² Q2-F2025 adjusted for $50.9 million of restructuring, integration and acquisition-related costs, net of tax; Q2-F2024 adjusted for $32.5 million of restructuring, integration and acquisition-related costs, net of tax.

Earnings before income taxes were $582.6 million, up 0.9% year-over-year, for a margin of 14.5%, down 90 basis points compared to the same period last year. Adjusted earnings before interest and taxes was $665.7 million, up 5.9% year-over-year, for a margin of 16.5%, down 30 basis points compared to the same period last year.

Net earnings were $429.7 million, up 0.7% compared with the same period last year, for a margin of 10.7%, down 70 basis points compared to the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share, as a result, were $1.89 compared to $1.83 last year, representing an increase of 3.3%.

Adjusted net earnings¹ were $480.7 million, up 4.6% compared with the same period last year, for a margin of 11.9%, down 40 basis points compared to the same period last year. On the same basis, diluted earnings per share increased by 7.6% to $2.12, up from $1.97 for the same period last year.

Cash provided by operating activities was $438.2 million, representing 10.9% of revenue. On a trailing twelve month basis, cash provided by operating activities was $2.21 billion, representing 14.6% of revenue.

Bookings were $4.48 billion, representing a book-to-bill ratio of 111.5% and 110.6% on a trailing twelve-month basis. As of March 31, 2025, the Company's backlog reached $30.99 billion or 2.0x annual revenue.

As of March 31, 2025, the number of CGI consultants and professionals worldwide stood at approximately 94,000.

During the second quarter of Fiscal 2025, the Company invested $99.7 million back into its business, acquired businesses for an investment of $1,560.6 million net of cash acquired, and invested $344.6 million under its previous and current Normal Course Issuer Bid to purchase and cancel Class A subordinate voting shares. In addition, CGI returned $34.1 million back to its shareholders through the payment of dividends.

As at March 31, 2025, long-term debt and lease liabilities, including both their current and long-term portions, were $4.37 billion, up from $3.03 billion at the same time last year, mainly driven by the issuance of senior unsecured notes for an amount of $1,671.0 million, and a foreign exchange impact of $87.0 million. This was partially offset by the scheduled repayment of senior unsecured notes for an amount of $475.8 million. As of the same date, net debt stood at $3.24 billion, up from $1.73 billion at the same time last year. The net debt-to- capitalization ratio was 24.1% at the end of March 2025, compared to 16.4% last year.

"We remain in constant dialogue with our clients regarding the evolving business dynamics they are facing. To remain strong, we regularly assess these dynamics and take proactive actions to expand shareholder value for the benefit of our stakeholders," said Mr. Boulanger. "As such, CGI increased the scope of our previously announced restructuring program, most of which continues to be targeted within our Continental Europe operations." CGI incurred $44.2 million of costs this quarter and expects to incur an additional $137.0 million to implement these actions over the next few quarters.

Forward-looking information and statements include all information and statements regarding CGI's intentions, plans, expectations, beliefs, objectives, future performance, and strategy, as well as any other information or statements that relate to future events or circumstances and which do not directly and exclusively relate to historical facts. Forward-looking information and statements often but not always use words such as "believe", "estimate", "expect", "intend", "anticipate", "foresee", "plan", "predict", "project", "aim", "seek", "strive", "potential", "continue", "target", "may", "might", "could", "should", and similar expressions and variations thereof. These information and statements are based on our perception of historic trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other assumptions, both general and specific, that we believe are appropriate in the circumstances. Such information and statements are, however, by their very nature, subject to inherent risks and uncertainties, of which many are beyond the control of CGI, and which give rise to the possibility that actual results could differ materially from our expectations expressed in, or implied by, such forward-looking information or forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include but are not restricted to: risks related to the market such as the level of business activity of our clients, which is affected by economic and political conditions, additional external risks (such as pandemics, armed conflict, climate-related issues, inflation, tariffs and/or trade wars) and our ability to negotiate new contracts; risks related to our industry such as competition and our ability to develop and expand our services to address emerging business demands and technology trends (such as artificial intelligence), to penetrate new markets, and to protect our intellectual property rights; risks related to our business such as risks associated with our growth strategy, including the integration of new operations, financial and operational risks inherent in worldwide operations, legal and operational risks inherent in contracting with government clients, foreign exchange risks, income tax laws and other tax programs, the termination, modification, delay or suspension of our contractual agreements, our expectations regarding future revenue resulting from bookings and backlog, our ability to attract and retain qualified employees, to negotiate favourable contractual terms, to deliver our services and to collect receivables, to disclose, manage and implement environmental, social and governance (ESG) initiatives and standards, and to achieve ESG commitments and targets, including without limitation, our commitment to net-zero carbon emissions, as well as the reputational and financial risks attendant to cybersecurity breaches and other incidents, including through the use of artificial intelligence, and financial risks such as liquidity needs and requirements, maintenance of financial ratios, our ability to declare and pay dividends, interest rate fluctuations and changes in creditworthiness and credit ratings; as well as other risks identified or incorporated by reference in this press release, in CGI's annual and quarterly MD&A and in other documents that we make public, including our filings with the Canadian Securities Administrators (on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (on EDGAR at www.sec.gov). Unless otherwise stated, the forward-looking information and statements contained in this press release are made as of the date hereof and CGI disclaims any intention or obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking information or forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. While we believe that our assumptions on which these forward-looking information and forward-looking statements are based were reasonable as at the date of this press release, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking information or statements. Furthermore, readers are reminded that forward looking information and statements are presented for the sole purpose of assisting investors and others in understanding our objectives, strategic priorities and business outlook as well as our anticipated operating environment. Readers are cautioned that such information may not be appropriate for other purposes.

Further information on the risks that could cause our actual results to differ significantly from our current expectations may be found in the section titled Risk Environment of CGI's annual and quarterly MD&A, which is incorporated by reference in this cautionary statement. We also caution readers that the above-mentioned risks and the risks disclosed in CGI's annual and quarterly MD&A and other documents and filings are not the only ones that could affect us.

Non-GAAP and other key performance measures

Non-GAAP financial measures and ratios used in this press release: Constant currency revenue growth, adjusted earnings before interest and taxes, adjusted earnings before interest and taxes margin, adjusted net earnings, adjusted net earnings margin, adjusted diluted EPS, net debt, net debt to capitalization ratio, and return on invested capital (ROIC). CGI reports its financial results in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. However, management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors regarding the company's financial condition and results of operations as they provide additional measures of its performance. These measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers and should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Key performance measures used in this press release: cash provided by operating activities as a percentage of revenue, bookings, book-to-bill ratio, backlog, days sales outstanding (DSO), earnings before income taxes margin, and net earnings margin.

Below are reconciliations to the most comparable IFRS Accounting Standards financial measures and ratios, as applicable.

The descriptions of these non-GAAP measures and ratios and other key performance measures can be found on pages 3, 4, 5 and 6 of our Q2-F2025 MD&A which is posted on CGI's website, and filed with the Canadian Securities Administrators on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.
