TORONTO: Docebo Inc. (NASDAQ: DCBO; TSX:DCBO) (“Docebo” or the “Company”), a leading learning platform provider with a foundation in artificial intelligence (AI) and innovation, announced financial results for the three months and fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. All amounts are expressed in US dollars unless otherwise stated.
"Q4 was one of Docebo's strongest quarters on record, with gross bookings performance being the strongest since 2021 and Adjusted EBITDA margins reaching 21.2%, both reflecting the compounding payoff of the AI-First strategy we've been executing against," said Alessio Artuffo, President and CEO of Docebo. "The caliber of enterprise customers who chose Docebo this quarter, validates that we are winning where it matters most. With 365Talents, we enter 2026 as a true multi-product company, closing the loop between skills intelligence and learning execution for our customers. We are not reacting to the AI moment, we have been building for it."

Fourth Quarter 2025 Customer Updates
Update on Substantial Issuer Bid
The Company also announced today, in accordance with U.S. securities laws, that it has waived the “share price condition” related to its previously announced substantial issuer bid (the “Offer”) under which the Company has offered to repurchase for cancellation up to US$60,000,000 of its outstanding common shares (“Common Shares”) at a price of US$20.40 per Common Share.
The Offer provides that the Company shall not be required to accept for purchase any deposited Common Shares, and may withdraw, terminate, extend, vary or cancel the Offer if, at any time there shall have occurred a decrease in excess of 10% of the market price of the Common Shares on the TSX or Nasdaq Global Select Market measured from the close of business on February 1, 2026. Notwithstanding that this has occurred, the Company remains committed to the Offer, as it believes that the current trading price of the Common Shares is not fully reflective of the value of the Company’s business and future prospects. All other terms and conditions of the Offer remain unchanged, and the Company and the Board continue to believe that the Offer is in the best interests of the Company and represents a desirable use of a portion of its existing liquidity.
The Offer will expire on March 10, 2026, unless extended, varied or withdrawn. Further details regarding the Offer can be found in the Company’s Offer to Purchase and Circular dated February 1, 2026, which are available free of charge under the Company’s SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov. Shareholders who wish to deposit Common Shares under the Offer and who hold Common Shares registered in the name of an investment dealer, stock broker, bank, trust company or other nominee, should immediately contact their nominee in order to take the necessary steps to be able to deposit the Common Shares held under the Offer.
The foregoing is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to buy or the solicitation of an offer to sell Common Shares. The solicitation and the offer to buy Common Shares will only be made pursuant to the Offer documents, which have been filed with the applicable securities regulators in Canada and the United States.

The information in this section is forward-looking. Please see the sections entitled “Non-IFRS Measures and Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures” and “Key Performance Indicators” in this press release for how we define “Adjusted EBITDA” and the section entitled “Forward-Looking Information.” A reconciliation of forward-looking “Adjusted EBITDA” to the most directly comparable IFRS measure is not available without unreasonable effort, as certain items cannot be reasonably predicted because of their high variability, complexity and low visibility. Docebo believes that this type of guidance provides useful insight into the anticipated performance of its business.
