Previous report

The following factors had a significant impact on the comparability of our results of operations between the periods presented and may affect the comparability of our results of operations in future periods:

•In the second quarter of 2024, we recognized a substantial goodwill impairment.

Previous report

•In April 2024, we completed the sale of our Valipat product group within our IP segment.

Previous report

Subscription organic growth was driven by new sales and price increases, while the subscription disposals decrease was primarily attributed to the ScholarOne divestiture and product group wind-downs within LS&H. The re-occurring organic decline was primarily due to lower IP volumes and sales. The transactional organic decline was also primarily due to lower IP activity, while the transactional disposal increase was primarily due to higher transactional book sales in A&G wind-down products.

Previous report

A&G segment revenues decreased primarily due to the ScholarOne divestiture and product group wind-downs, partially offset by subscription organic growth driven by new sales, improved retention, and price increases. IP segment revenues decreased primarily due to the Valipat divestiture and lower re-occurring and transactional volumes. LS&H segment revenues decreased primarily due to product group wind-downs and lower subscription revenues.

Previous report

Americas revenues decreased primarily due to the ScholarOne divestiture and product group wind-downs within A&G and LS&H. EMEA revenues decreased primarily due to the Valipat and ScholarOne product group divestitures and product group wind-downs within A&G. APAC revenues decreased due to product group wind-downs within A&G, partially offset by A&G subscription growth.

Previous report

The 3.9% increase compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily driven by increased royalties associated with higher transactional book sales in A&G wind-down products. The 2.0% decrease compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily driven by the Valipat and ScholarOne divestitures, as well as product wind-downs.

Previous report

The increase of 8.2% and 5.0% compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, was primarily driven by increased investment in computer software assets.

Previous report

In the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to sustained declines in our share price, we performed an interim quantitative goodwill impairment assessment by comparing the estimated fair value to the carrying value for both of our segment reporting units carrying a goodwill balance. The carrying value of the LS&H segment reporting unit exceeded its fair value, resulting in a goodwill impairment charge of $302.8.

Previous report

In the third quarter of 2024, we recorded $13.8 of goodwill associated with a small acquisition within the IP segment reporting unit. We recorded an impairment to the goodwill because the IP reporting unit’s fair value was significantly below its carrying value based on the results of our second quarter 2024 goodwill impairment assessment.

Previous report

Charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 were primarily associated with the Value Creation Plan, which began in the fourth quarter of 2024 and is expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2025. Charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were primarily associated with the Segment Optimization Program, which was substantively completed in 2024. For further information regarding each of our restructuring initiatives and impairment impacts, see Note 8 - Restructuring and Other Impairments included in Part I, Item 1 of this quarterly report.

Previous report

The income tax provision of $34.9 and $23.3 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, was primarily due to the mix of jurisdictions in which pre-tax profits and losses were recognized and, in the prior year period, an offsetting $14.2 tax benefit associated with the goodwill impairment.

Previous report

The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to higher restructuring costs and related cash outflows compared to the prior year.

Previous report

The increase in net cash used for financing activities was driven by higher share repurchases and debt repayments in the current year, partially offset by the MCPS dividend payments made in the prior year.

Previous report

In May 2025, we entered into an incremental $500.0 tranche of term loans under our term loan facility. These term loans carry an interest rate margin of 325 basis points per annum in the case of loans bearing interest by reference to term SOFR and are not subject to amortization. We used the issuance proceeds to redeem $500.0 aggregate principal amount of our outstanding Senior Secured Notes due 2026, plus accrued and unpaid interest through the May 30, 2025 redemption date. To offset the incremental interest expense impact of this refinancing, we entered into foreign currency swap transactions to effectively convert approximately 80% of the new term loan debt from U.S. dollars to Euro, economically reducing the interest rate by approximately 2%. In September 2025, we redeemed an additional $100.0 of our outstanding Senior Secured Notes due 2026, plus accrued and unpaid interest through the September 30, 2025 redemption date.

Previous wording

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Free cash flow are financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“non-GAAP”).

Our annualized contract value (“ACV”), at any point in time, represents the annualized value of all active customer subscription-based license agreements for the next 12 months, assuming those coming up for renewal during the measurement period are renewed at their current price level. We use ACV as a key indicator of the health and trajectory of our core business as well as to assist in the evaluation of underlying sales execution and customer engagement trends. This metric is particularly important to us because the majority of our revenues are generated from subscription-based license agreements.

Current wording

Our ACV, at any point in time, represents the annualized value of all active customer subscription-based license agreements

Previous wording

Actual subscription revenues that we recognize during any 12-month period are likely to differ from ACV at the beginning of that period, sometimes significantly, due to subsequent changes in volume (including upgrades, downgrades, new business, and cancellations) and price, acquisitions and divestitures, and changes in FX.

Our organic ACV grew 1.6% compared to September 30, 2024, primarily driven by price increases. Our total ACV of $1,542.7 as of September 30, 2025 declined 3.4% compared to $1,596.4 as of September 30, 2024, primarily due to the ScholarOne divestiture in November 2024 and the wind-down of certain product groups beginning in the first quarter of 2025.

Previous wording

Our annual renewal rate, at any point in time, represents (a) the annualized value of all active customer subscription-based license agreements renewed during the measurement period (including the value of any product downgrades), divided by (b) the annualized value of all active subscription-based license agreements that were up for renewal during the measurement period. “Open renewals,” which we define as active customer subscription-based license agreements that were up for renewal during the measurement period but were neither renewed nor canceled, are excluded from both the numerator and denominator of the calculation. Additionally, the impact from product downgrades upon renewal is reflected in the annual renewal calculation, but the impact from product upgrades is not, because upgrades reflect the purchase of additional products and services. The impact of upgrades, new subscriptions, and product price increases is reflected in ACV, but not in annual renewal rates.

We use Adjusted EBITDA as a basis for evaluating our ongoing operating performance, and we believe it is useful for investors to understand the underlying trends of our operations. Adjusted EBITDA represents Net income (loss) before the Provision (benefit) for income taxes, Depreciation and amortization, and Interest expense, net, adjusted to exclude share-based compensation, impairments, restructuring expenses, the impact of certain non-cash fair value adjustments on financial instruments, acquisition and/or disposal-related transaction costs, unrealized foreign currency gains/losses, legal settlements, and other items that are included in Net income (loss) for the period that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by Revenues.

Previous wording

Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by any of the adjusted items, or that our projections and estimates will be realized in their entirety or at all. In addition, because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of liquidity or discretionary cash available to us to fund our cash needs, including investing in the growth of our business and meeting our obligations. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to Net income (loss) and Net income (loss) margin, refer to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin (non-GAAP measures) below.

We use Free cash flow in our operational and financial decision-making and believe it is useful to investors because similar measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors, ratings agencies, and other interested parties to measure the ability of a company to service its debt. Our presentation of Free cash flow should not be considered as a measure of liquidity or discretionary cash available to us to fund our cash needs, including investing in the growth of our business and meeting our obligations. We define Free cash flow as Net cash provided by operating activities less Capital expenditures.
