the second reading stage in the House of Commons and will resume debate and consideration in the fall. It is considered a priority bill by the federal government as it continues to negotiate with the U.S. on matters related to strengthening border security and national security issues.</font></div><div style="height:42.75pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div><font style="color:#12528a;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">44</font><font style="color:#12528a;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">     </font><font style="color:#12528a;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">BCE&#160;Inc.</font><font style="color:#12528a;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;2025 SECOND QUARTER SHAREHOLDER REPORT  </font></div></div></div><div id="if8e6720fb6f14750b6a494a4c9cf52db_262"></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><div style="min-height:42.75pt;width:100%"><div><font><br></font></div></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font id="i67a93d7478dc4dd19f90c833cc4f28af"></font><font style="color:#12528a;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:18pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">7 Business risks </font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><table style="border-collapse:collapse;display:inline-table;margin-bottom:5pt;vertical-align:text-bottom;width:100.000%"><tr><td style="width:1.0%"></td><td style="width:19.367%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:1.0%"></td><td style="width:18.783%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:1.0%"></td><td style="width:18.783%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:1.0%"></td><td style="width:18.783%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td><td style="width:1.0%"></td><td style="width:18.784%"></td><td style="width:0.1%"></td></tr><tr style="height:3pt"><td colspan="3" style="border-top:1pt solid #12528a;padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="border-top:1pt solid #12528a;padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="border-top:1pt solid #12528a;padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="border-top:1pt solid #12528a;padding:0 1pt"></td><td colspan="3" style="border-top:1pt solid #12528a;padding:0 1pt"></td></tr></table></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">The following is an update to the risk factors described in the BCE 2024 Annual MD&#38;A under section 9,</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"> Business risks</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"> and the other sections of the BCE 2024 Annual MD&#38;A referred to therein.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#12528a;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:13.5pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Update to the description of business risks</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">On August 1, 2025, we completed our previously announced acquisition of Ziply Fiber (the Ziply Fiber Acquisition).

These programs and initiatives require significant investment and other resources and may divert attention from ongoing operations and other strategic initiatives. There can be no assurance that Ziply Fiber&#8217;s current and future initiatives and programs will be successful, or that the actual returns from these programs and initiatives will not be lower than anticipated or take longer to realize than we anticipate. For example, we may not reach our targets to expand and penetrate Ziply Fiber&#8217;s existing fibre network on the timelines we anticipate, or at all. If Ziply Fiber&#8217;s current and future programs and initiatives are unsuccessful, result in lower returns than we anticipate, or take longer than we anticipate, it could have a material adverse effect on Ziply Fiber&#8217;s results of operations and consequently, adversely affect our financial performance.</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">The competitiveness of the U.S. communications industry</font></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Ziply Fiber&#8217;s services market in the U.S. is highly competitive, rapidly evolving and fragmented, and subject to changing technology, shifting customer needs and frequent introductions of new products and services. Customers have alternatives in obtaining products and services from other providers, including competitive local exchange carriers, local telephone companies, Internet service providers, wireless companies, satellite companies, VoIP providers and cable companies such as Verizon, Lumen, AT&#38;T, Comcast and Charter Communications. Some of these competitors may have market presence, engineering, technical and marketing capabilities and financial, personnel and other resources, in each case greater than those of Ziply Fiber. Additionally, some of Ziply Fiber&#8217;s competitors offer wireless services which may place them at a competitive advantage to Ziply Fiber as a result of their ability to offer bundled services and discounts. Our ability to innovate our own technology may also affect our ability to compete. Ziply Fiber&#8217;s ability to compete successfully may be affected by various competitive factors affecting the U.S. industry, including a changing regulatory environment that may affect our business and that of our competitors differently.

Our operating results are denominated in Canadian dollars and the difference in exchange rates in one period compared to another may directly impact period-to-period comparisons of our operating results. Furthermore, exchange rate fluctuations may make it difficult for us to predict our operating results. We may implement hedging strategies from time to time to mitigate risks related to the impact of fluctuations in exchange rates. However, not every exposure can be hedged and, where hedges are put in place based on expected foreign exchange exposure, they are based on forecasts which may vary or which may later prove to have been inaccurate.

