Dividends
Dividend policy and dividend growth programs
Dividends declared per share in 2024 were $1.5566, representing a 7.0 per cent increase over the previous year.
Our long-term dividend payout ratio guideline is calculated as 60 to 75 per cent of prospective free cash flow. In May 2022, we announced our intention to target ongoing semi-annual dividend increases, with the increase to be 7 to 10 per cent annually, through to the end of 2025. This further extends our multi-year dividend growth program originally announced in May 2011 and extended for three-year periods in May 2013, May 2016 and May 2019, and provides investors with ongoing clarity with respect to our intentions regarding our dividend growth program. Since 2011, we have raised our dividend 27 times, bringing the total number of our dividend increases to 34 since 2004.
Notwithstanding this, dividend decisions will continue to be dependent on earnings and free cash flow and subject to the Board’s assessment and determination of TELUS’ financial situation, capital requirements and economic outlook on a quarterly basis. There can be no assurance that the Company will maintain its dividend growth program through 2025.
TELUS advises that, unless noted otherwise, all quarterly dividends paid since January 2006 are eligible dividends under the Income Tax Act. Under this legislation, Canadian residents may be entitled to enhanced dividend tax credits that reduce the income tax otherwise payable.

.Dividend reinvestment and share purchase plan
Investors may take advantage of the automatic dividend reinvestment and share purchase plan to acquire additional common shares without fees. Under this plan, eligible shareholders can have their dividends reinvested automatically into additional shares. TELUS may elect to purchase common shares in the open market or by issuance from treasury (less a discount, if any, of up to 5 per cent). TELUS will provide advance notification to participants if and when an election is made to change the method of purchasing common shares, and if by treasury issuance, any discount offered or any change in the rate of discount. Effective October 1, 2019, until TELUS elects otherwise, TELUS offers shares from treasury at a 2 per cent discount from the average market price.
We also offer a share purchase feature, under which eligible shareholders can, on a monthly basis, buy TELUS shares (maximum $20,000 per calendar year and minimum $100 per transaction) without brokerage commissions or service charges.
This plan is managed by Computershare Trust Company of Canada.
