These include non-GAAP financial measures, non-GAAP financial ratios, and supplementary financial measures. These measures may not be comparable with similar measures presented by other companies. Further information on these financial measures can be found in the "Terminology and Non-GAAP & Other Financial Measures" section in Bird's most recently filed Management's Discussion & Analysis for the period ended December 31, 2023, prepared as of March 5, 2024.

The Company's Backlog equates to the Company's remaining performance obligations as disclosed in the Company's most recent notes to the financial statements filed on SEDAR+. Additions to remaining performance obligations are also referred to by the Company as "Securements". "Pending Backlog" is a supplementary financial measure representing the total potential revenue of awarded but not contracted projects including where the Company has been named preferred proponent, where a contract has not been executed and where the letter of intent or agreement received is non-binding. It may also include amounts for agency relationship construction management projects, pre-construction activities and estimated future work orders to be performed as part of multi-year MSA, maintenance, task order, and similar contractual arrangements. "Gross Profit Percentage" is a supplementary financial measure representing the percentage derived by dividing gross profit by construction revenue. "Adjusted Earnings" is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as IFRS net income excluding asset impairments, acquisition, integration and restructuring (as defined in accordance with IFRS) costs and the income tax effect of these costs. "Adjusted Earnings Per Share" is a non-GAAP financial ratio calculated by dividing Adjusted Earnings by the basic weighted average number of shares. "Adjusted EBITDA" is a non-GAAP financial measure representing earnings before taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization, finance and other costs, finance income, asset impairment charges, gain or loss on sale of property and equipment, restructuring and severance costs outside of normal course, and acquisition, integration and restructuring (as defined in accordance with IFRS) costs.

"Adjusted Net Debt" is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as current and long-term loans and borrowings as disclosed in the Company's statement of financial position, less accessible cash, as disclosed in the Company's notes to the financial statements. Management uses this as a measure of financial leverage and is part of its assessment of the Company's capital structure. At December 31, 2023, Adjusted Net Debt of $(6,958) is calculated as: Loans and borrowings (non-current) $64,621 plus Current portion of loans and borrowings $8,305 minus Accessible cash $79,884.

Management uses this as a measure of financial leverage and is part of its assessment of the Company's capital structure.

The Investing in Canada Plan, launched in 2016, laid out federal government commitments to invest more than $180 billion over 12 years (2016-2028) in public transit projects, green infrastructure, social infrastructure, trade and transportation routes, and Canada's rural and northern communities -$150 billion invested to date. $125 to $140 billion Double Electricity Supply $110 to $270 billion +$70 billion >$40 billion 2022 Federal Budget estimated the investment in net-zero transition requires $125 billion to $140 billion annually through 2050. Canada needs to roughly double its electricity supply. Electrification requires investment in energy generation projects, including expanding clean energy and improving power distribution and transmission systems. Estimates of Canada's "infrastructure deficit" range from $110- $270 billion. Additional investments are required to improve energy efficiency - residential and commercial buildings are Canada's third-largest source of greenhouse gases. Public transportation opportunities include Ontario's planned $70 billion for transit investments over the next ten years, Canada's $15 billion for public transit over the next eight years, as well as significant spending across the balance of provinces. Nuclear opportunities are significant, notably the recently proposed Bruce Nuclear Expansion, the Pickering Refurbishment, and SMR Infrastructure initiatives.