To conclude that process, Ziply Fiber, BCE Holding Corporation, and BCE entered into a Letter of Agreement (LOA) under which they made certain commitments intended to ensure that the transaction would be consistent with U.S. national security, law enforcement, and similar interests. As is standard with such agreements involving foreign-owned U.S. carriers, the FCC made compliance with the LOA a condition of Ziply Fiber&#8217;s FCC authorizations. FCC rules also require Ziply Fiber to seek further approvals if any previously unapproved non-U.S. investor obtains, or seeks to obtain, direct or indirect interests in Ziply Fiber that exceed certain thresholds. If any new Ziply Fiber foreign ownership were to exceed such levels without further FCC authorization and&#47;or if Ziply Fiber, BCE Holding Corporation, or BCE were to fail to meet their obligations under the LOA, the FCC could subject Ziply Fiber to a range of monetary and other penalties, which could (in extreme cases) include license revocation proceedings.

Excess free cash flow shows how much cash is available to repay debt and reinvest in our company, after the payment of dividends on common shares. We believe that certain investors and analysts use free cash flow, free cash flow after payment of lease liabilities and excess free cash flow to value a business and its underlying assets and to evaluate the financial strength and performance of our businesses.

Commission (CRTC) significantly reduced, on an interim basis, some of the wholesale rates that Bell Canada and other major providers charge for access by third-party Internet resellers to fibre-to-the-node (FTTN) or cable networks, as applicable. On August 15, 2019, the CRTC further reduced the wholesale rates that Internet resellers pay to access network infrastructure built by facilities-based providers like Bell Canada, with retroactive effect back to March 2016. </span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The August 2019 decision was stayed, first by the Federal Court of Appeal and then by the CRTC, with the result that it never came into effect. In response to review and vary applications filed by each of Bell Canada, five major cable carriers (Cogeco Communications Inc., Bragg Communications Inc. (Eastlink), Rogers Communications Canada Inc., Shaw Communications Inc. and Videotron Lt&#233;e) and Telus Communications Inc., the CRTC issued Decision 2021-181 on May 27, 2021, which mostly reinstated the rates prevailing prior to August 2019 with some reductions to the Bell Canada rates with retroactive effect to March 2016. As a result, in Q2 2021, we recorded a reduction in revenue of $<ix:nonFraction unitRef="cad" contextRef="c-418" decimals="-6" name="ifrs-full:RevenueFromContractsWithCustomers" format="ixt:num-dot-decimal" scale="6" id="f-1294">44</ix:nonFraction>&#160;million in our income statements.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">While there remains a requirement to refund monies to third-party Internet resellers, the establishment of final wholesale rates that are similar to those prevailing since 2019 reduces the impact of the CRTC&#8217;s long-running review of wholesale Internet rates. The largest reseller, TekSavvy Solutions Inc. (TekSavvy), obtained leave to appeal the CRTC&#8217;s decision of May&#160;27, 2021 before the Federal Court of Appeal. On July 22, 2024, the Federal Court of Appeal issued a decision rejecting TekSavvy&#8217;s appeal of Decision 2021-181 pursuant to which the CRTC had, in May 2021, mostly reinstated wholesale Internet rates prevailing prior to August 2019. On September 30, 2024, TekSavvy sought leave to appeal that decision to the Supreme Court of Canada. On March 27, 2025, the Supreme Court of Canada dismissed TekSavvy&#8217;s application for leave to appeal. The decision was also challenged in three petitions brought by TekSavvy, the Canadian Network Operators Consortium Inc. and National Capital Freenet before Cabinet, but on May 26, 2022, Cabinet announced it would not alter the decision.</span></div></ix:continuation><div style="height:42.8pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div><span style="color:#12528a;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">78     BCE Inc.</span><span style="color:#12528a;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">     2025 SECOND QUARTER SHAREHOLDER REPORT</span></div></div></div></body></html>

