Revenue of $1,098.6 million vs. $1,072.5 million in prior year Earnings per share (EPS) of $0.18 vs. $0.15 in prior year Adjusted EPS(1) of $0.21 vs. $0.21 in prior year Operating income of $133.8 million vs. $108.6 million in prior year Adjusted segment operating income(1) of $147.8 million vs. $134.2 million in prior year Adjusted order intake(1) of $1.1 billion and $19.5 billion adjusted backlog(1) Matthew Bromberg to succeed Marc Parent as CAE President and CEO on August 13, 2025 MONTREAL, Aug. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - (NYSE: CAE) (TSX: CAE) - CAE Inc. (CAE or the Company) today reported its financial results for the fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2025. "CAE delivered a solid first quarter, with double-digit income growth and margin expansion in Defense and continued momentum in Civil. We remain on track to capitalize on the significant opportunities ahead, supported by secular demand in civil aviation and the generational reinvestment underway in defence across NATO, including Canada's plan to more than double its spending over the next decade," said Calin Rovinescu, Chairman of CAE. "With a well-balanced portfolio across both civil aviation and defence, CAE is uniquely positioned to benefit from long-term structural tailwinds in both sectors. As we build on the foundation established under Marc Parent's leadership, we are bringing a renewed focus to operational excellence, disciplined capital allocation, balance sheet strength, and translating earnings into free cash flow and higher returns on invested capital. I also want to congratulate Marc on the legacy he leaves at CAE and his lasting impact on the broader aerospace industry. At the same time, I am pleased to welcome Matt as he steps in to lead CAE's next phase of value creation." CAE announced the appointment of Matthew (Matt) Bromberg to be Marc Parent's successor as the Company's next President and Chief Executive Officer and will take effect after the 2025 Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders (AGM) on August 13, 2025. Mr. Bromberg is also a nominee for election to the Board. CAE also announced that following the AGM, Calin Rovinescu will become Executive Chairman of the Board and that Sophie Brochu will serve as Lead Independent Director, reflecting CAE's commitment to strong, best-in-class governance. "Our first quarter results reflect the dedication of our teams and the strength of our position, with solid Civil performance in a dynamic macro environment and strong execution in Defense, including significant year-over- year profitability improvement. Over the past two decades, I've had the privilege of helping transform CAE into the global leader it is today, and I'm incredibly proud of what we've accomplished," said Marc Parent, CAE's President and Chief Executive Officer. As I pass the torch, I do so with full confidence in the company's direction and in the team's ability to continue driving performance and delivering excellence for all stakeholders." "In the past few weeks of onboarding, I've seen first-hand the strength of CAE's world-class team, its leading-edge technology, and the depth of its customer relationships," said Matthew Bromberg, CAE's incoming President and CEO. "This is a fantastic organization with tremendous potential to build on its past successes. As I step into the role, a key focus of mine will be on translating that potential into enhanced shareholder value through a pragmatic approach to improving efficiency, operationalizing opportunities, and driving greater operational excellence in our core businesses. I also want to thank Marc for his leadership and support throughout the transition. He leaves CAE exceptionally well-positioned for the future."

Civil Aviation (Civil) First quarter Civil revenue was $607.7 million vs. $587.6 million in the first quarter last year. Operating income was $99.4 million (16.4% of revenue) compared to $89.8 million (15.3% of revenue) in the same quarter last year. Adjusted segment operating income was $107.6 million (17.7% of revenue) compared to $106.4 million (18.1% of revenue) in the first quarter last year. During the quarter, Civil delivered 8 full-flight simulators (FFSs) to customers and first quarter Civil training centre utilization was 71%. During the quarter, Civil signed training solutions contracts valued at $511.4 million for a range of long-term commercial and business aviation training agreements, Flightscape airline operations digital solutions, and 5 FFS sales. The Civil book-to-sales ratio(1) was 0.84 times for the quarter and 1.27 times for the last 12 months. The Civil adjusted backlog at the end of the quarter was $8.4 billion.

