ABSOLUTE SOFTWARE CORPORATION Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Tabular amounts in thousands of United States dollars, except per share amount and number of shares)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Absolute Software Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated under the predecessor statue of the British Columbia Business Corporation Act on November 24, 1993. The Company’s principal business activity is the development, marketing, and provision of software services that support the management and security of computing devices, applications, data, and networks for a variety of organizations in various global territories.

On July 1, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of NetMotion Software, Inc. (“NetMotion”).

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of presentation

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). In addition to accounting policies described in notes 2(b) to 2(f) associated with the acquisition of NetMotion, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on a basis consistent with the accounting policies disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries; however, they do not include all disclosures normally provided in annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended June 30, 2021. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year.

(b) Foreign currency translation

The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (“U.S. dollars”), which is the functional currency of the Company. The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiaries are U.S. dollars except for the following subsidiaries which have functional currency in the local currency:

Subsidiary Functional currency
NetMotion Wireless UK Software, Inc. Pound sterling
NetMotion Wireless GmbH Euro
NetMotion Software Canada, Inc. Canadian dollar

Adjustments resulting from the translation of foreign functional currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

(c) Revenue recognition

Software licenses

Software licenses are sold either as on-premises perpetual or term-based subscription license agreements. Perpetual and term-based subscription license arrangements provide customers with the same functionality of software and differ mainly in the duration over which the customer benefits from the software. Software licenses are delivered electronically. Electronic delivery occurs when the Company provides the customer with access to the software and a license key. Software license revenue is recognized at a point in time when electronic delivery of the software is made available to the customer.

ABSOLUTE SOFTWARE CORPORATION Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Tabular amounts in thousands of United States dollars, except per share amount and number of shares)

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Substantially all of the Company’s software licenses are sold in arrangements that include multiple performance obligations that include maintenance, and may include training services, which are determined to be distinct performance obligations. The transaction price of a contract is determined based upon the amount the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring the promised goods and services to the customer. The Company allocates the transaction price of the contract to each distinct performance obligation of a contract based on the standalone selling price (“SSP”) of each distinct performance obligation.

Judgment is required to determine the SSP for each distinct performance obligation. For maintenance and professional services sold with perpetual software licenses, SSPs are generally observable using standalone sales and/or renewals. For perpetual software licenses, the Company applies the residual method in determining revenue to be allocated to the software license, as perpetual software licenses are never sold separately on a standalone basis and the selling price is highly variable. The SSP of software licenses are estimated using the residual approach calculated by subtracting the sum of the SSPs of all other goods and services promised under the contract from the total transaction price. Termbased subscription licenses generally do not have directly observable inputs for determining SSP as the software license and maintenance are sold together in such arrangements. Therefore, the Company estimates SSP by using other observable inputs when available, such as historical customer information.

Maintenance

The Company’s contracts with customers for software licenses include maintenance service agreements. Maintenance service agreements consist of fees for providing unspecified software updates and technical support on a when-and-if available basis for software products over the contract term. Software updates and technical support each have the same pattern of transfer to the customer, and are considered a single distinct performance obligation. Maintenance service revenues are recognized ratably as the maintenance services are provided over the term of the contract.

(d) Financial instruments

Long-term debt is initially recognized at fair value, less transaction costs. Subsequent to initial measurement, long-term debt is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

(e) Intangible assets

Acquired intangible assets are recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset’s carrying value may not be recoverable.

(f) Business combination

Business combinations are accounted for under the acquisition method. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured at fair value at the date of acquisition. Excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill. Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred.

ABSOLUTE SOFTWARE CORPORATION Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Tabular amounts in thousands of United States dollars, except per share amount and number of shares)

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(g) Significant accounting judgments

The critical judgments that the Company’s management has made in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies, apart from those involving estimations (Note 2(h)), that has the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, are related to:

  • i) the determination of the functional currency for the Company and its subsidiaries;

  • ii) the determination of the ranges of the Standalone Selling Prices of its subscription and support revenues; and

  • iii) the determination of the Standalone Selling Price of its professional services revenues.