On August 15, 2019, the CRTC further reduced the wholesale rates that Internet resellers pay to access network infrastructure built by facilities-based providers like Bell Canada, with retroactive effect back to March 2016. </span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The August 2019 decision was stayed, first by the Federal Court of Appeal and then by the CRTC, with the result that it never came into effect. In response to review and vary applications filed by each of Bell Canada, five major cable carriers (Cogeco Communications Inc., Bragg Communications Inc. (Eastlink), Rogers Communications Canada Inc., Shaw Communications Inc. and Videotron Lt&#233;e) and Telus Communications Inc., the CRTC issued Decision 2021-181 on May 27, 2021, which mostly reinstated the rates prevailing prior to August 2019 with some reductions to the Bell Canada rates with retroactive effect to March 2016. As a result, in Q2 2021, we recorded a reduction in revenue of $44&#160;million in our income statements.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">While there remains a requirement to refund monies to third-party Internet resellers, the establishment of final wholesale rates that are similar to those prevailing since 2019 reduces the impact of the CRTC&#8217;s long-running review of wholesale Internet rates. The largest reseller, TekSavvy Solutions Inc. (TekSavvy), obtained leave to appeal the CRTC&#8217;s decision of May&#160;27, 2021 before the Federal Court of Appeal. On July 22, 2024, the Federal Court of Appeal issued a decision rejecting TekSavvy&#8217;s appeal of Decision 2021-181 pursuant to which the CRTC had, in May 2021, mostly reinstated wholesale Internet rates prevailing prior to August 2019. On September 30, 2024, TekSavvy sought leave to appeal that decision to the Supreme Court of Canada. On March 27, 2025, the Supreme Court of Canada dismissed TekSavvy&#8217;s application for leave to appeal. The decision was also challenged in three petitions brought by TekSavvy, the Canadian Network Operators Consortium Inc. and National Capital Freenet before Cabinet, but on May 26, 2022, Cabinet announced it would not alter the decision.</span></div><span></span>

For this purpose, rights, options or warrants to acquire a fixed number of the entity&#8217;s own equity instruments for a fixed amount of any currency are equity instruments if the entity offers the rights, options or warrants pro rata to all of its existing owners of the same class of its own non-derivative equity instruments. Also, for those purposes the entity&#8217;s own equity instruments do not include puttable financial instruments that are classified as equity instruments in accordance with paragraphs 16A-16B of IAS 32, instruments that impose on the entity an obligation to deliver to another party a pro rata share of the net assets of the entity only on liquidation and are classified as equity instruments in accordance with paragraphs 16C-16D of IAS 32, or instruments that are contracts for the future receipt or delivery of the entity&#8217;s own equity instruments. As an exception, an instrument that meets the definition of a financial liability is classified as an equity instrument if it has all the features and meets the conditions in paragraphs 16A-16B or paragraphs 16C-16D of IAS 32.

On August 15, 2019, the CRTC further reduced the wholesale rates that Internet resellers pay to access network infrastructure built by facilities-based providers like Bell Canada, with retroactive effect back to March 2016. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The August 2019 decision was stayed, first by the Federal Court of Appeal and then by the CRTC, with the result that it never came into effect. In response to review and vary applications filed by each of Bell Canada, five major cable carriers (Cogeco Communications Inc., Bragg Communications Inc. (Eastlink), Rogers Communications Canada Inc., Shaw Communications Inc. and Videotron Lt&#xe9;e) and Telus Communications Inc., the CRTC issued Decision 2021-181 on May 27, 2021, which mostly reinstated the rates prevailing prior to August 2019 with some reductions to the Bell Canada rates with retroactive effect to March 2016. As a result, in Q2 2021, we recorded a reduction in revenue of $44&#160;million in our income statements.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Bell Slim Office',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;While there remains a requirement to refund monies to third-party Internet resellers, the establishment of final wholesale rates that are similar to those prevailing since 2019 reduces the impact of the CRTC&#x2019;s long-running review of wholesale Internet rates. The largest reseller, TekSavvy Solutions Inc. (TekSavvy), obtained leave to appeal the CRTC&#x2019;s decision of May&#160;27, 2021 before the Federal Court of Appeal. On July 22, 2024, the Federal Court of Appeal issued a decision rejecting TekSavvy&#x2019;s appeal of Decision 2021-181 pursuant to which the CRTC had, in May 2021, mostly reinstated wholesale Internet rates prevailing prior to August 2019. On September 30, 2024, TekSavvy sought leave to appeal that decision to the Supreme Court of Canada. On March 27, 2025, the Supreme Court of Canada dismissed TekSavvy&#x2019;s application for leave to appeal. The decision was also challenged in three petitions brought by TekSavvy, the Canadian Network Operators Consortium Inc. and National Capital Freenet before Cabinet, but on May 26, 2022, Cabinet announced it would not alter the decision.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</ifrs-full:DisclosureOfCommitmentsAndContingentLiabilitiesExplanatory>