Operating income was $34.4 million (7.0% of revenue) compared to $18.8 million (3.9% of revenue) in the same quarter last year. Adjusted segment operating income was also $40.2 million (8.2% of revenue), compared to $27.8 million (5.7% of revenue) in the first quarter last year. Defense booked orders for $611.4 million this quarter for a book-to-sales ratio of 1.25 times. The ratio for the last 12 months was 2.08 times. The Defense adjusted backlog, including unfunded contract awards and CAE's interest in joint ventures, at the end of the quarter was $11.1 billion. Notably for the Defense segment overall, the pipeline continues to reflect a strong demand environment with some $6.0 billion of bids and proposals pending. Summary of Defense and Security results (amounts in millions) Q1-2026 Q1-2025 Variance % Revenue $ 490.9 $ 484.9 1 % Operating income $ 34.4 $ 18.8 83 % Adjusted segment operating income $ 40.2 $ 27.8 45 % As a % of revenue % 8.2 % 5.7Adjusted order intake $ 611.4 $ 421.5 45 % Adjusted backlog $ 11,104.3 $ 10,392.6 7 % Additional financial highlights Net finance expense this quarter was $54.6 million, down from $56.5 million in the previous quarter and up from $49.5 million in the first quarter last year. The year-over-year increase was mainly due to higher finance expense on lease liabilities in support of training network expansions and additional finance expense on borrowings to finance the SIMCOM transaction in the third quarter of last year. The increase was partially offset by lower finance expense on long-term debt due to a decreased level of borrowings during the period aligned with our ongoing deleveraging undertakings. Income tax expense this quarter amounted to $19.0 million, representing an effective tax rate of 24%, compared to 14% for the first quarter last year. The adjusted effective tax rate(1), which is the income tax rate used to determine adjusted net income and adjusted EPS, was 24% this quarter compared to 17% in the first quarter of last year. The increase in the adjusted effective tax rate was mainly attributable to the change in the mix of income from various jurisdictions. Net cash used in operating activities was $15.3 million for the quarter, compared to $12.9 million in the first quarter last year. Free cash flow(1) was negative $36.2 million for the quarter compared to negative $25.3 million in the first quarter last year. The decrease was mainly due to a higher investment in non-cash working capital, partially offset by higher net income adjusted for non-cash items and higher dividends received from equity accounted investees. Growth and maintenance capital expenditures(1) totaled $106.9 million this quarter. Net debt(1) at the end of the quarter was $3,236.1 million for a net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA(1) of 2.75 times. This compares to net debt of $3,176.7 million and a net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA of 2.77 times at the end of the preceding quarter. Adjusted return on capital employed(1) was 7.0% this quarter compared to 7.2% last quarter and 5.7% in the first quarter last year. During the quarter, no common shares were repurchased under our normal course issuer bid (NCIB), which began on June 10, 2025.

