	compared to 166,200 net additions in the fourth quarter of 2003. Prepaid net additions for the quarter were 58,900, compared to 6,400 net additions in the fourth quarter of 2003.
•	On a pro forma basis, assuming the acquisition of Microcell and the Wireless minority interest transactions, as described below, had occurred on January 1, 2003: quarterlyoperating revenue increased by 13.9% on a consolidated basis and by 20.3% at Wireless; quarterlyoperating profit increased by 25.1% on a consolidated basis and by 35.4% at Wireless; Wireless added 208,100 net postpaid voice and data subscribers for the quarter compared to 241,300 in the fourth quarter of 2003; and Wireless added 54,800 net prepaid voice subscribers for the quarter compared to 38,700 in the fourth quarter of 2003.

•	At Media, strong results at the Radio division, The Shopping Channel and Rogers Sportsnet more than offset continued softness in certain publications, as well as restructuring costs in the Publishing division, to produce a 22.5% year-over-year growth in Media’s quarterly operating profit.
•	On October 13, 2004, we completed the acquisition from AT&T Wireless Services, Inc. (“AWE”) of its 34% stake in Wireless for approximately $1.767 billion in cash, increasing our ownership of Wireless from 55.3% at September 30, 2004 to 89.3%.

The privatization was completed on December 31, 2004 and Wireless became a wholly-owned subsidiary. We issued a total of28.1 million Class B Non-Voting shares as consideration in this transaction.
•	Cable announced that its Digital Cable subscribers in Ontario now enjoy an all-digital channel lineup with all analog channels now digitized to provide digital-quality picture and sound.
•	Rogers ‘Better Choice Bundles’ were introduced during the quarter, giving customers increased flexibility in bundling their cable, Internet and wireless services. The Rogers Better Choice Bundles were very well received and contributed to the strong growth in digital and Internet subscribers in the quarter.
•	Media was awarded three radio licences by the CRTC for new FM stations in Halifax, Moncton, and Saint John that will, upon launch in the second half of 2005, provide comprehensive local news and information with in-depth coverage of local weather, traffic, sports and community events.

Consolidated Results of Operations for the Fourth Quarter Ended December 31, 2004

This discussion and these unaudited financial results should be read in conjunction with our 2003 Annual MD&A and 2003 Annual Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, as well as our 2004 interim financial and other recent securities filings. Our 2004 Annual MD&A and Audited Consolidated Financial Statements are expected to be filed with securities regulators in March 2005.

Throughout this document, percentage changes are calculated using numbers rounded to the decimal to which they appear. All dollar amounts are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.

BASIS OF PRO FORMA PRESENTATION

Certain information in this release, where identified, is presented or discussed on a pro forma basis as if the transactions relating to Wireless, as described below, had occurred on January 1, 2003. Such information appearing in this release is based on our historical financial statements, the historical financial statements of Microcell and the accounting for the purchases of Wireless shares and Microcell. In addition, schedules of selected quarterly and full year 2003 and 2004 pro forma financial and statistical data are included in the section below titled “Supplemental Information”.

Although we believe this presentation provides certain relevant context and comparative information for existing operations, the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial and operating data presented in this document is for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to represent what the results of

Rogers Communications Inc. 3 Fourth Quarter 2004

operations actually would have been if the transactions had occurred on January 1, 2003, nor does it purport to project the results of operations for any future period.

This pro forma information reflects, among other things, adjustments to Microcell's historically reported financial information to conform it to our respective accounting policies, the impacts of purchase accounting, including amortization of the acquired intangibles and fair value increments, financings associated with the acquisition of Microcell and the Wireless minority interests referenced above, and the impact of amortizing the deferred compensation expense arising on the exchange of stock options in Wireless into stock options to acquire Class B Non-Voting shares of Rogers Communications Inc. (“RCI”). The pro forma adjustments are based upon preliminary estimates and certain assumptions that we believe are reasonable. In preparing the pro forma financial information, the purchase consideration has been allocated on a preliminary basis to the fair value of assets acquired, including amortizable and non-amortizable intangible assets, and liabilities assumed based on management’s best estimates. Accounting policies used in the preparation of these statements are those disclosed in our 2003 annual Consolidated Financial Statements and 2004 Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

(1) As defined - see the “Key Performance Indicators - Operating Profit” section.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended December 31, 2004 was $340.1 million, an increase of $66.2 million, or 24.2%, from $273.9 million in the corresponding period of 2003. This increase isdue primarily to increased amortization of intangible assets arising on the acquisitions of Microcell and minority interest in Wireless of approximately $49.4 million, which, going forward are expected to increase amortization expense on a full year basis by approximately $300.0 million, subject to adjustments. On a pro forma basis, depreciation and amortization expense increased $14.0 million.

Operating Income

Operating income increased to $110.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2004, an increase of $15.0 million, or 15.7%, from the $95.4 million earned in the corresponding period of 2003. This increase primarily reflects the $81.2 million growth in operating profit partially offset by the $66.2 million increase in depreciation and amortization.

Interest on Long-term Debt

Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2004 was $162.7 million, an increase of $47.3 million from $115.4 million in the corresponding period in 2003. This increase was due to the increase in debt in the fourth quarter of 2004 associated with the acquisition of Microcell and AWE’s interest in Wireless.On a pro forma basis, interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2004 increased by $30.1 million from the prior year period.

Rogers Communications Inc. 6 Fourth Quarter 2004

Gain on Sale of Other Investments

Gain on sale of other investments for the three months ended December 31, 2004 was $9.0 million, an increase of $4.0 million from the corresponding period in 2003. This gain was primarily due to a gain realized on the exchange of Cogeco Cable Inc. shares for shares of Cogeco Inc.

