This step follows CAE's portfolio assessment completed earlier this year and reflects the maturity of Flightscape as a standalone, high‑growth software business.  

This transaction intends to position Flightscape for its next phase of growth while enabling CAE to sharpen its focus on its core simulation and training capabilities and long-term value creation. CAE will actively assess a full range of options, including strategic partnerships, minority or majority investment, a sale, or other alternatives that are determined to be in the best interests of CAE and its stakeholders.

"Earlier this year, we completed a comprehensive review of our portfolio to ensure our capital, leadership attention and strategic focus are aligned with where CAE can create the most value," said Matthew Bromberg, President and Chief Executive Officer of CAE. "That review reinforced our conviction in Flightscape as a strong, differentiated business that may be better positioned for its next chapter through alternative ownership or partnership structures. This is a deliberate, disciplined step focused on long‑term value creation—for shareholders, customers, and employees."

Flightscape is a high-growth, cloud-native SaaS platform supporting the global aviation ecosystem through advanced planning, operations control and decision-support solutions. The business has benefited from sustained investment, experienced leadership and continued customer adoption, and CAE believes it is well positioned to build on these strengths. Flightscape is trusted by many of the world's leading airlines and is supported by a global team of more than 600 professionals across the Americas, Europe and Asia.
