CAUTIONARY NOTES REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) includes statements that are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. For all such statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements provided by such sections and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, where applicable. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that address activities, events or developments that we expect or anticipate may occur in the future, including statements with respect to our outlook, our product development and planning, our pipeline, future capital expenditures, future share repurchases, anticipated financial results, the impact of regulatory changes, our current and evolving business strategies, including with respect to acquisitions and dispositions, demand for our services, our competitive position, the benefits of new initiatives, growth of our business and operations, the effectiveness of our products, the outcomes of litigation proceedings and claims, the state and future of skilling in the workplace, our ability to successfully implement our plans, strategies, objectives, and our expectations and intentions. Forward-looking statements may, without limitation, be preceded by, followed by, or include words such as “may,” “will,” “would,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “project,” “forecast,” “seek,” “outlook,” “target,” “goal,” “objective,” “potential,” “possible,” “probably,” or similar expressions, employ such future or conditional verbs as “may,” “might,” “will,” “could,” “should,” or “would,” or may otherwise be indicated as forward-looking statements by grammatical construction, phrasing or context. Such statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of Skillsoft’s management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. All forward-looking disclosures are speculative by their nature, and we caution you against unduly relying on these forward-looking statements.
Factors, many of which are beyond our control, that could cause or contribute to such differences include those described under “Part I - Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Part II - Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, of our Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025 (the “2025 Form 10-K”). These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements included in the 2025 Form 10-K, this Form 10-Q and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q represent our estimates only as of the date of this filing and should not be relied upon as representing our estimates as of any subsequent date. While we may elect to update these forward-looking statements in the future, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, whether to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions, changes in other factors affecting such forward-looking statements, or otherwise, except as required by law. You are advised, however, to review any further factors and risks we describe in reports we file from time to time with the SEC after the date of this Form 10-Q.
Although we believe that the assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of these assumptions, and therefore also the forward-looking statements based on these assumptions, could themselves prove to be inaccurate. Given the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included in this document, our inclusion of this information is not a representation or guarantee by us that our objectives and plans will be achieved. Annualized, pro forma, projected and estimated numbers are used for illustrative purposes only, are not forecasts and may not reflect actual results.
All forward-looking statements contained herein are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements.
INDUSTRY AND MARKET DATA
Within this Form 10-Q, we reference information and statistics regarding market share, industry data and our market position. Certain of this information has been obtained from various independent third-party sources, including independent industry publications, news reports, reports by market research firms and other independent sources. We believe that these external sources and estimates are reliable but have not independently verified them. In addition, certain of this information and statistics are based on our own internal surveys and assessments, which are developed in good faith using reasonable estimates. The information is based on the most current data available to us, and our estimates regarding market position or other industry statistics included in this document or otherwise discussed by us involve risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors, including as set forth above.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Description of Business
Skillsoft Corp. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Skillsoft”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) empowers organizations and learners to unlock their full potential by delivering personalized, interactive learning experiences and enterprise-ready solutions. Our Class A Common Stock, par value $
References in the accompanying footnotes to Skillsoft’s fiscal year refer to the fiscal year ended January 31 of that year (e.g., fiscal 2025 is the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025).
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Financial Statement Preparation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (the "Interim Financial Statements") include the accounts of Skillsoft Corp. and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. Any subsidiaries that are formed or acquired during the year are consolidated from their respective dates of formation or acquisition. We prepared the Interim Financial Statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim reporting, and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information or footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The Interim Financial Statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present our financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results expected for any other interim period or a full fiscal year. The Interim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto (“2025 AFS”) included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2025 (“2025 Form 10-K”).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures with respect to contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. We base our judgments, estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The economic environment also impacts certain estimates and discount rates necessary to prepare our consolidated financial statements, including significant estimates and discount rates applicable to the determination of the fair values used in the impairment testing of our nonfinancial assets. Our assessment of these factors forms the basis for our judgments on the carrying values of our assets and liabilities, and the accrual of our costs and expenses. Actual results could differ materially from our estimates. We review our estimates and underlying assumptions on an ongoing basis and make revisions as determined necessary by management. Revisions are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and may also impact subsequent periods.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Interim Financial Statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the accounting policies described in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the 2025 AFS and should be read in connection therewith.
Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires additional information in the rate reconciliation table and additional disclosures about income taxes paid. We adopted this guidance effective February 1, 2025. The impact of our adoption of this guidance will be reflected in our fiscal 2026 Form 10-K. We do not expect the adoption to have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements, but it will result in the presentation of more detailed income tax disclosures.
Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which requires disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses, including employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. We will adopt this guidance effective February 1, 2027. The disclosures required under the guidance can be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all periods presented in the financial statements. We are evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Topic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This ASU removes all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages (referred to as “project stages”) and requires capitalization of software costs when both of the following occur: (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project; and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended (referred to as the “probable-to-complete recognition threshold”). ASU 2025-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We expect to adopt this guidance effective February 1, 2028. We may apply the guidance prospectively, retrospectively, or via a modified prospective transition method. We are evaluating the impact that this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.
We believe that other recently issued accounting standards will either not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or will not apply to our operations.

