(a) During the year ended March 31, 2026, upon completion of the purchase price allocation, the Company allocated the goodwill from the XRM Acquisition to the ERP-CAN CGU for the purpose of impairment testing. There were no other changes to the purchase price allocation.
During the year, management concluded that profitability targets not being achieved for the Canada and Industry Solutions CGUs constituted an indication of impairment.
Consequently, management performed impairment tests as at September 30, 2025 for the Canada and Industry Solutions CGUs. As a result of the impairment tests performed, management concluded that the recoverable amounts of the Canada and Industry Solutions CGUs were less than their carrying amounts, resulting in an impairment of goodwill of $26,500,000 and $9,723,000, respectively, and an impairment of intangibles of $1,805,000 for the Industry Solutions CGU as at September, 30 2025.
The Company also completed annual impairment tests as at March 31, 2026 and 2025 for all its CGUs and concluded that no additional impairment occurred. In addition, prior to the Datum transaction, an impairment test was performed and an additional impairment of intangibles of $3,100,000 was recorded for the Industry Solutions CGU’s (note 4).
In assessing whether goodwill is impaired, the carrying amount of the CGU was compared to its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of the CGU is based on the higher of the value in use and fair value less costs of disposal.
9. GOODWILL (CONT’D)
The recoverable amount of each CGU was determined based on the value-in-use calculations. The value-in-use calculations covered a three-year forecast, followed by an extrapolation of future expected net operating cash flows for the remaining useful lives using the long-term growth rate determined by management. The present value of the future expected operating cash flows of each CGU is determined by applying a suitable pre-tax WACC reflecting current market assessments of the time value of money and the CGU-specific risks.
Key assumptions used in impairment testing by CGU are as follows:

(b) The long-term growth rate is based on published industry research.
(c) The Company had not completed an annual impairment test as at March 31, 2025 for the ERP-CAN CGU, as it was pending completion of the purchase price allocation from the XRM Acquisition.
Varying the key assumptions in the values of the recoverable amount calculations, individually, as indicated below, for the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, assuming all other variables remain constant, would result in the recoverable amounts being equal to the carrying amounts.

(e) The recoverable amount of the EPM-US CGU is not sensitive to its long-term growth rate assumption.
Furthermore, decreases of 1% and 3% of the three-year forecast would result in the recoverable amounts being equal to the carrying amounts for the Canada and ERP-CAN CGUs, respectively (March 31, 2025 - 4% and 8% for the Canada and Industry Solutions CGUs, respectively).
