loan facility obtained for the purpose of funding the TSS acquisition. In accordance with IFRS, 100% of the financial results for TSS are included in the consolidated financial results of the Company. Prior to January 5, 2021, each of the Minority Owners had the right, at any time, to exercise a put option to sell all or a portion of their interests in the Coop back to CSI for an amount calculated in accordance with a valuation methodology described within the Members Agreement. Accordingly, the Company classified the proceeds from the Members Agreement as a liability. The main valuation driver in such calculation is the maintenance and other recurring revenue of the Coop. Upon the exercise of a put option, Constellation would have been obligated to redeem up to 33.33% of the Minority Owners’ interests that were subject to the put, no later than 30 business days from the date the notice was received (classified as a current liability), and up to 33.33% on each of the first and second anniversaries of the date the first redemption payment was made. Commencing at any time after December 31, 2023, CSI was entitled to exercise a call option to purchase all of the Minority Owners’ interests in the Coop, for an amount calculated in accordance with a valuation methodology described within the Members Agreement. Upon exercise of the call option, the full purchase price would have been paid within 30 business days of the notice date, following which the Minority Owners’ membership in the Coop would be terminated. There was a valuation premium if the call option was exercised versus the put option.
On January 4, 2021 (in anticipation of the acquisition of Topicus.com B.V. (“Topicus B.V.”) described further below), the Company's subsidiary, the Coop, which principally held the TSS Operating Group, completed a corporate reorganization. In conjunction with the reorganization, the following steps were completed:
-
The Coop changed its name to Topicus.com Coöperatief U.A. (“Topicus Coop”).
-
The Company exchanged its existing equity interest in Topicus Coop for an equity interest in Topicus.com Inc. and Topicus.com Inc. became the new parent company of Topicus Coop. The Company received 39,412,385 preferred shares and 39,412,385 subordinate voting shares of Topicus.com Inc. The preferred shares were convertible into subordinate voting shares of Topicus.com Inc. at a rate of 1:1.
-
Topicus.com Inc. had 39,412,385 subordinate voting shares outstanding on January 4, 2021. The Company distributed 39,412,367 of the subordinate voting shares to its common shareholders pursuant to the dividend-in-kind and continued to hold 18 subordinate voting shares.
-
The Company holds 1 super voting share of Topicus.com Inc. The super voting share entitles the holder to that number of votes that equals 50.1% of the aggregate number of votes attached to all the outstanding super voting shares and subordinate voting shares of Topicus.com Inc. As a result, the Company controls Topicus.com Inc. and will consolidate its financial position and results of operations with Topicus.com Inc. The Company reflects a non-controlling interest held by other parties.
On May 20, 2020, the Company entered into a binding agreement, subject to certain closing conditions, with IJssel B.V. (the “Seller”) to purchase 100% of the shares of Topicus B.V., a Netherlands-based diversified vertical market software provider. On January 5, 2021, the Company completed this transaction. Annual gross revenues of Topicus B.V. for 2019 were approximately €101 million and total tangible assets at December 31, 2019 were approximately €7 million. In connection with the acquisition the Company paid cash of €133.6 million. Furthermore, Topicus Coop issued 5,842,882 preferred units of Topicus Coop to the Seller for an initial subscription price of €83.8 million plus an additional subscription amount of €27.6 million which will be owed by the Seller to Topicus Coop and payable to Topicus Coop under certain conditions. Topicus Coop also issued 5,842,882 ordinary units of Topicus Coop to the Seller. The aggregate estimated total consideration was €217.4 million. Under certain conditions, the preferred units were retractable at
13
the option of the holder for a retraction price of approximately €19.06 per unit and were classified as a liability on the balance sheet of Topicus.com Inc. and the Company. The preferred units were also convertible into ordinary units of Topicus Coop at a conversion ratio of 1:1 and the ordinary units are exchangeable for Topicus.com Inc. subordinate voting shares at a conversion ratio of 1:1. The preferred unit holders were also entitled to a fixed annual cumulative dividend of 5% per annum. On February 1, 2022, the preferred units were converted to ordinary units of Topicus Coop.
On January 5, 2021, the parties to the Members Agreement agreed to terminate such Members Agreement, and it was replaced by an Investor Rights and Governance Agreement (“IRGA”).
The IRGA contains special provisions between the Company and the Minority Owners, including put options and call options applicable to units of Topicus Coop that are held by the Minority Owners as of January 5, 2021 (and any units or shares into which such units or shares have been converted or exchanged). The Minority Owners include Joday Investments VI B.V. (“Joday”), an entity controlled by Robin van Poelje (the CEO and Chairman of the board of directors of Topicus.com Inc.) and Tjitske Strikwerda. Commencing any time after January 5, 2021, each of the Minority Owners may (i) exercise a put option to sell all or a portion of their interests in Topicus Coop, (ii) in the event of a change of control of the Company, sell all or a portion of their interests in Topicus Coop, and (iii) in the event the Company reduces its economic interest in Topicus.com Inc., sell the corresponding amount of their interests in Topicus Coop, in each case, to the Company for an amount calculated in accordance with a valuation methodology described in the IRGA. At any time after December 31, 2023, CSI has the right, at its option, to buy all of the Topicus Coop units and Topicus shares held by certain members of the Joday Group (excluding Joday) at a cash price per Topicus Coop unit determined in accordance with the IRGA. After December 31, 2043, CSI has the same right to buy all of the Topicus Coop units held by the remaining members of the Joday Group, including Joday. Similar to the Members Agreement, the main valuation driver in such calculation is the maintenance and other recurring revenue of Topicus Coop. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the IRGA, which is available at www.sedarplus.com on Topicus.com Inc.'s issuer profile.
In 2024, the Company exercised its call right to buy some of the Topicus Coop units held by certain members of the Joday Group (excluding Joday), since these members are either (a) no longer directly or indirectly involved in or contributing to the activities of Topicus Coop, or (b) no longer involved as manager of Topicus Coop, but solely in a supervisory role at a subsidiary level. The Company now holds 188,953 Topicus Coop units and 40,406,513 Topicus.com Inc. subordinate voting shares.
Lumine Group Inc.:
On February 22 and 23, 2023 (as part of a series of transactions relating to the acquisition of WideOrbit Inc. (“WideOrbit”) described further below), the Company’s subsidiary, Lumine Group Inc. (“Lumine”), completed a corporate reorganization. After the reorganization was completed, the Company owned 1 super voting share, 6 subordinate voting shares and 63,582,712 preferred shares of Lumine. Furthermore, the Company distributed 63,582,706 of the subordinate voting shares to its common shareholders pursuant to a dividend-in-kind on February 23, 2023. The steps performed in conjunction with the reorganization consisted of the following:
-
The Company exchanged its existing common shares and preferred shares in Lumine Group (Holdings) Inc. (“Lumine Group Holdings”) for 63,582,712 subordinate voting shares and 55,233,745 preferred shares of Lumine on February 22, 2023.
-
Lumine and Lumine Group Holdings amalgamated on February 22, 2023.
-
The Company subscribed for 8,348,967 preferred shares of Lumine on February 22, 2023. The preferred shares were convertible into subordinate voting shares of Lumine at a rate of
14
1:2.43.
-
Lumine had 63,582,712 subordinate voting shares outstanding on February 22, 2023. The Company distributed 63,582,706 of the subordinate voting shares to its common shareholders pursuant to a dividend-in-kind on February 23, 2023 and continued to hold 6 subordinate voting shares of Lumine.
-
Under certain conditions, the preferred shares were retractable at the option of the holder for a retraction price of approximately $21.74 per preferred share. The holders of the preferred shares were also entitled to a fixed annual cumulative dividend of 5% per annum.
-
The Company holds 1 super voting share of Lumine. The super voting share entitles the holder to that number of votes that equals 50.1% of the aggregate number of votes attached to all the outstanding super voting shares, subordinate voting shares and special shares of Lumine. As a result, the Company controls Lumine and consolidates its financial position and results of operations with Lumine. The Company reflects a non-controlling interest held by other parties.
On February 23, 2023, the Company purchased 100% of the shares of WideOrbit, a US-based vertical market software provider. Annual gross revenues of WideOrbit for 2022 were approximately $169 million. The gross purchase price for the transaction was $490 million, subject to customary adjustments, as a result of, but not limited to, minimum cash requirements of $10 million, target net indebtedness of $86.7 million, and claims under the representations and warranties of the purchase agreement. Furthermore, Lumine issued 10,204,294 special shares of Lumine to the sellers of WideOrbit for an initial subscription price of approximately $222 million which was included in the purchase consideration. Under certain conditions, the special shares were retractable at the option of the holder for a retraction price of approximately $21.74 per special share plus one subordinate voting share of Lumine for each special share held and were classified as a liability on the balance sheet of Lumine and the Company. The special shares were also convertible into subordinate voting shares of Lumine at a conversion ratio of 1:3.43 at any time. The holders of the special shares were also entitled to a fixed annual cumulative dividend of 5% per annum. On March 25, 2024, all of the preferred shares and special shares of Lumine were converted into subordinate voting shares of Lumine, and additional subordinate voting shares were issued in satisfaction of the amounts owing in connection with the accrued dividends on the preferred shares and special shares. As of March 29, 2024, the Company holds 157,553,539 subordinate voting shares of Lumine.