(h) Key sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates. The consolidated financial statements include estimates which, by their nature, are uncertain.

The impacts of such estimates are pervasive throughout the consolidated financial statements, and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and the revision affects both current and future periods.

Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made at the date of the statement of financial position, that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, in the event that actual results differ from assumptions made, include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • the assessment of the Company’s incremental borrowing rate related to the recognition of lease liabilities;

  • the assessment of renewal and termination options related to the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities;

  • the inputs used in accounting for share-based compensation in the statement of operations and comprehensive income;

  • the recognition and recoverability of the Company’s deferred tax assets; and

  • the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed from business combination

(i) Adoption of Accounting Standards

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2 Amendments

In August 2020, the IASB issued Interest Rate Benchmark Reform – Phase 2, Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4, and IFRS 16. The amendments complement the Phase 1 amendments published in September 2019 and focus on the effect on financial statements when an existing interest rate benchmark is replaced with an alternative benchmark rate. These amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021, with earlier application permitted. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, these amendments did not have any impact on the Company’s financial statements.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Recent accounting pronouncements

Amendments to IAS 1: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current

On January 23, 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. The amendment clarifies the requirements relating to determining if a liability should be presented as current or non-current in the statement of financial position. Under the new requirement, the assessment of whether a liability is presented as current or non-current is based on the contractual arrangements in place as at the reporting date and does not impact the amount or timing of recognition. The amendment applies retrospectively for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of these amendments on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Other pronouncements issued but not yet effective

Certain other pronouncements have been issued by the IASB that are issued but not yet effective. There are currently no such pronouncements that are expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

(j) Immaterial correction of prior period amounts

Share-based compensation expense was previously presented as a separate line item in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, the Company includes share-based compensation expense under the respective caption in its financial statements where compensation paid to the employees is recorded. Amounts in the comparative period were corrected to conform to the current period presentation of expenses by function as follows:

ABSOLUTE SOFTWARE CORPORATION Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Tabular amounts in thousands of United States dollars, except per share amount and number of shares)

3. ACQUISITION OF NETMOTION (Continued)

As part of the acquisition, the Company recorded $235,302,000 of goodwill resulting from expected synergies and contributions to the Company’s strategic position. The acquired goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. The preliminary fair values of net assets acquired are based on information available as of the reporting date and management’s best estimates and assumptions, and may change during the measurement period as additional information is obtained.

Long-term debt 266,693
Less: current portion (1,655)
$ 265,038 $ —

On July 1, 2021, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Benefit Street Partners LLC (the “Credit Agreement”) and its affiliates pursuant to which the Company obtained a $275 million secured term loan, maturing on July 1, 2027 (the “Term Loan Facility”). The initial $275.0 million borrowing under the Term Loan Facility was subject to certain deductions agreed to with the lenders in respect of fees, issue discounts and other costs and expenses associated with entry thereto.

The initial borrowing under the Term Loan Facility bears interest at LIBOR multiplied by the statutory reserve rate established by the Federal Reserve System of the United States, subject to a floor of 0.75% (the “Adjusted Eurodollar Rate”), plus a variable margin rate which ranges from 5.5% to 6% of the outstanding principal amount of the applicable borrowings based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. Upon discontinuation of LIBOR, the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate will be determined based on an alternate benchmark rate.

The Company has the option to convert the loans bearing interest at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate to loans bearing interest at a fluctuating base rate plus a variable margin rate which ranges from 4.5% to 5% of the outstanding principal amount of the applicable borrowings based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. Quarterly installment repayments to the lenders in the amount of 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the initial borrowing (subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement) commenced on September 30, 2021, and amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility are also subject to certain other mandatory repayment requirements set out in the Credit Agreement.

The debt was initially measured at fair value of $269,500,000, less transaction costs of $1,957,000.