Intangible Asset Impairment Review Requirements and Assumption Uncertainty
Skillsoft monitors adverse events, conditions or changes in circumstances that indicate impairment of the definite-lived (amortizable) intangible assets of each of our reporting units. When such events, conditions or changes in circumstances occur, we assess the recoverability of the assets by comparing the undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the intangible assets to their carrying amount. If the undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount, an impairment charge based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets, is recorded. Fair value is estimated using income- and market-based valuation techniques that require significant judgment regarding future cash flows, discount rates, and market participant assumptions. Because these estimates are inherently uncertain, actual results may differ from the assumptions used in the analysis, which could materially affect the determination of fair value in future periods.
Skillsoft evaluates impairment for indefinite-lived intangible assets, including goodwill, on an annual impairment test date ( January 1) or more frequently if there are indicators of impairment. In connection with the goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment evaluation, Skillsoft may first consider qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not (i.e., a likelihood of more than 50%) that the fair value of a reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. If Skillsoft determines that the fair value of a reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount, or elects to bypass this qualitative assessment, a comparison of the carrying value of the reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible asset to its fair value is completed. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, an impairment loss equal to the difference (for goodwill, not to exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit) is recorded.
The fair value of our reporting units is determined using a weighted average valuation model using the income approach (discounted cash flow approach) and the market approach. The income approach requires management to make certain assumptions based upon information available at the time the valuations are performed. Actual results could differ materially from these assumptions. Management endeavors to use assumptions that are reflective of what a market participant would have used in calculating fair value considering the current economic conditions. This process was followed during our annual impairment test of intangible assets as of January 1, 2025 and during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 for the GK reporting unit as discussed below.
The fair value of our indefinite-lived trademark intangible (our only indefinite-lived intangible asset other than goodwill) is determined using an income approach referred to as the relief-from-royalty method. The relief-from-royalty method requires management to estimate the portion of our earnings attributable to this trademark based on a royalty rate we would have paid for the use of the asset if we did not own it. The determination of fair value involves significant estimates and assumptions, including projected revenue growth rates, the royalty savings rate, and the discount rate applied to future cash flows, which are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions. This process was followed during our annual impairment test as of January 1, 2025.
In determining reporting units, Skillsoft first identifies its operating segments and then assesses whether any components of these segments constitute a business for which discrete financial information is available and where segment management regularly reviews the operating results.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2026, we identified triggering events requiring the testing for impairment of our GK reporting unit primarily attributable to the impact of industry macroeconomic uncertainty, the industry shift to integrated learning experience, as well as a continued decline in public sector business that contributed to lower enrollment. As a result of the foregoing, we lowered our expectations for the GK reporting unit’s revenue and estimated future cash flows. As of October 1, 2025, the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the amortizable intangibles of the GK reporting unit were determined to be greater than the carrying values, therefore management concluded that there was no impairment of identifiable intangibles during the third quarter of fiscal 2026.
Management next estimated the fair value of the GK reporting unit as of October 1, 2025, using the income approach discussed in Intangible Asset Impairment Review Requirements and Assumption Uncertainty above. Management did use the market approach in the weighting of the fair value of the GK reporting unit given its low profitability. For the reasons described above, the estimated future cash flows of this reporting unit declined, and when applied to the impairment analysis resulted in a lower fair value of the GK reporting unit. As a result, management determined to record a $
We did not identify any interim triggering events during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 in connection with either the TDS reporting unit or our indefinite-lived trademark intangible.
(4) Taxes
For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025, we recorded a tax benefit of $
On July 4, 2025, the President signed into law significant federal tax legislation, H.R.1 (the “Tax Reform Act of 2025” commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”)). The legislation includes numerous changes to U.S. corporate income tax law, including but not limited to the following: permanent 100% bonus depreciation for qualified property, immediate expensing of domestic research and experimental expenditures, modifications to the limitation on business interest expense, changes to the international tax regime, and expanded limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation under IRC Section 162(m).
Skillsoft has reflected the impact of the OBBBA's elective tax items in its Interim Financial Statements. We will continue to monitor guidance issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Internal Revenue Service, and other regulatory bodies and will incorporate any updates into our estimates as appropriate.
(5) Restructuring
In connection with strategic initiatives implemented during fiscal 2025, Skillsoft’s management approved and initiated plans to reduce its cost structure and better align operating expenses with existing economic conditions and our operating model. These strategic initiatives included the comprehensive resource reallocation plan announced on July 11, 2024.
The following is a summary of restructuring charges by segment for the periods presented (in thousands):

These restructuring charges are presented separately in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Our restructuring charges recognized during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 were primarily associated with the costs of terminated employees. Our restructuring charges recognized during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024 were primarily associated with the costs of terminated employees, as well as lease terminations and lease impairment charges.
The restructuring charge liability activity consisted of the following for the period presented (in thousands):

Management has completed the majority of planned restructuring actions as of October 31, 2025; however, we will continue to evaluate our cost structure and operating model to align operating expenses with existing economic conditions, which could result in further restructuring actions.
(6) Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
Skillsoft is, from time to time, party to general legal proceedings and claims, which arise in the ordinary course of business including those relating to commercial and contractual disputes, employment matters, intellectual property, and other business matters. When appropriate, management consults with legal counsel and other appropriate experts to assess claims. If, in management’s opinion, we have incurred a probable loss as determined in accordance with GAAP, an estimate is made of the loss, and the appropriate accrual is reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Currently, there are no material amounts accrued. While it is not possible to quantify the financial impact or predict the outcome of these pending claims and litigation, management does anticipate that the outcome of any such current proceedings or known claims, either individually or in aggregate, will materially affect Skillsoft’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
There are no material proceedings to which any director, officer or affiliate of Skillsoft, any owner of record or beneficially of more than five percent of our common stock, or any associate of any of the foregoing is a party adverse to Skillsoft or any of its subsidiaries or has a material interest adverse to Skillsoft or any of its subsidiaries.
Warranties and Indemnities
Skillsoft’s software license arrangements and hosting services are typically warranted to perform in a manner consistent with general industry standards that are reasonably applicable and substantially in accordance with our product documentation under normal use and circumstances. Our arrangements also include certain provisions for indemnifying customers against liabilities if our products or services infringe a third party’s intellectual property rights. We have entered into service level agreements with some of our hosted application customers warrantying certain levels of uptime reliability and such agreements permit those customers to receive credits against monthly hosting fees or terminate their agreements in the event that Skillsoft fails to meet those levels for an agreed upon period of time.
To date, Skillsoft has incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnifications or commitments and has accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the Interim Financial Statements.

