Non-GAAP measures and definitions of key operating indicators1Return on common equity is Net income attributed to equity shares for a 12-month trailing period, divided by the average Common equity for the12-month period.2EBITDA interest coverage ratio is defined as EBITDA (excluding restructuring and other costs), divided by net interest cost. Net interest cost isdefined as financing costs, net of capitalized long-term debt interest, excluding employee defined benefit plans net interest, as well as recoveries onredemption and repayment of debt, calculated on a 12-month trailing basis. Any losses recorded on the redemption of debt are included in netinterest. This measure is similar to the coverage ratio covenant in TELUS' credit facilities.3Free cash flow is a supplementary indicator of our operating performance, and there is no generally accepted industry definition of free cash flow.It should not be considered an alternative to the measures in the Consolidated statements of cash flows. Free cash flow excludes certain workingcapital changes (such as trade receivables and trade payables), proceeds from divested assets and other sources and uses of cash, as found inthe Consolidated statements of cash flows. It provides an indication of how much cash generated by operations is available after capitalexpenditures (excluding purchases of spectrum licences) that may be used to, among other things, pay dividends, repay debt, purchase shares ormake other investments. We exclude impacts of accounting changes that do not impact cash, such as IFRS 15 and IFRS 16. Free cash flow maybe supplemented from time to time by proceeds from divested assets or financing activities.4Net debt is defined as Long-term Debt (including current maturities of long-term debt) plus debt issue costs netted against long-term debt, Shortterm borrowings and Accumulated other comprehensive income amounts arising from financial instruments used to manage interest rate andcurrency risks associated with U.S. dollar-denominated long-term debt (excluding tax effects), less Cash and temporary investments and netderivative assets.5Net debt to EBITDA excluding restructuring and other costs is defined as Net debt as at the end of the period divided by the 12-month trailingEBITDA excluding restructuring and other costs. Historically, Net debt to EBITDA excluding restructuring and other costs is similar to the LeverageRatio covenant in TELUS’ credit facilities.6Capital expenditure intensity is defined as capital expenditures (excluding spectrum licences and non-monetary transactions) as a percentage oftotal operating revenues and other income.7Mobile phone Average billing per subscriber per month (ABPU) is calculated as network revenue derived from monthly service plan, roamingand usage charges, as well as monthly re-payments of the outstanding device balance owing from customers on contract; divided by the