On December 12, 2022, the Company, Trapeze Software ULC and Eric Mathewson and certain investors affiliated therewith (collectively, the “Majority Rollover Shareholders”) entered a shareholders agreement (the “Shareholders Agreement”). Any Sellers who were not Majority Rollover Shareholders (collectively, the “Minority Rollover Shareholders”) became parties to the Shareholders Agreement pursuant to joinders entered into in connection with the issuance of special shares described above. The Shareholders Agreement includes a number of contractual provisions which impact the exercise by the Company, Trapeze Software ULC, the Majority Rollover Shareholders, Minority Rollover Shareholders and Lumine, as applicable, of certain rights and obligations. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the Shareholders Agreement, which is available at www.sedarplus.com on Lumine Group Inc.’s issuer profile.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
Overview
We acquire, manage and build VMS businesses. Generally, these businesses provide mission critical software solutions that address the specific needs of our customers in particular vertical markets.
16
Our focus on acquiring businesses with growth potential, managing them well and then building them has allowed us to generate significant cash flow and revenue growth.
Using a combination of proprietary software and market expertise, we provide software solutions designed to enable our customers to boost productivity, operate more cost effectively, increase sales and improve customer service and satisfaction.
Many of the VMS businesses that we acquire have the potential to be leaders within their particular markets. We target the VMS sector because of the attractive economics that it provides and our belief that our management teams have a deep understanding of those economics.
Business Strategy
Given our extensive acquisition experience and successful track record, we believe that we are well positioned to identify, acquire, manage and build attractive VMS businesses in new markets. We seek acquisitions that provide software solutions to either the public or private sectors.
When one of our acquired VMS businesses is being operated efficiently, we encourage their management to build their business through a combination of organic growth and acquisitions of other VMS businesses in the same vertical market. We often enter new vertical markets through acquisitions of VMS businesses in markets in which we do not currently operate.
We believe that we will continue to expand our existing businesses through organic growth initiatives aimed at increasing our market share and product breadth. We will also continue to identify and complete acquisitions in our existing vertical markets. Our decentralized VMS management teams have extensive knowledge of their markets and deep customer relationships. This enables them to successfully identify, pursue, structure, acquire and then coach businesses post-acquisition.
We also seek to acquire attractive VMS businesses in new markets to deploy our free cash flow at attractive returns. Historically, we have retained the majority of the managers from the businesses that we have acquired, which has allowed us to retain the knowledge needed to manage and successfully build these businesses.
Our VMS businesses typically generate significant cash flows which we redeploy to build our existing VMS businesses and acquire new ones.
We prefer to acquire VMS businesses with the following characteristics: Growing business with a diversified customer base, high relative market share and capital constrained competitors. We sometimes acquire VMS businesses with declining revenue, concentrated customer bases, low relative market share and well-funded competitors. We do so when we believe that the correct combination of customer relationship management and market segmentation will lead to attractive returns.
Our decentralized management structure is key to our continued revenue growth. We have experienced management teams operating in each VMS business, backed by infrastructure at the operating group level and a small corporate head office. The corporate head office provides financial and strategic expertise with respect to capital allocation, acquisitions, finance, tax, and compensation policy, and attempts to identify and share best practices.
Our operating groups currently service customers in more than 150 different vertical markets worldwide. There are many VMS business units within each of our operating groups. Each VMS
17
business unit has a manager and separately tracked financial reporting. We monitor and measure each VMS business unit’s performance through operating ratios and metrics including profitability and growth. The majority of our senior managers’ incentive compensation is linked to these two performance metrics.
Each of our VMS business managers is motivated to administer their business in a highly-focused manner. They are encouraged to leverage their respective market knowledge in order to maximize the growth opportunities, profitability and return on invested capital within their business. Our corporate head office sets investment return objectives.
Our decentralized management structure allows us to have business unit management teams with strong customer relationships and deep market knowledge that are more focused and responsive than would be the case under a centralized management model. These teams provide our corporate head office and operating group managers with the ability to concentrate on issues such as capital allocation, identifying best practices, and helping recruit and coach high potential employees, while the VMS business managers concentrate on operating efficiency, and pursuing organic initiatives and acquisitions in our existing vertical markets.
We establish from time to time, what we consider to be an acceptable after-tax internal rate of return (“IRR”) as a hurdle rate for all of our new initiatives and acquisitions.
All of our operating group cash flow (excluding operating cash flows from those entities which have stand-alone debt without recourse to Constellation Software Inc.) is notionally available to our corporate head office. Capital is allocated amongst individual management teams based upon projected IRR which is influenced by the relative attractiveness of a market, the strategic position of the VMS business and the management team’s performance. Corporate head office approves all significant acquisitions. In practice, the operating group cash flow is offset against their approved investments in acquisitions and internal investment initiatives and only the remainder is returned to head office.
The objective of our compensation plan is to reward employees for working towards our corporate goal of increasing shareholder value. We believe that shareholder value is created by managing two financial components over the long term: profitability and growth. As such, our bonus plan compensates employees at many levels of our organization based upon the profitability and revenue growth of their operating group or business unit, as applicable. The long-term focus is accomplished by generally mandating that at least 25% of the incentive compensation for the majority of our senior employees who earn in excess of $75,000 per annum and have bonuses in excess of $10,000 per annum be reinvested in shares of the Company that are subject to restrictions on resale for a period of three to ten years. At a minimum, these restrictions require employees to hold 100% of their shares for the first two years following acquisition, and then one third of such shares may be sold in each of years three, four and five. Senior executives are generally required to invest 75% of their bonus in shares of the Company that are subject to the same restrictions on resale for a period of three to ten years. Once every five years, employees may elect to receive 100% of their bonus in cash. Our bonus plan encourages employees to participate through share ownership in the value that they have created.

Products
We have numerous software products that we sell, service, support and enhance. We have at least one software product in each of our vertical markets and often develop and support multiple product lines in a particular vertical market. In addition, and as a complement to our acquired and internally developed software products, we license certain technologies used in our software products from third parties, generally on a non-exclusive basis. Our products are typically designed to assist our customers in automating as many aspects of their business processes as is practical. While our strategy is to provide mission critical software solutions to all of our customers, the particular software products that we develop can vary substantially across vertical markets. For example, in the public transit market one of the mission critical aspects of the business that we help automate is the scheduling and routing of vehicles. In the private club market we focus on providing membership
26
accounting and point of sale solutions. Our goal is to continue to focus our efforts on software products specialized for specific vertical markets.
Sales and Distribution Strategy
We use direct sales forces in most of our major markets as our primary distribution channel. We believe that direct sales teams increase our visibility and market penetration, encourage long-term customer contact and facilitate sales of additional products. Our sales and marketing teams work primarily within dedicated sales groups for each of the vertical markets that we currently serve. Our sales and marketing strategy is to provide relevant business expertise directly to target customers by using sales representatives with strong industry specific knowledge. We use a combination of field sales and inside sales where appropriate. Part of our ongoing revenue growth is achieved through selling complementary products and/or services to existing customers. We also support our sales efforts with marketing that creates awareness of our products through appearances at major trade shows, advertising in trade magazines, hosting users’ group meetings, and the creation of informative websites.
Research and Development
Our product development strategy combines innovation and the introduction of new technologies, with a commitment to the long-term support of our customers’ current systems. Our research and development activities are focused on designing, developing, testing and integrating new add-on products which enhance the features and functionality of our existing software solutions. We also seek to offer streamlined upgrade and migration tools for our customers.
We rely primarily on our in-house capabilities to develop our software solutions using industry standard software development tools. However, when it is not strategic to our business and is more cost effective, we will license certain technology components from third party providers.
Intellectual Property
In accordance with industry practice, we rely on a combination of contractual provisions and patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws to protect our proprietary rights in our products. We generally license the use of our products to our customers rather than transferring title to them. These licenses contain terms and conditions prohibiting the unauthorized reproduction, disclosure, reverse engineering or transfer of our products. In addition, we attempt to protect our trade secrets and other proprietary information through agreements with suppliers, employees and consultants. All material components of our products have been developed by individuals most of whom have assigned all rights to us, except for commercially-available components.
Foreign Operations
For fiscal 2025, approximately 42% of our revenues were transacted in the United States, 9% in Canada, 35% in UK/Europe and 14% in the rest of the world. No single customer accounted for more than 2% of our total revenues in fiscal 2025. For more details, see the financial statement note entitled “Operating Segments” included in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, a copy of which is filed and is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com.
