The Amended NCIB will increase the maximum number of common shares that may be repurchased from 1,600,000, representing 3.9% of the “public float” of common shares as of August 12, 2025, to 4,118,199, representing 10% of the “public float” of common shares as of August 12, 2025, the maximum amount allowable under the rules of the TSX. No other terms of the NCIB have been amended. Under the NCIB, as of May 31, 2026, FirstService has repurchased for cancellation an aggregate of 931,182 common shares at an average price of US$132.38 per share (or a total of US$123.3 million). The Amended NCIB, which began on August 26, 2025, and will end no later than August 25, 2026, is being conducted on the open market through the facilities of the TSX, alternative Canadian Trading Systems and/or The NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”). The actual number of common shares which may be purchased pursuant to the Amended NCIB and the timing of any such purchases will continue to be determined by senior management of FirstService. The average daily trading volume on the TSX from February 1 to July 31, 2025 was 95,488 common shares. Daily purchases on the TSX under the Amended NCIB will continue to be limited to 23,872 common shares, other than block purchases. Subject to certain exceptions for block purchases, the maximum number of common shares which can be purchased per day on NASDAQ will continue to be 25% of the average daily trading volume for the four calendar weeks preceding the date of purchase. All shares purchased by FirstService under the Amended NCIB will be cancelled. FirstService may purchase its common shares under the Amended NCIB, from time to time, if it believes that the market price of its common shares is attractive and that the purchase would be an appropriate use of corporate funds and in the best interests of FirstService. FirstService may also purchase its common shares under the Amended NCIB in order to mitigate the dilutive effect of stock options issued under its stock option plan. In connection with the Amended NCIB becoming effective, FirstService has entered into an automatic share purchase plan (“ASPP”) with a designated broker to facilitate the purchase of common shares under the Amended NCIB, including at times when FirstService would ordinarily not be permitted to purchase its common shares due to regulatory restrictions or self-imposed blackout periods. Purchases made pursuant to the ASPP, if any, will be made by the designated broker based upon the parameters prescribed by the TSX, NASDAQ, applicable Canadian and U.S. securities laws and the terms of the written agreement between FirstService and its designated broker. The ASPP constitutes an “automatic plan" for purposes of applicable Canadian securities legislation and has been pre-cleared by the TSX and will become effective on June 4, 2026, concurrently with the Amended NCIB becoming effective, and will terminate when the Amended NCIB ends. All purchases made under the ASPP will be included in computing the number of common shares purchased under the Amended NCIB.
