In addition to disclosing results in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), the Company also provides supplementary non‑IFRS measures as a method of evaluating the Company's performance and to provide a better understanding of how management views the Company's performance. These non‑IFRS or non‑Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") measures can include: segment profit (loss), segment profit margin, free cash flow, adjusted net loss attributable to shareholders, adjusted basic loss per share, net debt to segment profit, and new platform revenue. These are not measurements in accordance with IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to any other measure of performance under IFRS. Please see additional discussion and reconciliations under the Key Performance Indicators and Non‑GAAP Financial Measures section of the Company's Second Quarter 2026 Report to Shareholders.

Operational Highlights

Corus delivered strong content and distribution momentum, led by top ranked Canadian networks, new Canadian Original greenlights and premieres, and expanded international sales reach.

  • Corus greenlights new original content.

Numeris Personal People Meter Data, Total Canada. Spring 2026 Season to Date (January 5, 2026 to March 8, 2026) – confirmed until March 1, 2026, Adults aged 25‑54, Monday‑Sunday 2am‑2am, Average Minute Audience (000), Canadian Specialty Commercial English.

Financial Highlights
  • Free cash flow(1) of $1.3 million in Q2 and negative $52.3 million year‑to‑date compared to $46.0 million and $35.9 million, respectively, in the same comparable prior year periods. The decrease in free cash flow(1) for the second quarter is mainly attributable to lower cash provided by operating activities. The decrease in the year‑to‑date is mainly attributable to lower cash provided by operating activities and higher proceeds from sale of property in the prior year.
  • Net debt to segment profit(1) was 6.70 times as at February 28, 2026, up from 6.01 times at August 31, 2025, as a result of the decrease in segment profit(1) and increase in the amount drawn under the revolving credit facility, offset by lower lease liabilities.
  • As of February 28, 2026, the Company had $36.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and $35.0 million available to be drawn under its Revolving Facility.
  • On March 24, 2026, Corus received an order from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) to proceed with its previously announced recapitalization transaction (the "Recapitalization Transaction"), pursuant to a plan of arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act. The Recapitalization Transaction remains subject to, among other things, satisfaction of the terms and conditions in the support agreements with key stakeholders and the receipt of all customary and necessary regulatory approvals, including from the Canadian Radio‑television and Telecommunications Commission and the Toronto Stock Exchange.

Risks and Uncertainties

Significant risks and uncertainties affecting the Company and its business are discussed under the heading "Risks and Uncertainties" and "Seasonal Fluctuations" in the 2025 MD&A, as well as in the accompanying quarterly MD&A included in the Second Quarter 2026 Report to Shareholders under the heading "Risks and Uncertainties". These discussions are important to understanding the assumptions and factors which may affect the Company's outlook and results and are incorporated by reference.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes the non‑GAAP or non‑IFRS financial measures of segment profit (loss), segment profit margin, free cash flow, adjusted net income (loss) attributable to shareholders, adjusted basic earnings (loss) per share, net debt to segment profit, as well as supplementary financial measures not presented in the financial statements such as new platform revenue. Non‑GAAP or non‑IFRS measures that are not in accordance with, nor an alternate to, generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and may be different from non‑GAAP or non‑IFRS measures used by other companies. In addition, these non‑GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles.

Non‑GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. They are limited in value because they exclude charges that have a material effect on the Company's reported results and, therefore, should not be relied upon as the sole financial measures to evaluate the Company's financial results. The non‑GAAP financial measures are meant to supplement, and to be viewed in conjunction with, IFRS financial results. A reconciliation of the Company's non‑GAAP measures is included in the Company's most recent Report to Shareholders for the three and six months ended February 28, 2026, which is available on Corus' website at www.corusent.com as well as on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

To the extent any statements made in this document, or any of the documents referenced herein, contain information that is not historical, these statements are forward‑looking statements and may be forward‑looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws (collectively, "forward‑looking information"). This forward‑looking information relates to, among other things, the objectives, goals, strategies, targets, intentions, plans, estimates, and outlooks of Corus Entertainment Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Corus" or the "Company"), including, but not limited to, its: strategic, operational and business plans; anticipated revenue, cost, and subscription trends; applicable regulatory, judicial, and legislative changes, decisions, and regimes; expectations regarding financial and operational performance; expectations regarding costs, tariffs, taxes, and fees; capital, balance sheet management, and liability management plans, strategies, and actions and benefits thereof; ability to repay debt and/or maintain necessary access to loan and credit facilities; and the Company's previously‑announced proposed recapitalization transaction (the "Recapitalization Transaction") and the approval and completion thereof.

These factors also include factors and assumptions relating to, or impacting, the execution of the Company's proposed Recapitalization Transaction, including, without limitation: approval of the Recapitalization Transaction, including by applicable regulatory authorities, and stock exchanges; the ability to complete, execute, and implement the Recapitalization Transaction in the time and manner contemplated; the anticipated or expected effect or impacts of the Recapitalization Transaction on the Company and/or its stakeholders; the obligations and abilities of third parties to close or complete actions as part of the Recapitalization Transaction; the anticipated reduction of the Company's debt and related costs and interest expenses (including the amounts thereof); the exchange of existing equity and debt for new equity and debt; and the dilution or changes to the Company's outstanding shares in number or value and markets for them. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such information and the foregoing list is not exhaustive.

Additional information about these factors and about the material assumptions underlying any forward‑looking information may be found under the heading "Risks and Uncertainties" in the Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") for the year ended August 31, 2025, as may be updated, supplemented, or amended from time to time, including by quarterly MD&A, press releases, or other subsequent disclosure, any and all of which will be made available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Unless otherwise specified, all forward‑looking information in this document speaks as of the date of this document and may be updated or amended from time to time. Except as otherwise required by applicable securities laws, Corus disclaims any intention or obligation to publicly update or revise any forward‑looking information whether as a result of new information, events, or circumstances that may be made or arise from time to time.