Competition
Competition for the licensing of vertical market software is generally based upon several factors
27
including product features, the availability of high-quality maintenance and support, price and the knowledge of the software vendor’s sales team. We operate in many different verticals and our competitive position varies depending on the specific vertical.
Our significant competitors include Oracle Corporation, Tyler Technologies, Inc., INFOR, Cisco Systems Inc, Nokia, Amdocs, Epic Systems Corporation, Temenos AG, Palantir Technologies, CGI Group Inc., Salesforce, Inc., Fiserv, Inc., Fidelity, DXC Technology Company, Indeed Inc., Logibec Groupe Informatique, Thomson Reuters Corporation, Microsoft Corporation, Jack Henry and Associates Inc., Sage Software Inc., Accenture plc, Experian plc, Intuit, Roper Technologies, Inc., Toast, Inc., Ericsson, Dassault Systems, OpenText Corporation, McKesson Corporation, Xerox Corporation, IBM Corporation, HP Inc., SAP AG, Hexagon AG, Intercontinental Exchange Inc., ServiceNow, Inc., SDL Trados, Wortliga GmbH and athenahealth Inc.
Employees
For fiscal 2025, we had an average of approximately 65,000 full-time employees globally. As at December 31, 2025, we had approximately 69,000 full-time employees.
Risk Factors
The Company’s business is subject to a number of risk factors, including those risk factors set forth below. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial may also impair our business and operations and cause the price of our securities to decline. The Company’s external counsel advise us that securities regulations require that we provide a list of risk factors which might influence an investor’s decision to purchase CSI’s securities. As managers and directors, we do not believe that the next several pages of risk factors will add materially to your understanding of our business, but they are in form and substance, similar to what other companies like CSI provide. They do include quite a number of possible, though not necessarily probable, reasons for future setbacks.
We cannot assure you that we will sustain profitability in the future. If we do not maintain profits our share price may decline.
As we continue to grow our business, our operating expenses and capital expenditures may increase, and as a result, we will need to generate additional revenue to maintain profitability. If our revenues decline, we may not be able to sustain profitability because many of our expenses are fixed in the short term and cannot be easily or quickly reduced. A failure to maintain profitability could materially and adversely affect our business.
We periodically review the estimated value of acquired intangibles and goodwill to determine whether any impairment exists and we could write-down a portion of our intangible assets and goodwill as part of any such future review, which occurs when impairment indicators exist or, in the case of goodwill, at least once annually. We occasionally review opportunities to reorganize operations and may record restructuring charges in connection with any such reorganization. Any write-down of intangible assets or goodwill or restructuring charges in the future could affect our results of operations materially and adversely and as a result our share price may decline.
Our quarterly revenues and operating results may fluctuate.
Factors which may cause our revenues and operating results to fluctuate include:
28
-
the demand for our software products and the market conditions for technology spending;
-
patterns of capital spending and changes in budgeting cycles by our customers;
-
the timing of acquisitions and related costs;
-
our ability to acquire or develop (independently or through strategic relationships with third parties), to introduce and to market new and enhanced versions of our software products, including emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (“AI”), on a timely basis;
-
the number, timing and significance of new software product announcements and releases by us or our competitors;
-
the level of software product and price competition;
-
the geographical mix of our sales, together with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates;
-
market acceptance of new and enhanced versions of our software products, and our success in new and evolving markets and in emerging technologies, including AI;
-
changes in personnel and related costs;
-
the amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to the expansion of our business;
-
changes in the pricing and the mix of software solutions that we sell and that our customers demand;
-
seasonal variations in our sales cycles; and
-
order cancellations and shipment delays.
In addition, we expect that a substantial portion of our revenue will continue to be derived from renewals of maintenance arrangements with our customers. These maintenance arrangements typically last from three months to 12 months, and the timing of cash collections of related revenues varies from quarter to quarter.
In addition, our new license revenue may fluctuate significantly on a quarterly and annual basis in the future, as a result of a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control. The sale of a new license generally requires a customer to make a purchase decision that involves a significant commitment of capital.
We may be unable to identify and complete suitable platform acquisitions and acquisitions in our existing vertical markets.
We cannot be certain that we will be able to identify suitable new acquisition candidates that are available for purchase at reasonable prices. Even if we are able to identify such candidates, we may be unable to consummate an acquisition on suitable terms. When evaluating an acquisition opportunity, we cannot assure you that we will correctly identify the risks and costs inherent in the business that we are acquiring. If we were to proceed with one or more significant future acquisitions in which the consideration consisted of cash, a substantial portion of our available cash resources may be used or we may have to seek additional financing to complete such acquisitions.
Any failure to manage our growth through acquisitions effectively or integrate other businesses we acquire may lead to a disruption in our operations and adversely affect our operating results.
Since our inception we have made hundreds of acquisitions and we plan to continue to make acquisitions in the future. Growth and expansion resulting from future acquisitions may place a significant demand on our management resources. Integration of our completed acquisitions and any future acquisitions involves a number of special risks, including the following:
29
-
failure to integrate successfully the personnel, information systems, technology, and operations of the acquired business;
-
failure to maximize the potential financial and strategic benefits of the transaction;
-
failure to realize the expected synergies from acquired businesses;
-
possible impairment of relationships with employees and customers as a result of any integration of new businesses and management personnel;
-
possible losses from liabilities assumed in customer contracts;
-
impairment of goodwill; and
-
reductions in future operating results from amortization of intangible assets.
Future acquisitions are accompanied by the risk that the obligations and liabilities of an acquired company may not be adequately reflected in the historical financial statements of such company and the risk that such historical financial statements may be based on assumptions, which are incorrect or inconsistent with our assumptions or approach to accounting policies. We may not be able to manage such expansion effectively and any failure to do so could lead to a disruption in our business, a loss of customers and revenue, and increased expenses.
We may acquire contingent liabilities through acquisitions that could adversely affect our operating results.
We may acquire contingent liabilities in connection with acquisitions we have completed, which may be material. Although management uses its best efforts to estimate the risks associated with these contingent liabilities and the likelihood that they will materialize, their estimates could differ materially from the liabilities actually incurred.
Demand for our software solutions may fluctuate with market conditions which may reduce our profitability in the future.
We depend upon the capital spending budgets of our customers. World and regional economic conditions have, in the past, adversely affected our licensing and support revenue. If economic or other conditions reduce our customers’ capital spending levels, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected. In addition, the purchase and implementation of our software solutions can constitute a major portion of our customers’ overall IT budget, and the amount customers are willing to invest in acquiring and implementing such software solutions has tended to vary in response to economic, financial or other business conditions. Challenging economic conditions may also impair the ability of our customers to pay for software solutions they have purchased. As a result, reserves for doubtful accounts may increase.
If our customers demand performance guarantees, the costs and risks associated with offering our software solutions may increase.
We and our competitors are sometimes requested to provide specific performance guarantees with respect to the functionality of certain aspects of our software solutions. Similarly, we have been requested to quote fixed-price bids for our software solutions. These requests present risks, because implementations of our software solutions are rarely identical, and therefore we cannot accurately predict precisely what will be required to meet these performance standards. If these guarantees and fixed price bids become more common, our profitability may be affected.
We face competition from other software solutions providers, which may reduce our market share or limit the prices we can charge for our software solutions.
30
Given that we serve numerous vertical markets, we face competition from a large number of competitors ranging in size from small private companies with annual revenues of less than $1 million per year to the larger enterprise resource planning vendors. As a result, in certain market segments, competition can be intense, and significant pricing pressure may exist. To maintain and improve our competitive position, we must continue to develop and to introduce, in a timely and cost-effective manner, new software solutions. In addition, we expect that a substantial portion of our revenue will continue to be derived from renewals of maintenance arrangements with our customers. Although we have experienced relatively stable and predictable attrition relating to these arrangements, increased competition could reduce the need for our maintenance services, as customers could decide to replace our software applications with a competitor’s applications or arrange for a third party to provide maintenance services.
We anticipate additional competition as other established and emerging companies enter the market for our software products and as new products and technologies are introduced. For example, companies that historically have not competed in one of our market segments could introduce new applications based on newer product architectures that could provide for functionality similar to or better than our software products. In addition, current and potential competitors may make strategic acquisitions or establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties, thereby increasing the ability of their products to better address the needs of our prospective customers. This risk has increased as our industry trends toward consolidation. Accordingly, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among current and new competitors may emerge and rapidly gain significant market share. This competition could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced gross margins and loss of market share for our software products.