Sustainability In the first quarter of fiscal 2026, CAE released its FY25 Global Annual Activity and Sustainability Report, underscoring how climate action, ethical governance, and social impact are embedded in its core business strategy to enhance resilience, competitiveness, and stakeholder value. Despite a 10% increase in business activity, CAE maintained stable carbon emissions—demonstrating the effectiveness of its science-based decarbonization strategy and operational efficiencies. The shadow internal carbon pricing mechanism introduced in FY25 will now be progressively integrated into capital allocation decisions, while CAE's award-winning supplier engagement program continues to drive emissions reductions and sustainable innovation across the value chain. Under the broadened mandate of the Chief People and Sustainability Officer, CAE is aligning its people strategy with sustainability objectives— reinforcing culture, talent attraction, and employee engagement. The Company also enhanced its environmental, social and governance disclosures in alignment with Global Reporting Initiative and Sustainability Accounting Standards Board frameworks, reaffirming its commitment to transparency and long-term stakeholder value. During the quarter, CAE advanced its Reconciliation efforts by achieving Committed Phase 2 for Partnership Accreditation in Indigenous Relations (PAIR) from the Canadian Council for Indigenous Business (CCIB), reflecting its growing commitment to respectful and empowering relationships with Indigenous communities. In recognition of its broader sustainability leadership, CAE was honoured with two global sustainability awards, including being named one of the World's Most Sustainable Companies of 2025 by TIME magazine. For information on CAE's sustainability roadmap and achievements, the report can be downloaded at Management outlook Civil CAE's Civil business continues to benefit from strong and durable fundamentals in a secular growth market for aviation training solutions. A key driver of this resilience is the global regulatory requirement that pilots and crew maintain certification for each aircraft type in the active commercial and business jet fleet. Worldwide regulations consistently mandate recurrent training—typically every six months—for pilots to retain their certifications. This built-in regulatory cadence provides CAE's Civil business with a stable and recurring demand base, making it inherently less cyclical. Additional growth is driven by the ongoing need to train new pilots due to fleet expansion and retirements, as well as transition training for existing pilots moving between aircraft platforms. Business aviation training, which represents approximately half of Civil's profitability, continues to enjoy a stable demand environment, supported by flight activity that remains well above 2019 levels. At the same time, commercial aviation training continues to be impacted by persistent supply chain constraints. Aircraft Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are experiencing record backlogs in support of future growth and fleet renewal; however, new aircraft deliveries have been metered, and groundings of existing commercial aircraft have been significant. These temporary constraints continue to affect airline pilot hiring and related training activity. More recently, airlines have also adopted a more cautious approach to capacity planning amid macroeconomic uncertainty. Despite these near-term headwinds, demand is expected to strengthen over the long term as aircraft production and delivery rates improve, grounded aircraft return to service, and pilots continue to reach mandatory retirement age. Reflecting short-term market dynamics and usual seasonality, CAE continues to anticipate a stronger second half for Civil in fiscal year 2026, supported by increased activity with airline customers in the U.S., stabilizing macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions, a gradual easing of aircraft supply chain constraints, and seasonally higher training demand. For the full year, Civil's adjusted segment operating income (aSOI) is expected to grow in the mid-single-digit percentage range, which is at the lower end of the prior outlook. Annual aSOI margin is expected to remain stable. This outlook reflects the inherent resilience of Civil's business model and incorporates a measured view of first-half performance. Defense Management believes CAE is exceptionally well-positioned for long-term growth and enhanced profitability in Defense, backed by an adjusted backlog exceeding $11.0 billion and a prolonged up-cycle driven by rising defence budgets across NATO and allied nations—many of which are now targeting defence spending levels approaching 5% of GDP. In Canada in particular, the federal government recently announced that the country will achieve NATO's 2% of GDP defence spending target in the current fiscal year, at least five years ahead of schedule, and is now committing to a new target of 5% by 2035. Escalating geopolitical tensions, focusing militaries on peer threats, modernization, and readiness, are fueling robust demand for CAE's training and simulation solutions. A global shortage of uniformed personnel further amplifies this demand prompting armed forces to partner with CAE to sustain operational readiness. With the Defense foundation now solidified, evidenced by significant margin improvement driven by last fiscal year's high-cadence, high-quality execution, management expects low-double-digit percentage annual aSOI growth and an annual aSOI margin in the 8% to 8.5% range in fiscal 2026. Free cash flow CAE's business is highly cash-generative and following a significant multiyear investment cycle, management anticipates strong free cash flow in fiscal 2026, driven by robust operating cash flows, lower investments including capital expenditures, and further optimization of non-cash working capital. This performance is expected to translate into a conversion rate of approximately 150% of adjusted net income attributable to the Company's equity holders for this fiscal year—and beyond. Finance expense and tax expense Management expects quarterly run-rate finance expense of approximately $55 million on higher lease expense related to recently opened training centres in its global training network in support of growth and additional finance expense on borrowings to finance the SIMCOM transaction. The annual effective income tax rate is