Writedown of Investments

During the three months ended December 31, 2004, we reviewed the carrying value of all investments and determined a writedown of $1.9 million was required based on publicly traded values and estimated values of privately held companies.

Income (Loss) from Investments Accounted for by the Equity Method

We use the equity method to record losses and income from investments that we do not control, but over which we are able to exercise significant influence. The equity income for the three months ended December 31, 2004 of $0.9 million was an improvement of $17.9 million compared to the $17.0 million loss in the fourth quarter of 2003.

Effective July 31, 2004, we began to consolidate the Blue Jays. As a result, the Blue Jays’ losses for the fourth quarter of 2003 of $16.7 million are included in losses from investments accounted for by the equity method in that period, while the Blue Jays’ results for the fourth quarter of 2004 are consolidated with our operations.

Foreign Exchange Gain (Loss)

The foreign exchange gain of $21.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2004 arose primarily from the translation of the portion of U.S. dollar-denominated debt that is not hedged under Canadian GAAP requirements and reflects a strengthening of the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar from an exchange rate of $1.2639 as at September 30, 2004 to a rate of $1.2036 at December 31, 2004. In the corresponding period of 2003, the Canadian dollar also strengthened against the U.S. dollar, resulting in a foreign exchange gain of $61.6 million.

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

For the three months ended December 31, 2004, the change in fair value of our cross-currency interest rate exchange agreements not accounted for as hedges resulted in a loss of $1.3 million.

Loss on Repayment of Long-Term Debt

For the three months ended December 31, 2004, we wrote off related deferred financing costs of $7.9 million incurred in connection with the establishment and subsequent permanent repayment of a $1,750 million bridge credit facility during the quarter in connection with our acquisition of AWE’s interest in Wireless.

Investment and Other Income

For the three months ended December 31, 2004, investment and other income was $18.0 million, an increase of $17.0 million from income of $1.0 million in the corresponding period in 2003. The increase was primarily due to a $7.4 million dilution associated with stock option exercises at Wireless combined with investment income.

Rogers Communications Inc. 7 Fourth Quarter 2004

Income Tax Expense

Income taxes for the three months ended December 31, 2004 and for the corresponding period in 2003 consisted primarily of current income tax expense related to the Federal Large Corporations Tax.

Non-controlling Interest

Non-controlling interest represents the portion of Wireless’ income attributable to its minority shareholders prior to our acquisition of AWE’s interest in Wireless and the privatization of Wireless on December 31, 2004. The non-controlling interest charge of $5.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2004 represented approximately 44.7% of Wireless’ income from October 1, 2004, until October 13, 2004 when we completed our purchase of AWE’s 34% ownership interest in Wireless, and 11.2% of Wireless’ income from October 13, 2004 to December 31, 2004, including the dilution effect from the exercise of stock options. The non-controlling interest in Wireless was reduced from 11.2% to nil on December 31, 2004 when we privatized Wireless. The non-controlling interest of $1.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2003 represents the approximate 44.2% interest in Wireless’ net loss during the three month period ended December 31, 2003. Reflecting our 100% ownership of Wireless effective December 31, 2004, in future periods the amount of the non-controlling interest in Wireless’ income will be nil.

Net Income (Loss) and Earnings (Loss) per Share

We recorded a loss of $15.5 million in the three months ended December 31, 2004, or a loss per share of $0.12 per share, compared to net income of $68.8 million or earnings per share of $0.24 per share in 2003. The year-over-year decline in net income (loss) reflects primarily the increase in operating profit offset by the increases in depreciation and amortization and in interest on long-term debt.

Distributions and accretions on Convertible Preferred Securities, totalling $13.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2004 and $13.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2003, had the impact of increasing the basic loss per share by $0.06 for 2004 and decreasing basic earnings per share by $0.06 for 2003.

PURCHASE OF ROGERS WIRELESS SHARES

On September 13, 2004, we announced an agreement with JVII General Partnership ("JVII"), a partnership owned by AWE, whereby we agreed to purchase all of JVII's 27,647,888 Class A Multiple Voting shares ("Class A shares") and 20,946,284 Class B Restricted Voting shares ("Class B shares") of Wireless for a cash purchase price of $36.37 per share totalling $1,767.4 million. We closed this transaction on October 13, 2004. As a result of the transaction, the shareholders' agreement among RCI, Wireless and JVII dated August 16, 1999, as amended, was terminated; the registration rights agreement between Wireless and JVII, also dated August 16, 1999, was terminated; and JVII’s four nominees to Wireless’ Board of Directors resigned.

The sale by AWE, which is now part of Cingular Wireless LLC, of its shares of Wireless does not impact or change the extensive North American wireless voice and data roaming capabilities between the companies. Customers of Wireless and Cingular continue to enjoy the benefits of seamless wireless roaming between Canada and the U.S. on North America's largest combined GSM/GPRS/EDGE network.

Upon closing of this transaction on October 13, 2004, our ownership of Wireless increased from 55.3% at September 30, 2004 to approximately 89.3%.

Rogers Communications Inc. 8 Fourth Quarter 2004

On November 11, 2004 we announced an exchange offer to purchase all of the publicly-owned Class B Restricted Voting shares of Wireless, with the consideration being 1.75 RCI Class B Non-Voting shares for each Wireless Class B Restricted Voting share held. On December 31, 2004, we announced that upon expiration of the exchange offer, we had acquired 93.5% of the Wireless Class B Restricted Voting shares held by the public. The result of the exchange offer was sufficient to enable us to proceed immediately to take Wireless private by way of a compulsory acquisition of all of the remaining Wireless shares owned by the public under Section 206 of the Canada Business Corporations Act. The compulsory acquisition was completed on December 31, 2004 and Wireless became a wholly-owned subsidiary.We issued a total of28,072,856 Class B Non-Voting shares as consideration in this transaction.

