On January 20, 2026, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of 365Talents, a privately held AI-powered skills intelligence and workforce analytics company (société par actions simplifiée) based in France.

Total purchase consideration of $60,814 , consisting of: (i) cash paid on closing of $54,326 ; and (ii) a cash holdback amount of $2,688 (up to a maximum of $2,736 ) which will be determined and paid during fiscal 2026.

Refer to note 12 for performance share units (“PSUs”) that were also granted to certain key employees of 365Talents as part of the acquisition.
During the three months ended September 30, 2026 the Company recognized an adjustment to the initial fair value of the identified intangible assets and contingent consideration. The adjustment reflects additional information obtained during the measurement period about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date.
Transaction costs relating to due diligence fees, legal costs, accounting fees, advisory fees and other professional fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 amounting to $93 and $977 , respectively, as compared to nil
As at September 30, 2026, the purchase price allocation has not been finalized. The fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been determined on a provisional basis, as the Company has not yet completed its assessment of the fair values of certain assets and liabilities, including the fair value of acquired intangible assets, and the related tax impact. The provisional amounts recognized are subject to adjustment within the measurement period, which shall not exceed one year from the acquisition date, in accordance with IFRS 3 Business Combinations.

Credit facility
On May 8, 2025, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Original Credit Agreement”) with National Bank of Canada (“NBC”) providing for a $50,000 secured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) with an accordion feature that allowed for the expansion of the Facility by up to an aggregate maximum principal amount of $50,000 , upon request by Docebo, subject to review and approval by NBC. The Facility, which was secured against all assets of the Company and a pledge of certain equity interests in its subsidiaries, was available for general corporate purposes, acquisitions, and investments, subject to certain limitations.
The undrawn portion of the Facility was subject to a standby fee whereby the rate varied depending on the Company’s Net Debt to EBITDA Ratio (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement). The Facility had a term of three years . The Facility included certain covenants that required the Company to maintain certain financial ratios and meet certain non-financial requirements.
At the Company's election, amounts drawn on the Facility bore interest based on the Canadian prime rate, U.S. dollar base rate, the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR"), or Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average ("CORRA") plus an applicable margin, with interest payable monthly for Canadian prime rate and U.S. dollar base

rate loans, at the end of each interest period for CORRA loans, and at the end of each interest period (and every three months if the interest period was longer than three months) for SOFR loans.
On January 14, 2026 the Company drew C$69,430 (approximately $50,000 ) from the Facility as a CORRA loan.
On February 10, 2026 the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with NBC as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto from time to time (the “Lenders”) which amends and restates the Original Credit Agreement and provides, among other things, an increase of $50,000 in the secured revolving credit facility such that the maximum amount available for the Company to borrow is $100,000 (the “Amended Facility”). The Amended Facility has a term of 3 years and bears interest at variable rates depending on certain financial ratios and metrics. The Amended Facility includes an accordion feature that allows for the expansion of the Amended Facility by up to an aggregate maximum principal amount of $50,000 . The accordion feature is available upon request by Docebo and is subject to acceptance by the Lenders or commitments by new financial institutions or commercial lenders in the case where the Lenders decline to increase their commitment in connection with the accordion request. The Amended Facility, which is secured against all assets of the Company and a pledge of certain equity interests in its subsidiaries, is available for general corporate purposes, acquisitions, and investments, subject to certain limitations.
On March 10, 2026 the Company drew $30,000 from the Amended Facility as a SOFR loan.
On June 1, 2026 the Company drew $10,000 from the Amended Facility as a SOFR loan.
On June 22, 2026 the Company signed the First Amending Agreement to the Amended Facility, which increased the Amended Facility by $50,000 to a total revolving credit facility of $150,000 (“First Amended Facility”).
As of September 30, 2026, Docebo was in compliance with all covenants and approximately $90,000 was outstanding under the First Amended Facility.

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from deposits with banks and outstanding receivables. The Company trades only with recognized, creditworthy third parties. Due to the Company’s diversified customer base, there is no particular concentration of credit risk related to the Company’s trade and other receivables. Trade and other receivables are monitored on an ongoing basis to ensure timely collection of amounts.
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, income taxes receivable, trade and other payables, and the Amended Facility approximate fair values due to the short-term nature of these items or being carried at fair value. The risk of material change in fair value is not considered to be significant. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments to manage this risk.
Contingent consideration is classified as a Level 3 financial instrument as the inputs are not observable and there is no market-based activity. The fair value of the contingent consideration has been calculated using discounted cash flows and was $3,800 as at the date of acquisition. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, there were no transfers of amounts between levels in the fair value hierarchy.

Forward-looking information may relate to our future financial outlook and anticipated events or results and may include information regarding our financial position, business strategy, macroeconomic conditions and global economic uncertainty, war and inflation, including actions of central banks to contain it, our business, growth strategies, addressable markets, budgets, operations, financial results, taxes, dividend policy, plans and objectives.

In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, intentions, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances contain forward-looking information. Statements containing forward-looking information are not historical facts but instead represent management’s expectations, estimates and projections regarding future events or circumstances.
This forward-looking information includes, but is not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s business; future financial position and business strategy; the learning management industry; our growth rates and growth strategies; addressable markets for our solutions; the achievement of advances in and expansion of our platform; expectations regarding our revenue and the revenue generation potential of our platform and other products; our business plans and strategies; use of artificial intelligence (“AI”) in our platform and its impact on the Company’s business; expectations regarding our future expenses; our expectations regarding our liquidity and capital resources, including the sufficiency of our cash and cash equivalents and funds available under our credit facility to meet our current and short-term growth requirements and our long-term strategic objectives; the expected timing and amount of holdback and contingent consideration payments in connection with our acquisitions; the expected timing of the integration of acquired businesses into our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting; our competitive position in our industry; and our expectations regarding a key OEM customer’s intentions to continue to reduce subscriptions for our solution. This forward-looking information is based on our opinions, estimates and assumptions in light of our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors that we currently believe are appropriate and reasonable in the circumstances. Despite a careful process to prepare and review the forward-

looking information, there can be no assurance that the underlying opinions, estimates and assumptions will prove to be correct. Certain assumptions include: our ability to build our market share and enter new markets and industry verticals; our ability to attract and retain key personnel; our ability to maintain and expand geographic scope; our ability to execute on our expansion plans, including the continued incorporation of AI into our platform; our ability to continue investing in infrastructure to support our growth; our ability to obtain and maintain existing financing on acceptable terms; our ability to execute on profitability initiatives; our ability to successfully integrate the companies we have acquired and to derive the benefits we expect from the acquisition thereof; currency exchange and interest rates; the impact of inflation and global macroeconomic conditions; the impact of competition; our ability to respond to the changes and trends in our industry or the global economy; and the changes in laws, rules, regulations, and global standards are material factors made in preparing forward-looking information and management’s expectations.
Forward-looking information is necessarily based on a number of opinions, estimates and assumptions that, while considered by the Company to be appropriate and reasonable as of the date of this MD&A, are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including but not limited to:
•the Company’s ability to execute its growth strategies;
•the impact of changing conditions in the global corporate e-learning market;
•increasing competition in the global corporate e-learning market in which the Company operates;
•fluctuations in currency exchange rates and volatility in financial markets;
•the Company’s ability to operate its business and effectively manage its growth under evolving macroeconomic conditions, such as high inflation and recessionary environments;
•fluctuations in the length and complexity of the sales cycle for our platform, especially for sales to larger enterprises;
•issues in the use of AI in our platform and potential resulting reputational harm or liability;
•changes in the attitudes, financial condition and demand of our target market;
•developments and changes in applicable laws and regulations; and
•such other factors discussed in greater detail under the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Information Form dated February 26, 2026 (“AIF”), which is available under our profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
If any of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if the opinions, estimates or assumptions underlying the forward-looking information prove incorrect, actual results or future events might vary materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking information. The opinions, estimates or assumptions referred to above and described in greater detail in “Summary of Factors Affecting our Performance” and in the “Risk Factors” section of our AIF should be considered carefully by prospective investors.
Although we have attempted to identify important risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other risk factors not presently known to us or that we presently believe are not material that could also cause actual results or future events to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking information. There can be no assurance that such information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information. No forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future results. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information, which speaks only as of the date made. The forward-looking information contained in this MD&A represents our expectations as of the date specified herein, and is subject to change after such date. However, we disclaim any intention or obligation or undertaking to update or revise any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required under applicable securities laws.