expected to be approximately 25%, considering the income expected from various jurisdictions and the implementation of global minimum tax policies. Balanced capital allocation priorities, accretive growth investments The Company expects total capital expenditures in fiscal 2026 to be modestly lower than fiscal 2025, which totaled $356.2 million. Most of this relates to organic growth investments in simulator capacity to be deployed to CAE's global network of aviation training centres and backed by multiyear customer contracts. Solid financial position A tenet of CAE's capital management priorities includes the maintenance of a solid financial position, and it expects to continue to bolster its balance sheet through ongoing deleveraging, commensurate with its investment grade profile. Having met its fiscal 2025 leverage target, CAE now expects to reach a net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio of two-and-a-half times (2.5x) by fiscal year-end. Current returns to shareholders A NCIB was established in fiscal 2025 as part of CAE's capital management strategy and is intended to be used opportunistically over time with excess free cash flow. Trade tariffs impact CAE remains relatively well insulated from direct tariff impacts. Approximately 70% of the Company's revenues come from services delivered within our customers' own countries, which significantly limits exposure to cross- border trade tariffs—particularly for products sold into the U.S. Furthermore, CAE's flagship product, the FFS, is exempt from tariffs under the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. With approximately one-third of CAE's workforce based in the U.S., a substantial operational footprint, and a significant proportion of U.S.-sourced components in its bill of materials, CAE has the operational flexibility to effectively manage residual tariff-related risk. Caution concerning outlook Management's outlook for fiscal 2026 and the above targets and expectations constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable securities laws, and are based on a number of assumptions, including in relation to prevailing market conditions, macroeconomic and geopolitical factors, supply chains and labor markets.

All such statements constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. By their nature, forward-looking statements require us to make assumptions and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties associated with our business which may cause actual results in future periods to differ materially from results indicated in forward-looking statements. While these statements are based on management's expectations and assumptions regarding historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors that we believe are reasonable and appropriate in the circumstances, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements as there is a risk that they may not be accurate.

Except as required by law, we disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The forward-looking information and statements contained in this press release are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement. In addition, statements that "we believe" and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this press release. While we believe that information provides a reasonable basis for these statements, that information may be limited or incomplete. Our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on these statements. Except as otherwise indicated by CAE, forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any special items or of any dispositions, monetizations, mergers, acquisitions, other business combinations or other transactions that may occur after August 12, 2025. The financial impact of these transactions and special items can be complex and depends on the facts particular to each of them.

Forward-looking statements are presented in this press release for the purpose of assisting investors and others in understanding certain key elements of our expected fiscal 2026 financial results and in obtaining a better understanding of our anticipated operating environment. Readers are cautioned that such information may not be appropriate for other purposes. Material assumptions The forward-looking statements set out in this press release are based on certain assumptions including, without limitation: the prevailing market conditions, geopolitical instability including the rapidly evolving trade and tariff environment, the customer receptivity to our training and operational support solutions, the accuracy of our estimates of addressable markets and market opportunity, the realization of anticipated annual recurring cost savings and other intended benefits from restructuring initiatives and operational excellence programs, the ability to respond to anticipated inflationary pressures and our ability to pass along rising costs through increased prices, the actual impact to supply, production levels, and costs from global supply chain logistics challenges, the stability of foreign exchange rates, the ability to hedge exposures to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates, the availability of borrowings to be drawn down under, and the utilization, of one or more of our senior credit agreements, our available liquidity from cash and cash equivalents, undrawn amounts on our revolving credit facility, the balance available under our receivable purchase facility, the assumption that our cash flows from operations and continued access to debt funding will be sufficient to meet financial requirements in the foreseeable future, access to expected capital resources within anticipated timeframes, no material financial, operational or competitive consequences from changes in regulations affecting our business, our ability to retain and attract new business, our ability to effectively execute and retire the remaining Legacy Contracts while managing the risks associated therewith, our ability to defend our position in the dispute with the buyer of the CAE Healthcare business, and the realization of the expected strategic, financial and other benefits of the increase of our ownership stake in SIMCOM Aviation Training in the timeframe anticipated. Air travel is a major driver for CAE's business and management relies on analysis from the International Air Transport Association (IATA) to inform its assumptions about the rate and profile of growth in its key civil aviation market.