Some of our competitors and potential competitors have greater financial, technical, marketing, and other resources, greater name recognition, and a larger installed base of customers than we do. The products of some of our competitors are based on more advanced product architectures or offer performance advantages compared with some of our more mature products. Our competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies, including AI, and changes in customer requirements or may devote greater resources to the development, promotion, and sale of their products than we do. Further, AI technology and services are a highly competitive and rapidly evolving market. New competitors continue to enter this market. We will incur development and operational costs to build and support the AI models, services, platforms, and infrastructure necessary to meet the needs of our customers. However if we do not continue to make investments to support and incorporate AI into our products, software, services and operations, we may fall behind technological developments and evolving industry standards, which would decrease our competitiveness. Many competitive factors affect the market for our products and our ability to earn maintenance, professional services and new license revenue. Some of these factors are: vendor and product reputation; industry-specific expertise; cost of ownership; ease and speed of implementation; customer support; product architecture, quality, price and performance; product performance attributes, such as flexibility, scalability, compatibility, functionality and ease of use; and vendor financial stability.
Many of our businesses use or plan to use AI in their operations; challenges with incorporating and managing its use may result in competitive harm or adversely affect the results of our businesses.
Many of our businesses are in the process of incorporating AI solutions into their software, services, and operations. We expect that AI will generally continue to become more important to our company and to our customers over time. Our competitors may incorporate AI into their products, operations
31
or services more quickly or successfully than us, develop superior products and services through the use of AI, or more effectively develop or acquire access to AI software, services or tools, which could negatively impact our businesses’ ability to compete effectively. AI may also reduce barriers to entry in the industries in which we operate, resulting in increased competition and price pressure. Further, given the rapid pace of change and highly competitive environment in connection with AI, there is an increased level of risk that the AI solutions that we develop or adopt will not be effective or commercially viable.
While we aim to develop and use AI responsibly and attempt to identify and mitigate ethical and legal issues presented by its use, AI technologies are complex and rapidly evolving. The use of AI in our businesses may generate risks with respect to harmful content, accuracy, perceived or actual bias, discrimination, human rights claims, allegations of lack of transparency, intellectual property infringement or misappropriation, breach of contract, data privacy, cyber security and misuse of personal or protected information, among others. The use of AI within our software, services, products and our operations also bring the possibility of new or enhanced governmental or regulatory scrutiny, legal liabilities, or ethical concerns that could adversely affect our operations, reputation, or financial results. The rapidly evolving patchwork of existing and proposed laws and regulatory frameworks – and general regulatory uncertainty – further expose us to challenges, uncertainties and additional costs in relation to legal and regulatory compliance. Further, AI offers users powerful tools and capabilities and there may be instances where AI within our products and services may be used in ways that are unintended, inappropriate, fraudulent or abusive. While we are committed to detecting and controlling such misuse, our efforts may not be effective and such misuse could result in negative publicity, which may lead to adverse impacts to our business and results of operations.
The consequences of our failure to adapt to these changes, or any failure by our employees, contractors, partners, suppliers or agents to comply with laws and regulations applicable to AI within our operations, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition, including, but not limited to, being required to adjust or limit our software product offerings or our use of AI in specific jurisdictions to comply with new and evolving AI laws and regulations.
If we cannot attract and retain qualified sales personnel, customer service personnel, and software developers, we may not be able to sell and to support our existing products or to develop new products.
We depend on key technical, sales, and senior management personnel. Many of these individuals would be difficult to replace if they were to leave our employment. In addition, our success is highly dependent on our continuing ability to identify, hire, train, assimilate, motivate, and retain highly qualified personnel, including recently hired officers and other employees. Any such new hire may require a significant transition period prior to making a meaningful contribution to the Company. Periodically, competition for qualified employees is intense in the technology industry, and we have in the past experienced difficulty recruiting qualified employees. Our failure to attract and to retain the necessary qualified personnel could seriously harm our operating results and financial condition.
Our future growth depends, in part, upon our ability to develop new products and to improve existing software products. Our ability to develop new software solutions and to enhance our existing software solutions will depend, in part, on our ability to recruit and to retain top quality software programmers. If we are unable to hire and to retain sufficient numbers of qualified programming personnel, we may not be able to develop new software solutions or to improve our existing software solutions in the time frame necessary to execute our business plan.
32
The loss of our rights to use software currently licensed to us by third parties could increase our operating expenses by forcing us to seek alternative technology and adversely affect our ability to compete.
We license certain technologies used in our products from third parties, generally on a non-exclusive basis. The termination of any of these licenses, or the failure of the licensors to adequately maintain or update their products, could delay our ability to ship our products while we seek to implement alternative technology offered by other sources and require significant unplanned investments on our part. In addition, alternative technology may not be available on commercially reasonable terms. In the future, it may be necessary or desirable to obtain other third-party technology licenses relating to one or more of our products or relating to current or future technologies to enhance our product offerings. There is a risk that we will not be able to obtain licensing rights to the needed technology on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.
Several members of our senior management team are important to our business and if these individuals do not remain with us in the future it may have a negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
Our future success depends on the continued efforts and abilities of our senior management team. Their skills, experience and industry contacts significantly benefit us. Although we have employment and non-competition agreements with members of our senior management team, we cannot assure you that they or our other key employees will all choose to remain employed by us. If we lose the services of one or more of these individuals, or if one or more of them decide to join a competitor or otherwise compete directly or indirectly with us, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be harmed. We do not maintain key man life insurance on any of our employees .
We may experience customer attrition, which could affect our revenues more adversely than we expect, and we may be unable to adapt quickly to such attrition. Any significant reduction in revenues as a result of such attrition may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
We expect that a substantial portion of our revenue will continue to be derived from renewals of quarterly and annual maintenance arrangements with our customers, and, to a lesser extent, from professional services engagements for these customers. Although we believe we have strong customer retention rates, attrition in our customer base does occur when existing customers elect not to renew their maintenance arrangements and cease purchasing professional services from us. Customer attrition occurs for a variety of reasons, including a customer’s decision to replace our software product with that of a competing vendor, to purchase maintenance or consulting services from a third-party service provider, or to forego maintenance services altogether. It can also occur when a customer is acquired or ceases operations.
Historically, we have been able to replace more than the revenue lost through attrition with new revenue from maintenance services as well as from price increases for maintenance services. However, any factors that adversely affect the ability of our software products to compete with those available from others, such as availability of competitors’ products offering more advanced product architecture, superior functionality or performance or lower prices, or factors that reduce demand for our maintenance services, such as intensifying price competition, could lead to increased rates of customer attrition.
Currency exchange rate fluctuations, tariffs and other risks associated with our international
33
operations may adversely affect our operating results.
We are subject to risks of doing business internationally, including fluctuations in currency exchange rates, increases in duty rates, difficulties in obtaining export licenses, difficulties in the enforcement of intellectual property rights and political uncertainties. Our most significant international operations are in the United States, United Kingdom, Continental Europe and Australia. We currently do not typically use derivative instruments to mitigate our exposure to those risks. Although most of our businesses are organized geographically so that many of our expenses are incurred in the same currency as our revenues thus mitigating some of our exposure to currency fluctuations, we are still subject to some foreign currency risk. We may choose to enter into forward foreign exchange contracts from time to time with the objective of mitigating volatility in profit or loss but there is no assurance that these hedging strategies will be effective or available on commercially reasonable terms.
Revenues and expenses generated in foreign currencies are translated at exchange rates during the month in which the transaction occurs. We cannot predict the effect of foreign exchange losses in the future; however, if significant foreign exchange losses are experienced, they could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. In addition, fluctuations in exchange rates could affect the pricing of our products and negatively influence customer demand.
We are in the IT business and our products and services are sold to customers globally. As such, we are exposed to broader macroeconomic risks, including the ongoing rise in threatened and imposed tariffs, as well as threatened and imposed retaliatory tariffs and surtaxes between countries we operate in. The imposition of tariffs, or any future escalation in trade barriers, may adversely impact our business and financial condition, increase the cost of our operations and reduce our competitive pricing due to tariff-related cost past-throughs or compliance costs and may limit market access or require changes to our supply chain or delivery methods. We may also face changes in government policies relating to trade barriers, tariff exclusions, import/export licensing or controls (including export controls, encryption, and technology-transfer restrictions) economic sanctions, or country-oforigin regulations which may also require the Company to undertake operational adjustments and face increased compliance costs. These factors may also reduce customer spending, delay project decisions or impact market demand generally.
Additional risks we face in conducting business internationally include longer payment cycles and difficulties in managing international operations. These include constraints associated with local laws regarding employment, difficulty in enforcing our agreements through foreign legal systems, complex international tax and financial reporting compliance requirements, and the adverse effects of tariffs, duties, price controls or other restrictions that impair trade.
We may have exposure to unforeseen tax liabilities.