Overview
At Docebo, our mission is to redefine the way enterprises, including their internal and external workforces, partners and customers, learn by applying new technologies to the traditional corporate learning management system (“LMS”) market. Founded in 2005, Docebo is a powerful learning platform, built for the business of learning. Docebo helps organizations around the world deliver scalable, personalized learning to customers, partners, and employees, driving productivity, engagement, revenue, and growth. The Docebo Platform is stable and intuitive, with innovative technology for content generation, automation, and analytics, along with advanced AI capabilities. This enables businesses to create and manage content, effectively train diverse audiences, and measure the impact of their learning programs, all from a single platform.
Our platform is used by companies of all sizes, providing access to learners situated around the world in a variety of languages. Our customers range from Small and Medium Sized Businesses (“SMBs”) to large globally distributed enterprises in a wide variety of industries. We have registered offices in Toronto, Canada, Athens, Georgia (USA), Biassono, Italy, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, London, England, Paris, France, Lyon, France, Frankfurt, Germany, Hamburg, Germany and Melbourne, Australia. Our platform is sold primarily through a direct sales force located in several of these offices. We also have relationships with channel, service, technology and systems integrator partners around the world.
Docebo's learning offering encompasses the following capabilities and add-ons: (i) "Learning Management and Delivery", (ii) "Content Marketplace", (iii) "Learning Insights", (iv) "Learning Evaluation", (v) "Advanced Analytics", (vi) "Communities", (vii) "eCommerce", (viii) "Integrations", (ix) "Headless Learning", (x) "Creator and AI Functionalities", (xi) "Knowledge", and (xii) "Agents". Skills intelligence is provided through 365Talents, a Docebo company, which is offered as a separate SKU rather than as a learning add-on.
The Docebo Workforce Readiness Platform is a cloud-based solution that brings together skills intelligence and learning, connected by enterprise knowledge and powered by AI agents. It enables organizations to detect skill gaps, develop and validate workforce capability, and support performance in the flow of work across multiple internal, external, and blended audiences. Docebo's Content Marketplace allows learning administrators to access the industry's best off-the-shelf learning content and provide their learners with high-quality, predeveloped learning content. Learning administrators can partner with a Docebo Content specialist to help curate the right resources from our library of approximately 100,000+ courses from more than 250 top publishers, covering 250+ professional skills in 40+ languages.
The Insights module allows organizations to understand the results of their learning programs with data visualizations that are straightforward and actionable. With features like modern interactive dashboards for Super Admins and Power Users, it offers a centralized source for all learning analytics needs. Customers can swiftly build, discover, and share meaningful insights, enabling quick and impactful decision-making on learning performance based on a single, reliable source of truth.
The Learning Evaluation module empowers learning administrators to incorporate the learner's perspective into their analyses by facilitating the collection of feedback and sentiment analysis. This feedback enables organizations to demonstrate and enhance the effectiveness of their training programs while validating their investment in learning. Admin users gain insights into how learning influences employee experience and performance through a combination of pre-built and custom questionnaires, tailored evaluation processes, and relevant learning benchmarks across industries and geographies.
The Advanced Analytics Pack combines two essential tools for organizations ready to elevate their learning data and analytics. It offers seamless integration of learning data into any data ecosystem and Business Intelligence (BI) tool, allowing organizations to incorporate their learning and development data into a central database. This integration helps customers to understand how learning impacts their business and contributes to their goals. Additionally, it unlocks a powerful data visualization capability within the Docebo platform, equipping Learning and Development teams with the capability to create custom dashboards tailored to their specific needs. With advanced BI-style capability at their fingertips, teams can confidently make data-driven decisions.
3
The Communities module brings a dynamic social hub into the learning environment, enabling interactive learner communities and cohorts to become a central part of the learning experience. With features like Q&A, forums, private spaces, personalized member profiles, rich moderation tools, and 1:1 live messaging, the Communities module fosters a collaborative and engaging learning atmosphere. Designed to enhance both knowledge sharing and community interaction, especially for external audiences, Communities enriches the overall learning journey by driving collaboration and creating a strong sense of belonging among users.
The eCommerce module allows administrators to monetize their training programs, seamlessly managing and selling content — whether it is courses, subscriptions, or content licensing — all from a single platform. With centralized control over pricing, catalog management, memberships and discounts, admins can create public landing pages to boost content visibility and customize experience per customer or audience type. Learners benefit from flexible purchasing options, including Training Credits, coupons, and discounts, ensuring a smooth, personalized buying experience through secure transactions across multiple payment gateways.
Docebo Integrations allow organizations to connect Docebo with other business systems across their tech stack to improve the learner experience, drive efficiencies and scale learning programs. Connect with SSO, webinar tools, HR systems and more with off-the-shelf options or build and customize your own integrations and workflows for more unique requirements with our built-in iPaaS.
Headless Learning allows businesses to build learning experiences outside of the Docebo native UX in their own products or web environments so people can access learning where and when they need it, without having to switch between tools. Headless Learning provides users with customization capability through API access, configurable HTML elements and JavaScript injection.
Docebo continues to invest in AI-driven innovation across its platform to enhance learning outcomes and administrative efficiency. Docebo Roleplay delivers interactive, simulation-based learning experiences that reinforce knowledge, build learner confidence, and support on-the-job performance. The AI Assistant provides contextual guidance and supports administrative tasks directly within the Docebo platform. It also enables users to ask questions and retrieve relevant learning content through a conversational experience.
Docebo Creator enables organizations to design, scale and deploy high-quality learning content directly within the Docebo Workforce Readiness Platform. Powered by generative AI, Creator streamlines instructional design workflows by accelerating content development, localization and personalization, helping customers reduce time-to-content and improve the relevance of learning programs for different audiences.
Docebo Knowledge connects enterprise knowledge with learning content within the Docebo Workforce Readiness Platform, enabling employees to find relevant information through a unified search experience and AI-generated answers grounded in organizational content. Administrators can connect approved enterprise sources and organize information into curated collections, with access governed by source-system permissions and configured audience controls. By making enterprise knowledge accessible alongside learning content, Docebo Knowledge supports onboarding, employee self-service, and on-the-job performance.
Docebo Agents automate learning and enablement workflows across Docebo and connected systems through pre-built and custom AI agents. Pre-built agents support content authoring, Content Marketplace discovery, learner tutoring, and post-course reinforcement. AgentHub provides administrators with a no-code environment to create, configure, monitor, and govern agents, including their data sources, permitted actions, triggers, and approval requirements. These capabilities help organizations reduce manual administration and provide learners with contextual guidance and practice. Docebo Knowledge and Docebo Agents are learning add-ons and require Docebo Learn.
Additional modules may be purchased to address specific use cases and requirements, including, but not limited to: Docebo for Salesforce, Docebo Embed (OEM), Docebo Branded Mobile App Publisher, Docebo Extended Enterprise and Docebo for Microsoft Teams.

Docebo Embed (OEM) enables original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") to embed and resell the Docebo learning platform as part of their own software offerings, including human capital management, risk management and retail/hospitality software-as-a-service ("SaaS") products, reducing disjointed learning experiences, long development cycles and reliance on custom partner models.
Docebo Branded Mobile App Publisher allows organizations to create and distribute a fully branded version of Docebo's mobile learning application under their own name in Apple's App Store, the Google Play Store, or their internal Apple Enterprise Store. Docebo Extended Enterprise supports customer education, partner enablement, and retention by enabling organizations to train multiple external audiences from a single LMS instance. Lastly, Docebo for Microsoft Teams is designed to reduce friction to learning, support user adoption, and increase productivity by bringing learning directly into Microsoft Teams, where users in organizations that rely on this collaboration tool already spend a significant portion of their time.
We generate revenue primarily from the provision of access to our platform, which is typically provided on the basis of an annual subscription fee and prepaid on a quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis. We offer our customers the flexibility to choose annual or multi-year contract terms, with the majority of our enterprise customers choosing multi-year terms. This results in a relatively smooth revenue curve with good visibility into near-term revenue growth. We typically enter into subscription agreements with our customers, with pricing based on the number of active or registered users, with minimum user commitment levels, in a measured time period, and the number of modules requested by the customer. Our goal is to continue to grow revenues arising from our existing customer base as well as adding new subscription customers to our platform. Our business does not have significant seasonal attributes, although historically sales in the fourth quarter have tended to be slightly stronger than the first three. The Company operates on a global basis and for this reason has decided to report its consolidated financial results in U.S. dollars notwithstanding that the Company’s functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The Company does not currently hedge its exposure to currencies different than its functional currency.
The Company’s shares are listed under the symbol “DCBO” on both the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”), as of October 8, 2019, following the completion of its initial public offering in Canada and the Nasdaq Global Select Market, as of December 3, 2020, following the completion of its initial public offering in the United States.
Non-IFRS Measures and Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures
This MD&A makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures and ratios including key performance indicators used by management and typically used by our competitors in the SaaS industry. These measures and ratios are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures and ratios are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, these measures and ratios should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. These non-IFRS measures and ratios are used to provide investors with alternative measures of our operating performance and liquidity and thus highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures and ratios. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures and ratios, including SaaS industry metrics, in the evaluation of companies in the SaaS industry. Management also uses non-IFRS measures to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of executive compensation. The non-IFRS measures referred to in this MD&A include “Annual Recurring Revenue”, “Average Contract Value”, “Adjusted EBITDA”, “Adjusted Net Income”, “Adjusted Earnings per Share - Basic and Diluted”, “Working Capital” and “Free Cash Flow”. The non-IFRS ratios referred to in this MD&A include “Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue” and “Free Cash Flow as a percentage of total revenue”.

