Business Segments and Growth Drivers

Growth in Q3 2025 was primarily driven by recent business acquisitions and sustained momentum in the financial services sector. In constant currency, CGI's client proximity segments with the strongest growth were UK and Australia, which saw 37% growth, incorporating a full quarter's revenue from VJSS. Combined growth in the U.S. segments was 9%, largely fueled by investments from the Aeyon and Daugherty mergers.

From an industry perspective, constant currency revenue growth was led by the financial services sector (9.6%) and government sector (8.7%). This growth was partially offset by continued softness in Continental Europe, particularly in the MRD sector. Intellectual Property (IP) revenue grew in 6 out of 8 proximity segments, driven by strong client interest in CGI's business solutions, especially from financial services and energy & utilities clients.

Strong Bookings and Backlog Position

CGI achieved bookings exceeding $4 billion in Q3 2025, with a book-to-bill ratio of 101%. The U.S. commercial and state government segments contributed significantly to this, posting a ratio of 121%. The global backlog reached $30.6 billion, equivalent to two times the annual revenue. On a trailing twelve-month basis, CGI's book-to-bill ratio stands at 107%, reflecting sustained demand for services aimed at helping clients realize operational efficiencies, particularly through managed services and IP solutions.

Sector Performance and Market Demand

In Q3 2025, renewed client spending was observed in banking and the broader financial services sector, with year-over-year bookings up by over $400 million. On a trailing twelve-month basis, bookings in this sector increased by more than $1 billion, as clients turned to CGI for modernization of core systems and processes. Demand in the government sector remained strong, with a Q3 book-to-bill ratio of 112%, led by significant wins in U.S. local government.
