Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 (unaudited).

1. Reporting Entity:

Computer Modelling Group Ltd. ("CMG") is a company domiciled in Alberta, Canada and is incorporated pursuant to the Alberta Business Corporations Act, with its common shares listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol "CMG". The address of CMG's registered office is 3710 33 Street N.W., Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2L 2M1. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at and for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 comprise CMG and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Company"). The Company is a computer software technology company engaged in the development and licensing of reservoir simulation software. The Company also provides professional services consisting of highly specialized support, consulting, training, and contract research activities.

2. Basis of Preparation:

(a) Statement of Compliance:

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 Interim Financial Reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's most recent annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at and for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on February 8, 2021.

(b) Basis of Measurement:

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, which is based on the fair value of the consideration at the time of the transaction.

(c) Functional and Presentation Currency:

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the Company's functional currency. All financial information presented in Canadian dollars has been rounded to the nearest thousand.

(d) Use of Estimates, Judgments and Assumptions:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies, the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue, costs and expenses. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from such estimates and it is possible that the differences could be material. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

Significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2020.

(e) Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic:

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus outbreak ("COVID-19") a pandemic. Responses to the spread of COVID-19 resulted in a partial shutdown of the global economy leading to significant disruption to business

operations and a significant increase in economic uncertainty with volatile commodity prices and currency exchange rates. In addition, the decrease in demand for crude oil has resulted in a significant decline in global energy prices.

While market conditions improved during the nine months ended December 31, 2020 as countries began easing lockdown restrictions, a challenging economic climate persists, and it is difficult to reliably estimate the length or severity of the pandemic and its financial impact. A potential adverse impact to the Company includes reductions in revenues and cash flows and increased risk of non-payment from customers. At December 31, 2020, there has not been a significant increase in credit risk related to the Company's accounts receivable arising from COVID-19. As such, no allowance for doubtful accounts has been established at December 31, 2020 (none at March 31, 2020).

Estimates made during this period of extreme volatility are subject to a higher level of uncertainty and as a result, there may be a further prospective impact in future periods.

3. Significant Accounting Policies:

Except as described below, the accounting policies applied in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the Company's consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020.

Government Grants

Government grants are recognized when the Company has reasonable assurance that it has complied with the relevant conditions of the grant and that it will be received. The Company recognizes the grant against the financial statement line item that it is intended to compensate (note 8).

4. Segmented Information:

The Company is organized into one operating segment represented by the development and licensing of reservoir simulation software. The Company provides professional services, consisting of support, training, consulting and contract research activities, to promote the use and development of its software; however, these activities are not evaluated as a separate business segment.

Property, equipment and right-of-use assets of the Company are located in the following geographic regions (for revenue by geographic region, refer to note 7):

6. Lease Liability:

The Company's leases are for office space, the most significant of which is the twenty-year head office lease that commenced in 2017.

8. Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy and Canada Emergency Rent Subsidy

As a result of the decline in revenue, CMG became eligible for the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy ("CEWS") and the Canada Emergency Rent Subsidy ("CERS") programs and during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 recorded a CEWS benefit of $1.6 million and $4.1 million, respectively, and a CERS benefit of $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The CEWS and CERS benefits were recorded against the financial statement line items that they are intended to compensate, resulting in the following credits to the operating expense categories:

Deferred tax recoveryForeign withholding and other taxes (554)361 (348)109
5,278 6,421

During the nine months ended December 31, 2020, the blended statutory tax rate was 23.5% (2019 – 26%). In May 2019, the Alberta government announced that the provincial corporate income tax rate will be reduced from 12% to 8% over a four-year period. Accordingly, the rate was reduced from 12% to 11% effective July 1, 2019 and from 11% to 10% on January 1, 2020. In October 2020, the previously scheduled tax rate reduction was accelerated, with the tax rate reduced to 8% effective July 1, 2020.

The provision for income and other taxes reported differs from the amount computed by applying the combined Canadian Federal and Provincial statutory rate to the profit before income and other taxes. The reasons for this difference and the related tax effects are as follows:

Nine months ended December 31, 2020 2019
(thousands of $, unless otherwise stated)
Combined statutory tax rate 23.50% 26.00%

The components of the Company's deferred tax asset are as follows:

(thousands of $) December 31, 2020 March 31, 2020
SR&ED investment tax credits (127) (274)
Property and equipment 101 50
Right-of-use assets 1,184 999
Stock-based compensation liability 388 217
Net deferred tax asset 1,546 992

All movement in deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized through net income of the respective period.

Prepaid income taxes and current income taxes payable have not been offset as the amounts relate to income taxes levied by different tax authorities on different taxable entities.

Total stock-based compensation liability 1,687 943

(1) The intrinsic value of the vested awards at December 31, 2020 was $0.4 million.

The Company has several stock-based compensation plans, including a stock option plan, a share appreciation rights plan, a performance share unit and restricted share unit plan, and a deferred share unit plan.

The maximum number of common shares reserved for issuance under the Company's security-based compensation plans is limited to 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares. Based on this calculation, at December 31, 2020, the Company may reserve up to 8,028,000 common shares for issuance under its security-based compensation plans.

(i) Stock Option Plan

The Company adopted a rolling stock option plan as of July 13, 2005, which was reaffirmed by the Company's shareholders on July 16, 2020. Pursuant to the stock option plan, the maximum term of an option granted cannot exceed five years from the date of grant. Fifty percent of stock options vest on the first year anniversary from the grant date and then 25% vest on each of the second and third year anniversary dates. Stock options have a five-year life.

Dividend yield per common share (%) 3.71 4.71 to 6.28

(ii) Share Appreciation Rights Plan

The Company adopted a share appreciation rights plan ("SAR Plan") in November 2015. A share appreciation right ("SAR") entitles the holder to receive a cash payment equal to the difference between the stated exercise price and the market price of the Company's common shares on the date the SAR is exercised. SARs are granted to executive officers and employees residing and working outside of Canada. Fifty percent of SARs vest on the first year anniversary from the grant date and then 25% vest on each of the second and third year anniversary dates. SARs have a five-year life.

(iii) Share Unit Plans

Performance Share Units (PSUs) and Restricted Share Units (RSUs)

The Performance Share Unit and Restricted Share Unit Plan ("PSU & RSU Plan") is open to all employees and contractors of the Company. PSUs cliff-vest at the end of three years, with the vesting multiplier ranging from 0.0 to 2.0 contingent upon achieving certain corporate performance criteria. RSUs vest annually over a three-year period. Upon vesting, PSUs and RSUs can be exchanged for common shares of the Company or surrendered for cash at the option of the holder. As such, the Company accounts for PSUs and RSUs as cash-settled awards and recognizes a liability for potential cash settlements.

The International Employees PSU & RSU Plan includes substantially the same terms, conditions and PSU performance criteria as the PSU & RSU Plan, with the main two exceptions being that (i) it is available only to employees and contractors residing and working outside of Canada and (ii) PSUs and RSUs under this plan can be redeemed for cash only. As such, the Company accounts for PSUs and RSUs issued under the International Employees PSU & RSU Plan as cash-settled awards and recognizes a liability for potential cash settlements.

Deferred Share Units (DSUs)

The DSU Plan was adopted in May 2017 and is limited to non-employee members of the Board of Directors. DSUs vest immediately, but are redeemable for cash only after a director ceases Board membership.
