BCE Inc. reported a first-quarter profit attributable to common shareholders of $616 million, or 66 cents per diluted share, a slight decrease from $630 million, or 68 cents per diluted share, in the same quarter of the previous year. The company's operating revenue increased to $6.17 billion from $5.93 billion year-over-year, driven by growth in both service revenue and product revenue. Notably, BCE disclosed revenue from its Bell Business Markets segment for the first time, which saw a 9.7% increase, with AI-powered solutions revenue soaring by 113%. Despite an increase in postpaid mobile phone subscribers, customer churn rose, and average revenue per user saw a marginal decline due to increased promotions and changes in data plan subscriptions.