Key Performance Indicators
We recognize subscription revenues ratably over the term of the subscription period under the provisions of our agreements with customers. The terms of our agreements, combined with high customer retention rates, provide us with a significant degree of visibility into our near-term revenues. Management uses a number of metrics, including the ones identified below, to measure the Company’s performance and customer trends, which are used to prepare financial plans and shape future strategy. Our key performance indicators may be calculated in a manner different from similar key performance indicators used by other companies.
Annual Recurring Revenue. We define Annual Recurring Revenue as the annualized equivalent value of the subscription revenue of all existing contracts (including OEM contracts) as at the date being measured, excluding non-recurring revenues from implementation, support and maintenance fees. Our customers generally enter into annual or multi-year contracts which are non-cancellable or cancellable with penalty. Accordingly, our calculation of Annual Recurring Revenue assumes that customers will renew the contractual commitments on a periodic basis as those commitments come up for renewal. Subscription agreements may be subject to price increases upon renewal reflecting both inflationary increases and the additional value provided by our solutions. In addition to the expected increase in subscription revenue from price increases over time, existing customers may subscribe for additional features, learners or services during the term. We believe that this measure provides a fair real-time measure of performance in a subscription-based environment. Annual Recurring Revenue provides us with visibility for consistent and predictable growth to our cash flows. Our strong total revenue growth coupled with increasing Annual Recurring Revenue indicates the continued strength in the expansion of our business and will continue to be our focus on a go-forward basis.
Average Contract Value. Average Contract Value is calculated as total Annual Recurring Revenue divided by the number of active customers.
Annual Recurring Revenue and Average Contract Value as at September 30 were as follows:

| Annual Recurring Revenue (in millions of US dollars) | 261.5 | 235.6 | 25.9 | 11.0% | ||||||||||
| Average Contract Value (in thousands of US dollars) | 77.9 | 62.8 | 15.1 | 24.0% | ||||||||||
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income excluding net finance income, depreciation and amortization, income taxes, share-based compensation and related payroll taxes, other income, foreign exchange gains and losses, acquisition-related compensation, transaction related expenses and restructuring costs, if any. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue.
The IFRS measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA presented in our financial statements is net income.