(9) Stock-Based Compensation
Equity Incentive Plans
In June 2021, Skillsoft adopted the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which was amended on June 6, 2024 (as so amended, the “2020 Plan”). The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, other equity-based awards, and cash-based incentive awards to employees, directors, and consultants of Skillsoft. Under the 2020 Plan,

Time-Based Restricted Stock Units
Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) represent a right to receive share of Skillsoft’s common stock that is both non-transferable and forfeitable unless and until certain conditions are satisfied. Other than RSUs currently granted to our non-employee directors, which vest upon the earlier of the first anniversary of the grant date and Skillsoft’s next annual meeting of stockholders, time-based RSUs generally vest ratably over a or -year period, subject to continued employment through each anniversary. The fair value of RSUs is determined on the grant date and is amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis.

(10) Revenue
Revenue Components and Performance Obligations
Subscription Services
Skillsoft offers subscriptions that provide customers access to a broad spectrum of learning options including access to cloud-based Software as a Service (“SaaS”) learning content and individualized coaching. Our cloud-based subscription solutions normally do not provide customers with the right to take possession of the software supporting the platform or to download course content without continuing to incur fees for hosting services and, as a result, are accounted for as service arrangements. Access to the platform and course content represents a series of distinct services as we continually provide access to, and fulfill our obligation to, the customer over the subscription term. The series of distinct services represents a single performance obligation that is satisfied over time. Accordingly, the fixed consideration related to subscription revenue is usually recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term, beginning on the date that the service is made available to the customer. Our subscription contracts typically vary from year to years. Our cloud-based solutions arrangements are mostly non-cancellable, non-refundable, and are invoiced in advance of the subscription services being provided. Revenue from individualized coaching for time-based access to unlimited sessions is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period these services are available to the customers.
Virtual, On-Demand and Classroom
Revenue from classroom training is recognized in the period in which the services are rendered. Revenue from virtual and on-demand training for time-based access to unlimited sessions is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period these services are available to the customers. Billing is in advance of the services being provided or immediately after the services have been provided.
Professional Services
Skillsoft also sells professional services related to its cloud solutions which are typically considered distinct performance obligations and are recognized over time as services are performed. For fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognized based on the actual service provided at the end of the reporting period as a proportion of the total services to be provided (proportional performance method). These services usually consist of implementation, integration, and general consulting. Skillsoft’s professional service engagements are mostly short in duration. Billing is commonly in advance of the services being provided.

(11) Fair Value Measurements
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are information that reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of us. Unobservable inputs are variables that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy established by ASC 820 in order of priority are as follows:
| ● | Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. |
| ● | Level 2: Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. |
| ● | Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available. |
The following summarizes our assets (liabilities) that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of October 31, 2025 and are categorized using the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | ||||||||||||||
| Measurements | Measurements | Measurements | Total | |||||||||||||

