We also continue to make strong progress on each of our strategic priorities: maturing the <em>Global 7500<\/em> aircraft program, delivering on our productivity initiative, executing our aftermarket growth strategy and deleveraging our balance sheet \u2013 setting the foundation for a more resilient and profitable business.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>First Quarter 2021 Financial Performance <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Business jet revenues during the first quarter of 2021 totalled $1.3 billion, an 18% year-over-year increase. This increase was mainly driven by an improved mix of large-cabin aircraft deliveries, including eight <em>Global 7500<\/em> aircraft. Total aircraft deliveries in the quarter equalled 26, in line with expectations and the company\u2019s full-year delivery targets. Order activity in the quarter was strong, resulting in a book-to-bill ratio of greater than 1.0. Robust sales activity and positive market trends are expected to continue<sup>(<\/sup><sup>5<\/sup><sup>)<\/sup> into the second quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Adjusted EBITDA for continuing operations in the quarter was $123 million, a 43% increase year-over-year, reflecting a favourable aircraft mix, progress on the <em>Global 7500<\/em> aircraft learning curve, cost structure improvements and the divestitures of margin dilutive businesses. Adjusted EBIT for continuing operations was $29 million.<\/p>\n<p>First-quarter free cash usage for continued operations totalled $405 million, including approximately $100 million of non-recurring cash items, representing a $357 million year-over-year improvement.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Balance Sheet Deleveraging Actions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As previously disclosed by Bombardier, the sale of its Transportation business was completed on January 29, 2021. Since the divestiture of Bombardier Transportation, Bombardier has deployed approximately $2.4 billion of liquidity, including proceeds from the Transportation sale, toward deleveraging its balance sheet. This includes the full repayment of the total outstanding balance of $750 million drawn on the $1.0 billion senior secured term loan facility with HPS Investment Partners, LLC and the recently concluded approximately $1.6 billion tender offer to purchase certain outstanding notes. Together, these actions are expected to reduce the company\u2019s annual cash interest costs by approximately $200 million versus its 2020 debt servicing cost.<\/p>\n<p>The company continues to consider various options to address other debt maturities in an opportunistic manner, with a focus on clearing a three-year runway providing the company with a path to execute its strategy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Affirming Full Year 2021 Guidance and 2025 Objectives<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith our solid performance in the first quarter, and our markets in recovery and key initiatives well underway, we remain confident in our ability to deliver on both our full-year financial guidance and longer-term objectives,\u201d Martel continued. \u201cThis includes: (i) diversifying the company\u2019s revenue mix by growing aftermarket services to ~ 27% of revenues by 2025; (ii) achieving a 20% reduction in <em>Global 7500<\/em> aircraft unit costs between the 50th and 100th aircraft delivery; and (iii) obtaining $400 million in recurring savings by 2023. Through these actions, we work on transforming Bombardier into a more predictable, profitable and resilient company.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>SELECTED RESULTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<table

Special items comprise items which do not reflect the Corporation\u2019s core performance or where their separate presentation will assist users of the consolidated financial statements in understanding the Corporation\u2019s results for the period. Such items include, among others, the impact of restructuring charges, impact of business disposals and significant impairment charges and reversals.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Adjusted EBITDA<\/td>\n<td>Adjusted EBIT plus amortization and impairment charges on PP&amp;E and intangible assets.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Adjusted net income (loss)<\/td>\n<td>Net income (loss) excluding special items, accretion on net retirement benefit obligations, certain net gains and losses arising from changes in measurement of provisions and of financial instruments carried at FVTP&amp;L and the related tax impacts of these items.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Free cash flow (usage)<\/td>\n<td>Cash flows from operating activities less net additions to PP&amp;E and intangible assets.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Non-GAAP financial measures are mainly derived from the consolidated financial statements but do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. The exclusion of certain items from non-GAAP performance measures does not imply that these items are necessarily non-recurring. Other entities in our industry may define the above measures differently than we do. In those cases, it may be difficult to compare the performance of those entities to ours based on these similarly-named non-GAAP measures.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss)<\/strong><br \/>\nManagement uses adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) for purposes of evaluating underlying business performance. Management believes these non-GAAP earnings measures in addition to IFRS measures provide users of our Financial Report with enhanced understanding of our results and related trends and increases the transparency and clarity of the core results of our business. Adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) exclude items that do not reflect our core performance or where their exclusion will assist users in understanding our results for the period. For these reasons, a significant number of users of the MD&amp;A analyze our results based on these financial measures. Management believes these measures help users of MD&amp;A to better analyze results, enabling better comparability of our results from one period to another and with peers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Free cash flow (usage) <\/strong><br \/>\nFree cash flow is defined as cash flows from operating activities less net additions to PP&amp;E and intangible assets. Management believes that this non-GAAP cash flow measure provides investors with an important perspective on the Corporation\u2019s generation of cash available for shareholders, debt repayment, and acquisitions after making the capital investments required to support ongoing business operations and long-term value creation. This non-GAAP cash flow measure does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures as it excludes certain mandatory expenditures such as repayment of maturing debt. Management uses free cash flow as a measure to assess both business performance and overall liquidity generation.<\/p>\n<p>Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable IFRS financial measures are provided in the table hereafter, except for the following reconciliations:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>adjusted EBIT to EBIT \u2013 see the Consolidated results of operations section; and<\/li>\n<li>free cash flow usage to cash flows from operating activities \u2013 see the Free cash flow usage table in the Liquidity and capital resources section in the MD&amp;A.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\u00a0\u00a0<strong> Reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to EBIT<\/strong><sup><strong>(<\/strong><\/sup><sup><strong>1)<\/strong><\/sup><\/td>\n<td colspan=\"6\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td colspan=\"5\"><strong>Three-month periods<br \/>\nended March 31<\/strong><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td colspan=\"2\"><strong>2021<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td colspan=\"2\">2020<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>EBIT<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>$<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>19<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>$<\/td>\n<td>105<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Amortization<\/td>\n<td colspan=\"2\"><strong>94<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td colspan=\"2\">77<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Impairment charges on PP&amp;E and intangible assets<sup>(<\/sup><sup>2)<\/sup><\/td>\n<td colspan=\"2\"><strong>3<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td colspan=\"2\">11<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Special items excluding impairment charges on PP&amp;E and intangible assets<sup>(<\/sup><sup>2)<\/sup><\/td>\n<td colspan=\"2\"><strong>7<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td colspan=\"2\">(107<\/td>\n<td>)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Adjusted EBITDA<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>$<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>123<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>$<\/td>\n<td>86<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>(1)<\/td>\n<td>Includes continuing operations only.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>(2)<\/td>\n<td>Refer to the Consolidated results of operations section for details regarding special items.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>SALE OF THE TRANSPORTATION BUSINESS TO ALSTOM SA<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On September 16, 2020, the Corporation, Alstom and CDPQ and certain related parties signed a definitive sale and purchase agreement for the sale of the Transportation business through the sale of the entire issued share capital of BT Holdco (\u201cSPA\u201d).