Summary of Factors Affecting Our Performance
We believe that the growth and future success of our business depends on many factors, including those described below. While each of these factors presents significant opportunities for our business, they also pose important challenges, some of which are discussed below and in the “Risk Factors” section of the AIF.
Market adoption of cloud-based learning solutions may not grow as we expect, which may harm our business and results of operations and even if market demand for such solutions increases, the demand for our platform may not increase.
We believe our future success will depend in part on the growth, if any, in the demand for cloud-based learning management solutions, particularly enterprise-grade solutions. The widespread adoption of our platform depends not only on strong demand for new forms of learning management, but also for solutions delivered via a SaaS business model in particular. The market for cloud-based learning solutions is less mature than the market for in-person learning solutions, which many businesses currently use, and these businesses may be slow or unwilling to migrate from these legacy approaches. As such, it is difficult to predict customer demand for our platform, customer adoption and renewal, the rate at which existing customers expand their engagement with our platform, the size and growth rate of the market for our platform, the entry of competitive products into the market, or the success of existing competitive products. Furthermore, even if businesses want to adopt a cloud-based technology learning solution, it may take them a long time to fully transition to this type of learning solution or they could be delayed due to budget constraints, weakening economic conditions, or other factors. A portion of our customer base is comprised of SMBs. We may experience customer turnover in respect of such SMBs, which are more susceptible than larger businesses to changes in general economic conditions and other risks affecting their businesses, such as uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment, including with respect to inflationary pressures, changes in consumer spending, exchange rate fluctuations, and increases in interest rates. Many of these SMBs may be in the entrepreneurial stage of their development and there is no guarantee that their businesses will succeed. Some businesses may also have long-term contracts with existing vendors and cannot switch in the short term. Even if market demand for cloud-based technology learning solutions generally increases, we can make no assurance that adoption of our platform will also increase. If the market for cloud-based technology learning solutions does not grow as we expect or our platform does not achieve widespread adoption it could result in reduced customer spending, customer attrition, and decreased revenue, any of which would adversely affect our business and results of
8
operations. We further believe that a significant portion of our market capitalization is based on our revenue growth rate. If we are unable to continue growing our revenues, or if new revenues are offset by the rate at which existing customers cancel, do not renew or downgrade their recurring subscriptions (known in the industry as “churn”), our market capitalization may be negatively impacted, which could limit our access to capital, deter potential new investors, and harm our overall business and operations.
Natural disasters, public health crises, political crises, or other catastrophic or adverse events, including adverse and uncertain macroeconomic conditions may adversely affect our business, operating results or financial position.
Natural disasters, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, and other adverse weather and climate conditions; unforeseen public health crises, and other pandemics and epidemics; political crises, such as terrorist attacks, war, and other political instability; or other catastrophic events, have and could in the future disrupt our operations or the operations of one or more of our third-party providers and vendors.
Additionally, our business and results of operations have been, and may continue to be, impacted by recent adverse and uncertain macroeconomic conditions, including higher inflation, higher interest rates, and fluctuations or volatility in capital markets or foreign currency exchange rates, the collapse of financial institutions and related uncertainty regarding geopolitical events such as the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine as well as Israel and the surrounding area. In particular, we have experienced in certain instances, and may continue to experience, longer sales cycles or generally increased scrutiny on spending from existing and potential customers due to macroeconomic uncertainty, including the uncertainty resulting from tariffs imposed or threatened to be imposed by
the United States or other governments (including the Canadian government). We cannot be certain how long these uncertain macroeconomic conditions and the resulting effects on our industry, our business strategy, and customers will persist.
If we fail to retain key employees or to recruit qualified technical and sales personnel, our business could be harmed.
We believe that our success depends on the continued employment of our senior management and other key employees. In addition, because our future success is dependent on our ability to continue to enhance and introduce new platform features, we are heavily dependent on our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel with the requisite education, background, and industry experience. As we expand our business, our continued success will also depend, in part, on our ability to attract and retain qualified sales, marketing, and operational personnel capable of supporting a larger and more diverse customer base. We and our competitors continue to face significant turnover in our employee base. Qualified individuals, including, but not limited to, those skilled in AI, are in high demand in our industry, and we may incur significant costs to attract and retain them. The loss of the services of a significant number of our technology or sales personnel could be disruptive to our business development efforts or customer relationships. In addition, if any of our key employees join a competitor or decides to otherwise compete with us, we may experience a material disruption of our operations and business strategy, which may cause us to lose customers or increase operating expenses and may divert our attention as we seek to recruit replacements for the departed employees. Further, changes we make to our current and future work environments may not meet the needs or expectations of our employees or may be perceived as less favourable compared to other companies’ policies, which could negatively impact our ability to hire and retain qualified personnel. Our future work strategy and continued efforts related to employee onboarding, training and development and retention may not be successful. Further, our future work strategy is continuing to evolve and may not meet the needs of our existing and potential future employees and they may prefer work models offered by other companies.
If our customers do not expand their use of our platform beyond their current organizational engagements or renew their existing contracts with us, terminate their existing contracts with us or downgrade or scale back the scope of services under their existing contracts with us, our ability to grow our business and improve our results of operations may be adversely affected.
Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to increase the adoption of our platform by our existing customers and future customers. Many of our customers initially use our platform in specific groups or departments within their organization. In addition, our customers may initially use our platform for a specific use case. Our ability to
9
grow our business depends in part on our ability to persuade customers to expand their use of our platform to address additional use cases. Further, to continue to grow our business, it is important that our customers renew their subscriptions when existing contracts expire and that we expand our relationships with our existing customers. Our customers have no obligation to renew their subscriptions, and our customers may decide not to renew their subscriptions with a similar contract period, at the same prices and terms, with the same or a greater number of learners, or at all. In the past, some of our customers, including certain key customers, have elected not to renew or terminate their agreements with us or downgrade the scope of their services under their agreements with us, and it is difficult to accurately predict whether we will have future success in retaining customers or expanding our relationships with them. We offer our customers the flexibility to choose annual or multi-year contract terms. Although our contracts often contain cancellation penalties, the difficulty and costs associated with switching to a competitor may not be significant for certain customers. New customers joining our platform may also decide not to continue or renew their subscription for reasons outside of our control. We have experienced significant growth in the number of learners of our platform, but we do not know whether we will continue to achieve similar learner growth in the future, or whether learner growth could be offset by increased churn. Our ability to retain our customers and expand our deployments with them may decline or fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including our customers’ satisfaction with our platform, our customer support, our prices, the prices and features of competing solutions, reductions in our customers’ spending levels, insufficient learner adoption of our platform, and new feature releases. If our customers do not purchase additional subscriptions, do not renew, or terminate their existing subscriptions, renew on less favorable terms, or fail to continue to expand their engagement with our platform, our revenue may decline or grow less quickly than anticipated, which would harm our results of operations.
Regulatory requirements placed on our software and services could impose increased costs on us, delay or prevent our introduction of new products and services and impair the function or value of our existing products and services.
Our products and services are currently subject to various regulatory requirements, including laws, regulations and policies that govern the amount and type of taxes we are required to collect and remit, including with respect to internet transactions with customers in jurisdictions in which we do not have a physical presence. New income, sales, use or other tax laws, statutes, rules, regulations, or ordinances applicable to solutions provided over the internet could be enacted at any time by any local, regional, or national governmental authority, possibly with retroactive effect. Recent jurisprudence of the U.S. Supreme Court requires that online retailers collect sales and use taxes imposed by various U.S. states, even if the retailer has no physical presence in that state. We may also be subject to anti-spam laws, regulations, and policies. In Canada, the regulatory authority responsible for enforcement of Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation (“CASL”) has issued a bulletin that signals broad potential liability for electronic intermediaries (such as hosting providers and SaaS providers) for failing to take sufficient steps to stop third parties from using intermediary services and facilities to violate CASL, including prohibitions on sending electronic marketing messages or installing computer programs without consent.
Our business may become subject to increasing regulatory requirements, and as these requirements proliferate, we may be required to change or adapt our products and services to comply. Changing regulatory requirements might render our products and services obsolete or might block us from developing new products and services. This might in turn impose additional costs upon us to comply or to further develop our products and services. It might also make introduction of new products and services more costly or more time-consuming than we currently anticipate and could even prevent introduction by us of new products or services or cause the continuation of our existing products or services to become more costly. Accordingly, such regulatory requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
For example, the EU’s Regulation (EU) 2023/2854 (also known as the EU Data Act), which entered into force on September 12, 2025, imposes certain data and cloud service compatibility requirements to enable customer-initiated switching between service providers and a phased prohibition on charges for switching, with a complete prohibition becoming effective January 12, 2027. Additionally, in the EU, the Network and Information Security Directive regulates resilience and incident response capabilities of entities operating in a number of sectors, including the digital infrastructure sector (such as SaaS providers). Depending on how these frameworks are implemented and interpreted, we may have to adjust our business practices, service operations, and contractual arrangements to
10
comply with such obligations, and we could incur incremental compliance costs or be subject to supervisory actions or penalties for non-compliance.
Additionally, as with many innovations, machine learning and AI present additional risks and challenges that could affect their adoption and therefore our business. For example, the development of machine learning and AI present emerging governance and transparency issues, including with respect to ethics and human rights, and if we enable or offer solutions on this front that are controversial, due to their impact, or perceived impact, we may experience brand or reputational harm, competitive harm, or legal liability. New regulations or standards have been or may be adopted in the space of AI such as the Draft Bill C-27 (Canada), which includes the Artificial Intelligence and Data Act in Canada (June 2022), the Colorado Senate Bill 26-1894, which will go into effect on January 1, 2027, and the EU Regulation 2024/1689, which came into force on August 1, 2024 and includes a transitional period to be compliant with the law up to 24 months after its official publication. In the U.S., the National Institute for Standards and Technology released, on January 26, 2023, the non-binding AI Risk Management Framework in the design, development, use and evaluation of AI products, services, and systems. In addition, the Federal Trade Commission issued several publications to set forth ground rules for AI development and can use its existing authority under various existing consumer protection laws to expand AI enforcement. The growing focus on AI regulations and guidelines may increase the burden and cost of research and development in this area, including by causing us to incur significant costs in order to adapt certain components of our platform to the requirements for the use of AI systems, subjecting us to brand or reputational harm, competitive harm, legal liability, or regulatory penalties. It may also restrict our or our customers’ ability to fully utilize AI and machine learning technologies as a result of legal and regulatory restrictions on data governance, including data collection and processing. Also, our positions on social and ethical issues may impact our ability to attract or retain employees, customers, other users and overall affect our public perception. In particular, our brand and reputation are associated with our public commitments to sustainability, equality, inclusivity, accessibility, and ethical use, and any perceived changes in our dedication to these commitments could impact our relationships with potential and current customers and other users. We cannot determine the impact these emerging and future laws, regulations, and standards may have on our business. Such laws, regulations and standards are often subject to differing interpretations and may be inconsistent among jurisdictions, leading to uncertainty about how government or regulatory authorities will assess our AI practices.
Our sales to government entities are subject to a number of challenges and risks, which could negatively impact our business.
We sell to U.S. and Canadian government customers. Sales to such entities, whether direct or indirect, are subject to a number of challenges and risks. Selling to such entities can be highly competitive, expensive, and time-consuming, often requiring significant upfront time and expense without any assurance that these efforts will generate a sale. Contracting with certain federal government entities (or higher-tier contractors to such entities) requires additional compliance from us and our offerings, including with contractual requirements, regulations, and executive orders; compliance with such requirements may require us to change certain of our operations and involve significant effort and expense, which could harm our margins, business, financial condition, and results of operations. If we fail to achieve compliance with these standards and requirements, we may be disqualified from selling our offerings to such governmental entities, or be at a competitive disadvantage, which would harm our business, operating results, and financial condition. Government contracting requirements may also change and in doing so restrict our ability to sell into the government sector until we have complied with such requirements. Further, achieving and maintaining certain government certifications, such as U.S. Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (“FedRAMP”) authorization for certain of our product offerings, has and may continue to require significant upfront cost, time, and resources. FedRAMP is a U.S. government-wide program providing a standardized approach to security assessment, authorization and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services. As of May 22, 2025, our LearnGov platform achieved FedRAMP Moderate Authorization and listing on the FedRAMP Marketplace, which authorizes its use across U.S. federal agencies. Although we have achieved FedRAMP authorization, there can be no assurance that we will enter into contracts or secure commitment with a U.S. government agency sponsor or other agencies. If we are unable to do so or we fail to adhere to the rigorous security and privacy controls required to maintain FedRAMP authorization, we will not be able to sell our products, directly or indirectly, to certain federal government and other public sector customers as well as private sector customers that require such certification for their intended use cases and we may lose our FedRAMP authorization and position on the FedRAMP Marketplace, which could harm our margins, growth, business, financial condition, and results of operations. This may also harm
11
our competitive position against larger enterprises whose competitive offerings are FedRAMP authorized. Government demand and payment for our offerings have been and may in the future be negatively impacted by public sector budgetary cycles and funding authorizations, such as federal government shutdowns, in the United States or elsewhere, including the duration thereof, with funding reductions or delays adversely affecting public sector demand for our offering.
Further, governmental entities or their contractors may demand contract terms that differ from our standard arrangements and are less favorable than terms agreed with private sector customers. Such entities may have statutory, contractual or other legal rights to terminate contracts with us or our partners for convenience or for other reasons, some of which may be outside our control. Any termination for default/cause may adversely affect our ability to contract with other government customers as well as our reputation, business, financial condition, and results of operations. Governments and whistleblowers routinely investigate and audit government contractors’ administrative processes and compliance with applicable legal requirements. An unfavorable investigation or audit could result in the government refusing to continue buying our subscriptions, a reduction of revenue, suspension or debarment from government contracting, or fines or civil or criminal liability if the audit uncovers improper or illegal activities, including under the False Claims Act, which could adversely affect our results of operations and reputation.
