Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements |
Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements(Unaudited)(Unless otherwise stated, all tabular amounts are in millions of Canadian dollars) The consolidated interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the board of directors on November 10, 2022. NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Nature of operationsCAE equips people in critical roles with the expertise and solutions to create a safer world. As a technology company, CAE digitalizes the physical world by deploying simulation training and critical operations support solutions. |
CAE Inc. and its subsidiaries’ (or the Company) operations are managed through three segments: (i) |
Civil Aviation – Provides comprehensive training solutions for flight, cabin, maintenance and ground personnel in commercial, business and helicopter aviation, a complete range of flight simulation training devices, ab initio pilot training and crew sourcing services, as well as end-to-end digitally-enabled crew management, training operations solutions and optimization software; |
(ii) | Defense and Security – A platform agnostic, global training and simulation pure play focusing on ensuring mission readiness by integrating systems and solutions across all five domains for government organizations responsible for public safety; |
(iii) Healthcare – Provides healthcare students and clinical professionals innovative, integrated and virtual education and training |
solutions, including interventional and imaging simulations, curricula, audiovisual debriefing solutions, centre management platforms and patient simulators. |
CAE is a limited liability company incorporated and domiciled in Canada. The address of the main office is 8585 Côte-de-Liesse, Saint-Laurent, Québec, Canada, H4T 1G6. CAE common shares are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) and on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Seasonality and cyclicality of the businessThe Company’s business operating segments are affected in varying degrees by market cyclicality and/or seasonality. As such, operating performance over a given interim period should not necessarily be considered indicative of full fiscal year performance. The Company’s business, revenues and cash flows are affected by certain seasonal trends. In the Civil Aviation segment, the level of training delivered is driven by the availability of pilots to train, which tends to be lower in the second quarter as pilots are flying more and training less and thus, resulting in lower revenues. In the Defense and Security segment, revenue and cash collection tend to be higher in the second half of the year as contract awards and availability of funding are influenced by the government’s budget cycle, which in the U.S. is based on a September year-end. |
However, due to the continued impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, results may not follow historical patterns. |
Basis of preparationThe key accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those disclosed in Note 1 of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2022. These policies have been consistently applied to all periods presented. Certain amendments to accounting standards were applied for the first time on April 1, 2022, but did not have an impact on the consolidated interim financial statements of the Company. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s most recent annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2022. The consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Part I of the CPA Canada Handbook |
| - Accounting, International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards |
Board (IASB) applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. |
The functional and presentation currency of CAE Inc. is the Canadian dollar. |
Use of judgements, estimates and assumptionsThe preparation of the consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies, the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures at the date of the consolidated interim financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the period reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Changes will be reported in the period in which they are identified. In preparing these consolidated interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements of the year ended March 31, 2022. |

NOTE 2 – BUSINESS COMBINATIONS |
During the six months ended September 30, 2022, the Company completed its final assessment of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed of L3Harris Technologies’ Military Training business (L3H MT) acquired in fiscal 2022. |
During the six months ended September 30, 2022, adjustments to preliminary purchase price allocations of acquisitions realized in fiscal 2022 resulted in increases of intangible assets of $19.2 million, current liabilities of $3.3 million, other long-term liabilities of $2.8 million and other long-term assets of $1.2 million, and decreases of current assets of $12.1 million and deferred tax assets of $2.2 million. |
During the six months ended September 30, 2022, cash considerations of $6.4 million were paid for an acquisition realized in fiscal 2021. |
NOTE 3 – OPERATING SEGMENTS AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION |
The Company elected to organize its operating segments principally on the basis of its customer markets. The Company manages its operations through its three segments. Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. |
The Company has decided to disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers by segment, by products and services and by geographic regions as the Company believes it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. |
Results by segmentThe profitability measure employed by the Company for making decisions about allocating resources to segments and assessing segment performance is adjusted segment operating income. Adjusted segment operating income is calculated by taking operating income and excluding restructuring, integration and acquisition costs, and impairments and other gains and losses arising from significant strategic transactions or specific events, which gives an indication of the profitability of each segment because it does not include the impact of items not specifically related to the segment’s performance. |
The accounting principles used to prepare the information by operating segments are the same as those used to prepare the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The method used for the allocation of assets jointly used by operating segments and costs and liabilities jointly incurred (mostly corporate costs) between operating segments is based on the level of utilization when determinable and measurable, otherwise the allocation is based on a proportion of each segment’s cost of sales and revenue. |

