Computer Modelling Group Ltd. Announces Completion of Substantial Issuer Bid

CALGARY, Alberta, Sept. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Computer Modelling Group Ltd. (“CMG” or the “Company”) (TSX: CMG), today announced that it has taken up and paid for 4,444,444 of its common shares (“Shares”) at a price of C$4.50 per Share (the “Purchase Price”) under CMG’s substantial issuer bid (the “SIB”) to repurchase for cancellation a number of its Shares for an aggregate purchase price not to exceed C$20 million.

Final Results of SIB

The Shares purchased under the SIB represent an aggregate purchase price of approximately C$19,999,998 and approximately 5.7% of the total number of CMG’s issued and outstanding Shares as of September 21, 2026. After giving effect to the SIB, CMG will have approximately 73.6 million Shares issued and outstanding.

Based on the final calculations of Olympia Trust Company (the “Depositary”) as depositary for the SIB, a total of 4,657,844 Shares were tendered to the SIB pursuant to auction tenders and purchase price tenders, of which 3,933,679 Shares were taken up and purchased. Since the SIB was oversubscribed, shareholders who made auction tenders at or below the Purchase Price and shareholders who made, or were deemed to have made, purchase price tenders had approximately 84% of their successfully tendered Shares purchased by CMG (other than “odd lot” tenders, which were not subject to proration). In addition, 8,966,715 Shares were tendered pursuant to proportionate tenders, of which 510,765 Shares were taken up and purchased.

Payment and settlement of the purchased Shares will be effected by the Depositary on or about September 30, 2026 in accordance with the SIB and applicable law. Any Shares not purchased, including Shares invalidly tendered, will be returned to shareholders promptly by the Depositary.

The full details of the SIB are described in the offer to purchase and issuer bid circular dated August 14, 2026, as well as the related letter of transmittal and notice of guaranteed delivery, copies of which were filed and are available under our profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

To assist shareholders in determining the tax consequences of the SIB, CMG estimates that for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada), the paid-up capital per Share is approximately C$1.025. Given that the Purchase Price exceeds the paid-up capital per Share, shareholders who have sold Shares to CMG under the SIB will be deemed to have received a taxable dividend as a result of such sale for Canadian federal income tax purposes equal to the amount by which the Purchase Price exceeds the paid-up capital per Share. The dividend deemed to have been paid by CMG to Canadian resident persons is designated as an “eligible dividend” for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and any corresponding provincial and territorial tax legislation.

The “specified amount” for purposes of subsection 191(4) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) is C$3.89, being the closing trading price for the Shares on the TSX on September 21, 2026.

Shareholders should consult with their own tax and other advisors with respect to the income tax consequences of the disposition of their Shares under the SIB.