Additionally, we generally contract with government customers through the indirect sales channel (i.e., resellers and distributors). Accordingly, a large majority of our revenue from public sector customers comes from a small number of distribution and resale partners. This concentration presents a risk of lost revenue in the case of a partner’s bankruptcy, a dispute, nonpayment, or other business disruptions, as well as a risk of loss of access to certain public sector customers if a partner shuts down for any reason, or is suspended or debarred from government contracting in the event of their noncompliance with their own contractual and regulatory requirements. The loss of a reseller with which we do a substantial amount of business, together with our inability to replace them, could negatively impact our business, growth, financial condition and results of operations.
Our sales cycles can be unpredictable, and our sales efforts require considerable time and expense. As a result, the timing of our billings and revenue are difficult to predict and may vary substantially from period to period, which may cause our results of operations to fluctuate significantly.
Our results of operations may fluctuate, in part, because of the resource intensive nature of our sales efforts, the length and variability of our sales cycle, and difficulty in adjusting our operating expenses in the short term. The length of our sales cycle, from identification of the opportunity to delivery of access to our platform, can vary from customer to customer, with sales to larger businesses typically taking longer to complete. In addition, as we increase our sales to larger businesses, we face longer more complex customer requirements, and substantial upfront sales costs. With larger businesses, the decision to subscribe to our platform frequently requires the approvals of multiple management personnel and more technical personnel than would be typical of a smaller organization and, accordingly, sales to larger businesses may require us to invest more time educating these potential customers. Purchases by larger businesses are also frequently subject to budget constraints and unplanned administrative, processing, and other delays, which means we may not be able to come to agreement on the terms of the sale to larger businesses. If there is a reduction in information technology spending, due to weak economic conditions or otherwise, it may take several months, or even several quarters, for marketing opportunities to materialize.
To the extent our competitors develop products that our prospective customers view as equivalent or superior to our platform, our average sales cycle may increase. Additionally, if a key sales member leaves our employment or if our primary point of contact at a customer or potential customers leaves his or her employment, our sales cycle may be further extended or customer opportunities may be lost. As a result of the buying behavior of enterprises and the efforts of our sales force and partners to meet or exceed their sales objectives by the end of each fiscal quarter, we may generate a substantial portion of billings towards the end of each fiscal quarter. If a customer’s decision to purchase our platform is delayed or if the implementation of our platform takes longer than originally anticipated, the date on which we may recognize revenues from these transactions may be delayed. The unpredictability of the timing of customer purchases, particularly large purchases, could cause our billings and revenue to vary from period to period or to fall below expected levels for a given period, which will adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
12
We may not receive significant revenue as a result of our current research and development efforts.
We reinvest a large percentage of our revenue in research and development, including AI. Our investment in our current research and development efforts may not provide a sufficient, timely return. We make and will continue to make significant investments in software research and development and related product opportunities. Investments in new technology and processes are inherently speculative. Commercial success depends on many factors including the degree of innovation of the products developed through our research and development efforts, sufficient support from our strategic partners, and effective distribution and marketing. Accelerated product introductions and short product life cycles require high levels of expenditures for research and development. These expenditures may materially adversely affect our operating results if they are not offset by revenue increases. We believe that we must continue to dedicate a significant amount of resources to our research and development efforts in order to maintain our competitive position. However, significant revenue from new product and service investments may not be achieved for a number of years, if at all. Moreover, new products and services may not be profitable.
We believe our long-term success depends in part on continuing to expand our international sales and operations and we are therefore subject to a number of risks associated with international sales and operations.
We intend to continue expanding our international operations. In order to maintain and expand our sales internationally, we need to hire and train experienced personnel to staff and manage our foreign operations. To the extent that we experience difficulties in recruiting, training, managing, and retaining international staff, and specifically sales and marketing personnel, we may experience difficulties in growing our international sales.
Additionally, our international sales are subject to a number of risks, including, but not limited to, the following:
•unexpected costs and errors in tailoring our products for individual markets, including translation into foreign languages and adaptation for local practices;
•difficulties in adapting to customer desires due to language and cultural differences;
•new and different sources of competition;
•increased financial accounting and reporting burdens and complexities;
•increased expenses associated with international sales and operations, including establishing and maintaining office space and equipment for our international operations;
•lack of familiarity and burdens of complying with foreign laws, legal standards, privacy standards, regulatory requirements, tariffs, and other barriers;
•greater difficulty in enforcing contracts and accounts receivable collection and longer collection periods;
•practical difficulties of enforcing intellectual property rights in countries with fluctuating laws and standards and reduced or varied protection for intellectual property rights in some countries;
•unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, taxes, trade laws, tariffs, export quotas, custom duties, or other trade restrictions, including the possibility of tariffs imposed by the U.S. federal government on the sale of Canadian software, which could have a direct or indirect impact on our international sales;
•limitations on technology infrastructure, which could limit our ability to migrate international operations to our existing systems, which could result in increased costs;
•difficulties in managing and staffing international operations and differing employer/employee relationships and local employment laws;
•fluctuations in exchange rates that may increase the volatility of our foreign-based revenue; and
13
•potentially adverse tax consequences, including the complexities of foreign value added tax (or other tax) systems and restrictions on the repatriation of earnings.
Additionally, operating in international markets also requires significant management attention and financial resources. We plan to continue investing substantial time and resources to expand our international operations, but we cannot be certain that these investments will produce desired levels of revenue or profitability. Furthermore, the imposition of tariffs by the United States or other governments (including the Canadian government) have had and could continue to have a significant impact on the industries in which our current and potential customers operate, which has resulted in increased scrutiny on spending from current and potential customers in the short term, particularly in light of the continued uncertainty regarding tariffs imposed by the United States and other governments (including the Canadian government), and could result in reduced customer spending and decreased revenue.
These factors and other factors could harm our ability to gain future international revenue and, consequently, materially affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We may face exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations which may affect certain of our key performance indicators and our results of operations.
Revenues and operating expenses outside of Canada are often denominated in local functional currencies. Additionally, as we expand our international operations, we report our financial results in US dollars. Therefore, fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies, including but not limited to the Canadian dollar, when translated into US dollars may have a significant impact on certain of our key performance indicators, including but not limited to our Annual Recurring Revenue, or otherwise affect our results of operations. We do not currently engage in currency hedging activities to limit the risk of unfavourable exchange rate fluctuations. In the future, we may use derivative instruments, such as foreign currency forward and option contracts, to hedge certain exposures to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The use of such hedging activities may not offset any or more than a portion of the adverse financial effects of unfavourable movements in foreign exchange rates over the limited time the hedges are in place. Moreover, the use of hedging instruments may introduce additional risks if we are unable to structure effective hedges with such instruments.
Our growth depends in part on the success of our strategic relationships with strategic partners as well as our ability to successfully integrate our platform with third party applications.
In addition to growing our direct sales channels, we intend to pursue additional relationships with strategic partners, which include OEMs, Value Added Resellers, system integrators and service partners. Identifying the proper strategic partners will be essential to this growth strategy. Negotiating and documenting relationships with appropriate strategic partners will require significant time and resources, as will integrating third-party content and technology. Our agreements with strategic partners may not prohibit them from working with our competitors or from offering competing services. Our competitors may be effective in providing incentives to strategic partners to favour their products or services or to prevent or reduce subscriptions to our solution, including through a simple integration. In addition, these distributors and providers may not perform as expected under our agreements, and we have had, and may in the future have, disagreements or disputes with such distributors and providers, which could negatively affect our brand and reputation. In addition, acquisitions of our strategic partners by our competitors or acquisitions by our strategic partners of our competitors could end our strategic relationship with the acquired or strategic partner and result in a decrease in the number of our current and potential customers. For example, in January 2024, an OEM partner that contributed approximately 9% of our 2024 revenue announced that it had acquired a competitive learning experience platform software provider. We took legal measures to enforce the terms of the agreement, and the parties amicably resolved the dispute on a confidential basis and agreed to dismiss the litigation. However, this OEM customer has decreased its use of our solution in favour of its acquired product for its end customers and we expect it will continue to do so in the near term. This has resulted in, and we expect will continue to result in, a reduction in subscriptions for our solutions and negative impact to our growth rate, which may harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. This negative impact is evident as this OEM partner represented 2.1% of Annual Recurring Revenue as at September 30, 2026, compared to 6.2% as at
14
September 30, 2025. If we are unsuccessful in establishing or maintaining our strategic partnerships, our ability to compete in the marketplace or to grow our revenue could be impaired and our operating results could suffer. Even if we are successful, there can be no assurance that these relationships will result in improved operating results. A global economic slowdown and other factors could also adversely affect the businesses of our strategic partners, and it is possible that they may not be able to devote the resources we expect to the relationship.
Risks and challenges with the use of AI in our platform, including flawed algorithms, insufficient data sets and biased information, may result in reputational harm or liability.
Our platform uses AI, and we expect to continue building AI into our platform in the future. We envision a future in which AI operates within our cloud-based platform to offer an efficient and effective e-learning solution for our customers. As with many disruptive innovations, AI presents risks and challenges that could affect its adoption, and therefore our business. AI algorithms may be flawed. Datasets may be insufficient or contain biased information. Inappropriate or controversial data practices by us or others could impair the acceptance, utility and effectiveness of AI solutions. Our management aims to mitigate these risks through the development, implementation and ongoing review of an AI governance policy that aligns with our values, adheres to legal and regulatory standards and promotes the safety and well-being of various internal and external stakeholders. Our Board oversees these efforts, taking into account ethical considerations, mitigating exposure to any related material risks and participating in relevant Board education. Nonetheless, these deficiencies could undermine the decisions, predictions, or analysis AI applications produce, subjecting us to competitive harm, legal liability, and brand or reputational harm. If we enable or offer AI solutions that are controversial because of their impact on human rights, privacy, employment, equity, accessibility or other social issues, we may experience brand or reputational harm. Also, decisions by our current suppliers of AI infrastructure, whether made voluntarily or compelled by external factors or regulatory requirements, to limit the provision of their services may result in our inability to procure alternatives from other suppliers in a timely and efficient manner or at all, and could adversely affect our ability to develop and operate AI systems for our customers.
Key Components of Results of Operations
Docebo has always been operated and managed as a single economic entity, notwithstanding the fact that it has operations in several different countries. There is one management team that directs the activities of all aspects of the Company and it is managed globally through global department heads. As a result, we believe that we have one operating segment, being the consolidated company. Over time, this may change as the Company grows and when this occurs we will reflect the change in our reporting practice.
Revenue
We generate revenue from the following two primary sources:
•Recurring Subscriptions to Our Learning Platform and Related Products. Our customers enter into agreements that provide for recurring subscription fees. The majority of the customer agreements currently being entered into have a term of one to three years and are non-cancellable or cancellable with penalty. Subscription revenue per contract will vary depending upon the particular products that each customer subscribes for, the number and type of learners intended to utilize the platform and the term of the agreement. Subscription revenue is typically recognized evenly over the enforceable term of a contract, commencing on the in-service date.
•Professional Services. Our customers generally require support in implementing our product and training their learners. This support can include system integration, application integration, learner training and any required process-change analysis. Normally, these services are purchased at the same time as the original customer agreement is completed and while they are usually delivered during the 60-180 days immediately following the effective date of the customer agreement, timing can vary. As a result, unlike the recognition of recurring subscription revenue, the recognition of professional service revenue can be recorded unevenly from period to period. When customer agreements are renewed, there is not typically a need for additional professional services so as overall revenue increases over time, the percentage of revenue that is generated
15
from professional services will decrease. Revenues derived from professional services are recognized over the term that the service is provided.
Our agreements generally do not contain any cancellation or refund provisions without penalty, other than in the case of our default.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue is comprised of costs related to provisioning and hosting our learning platform and related products, the delivery of professional services, and customer support. Significant expenses included in cost of revenue include employee salaries and benefits expenses, web hosting fees, third party service fees, and software costs.
Operating Expenses
Our primary operating expenses are as follows:
•General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist of employee salaries and benefits expenses for our finance, legal, administrative, human resources, and information technology and security teams. These costs also include consulting and professional service fees, transaction costs related to our acquisitions, software, travel, general office and administrative expenses, credit impairment losses, as well as public company costs including directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.
•Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses are comprised primarily of employee salaries and benefits expenses for our sales and marketing teams, amortization of contract acquisition costs, software, travel and advertising and marketing event costs. We intend to continue to grow our sales and marketing teams to support our growth strategy.
•Research and Development. Research and development expenses are comprised primarily of employee salaries and benefits for our product and innovation-related functions (net of tax credits), consulting and professional service fees, software, travel and web hosting fees, along with acquisition compensation related payments. Our research and development team is focused on both continuous improvement of our existing learning platform, as well as developing new product modules and features. As Docebo’s growth continues, we expect our research and development costs to increase.
•Share-based Compensation. Share-based compensation expenses are comprised of the value of stock options granted to employees expensed over the vesting period of the options, deferred share units (“DSUs”), restricted share units (“RSUs”), performance share units (“PSUs”), and shares issued pursuant to the Employee Share Purchase Plan. In addition, the Company’s board of directors may fix, from time to time, a portion of the total compensation (including an annual retainer) paid by the Company to a director in a calendar year for service on the Board and directors may elect to receive a portion of their total compensation (including cash retainer) in the form of DSUs.
•Foreign Exchange. Foreign exchange primarily relates to translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies into functional currencies at the foreign exchange rate applicable at the end of each period.
•Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense primarily relates to depreciation on property and equipment, and amortization of ROU assets and intangible assets. Property and equipment are comprised of furniture and office equipment, leasehold improvements and land and building. ROU assets are comprised of capitalized leases. Intangible assets are comprised of acquired intangible assets.
Other Expenses
•Finance Income, net. This includes costs related to interest income less interest on lease obligations, accretion of interest on contingent consideration and acquisition holdback payables, and bank fees and other expenses.
16
•Other Income, net. These costs are primarily comprised of rental income from subleasing office space.