We caution that the disclosed list of risk factors is not exhaustive and other factors could also adversely affect our results. Non-IFRS and other financial measures This press release includes non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios, capital management measures and supplementary financial measures. These measures are not standardized financial measures prescribed under IFRS and therefore should not be confused with, or used as an alternative for, performance measures calculated according to IFRS. Furthermore, these measures should not be compared with similarly titled measures provided or used by other issuers. Management believes that these measures provide additional insight into our operating performance and trends and facilitate comparisons across reporting periods. Certain non-IFRS and other financial measures are provided on a consolidated basis and separately for each of our segments (Civil Aviation and Defense and Security) since we analyze their results and performance separately. Reconciliations and calculations of non-IFRS measures to the most directly comparable measures under IFRS are also set forth below in the section "Reconciliations and Calculations of this press release". Performance measures Gross profit margin (or gross profit as a % of revenue) Gross profit margin is a supplementary financial measure calculated by dividing our gross profit by revenue for a given period. We track it because we believe it provides an enhanced understanding of our operating performance and facilitates the comparison across reporting periods. Operating income margin (or operating income as a % of revenue) Operating income margin is a supplementary financial measure calculated by dividing our operating income by revenue for a given period. We track it because we believe it provides an enhanced understanding of our operating performance and facilitates the comparison across reporting periods. Adjusted segment operating income or loss Adjusted segment operating income or loss is a non-IFRS financial measure that gives us an indication of the profitability of each segment because it does not include the impact of any items not specifically related to the segment's performance. We calculate adjusted segment operating income by taking operating income and adjusting for restructuring, integration and acquisition costs, and impairments and other gains and losses arising from significant strategic transactions or specific events. Impairments and other gains and losses arising from significant strategic transactions or specific events consist of the executive management transition costs (as described in Section 5.2 of the MD&A for the period ended June 30, 2025 and Section 5.6 of the MD&A for the year ended March 31, 2025), the gain on fair value remeasurement of SIMCOM (as described in Note 7 of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025), the shareholder matters (as described in Section 5.5 of the MD&A for the year ended March 31, 2025), the impairment of goodwill (as described in Note 14 of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2024) and the impairment of technology and other non-financial assets (as described in Note 5 of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2024). We track adjusted segment operating income because we believe it provides an enhanced understanding of our operating performance and facilitates the comparison across reporting periods. Adjusted segment operating income on a consolidated basis is a total of segments measure since it is the profitability measure employed by management for making decisions about allocating resources to segments and assessing segment performance. Adjusted segment operating income margin (or adjusted segment operating income as a % of revenue) Adjusted segment operating income margin is a non-IFRS ratio calculated by dividing our adjusted segment operating income by revenue for a given period. We track it because we believe it provides an enhanced understanding of our operating performance and facilitates the comparison across reporting periods. Adjusted effective tax rate Adjusted effective tax rate is a supplementary financial measure that represents the effective tax rate on adjusted net income or loss. It is calculated by dividing our income tax expense by our earnings before income taxes, adjusting for the same items used to determine adjusted net income or loss. We track it because we believe it provides an enhanced understanding of the impact of changes in income tax rates and the mix of income on our operating performance and facilitates the comparison across reporting periods. Adjusted net income or loss Adjusted net income or loss is a non-IFRS financial measure we use as an alternate view of our operating results. We calculate it by taking our net income attributable to equity holders of the Company from continuing operations and adjusting for restructuring, integration and acquisition costs, and impairments and other gains and losses arising from significant strategic transactions or specific events, after tax, as well as significant one-time tax items. Impairments and other gains and losses arising from significant strategic transactions or specific events consist of the executive