TELUS - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2025)

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. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). 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.

TELUS
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in TELUS Co.:

The current stock price of TELUS Co. is $14.14, which reflects a recent increase of 1.5%. This upward movement can indicate positive market sentiment and potential for further growth.
TELUS Co. reported earnings per share (EPS) of $0.18 for the latest quarter, surpassing analyst expectations of $0.16. This demonstrates the company's ability to generate profits above market forecasts, which can be a positive sign for investors.
The company has a strong market capitalization of approximately $21.40 billion, indicating its significant presence in the telecommunications sector, which can provide stability and growth potential for investors.
TELUS Co. has a dividend yield of 8.00%, which is attractive for income-focused investors. A high yield can provide a steady income stream, especially in a low-interest-rate environment.
Analysts have a consensus rating of "Hold" on TELUS Co., with one analyst issuing a buy rating. This suggests that while there may be some caution, there is also recognition of the company's potential value.

TELUS
Bear Case

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

The company has a high dividend payout ratio of 226.53%, which means it is paying out more in dividends than it earns in profits. This could raise concerns about the sustainability of the dividend in the long term.
TELUS Co. has a debt-to-equity ratio of 1.52, indicating that the company relies significantly on debt to finance its operations. High levels of debt can pose risks, especially in economic downturns.
Recent downgrades from analysts, including a shift from "buy" to "neutral" by Bank of America, may signal concerns about the company's future performance and could lead to decreased investor confidence.
The stock has a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 28.85, which is relatively high compared to industry averages. This could suggest that the stock is overvalued, making it less attractive for new investors.
Despite recent earnings growth, the company's net margin of 4.85% is relatively low, indicating that it may not be as efficient in converting revenue into profit compared to its peers.