Total revenue increased by $8.7 million or 14% for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2025 and increased by $25.0 million or 14% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was driven by revenue recognized from new customers, up-selling to existing customers, an increase in the Average Contract Value per customer from approximately $62.8 thousand as at September 30, 2025 to approximately $77.9 thousand as at September 30, 2026, and the acquisition of 365Talents. Average Contract Value is not a recognized measure under IFRS. See “Non-IFRS Measures and Ratios and Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures”.
Subscription revenue increased by $7.2 million or 12% for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2025 and increased by $20.4 million or 12% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase in both periods was driven by revenue recognized from new customers, existing customers and the acquisition of 365Talents.
Professional services revenue increased by $1.5 million or 42% for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2025 and increased by $4.5 million or 44% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase in both periods was primarily attributable to increased traction in the enterprise market, resulting in a greater number of implementations completed or in progress during fiscal 2026.

Research and development expenses decreased by $0.2 million or 2% for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in acquisition related compensation expense. Research and development expenses increased by $2.2 million or 6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. A significant portion of this increase was attributable to restructuring costs, offset by lower acquisition related compensation expense.
Our research and development expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 16.7% from 19.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively, and decreased to 19.6% from 21.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively.
Excluding the impact of these acquisition related compensation expenses, transaction and restructuring costs, research and development expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 16.3% from 17.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively, and decreased to 17.2% from 18.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively.
On an absolute dollar basis, we expect research and development expenses will continue to grow as the Company
maintains its efforts to keep its products at the leading edge of learning technology but will decrease as a percentage
of revenue over time.

Foreign exchange loss primarily relates to translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies into functional currencies at the foreign exchange rate applicable at the end of each period. The Company primarily holds cash and cash equivalents denominated in United States dollars. As a result of the movement of the United States dollar in comparison to the Canadian dollar (the Company’s functional currency), an unrealized foreign exchange loss was recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, which represents a significant portion of the movement during the periods.

Total Assets
September 30, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025
Total assets increased by $35.1 million from December 31, 2025 to September 30, 2026 primarily as a result of increases of $21.4 million and $39.0 million in intangible assets and goodwill due to assets acquired through the acquisitions of 365Talents and Zive. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $31.5 million as a result of purchases made under the NCIB and SIB (each as defined herein).
Total Liabilities
September 30, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025
Total liabilities increased by $114.8 million or 87% from December 31, 2025 to September 30, 2026. The movement in liabilities was primarily a result of an increase in borrowings of $88.2 million, an increase in the ASPP liability of $13.6 million, a $5.3 million increase in deferred revenue driven by the growth in sales, an increase in trade and other payables of $1.6 million due to timing of payments to vendors, and an increase in contingent consideration of $3.7 million.

Revenue
Our total quarterly revenue increased sequentially for all periods presented, which was primarily attributable to revenue from new customers, strong revenue retention and up-selling from existing customers, delivery of professional services to customers, and acquisitions in certain quarters. We cannot provide assurance that this pattern of sequential growth in revenue will continue.
Net Income (Loss)
Net income has generally improved or remained consistent for the periods presented as the Company continues to grow its revenue base while costs generally continue to decrease as a percentage of total revenue. The fluctuations in net income in certain periods have been primarily impacted by unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses due to movement in the US dollar relative to foreign currencies, recognition of deferred tax assets, and one-time restructuring charges and acquisition related compensation.
See “Results of Operations” in this MD&A for a more detailed discussion of the year-over-year changes in revenues and net income.
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Financing
Overview
The general objectives of our capital management strategy are to preserve our capacity to continue operating, provide benefits to our stakeholders and provide an adequate return on investment to our shareholders by selling our platform and services at a price that is commensurate with the level of operating risk we assume. We thus determine the total amount of capital required consistent with risk levels. This capital structure is adjusted on a timely basis depending on changes in the economic environment and risks of the underlying assets. We are not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
Working Capital
Our primary source of cash flow is revenue from operations. Our approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, to the extent possible, that we always have sufficient liquidity to meet our liabilities as they become due. We do so by monitoring cash flow and performing budget-to-actual analysis on a regular basis.
Working Capital as at September 30, 2026 and 2025 was $(34.2) million and $5.6 million, respectively. Working Capital is defined as current assets, excluding the current portion of the net investment in finance lease and contract costs, minus current liabilities, excluding borrowings, if any, and the current portion of contingent consideration and lease obligations. The decrease in Working Capital from September 30, 2025 to September 30, 2026 was driven by the use of cash and cash equivalents to purchase shares under the NCIB and SIB, and the acquisitions of 365Talents and Zive. Working Capital is not a recognized measure under IFRS. See “Non-IFRS Measures and Ratios and Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures”.
The following table represents the Company’s Working Capital position as at September 30, 2026 and 2025:

Our principal cash requirements are for Working Capital. Given our existing cash and cash equivalents, and the additional funds available through the First Amended Facility to manage short-term cash needs, we believe there is sufficient liquidity to meet our current and short-term growth requirements in addition to our long-term strategic objectives.
Cash Flows
The following table presents cash and cash equivalents as at September 30, 2026 and 2025, and cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Cash flows from operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2026 were $4.1 million compared to $5.3 million generated during the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was driven by the timing of payments to vendors and collections from customers.
Cash flows from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $25.9 million compared to $19.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase in cash generated from operating activities during the period was primarily attributable to the timing of collections from customers offset by severance payments made in connection with the Company’s restructuring efforts.
Cash Flows used in Investing Activities
Cash flows used in investing activities were $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
Cash flows used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $61.2 million compared to $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Cash outflows for investing activities relate primarily to the acquisitions of 365Talents and Zive.
24
Cash Flows used in Financing Activities
Cash flows used in financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2026 were $4.2 million compared to $3.3 million used in financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The increase in cash flows used in financing activities was driven by net interest paid in the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2025, as well as repurchase of common shares for cancellation under the SIB of $2.5 million.
Cash flows from financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $3.4 million compared to $46.1 million used for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The change in cash flows from financing activities was primarily driven by cash inflows of $89.0 million due to borrowings under the First Amended Facility, partially offset by outflows of $82.3 million due to repurchase of common shares for cancellation.
Free Cash Flow
Free Cash Flow is defined as cash flows from operating activities less cash used for purchases of property and equipment and capitalized internal-use software costs, plus expenditures such as the payment of acquisition-related compensation, the payment of transaction-related costs, and the payment of restructuring costs. . Free Cash Flow as a percentage of revenue is defined as Free Cash Flow divided by total revenue. Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow as a percentage of revenue is are not a recognized measures under IFRS. See “Non-IFRS Measures and Ratios and Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures”. The IFRS measure most directly comparable to Free Cash Flow presented in our financial statements is cash flow from operating activities.