management transition costs (as described in Section 5.2 of the MD&A for the period ended June 30, 2025 and Section 5.6 of the MD&A for the year ended March 31, 2025), the gain on fair value remeasurement of SIMCOM (as described in Note 7 of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025), the shareholder matters (as described in Section 5.5 of the MD&A for the year ended March 31, 2025), , the impairment of goodwill (as described in Note 14 of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2024), and the impairment of technology and other non-financial assets (as described in Note 5 of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2024) . We track adjusted net income because we believe it provides an enhanced understanding of our operating performance and facilitates the comparison across reporting periods. Adjusted earnings or loss per share (EPS) Adjusted earnings or loss per share is a non-IFRS ratio calculated by dividing adjusted net income or loss by the weighted average number of diluted shares. We track it because we believe it provides an enhanced understanding of our operating performance on a per share basis and facilitates the comparison across reporting periods. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure which comprises net income or loss from continuing operations before income taxes, finance expense – net, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts for restructuring, integration and acquisition costs, and impairments and other gains and losses arising from significant strategic transactions or specific events. Impairments and other gains and losses arising from significant strategic transactions or specific events consist of the executive management transition costs (as described in Section 5.2 of the MD&A for the period ended June 30, 2025 and Section 5.6 of the MD&A for the year ended March 31, 2025), the gain on fair value remeasurement of SIMCOM (as described in Note 7 of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025), the shareholder matters (as described in Section 5.5 of the MD&A for the year ended March 31, 2025), the impairment of goodwill (as described in Note 14 of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2024) and the impairment of technology and other non-financial assets (as described in Note 5 of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2024). We use EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our operating performance, by eliminating the impact of non-operational or non-cash items. Free cash flow Free cash flow is a non-IFRS financial measure that shows us how much cash we have available to invest in growth opportunities, repay debt and meet ongoing financial obligations. We use it as an indicator of our financial strength and liquidity. We calculate it by taking the net cash generated by our continuing operating activities, subtracting maintenance capital expenditures, intangible assets expenditures excluding capitalized development costs, other investing activities not related to growth and dividends paid and adding proceeds from the disposal of property, plant and equipment, dividends received from equity accounted investees and proceeds, net of payments, from equity accounted investees. Liquidity and capital structure measures Adjusted return on capital employed (ROCE) Adjusted ROCE is a non-IFRS ratio calculated over a rolling four-quarter period by taking net income attributable to equity holders of the Company from continuing operations adjusting for net finance expense, after tax, restructuring, integration and acquisition costs, and impairments and other gains and losses arising from significant strategic transactions or specific events divided by the average capital employed from continuing operations. Impairments and other gains and losses arising from significant strategic transactions or specific events consist of the executive management transition costs (as described in Section 5.2 of the MD&A for the period ended June 30, 2025 and Section 5.6 of the MD&A for the year ended March 31, 2025), the gain on fair value remeasurement of SIMCOM (as described in Note 7 of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025), the shareholder matters (as described in Section 5.5 of the MD&A for the year ended March 31, 2025), the impairment of goodwill (as described in Note 14 of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2024) and the impairment of technology and other non-financial assets (as described in Note 5 of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2024). We use adjusted ROCE to evaluate the profitability of our invested capital. Net debt Net debt is a capital management measure we use to monitor how much debt we have after taking into account cash and cash equivalents. We use it as an indicator of our overall financial position, and calculate it by taking our total long-term debt, including the current portion of long-term debt, and subtracting cash and cash equivalents. Net debt-to-EBITDA and net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA Net debt-to-EBITDA and net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA are non-IFRS ratios calculated as net debt divided by the last twelve months EBITDA (or adjusted