UNAUDITED SELECTED SUMMARY FINANCIAL INFORMATION ⁽¹⁾

For the periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019

(in millions of Canadian dollars)

BCE Inc. fully and unconditionally guarantees the payment obligations of its 100% owned subsidiary Bell Canada under the public debt issued by Bell Canada. Accordingly, the following summary financial information is provided by Bell Canada in compliance with the requirements of section 13.4 of National Instrument 51-102 (Continuous Disclosure Obligations) providing for an exemption for certain credit support issuers. The tables below contain selected summary financial information for (i) BCE Inc. (as credit supporter), (ii) Bell Canada (as credit support issuer) on a consolidated basis, (iii) BCE Inc.’s subsidiaries, other than Bell Canada, on a combined basis, (iv) consolidating adjustments, and (v) BCE Inc. and all of its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, in each case for the periods indicated. Such summary financial information for BCE Inc. and Bell Canada and all other subsidiaries is intended to provide investors with meaningful and comparable financial information about BCE Inc. and its subsidiaries. This summary financial information should be read in conjunction with BCE Inc.’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the unaudited consolidated interim financial report for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. On June 1, 2020, BCE announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell substantially all of its data centre operations. As a result, we have reclassified amounts related to the announced sale for the previous periods to discontinued operations in the income statements to make them consistent with the presentation for the current period.