| (Liability)-classified market-based awards | ( | ) | ( | ) | ||||||||||||
| Total assets (liabilities) recorded at fair value | $ | $ | ( | ) | $ | $ | ||||||||||
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
The cost of our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was consistent with their estimated fair values as of October 31, 2025. Refer to Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash” to the 2025 AFS for additional detail.
Interest Rate Swaps
On June 17, 2022, Skillsoft entered into fixed-rate interest rate swap agreements to change the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”)-based component of the interest rate on a portion of our variable rate debt to a fixed rate (the “Interest Rate Swaps”). The Interest Rate Swaps have a combined notional amount of $
The inputs for determining fair value of the Interest Rate Swaps are classified as Level 2 inputs. Level 2 fair value is based on estimates using standard pricing models. These standard pricing models use inputs which are derived from or corroborated by observable market data such as interest rate yield curves, index forward curves, discount curves, and volatility surfaces. The counterparties to these derivative contracts are highly-rated financial institutions which we believe carry only a minimal risk of nonperformance.
Depending on whether the Interest Rate Swaps are in an asset or liability position at the end of the reporting period, they are included in either the captions “other assets” or “other long-term liabilities” on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Liability-Classified Market-Based Awards
The fair value of the liability-classified market-based awards are determined using a Monte Carlo simulation, weighted for the service period completed, at each reporting date. The most significant inputs for determining the fair value either originate from the grant agreement (e.g., stock price hurdles, vesting amounts, and service dates) or are derived from or corroborated by observable market data (e.g., interest rates, stock prices, equity risk, market betas, size premiums, average stock volatility); therefore we have classified the fair value measurement as Level 2. Refer to Note 9 “Stock-Based Compensation” above for additional information related to the liability-classified market-based awards.
Other Fair Value Instruments
Skillsoft currently invests available cash balances primarily in money market funds invested in United States Treasury securities and United States Treasury securities repurchase agreements, as well as cash deposits held at major banks. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables and accrued liabilities, as reported on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2025, approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.
Our long-term debt is a financial instrument, and the fair value of Skillsoft’s outstanding principal amounts as of October 31, 2025 was $
(12) Segment Information
ASC 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that earn revenue and incur expenses, for which discrete financial information is available, and whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in determining how to allocate resources and to assess performance. Skillsoft’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. No operating segments have been aggregated to determine our reportable segments.
Our CODM organizes Skillsoft's business, manages resource allocation and measures performance through operating and reportable segments: Talent Development Solutions (“TDS” formerly known as Content & Platform) and Global Knowledge (“GK” formerly known as Instructor-Led Training). These two businesses, described below, are highly complementary and give Skillsoft a differentiated value proposition. The CODM uses segment revenues, segment (“business unit”) contribution profit and business unit contribution margin (business unit contribution profit as a percentage of business unit revenue) to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. There are intercompany revenue transactions reported between our reportable segments. When our segments enter into transactions to provide products and services to third parties, revenue is generally allocated to our segments based on relative value.
Business unit contribution profit is determined by subtracting the following from segment revenue: business unit costs of revenues, business unit content and software development expenses, and with respect to our TDS segment, business unit product research and management expenses, which are defined as the costs of revenues, content and software development expenses, and product research and management expenses attributable to each segment, respectively (as described below), but excluding in each case the following items, as our CODM does not consider them in measuring segment performance:
| ● | Depreciation expenses – Cost of property and equipment recorded to expense over their respective estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. | |
| ● | Long-term incentive compensation expenses – Charges associated with long-term incentive compensation programs, including stock-based compensation, cash awards tied to stock performance, and awards granted in lieu of stock that are intended to be settled in cash. | |
| ● | System migration costs – Costs of temporary resources needed for the migration of content and customers from our legacy system to a global platform. |
In determining business unit costs of revenues, business unit content and software development expenses, and business unit product research and management expenses, identifiable costs and expenses are allocated directly to the applicable segment while other costs and expenses, including indirect costs and certain corporate charges, are allocated to our segments based on an analysis of the relative usage or benefit derived therefrom by each segment.
Business unit contribution profit excludes the following, as these items are managed and reviewed by the CODM at the company level: selling and marketing expenses; general and administrative expenses; amortization of intangible assets; impairment of goodwill; acquisition and integration-related costs; restructuring expenses; net other income (expense); interest rate swap fair value adjustments; interest income; and interest expense. Although business unit contribution profit and business unit contribution margin are used to evaluate the performance of our segments, we may incur operating costs in one segment that may also benefit the other segment. Operating segment performance is not evaluated based on segment asset or liability information. Our accounting policies for segment reporting are the same as those applied to Skillsoft as a whole.
The TDS segment is comprised of a strong foundation of products and customers, with its enterprise-grade solution serving customers and employees worldwide. TDS Learner is a world-renowned consumer scale and experience learner platform that serves learners worldwide. We deliver AI-led, interactive, and multi-modal experiences, a premium technology learning brand, outcome-based learning through benchmarks, enterprise grade security and integrations, and extensive coverage of topics across business, technology, and compliance skills.
The GK segment is centered around instructor-led training, or live learning, with face-to-face delivery by experienced trainers, both in-person and virtually. GK is a live learning partner for corporations with a large, but focused, schedule of vendor-authored and certified courses utilizing certified instructors. The quality and consistency of trainers, the access to quality content and interactive labs from the world’s largest vendors, and a market-leading blended proposition with TDS, define GK's uniqueness in the market. Our GK segment has strong partnerships with the world’s leading technology companies and certification authorities.
As previously disclosed, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, our CODM made changes to the components used to determine segment results to increase transparency and improve segment comparability to peers. We believe that business unit contribution profit as currently defined is a key financial indicator of the performance of our segments. The changes did not impact our consolidated financial statements.
The following reconciles business unit contribution profit to GAAP net income (loss), recast for the prior-year periods to reflect our segments under the new structure, for the periods presented (in thousands):

(13) Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus the dilutive effect of outstanding restricted stock-based awards, and stock options using the treasury stock method.
The following sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (in thousands, except for the number of shares and per share data):

Refer to Note 12 “Segment Information” to the Interim Financial Statements for information regarding our segments, including a reconciliation of segment (“business unit”) contribution profit to net income (loss) for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 and 2024. Segment (“business unit”) contribution profit and segment (“business unit”) contribution margin are the measures used by our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), who is our Chief Executive Officer, to allocate resources and to assess the performance of our segments. Business unit contribution profit is determined by subtracting the following from segment revenue: business unit cost of revenues, business unit content and software development expenses, and with respect to our TDS segment, business unit product research and management expenses, which are defined as the costs of revenues, content and software development expenses, and product research and management expenses attributable to each segment, respectively (allocated as described in Note 12 “Segment Information” to the Interim Financial Statements), but excluding in each case the following items, as our CODM does not consider them in the measurement of segment performance:
| ● | Depreciation expenses – Cost of property and equipment recorded to expense over their respective estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. |
|
| ● | Long-term incentive compensation expenses – Charges associated with long-term incentive compensation programs, including stock-based compensation, cash awards tied to stock performance, and awards granted in-lieu of stock that are intended to be settled in cash. |
|
| ● | System migration costs – Costs of temporary resources needed for the migration of content and customers from our legacy system to a global platform. |

Revenues
We provide, through our TDS and GK segments, enterprise learning solutions designed to prepare organizations for the future of work, and to overcome critical skills gaps, drive demonstrable behavior-change, and unlock the potential in their people.
Our TDS segment generates revenues from its comprehensive suite of premium, original, and authorized partner content, featuring a deep library of leadership and business, technology and development, and compliance curricula. With access to a broad spectrum of learning options (including video, audio, books, bootcamps, live events, and practice labs), we believe that organizations can meaningfully increase learner engagement and retention. Our TDS offerings are predominantly delivered through Percipio, our award-winning, AI-driven, immersive learning platform built to make learning easier, more accessible, and more effective. In addition, we also have proprietary platforms used for our TDS Learner and Skillsoft Coaching offerings. Our learning solutions are typically sold on a subscription basis for a fixed term.
Our GK segment generates revenues from virtual, in-classroom, and on-demand training solutions geared at foundational, practitioner and expert information technology professionals. Our offerings include authorized content from various partners aimed at providing professional certifications for individuals that successfully complete all requirements. GK’s digital and in-classroom learning solutions provide enterprises, government agencies, and educational institutions with a broad selection of customizable courses to help meet their technology and development needs.
Subscription and Non-Subscription Revenues
Software as a service (“SaaS”) Subscription Revenue. Represents revenue generated from contracts specifying a minimum fixed fee for services delivered over the life of the contract. The initial term of enterprise contracts is generally one to three years and is usually non-cancellable for the term of the subscription. The fixed fee is commonly paid upfront on an annual basis. These contracts typically consist of subscriptions to our various offerings which provide access to our SaaS platforms, associated content and services, and individualized coaching, over the contract term.
Non-Subscription Revenue. Primarily comprised of instructor-led training offerings, which consist of both in-person and virtual environments. Instructor-led training, including virtual offerings, is first scheduled, then delivered later, with revenue realized on the delivery date. Non-subscription revenues also include professional services related to implementation of our products and subsequent, ongoing consulting engagements. Our non-subscription services complement our subscription business in creating strong and comprehensive customer relationships.