See the section below titled “Purchase Accounting for Acquisition of Wireless Shares” for a discussion of the various accounting and purchase price allocation matters associated with the purchase of shares from AWE and the exchange offer.

ACQUISITION OF MICROCELL

On September 20, 2004, together with Wireless, we announced an all cash offer of $35.00 per share to acquire all of the issued and outstanding equity securities of Microcell, Canada’s fourth largest wireless communications provider. Microcell’s Board of Directors recommended that its shareholders tender to Wireless’ offer, we obtained certain necessary regulatory approvals and the acquisition was successfully completed effective November 9, 2004. The acquisition of Microcell has made Wireless the largest wireless operator in Canada with over 5.5 million wireless voice and data customers across the country at December 31, 2004, and the only Canadian wireless provider operating on the world standard GSM/GPRS/EDGE wireless technology platform. We believe that the integration of Microcell, amongst other things, will lead to significant operating and capital spending efficiencies.

(2)	Effective December 1, 2004, voluntarily deactivating subscribers are required to continue billing and service for 30 days from the date termination is requested, consistent with the subscriber agreement terms and conditions, resulting in approximately 15,900 additional net postpaid subscribers being included in the fourth quarter of 2004.

(4)	Effective November 9, 2004, the deactivation of prepaid subscribers acquired from Microcell are recognized after 180 days of no usage to conform to the Wireless prepaid churn definition impacting approximately 44,000 prepaid subscribers.
(5)	Effective at the beginning of second quarter 2004, 74,843 inactive prepaid customers were removed by Microcell from their retail customer base. The increase in the number of inactive prepaid accounts was due primarily to the combined impact of continuing aggressive actions by competitors to attract Microcell’s customers, a reduction in the validity period of certain airtime vouchers, and the short term success of some of Microcell’s prepaid retention activities in 2003 that temporarily revived a number of dormant prepaid accounts.
(6)	In 2003, we determined that subscribers who had only non-revenue usage should not have been included in the prepaid subscriber base and, as such, made an adjustment to the second quarter of 2003 opening prepaid subscriber base.

Wireless Network Revenue

Network revenue of $729.9 million accounted for89.7% of total Wireless revenues in the three months ended December 31, 2004, and increased36.1% from the corresponding period in 2003. This increase was driven by the acquisition of Microcell’s subscriber base on November 9, 2004 and the 4.43% increase in blended ARPU. On a proforma basis, for the acquisition of Microcell, quarterly networkrevenue increased 19.6% over the fourth quarter of 2003. The pro forma revenue growth reflects the9.6% pro forma increase in the number of retail wireless voice and data subscribers from December 31, 2003 combined with the 7.0% year-over-year increase in blended postpaid and prepaid ARPU.

Wirelessended the quarter with a total of 5,518,200 retail subscribers, 1,293,800 of which were added upon the acquisition of Microcell effective November 9, 2004. Net additions of postpaid voice and data subscribers for the quarter, which includes net additions at Microcell from November 9, 2004 to December 31, 2004, were 185,800, compared to 166,200 net additions in the fourth quarter of 2003. On a pro forma basis, Wireless added 208,100 net postpaid voice and data subscribers for the quarter compared to 241,300 in the fourth quarter of 2003. Effective December 1, 2004, voluntarily deactivating subscribers are required to continue billing and service for 30 days from the date termination is requested, consistent with the subscriber agreement terms and conditions, resulting in approximately 15,900 additional net postpaid subscribers being included in the quarter.

Prepaid net additions for the quarter were 58,900, compared to 6,400 net additions in the fourth quarter of 2003. On a pro forma basis, prepaid voice subscriber net additions were 54,800 for the quarter compared to 38,700 in the fourth quarter of 2003. Effective November 9, 2004, the deactivation of prepaid subscribers acquired from Microcell are recognized after 180 days of no usage to conform to the Wireless prepaid churn definition, impacting approximately 44,000 prepaid subscribers on an as reported and pro forma basis.

Postpaid voice and data subscriber ARPU of $60.52 in the quarter represented an increase of 5.6% over the same quarter ended December 31, 2003. Pro forma postpaid ARPU grew by 5.3% in the fourth quarter of 2004. The increase in actual and pro forma postpaid ARPU reflects the continued growth of wireless data and roaming revenues and an increase in the penetration of optional services. As Canada’s only GSM/GPRS/EDGE provider we expect to continue to experience increases in outbound roaming revenues from our subscribers traveling outside of Canada, as well as strong growth in inbound roaming revenues from visitors to Canada who utilize our network.

Data revenues grew to $48.9 million ($51.1 million on a pro forma basis) for the three months ended December 31, 2004. Data now represents approximately 6.7% (6.4% on a pro forma basis)

Rogers Communications Inc. 12 Fourth Quarter 2004

of total network revenue in the fourth quarter of 2004, reflecting the continued rapid growth of Blackberry, SMS and other wireless data services and applications.

Prepaid ARPU increased to $13.01 in the fourth quarter of 2004, compared to $12.11 in the fourth quarter of 2003. This increase was primarily a result of the acquisition of Microcell’s higher ARPU prepaid subscriber base. Pro forma for the acquisition of Microcell, quarterly prepaid ARPU decreased 6.0% versus 2003 to $13.62 with thepro forma decline primarily reflecting the increased focus by Microcell on higher revenue postpaid subscribers.