The Company's participation in the CEWS program ceased on June 5, 2021 and accordingly, the Company did not claim any CEWS benefits for wages and salary costs incurred subsequent to June 5, 2021. |
During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company received no government contributions related to COVID-19 support programs. During six months ended September 30, 2022, the Company received no government contributions related to COVID-19 support programs (2021 – $14.9 million received, mainly provided as a reimbursement of employee wages, of which $1.3 million were credited to non-financial assets and $13.6 million were credited to income). |

NOTE 10 – CONTINGENCIES |
During fiscal 2015, the Company received tax notices of reassessment from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) in connection with the Company’s characterization of amounts received under the Strategic Aerospace and Defence Initiative (SADI) program during its 2012 and 2013 taxation years. Under the SADI program, the Company received funding from the Government of Canada for its eligible spending in R&D projects, in the form of an unconditionally repayable interest-bearing loan, which the Company commenced repayment of the principal and interest in fiscal 2016 in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The CRA has taken the position that amounts received under the SADI program qualify as government assistance. The Company filed notices of objection against the CRA’s reassessments and subsequently filed a notice of appeal to the Tax Court of Canada. |
On September 14, 2021, the Tax Court of Canada ruled in favour of the CRA’s contention and held that the amounts received under the SADI program qualified as government assistance. The Company subsequently filed an appeal to the Federal Court of Appeal against the Tax Court’s decision. On October 19, 2022, the Federal Court of Appeal issued a decision in which it rejected the appeal. The Company intends to use the allowed 60-day period from the notification of the ruling to complete its assessment of the available options through the remainder of the appeal process. |
The Company has not recognized the impacts of the CRA’s reassessments in its consolidated financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2022. As the appeal did not aim to reduce the Company’s final tax bill but rather challenge the timing of deductions based on fiscal characterization, the impact of the reassessments would not result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s overall finance and income tax expense nor income tax payable, but would, however, affect the timing of payment of such tax. |
NOTE 11 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
The fair value of a financial instrument is determined by reference to the available market information at the reporting date. When no active market exists for a financial instrument, the Company determines the fair value of that instrument based on valuation methodologies as discussed below. In determining assumptions required under a valuation model, the Company primarily uses external, readily observable market data inputs. Assumptions or inputs that are not based on observable market data incorporate the Company’s best estimates of market participant assumptions. Counterparty credit risk and the Company’s own credit risk are taken into account in estimating the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities. The following assumptions and valuation methodologies have been used to measure the fair value of financial instruments:(i) |
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to their short-term maturities; |
(ii) | The fair value of derivative instruments, which include forward contracts, swap agreements and embedded derivatives accounted for separately and is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows using an appropriate interest rate yield curve and forward foreign exchange rate. Assumptions are based on market conditions prevailing at each reporting date. The fair value of derivative instruments reflect the estimated amounts that the Company would receive or pay to settle the contracts at the reporting date; |
(iii) The fair value of the equity investments, which does not have a readily available market value, is estimated using a discounted |
cash flow model, which includes some assumptions that are not based on observable market prices or rates; |
(iv) The fair value of non-current receivables is estimated based on discounted cash flows using current interest rates for instruments |
with similar risks and remaining maturities; |
(v) The fair value of long-term debts, royalty obligations and other non-current liabilities are estimated based on discounted cash |
flows using current interest rates for instruments with similar risks and remaining maturities; |
(vi) The fair value of the contingent considerations arising on business combinations are based on the estimated amount and timing |
of projected cash flows, the probability of the achievement of the criteria on which the contingency is based and the risk-adjusted discount rate used to present value the probability-weighted cash flows. |
Fair value hierarchyThe fair value hierarchy reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements and has the following levels: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices |
| in markets that are not active) or indirectly (i.e. quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities); |
Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). |
Each type of fair value is categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. |