We are subject to income taxes as well as non-income based taxes, in Canada, the United States and various foreign jurisdictions and our tax structure is subject to review by numerous taxation authorities. Significant judgment is required in determining our worldwide provision for income taxes and other tax liabilities. In the ordinary course of a global business, there are many intercompany transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Although we strive to ensure that our tax estimates and filing positions are reasonable, we cannot assure you that the final determination of any tax audits and litigation will not be different from what is reflected in our historical income tax provisions and accruals, and any such differences may materially affect our operating results for the affected period or periods.
34
The Company is subject to income tax audits by various authorities in respect of prior periods that could result in additional tax expense in future periods. While the outcome of such outstanding audits and claims remains uncertain, it is expected that they will be resolved without a material impact to the Company’s financial position.
We also have exposure to additional non-income tax liabilities. We are subject to non-income taxes, such as payroll, sales, use, value-added, net worth, property and goods and services taxes, in Canada, the United States and various foreign jurisdictions.
Impact of geopolitical and other global or local events may have a significant effect on our operations.
Various events, including natural disasters, extreme weather conditions, labour disputes, imposition of economic sanctions, civil unrest, war and political instability, terrorism, contagious illness outbreaks or pandemics and environmental disasters or the perceived threat or fear of these events, may cause a disruption of our normal operations, including staff shortages, mobility restrictions and other quarantine measures (including as a result of government regulation and prevention measures) and may disrupt the domestic and international travel of our sales and other personnel. The sales cycle for our products includes a period of education for potential customers on the use and benefits of our software solutions, as well as the integration of our software solutions with additional applications utilized by individual customers. Any disruption in the ability of our personnel to travel could have a material and adverse impact on our ability to complete this process and to service these customers or to negotiate new merger and acquisition transactions, which could, in turn, have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, these events or the perceived threat or fear of these events may require us to reorganize our day-today operations to minimize the associated risks. Any expense related to the reorganization of our day-to-day operations, even on a short-term basis, could also have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Potential divestitures of majority owned software businesses may reduce revenues in the short term and create uncertainty among our employees, customers and potential customers, which could harm our business.
Although we have not divested any material businesses in the last ten years, any divestitures could result in a short-term reduction in revenue and could harm our results of operations if we were not able to reduce expenses accordingly or to generate offsetting sources of revenue. To the extent that our consideration of these potential divestitures became known prior to their completion, we could face the risk, among others, that customers and potential customers of the VMS business in question might be reluctant to purchase our software solutions during this period. In addition, we face the risk that we may be unable to retain qualified personnel within the applicable VMS business during this period. Poor economic conditions and a lack of access to the credit markets may lead to difficulty in finding interested buyers for any proposed divestitures. These risks could prevent us from successfully completing on favourable terms, or at all, divestitures that would otherwise be beneficial to us, and may in the process weaken business divisions that we are considering for divestiture. Any of these events could result in a loss of customers, revenues, and employees and could harm our results of operations.
Some of the markets for our software products are characterized by periodic technological advances, and we must improve our software products to remain competitive.
35
Periodic technological change and associated new product introductions and enhancements characterize the software industry in general. Our current and potential customers increasingly require greater levels of functionality and more sophisticated product offerings. In addition, the life cycles of many of our software products are difficult to estimate. While we believe some of our software products may be nearing the end of their product life cycles, we cannot estimate the decline in demand from our customers for maintenance related to these software products. Accordingly, we believe that our future success depends upon our ability to enhance current software products and to develop and to introduce new products offering enhanced performance and functionality at competitive prices in a timely manner, and on our ability to enable our software products to work in conjunction with other products from other suppliers that our customers may utilize. Our failure to develop and to introduce or to enhance products in a timely manner could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We may be unable to respond on a timely basis to the changing needs of our customer base and the new applications we design for our customers may prove to be ineffective. Our ability to compete successfully will depend in large measure on our ability to bring to market effective new products or services, to maintain a technically competent research and development staff, and to adapt to technological changes and advances in the industry, including the incorporation of emerging technologies such as AI into our software products. Delays in our adoption or innovation could make our products and services less competitive or obsolete. Our software products must remain compatible with evolving computer hardware and software platforms and operating environments. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in these efforts. In addition, competitive or technological developments and new regulatory requirements may require us to make substantial, unanticipated investments in new products and technologies, and we may not have sufficient resources to make these investments. If we were required to expend substantial resources to respond to specific technological or product changes, our operating results would be adversely affected.
If we are unable to protect our proprietary technology and that of the VMS businesses that we acquire, our competitive position could be adversely affected.
We have relied, and expect to continue to rely, on a combination of copyright, trademark and tradesecret laws, confidentiality procedures, and contractual provisions to establish, maintain, and protect our proprietary rights. Although patents generally provide greater protection of software products than do trade secrets or copyrights, we currently possess only a limited number of patents. We typically enter into agreements with our employees, consultants, customers, partners and vendors in an effort to control ownership of our intellectual property and access to and distribution of our software, documentation and other proprietary information. Despite these precautions, there may be authors of some of the intellectual property that form parts of our software products who have not assigned their intellectual property rights to us and who have not waived their moral rights with respect thereto. The steps we take may not prevent misappropriation of our intellectual property, and the agreements we enter into may not be enforceable. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights in our intellectual property and that of other businesses we may acquire, unauthorized parties may copy or otherwise obtain and use our proprietary technology or obtain information we regard as proprietary. In addition, use of AI by employees or consultants, whether authorized or unauthorized, could increase the risk that our intellectual property and other proprietary information may be unintentionally disclosed. Policing unauthorized use of our technology, if required, may be difficult, time-consuming, and costly. Our means of protecting our technology may be inadequate.
Third parties may apply for and obtain patent protection for products and services that are similar to our software solutions. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or services or to obtain and to use information that we regard
36
as proprietary. Third parties may also independently develop similar or superior technology without violating our proprietary rights. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent, as do the laws of Canada and the United States.
Trademark protection is an important factor in establishing product recognition. Our inability to protect our trademarks from infringement could result in injury to any goodwill which may be developed in our trademarks. Moreover, we may be unable to use one or more of our trademarks because of successful third-party claims.
Claims of infringement are becoming increasingly common as the software industry develops and legal protections, including patents, are applied to software products. Although we believe that our software products and technology do not infringe proprietary rights of others, litigation may be necessary to protect our proprietary technology and third parties may assert infringement claims against us with respect to their proprietary rights.
Any claims or litigation can be time consuming and expensive regardless of their merit. Infringement claims against us could cause product release delays, require us to redesign our products or to enter into royalty or license agreements that may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
Software product development delays could harm our competitive position and reduce our revenues.
If we experience significant delays in releasing new or enhanced software products, our position in the market could be harmed and our revenue could be substantially reduced, which would adversely affect our operating results. We have experienced software product development delays in the past and may experience delays in the future. In particular, we may experience software product development delays associated with the integration of recently acquired software products and technologies. Delays may occur for many reasons, including the inability to hire a sufficient number of developers, discovery of bugs and errors, or the inability of our current or future software products to conform to customer and industry requirements.
Our software products may contain errors or defects that could result in lost revenue, delayed or limited market acceptance, or product liability claims with substantial litigation costs.
As a result of their complexity, software products may contain undetected errors or failures when entering the market. Despite testing performed by us and testing and use by current and potential customers, defects and errors may be found in new software products after commencement of commercial shipments or the offering of a network service using these software products. In these circumstances, we may be unable to successfully correct the errors in a timely manner or at all. The occurrence of errors and failures in our software products could result in negative publicity and a loss of, or delay in, market acceptance of those software products. Such publicity could reduce revenue from new licenses and lead to increased customer attrition. Alleviating these errors and failures could require significant expenditure of capital and other resources by us. The consequences of these errors and failures could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Because many of our customers use our software products for business-critical applications, any errors, defects, or other performance problems could result in financial or other damage to our customers. Our customers or other third parties could seek to recover damages from us in the event of actual or alleged failures of our software solutions. We have in the past been, and may from time to time continue to be, subject to these kinds of claims. Although our license agreements with
37
customers typically contain provisions designed to limit our exposure to potential claims, as well as any liabilities arising from these claims, the provisions may not effectively protect against these claims and the liability and associated costs. Accordingly, any such claim could have a material adverse effect upon our business, results of operations, and financial condition. In addition, defending this kind of claim, regardless of its merits, or otherwise satisfying affected customers, could entail substantial expense and require the devotion of significant time and attention by key management personnel.
The hosting services of some of our products are dependent on the uninterrupted operation of data centers. Any unexpected interruption in the operation of data centers used could result in customer dissatisfaction and a loss of revenues.
Some of our VMS businesses provide hosting services in respect of some of our software products. These hosting services depend upon the uninterrupted operation of data centers and the ability to protect computer equipment and information stored in these data centers against damage that may be caused by natural disaster, fire, power loss, telecommunications or internet failure, unauthorized intrusion, computer viruses and other similar damaging events. If any of the data centers we use were to become inoperable for an extended period, we might be unable to provide our customers with contracted services. Although we take what we believe to be reasonable precautions against such occurrences, we can give no assurance that damaging events such as these will not result in a prolonged interruption of our services, which could result in customer dissatisfaction, loss of revenue and damage to our business.