Readers are cautioned that such information may not be appropriate for other purposes. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>By their nature, forward-looking statements require management to make assumptions and are subject to important known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which may cause our actual results in future periods to differ materially from forecast results set forth in forward-looking statements. While management considers these assumptions to be reasonable and appropriate based on information currently available, there is risk that they may not be accurate. The assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements made in this press release include the following material assumptions: the deployment of the proceeds from the sale of the Transportation business to Alstom on terms allowing the Corporation, when combined to other financing sources and free cash flow generation, to repay or otherwise manage its various maturities for the next three years; growth of the business aviation market and increase of the Corporation\u2019s share of such market; proper identification of recurring cost savings and executing on our cost reduction plan; optimization of our real estate portfolio, including through the sale or other transaction in respect of real estate assets on favorable terms; and access to working capital facilities on market terms. For additional information, including with respect to other assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements made in this press release, refer to the Forward-looking statements \u2014 Assumptions section in the MD&amp;A of our financial report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 which may be viewed on SEDAR at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sedar.com\/\"  data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=http:\/\/www.sedar.com&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1620381610064000&amp;usg=AFQjCNHD15W3-v_0FWken1EwI9V56ToqIA\">www.sedar.com<\/a>. Given the impact of the changing circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and the related response from the Corporation, governments (federal, provincial and municipal), regulatory authorities, businesses, suppliers, customers, counterparties and third-party service providers, there is inherently more uncertainty associated with the Corporation\u2019s assumptions as compared to prior years. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Certain factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, risks associated with general economic conditions, risks associated with our business environment (such as risks associated with the financial condition of business aircraft customers; trade policy; increased competition; political instability and force majeure events or global climate change), operational risks (such as risks related to developing new products and services; development of new business ; order backlog; the transition to a pure-play business aviation company; the certification of products and services; the execution of orders; pressures on cash flows and capital expenditures based on seasonality and cyclicality; execution of our strategy, productivity enhancements, operational efficiencies, restructuring and cost reduction initiatives; doing business with partners; product performance warranty and casualty claim losses; regulatory and legal proceedings; environmental, health and safety risks; dependence on certain customers, contracts and suppliers; supply chain risks; human resources; reliance on information systems; reliance on and protection of intellectual property rights; reputation risks; risk management; tax matters; and adequacy of insurance coverage), financing risks (such as risks related to liquidity and access to capital markets; retirement benefit plan risk; exposure to credit risk; substantial debt and interest payment requirements; restrictive debt covenants; reliance on debt management and interest cost reduction strategies; and reliance on government support), market risks (such as foreign currency fluctuations; changing interest rates; increases in commodity prices; and inflation rate fluctuations).

As a result of the current COVID-19 pandemic, additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: risks related to the impact and effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on economic conditions and financial markets and the resulting impact on our business, operations, capital resources, liquidity, financial condition, margins, prospects and results; uncertainty regarding the magnitude and length of economic disruption as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak and the resulting effects on the demand environment for our products and services; uncertainty regarding market and economic recovery in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic; emergency measures and restrictions imposed by public health authorities or governments, fiscal and monetary policy responses by governments and financial institutions; disruptions to global supply chain, customers, workforce, counterparties and third-party service providers; further disruptions to operations, orders and deliveries; technology, privacy, cyber security and reputational risks; and other unforeseen adverse events.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list of factors that may affect future growth, results and performance is not exhaustive and undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements.