Revenues for the GK segment declined, when comparing the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 to the respective prior year periods. The GK segment was affected by macroeconomic uncertainty and seasonal patterns, as well as a continued decline in public sector business that contributed to lower enrollment. We expect these trends to continue to lower our future GK segment revenues for the foreseeable future. For the TDS segment, total revenue decreased for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 compared with the respective prior-year periods, primarily due to lower Learner revenue.

Cost of revenues is a variable expense that is primarily driven by revenue volume and the composition of product and service types when they have different margins. The decrease in compensation and benefits, when comparing the nine months ended October 31, 2025 to the corresponding period in 2024, was primarily attributable to the decline in our revenues as discussed in Subscription and Non-Subscription Revenue. The decrease in facilities and utilities expenses, when comparing the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 to the corresponding periods in 2024, was primarily attributable to cost savings from the consolidation of our facilities. These decreases were partially offset by the increase in hosting and software maintenance expenses primarily due to investments in technology. In addition, the increase in courseware, instructor fees and outside services were primarily the result of product and service mix and rising third-party costs. Furthermore, the increase in compensation and benefits, when comparing the three months ended October 31, 2025 to the corresponding period in 2024, was primarily the result of product and service mix changes, which resulted in an increase in internal instructors.
Content and software development
Content and software development expenses include costs associated with the development of new products and the enhancement of existing products, consisting primarily of employee salaries and benefits; development-related professional services; facilities costs; depreciation; and software maintenance costs.

The decreases in compensation and benefits, when comparing the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 to the prior year periods, were primarily attributable to productivity gains through leveraging technology investments. These decreases were partially offset by the increase in software maintenance expenses, when comparing the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 to the prior year periods, which were primarily due to investments in technology. The increase in consulting and outside services, when comparing the three months ended October 31, 2025 to the corresponding period in 2024, was primarily timing-related as demonstrated by the decline when comparing the nine months ended October 31, 2025 to the prior year period.
Selling and marketing

The decrease in compensation and benefits, when comparing the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 to the corresponding periods in 2024, was primarily attributable to the impact of our July 2024 comprehensive resource reallocation plan. The decreases in advertising and promotions and software maintenance, when comparing the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 to the corresponding periods in 2024, were primarily attributable to proactive reductions in branding initiatives and paid media spend.

These declines were partially offset by the increase in expenses for consulting and outside services, when comparing the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 to the corresponding periods in 2024, which was primarily the result of the strategic decision to obtain targeted marketing expertise to enhance brand awareness in order to drive revenue growth.
General and administrative
General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses consist primarily of employee salaries and benefits for executive, finance, administrative, and legal personnel; audit, legal and consulting fees; insurance; franchise, sales and property taxes; facilities costs; and depreciation.

Integration and restructuring activities, including cost savings from the consolidation of our facilities and lower software maintenance, franchise, sales, and property taxes, and insurance, drove the overall decline in G&A expenses in those categories during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 compared to the respective prior year periods. The decreases applicable to the three months ended October 31, 2025 compared to the prior year period were partially offset by an increase in compensation and benefits, resulting primarily from an increase in stock-compensation expense resulting from higher forfeitures during the three months ended October 31, 2024 due to unvested equity-based awards associated with our former Chief Executive Officer whose employment with Skillsoft ended on May 9, 2024. The decreases applicable to the nine months ended October 31, 2025 compared to the prior year period were partially offset by an increase in consulting and outside services, attributable to a digital strategy initiative aimed at enhancing our operational effectiveness.
Amortization of intangible assets
Intangible assets arising from business combinations are developed technology, customer-related intangibles, trade names and other identifiable intangible assets with finite lives. These intangible assets are amortized over the estimated useful lives of such assets. We also capitalize certain internal use software development costs related to our SaaS platforms incurred during the application development stage. The internal use software is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life.
Amortization of intangible assets, when comparing the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 to the same respective periods in 2024, remained relatively consistent as increases in amortization of capitalized internal use software development costs were offset by decreases attributable to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized.
Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets
Intangible asset impairment review requirements and assumption uncertainty.
Acquisition and integration related costs
Acquisition and integration related costs consist of professional fees for legal, investment banking and other advisor costs incurred in connection with the business combinations completed in April 2022 and the subsequent integration related activities. The changes in acquisition and integration related costs were primarily due to the timing of these aforementioned activities.
Restructuring
In connection with a comprehensive resource reallocation plan announced on July 11, 2024, the acquisition integration process and our workplace flexibility policy, we continued our initiatives and commitment to reduce our costs and better align operating expenses with existing economic conditions and our operating model, with the intention of improving operating efficiency, competitiveness and business profitability. These initiatives included workforce reductions and the consolidation of facilities as we adopted new work arrangements for certain locations. Our restructuring charges recognized during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 totaling $4.2 million and $7.7 million, respectively, were primarily associated with the costs of terminated employees. Our restructuring charges recognized during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024 totaling $3.1 million and $15.4 million, respectively, were primarily associated with the costs of terminated employees, as well as lease terminations and lease impairment charges.
Interest and other
Interest and other, net, consists of gain or loss on derivative instruments, interest income, interest expense, and other expenses and income (in thousands, except percentages):

