The total represents 0.25% of Aimia's 88,565,885 common shares outstanding as at May 31, 2026.

Through May 31, 2026 Aimia has purchased and cancelled 3,714,100 shares or 62.9% of allowable shares in its current NCIB program. Aimia believes that the market price of its common shares may, from time to time, not reflect the intrinsic value of the company, and that repurchases of common shares pursuant to the NCIB may represent an appropriate and desirable use of the Company's funds. Therefore, Aimia believes that it is in its best interest to proceed with this NCIB, while maintaining sufficient financial flexibility to execute on the Company's future strategic direction and capital allocation priorities.