Credit Facility
On May 8, 2025, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Original Credit Agreement”) with National Bank of Canada (“NBC”) providing for a $50.0 million secured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) with an accordion feature that allowed for the expansion of the Facility by up to an aggregate maximum principal amount of $50.0 million, upon request by Docebo, subject to review and approval by NBC. The Facility, which was secured against all assets of the Company and a pledge of certain equity interests in its subsidiaries, was available for general corporate purposes, acquisitions, and investments, subject to certain limitations.
The undrawn portion of the Facility was subject to a standby fee whereby the rate varied depending on the Company’s Net Debt to EBITDA Ratio (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement). The Facility had a term of three years. The Facility included certain covenants that required the Company to maintain certain financial ratios and meet certain non-financial requirements.
At the Company's election, amounts drawn on the Facility bore interest based on the Canadian prime rate, U.S. dollar base rate, the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR"), or Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average ("CORRA") plus an applicable margin, with interest payable monthly for Canadian prime rate and U.S. dollar base rate loans, at the end of each interest period for CORRA loans, and at the end of each interest period (and every three months if the interest period was longer than three months) for SOFR loans.
25
On January 14, 2026, the Company drew C$69.4 million (approximately $50.0 million) from the Facility as a CORRA loan.
On February 10, 2026 the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with NBC as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto from time to time (the “Lenders”) which amends and restates the Original Credit Agreement and provides, among other things, for an increase of $50.0 million in the secured revolving credit facility such that the maximum amount available for the Company to borrow is $100.0 million (the “Amended Facility”). The Amended Facility has a term of three years and bears interest at variable rates depending on certain financial ratios and metrics. The Amended Facility includes an accordion feature that allows for the expansion of the Amended Facility by up to an aggregate maximum principal amount of $50.0 million. The accordion feature is available upon request by Docebo and is subject to acceptance by the Lenders or commitments by new financial institutions or commercial lenders in the case where the Lenders decline to increase their commitment in connection with the accordion request. The Amended Facility, which is secured against all assets of the Company and a pledge of certain equity interests in its subsidiaries, is available for general corporate purposes, acquisitions, and investments, subject to certain limitations.
On March 10, 2026, the Company drew $30.0 million from the Amended Facility as a SOFR loan
On June 1, 2026, the Company drew $10.0 million from the Amended Facility as a SOFR loan.
On June 22, 2026, the Company signed the First Amending Agreement to the Amended Facility, which increased the Amended Facility by $50,000 to a total revolving credit facility of $150.0 million (the “First Amended Facility”).
As of September 30, 2026, Docebo was in compliance with all covenants under the First Amended Facility and approximately $90.0 million was outstanding thereunder.
Normal Course Issuer Bid and Substantial Issuer Bid
On May 9, 2025, the Company renewed its normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”) to repurchase and cancel up to 1,481,659 of its common shares, representing 5% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares as of May 6, 2025, over the 12-month period commencing on May 20, 2025, and ending no later than May 19, 2026.
On May 8, 2026, the Company renewed the NCIB to repurchase and cancel up to 1,269,702 of its common shares, representing approximately 5% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares as of May 6, 2026, over the 12 month period commencing May 20, 2026 , and ending no later than May 19, 2027.
The amounts paid in excess of the average book value of the common shares are charged to deficit. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company repurchased a total of 1,077,544 common shares for cancellation at an average price of $18.02 (C$24.83) per common share for total cash consideration of $19.4 million, including transaction costs.
In connection with the NCIB, the Company entered into an automatic share purchase plan (“ASPP”) with a designated broker for the purpose of allowing the Company to purchase its common shares under the NCIB during self-imposed trading blackout periods. Under the ASPP, the broker may be authorized to repurchase common shares during blackout periods, without consultation with the Company, on predefined terms, including share price, time period and subject to other limitations imposed by the Company and subject to rules and policies of the TSX and applicable securities laws, such as a daily purchase restriction.
As at September 30, 2026, the value of the ASPP liability was $13.6 million (nil at December 31, 2025).
On March 10, 2026, the Company completed a substantial issuer bid (“SIB”) under which the Company repurchased 2,941,176 common shares for cancellation at a price of $20.40 per common share for total cash consideration of $60.0 million, and incurred transaction costs of $0.6 million related to the SIB.

On January 20, 2026, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of 365Talents, a privately held AI-powered skills intelligence and workforce analytics simplified stock company (société par actions simplifiée) based in France (“365Talents”). The acquisition will be accounted for as a business combination in accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations.
Total purchase consideration was $60.8 million, consisting of: (i) cash paid on closing of $54.3 million; and (ii) a cash holdback amount of $2.7 million (up to a maximum of $2.7 million) which was paid during Q3 2026.

In addition, up to approximately $3.8 million (maximum undiscounted amount of $5.1 million) of additional cash consideration may be payable in fiscal year 2027 based on the achievement of certain financial milestones for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2026.
During the three months ended September 30, 2026 the Company recognized an adjustment to the initial fair value of the identified intangible assets and contingent consideration. The adjustment reflects additional information obtained during the measurement period about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date, including further analysis of the acquired business's results and refinements to the forecasts and calculations used in the valuation of the identified intangible assets.
Transaction costs relating to due diligence fees, legal costs, accounting fees, advisory fees and other professional fees amounting to $0.1 million and $1.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, and nil for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 were incurred in relation to the acquisition.

Related Party Transactions
In the ordinary course of business, we may provide services (including our Platform) to, and enter into contracts with, related parties on terms similar to those offered to non-related parties. We have no related party transactions, other than those noted in Note 17 in our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
Subsequent Events
On November 6, 2026, the Company declared a one-time cash dividend of approximately $60.0 million, representing $2.42 per common share. The dividend will be paid in U.S. dollars on November 30, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 16, 2026.
Financial Instruments and Other Instruments
Credit Risk
Generally, the carrying amount of financial instruments in our consolidated statement of financial position exposed to credit risk, net of any applicable provisions for losses, represents the maximum amount exposed to credit risk.
Our credit risk is primarily attributable to our cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables. We do not require guarantees from our customers. Credit risk with respect to cash and cash equivalents is managed by maintaining balances only with highly-rated financial institutions.
Due to our diverse customer base, there is no particular concentration of credit risk related to our trade and other receivables. Moreover, balances for trade and other receivables are managed and analyzed on an ongoing basis to ensure provisions for expected credit losses are established and maintained at an appropriate amount.
We estimate provisions for expected credit losses based upon the expected collectability of all trade and other receivables, which takes into account the number of days past due, collection history, identification of specific customer exposure and current economic trends. A provision for expected credit loss on trade and other receivables is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flow. Provisions for expected credit losses are charged to general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of income. Receivables for which an expected credit loss provision was recognized are written off against the corresponding provision when they are deemed uncollectible. Expected credit losses for trade receivables are based on the expected credit loss model. The Company applies the simplified approach to determine the provision for trade and other receivables by recognizing lifetime expected losses on initial recognition through both the analysis of historical defaults and a reassessment of counterparty credit risk in revenue contracts on an annual basis.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at the date hereof is the carrying value of each class of receivables mentioned above. We do not hold any collateral as security.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
We are exposed to currency risk due to financial instruments denominated in foreign currencies. The Company’s primary exposure with respect to foreign currencies is from U.S. dollar denominated cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, and borrowings in entities whose functional currency is other than U.S. dollars.
We have not entered into arrangements to hedge our exposure to currency risk.
28
Inflation Risk
We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. If our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We review these estimates on an ongoing basis based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that we may undertake in the future. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Areas requiring the most significant estimates and judgments which are deemed critical are outlined below.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue recognition requires judgment and the use of estimates, especially in evaluating the various non-standard terms and conditions in our contracts with customers as to their effect on reported revenue.
The Company derives its revenues from two main sources: subscription and professional services revenue, which includes professional and premium support services such as initial implementation, project management, training, and integration. Professional services do not include significant customization to, or development of, the software. Revenue is recognized by applying the five-step framework under IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as described in Note 3 of our audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The Company enters into significant revenue contracts with certain large enterprise customers that contain non-standard terms and conditions, pricing and promised services. Significant management judgment can be required to assess the impact of these items on the amount and timing of revenue recognition for these contracts including the determination of performance obligations, calculation of transaction price, allocation of transaction price across performance obligations, and timing of revenue recognition.
Business Combinations and Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
Business combinations are accounted for under the acquisition method when the acquired set of activities and assets meets the definition of a business and control is transferred to the Company. The consideration transferred in the acquisition is measured at fair value on the date of the acquisition, as are the identifiable net assets acquired. Any goodwill that arises is tested annually for impairment. Transaction costs incurred in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.
Any contingent consideration is measured at fair value at the date of acquisition. The Company accounts for contingent consideration as part of the business combination when it does not require continued employment services. Contingent consideration classified as a liability is remeasured at fair value each reporting period and subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in profit or loss.
Goodwill arises from a business combination as the excess of the consideration transferred over the identifiable net assets acquired. After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
Whenever property and equipment and intangible assets are tested for impairment, the determination of the assets’ recoverable amount involves the use of estimates by management and can have a material impact on the respective values and ultimately the amount of any impairment.