Postpaid voice and data subscriber churn improved to1.89% in the three months ended December 31, 2004 from 1.99% in the corresponding period of 2003 reflecting the benefits of generally longer term contracts and targeted retention initiatives as well as the impact of implementing the thirty day notice period requirement during the quarter for voluntarily deactivating subscribers. This had the impact of reducing postpaid voice and data subscriber churn by 0.14% in the fourth quarter of 2004. During the fourth quarter, Wireless continued to experience increased levels of customers being deactivated for non-payment, however more restrictive credit requirements implemented early in the fourth quarter are expected to reduce non-pay deactivations in future periods. On a pro forma basis, postpaid voice and data subscriber churn improved to 1.95% from 2.14% in the fourth quarter of 2003.

Prepaid churn decreased to 2.16% from 2.73% in the prior year period primarily as a result of conforming the Microcell prepaid subscriber deactivation period to that of Wireless, impacting approximately 44,000 prepaid subscribers in the quarter. This had the impact of reducing prepaid churn by 1.39% in the fourth quarter. On a pro forma basis, prepaid churn decreased to 2.47% from 3.31% in the fourth quarter of 2003 as a result of conforming the Microcell prepaid subscriber deactivation period to that of Wireless.

One-way messaging (paging) subscriber churn declined year-over-year to3.27%, while one-way messaging ARPU increased by 11.9%, reflecting pricing changes implemented in earlier quarters. With196,100 paging subscribers, we continue to view paging as a profitable but mature business segment, and recognize that churn will likely continue at relatively high rates as one-way messaging subscribers increasingly migrate to two-way messaging and converged voice and data services.

Wireless Equipment Revenue

Revenue from wireless voice, data and messaging equipment sales, including activation fees and net of equipment subsidies (“equipment revenue”), was $83.7 million, up $30.5 million, or57.3%, from the corresponding period in 2003. The increase in equipment revenue reflects the higher volume of handset upgrades associated with subscriber retention programs, combined with the generally higher price points of more sophisticated handsets and devices, and the increased volume of postpaid voice and data subscriber gross additions. Equipment revenue on a pro forma basis increased by $18.7 million over the fourth quarter of 2003, reflecting primarily a higher volume of handset upgrades.

(1) Effective January 1, 2004, we adopted new Canadian accounting standards regarding the timing of revenue recognition and the classification of certain items as revenue or expense. As a result of the adoption of these new accounting standards, certain changes to the classification have been made for all periods presented.

Total Wireless operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2004 were $599.5 million, up $176.9 million, or 41.9%, over the corresponding period in 2003. Microcell accounted for approximately 57% of the increase. Pro forma for the acquisition of Microcell, total operating expenses increased by $92.1 million, or 16.0%, over the fourth quarter of 2003.

The $23.3 million increase in the quarterly cost of equipment sales reflects the higher volume of gross additions and handset upgrades.

Sales and marketing expenses increased by $66.1 million, or 59.1%, in the fourth quarter of 2004 compared to the prior year as a result of the impact of the Microcell acquisition and higher costs associated with acquiring customers on longer term contracts. The $47.1 million year-over-year increase in quarterly total sales and marketing expenses, on a pro forma basis, primarily reflects heightened marketing activity during the fourth quarter of 2004 associated with, amongst other things, the integration of Microcell, including initiatives to migrate Microcell customers to long term contracts. These factors resulted in the12.7% pro forma increase in our sales and marketing costs per gross addition to $391.

Rogers Communications Inc. 14 Fourth Quarter 2004

Operating, general and administrative expenses increased by $87.5 million, or 48.1%, in the fourth quarter of 2004 compared to 2003 as a result of the acquisition of Microcell and higher credit and collection costs, increases in retention spending and growth in network operating expenses reflective of the growth in our subscriber base, offset by savings related to more favourable roaming arrangements and operating efficiencies across various functions. The year-over-year increase in operating, general and administrative expenses on a pro forma basis of $53.6 million, or21.0%, compared to the corresponding period in 2003, is primarily attributable to these same factors.

The $2.26 year-over-year increase in average monthly operating expense per subscriber, excluding sales and marketing expenses, on a pro forma basis, in the fourth quarter of 2004 reflects our increased spending on handset upgrades associated with targeted retention programs and the impact of increases in operating, general and administrative expenses in advance of our integration of Microcell. On a pro forma basis, total retention spending (including subsidies on handset upgrades) was $63.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2004 as compared to $47.7 million in the corresponding period in 2003. Retention spending, on both an absolute and a per subscriber basis, is expected to continue to grow as wireless market penetration in Canada deepens.

Wireless Operating Profit

Operating profit grew by $47.2 million, or28.3%, to $214.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 2004 from $166.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2003 as network revenue growth of 36.1% was offset by growth in operating expenses of 41.9%. Pro forma for the acquisition of Microcell, operating profit increased by $57.6 million, or 35.4%, over the fourth quarter of 2003 and pro forma quarterly operating profit as a percentage of network revenue, or operating profit margin, increased to27.5% from 24.3% as the 19.6% increase in network revenue outstripped the 16.0% increase in total operating expenses.

Wireless Property, Plant and Equipment Expenditures

PP&E expenditures totalled $133.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2004, an increase of $14.3 million, or 12.0%, from $119.1 million in the corresponding period in 2003. Pro forma for the acquisition of Microcell, PP&E expenditures increased by $14.5 million over the fourth quarter of 2003.

Network-related PP&E expenditures in the fourth quarter of 2004 totalled $93.2 million and reflected primarily $33.4 million for capacity expansion of the GSM/GPRS network and transmission. The remaining balance of $59.8 million in network-related PP&E expenditures related primarily to technical upgrade projects, including new cell sites, operational support systems and the addition of new services. Other PP&E expenditures consisted of $28.7 million for information technology initiatives and $11.5 million for call centres and other facilities and equipment.