As a provider of hosted services, we receive confidential information, including credit card and other financial and accounting data. There can be no assurance that this information will not be subject to loss, destruction, computer break-ins, theft, or other improper activity that could jeopardize the security of information for which we are responsible. Any such lapse in security could expose us to litigation, loss of customers, or otherwise harm our business. In addition, any person who is able to circumvent our security measures could misappropriate proprietary or confidential customer information or cause interruptions in our operations.
We are currently, and may in the future become, subject to civil litigation, which if decided against us, could require us to pay judgments, settlements or other penalties and could potentially result in the dilution of our Common Shares.
In addition to being subject to litigation in the ordinary course of business, we may become subject to class actions, securities litigation or other actions, including anti-trust and anti-competitive actions.
Any litigation may be time consuming, expensive and distracting from the conduct of our daily business. The adverse resolution of any specific lawsuit could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and liquidity.
In addition, the resolution of those matters may require us to issue additional Common Shares, which could potentially result in the dilution of our Common Shares. Expenses incurred in connection with these matters (which include fees of lawyers and other professional advisors and potential obligations to indemnify officers and directors who may be parties to such actions) could adversely affect our cash position.
The market price of the Common Shares will fluctuate.
The market price of the Common Shares will fluctuate due to a number of factors, including:
38
-
actual or anticipated changes in our results of operations;
-
changes in estimates of our future results of operations by management or securities analysts;
-
announcements of technological innovations or new software products by us or our competitors;
-
general industry changes; or
-
material acquisitions.
In addition, the financial markets have experienced significant price and value fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices of equity securities of many software companies and that sometimes have been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. Broad market fluctuations, as well as economic conditions generally and in the software industry specifically, may adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares.
Sales of substantial amounts of Common Shares by our existing shareholders, or the perception that these sales will occur, may cause the market price of the Common Shares to fall.
Our dividend policy may change. We may not pay dividends in the future.
The Board adopted a policy to pay quarterly dividends commencing April 2, 2012. The Company may also pay special dividends from time to time. Although we have paid dividends in the past, there may be circumstances where we may change our position on paying dividends. There is no guarantee we will pay dividends in future years. The dividend policy will be reviewed from time to time by our Board of Directors in the context of our earnings, financial condition and other relevant factors, including the availability of acquisition opportunities and other sources of capital. As indicated in the Company’s March 6, 2014 and February 15, 2021 press releases, the Company will not hesitate to reduce or even eliminate the current quarterly dividend if, at any time, other attractive sources of capital are not readily available. In addition, if the Company fails to pay interest owing on the Subordinated Debentures in full in cash on any interest payment date in respect of the Subordinated Debentures, the Company will not be permitted to declare or pay dividends of any kind on the Common Shares until such time as the Company pays such interest to holders of Subordinated Debentures. See “Description of Capital Structure – Warrants and Subordinated Debentures”.
No limit on indebtedness
Neither the trust indenture dated November 19, 2014, as supplemented by the first supplemental indenture dated September 30, 2015, a second supplemental indenture dated August 29, 2023 and the third supplemental indenture dated October 6, 2023, in each case, between the Company and Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the “Subordinated Debenture Indenture”), nor the trust indenture dated February 16, 2024, as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture dated February 16, 2024 and a second supplemental trust indenture dated February 16, 2024, in each case, between the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the “Senior Note Indenture”, and together with the Subordinated Debenture Indenture, the “Indentures”) limits the ability of the Company to incur additional debt or liabilities (including senior indebtedness). In order to finance acquisitions from time-to-time, the Company expects to draw down additional indebtedness under its credit facility, enter new credit facilities without recourse to CSI, and may also issue additional Subordinated Debentures and/or additional Senior Notes at any time. The additional indebtedness will increase the interest payable by the Company from time-to-time until such amounts are repaid, which will represent an increase in the Company’s cost and a potential reduction in the Company’s
39
income. In addition, the Company may need to find additional sources of financing to repay these amounts when they become due. There can be no guarantee that the Company will be able to obtain financing on terms acceptable to it or at all at any such time.
If our security measures for our products and services are compromised and as a result, our data, our customers’ data or our IT systems are accessed improperly, made unavailable, or improperly modified, our products and services may be perceived as vulnerable, our brand and reputation could be damaged, the IT services we provide to our customers could be disrupted, and customers may stop using our products and services, all of which could reduce our revenue and earnings, increase our expenses and expose us to legal claims and regulatory actions.
We are in the IT business, and certain of our products and services, store, retrieve, manipulate and manage our customers’ information and data, external data, as well as our own data. We are exposed to heightened cybersecurity risks due to the nature of our operations, our reliance on information technology systems, and the sensitivity and volume of data that we collect, process, store and transmit in the ordinary course of its business. Further, as an IT business, the likelihood and potential impact of a material cybersecurity incident is elevated relative to organizations with less complex digital operations. These risks have increased in recent years as cyber‑attacks have become more frequent, sophisticated and targeted, including through the use of ransomware, phishing, social engineering, supply‑chain attacks and other malicious activities. In addition, the evolving use of AI increases the risk of cyberattacks and data breaches, which can evolve more rapidly when AI is used to facilitate the attack. Despite our security procedures, threat intelligence services, and internal control measures we utilize to safeguard our systems, we may still be vulnerable to a security breach, intrusion, or loss or theft of confidential client data, transaction data, or proprietary company information, which may harm our business, reputation and future financial results.
At times, we encounter attempts by third parties (which may include nation states and individuals sponsored by them) to identify and exploit product and service vulnerabilities, penetrate or bypass our security measures, and gain unauthorized access to our or our customers’, partners’ and suppliers’ software, hardware and cloud offerings, networks and systems, any of which could lead to the compromise of personal information or the confidential information or data of Constellation or our customers. Cyber attackers and other threat actors may be able to develop and deploy IT related viruses, worms, and other malicious software programs that could attack our networks, systems, products and services, exploit potential security vulnerabilities of our networks, systems, products and services, create system disruptions and cause shutdowns or denials of service. This is also true for third-party data, products or services incorporated into our own products and services or used by us. Data may also be accessed or modified improperly as a result of customer, partner, employee or supplier error or malfeasance and third parties may attempt to fraudulently induce customers, partners, employees or suppliers into disclosing sensitive information such as user names, passwords or other information in order to gain access to our data, our customers’, suppliers’ or partners’ data or the IT systems of Constellation, its customers, suppliers or partners.
In Canada, the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act requires businesses to give notice of any breaches of security safeguards affecting personal information to the affected individuals and Privacy Commissioner where there is a real risk of significant harm to the affected individuals and impose the keeping of a register of such breaches. Certain provinces, such as Quebec and Alberta, also have similar requirements. Failure to comply with the reporting and record keeping obligations may result in a fine. In Quebec, this fine may be up to the greater of CAD $25 million or 4% of a company’s annual revenue. In Europe, the General Data Protection Regulation provides obligations that apply internationally to entities that control or process the personal data of citizens in the territory of the European Union. This legislation also includes mandatory breach notification
40
provisions as part of a comprehensive regime that governs the processing of personal information. Penalties for violations can be up to 4% of a company’s total annual revenue. In The United States, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1966, as amended by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act and implementing regulations mandates, among other things, the adoption of uniform standards for the electronic exchange of information in common health care transactions (such as health care claims information and plan eligibility, referral certification and authorization, claims status, plan enrolment, coordination of benefits and related information), as well as standards relating to the privacy and security of individually identifiable health information, which govern the use and disclosure of such information and require the adoption of administrative, physical and technical safeguards to protect such information. In addition, many U.S. states, Canadian provinces and other countries have enacted similar laws addressing the privacy and security of health-related information. Failure to comply with laws addressing the privacy and security of health-related information could result in the imposition of significant fines and/or criminal penalties.
The consequences of security breaches, compliance with privacy and data protection laws and regulations and the potential liability associated with the failure to comply with these laws could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Effective January 2012, our policy is to pay quarterly dividends, subject to Board approval, based on our historical practice and may pay special dividends from time to time. The Board of Directors will determine if and when dividends should be declared and paid in the future based on all relevant circumstances, including the desirability of financing further growth of the Company and our financial position at the relevant time. There is no guarantee that dividends will continue to be paid in the future.
On February 6, 2023, the Company declared a special dividend pursuant to which all holders of Common Shares of record on February 16, 2023 were entitled to receive, by way of a dividend-inkind, 3.0003833 subordinate voting shares of Lumine Group Inc. for each Common Share held. The dividend was distributed on February 23, 2023.
