The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") is intended to help the reader understand the financial condition and results of operations ofIHS Markit Ltd. ("IHS Markit ," "we," "us," or "our") as of and for the periods presented. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. References to 2021 are to our fiscal year 2021, which began onDecember 1, 2020 and ends onNovember 30, 2021 . Executive Summary Business Overview We are a world leader in critical information, analytics, and solutions for the major industries and markets that drive economies worldwide. We deliver next-generation information, analytics, and solutions to customers in business, finance, and government, improving their operational efficiency and providing deep insights that lead to well-informed, confident decisions. We have more than 50,000 business and government customers, including 80 percent of the Fortune Global 500 and the world's leading financial institutions. Headquartered inLondon , we are committed to sustainable, profitable growth.
To best serve our customers, we are organized into the following four industry-focused segments:
•Financial Services, which includes our financial Information, Solutions, and Processing product offerings; •Transportation, which includes our Automotive and Maritime & Trade product offerings; •Resources, which includes our Upstream and Downstream product offerings; and •Consolidated Markets & Solutions, which includes our Product Design, Economics & Country Risk, and TMT benchmarking product offerings. Our recurring revenue streams represented approximately 89 percent of our total revenue for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 . Our recurring revenue is generally stable and predictable, and we have long-term relationships with many of our customers.
For the three months ended
•Increase in geographic, product, and customer penetration. We believe there are continued opportunities to add new customers and to increase the use of our products and services by existing customers. We plan to add new customers and build our relationships with existing customers by leveraging our existing sales channels, broad product portfolio, global footprint, and industry expertise to anticipate and respond to the changing demands of our end markets. •Introduce innovative offerings and enhancements. In recent years, we have launched several new product offerings addressing a wide array of customer needs, and we expect to continue innovating using our existing data sets and industry expertise, converting core information to higher value advanced analytics. We also intend to continue to invest across our business to increase our customer value proposition. •Improve efficiency, productivity, and financial strength. We are striving to strengthen our operational excellence by consistently improving productivity and efficiency, particularly as we work through the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. We also continue to build on our strong financial foundation, balancing capital allocation between returning capital to shareholders (targeting an annual capital return of 50 to 75 percent of our annual capital capacity through share repurchases and cash dividends) and completing mergers and acquisitions, focused primarily on targeted transactions in our core end markets that will allow us to continue to build out our strategic position. We intend to continue to operate at the high end of our capital policy target leverage ratio of 2.0-3.0x. 20 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents OnNovember 29, 2020 , we, S&P Global Inc., and Merger Sub entered into an agreement and plan of merger, which was subsequently amended onJanuary 20, 2021 , pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and intoIHS Markit , withIHS Markit surviving such merger as a wholly-owned, direct subsidiary of S&P Global. The merger intends to bring together a unique portfolio of highly complementary assets, as well as innovation and technology capability to accelerate growth and enhance value creation. At the completion of the merger, eachIHS Markit share that is issued and outstanding (other than dissenting shares and shares held byIHS Markit in treasury) will be converted into the right to receive 0.2838 fully paid and nonassessable shares of S&P Global common stock, and, if applicable, cash in lieu of fractional shares, without interest, and less any applicable withholding taxes. If the merger is completed,IHS Markit shares will cease to be listed on theNew York Stock Exchange andIHS Markit shares will be deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act. The merger was approved byIHS Markit and S&P Global shareholders onMarch 11, 2021 , but is still subject to antitrust and regulatory approval requirements, as well as other customary closing conditions.
Key Performance Indicators
We believe that revenue growth, Adjusted EBITDA (both in dollars and margin), and free cash flow are key financial measures of our success. Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are financial measures that are not prepared in accordance withU.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("non-GAAP"). Revenue growth. We review year-over-year revenue growth in our segments as a key measure of our success in addressing customer needs. We measure revenue growth in terms of organic, acquisitive, and foreign currency impacts. We define these components as follows:
•Organic - We define organic revenue growth as total revenue growth from continuing operations for all factors other than acquisitions and foreign currency movements. We drive this type of revenue growth through value realization (pricing), expanding wallet share of existing customers through up-selling and cross-selling efforts, securing new customer business, and the sale of new or enhanced product offerings.
