All such forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the “safe -harbour ” provisions of applicable Canadian securities laws. The Company cautions that, by their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and that its actual actions and/or results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements, or could affect the extent to which a particular projection materializes. Forward-looking statements are presented for the purpose of assisting investors and others in understanding certain key elements of the Company’s current objectives, strategic priorities, expectations and plans, and in obtaining a better understanding of the Company’s business and anticipated operating environment. Readers are cautioned that such information may not be appropriate for other purposes. Forward-looking statements made in this presentation are based on a number of assumptions believed by the Company to be reasonable as at the date hereof. The assumptions are set out SNCL Projects throughout the Company’s 2019 Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). If these assumptions are inaccurate, the Company’s actual results could differ materially from those expressed or Operating Cash Adjusted Net Cash Balance implied in such forward-looking statements. In addition, important risk factors could cause the Company’s assumptions and estimates to be inaccurate and actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risk factors are set out in the Company’s 2019 MD&A. Flows Income from E&C Increased Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Additional IFRS Measures $336 million, $78.9 million , 87% year-over-year, net SNCL Projects The Company reports its financial results in accordance with IFRS. However, the following non-IFRS measures and additional IFRS measures are used by the Company: Adjusted net income from Segment EBIT of highest quarterly up from a loss of $284.1 recourse debt to EBITDA E&C, Adjusted diluted EPS from E&C, Adjusted net income from Capital, Adjusted diluted EPS from Capital, Adjusted consolidated diluted EPS, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA from E&C, Segment -$28M, performance EBIT and Segment EBITDA. Additional details for these non-IFRS measures and additional IFRS measures, as well as where the reconciliation to the most comparable measure calculated in year-over- year operating cash flow since ratio now 2.1x better than the past accordance with IFRS are, can be found in Section 14 of the 2019 SNC- Lavalin’s MD&A, which is available in the Investors section of the Company’s website at www.snclavalin.com. Non-IFRS Q4 2017 financial measures do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes that, in addition four quarters to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, these non-IFRS measures provide additional insight into the Company’s financial results and certain investors may use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance from period to period. However, these non-IFRS financial measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. 2
