NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
Everbridge Holdings Limited ("the Company") is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office and principal place of business is 5th Floor 10 Brook Street, Mayfair, London, United Kingdom, W1S 1BG.
2.Accounting policies
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires Group management to exercise judgement in applying the Group's accounting policies (see note 3).
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of Comprehensive Income in these financial statements.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The consolidated financial statements present the results of the Company and its own subsidiaries ("the Group") as if they form a single entity. Intercompany transactions and balances between group companies are therefore eliminated in full.
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of business combinations using the purchase method. In the Balance Sheet, the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities are initially recognised at their fair values at the acquisition date. The results of acquired operations are included in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the date on which control is obtained. They are deconsolidated from the date control ceases.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
As at 31 December 2025, the Company had net current liabilities of £5,507,194 (2024 - £5,951,844) and net assets of £54,421,364 (2024 - £47,536,029). During the year, the Company made profits after tax of £8,015,934 (2024 – losses after tax of £1,130,599).
As at 31 December 2025, the Group had net current liabilities of £43,852,349 (2024 - £47,430,442) and net liabilities of £21,248,338 (2024 – net liabilities of £16,615,057). During the year, the Group made losses after tax of £29,495,294 (2024 – £13,777,959). Everbridge Holdings Limited ("EHL") is a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of Everbridge, Inc. ("Everbridge"). The EHL Group operates as part of the Everbridge Group. The increase in costs comparative to revenue in the current period is related to the recent period of growth and expansion through acquisition and it is now followed by a time of consolidating the new assets as part of an ongoing group reorganization project. Everbridge, Inc. has provided a letter of support to EHL, confirming that it will continue to provide financial and other support for EHL and its subsidiaries for at least the next 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. At 31 December 2025, the EHL Group owed £69,156,935 (2024 - £65,360,295) to Everbridge, Inc., which is included in creditors falling due within one year. Everbridge, Inc. has confirmed to EHL Group that these amounts will only be called for repayment when it is determined that the subsidiaries have sufficient capacity to do so without affecting their ability to continue trading. The EHL Group has no debt in the form of loans to any third parties outside of the Group. The directors are satisfied that Everbridge, Inc. has adequate resources and liquidity to offer this support to EHL Group. Consequently, they have prepared these financial statements on a going concern basis.

Functional and presentation currency
The Company’s functional and presentational currency is Sterling.
Transactions and balances
For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations are translated from their functional currency to GBP using the closing exchange rate. Income and expenses are translated using the average rate for the period. Exchange differences arising on the translation of group companies are recognised in other comprehensive income. If the Group disposes of the foreign operation the cumulative exchange difference is not reclassified to profit or loss but is transferred within equity to retained earnings.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Revenue for licenses and critical driver development is recognised when the software is delivered to the customer (i.e. once the licenses reach "beneficial use" as expected in the context of the arrangement). Where licenses are sold for a limited time (Software as a Service) it is recognised on a straight line basis over the length of the license. Revenue for professional services is recognised over the period in which the services are provided and at the reporting date an estimate of completion is based on the number hours incurred delivering the service against the total estimate hours expected to complete the service. Revenue for support and maintenance is recognised on a straight line basis over the fixed term of the contract.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
All share options and other equity based compensation schemes are settled in the equity of the ultimate parent company, Everbridge, Inc., and a capital contribution is recognised in line with the amounts charged to profit or loss over the vesting period. Non-market vesting conditions are taken into account by adjusting the number of equity instruments expected to vest at each balance sheet date so that, ultimately, the cumulative amount recognised over the vesting period is based on the number of options that eventually vest. Where the terms and conditions of options are modified before they vest, the increase in the fair value of the options, measured immediately before and after the modification, is also charged to profit or loss over the remaining vesting period. Cancellations or settlements (including those resulting from employee redundancies) are treated as an acceleration of vesting and the amount that would have been recognised over the the remaining vesting period is recognised immediately. Shares withheld to meet employee's tax liabilities (resulting in a net share settlement of share award) are accounted for as cash settled share based payments.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Provisions are made where an event has taken place that gives the Company a legal or constructive obligation that probably requires settlement by a transfer of economic benefit, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Provisions are charged as an expense to profit or loss in the year that the Company becomes aware of the obligation, and are measured at the best estimate at the reporting date of the expenditure required to settle the obligation, taking into account relevant risks and uncertainties. When payments are eventually made, they are charged to the provision carried in the Statement of Financial Position.

Goodwill
Other intangible assets
All intangible assets are considered to have a finite useful life. If a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made, the useful life shall not exceed ten years.
The estimated useful lives range as follows:
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
Fixed asset investments Fixed asset investments are measured at cost less provision for impairment. When assessing the investments for impairment, management apply judgement in determining whether there have been any indications of impairment (or reversals of impairment) and a reliable basis to determine the recoverable amount of the investment which involves estimates of future cash flows and events. Certain assumptions are made in the impairment models, such as revenue growth rates, inflation, discounts rates, and terminal growth rates, all of which require a high degree of judgement and estimation. Based on the assessments performed, the directors have concluded that an impairment is required and have recognised an impairment charge of £10,917,763 (2024 - £1,565,381) and the reversal of impairment loss of £18,489,047 (2024 - £879,432) in respect of fixed asset investments at the balance sheet date. Goodwill amortisation Goodwill arising on acquisitions is amortised over its estimated useful economic life. Determining this useful life requires judgement, as the economic benefits obtained from the acquired businesses are not always readily determinable by reference to contractual or legal rights. In determining the amortisation period applied, the directors have considered the expected longevity of the acquired businesses, their market positions, the persistence of customer relationships, anticipated technological or regulatory changes, and the stability of forecast future cash flows. On the basis of these factors, the directors consider the amortisation periods applied to goodwill to be appropriate and representative of the period over which economic benefits are expected to be realised. Goodwill amortisation of £5,537,563 (2024 - £5,622,949) has been recognised in the year.

