NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(All amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, except per share amounts or as otherwise stated)
1 INCORPORATION AND OPERATIONS
Badger Infrastructure Solutions Ltd. and its subsidiaries (together "Badger" or the "Company") provide non-destructive excavating services to utilities, industrial, construction, transportation and other industries in Canada and the United States ("U.S."). Badger is a publicly traded company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX: BDGI). The head office of Badger is located at Suite 3100, 525-8th Avenue SW, Calgary, Alberta T2P 1G1. The registered office of Badger is located at c/o CAS Corporate Governance Services Inc., 600, 815-8th Avenue SW, Calgary, Alberta T2P 3P2.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 were authorized for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors ("Board") on November 5, 2025.
2 BASIS OF PREPARATION
Statement of compliance
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB®") and in accordance with Internation Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 – Interim Financial Reporting and accordingly, do not include all the disclosures included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements.
Basis of measurement
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for share-based compensation transactions and financial derivatives measured at fair market value. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value consideration given in exchange for goods and services at the time of the transaction.
Functional and presentation currency
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars. The functional currency of the Canadian operations is in Canadian dollars and the U.S. operations functional currency is in U.S. dollars.
Segment reporting
During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, the Company revised its internal reporting structure to better align with its strategic priorities. Effective January 31, 2025, the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") changed the way he makes decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. For internal management reporting, the CODM now reviews financial results based on consolidated results, driving a change in the Company's operating segments. As a result of this change, the Company concluded that it has one reportable segment, being Consolidated Badger, combining the previously reported U.S., Canada and Corporate segments together. As a result of our reporting changes, prior periods have been restated for comparative purposes.
3 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
The preparation of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS® Accounting Standards requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues, expenses, gains and losses during the reporting period. These judgements, estimates and assumptions are the same as those set out in the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.
BADGER INFRASTRUCTURE SOLUTIONS LTD. Q3 2025
Estimates and judgements are continuously evaluated and are based on management's experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
4 STANDARDS ADOPTED AND RECENTLY ANNOUNCED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Future Accounting Pronouncements
During 2024, the Canadian Accounting Standards Board endorsed IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which was issued by the IASB in April 2024. IFRS 18 introduces: i) defined categories for income and expenses and certain defined subtotals in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, including operating profit, ii) required disclosures of certain management defined performance measures, and iii) aggregation and disaggregation principles for the grouping of information in the consolidated financial statements. IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027. The standard requires retrospective application with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting IFRS 18 on the consolidated financial statements.
5 SEASONALITY OF OPERATIONS
The Company's revenues are typically highest in the second, third and fourth quarters resulting from the seasonal upswing in construction activity, the impact of which typically results in higher activity levels. Construction activity in the majority of Canada and certain regions of the U.S. is typically lower in the first quarter as a result of winter weather conditions. As the Company continues to grow its U.S. customer base, the impact of seasonality may shift over time. The Company's net working capital requirements will typically follow the seasonality of the related sales activity.
6 TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES
| September 30, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Trade receivables | 199,422 | 163,875 |

| Accrued revenue and other receivables | 8,093 | 5,021 |
| Trade and other receivables | 204,037 | 166,086 |
Trade receivables include $15.1 million (December 31, 2024 - $23.8 million) of trade accounts receivables being serviced under a receivables purchase agreement. The Company retains substantially all of the risks and rewards relating to the receivables sold, and therefore, continues to recognize the transferred accounts receivables in their entirety. The amounts repayable under the receivables purchase agreement are recorded as accounts payable.
Holdback receivables are amounts customers withhold paying until the completion of the contract. These amounts are agreed in advance and typically have collection terms beyond the Company's general payment terms.
Accrued revenue represents revenue for services which have been completed and for which an invoice has not yet been rendered. All such recorded amounts are considered collectable.

Throughout 2025, and as at September 30, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants required to be complied with under the terms of the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility is collateralized by a general security interest over the Company's and certain of its subsidiaries' assets, property and undertaking, present and future.

The Company has the ability to exercise the accordion feature under its Revolving Credit Facility to add an additional $150.0 million in borrowing capacity.
Non-revolving term loan facility
On December 12, 2024, Badger entered into a $100.0 million syndicated, secured, non-revolving term loan facility (the "Term Loan"), the proceeds of which were used to pay down the Credit Facility. During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Term Loan was extended for an additional year and now matures on December 11, 2028. The Term Loan is non-amortizing and bears interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate.

A) Deferred Share Unit Plan

The Board participates in the plan whereby they receive up to 100% of their annual retainer in the form of DSUs. Pursuant to the terms of the DSU, participants are granted deferred units with a value equivalent to the value of a Badger share. The deferred units granted earn additional deferred units at the same rate as dividends on Badger common shares. DSUs are paid out in cash upon departure from the Company.
The DSU Plan is accounted for as a cash-settled plan and units vest immediately upon issuance. Compensation expense is based on the estimated fair value of the deferred units outstanding at the end of each quarter using the period closing share price, with a corresponding credit to liabilities.
The liability for DSU's vested and outstanding as at September 30, 2025 is $16.4 million (December 31, 2024 - $9.6 million). Changes in the number of deferred units under the DSU Plan were as follows:
