TELUS Corporation ("TELUS") today announced that it has acquired, through a wholly owned subsidiary, an aggregate of 2,593,631 subordinate voting shares (the "Purchased Shares") in the capital of TELUS International (Cda) Inc. ("TELUS Digital") by way of market purchases over the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange. As a result of the acquisition of these subordinate voting shares, TELUS has acquired an additional 2.35% interest in the TELUS Digital subordinate voting shares since TELUS' prior early warning report filed on August 16, 2024. When added to the 4,031,191 subordinate voting shares held prior to the last report, TELUS now holds approximately 5.99% of the outstanding subordinate voting shares.
&nbsp;
"We continue to hold confidence in TELUS Digital and its long term profitable growth strategy," said Darren Entwistle, President and CEO of TELUS. "In recognition of the considerable opportunities ahead, we are once again increasing our existing share ownership of the subordinate voting shares in the public market. These purchases are not part of a strategy to privatize the business, but rather, a reflection of our strong belief in the meaningful and sustainable value that TELUS Digital will create for stakeholders in the years to come."
The purchase of the Purchased Shares is being made pursuant to the normal course purchase exemption set forth in section 4.1 of National Instrument 62-104.
Before giving effect to the purchase subsequent to our August 15th news release, TELUS held an aggregate of 152,004,019 multiple voting shares of TELUS Digital and 4,031,191 subordinate voting shares. These securities represented approximately 92.5% of the outstanding multiple voting shares and 86.9% of the outstanding voting rights attached to all shares of TELUS Digital and approximately 56.8% of the total shares outstanding, reflecting the conversion by Riel B.V. of multiple voting shares into subordinate voting shares. The 2,593,631 Purchased Shares were acquired at an average purchase price of C$4.90, representing a total additional investment, before trading commissions, of C$12,703,197. After giving effect to the market purchases, TELUS holds an aggregate of 152,004,019 multiple voting shares and 6,624,822 subordinate voting shares. The shares held by TELUS now represent approximately 92.5% of the outstanding multiple voting shares, 6.0% of the outstanding subordinate voting shares, 57.7% of the outstanding shares of TELUS Digital and 87.0% of the outstanding voting rights of TELUS Digital. The multiple voting shares of TELUS Digital may be converted into subordinate voting shares on a one-for-one basis at any time.
TELUS purchased the Purchased Shares for investment purposes and may or may not purchase or sell multiple voting shares, subordinate voting shares or other securities of TELUS Digital in the future on the open market or in private transactions, depending on market conditions and other factors. TELUS currently has no other plans or intentions that relate to its investment in TELUS Digital. Depending on market conditions, general economic and industry conditions, TELUS Digital's business and financial condition and/or other relevant factors, TELUS may at any time develop other plans or intentions in the future relating to one or more of the above items. A copy of the early warning report to be filed by TELUS in connection with the acquisition will be available on TELUS Digital's profile on SEDAR+ at<a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4265922-1&amp;h=3894971246&amp;u=http%3A%2F%2Fsedarplus.ca%2F&amp;a=sedarplus.ca">sedarplus.ca</a>.

The Bank of Canada (BoC) reduced its key policy rate by 25 basis points to 4.25% on Wednesday, marking the third consecutive rate <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/interest-rates">cut since June</a>. 
The move was widely anticipated by market participants as inflation and the labor market continued to show signs of slowing.
The Canadian economy grew by 2.1% in the second quarter, led by government spending and business investment. However, the labor market continues to slow, with little change in employment in recent months. Wage growth, however, remains elevated relative to productivity.
During a press conference, Governor Tiff Macklem suggested that further rate cuts may be on the horizon if inflation continues to ease as expected. 
&#8220;If inflation continues to ease broadly in line with our July forecast, it is reasonable to expect further cuts in our policy rate,&#8221; Macklem said.
Inflation cooled to 2.5% in July, aligning with the BoC's target range. Core inflation measures also averaged around 2.5%, but the central bank noted that high shelter price inflation remains the biggest contributor to overall inflation. Shelter costs are now finally starting to ease.

Canadian markets reacted positively on Wednesday following the Bank of Canada's decision to cut interest rates. Investors showed optimism, pushing both stocks and bonds higher.
Yields on Canadian 10-year Treasury bonds dropped by 5 basis points to 3.2%, reflecting increased demand for government debt. The Canadian dollar or Loonie rose 0.3% to 1.35 levels against the dollar.