Other income (expense), net consists primarily of the foreign exchange gains and losses (specifically, resulting from foreign currency denominated transactions and the revaluation of foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities), which fluctuate as the U.S. dollar appreciates or depreciates against other currencies. Interest income for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 compared to the same respective periods in 2024, decreased primarily due to lower money market balances, as a result of the reduction in borrowings under our accounts receivable facility, as well as lower average money market investments yields. The decrease in interest expense, when comparing the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 to the corresponding periods in 2024, was primarily due to a reduction in borrowings under our accounts receivable facility (described below) and lower average interest rates for our borrowings. As a result of our interest rate swaps we executed on June 17, 2022, described below, we have a fixed cash interest rate of 8.94% on $300 million of our outstanding term loans.
Fair value adjustment of interest rate swaps
We entered into two fixed-rate interest rate swap agreements on June 17, 2022 for a combined notional amount of $300 million and a maturity date of June 5, 2027. The objective of the interest rate swaps is to eliminate fluctuations in cash flows for interest payments on $300 million of variable rate debt attributable to changes in the benchmark one-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) interest rates. The interest rate swaps are not designated for hedge accounting and are carried on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at their fair value. Unrealized gains and losses from changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps, which arise from variations in the forward-looking yield curve, are included in the statement of operations as they occur.
The gains (losses) reflected for the change in value of the interest rate swaps during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 and 2024 are primarily attributable to increases (decreases) in the expectation for one-month SOFR interest rates through June 5, 2027.

The effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2025 and 2024 differed from the United States federal statutory rate of 21.0% due primarily to the impact of non-deductible items, foreign rate differential, changes in unremitted earnings, changes in uncertain tax positions, and changes in the valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets.
As of October 31, 2025, we had $74.6 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. Most of our cash and cash equivalents are held at large financial institutions with high rating agency designations, and our exposure to regional banks is not significant. Our investment policy is approved by the Board and reviewed annually by the Audit Committee. Our current investment policy’s primary objectives when investing available cash are in order of importance: (1) preservation of capital and protection of principal; (2) maintenance of liquidity that is sufficient to meet cash flow needs; and (3) maximize rate of return. Our cash requirements from period to period vary depending on factors such as the growth of the business, changes in working capital needs and capital expenditures. We have funded operations primarily through the use of cash collected from our customers and the proceeds received from the Term Loan Facility (defined below), supplemented with borrowings under our accounts receivable facility (described below). Based on our current cash flow budgets and forecasts of both short-term and long-term liquidity needs, we anticipate we will have sufficient internal and external sources of liquidity to fund operations and anticipated working capital and other expected cash needs for at least the next twelve months, as well as for the foreseeable future, with capital sources currently available. Specifically, we believe cash flow from operating activities, together with cash on hand and availability under our accounts receivable facility, will be sufficient to fund our anticipated working capital needs, planned capital spending, contractual obligations and other cash requirements, including debt repayments and finance costs. While our Term Loan Facility does include restrictions on the ability of our guarantor subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other intercompany payments to us, these limitations are subject to certain qualifications and exceptions, which are expected to permit distributions to enable us to make required principal and interest payments on our indebtedness. However, in the event we are not able to receive cash from our subsidiaries, we will be unable to make the required payments. In addition, although we anticipate we will be able to refinance outstanding obligations under our credit agreement prior to or when they mature, there can be no assurance we will be able to do so, or that the terms of any refinancing will be favorable. Further, we may require additional capital in the future to fund capital expenditures, acquisitions (including contingent consideration payments), strategic transactions or other investments. We will continue to assess our liquidity position and potential sources of supplemental liquidity in view of our objectives, operating performance, economic and capital market conditions and other relevant circumstances. Our operating cash flow performance may also be affected by matters discussed under the Risk Factors section of our 2025 Form 10-K. These risks and uncertainties may adversely affect our long-term liquidity.
On July 16, 2021, Skillsoft Finance II, Inc. (“Skillsoft Finance II”), a subsidiary of Skillsoft Corp., entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among Skillsoft Finance II, as borrower, another subsidiary - Skillsoft Finance I, Inc. (“Holdings”), the lenders party thereto and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, pursuant to which the lenders provided a term loan facility in the original principal amount of $480 million (the “Term Loan Facility”). Term loans under the Term Loan Facility (“Original Term Loans”) were drawn in full on the closing date thereof and are scheduled to mature on July 16, 2028 (the “Maturity Date”).
The First Amendment provided for the incurrence of up to an additional $160 million of Term B-1 Loans (the “Term B-1 Loans”) under the Term Loan Facility, all $160 million of which was drawn in full on the closing date thereof, and are scheduled to mature on the Maturity Date. In addition, the First Amendment, among other things, (a) provided for early opt-in to SOFR subject to a 0.75% floor, for the Original Term Loans (the Original Term Loans together with the Term B-1 Loans, the “Initial Term Loans”) and (b) provided for an applicable margin for the Initial Term Loans of 4.25% with respect to base rate borrowings and 5.25% with respect to SOFR borrowings.
The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary events of default. If an event of default occurs and is continuing (and is not waived), the administrative agent may declare all amounts outstanding thereunder to be immediately due and payable. In the event of payment or other specified defaults, outstanding obligations accrue interest at the then applicable rate plus 2.00%.
All obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement, and the guarantees of those obligations, are secured by substantially all of Skillsoft Finance II’s personal property as well as the assets of each subsidiary guarantor.
We also have access to up to $75.0 million of borrowings under an accounts receivable agreement (the “A/R Agreement”) with First Citizens Bank and Trust Company. Pursuant to this agreement, certain of our accounts receivable are pledged as security for loans made by participating lenders.
When borrowing more than the minimum, the lenders require us to deposit receipts from pledged receivables to a restricted bank account within two business days of receipt. A reconciliation detailing collections against the prior month’s borrowing base and additional receivables to be pledged is submitted monthly. If additional pledged receivables exceed the prior month’s collections, funds from the restricted bank account are returned to us.
Share Repurchase Authorization
On July 10, 2024, the Board authorized and approved a share repurchase authorization for up to $10 million of Skillsoft’s outstanding shares of common stock. The share repurchase authorization commenced on July 11, 2024, and will terminate on the fourth anniversary of such date. Under the share repurchase authorization, we may purchase shares of common stock from time to time in the open market, in private negotiated transactions, or by other means. We cannot predict when or if we will repurchase any shares of common stock. The timing and number of shares of common stock that may be purchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the share price of the common stock, general market conditions, alternative uses for capital, our financial performance, and other considerations. This authorization does not obligate us to purchase any minimum number of shares of common stock, and the authorization may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time without prior notice. As of October 31, 2025, no common stock had been repurchased under the share repurchase authorization.

Cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities
The decrease in operating activity cash flows in the nine months ended October 31, 2025 compared to the corresponding period in 2024, was primarily the result of lower margins in our GK segment, reduced cash collections resulting from the U.S. government shutdown, and the timing of working capital settlements.
Cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities
The increase in cash flows used in investing activities, when comparing the nine months ended October 31, 2025 to the same period in 2024, was due to a $0.8 million increase in purchases of property and equipment, which largely consisted of computer hardware and software. Cash flows used in investing activities in each of the nine months ended October 31, 2025 and 2024 include $13.0 million of cash payments for internally developed software.
Cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities
Cash flows used in financing activities consist primarily of borrowings and repayments under our Amended Credit Agreement and A/R Agreement.
The decrease in cash flows used in financing activities, when comparing the nine months ended October 31, 2025 to the same period in 2024, was due to a $35.0 million reduction in payments on our A/R Agreement, partially offset by an increase in cash used to repurchase shares for tax withholding upon vesting of restricted stock-based awards.
Effect of foreign currency exchange rates on cash and cash equivalents
The effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents represents translation adjustments, which vary with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar.

Contingencies
From time to time, we are a party to or may be threatened with litigation in the ordinary course of our business. We regularly analyze then current information, including, as applicable, our defense and insurance coverage and, as necessary, provide accruals for probable and estimable liabilities for the eventual disposition of these matters. For information regarding legal proceedings see Note 6 to the Interim Financial Statements.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The Interim Financial Statements and the related notes have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our Interim Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of such financial statements, and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses during the applicable reporting period. We regularly reevaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to the following: business combinations, revenue recognition, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, the remaining useful lives of capitalized assets, income tax assets and liabilities, and restructuring charges and accruals. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and various other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the amounts of revenues and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The economic environment also impacts certain estimates and discount rates necessary to prepare our financial statements, including significant estimates and discount rates applicable to the determination of the fair value used in the impairment testing of our assets. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, or results of operations could be impacted.
Significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Interim Financial Statements are described in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the 2025 AFS. The following is a discussion of accounting estimates which management considers to be “critical,” defined as accounting estimates made in accordance with GAAP that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty, and have had, or are reasonably likely to have, a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
Revenue recognition
Skillsoft enters into contracts that provide customers with access to a broad spectrum of learning options including cloud-based learning content, talent management solutions, virtual, on-demand and classroom training, and individualized coaching. We recognize revenue that reflects the consideration that we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for these services. We apply judgment in determining our customer’s ability and intent to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including the customer’s historical payment experience, credit, or financial information. We are not required to exercise significant judgment in determining the timing for the satisfaction of performance obligations or the transaction price.
While the majority of our revenue relates to SaaS and subscription services where the entire arrangement fee is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contractual term, we sometimes enter into contractual arrangements that have multiple distinct performance obligations, one or more of which have different periods over which the services or products are delivered. These arrangements may include a combination of subscriptions and non-subscription products such as professional services. We allocate the transaction price of the arrangement based on the relative estimated standalone selling price of each distinct performance obligation. Our cloud-based solutions generally do not provide customers with the right to take possession of the software supporting the platform or to download course content without continuing to incur fees for hosting services and, as a result, are accounted for as service arrangements. Access to the platform and course content represents a series of distinct services as we continually provide access to, and fulfill our obligation to, the end customer over the subscription term. The series of distinct services represents a single performance obligation that is satisfied over time. Accordingly, the fixed consideration related to subscription revenue is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term, beginning on the date the service is made available to the customer. Our subscription contracts typically vary from one year to three years. Our cloud-based solutions arrangements are generally non-cancellable and non-refundable.
Revenue from classroom training and individual coaching is recognized in the period in which the services are rendered. Revenue from virtual and on-demand training for time-based access to unlimited sessions is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period these services are available to the customers.
We also sell professional services related to our cloud solutions which are typically considered distinct performance obligations and are recognized over time as services are performed. For fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognized over time based on a measure of progress that reasonably reflects our advancement toward satisfying the performance obligation.
Reimbursements received from customers for out-of-pocket expenses are recorded as revenues, with related costs recorded as cost of revenues. We present revenues net of any taxes collected from customers and remitted to government authorities.
As our contractual agreements predominantly call for advanced billing, contract assets are rarely generated.
Intangible assets, including goodwill
We recognize the excess of the purchase price, plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interest in an acquiree, over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired, which includes the fair value of specifically identifiable intangible assets, as goodwill.
We amortize finite-lived intangible assets, including customer contracts and internally developed software, over their estimated useful life. We review the carrying values of intangible assets subject to amortization at least annually to determine if any adverse conditions exist or a change in circumstances has occurred that indicates impairment or a change in remaining useful life. Conditions that indicate impairment and trigger a more frequent impairment assessment include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change in legal factors or business climate that could affect the value of an asset, or an adverse action or assessment by a regulator.
In addition, we review the carrying values of our indefinite-lived intangible assets, including goodwill and the Skillsoft trademark, during the fourth fiscal quarter of each year for impairment, or more frequently if certain indicators are present or changes in circumstances suggest that impairment may exist and reassess their classification as indefinite-lived assets.