The Company made principal repayments of $687,500 and $1,375,000 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021 respectively.

2024 2,750
2025 2,750
2026 2,750
Thereafter 261,250
$ 273,625

The Term Loan Facility includes standard and customary finance terms and conditions with respect to, among others, fees, representations, warranties, and covenants, including certain reporting requirements, which, if not met, could result in an event of default. The Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a minimum total net leverage ratio which ranges from 8.00:1.00 (for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2021) to 3.75:1.00 (for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2024 and thereafter) and is tested quarterly.

The Term Loan Facility is subject to standard and customary negative covenants, including, among others, restrictions on indebtedness, certain acquisitions, and payments such as (but not limited to) dividends and distributions with respect to the Common Shares, and payments on account of the purchase, redemption, retirement or other acquisition of any of Absolute’s equity interests, subject to various exemptions, including but not limited to:

  • the payment of an annual dividend to shareholders in an aggregate amount not to exceed $15,000,000 in any fiscal year, subject to pro forma compliance with the financial covenant and certain other events of default (if Absolute receives at least $25,000,000 net cash proceeds from the issuance of shares in any fiscal year, then the annual dividend is increased by an amount equal to CAD$0.32 per share of such additional issued Common Share);

  • certain permitted acquisitions, which are limited to, among other things, non-hostile acquisitions that do not exceed the cap on the aggregate consideration to be allocated to non-loan parties so long as Absolute is in pro forma compliance; and

  • certain permitted indebtedness not exceeding specified percentages of EBITDA, which includes, among other things, capital lease obligations and indebtedness secured by purchase money liens, indebtedness in connection with a permitted acquisition and a general basket.

As at December 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with the financial and operating covenants under the Term Loan Facility.

(c) Stock Options, PSUs, and RSUs

The Company’s share-based compensation plans include the 2000 Share Option Plan (the “Option Plan”), the PRSU Plan and the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (adopted on December 14, 2021, replacing the 2000 Share Option Plan and PRSU Plan).

2000 Share Option Plan

In 2001, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2000 Share Option Plan (“Option Plan”) (as amended in 2007, 2009, 2015 and 2018). Under the Option Plan, the maximum number of common shares reserved for issuance is limited to 12% of the number of common shares outstanding, less the amount that are issuable under the PRSU Plan and the ESOP (note 10(e)). From and after December 14, 2021, no new grants can be made under the Option Plan.

Terms and conditions of options granted under the Option Plan are determined solely by the Board of Directors. Under the Option Plan, the exercise price of each option equals the last closing market price of the Company’s common shares before the grant date. The term of option grants may not exceed 7 years from the date of grant of the option. Options are generally granted with a four year vesting period (25% vesting on each anniversary date).

PRSU Plan

In 2015, the Company’s shareholders approved the PRSU Plan (as amended in 2018), which provides for grants of Performance Share Units (“PSUs”) and Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”). Under the PRSU Plan, the maximum number of common shares reserved for issuance is limited to 12% of the number of common shares outstanding, less the amount that are issuable under the Option Plan and the ESOP (note 10(e)). From and after December 14, 2021, no new grants can be made under the PRSU Plan.

Terms and conditions of PSUs and RSUs granted are determined by the Board of Directors in accordance with the PRSU Plan terms.

Under the PRSU Plan, PSUs are issued to eligible persons and typically vest after a three-year period (100% cliff vesting on the third anniversary date). The number of PSUs that ultimately vest is based on an Adjustment Factor, as determined by the Board of Directors at the date of grant, and can range from

10. SHARE CAPITAL AND EQUITY RESERVE (Continued)

0% to 200% of the number of units initially granted. The expiry date of the PSU grants is typically December 31 of the year in which the tranche vests.

RSUs are issued to eligible persons and typically vest over a three year period (33.3% vesting on each grant anniversary date). The expiry date of the RSU grants is generally December 31 of the year in which the tranche vests.

Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan

On December 14, 2021, the Company’s shareholders approved the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, which provides for grants of stock options, RSUs, and PSUs to the Company’s officers, directors, employees and other specified service providers. The Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan became effective on December 14, 2021, upon which no new awards will be granted under the Company’s Option Plan and PRSU Plan. Awards granted under the Option Plan and PRSU Plan prior to December 14, 2021, will remain outstanding under such plans in accordance with their terms and conditions.

Under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, the maximum number of common shares reserved for issuance is limited to 8.8% of the aggregate number of issued and outstanding common shares, less amounts that are issuable under the Option Plan, PRSU Plan and the ESOP (note 10(e)). At December 31, 2021, the maximum number of common shares available for grant under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan was nil.

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2021, no grants were made under the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan.

During the six months ended December 31, 2021, the Adjustment Factor related to the PSUs granted was related to the achievement of Company-specific performance targets. The fair value of PSUs with market-based performance conditions are estimated on the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model, taking into account the fair value of the Company’s common shares on the date of grant, potential future dividends accruing to the PSU holder’s benefit, and encompassing a wide range of possible future Company performance conditions. The fair value of PSUs with non-market performance conditions is determined based on the fair value of the Company’s common shares on the date of grant and potential future dividends accruing to the PSU holder’s benefit.

The Company’s share-based compensation plans also include a Deferred Share Unit (“DSU”) Plan. The DSU Plan is a cash-settled share based compensation plan.

The DSU Plan was adopted in 2016. Terms and conditions of DSUs granted are determined by the Board of Directors. Under the DSU Plan, DSUs are issued to eligible persons and generally vest over a one year period (25% per three months). DSUs are not eligible for redemption until the unitholder ceases to be an eligible person. The term of the DSU grants is coterminous with the date the unitholder ceases to be an eligible person.

(e) Employee Share Ownership Plan

In December 2019, the Company’s shareholders approved the Employee Share Ownership Plan (the “ESOP”). Previously the Company had the Employee Share Ownership Plan (the “Prior ESOP”), which was adopted in 2004.

The terms of the ESOP allow employees to purchase up to 350,000 common shares from treasury at a 15% discount from the market price. Each employee can allocate an annual maximum of CAD $15,000 per year to the purchase of common shares through two, six month offering periods per year. The ESOP became effective January 1, 2020, and on that date, the Prior ESOP lapsed.

At December 31, 2021, the Company had total deferred tax assets of $33,279,000 (June 30, 2021 – $31,339,000) primarily related to deferred revenue balances; current income tax receivable of $1,173,000 (June 30, 2021 – $628,000) primarily related to tax instalments paid, and current income tax payable of $203,000 (June 30, 2021 – $20,000) in other foreign jurisdictions. At December 31, 2021, the Company had total deferred tax liability of $22,656,000 (June 30, 2021 – $nil) primarily related to deferred tax liability assumed from the acquisition of NetMotion. In the three and six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company’s current income tax payable is partially offset by estimated investment tax credit (“ITC”) receivable balances. The ITCs were credited against research and development expenses, as the credit is generated by certain eligible scientific research and development expenditures (“SRED”) in Canada.

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible and during the loss carry-forward periods. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable could change materially in the near term based on future taxable income during the carry-forward period.

The Company’s operations are conducted in a number of countries with complex tax legislation and regulations pertaining to the Company’s activities. Any reassessment of the Company’s tax filings by the tax authorities could result in material adjustments to net income or loss, deferred tax assets and operating loss carry-forwards.

As at December 31, 2021, the aggregate notional amount of foreign exchange forward contracts was $12,367,000, of which notional amount of $11,656,000 was designated as cash flow hedges. The maturity dates of these instruments range from January 2022 to June 2022. As at December 31, 2021, the net unrealized loss on forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges was $159,000 (June 30, 2021 – net unrealized gain of $257,000). As at December 31, 2021, the Company estimates that 100% of net unrealized gains/losses on these forward contracts will be reclassified into income (loss) within the next twelve months.