EBITDA). We use net debt-to-EBITDA and net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA because they reflect our ability to service our debt obligations. Maintenance and growth capital expenditures Maintenance capital expenditure is a supplementary financial measure we use to calculate the investment needed to sustain the current level of economic activity. Growth capital expenditure is a supplementary financial measure we use to calculate the investment needed to increase the current level of economic activity. The sum of maintenance capital expenditures and growth capital expenditures represents our total property, plant and equipment expenditures. Growth measures Adjusted order intake Adjusted order intake is a supplementary financial measure that represents the expected value of orders we have received: For the Civil Aviation segment, we consider an item part of our adjusted order intake when we have a legally binding commercial agreement with a client that includes enough detail about each party's obligations to form the basis for a contract. Additionally, expected future revenues from customers under short-term and long-term training contracts are included when these customers commit to pay us training fees, or when we reasonably expect the revenue to be generated; For the Defense and Security segment, we consider an item part of our adjusted order intake when we have a legally binding commercial agreement with a client that includes enough detail about each party's obligations to form the basis for a contract. Defense and Security contracts are usually executed over a long-term period but some of them must be renewed each year. For this segment, we only include a contract item in adjusted order intake when the customer has authorized the contract item and has received funding for it. Adjusted backlog Adjusted backlog is a supplementary financial measure that represents expected future revenues and includes obligated backlog, joint venture backlog and unfunded backlog and options: Obligated backlog represents the value of our adjusted order intake not yet executed and is calculated by adding the adjusted order intake of the current period to the balance of the obligated backlog at the end of the previous fiscal year, subtracting the revenue recognized in the current period and adding or subtracting backlog adjustments. If the amount of an order already recognized in a previous fiscal year is modified, the backlog is revised through adjustments; Joint venture backlog is obligated backlog that represents the expected value of our share of orders that our joint ventures have received but have not yet executed. Joint venture backlog is determined on the same basis as obligated backlog described above, but excludes any portion of orders that have been directly subcontracted to a CAE subsidiary, which are already reflected in the determination of obligated backlog; Unfunded backlog represents legally binding Defense and Security orders with the U.S. government that we have received but have not yet executed and for which funding authorization has not yet been obtained. The uncertainty relates to the timing of the funding authorization, which is influenced by the government's budget cycle, based on a September year-end. Options are included in adjusted backlog when there is a high probability of being exercised, which we define as at least 80% probable, but multi-award indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (ID/IQ) contracts are excluded. When an option is exercised, it is considered adjusted order intake in that period, and it is removed from unfunded backlog and options. Book-to-sales ratio The book-to-sales ratio is a supplementary financial measure calculated by dividing adjusted order intake by revenue in a given period. We use it to monitor the level of future growth of the business over time. Supplementary non-financial information definitions Full-flight simulators (FFSs) in CAE's network A FFS is a full-size replica of a specific make, model and series of an aircraft cockpit, including a motion system. In our count of FFSs in the network, we generally only include FFSs that are of the highest fidelity and do not include any fixed based training devices, or other lower-level devices, as these are typically used in addition to FFSs in the same approved training programs. Simulator equivalent unit (SEU) SEU is a measure we use to show the total average number of FFSs available to generate earnings during the period. For example, in the case of a 50/50 flight training joint venture, we will report only 50% of the FFSs under this joint venture as a SEU. If a FFS is being powered down and relocated, it will not be included as a SEU until the FFS is re-installed and available to generate earnings. Utilization rate Utilization rate is a measure we use to assess the performance of our Civil simulator training network. While utilization rate does not perfectly correlate to revenue recognized, we track it, together with other measures, because we believe it is an indicator of our operating performance. We calculate it by taking the number of training hours sold on our simulators during the period divided by the practical training capacity available for the same period.