Outstanding Share Information
We are currently authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares. As of the date hereof, 24,833,740 common shares, 655,097 stock options, 233,627 DSUs, 900,702 RSUs, and 59,210 PSUs are issued and outstanding.
Foreign Currency Exchange (“FX”) Rates
Although our functional currency is the Canadian dollar, we have elected to report our financial results in U.S. dollars to improve the comparability of our financial results with our peers. Reporting our financial results in U.S. dollars also reduces the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations in the Company’s reported amounts, as our transactions denominated in U.S. dollars are significantly larger than Canadian dollars or Euros.
Our consolidated financial position and operating results have been translated to U.S. dollars applying FX rates outlined in the table below. FX rates are expressed as the amount of U.S. dollars required to purchase one Canadian dollar.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
Management of the Company, under the supervision of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under applicable Canadian securities laws and by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) for the Company to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, that is required to be made known to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer by others within the Company and disclosed by the Company in reports filed or submitted by it under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
Management determined that there were no material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2026.
There have been no changes to the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal controls over financial reporting.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have limited the scope of their design of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting to exclude the controls, policies, and procedures of 365Talents and Zive, which we acquired on January 20, 2026 and April 2, 2026, respectively.
30
In our consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, 365Talents and Zive contributed approximately $5.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively, to our consolidated revenue and a net loss of approximately $5.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Additionally, as at September 30, 2026, 365Talents and Zive's current assets and current liabilities represented approximately 2.2% and 2.7% of our consolidated current assets and current liabilities, respectively, and 365Talents’ and Zive’s non-current assets and non-current liabilities represented approximately 48.5% and less than 1% of our consolidated non-current assets and non-current liabilities, respectively. The design of the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting of 365Talents and Zive will be completed for the first quarter of 2027.

The forward-looking information in this press release includes, but is not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s business; the guidance for the three months ending December 31, 2026 in respect of total revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and subscription revenue and for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 in respect of total revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and subscription revenue discussed under “Financial Outlook” in this press release; the impact of AI on our business; the expected deployment and benefits of new and expanded customer agreements discussed under “Third Quarter 2026 Customer Updates” in this press release; future financial position and business strategy; Docebo’s position in the learning management industry; our growth rates and growth strategies; addressable markets for our solutions; and the achievement of advances in and expansion of our platform. This forward-looking information is based on our opinions, estimates and assumptions in light of our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors that we currently believe are appropriate and reasonable in the circumstances. Despite a careful process to prepare and review the forward-looking information, there can be no assurance that the underlying opinions, estimates and assumptions will prove to be correct. Certain assumptions include: our ability to build our market share and enter new markets and industry verticals; our ability to attract and retain key personnel; our ability to maintain and expand geographic scope; our ability to execute on our expansion plans, including, but not limited to, our ability to expand upon AI components of our platform; our ability to continue investing in infrastructure to support our growth; our ability to obtain and maintain existing financing on acceptable terms; our ability to execute on profitability initiatives; our ability to maintain the authorization required for use of our platform across the public sector; currency exchange and interest rates; the impact of inflation and global macroeconomic conditions; the impact of competition; our ability to respond to the changes and trends in our industry or the global economy; and the changes in laws, rules, regulations, and global standards are material factors made in preparing forward-looking information and management’s expectations.
Forward-looking information is necessarily based on a number of opinions, estimates and assumptions that, while considered by the Company to be appropriate and reasonable as of the date of this press release, are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including but not limited to:
•the Company’s ability to execute its growth strategies;
•the impact of changing conditions in the global corporate e-learning market;
•increasing competition in the global corporate e-learning market in which the Company operates;
•fluctuations in currency exchange rates and volatility in financial markets;
•changes in the attitudes, financial condition and demand of our target market;

4
•issues in the use of AI in our platform and potential resulting reputational harm or liability; and

Our guidance for the three months ending December 31, 2026 in respect of total revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and subscription revenue and for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 in respect of total revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and subscription revenue, is in each case subject to certain assumptions and associated risks as stated above under this “Forward-Looking Information,” section and in particular the following:
•foreign exchange rates remain consistent with those in effect as at September 30, 2026;
•macroeconomic conditions will be generally consistent with those experienced in the nine months of 2026;
•2026 revenue from our largest original equipment manufacturer customer will be approximately 3%-4% of 2026 total revenue and 2026 revenue from our recent acquisition of 365Talents will be approximately US$9,000,000;
•we will not enter into any new contracts (excluding renewals) in 2026 that provide for more than US$1,000,000 of ARR;
•we will maintain our customer retention levels, and specifically, our customers will renew contractual commitments on a periodic basis as those commitments come up for renewal, at rates not materially inconsistent with our historical experience; and
•with respect to Adjusted EBITDA, we will contain expense levels while expanding our business.
If any of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if the opinions, estimates or assumptions underlying the forward-looking information prove incorrect, actual results or future events might vary materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking information. The opinions, estimates or assumptions referred to above and described in greater detail in the “Summary of Factors Affecting our Performance” section of our MD&A for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and in the “Risk Factors” section of our AIF should be considered carefully by prospective investors.
Although we have attempted to identify important risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other risk factors not presently known to us or that we presently believe are not material that could also cause actual results or future events to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking information. There can be no assurance that such information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information. No forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future results. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information, which speaks only as of the date made. The forward-looking information contained in this press release represents our expectations as of the date specified herein, and is subject to change after such date. However, we disclaim any intention or obligation or undertaking to update or revise any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required under applicable securities laws.

Non-IFRS Measures and Ratios and Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures
This press release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures and ratios including key performance indicators used by management and typically used by our competitors in the SaaS industry. These measures and ratios are not recognized
6
measures under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures and ratios are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, these measures and ratios should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. These non-IFRS measures and ratios are used to provide investors with alternative measures of our operating performance and liquidity and thus highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures and ratios. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures and ratios, including SaaS industry metrics, in the evaluation of companies in the SaaS industry. Management also uses non-IFRS measures to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of executive compensation. The non-IFRS measures referred to in this press release include “Annual Recurring Revenue”, “Average Contract Value”, “Adjusted EBITDA”, “Adjusted Net Income”, “Adjusted Earnings per Share - Basic and Diluted”, “Working Capital” and “Free Cash Flow”. The non-IFRS ratios referred to in this press release include “Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue” and “Free Cash Flow as a percentage of total revenue”.
Key Performance Indicators
We recognize subscription revenues ratably over the term of the subscription period under the provisions of our agreements with customers. The terms of our agreements, combined with high customer retention rates, provide us with a significant degree of visibility into our near-term revenues. Management uses a number of metrics, including the ones identified below, to measure the Company’s performance and customer trends, which are used to prepare financial plans and shape future strategy. Our key performance indicators may be calculated in a manner different from similar key performance indicators used by other companies.
•Annual Recurring Revenue: We define Annual Recurring Revenue as the annualized equivalent value of the subscription revenue of all existing contracts (including Original Equipment Manufacturer contracts) as at the date being measured, excluding non-recurring revenues from implementation, support and maintenance fees. Our customers generally enter into annual or multi-year contracts which are non-cancellable or cancellable with penalty. Accordingly, our calculation of Annual Recurring Revenue assumes that customers will renew the contractual commitments on a periodic basis as those commitments come up for renewal. Subscription agreements may be subject to price increases upon renewal reflecting both inflationary increases and the additional value provided by our solutions. In addition to the expected increase in subscription revenue from price increases over time, existing customers may subscribe for additional features, learners or services during the term. We believe that this measure provides a fair real-time measure of performance in a subscription-based environment. Annual Recurring Revenue provides us with visibility for consistent and predictable growth to our cash flows. Our strong total revenue growth coupled with increasing Annual Recurring Revenue indicates the continued strength in the expansion of our business and will continue to be our focus on a go-forward basis.
•Average Contract Value: Average Contract Value is calculated as total Annual Recurring Revenue divided by the number of active customers.
Annual Recurring Revenue and Average Contract Value as at September 30, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:
2026 | 2025 | Change | Change % | ||||||||||||||
| Annual Recurring Revenue (in millions of US dollars) | 261.5 | 235.6 | 25.9 | 11.0% | |||||||||||||
| Average Contract Value (in thousands of US dollars) | 77.9 | 62.8 | 15.1 | 24.0% | |||||||||||||
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income excluding net finance income, depreciation and amortization, income taxes, share-based compensation and related payroll taxes, other income, foreign exchange gains and losses, acquisition-related compensation, transaction related expenses and restructuring costs, if any. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue.
The IFRS measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA presented in our financial statements is net income.

Docebo Inc. Announces US$60 Million Special Dividend
Special dividend reflects confidence in the Company's financial position, improving free cash flow generation and commitment to disciplined capital allocation
TORONTO, ONTARIO – November 6, 2026 – Docebo Inc. (NASDAQ: DCBO; TSX: DCBO) (“Docebo” or the “Company”), the Enterprise Platform for the AI-era workforce, unifying skills intelligence, learning, and knowledge in one closed loop, announced that its Board of Directors has declared a special, one-time cash dividend of approximately US$60 million, representing US$2.42 per common share. The dividend will be paid in U.S. dollars on November 30, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 16, 2026.
Consistent with the Company’s past capital allocation initiatives, the special dividend reflects the Board’s confidence in Docebo’s business, its improving free cash flow, and follows a thorough review of the Company’s capital requirements and strategic investment priorities. In setting the amount of the dividend, the Board considered the recurring nature of Docebo’s subscription-based business model, its anticipated cash flows, debt servicing requirements, near-term organic and inorganic investment needs and the financial flexibility the Company will retain following payment. The dividend will be funded through additional borrowings under Docebo’s existing US$150 million credit facility.
Docebo remains focused on its growth strategy. The special dividend does not signal a change in these priorities, and shareholders should not expect it to recur. The Board will continue to evaluate capital allocation in light of operating performance, market conditions and strategic opportunities.
The special dividend will be designated as an "eligible dividend" for Canadian income tax purposes.