3.Judgments in applying accounting policies (continued)
Goodwill is tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The assessment is performed at the level of the relevant cash generating units to which the goodwill has been allocated. Estimating the recoverable amount of a cash generating unit requires management to exercise judgement and make estimates relating to future cash flows derived from the unit. These cash flows are based on management’s latest approved budgets and forecasts, typically covering a period of four years, with cash flows beyond this period extrapolated using a terminal growth rate. The key assumptions used in impairment testing include: These assumptions are inherently uncertain and are influenced by external market conditions, competitive dynamics, and the future performance of the underlying businesses. While management believes that the assumptions used are reasonable and supportable, changes in these assumptions could have a material impact on the impairment assessment. Based on the impairment reviews performed, the directors have concluded that the goodwill should be impaired by £1,958,718. Bad debt provision The Group makes an estimate of the recoverable value of trade and other debtors. When assessing the impairment of trade and other debtors, management considers factors including the current credit rating of the debtor, the ageing profile of debtors, whether the debtor is covered by insurance and historical experience. The carrying value of the bad debt provision at the year end was £1,281,069 (2024 - £1,289,625). Share based payments The directors assess the estimated forfeiture rate of awards granted to employees based on historical and forecast employee retention rates and, where applicable, the likelihood of achieving performance conditions. Following the acquisition of the Everbridge group by Thoma Bravo on 2 July 2024, the previous equity-settled share-based payment arrangements ceased to be equity settled and outstanding awards were modified such that they became cash-settled awards. The related liability was recognised within other creditors. At 31 December 2025, the carrying value of this liability was £Nil (2024: £2,123,558). During the prior year, a new cash-settled share-based payment scheme was introduced for certain employees of the Group. The awards vest over the applicable service period and are subject to continued employment and, for certain awards, specified performance conditions. The associated liability is remeasured at each reporting date until settlement, with changes recognised in the profit and loss account. Further details of the scheme are included in Note 24. At 31 December 2025, the carrying value of the associated liability was £690,765 (2024: £Nil), which is included within amounts owed to group undertakings

Software licenses and support sold for a pre-agreed period of time including those sold as "software as a service" are recognised evenly over the length of the license. Where such sales are invoiced in advance, the residual amount is recognised as deferred revenue at the year-end. This is calculated by time-apportioning the revenue over the length of the license. The carrying value of deferred income at the year end was £28,955,591 (2024 - £27,470,542). Revenue recognition - Ancillary support and installation Some ancillary support and installation services are also provided by the Group. Due to the nature of differing contract timescales it is routinely necessary to estimate contract costs to complete and future revenues expected from these contracts. These estimates are based on all information available to management including the position of contracts at the financial year-end and at contract completion and latest correspondence with customers and suppliers, drawing on the experience and opinions of contract managers. Where such services are provided in advance of being invoiced, the revenue from services provided to the year end is recognised as accrued revenue. The carrying value of accrued income at the year end was £3,049,356 (2024 - £4,988,420). Defined benefit plans The estimate of the present value of obligations under defined benefit plans relies on actuarial assumptions made by the directors, including the future salary increases and expected service length of employees in the plan. The directors consider that any such estimates would not materially affect the obligation and so have not made any adjustment for actuarial assumptions. The carrying value of obligations to defined benefit pension plans at the year end was £370,995 (2024 - £319,072). Balances owed to fellow group companies Management have presented balances due from fellow group companies gross of balances due to fellow group entities in the financial statements as they consider this the most appropriate presentation given there is no formal legal right of set-off. However, should any of the debts become impaired in their own right, group management would likely choose to set these debts off against those owed to fellow group companies. The carrying value of amounts owed to fellow group companies at the year end was £69,156,935 (2024 - £65,360,295). The carrying value of amounts owed by fellow group companies at the year end was £19,202,931 (2024 - £15,915,424).

Share-Based Compensation
Management Incentive Units In December 2024, as part of the Merger, the Board approved the Everbridge, LP Incentive Equity Plan (the Plan) and the Everbridge, LP Co-Invest Agreement (the Co-Invest Agreement) to incentivize employees and to align the employees and management with the owners of the business. The Plan provides for the grant of profit interests, options, equity appreciation rights and other forms of awards to employees and non-employees granted or denominated in units of Parent. Under the Plan, 11.26 million Class B Units (Incentive Units) were reserved for issuance. The Plan allows for awards to generally vest over four years based on continued service to the Company and/or its affiliates. Equity-based compensation costs for granted units are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period as the services performed. The Co-Invest Agreement offered employees the one-time opportunity to co-invest in the Company by purchasing units directly from the Company for cash. Under the Co-Invest Agreement, the purchase price was $1,000 for one Class A Unit and a number of Class B Units, based on a ratio of one Class A Unit to 111.07 Class B Units. The Company determined the Co-Invest Agreement was not compensatory in nature as the terms are no more favourable than those available to all holders of the same class of equity, therefore it does not give rise to recognizable compensation cost. A total of 763 thousand management incentive units were granted and outstanding as of December 31, 2024 to Everbridge Holdings Limited employees. During the year ended December 31, 2025 no shares were granted. Half of the awards are subject to time-based vesting; and half are subject to certain performance-based metrics either defined in the grant agreement or determined by the Board for the applicable year. A total of 238 thousand shares vested and no shares were forfeited as of December 31, 2025. Total £690 thousand equity-based compensation expense was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2025. Total unrecognized equity-based compensation expense for service-based awards as of December 31, 2025 is £1.1 million which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 2.5 years. Period from January 1, 2025 Through December 31, 2025
