Reconciliation of net earnings to Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net earnings, adjusted to exclude: (i) income tax; (ii) other income; (iii) interest expense; (iv) loss on disposal of operations; (v) depreciation and amortization, including amortization of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”); (vi) gains attributable to MSRs; (vii) acquisition -related items (including contingent acquisition consideration fair value adjustments, contingent acquisition consideration -related compensation expense and transaction costs); (viii) restructuring, optimization and integration costs and (ix) stock -based compensation expense, including related to the CEO’s performance -based l ong-term incentive plan (“LTIP”). We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our own operating performance and our ability to service debt, as well as an integral part of our planning and reporting systems. Additionally, we use this measure in conjunction with dis counted cash flow models to determine the Company’s overall enterprise valuation and to evaluate acquisition targets. We present Adjusted
Page 11
Page 11 of 13 EBITDA as a supplemental measure because we believe such measure is useful to investors as a reasonable indicator of operating performance because of the low capital intensity of the Company’s service operations. We believe this measure is a financial metric used by many investors to compare companies, especially in the services industry. This measure is not a recognized measure of financial performance of the consolidated Company under GAAP in the United States, and should not be considered as a substitute for operating earnings, net earnings or cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our metho d of calculating Adjusted EBITDA may differ from other issuers and accordingly, this meas ure may not be comparable to measures used by other issuers. A reconciliation of net earnings to Adjusted EBITDA appears below. Three months ended Nine months ended September 30 September 30 (in thousands of US$) 2026 2025 2026 2025 Net earnings $ 51,151 $ 65,134 $ 111,146 $ 138,023 Income tax 35,961 19,120 71,060 49,076 Other income, including equity earnings from non-consolidated investments (4,228) (2,270) (15,160) (12,391) Interest expense, net 17,872 22,700 67,157 60,763 Operating earnings 100,756 104,684 234,203 235,471 Loss on disposal of operations 403 406 1,734 406 Depreciation and amortization 78,969 64,405 218,693 189,493 Gains attributable to MSRs (7,045) (12,272) (32,234) (26,766) Equity earnings from non-consolidated investments 3,833 2,134 15,268 9,186 Acquisition-related items 21,864 (1,150) 64,604 24,290 Restructuring, optimization and integration costs 10,183 14,651 26,324 21,226 Stock-based compensation expense 9,837 18,257 20,350 34,062 Adjusted EBITDA $ 218,800 $ 191,115 $ 548,942 $ 487,368 3. Reconciliation of net earnings and diluted net earnings per common share to adjusted net earnings and Adjusted EPS Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted net earnings per share adjusted for the effect, after income tax, of: (i) the non-controlling interest redemption increment; (ii) loss on disposal of operations; (iii) amortization expense related to intangible assets recognized in connection with acquisitions and MSRs; (iv) gains attributable to MSRs; (v) acquisition-related items; (vi) restructuring, optimization and integration costs and (vii) stock-based compensation expense, including related to the CEO’s LTIP. We believe this measure is useful to investors because it provides a supplemental way to understand the underlying operating performance of the Company and enhances the comparability of operating results from period to period. Adjusted EPS is not a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as a substitute for diluted net earnings per share from operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our method of calculating this non -GAAP measure may differ from other issuers and, accordingly, this measure may not be comparable to measures used by other issuers. A reconciliation of net earnings to adjusted net earnings and of diluted net earnings per share to Adjusted EPS appears below.

Reconciliation of net cash flow from operations to free cash flow Free cash flow is defined as net cash flow from operating activities plus contingent acquisition consideration paid, less pur chases of fixed assets, plus cash collections on AR Facility deferred purchase price less distributions to non-controlling interests. We use free cash flow as a measure to evaluate and monitor operating performance as well as our ability to service debt, fund acquisitions and pay dividends to shareholders. We present free cash flow as a s upplemental measure because we believe this measure is a financial metric used by many investors to compare valuation and liquidity measures across companies, especially in the services industry. This measure is not a recognized measure of financial performance under GAAP in the United States, and should not be considered as a substitute for operating earnings, net earnings or cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our method of calculating free cash flow may differ from other issuers and accordingly, this measure may not be comparable to measures used by other issuers. A reconciliation of net cash flow from operating activities to free cash flow appears below.

Local currency revenue and Adjusted EBITDA growth rate and internal revenue growth rate measures Percentage revenue and Adjusted EBITDA variances presented on a local currency basis are calculated by translating the curren t period results of our non -US dollar denominated operations to US dollars using the foreign currency exchange rates from the periods against which the current period results are being compared. Internal growth, presented as percentage revenue variance, is calculated assuming no impact from acquired entities in the current and prior periods. Revenue from acquired entities, including any foreign exchange impacts, are treated as acquisition growth until the respective anniversaries of the acquisitions. We believe that these revenue growth rate methodologies provide a framework for assessing the Company’s performance and operations

Page 13 of 13 excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and acquisitions. Since these revenue growth rate measur es are not calculated under GAAP, they may not be comparable to similar measures used by other issuers. 6. Assets under management We use the term assets under management (“AUM”) as a measure of the scale of our Investment Management operations. AUM is defined as the gross market value of operating assets and the projected gross cost of development assets of the funds, partnerships and accounts to which we provide management and advisory services, including capital that such funds, partnerships and accounts have the right to call from investors pursuant to capital commitments. Our definition of AUM may differ from those used by other issuers and as such may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other issuers. 7. Fee paying assets under management We use the term fee paying assets under management (“FPAUM”) to represent only the AUM on which the Company is entitled to receive management fees. We believe this measure is useful in providing additional insight into the capital base upon which t he Company earns management fees. Our definition of FPAUM may differ from those used by other issuers and as such may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other issuers. 8. Adjusted EBITDA from resilient revenue percentage Adjusted EBITDA from resilient revenue percentage is computed on a trailing twelve -month basis and represents the proportion of Adjusted EBITDA (note 2) that is derived from Engineering, Outsourcing and Investment Management service lines. All these service lines represent medium to long -term duration revenue streams that are either contractual or repeatable in nature. Adjusted EBITDA for this purpose is calculated in the same manner as for our debt agreement covenant calculation purposes, incorporating the expected full year impact of business acquisitions and dispositions.