(1) Effective in the third quarter of 2004, Cable modified the reporting of Internet subscribers to include only those subscribers with service installed, operating and on billing and to exclude those subscribers who have subscribed to the service but installation of the service was still pending. Historically, Cable had included both those subscribers that had the service installed and those with installations pending. Prior period results for Internet subscribers and net additions have been conformed to this current presentation.

Core Cable Revenue

The 3.9% increase in Core cable revenue, which accounted for 62.9% of total cable operating revenue in the quarter ended December 31, 2004, reflects a $4.8 million year-over-year increase in analog cable service due to price increases in prior periods, with the remaining $7.2 million increase primarily attributable to increased penetration of our incremental digital-only cable services such as VOD, premium pay, specialty channels and ethnic programming.

The increase in Core cable average monthly revenue per subscriber to $47.35 from $45.32 reflects the growing penetration of digital products, a continued up-selling of customers into incremental programming packages, and pricing changes.

Internet Revenue

The growth of $14.6 million, or 17.0%, in Internet revenue reflects the 20.4% year-over-year increase in the Internet subscriber base. Average monthly revenue per residential Internet subscriber for the three-month period ended December 31, 2004 was $35.96, a decrease from $37.14 in the corresponding period in 2003, due to increased promotional activity as well as to an increase in the proportion of subscribers to lower priced entry-level Internet offerings. Year-over-year, the Internet subscriber base has grown by 158,800, resulting in 28.5% Internet penetration as a percentage of homes passed.

Video Stores Revenue

The increase of $6.9 million, or 8.4%, in Rogers Video stores revenue reflects the combination of a 2.6% increase in same-store revenues, as well as an increase in the number of stores at December 31, 2004, to 294 compared to 279 at December 31, 2003. (“Same stores” are defined as those stores that were open for a full year in both 2004 and 2003.) The strong Video store sales results as compared to 2003 are attributable to an increase in the number of popular titles that were available in the quarter and to higher average revenue per customer visit. At the end of December 2004, many of the Rogers Video stores were integrated stores that offered access to a wide variety of cable, Internet and Rogers Wireless products and services, in addition to the more traditional DVD and video rental and sales offerings.

Rogers Communications Inc. 17 Fourth Quarter 2004

 (1) Effective January 1, 2004, we adopted new Canadian accounting standards regarding the timing of revenue recognition and the classification of certain items as revenue or expense. As a result of the adoption of these new accounting standards, certain changes to the recognition and classification have been made for all periods presented.

The 5.1% year-over-year increase in Cable sales and marketing expenses reflects Cable’s increased level of Internet and digital subscriber growth in the quarter. The level of marketing expenditure was reduced in the quarter following three quarters of stepped-up level of investment in market awareness of its unique digital cable offerings. Also included in the quarter was a marketing campaign to support the Rogers Yahoo! Hi-Speed Internet offering recently launched in Newfoundland.

The 5.6% growth in Cable’s operating, general and administrative expenses, compared to the same period in 2003, reflects increased costs of programming associated with the growth in digital cable subscribers and the cost related to the deployment of digital set-top terminals, which total approximately $5.2 million increased pension expense of $0.8 million and the impact of expensing stock options which, began in 2004, of $1.4 million

The $1.8 million increase in cost of sales at the Video stores reflects the higher sales volumes as well as the increased number of store locations. The growth in store locations, from 279 stores at December 31, 2003 to 294 stores at December 31, 2004, was the primary driver of the increase in Video store sales and marketing expenses, which includes the cost of operating the stores.

Cable Operating Profit

The 8.4% growth in total Cable operating profit reflects the 6.8% revenue growth partially offset by the 5.5% increase in total Cable operating expenses. The 4.0% increase in operating profit at the Video stores was due to increased same-store revenues, operating efficiencies and improved margins on the rental and sale of products.

The revenue and expense changes described above resulted in Cable’s quarterly operating margin increasing to 43.0% compared to 42.3% in the corresponding period of 2003. Video operating margins decreased to 11.7% in the three month period ended December 31, 2004 from 12.2% in the corresponding period of the prior year, as described above.

Cable Property, Plant and Equipment Expenditures

The nature of the cable television business is such that the construction, rebuild and expansion of a cable system is highly capital-intensive. Cable categorizes its PP&E expenditures according to a standardized set of reporting categories that were developed and agreed to by the U.S. cable television industry and which facilitate comparisons of PP&E expenditures between different cable companies. Under these industry definitions, Core Cable PP&E expenditures are classified into the following five categories:

• Customer premises equipment (“CPE”), which includes the equipment and the associated installation costs;

• Scaleable infrastructure, which includes non-CPE costs to meet business growth and to provide service enhancements, including many of the costs to date of our cable telephony initiative;

• Line extensions, which includes network costs to enter new service areas;

• Upgrade and rebuild, which includes the costs to modify or replace existing coaxial cable and fibre optic network electronics; and

• Support capital, which includes the costs associated with the purchase, replacement or enhancement of non-network assets.

Rogers Cable PP&E expenditures	$	243.3	$	174.4		68.9			39.5		$	587.9	$	509.6		78.3			15.4

The significant factors driving the 39.5% year-over-year increase in Cable’s PP&E expenditures were spending on scaleable infrastructure, which increased by $76.3 million, the majority of which was related to spending on its cable telephony deployment initiative; and an increase in support capital of $8.3 million, most of which went to replacing service vehicles. These increases were offset by a $22.8 million reduction in spending on upgrades and rebuild. Spending on Cable’s cable telephony deployment initiative totalled $78.2 million in the quarter and $106.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004. As at December 31, 2004, more than 93% of the cable network was upgraded to 750 MHz or greater, representing 100% completion of all urban areas we serve, and 85% of the cable network was upgraded to 860 MHz, as compared to approximately 39% at 860 MHz at December 31, 2003.