On August 15, 2023, the Company declared a special dividend pursuant to which all holders of
42
Common Shares on September 1, 2023 were entitled to receive, by way of a dividend-in-kind, one warrant of the Company (the “Warrants”) for each Common Share held. The dividend was distributed on August 29, 2023. See “Description of Capital Structure – Warrants and Subordinated Debentures”.
On August 23, 2023, the Company declared a special dividend pursuant to which all holders of Common Shares of record on September 1, 2023 were entitled to receive, by way of a dividend-inkind, one right of the Company (each, a “Right”) for each Common Share held. The dividend was distributed on September 8, 2023. For every 3.03 Rights held, the holder of such Rights was entitled to participate in the 2023 Rights Offering by subscribing for C$100 Series 1 Debentures at a price of C$133 per C$100 principal amount of Series 1 Debentures purchased. See “General Development of the Business – Rights Offerings”.
Dividend Reinvestment Plan
Effective May 16, 2013, the Company adopted a dividend reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”), under which all registered holders of Common Shares in Canada are eligible to participate. Non-registered holders of Common Shares may be able to participate through their financial institution, broker or other intermediary through which their Common Shares are held. Alternatively, non-registered holders of Common Shares may become registered holders of such shares in order to participate in the DRIP. Computershare Trust Company of Canada is the agent and administrator of the DRIP.
Pursuant to the DRIP, eligible participants are permitted to increase their investment in the Company by choosing to automatically reinvest cash dividends received on the Common Shares held by them in additional Common Shares, which will be purchased by the Company (or a trustee, custodian or administrator on the Company’s behalf) on the open market, or at the Company’s discretion, issued from treasury. If the Common Shares issued pursuant to the DRIP are to be issued from treasury, such Common Shares will be issued at a price equal to the weighted average market price of the Common Shares on the TSX for the five trading days immediately preceding the applicable dividend payment date. To date, the Company has satisfied its obligation under the DRIP by purchasing shares on the open market.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STRUCTURE
Share Capital
The authorized capital of the Company consists of an unlimited number of Common Shares and a number of Preferred Shares, issuable in series, limited to not more than 20% of the number of issued and outstanding Common Shares at the time of issuance of any Preferred Shares. As at March 31, 2026 there were 21,191,530 Common Shares outstanding and no Preferred Shares outstanding.
Common Shares
The holders of the Common Shares are entitled to receive notice of and to attend all of our annual and special meetings of the shareholders and to one vote in respect of each Common Share held at all such meetings. The holders of the Common Shares are entitled, at the discretion of the Board, to receive out of any or all of our profits or surplus properly available for the payment of dividends, any dividend declared by the Board and payable on the Common Shares. The holders of the Common Shares will participate ratably in any distribution of assets, or liquidation, dissolution or winding-up or other distribution of our assets among shareholders for the purpose of winding up our affairs.
Preferred Shares
The Preferred Shares will be issuable in one or more series, where the Board will be authorized to fix the number of shares of each series, subject to the limitation on the number of Preferred Shares to be issued as described below, and to determine for each series, subject to the terms and conditions set out herein, the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions, including dividend rates, redemption prices, conversion rights and other matters.
Ranking and Priority
Each series of Preferred Shares will be entitled to priority over the Common Shares and any other shares of the Company ranking junior to the Preferred Shares with respect to priority in the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, and any other distribution of the assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of winding-up its affairs. The Preferred Shares of any series may also be given such other preferences, not inconsistent with the provisions hereof, over the Common Shares and any other shares of the Company ranking junior to the Preferred Shares, as may be determined by the Board.
Parity Among Series
Each series of Preferred Shares will rank on a parity with every other series of Preferred Shares with respect to priority in the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, and any other distribution of the assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of windingup its affairs.
Participation Upon Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up
In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or other distribution of assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, the holders of the Preferred Shares will be entitled to receive from the assets of the Company any cumulative
44
dividends, whether or not declared, or declared non-cumulative dividends or amounts payable on a return of capital which are not paid in full in respect of any Preferred Shares and any redemption price or other liquidation amount in accordance with the rights, terms and conditions of any particular series, before any amount is paid or any assets of the Company are distributed to the holders of any Common Shares or shares of any other class ranking junior to the Preferred Shares. After payment to the holders of the Preferred Shares of the amount so payable to them as above provided they will not be entitled to share in any further distribution of assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs.

Conversion
No series of Preferred Shares will be convertible into any other class of shares but they may be convertible into another series of Preferred Shares.
Redemption
Each series of Preferred Shares may be redeemable by the Company on such terms as may be determined by the Board.
Voting
Holders of any series of Preferred Shares will not be entitled (except as otherwise provided by law and except for meetings of the holders of Preferred Shares or a series thereof) to receive notice of, attend at, or vote at any meeting of shareholders of the Company, unless the Board determines otherwise, in which case voting rights will only be provided in circumstances where the Company has failed to pay a certain number of dividends on such series of Preferred Shares, which determination and number of dividends and any other terms in respect of such voting rights, will be determined by the Board and set out in the designations, rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions of such series of Preferred Shares.
Warrants and Subordinated Debentures
Warrants
As at March 31, 2026 there were 21,191,530 Warrants outstanding. The Warrants are not exercisable by the holders thereof unless and until the Company exercises the company redemption right in respect of the Series 1 Debentures. If the Company exercises such company redemption right, each Warrant will become exercisable by the holder thereof for a period of 30 calendar days (the “Warrant Exercise Period”) starting from the date that the Company provides notice to the holders of its Series 1 Debentures that the Company is exercising the company redemption right to redeem the Series 1 Debentures. Following notice by the Company of the exercise of the company redemption right, each Warrant will, upon exercise, entitle the holder thereof to receive, on the 10th business day following the last date of the Warrant Exercise Period (the “Series 2 Issuance Date”) C$100 principal amount of unsecured subordinated floating rate debentures, Series 2 of the Company (the “Series 2 Debentures”, and together with the Series 1 Debentures, the “Subordinated Debentures”) for each C$100 principal amount of Series 1 Debentures tendered for repurchase by the Company. The
45
Company will pay any accrued and unpaid interest on the Series 1 Debentures tendered for repurchase up to, but excluding, the Series 2 Issuance Date. Other than tendering the Series 1 Debentures for repurchase, no additional exercise price will be owing by a holder of a Warrant upon the exercise of a Warrant.
The Warrants are not currently listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange or any other exchange. If and when the company redemption right in respect of the Series 1 Debentures is exercised, the Company plans to apply to list the Warrants on the TSX, so that the Warrants would trade on the TSX during the Warrant Exercise Period. The Company’s ability to list the Warrants will be subject to the approval of the TSX at such time.
All unexercised Warrants will expire on the earlier of (i) the first date on which all the outstanding Series 1 Debentures have matured or have otherwise been repurchased, redeemed or cancelled, and (ii) March 31, 2040.
Subordinated Debentures
In connection with the 2014 Rights Offering, on October 1, 2014 and November 19, 2014, the Company issued two tranches of Series 1 Debentures with an aggregate principal amount of C$96.0 million for total proceeds of C$91.2 million to the Company. In connection with the 2015 Rights Offering, on September 30, 2015, the Company issued another tranche of Series 1 Debentures with a total principal amount of C$186.2 million for total proceeds of C$214.1 million. In connection with the 2023 Rights Offering, on October 6, 2023, the Company issued another tranche of Series 1 Debentures with a total principal amount of C$213 million for total proceeds of C$282 million.
As at March 31, 2026, the total principal amount of Series 1 Debentures outstanding was C$495 million, and there were no Series 2 Debentures outstanding.
The Subordinated Debentures have a maturity date of March 31, 2040 (the “Maturity Date”). The interest rate from and including March 31, 2025 to but excluding March 31, 2026 is 8.9%. The interest rate from and including March 31, 2026 to but excluding March 31, 2027 will be 8.6%. From and including March 31, 2026 to but excluding the Maturity Date, the interest rate applicable to the Subordinated Debentures will be reset on an annual basis on March 31 of each year, at a rate equal to the annual average percentage change in the All-items Consumer Price Index during the 12 month period ending on December 31 in the prior year (which amount may be positive or negative) plus 6.5%. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest rate applicable to the Subordinated Debentures will not be less than 0%. The Company may, subject to certain approvals, elect to make payment in kind (a “PIK Election”), in lieu of paying interest in cash, to satisfy all or any portion of its interest obligation payable on an interest payment date by issuing to each Subordinated Debenture holder Subordinated Debentures equal to the amount of the interest obligation to be satisfied (“PIK Debentures”). The PIK Debentures will have the same terms and conditions as the Subordinated Debentures and will form part of the principal amount of the Subordinated Debentures. If, on any interest payment date, the Company fails to pay the amount of interest owing on the Subordinated Debentures in full in cash, the Company will not (A) declare or pay dividends of any kind on the Common Shares, nor (B) participate in any share buyback or redemption involving the Common Shares, until the date on which the Company pays such interest (or the unpaid portion thereof) in cash to holders of the Subordinated Debentures; however, if the Company has issued PIK Debentures in respect of all or a portion of the amount of interest owing on the Subordinated Debentures on one or more interest payment dates, the Company may resume declaring or paying dividends of any kind on the Common Shares and participating in any share buyback or redemption involving the Common Shares beginning on the earlier of (i) the next interest payment date in respect of which the Company
46
pays the amount of interest owing on the Subordinated Debentures in full in cash and (ii) the date on which the Company repays all amounts owing under the PIK Debentures. All payments in respect of the Subordinated Debentures will be subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all senior indebtedness of the Company, including the Senior Notes.