The fair value of our indefinite-lived trademark intangible is determined using an income approach referred to as the relief-from-royalty method. The relief-from-royalty method requires management to estimate the portion of our earnings attributable to this trademark based on a royalty rate we would have paid for the use of the asset if we did not own it. The determination of fair value involves significant estimates and assumptions, including projected revenue growth rates, the royalty savings rate, and the discount rate applied to future cash flows, which are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions. Changes in these key assumptions could materially affect the estimated fair value of the indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset and result in future impairment charges.
If current discount rates rise or if relevant market-based inputs for our impairment assessment worsen, subsequent reviews of goodwill and intangibles could result in impairment. Factors that could result in impairment include, but are not limited to, the following:
| ● |
Prolonged period of our estimated fair value of our reporting units exceeding our market capitalization; |
|
| ● |
Lower expectations for future profitability of bookings or EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure), which in part could be impacted by legislative, regulatory or tax changes that affect the cost of, or demand for, products and services as well as the loss of key personnel; |
|
| ● |
Deterioration in key assumptions used in our income approach estimates of fair value, such as higher discount rates from higher stock market volatility; and |
|
| ● |
Valuations of significant mergers or acquisitions of companies that provide relevant market-based inputs for our impairment assessment that could support less favorable conclusions regarding the estimated fair value of our reporting units. |
As discussed above, during the three months ended October 31, 2025, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge related to our GK reporting unit. After the impairment, we continue to have $8.7 million of goodwill allocated to this reporting unit. The goodwill assigned to this reporting unit is considered at risk of future impairment due to how the reporting unit’s estimated fair value as of October 1, 2025, was used to determine the $8.7 million carrying value. The determination of the GK reporting unit’s fair value involved significant judgment, including the selection of discount rates, long-term growth rates, and projected future cash flows. A further decline in expected operating performance, an increase in the discount rate, continued or additional adverse macroeconomic conditions, or changes in industry trends could negatively affect fair value and may result in additional impairment charge in future periods. We will continue to monitor these factors and will perform interim impairment tests if events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of any reporting unit may no longer be recoverable or in excess of fair value, as applicable.
For additional information on goodwill and intangible assets see Note 3 to the Interim Financial Statements.
Income taxes
We provide for deferred income taxes resulting from temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes as compared to tax purposes, using rates expected to be in effect when such differences reverse. We record valuation allowances to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
We follow the authoritative guidance on accounting for and disclosure of uncertainty in tax positions which requires us to determine whether a tax position of Skillsoft is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals of litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. For tax positions meeting the more likely than not threshold, the tax amount recognized in the financial statements is reduced to the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon the ultimate settlement with the relevant taxing authority. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are included in the caption “provision for (benefits from) income taxes” in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The effect of recently issued accounting pronouncements is set forth in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the Interim Financial Statements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We have exposures to market risks in the ordinary course of our business, including the effects of interest rate changes and foreign currency fluctuations. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to our primary market risk exposures or our management of such exposures during the nine months ended October 31, 2025 from the description set forth in Item 7A of the 2025 Form 10-K.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk of financial loss due to adverse changes in the value of assets and liabilities due to movements in interest rates. We are exposed to interest rate risk arising from our interest sensitive long-term debt and to a lesser extent our cash and cash equivalents.
Based on amounts outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement as of October 31, 2025, taking into account the two interest rate swap agreements discussed below, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates would result in approximately $2.9 million additional or lower pre-tax annual interest expense. To manage our exposure to interest rate risk on our long-term debt, we entered into two fixed-rate interest rate swap agreements to change the SOFR-based component of the interest rate on $300.0 million of variable rate debt to a fixed rate. For further information regarding our long-term debt and interest rate swap agreements, see Note 7 “Long-Term Debt” and Note 11 “Fair Value Measurements”, respectively, to the Interim Financial Statements.
Based on the balance of our cash and cash equivalents, as of October 31, 2025, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates would result in an approximately $0.4 million increase or decrease, respectively, on our annual pre-tax interest income.
Our interest rate swaps are not designated for hedge accounting and are carried on the consolidated balance sheet at their fair value. Unrealized gains and losses from changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps are included in the statement of operations as they occur. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates would result in an approximately $4.6 million increase or decrease, respectively, on our fair value adjustment of our interest rate swaps at a point in time.
Foreign Currency Risk
Our reporting currency and the functional currency of our wholly owned foreign subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may cause us to recognize transaction gains and losses in the caption “other income (expenses), net” in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. We are exposed to foreign currency fluctuations, including the Euro, pound sterling, Canadian dollar, Australian dollar, Indian rupee, Singapore dollar and related currencies. To date, we have not entered into any hedging arrangements with respect to foreign currency risk or other derivative financial instruments, although we may choose to do so in the future. A hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in current exchange rates would have resulted in an impact of approximately $2.8 million on our annual pre-tax income (loss).
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of October 31, 2025. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of October 31, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d‑15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Management recognizes that Skillsoft’s internal control over financial reporting cannot prevent or detect all errors and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to use judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Incorporated by reference herein is information regarding legal proceedings as set forth under “Litigation” contained in Note 6 – “Commitments and Contingencies” to the Interim Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Form 10-Q.
There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item IA of our 2025 Form 10-K.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
None.
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES.
None.
ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES.
Not applicable.
10b5-1 Trading Plans
During the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2025, director or officer (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 16a-1(f)) of Skillsoft adopted or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as each term is defined in Item 408(a) and 408 (c), respectively, of Regulation S-K.