Overview of Media Revenue, Expense and Operating Profit

Media’s revenue of $246.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 2004 represented an increase of $2.5 million, or 1.0%, from $243.9 million in the corresponding period of 2003. The Media revenue growth was led by Radio, which increased 13.6%, The Shopping Channel, which grew 9.4%, and Television, which increased 1.8%, from the contribution from the acquisition of our 50% interest in Dome Productions. This growth was partially offset by declines at our Publishing properties.

Total Media operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2004 were $194.2 million, down $7.1 million, or 3.5%, over the corresponding period in 2003. Total operating profit in the three months ended December 31, 2004 was $52.2 million, a year-over-year increase of $9.6 million, or22.5%, compared to the corresponding period in 2003.

Further details with respect to revenue, operating expense and operating profit results for each of the divisions of Media are provided below.

Publishing

Publishing experienced a decrease in revenue of $8.5 million in the three months ended December 31, 2004 as compared to the corresponding period in 2003 due largely to the transfer of Rogers Medical Intelligence Solutions (“RMIS”) out of Rogers Media to RCI, the closing of the Physicians Financial News (“PFN”) publication and the continued softness of certain trade and business focused publications, offset somewhat by the continued strength of Publishing’s consumer

The operating profit decline of $2.9 million at Publishing for the quarter endedDecember 31, 2004 was due to the decrease in revenue combined with certain restructuring costs at the consumer publications division announced in November 2004, partially offset by a decrease in operating expenses as a result of the transfer of RMIS out of Media and the closing of PFN as well as ongoing cost savings within the Publishing division.

Radio

Radio operations include the results of Media’s 43 FM and AM radio stations. The $7.2 million year-over-year increase in Radio’s quarterly revenues reflects the success of the Jack-FM format in several of our markets and the continued success of 680 News in Toronto. With operating expenses at Radio decreasing by 4.4% in the same period, quarterly operating profit growth at Radio grew by 63.6% to $22.9 million.

Television

Television operations include the results of OMNI.1, OMNI.2, Rogers Sportsnet and our 50% interest in Dome Productions. The $0.9 million quarterly increase in Television’s revenues primarily reflects the 50% interest in Dome Productions acquired during 2004, as Television in general experienced softness with respect to national advertising sales at both the Sportsnet and OMNI properties. While the NHL player lockout drove the decline in advertising sales at Sportsnet, it also led to a significant reduction in programming and production costs as a result of games not being produced or aired. The reduction in costs associated with the NHL player lockout was partially offset by the impact on costs as a result of the acquisition of Dome Productions, resulting in the $7.3 million reduction in Television’s operating expenses. The combination of revenue growth and a decrease in operating costs drove the $8.2 million increase in Television’s operating profit compared to the corresponding period in 2003.

The Shopping Channel

The Shopping Channel’s revenue growth of $5.6 million reflects a generally improved retail climate in the current quarter relative to the prior year quarter and strong sales of selected product categories including jewellery and health and beauty products. Also during the quarter, The Shopping Channel’s off-air sales, which includes catalogue, Internet, and physical store sales, increased to 30.0% of revenue compared to 28.4% in the corresponding period of 2003. The strong revenue growth, combined with reduced product return rates and operating efficiencies at its new national distribution centre drove the 7.2% increase in operating profit at The Shopping Channel.

BLUE JAYS OPERATING AND FINANCIAL RESULTS

Effective July 31, 2004, we began to consolidate the Blue Jays. As a result, equity losses of the Blue Jays for the first seven months of 2004 are included in losses from investments accounted for by the equity method, and the financial results for the remaining five months of 2004, including all of the fourth quarter, are consolidated with our operations.

During the three months ended December 31, 2004, the Blue Jays generated revenue of $19.8 million primarily related to baseball revenue, which comprises home game and concession revenue, and revenue generated from Major League Baseball’s revenue sharing agreement whereby funds are distributed to and from clubs based on the clubs’ respective revenues.

Rogers Communications Inc. 21 Fourth Quarter 2004

Operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2004 were $16.9 million, which consist primarily of player salaries, team costs, scouting and stadium operations.As a result, operating profit of $2.9 million was recognized for the three months ended December 31, 2004.

On November 29, 2004, the Blue Jays announced an agreement to acquire SkyDome, the home playing field of the Blue Jays, for approximately $25.0 million, subject to closing adjustments. SkyDome, a  retractable roofed stadium that seats over 50,000 guests is the largest entertainment venue in Canada. The acquisition of SkyDome was completed on January 31, 2005 and the facility has been renamed Rogers Centre.

Effective January 1, 2005, ownership and management of Rogers’ sports operations was transferred to Media. As such, beginning in the first quarter of 2005, the results of operations of the Blue Jays and Rogers Centre will be reported as part of the Media segment.

OVERVIEW OF RECENT FINANCING ACTIVITIES

In October, 2004, we established a $1.75 billion bridge credit facility with a group of Canadian financial institutions to fund (together with cash on hand) the $1.767 billion purchase price of the 34% stake in Wireless from AWE. This bridge facility was permanently repaid and cancelled in full in 2004 with $350.0 million of cash on hand together with the proceeds of a $1.4 billion loan from Wireless to us.

