• Cash provided by continuing operating activities increased to $103.7 million from $93.7 million a year ago.

• Net earnings after the expensing of stock options increased 25.4% to $53.3 million from $42.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2004. o The net earnings margin was 5.6%, below 6.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2004 due to the acquisition of AMS but above 5.5% the previous quarter.

• Basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.12 were up over basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.11 reported in last year’s first quarter. Excluding the expensing of stock options, earnings per share would have been $0.13 in the first quarter compared with $0.12 last year.

The integration of American Management Systems (“AMS”) was largely completed in the fiscal 2005 first quarter. o The backlog of signed contracts at December 31, 2004 was $13.0 billion with a weighted average remaining contract term of 7.0 years.

• The current pipeline of bids for large outsourcing contracts being reviewed by potential clients remains at $7 billion.

“We are pleased to report continuing strong year-over-year growth in revenue and net earnings, as well as solid cash flow,” said Serge Godin, chairman and CEO. “On a sequential basis, we expect revenue, profitability and organic growth to continue to increase as proposals in our sales funnel and pipeline become signed contracts and as we have achieved further synergies from AMS. Operations and teams of CGI and the former AMS have been blended, achieving the cost reductions and earnings accretiveness targeted by the integration program.”

“Going forward, we will continue to apply our four pillars of growth strategy, with discipline, as this approach has proven that it delivers results,” Mr. Godin added. “We see growing demand for services in all our markets and are focused on leveraging our increased critical mass in the US, Europe and Asia-Pacific while continuing to capitalize on new business opportunities in Canada.”

First Quarter Results (See also: Q1 MD&A filed with Sedar & Edgar and available at www.cgi.com) Revenue for the first quarter ended December 31, 2004 increased 37.4% to $950.3 million, from $691.6 million in the same quarter last year, and was down 0.9% sequentially from fourth quarter revenue of $959.2 million. The currency exchange rate, mainly between the Canadian and US dollars, had a negative impact of $23.4 million or 2.4% on revenue, compared with the previous quarter. Year-over-year organic revenue growth, excluding the impact of currency fluctuation, was 6.2%.

In the first quarter, revenue from long-term outsourcing contracts represented 57% of the Company’s total revenue, including 44% from IT services and 13% from business processing services, while project oriented consulting and systems integration work represented 43%. Geographically, clients in Canada represented 61% of revenue; clients in the US represented 31%; and in all other regions, 8%. Revenue from clients in the financial services sector represented 38% of total revenue; while government and healthcare represented 27%; telecommunications and utilities, 23%; retail and distribution, 8%; and manufacturing, 4%.

CGI began expensing stock options in the first quarter of fiscal 2005, in accordance with Canadian GAAP. Earnings and cash flow amounts for fiscal 2004 have been adjusted for comparison purposes.

Earnings before interest, income taxes, entity subject to significant influence and discontinued operations (“EBIT”) was $86.6 million in the first quarter, up 18.1% over last year’s first quarter EBIT of $73.3 million, and up 3.2% over fourth quarter EBIT of $84.0 million. The EBIT margin was 9.1% for the quarter, compared with 10.6 % in last year’s first quarter and 8.8% in the fourth quarter. On a year-over-year basis, the EBIT margin was reduced by the lower margins of AMS’ business activities. The sequential improvement in the EBIT margin reflects the profitability generated by new business, offset partially by the currency impact on our integrated foreign operations.

Net earnings in the first quarter increased 25.4% to $53.3 million from net earnings of $42.5 million in the same period of 2004, and increased marginally from net earnings of $52.9 million in the fourth quarter. Compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2004 when there were discontinued operations, net earnings from continuing operations in the first quarter increased 24.4% from net earnings from continuing operations that quarter. The net earnings margin was 5.6% in the first quarter, compared with 6.1% last year and 5.5% in the fourth quarter. Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.12 in the first quarter, against basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.11 in last year’s first quarter and $0.12 in the fourth quarter. Excluding the expensing of stock options, earnings per share would have been $0.13 in the first quarter compared with $0.13 in the previous quarter and $0.12 a year ago.

Cash provided by continuing operating activities was $103.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005, compared with $93.7 million a year ago, and negative $3.6 million in the previous quarter.

The Company maintained a strong balance sheet. At December 31, 2004, cash and cash equivalents were $229.6 million. The long-term debt to capitalization ratio was 15.2%. Days sales outstanding (DSOs) were reduced to 50 days at December 31, 2004, from 53 days in the previous quarter, mainly reflecting improved collection of our client receivables.
