"The Company's revenues and operating income were up again in the first quarter of 2010," commented Pierre Karl Peladeau, President and Chief Executive Officer of Quebecor. "These results are due to the strong performance of the Telecommunications segment, which logged customer growth for all services for the 19th straight quarter, combined with improved results in the News Media segment. We are pressing ahead with the build-out of the Advanced Wireless Services ("AWS") network. Videotron has reached site- and tower-sharing agreements for nearly 90% of the required antenna sites. The equipment has been or is being installed at more than 70% of the sites for which an agreement has been reached and we are planning to launch services on our AWS network in summer 2010."

"The restructuring initiatives in the News Media segment continue to bear fruit," Mr. Peladeau said. "The segment's operating income was up significantly for the second consecutive quarter. As the numbers show, we have been able to keep our business model profitable by adapting it to the new realities in the news media industry. We have developed our publications into multiplatform brands delivering reliable, customizable content that can be accessed at all times. As our various initiatives are developed to their full potential, they will generate additional growth opportunities. These initiatives include continuation of the I.S.O. program, operational integration of Canoe into Sun Media Corporation, the start-up of Quebecor Media Network, the creation of the QMI Agency and the establishment of the QMI National Sales Office. We are confident that by pooling our production resources and media properties we will continue to differentiate ourselves through our fully integrated service offering."

Analysis of first quarter 2010 results


--  Quebecor's revenues increased $44.8 million (5.0%) to $948.1 million.
--  Revenues increased in Telecommunications (by $50.8 million or 10.6%
of segment revenues) mainly due to customer growth for all services,
and in Interactive Technologies and Communications ($1.1 million or
4.8%).
--  Revenues decreased in News Media (by $4.6 million or -1.8%) and
Leisure and Entertainment ($2.8 million or -4.4%).
--  Operating income rose $16.3 million (6.0%) to $288.5 million due to
increases in Telecommunications ($28.1 million or 12.6% of segment
operating income) and News Media ($10.3 million or 34.7%). Operating
income decreased in the Broadcasting segment by $5.6 million.
--  The changes in the fair value of Quebecor Media and in the Quebecor
stock price resulted in an aggregate $20.2 million unfavourable variance
in the consolidated stock option expense.
--  Quebecor's net income totalled $38.3 million ($0.60 per basic share) in
the first quarter of 2010, compared with $57.7 million ($0.90 per basic
share) in the same period of 2009.
--  The decrease was mainly due to:
--  $18.8 million unfavourable variance in gains and losses on valuation
and translation of financial instruments;
--  $12.0 million increase in financial expenses, including the $7.8
million unfavourable impact on short-term monetary items of exchange
rate variances;
--  recognition of $10.4 million loss on debt refinancing in the first
quarter of 2010;
--  $4.4 million increase in amortization charge.

Partially offset by:


--  $16.3 million increase in operating income;
--  $5.1 million decrease in income tax.
--  Adjusted income from continuing operations: $46.8 million in the first
quarter of 2010 ($0.73 per basic share), compared with $43.1 million
($0.67 per basic share) in the same period of 2009, an increase of $3.7
million ($0.06 per basic share) or 8.6%.

Financing activities


--  On January 14, 2010, Quebecor Media made a US$170.0 million early
payment on drawings on its term loan "B" and settled a corresponding
portion of its hedge agreements for the amount of $30.9 million, for a
total cash disbursement of $206.7 million. This transaction generated a
$10.4 million loss on debt refinancing, including the $6.5 million loss
already reported in other comprehensive income and reclassified in the
statement of income.
--  On January 14, 2010, Quebecor Media also extended the maturity date of
its $100.0 million revolving credit facility from January 2011 to
January 2013 and obtained certain other advantageous amendments to the
covenants attached to its credit facilities.
--  On January 13, 2010, Videotron closed a placement of $300.0 million
aggregate principal amount of its 7 1/8% Senior Notes maturing in 2020,
for net proceeds of $293.9 million (net of financing fees). This
transaction marks Videotron's inaugural offering on the Canadian high-
yield market, adding to its established presence in the U.S. high-yield
market.

DEFINITIONS

Operating income

In its analysis of operating results, the Company defines operating income (loss), as reconciled to net income under Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), as net income before amortization, financial expenses, loss (gain) on valuation and translation of financial instruments, charge for restructuring of operations and other special items, loss on debt refinancing, income tax and non-controlling interest. Operating income as defined above is not a measure of results that is consistent with Canadian GAAP. It is not intended to be regarded as an alternative to other financial operating performance measures or to the statement of cash flows as a measure of liquidity. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP. Management believes that operating income is a meaningful measure of performance. The Company uses operating income in order to assess the performance of its investment in Quebecor Media. The Company's management and Board of Directors use this measure in evaluating its consolidated results as well as the results of the Company's operating segments. This measure eliminates the significant level of depreciation and amortization of tangible and intangible assets and is unaffected by the capital structure or investment activities of the Company and its segments. Operating income is also relevant because it is a significant component of the Company's annual incentive compensation programs. A limitation of this measure, however, is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in the Company's segments. The Company also uses other measures that do reflect such costs, such as cash flows from segment operations and free cash flows from operations. In addition, measures like operating income are commonly used by the investment community to analyze and compare the performance of companies in the industries in which the Company is engaged. The Company's definition of operating income may not be the same as similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Table 2 below reconciles Quebecor's operating income (loss) with the closest Canadian GAAP measure.

Adjusted income from continuing operations

The Company defines adjusted income from continuing operations, as reconciled to net income under Canadian GAAP, as net income before gain (loss) on valuation and translation of financial instruments, charge for restructuring of operations, impairment of assets and other special items, impairment of goodwill and of intangible assets, and loss on debt refinancing, net of income tax and non-controlling interest. Adjusted income from continuing operations as defined above is not a measure of results that is consistent with Canadian GAAP. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP. Management believes that adjusted income from continuing operations is a meaningful measure that provides an indication of the long-term profitability of the Company's operating activities by eliminating the impact of unusual or one-time items. The Company's definition of adjusted income from continuing operations may not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Table 3 provides a reconciliation of adjusted income from continuing operations to the net income measure used in the consolidated financial statements of Quebecor.

Average Monthly Revenue per User

Average monthly revenue per user ("ARPU") is an industry metric that the Company uses to measure its cable television, Internet access, cable telephone and wireless telephone revenues per average basic cable customer. ARPU is not a measurement that is consistent with Canadian GAAP and the Company's definition and calculation of ARPU may not be the same as identically titled measurements reported by other companies. The Company calculates ARPU by dividing its combined cable television, Internet access, cable telephone and wireless telephone revenues by the average number of basic customers during the applicable period, and then dividing the resulting amount by the number of months in the applicable period.