In October, 2004, Wireless amended its $700 million bank credit facility to provide, among other things, for a two-year extension to the maturity date and the reduction schedule so that the bank credit facility now reduces by $140.0 million on each of April 30, 2008 and April 30, 2009 with the maturity date on April 30, 2010. The provision for early maturity in the event that Wireless’ 10 ½% Senior Secured Notes due 2006 are not repaid (by refinancing or otherwise) on or prior to December 31, 2005 has been eliminated. In addition, certain financial ratios to be maintained on a quarterly basis have been made less restrictive, the restriction on the annual amount of PP&E expenditures has been eliminated and the restriction on the payment of dividends and other shareholder distributions has been eliminated other than in the case of a default or event of defaults under the terms of the bank credit facility.

On November 30, 2004, Wireless completed an aggregate debt issuance in the principal amount of approximately US$2.356 billion (approximately C$2.807 billion) which consisted of: C$460.0 million 7.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2011; US$550.0 million floating rate Senior Secured Notes due 2010; US$470.0 million 7.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2012; US$550.0 million 7.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2015; and US$400.0 million 8.0% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012. On an economic basis, all of the U.S. dollar-denominated debt was hedged with respect to fluctuations in foreign exchange with cross-currency interest rate exchange agreements.

On November 30, 2004, Cable completed an aggregate debt issuance in the principal amount of approximately US$426.7 million (approximately C$509.0 million) consisting of C$175.0 million 7.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2011 and US$280.0 million 6.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2015. All of the U.S. dollar-denominated debt was hedged with respect to fluctuations in foreign exchange with cross-currency interest rate exchange agreements.

At December 31, 2004, our long-term committed bank credit facilities provided for aggregate credit of $2.28 billion, none of which was drawn. Generally, access to these credit facilities is subject to compliance within certain leverage ratios; and at December 31, 2004, based upon the most

restrictive covenants under our bank credit facilities and public debt instruments, we could have borrowed additional long-term debt under existing credit facilities of approximately $2.26 billion, including $400.0 million available for the repayment of debt maturing at Cable in 2005. In addition, at December 31, 2004 there was $244.0 million of available cash on hand.

Interest Rate and Foreign Exchange Management

Consolidated Economic Hedge Analysis

As a result of the financing activity during the fourth quarter, including entering into new cross-currency interest rate agreements to hedge all of the new U.S. dollar-denominated debt against fluctuations in foreign exchange, our consolidated hedged position, on an economic basis, changed during the fourth quarter as noted below.

(1)	Pursuant to the requirements for hedge accounting under AcG-13, on December 31, 2004, the Company accounted for 87.1% of its cross currency interest rate exchange agreements as hedges against designated U.S. dollar-denominated debt. As a result, 81.1% of consolidated U.S. dollar-denominated debt is hedged for accounting purposes versus 93.1% on an economic basis.
(2)	Long-term debt includes the effect of the cross-currency interest rate exchange agreements.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS AND NON-GAAP MEASURES

We measure the success of our strategies using a number of key performance indicators that are defined and described in our 2003 Annual MD&A. These key performance indicators are not measurements under Canadian or U.S. GAAP, but we believe they allow us to appropriately measure our performance against our operating strategy as well as against the results of our peers and competitors. They include:

• Revenue and average monthly revenue per subscriber (ARPU);

• Subscriber counts and subscriber churn;

• Operating expenses and average monthly operating expense per Wireless subscriber; and

• Sales and marketing costs per gross Wireless subscriber addition.

We also refer to the following three other non-GAAP measures that are used in various financial tables and discussions throughout this document. The related definitions of these items are as follows:

Operating Profit

Operating profit is defined as net income before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, income taxes and non-operating items, which include losses from investments accounted for by the equity method, foreign exchange gains (losses), loss on repayment of long-term debt, change in the fair value of derivative instruments, gain (loss) on the sale of other investments, writedown of investments, investment and other income (expense) and non-controlling interest. On a pro forma basis, operating profit also excludes special charges which are included in pro forma net income and were incurred by Microcell in connection with events leading up to its acquisition by Wireless in 2004 in respect of financial and legal fees and the accelerated vesting of options under Microcell’s stock option plan. Operating profit is a standard measure used in the communications industry to assist us in understanding and comparing operating results, and is often referred to in the industry either as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) or as operating income before depreciation and amortization (OIBDA). We believe this is an important measure as it allows us to assess our ongoing businesses without the impact of depreciation or amortization expenses as well as other non-operating factors. Operating profit is intended to measure our ability to incur or service debt, to invest in PP&E, and to pay dividends, and it allows us to compare ourselves to peers and competitors that have different capital or organizational structures. This measure is not a defined term under GAAP.

Operating Profit Margin

For Cable and Media, we calculate operating profit margin by dividing operating profit by total revenue; and for Wireless, we calculate it by dividing operating profit by network revenue.Network revenue rather than total revenue is used in the calculation because it excludes equipment sales revenue andthus better reflects Wireless’ core business activity of providing wireless services. This measure is not a defined term under GAAP.

Property, Plant and Equipment (PP&E) Expenditures

PP&E expenditures included in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows comprise the additions to PP&E that we actually took title to in the period. Accordingly, for the purposes of comparing PP&E, we believe that additions to PP&E outlays on the accrual basis best reflect our cost of PP&E expenditures in a period and provide a more accurate determination for purposes of period-to-period comparisons. This measure is not a defined term under GAAP.

Rogers Communications Inc. 24 Fourth Quarter 2004

2005 GUIDANCE

The following initial financial and operational guidance for the full year 2005 is forward-looking information.

Wireless

Wireless expects to report network revenues (excluding revenue from equipment sales) of approximately $3,415 million to $3,465 million for the full year 2005. Operating profit before management fees excluding non-recurring costs associated with the integration of Microcell is expected to be in the $1,250 million to $1,300 million range in 2005. Wireless expects 2005 PP&E expenditures, excluding one-time PP&E expenditures associated with the integration of Microcell or potential expenditures associated with the development or deployment of fixed wireless initiatives, to be between $475 million and $500 million. Total wireless voice and data net subscriber additions, including postpaid and prepaid retail subscribers, are expected to be approximately 450,000 to 500,000.