Vontier (VNT) Stock Trades Up, Here Is Why
What Happened? Shares of electronic equipment provider Vontier (NYSE:VNT) jumped 3.3% in the afternoon session after its subsidiary Teletrac Navman announced it is deploying next-generation AI-enabled Smart Dashcams to boost safety for the Canal & River Trust's fleet. The deployment of these AI-enabled Smart Dashcams is for the Canal & River Trust, a charity responsible for managing waterways in England and Wales. This initiative is designed to enhance safety and driver wellbeing through investments in new technology. The news builds on recent positive momentum for the company, which reported strong second-quarter results in late July, beating analyst estimates and raising its full-year earnings guidance. This solid performance prompted several analysts to upgrade the stock or raise their price targets in early August, contributing to a consensus "Moderate Buy" rating from Wall Street, signaling growing confidence in Vontier's business trajectory. After the initial pop the shares cooled down to $41.82, up 3.6% from previous close. Is now the time to buy Vontier? Access our full analysis report here, it's free. What Is The Market Telling Us Vontier's shares are not very volatile and have only had 5 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today's move indicates the market considers this news meaningful, although it might not be something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business. Vontier is up 16% since the beginning of the year, and at $41.82 per share, has set a new 52-week high. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Vontier's shares at the IPO in September 2020 would now be looking at an investment worth $1,230. Here at StockStory, we certainly understand the potential of thematic investing. Diverse winners from Microsoft (MSFT) to Alphabet (GOOG), Coca-Cola (KO) to Monster Beverage (MNST) could all have been identified as promising growth stories with a megatrend driving the growth. So, in that spirit, we've identified a relatively under-the-radar profitable growth stock benefiting from the rise of AI, available to you FREE via this link. Sign in to access your portfolio

Why Resideo (REZI) Stock Is Trading Up Today
What Happened? Shares of home automation and security solutions provider Resideo Technologies (NYSE:REZI) jumped 12.9% in the afternoon session after an upgrade from Morgan Stanley, which raised its rating on the stock to Overweight from Equal-Weight. The investment bank boosted its price target to $35 from a previous $24. The upgrade was driven by several positive developments, including Resideo's strong second-quarter results, which surpassed the high end of guidance and marked the best organic revenue growth in 15 quarters. Additionally, analysts highlighted the recent cancellation of a "longstanding and complex" indemnification agreement with Honeywell. This move is seen as removing a significant structural barrier for investors and creating a clearer path to what Morgan Stanley estimates could be approximately $3 in earnings power. The company's plan to separate its ADI Global distribution business in 2026 was also noted as a potential catalyst for unlocking shareholder value. Is now the time to buy Resideo? Access our full analysis report here, it's free. What Is The Market Telling Us Resideo's shares are quite volatile and have had 17 moves greater than 5% over the last year. But moves this big are rare even for Resideo and indicate this news significantly impacted the market's perception of the business. The previous big move we wrote about was 6 days ago when the stock gained 7.5% on the news that the company reported record second-quarter financial results that beat analyst expectations and raised its full-year guidance. The company posted record revenue of $1.94 billion, a 22% increase from the previous year, and adjusted earnings per share of $0.66. These figures surpassed Wall Street's forecasts. While Resideo recorded a net loss of $825 million, this resulted from a one-time expense to end an agreement with Honeywell. Investors appeared to focus on the strong operational performance, as both its Products and Solutions and ADI segments achieved organic revenue growth. In a sign of confidence, the company also lifted its full-year 2025 financial outlook and announced plans to spin off its ADI business segment. Resideo is up 37% since the beginning of the year, and at $31.21 per share, has set a new 52-week high. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Resideo's shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $2,255. Here at StockStory, we certainly understand the potential of thematic investing. Diverse winners from Microsoft (MSFT) to Alphabet (GOOG), Coca-Cola (KO) to Monster Beverage (MNST) could all have been identified as promising growth stories with a megatrend driving the growth.