The Subordinated Debentures will be redeemable in certain circumstances at the option of the Company or the holder. During the period beginning on March 16 and ending on March 31 of each year, the Company will have the right, at its option, to give notice to holders of Subordinated Debentures of its intention to redeem the Subordinated Debentures, in whole or in part, on March 31 in the year that is five years following the year in which notice is given, at a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest up to but excluding the date fixed for redemption. During the period beginning on March 1 and ending on March 15 of each year, holders of Subordinated Debentures will have the right, at their option, to give notice to the Company of their intention to require the Company to repurchase (or to “put”) the Subordinated Debentures, in whole or in part, on March 31 in the year that is five years following the year in which notice is given, at a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest up to but excluding the date fixed for repurchase.
Upon the occurrence of a change of control of the Company involving the acquisition of voting control or direction of more than 50% of the votes represented by the issued and outstanding Common Shares by any person or group of persons acting jointly or in concert (a “Change of Control”), each holder of Subordinated Debentures may require the Company to purchase, on the date which is 30 days following the giving of notice of the Change of Control as set out below (the “Change of Control Put Date”), the whole or any part of such holder’s Subordinated Debentures at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof (the “Change of Control Put Price”) plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the Change of Control Put Date. If 90% or more of the aggregate principal amount of the Subordinated Debentures outstanding on the date of the giving of notice of the Change of Control have been tendered for purchase on the Change of Control Put Date, the Company will have the right to redeem all the remaining Subordinated Debentures on such date at the Change of Control Put Price, together with accrued and unpaid interest to such date. Notice of such redemption must be given to the debenture trustee prior to the Change of Control Put Date and, as soon as possible thereafter, by the debenture trustee to the holders of the Subordinated Debentures not tendered for purchase.
The rights of the holders of the Subordinated Debentures as well as any other series of debentures that may be issued under the Subordinated Debenture Indenture may be modified in accordance with the terms of the Subordinated Debenture Indenture. For that purpose, among others, the Subordinated Debenture Indenture contains certain provisions which will make binding on all Subordinated Debenture holders resolutions passed at meetings of the holders of the debentures issued under the Subordinated Debenture Indenture by votes cast thereat by holders of not less than 66[2/3] % of the principal amount of the then outstanding debentures present at the meeting or represented by proxy, or rendered by instruments in writing signed by the holders of not less than 66[2/3] % of the principal amount of the then outstanding debentures. In certain cases, the modification will, instead of or in addition to the foregoing, require assent by the holders of the required percentage of debentures of each particularly affected series. Under the Subordinated Debenture Indenture, the debenture trustee will have the right to make certain amendments to the Subordinated Debenture Indenture in its discretion, without the consent of the holders of Subordinated Debentures.
The Subordinated Debenture Indenture provides that an event of default (“Event of Default”) in respect of the Subordinated Debentures will occur if certain events described in the Subordinated Debenture Indenture occur, including if any one or more of the following described events has
47
occurred and is continuing with respect to the Subordinated Debentures: (i) failure to pay principal or premium, if any, on the Subordinated Debentures, whether at the maturity date, upon redemption, by acceleration or otherwise; or (ii) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company under bankruptcy or insolvency laws. Subject to the senior indebtedness postponement provisions, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the debenture trustee may, in its discretion, and shall, upon the request of holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Subordinated Debentures, declare the principal of (and premium, if any) and accrued interest on all outstanding Subordinated Debentures to be immediately due and payable.
The Series 2 Debentures are identical in all material respects to the Series 1 Debentures, except that the Series 2 Debentures do not include a company redemption right.
Senior Notes
The 2029 Notes will accrue interest at a rate of 5.158% per year and will mature on February 16, 2029 unless redeemed or repurchased prior to that date. The 2034 Notes will accrue interest at a rate of 5.461% per year and will mature on February 16, 2034 unless redeemed or repurchased prior to that date. Interest will accrue on the Senior Notes from the most recent interest payment date to or for which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from the issue date of the notes), payable semi-annually in arrears on February 16 and August 16 of each year, beginning on August 16, 2024.
The Senior Notes are not listed on any securities exchange or included in any automated quotation system and are not subject to any sinking fund.
The Company may, subject to compliance with applicable law, at any time purchase Senior Notes in the open market or otherwise.
The Senior Note Indenture contains certain covenants that limit the Company’s ability to incur liens, enter into sale and leaseback transactions and sell or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to another entity.
Each of the Company’s subsidiaries that is a guarantor of indebtedness outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility agreement dated as of January 31, 2024 (the “Credit Facility”) has guaranteed each series of Senior Notes. In addition, each of the Company’s subsidiaries that becomes a guarantor of indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Facility will be required to guarantee the Senior Notes on a senior unsecured basis. The guarantors will, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee the Company’s obligations under each series of Senior Notes and all obligations under the Senior Note Indenture.
The Senior Notes and the guarantees will be senior unsubordinated obligations of the Company and the guarantors and will rank equally ( pari passu ) with all other senior unsubordinated debt obligations of the Company and the guarantors from time to time outstanding, including the Credit Facility.
The Senior Notes and the guarantees are unsecured obligations of the Company and the guarantors, respectively. Secured indebtedness of the Company and the guarantors will be effectively senior to the Senior Notes and the guarantees to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness.
48
The Senior Notes and the guarantees rank senior in right of payment to all of the existing and future obligations of the Company and guarantors that are expressly subordinated to the Senior Notes, including the Subordinated Debentures.
Prior to January 16, 2029 (one month prior to their maturity date), in the case of the 2029 Notes (the “2029 Par Call Date”) and prior to November 16, 2033 (three months prior to their maturity date), in the case of the 2034 Notes (the “2034 Par Call Date” and together with the 2029 Par Call Date, the “Par Call Dates”), the Company may redeem the Senior Notes of the applicable series at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to the greater of 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, such redemption date and the applicable “make-whole” redemption amount calculated as described under the Senior Note Indenture.

Certain other changes to the Senior Note Indenture require the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount outstanding of the 2029 Senior Notes or the 2034 Senior Notes, in each case affected by the amendments.
Credit Ratings
Fitch Ratings (“Fitch”) has assigned a rating to the Subordinated Debentures of ‘BBB’ and a rating to the Senior Notes of ‘BBB+’. According to Fitch’s website, a credit rating of ‘BBB’ represents good credit quality and indicates that expectations of default risk are currently low. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered adequate but adverse business or economic conditions are more likely to impair this capacity. The modifiers "+" or "-" may be appended to a rating to denote relative status within major rating categories. The ‘BBB’ rating assigned by Fitch is the 4th highest of Fitch’s 11 rating categories, which range from ‘AAA’ to ‘D’.
Standard & Poor’s Global Ratings, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. (“S&P”) has assigned a rating to the Senior Notes of ‘BBB‘. According to S&P’s website, a credit rating of ‘BBB’ represents adequate capacity to meet financial commitments, but more subject to adverse economic conditions. The modifiers "+" or "-" may be appended to a rating to denote relative standing within the major rating categories. The ‘BBB’ rating assigned by S&P is the 4th highest of S&P’s 12 rating categories, which range from ‘AAA’ to ‘D’.
A credit rating or a stability rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the credit rating organization.
The Company has made customary payments of fees to Fitch and S&P in connection with the abovementioned ratings but has not made any payments to Fitch or S&P in respect of any other service provided to the Company by Fitch or S&P, as applicable, during the last two years.

Audit Fees relate to professional services rendered for audits of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements, and reviews of our interim consolidated financial statements for the first three quarters of the year. Statutory Audit Fees relate to statutory and stand-alone audits of certain of our subsidiaries. Audit-Related Fees relate to certification/attestation services and agreed upon procedures. Tax Compliance Fees relate principally to fees associated with assistance in respect of tax compliance requirements in various jurisdictions and investment (research and development) tax credit filings.

The Company regularly solicits bids from multiple service providers for tax compliance work and other tax services, and makes decisions based on factors such as expertise, capabilities and price. The time and effort required by service providers to understand the multitude of businesses owned by the Company is fairly extensive, thus developing long term relationships results in process efficiencies.