Non-recurring cash integration costs associated with the integration of Microcell are expected to be between $200 million and $230 million. Of these non-recurring integration costs,approximately 10% are expected to be recorded as operating expense, 35% are expected to be recorded as PP&E expenditures, and 55% have been recorded as part of the acquisition purchase price accrual. The integration of Microcell is expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2005.

Wireless expects these non-recurring expenditures to enable it to integrate Microcell’s assets and functions with those of its own to achieve significant operating and capital expenditure savings in the areas of network operations and management, roaming and long distance costs, handset costs, finance and information technologies, and general corporate management. These savings, which reflect our management’s assumptions as to what the results of the combined operations would have been had Microcell not been integrated, are expected to approximate $100 million per year of annualized operating expense savings by 2006 by which time Wireless estimates that the operating profit margin of the integrated operations will have returned to levels approximating those achieved prior to the acquisition of Microcell.The PP&E guidance for 2005 reflects approximately $100 million of PP&E expenditure savings versus our management’s assumptions as to what the results of the combined operations would have been had Microcell not been integrated.

Cable

Cable expects to generate revenue in the $2,090 million to $2,130 million range and operating profit before management fees (including expenses associated with cable telephony) in the $720 million to $735 million range for full year 2005. Cable estimates that the impact associated with the launch of cable telephony beginning in mid-2005 will negatively impact operating profit in 2005 by approximately $15-20 million. Cable estimates it will add between 140,000 and 170,000 net Internet subscribers and between 175,000 and 275,000 net digital cable subscribers (households) during 2005. Basic cable subscriber levels are expected to remain relatively flat to a decline of up to 1%. Total PP&E expenditures at Cable in 2005 are expected to be between $590 million and $690 million, of which approximately$110 million to $130 million will be directly associated with the deployment of cable telephony.

Media

Media, excluding Sports operations, expects to report revenue of approximately $925 million to $950 million and operating profit before management fees of between $130 million to $140 million in 2005. Separately, Media expects the Sports operations which it assumed ownership and management of on January 1, 2005, which includes the Blue Jays and the recently acquired Rogers Centre, to contribute revenues of between $150 million and $160 million and report negative operating profit of between $18 million to $22 million in 2005.

Purchase Accounting for Acquisition of Wireless Shares

As discussed in the section above entitled “Purchase of Rogers Wireless Shares”, on October 13, 2004, we acquired the 34% interest of Wireless held by AWE for cash consideration totalling $1,767.4 million.

On November 11, 2004, we announced that we would launch an exchange offer for any and all of the outstanding shares of Wireless owned by the public with consideration being 1.75 of our Class B Non-Voting shares for each share of Wireless. For accounting purposes, the value of the consideration was calculated as the average price of our Class B Non-Voting shares over a period of two days before and after the November 11, 2004 announcement date of the exchange offer. At December 31, 2004, we completed the acquisition of all of the publicly-held shares of Wireless in exchange for 28,072,856 of our Class B Non-voting shares for consideration valued at $811.9 million. As a result, at December 31, 2004, we owned 100% of Wireless.

On December 31, 2004, we issued stock options to purchase our Class B Non-Voting shares in exchange for both vested and unvested stock options to purchase shares of Wireless using the same conversion ratio of 1.75. The fair value of the vested options totalled approximately $49.8 million and was included as part of the purchase price. The fair value of the unvested options issued of approximately $23.4 million will be treated as deferred compensation expense. The fair values of the options were calculated using the Black-Scholes model.

Including direct incremental acquisition costs of approximately $11.3 million, the aggregate purchase price for the acquisitions of the Wireless shares and options totalled $2,640.3 million.

Microcell Purchase Accounting

As discussed in the section above titled “Acquisition of Microcell”, we acquired Microcell and began consolidating their results with ours effective November 9, 2004.

Including direct incremental acquisition costs incurred of approximately $14.9 million, the purchase price totalled $1,318.4 million, including Warrants of $51.7 million to be acquired in 2005.

Prior to completion of the acquisition, a plan was developed to restructure and integrate the operations of Microcell. As a result of the restructuring and integration, severance and other employee related costs, as well as costs to consolidate facilities, systems and operations, close cell sites and buyout certain contracts, totalling approximately $129 million are reflected as liabilities assumed on acquisition in the allocation of the purchase price. Restructuring and integration of the operations of Microcell will continue through 2005 and are expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2005.

The estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for each of these acquisitions are as follows:

Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This document includes forward-looking statements concerning the future performance of our business, its operations and its financial performance and condition. These forward-looking statements include, among others, statements with respect to our objectives, and strategies to achieve those objectives, as well as statements with respect to our beliefs, plans, expectations, anticipations, estimates or intentions. When used in this document, the words “believe”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “estimate”, “expect”, “project” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such words. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations. We caution that all forward-looking information is inherently uncertain and actual results may differ materially from the assumptions, estimates or expectations reflected or contained in the forward-looking information, and that actual future performance will be affected by a number of factors, including economic conditions, technological change, our effectiveness in integrating the Microcell acquisition, our success in deploying and operating our cable telephony product, regulatory change and competitive factors, many of which are beyond our control. Therefore, future events and results may vary significantly from what we currently foresee. We are under no obligation (and we expressly disclaim any such obligation) to update or alter the forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. For a more detailed discussion of factors that may affect actual results, see the Risks and Uncertainties discussions in our 2003 Annual MD&A, in our 2004 interim financial reports, and in our other recent securities filings.