•Acquisitive - We define acquisitive revenue as the revenue generated from acquired products and services from the date of acquisition to the first anniversary date of that acquisition. This type of growth comes as a result of our strategy to purchase, integrate, and leverage the value of assets we acquire. We also include the impact of divestitures in this metric. •Foreign currency - We define the foreign currency impact on revenue as the difference between current revenue at current exchange rates and current revenue at the corresponding prior period exchange rates. Due to the significance of revenue transacted in foreign currencies, we believe that it is important to measure the impact of foreign currency movements on revenue. In addition to measuring and reporting revenue by segment, we also measure and report revenue by transaction type. Understanding revenue by transaction type helps us identify and address broad changes in product mix. We summarize our transaction type revenue into the following three categories: •Recurring fixed revenue represents revenue generated from contracts specifying a relatively fixed fee for services delivered over the life of the contract. The initial term of these contracts is typically annual (with some longer-term arrangements) and non-cancellable for the term of the subscription, and may contain provisions for minimum monthly payments. The fixed fee is typically paid annually or more periodically in advance. These contracts typically consist of subscriptions to our various information offerings and software maintenance, which provide continuous access to our platforms and associated data over the contract term. Subscription revenue is usually recognized ratably over the contract term or, for term-based software license arrangements, annually on renewal. •Recurring variable revenue represents revenue from contracts that specify a fee for services, which is typically not fixed. The variable fee is usually paid monthly in arrears. Recurring variable revenue is based on, among other factors, the number of trades processed, assets under management, or the number of positions we value. Most of these contracts have an initial term ranging from one to five years, with auto-renewal periods thereafter. Recurring variable revenue was derived entirely from the Financial Services segment for all periods presented. •Non-recurring revenue represents consulting, services, single-document product sales, perpetual license sales and associated services, conferences and events, and advertising. Our non-recurring products and services are an important part of our business because they complement our recurring business in creating strong and comprehensive customer relationships. 21

Non-GAAP measures. We use non-GAAP financial measures such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow in our operational and financial decision-making. We believe that such measures allow us to focus on what we deem to be more reliable indicators of ongoing operating performance (Adjusted EBITDA) and our ability to generate cash flow from operations (free cash flow). We also believe that investors may find these non-GAAP financial measures useful for the same reasons, although we caution readers that non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute forU.S. GAAP financial measures or disclosures. None of these non-GAAP financial measures are recognized terms underU.S. GAAP and do not purport to be an alternative to net income or operating cash flow as an indicator of operating performance or any otherU.S. GAAP measure. Throughout this MD&A, we provide reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparableU.S. GAAP measures. •EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties to assess our operating performance. For example, a measure similar to Adjusted EBITDA is required by the lenders under our revolving credit agreement. We define EBITDA as net income plus or minus net interest, plus provision for income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA further excludes primarily non-cash items and other items that we do not consider to be useful in assessing our operating performance (e.g., stock-based compensation expense, restructuring charges, acquisition-related costs and performance compensation, exceptional litigation, net other gains and losses, pension mark-to-market, settlement, and other expense, the impact of joint ventures and noncontrolling interests, and discontinued operations). •Free Cash Flow. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less payments for acquisition-related performance compensation and capital expenditures. Non-GAAP measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies comparable to us, many of which present non-GAAP measures when reporting their results. These measures can be useful in evaluating our performance against our peer companies because we believe the measures provide users with valuable insight into key components ofU.S. GAAP financial disclosures. For example, a company with higherU.S. GAAP net income may not be as appealing to investors if its net income is more heavily comprised of gains on asset sales. Likewise, excluding the effects of interest income and expense moderates the impact of a company's capital structure on its performance. However, non-GAAP measures have limitations as an analytical tool. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. They are not presentations made in accordance withU.S. GAAP, are not measures of financial condition or liquidity, and should not be considered as an alternative to profit or loss for the period determined in accordance withU.S. GAAP or operating cash flows determined in accordance withU.S. GAAP. As a result, these performance measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute analysis for, results of operations as determined in accordance withU.S. GAAP.
Global Operations
Approximately 40 percent of our revenue is transacted outside ofthe United States ; however, only about 20 percent of our revenue is transacted in currencies other than theU.S. dollar. As a result, a strengtheningU.S. dollar relative to certain currencies has historically resulted in a negative impact on our revenue; conversely, a weakeningU.S. dollar has historically resulted in a positive impact on our revenue. Our largest foreign currency exposures for revenue are the British Pound, Euro, and Canadian Dollar.
Results of Operations
Total Revenue
Revenue for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , increased 4 percent compared to the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 . The table below displays the percentage change in revenue due to organic, acquisitive, and foreign currency factors when comparing the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 to the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 . Change in Total Revenue Foreign Organic Acquisitive Currency First quarter 2021 vs. first quarter 2020 3 % - % 1 % 22
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Organic revenue growth for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , compared to the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 , was led by strong performance in the Financial Services segment and recovering performance in the Transportation segment, partially offset by negative organic revenue growth in the Resources and CMS segments. Foreign currency had a slight positive effect on revenue growth for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , compared to the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 . Due to the extent of our global operations, foreign currency movements could positively or negatively affect our results in the future. Revenue by Segment Three months ended February 28/29, Percentage (In millions, except percentages) 2021 2020 Change Revenue: Financial Services$ 484.5 $ 436.0 11 % Transportation 311.7 297.2 5 % Resources 202.7 225.6 (10) % CMS 121.0 122.0 (1) % Total revenue$ 1,119.9 $ 1,080.8 4 %
The percentage change in revenue for each segment was due to the factors described in the following table.
Change in revenue First quarter 2021 vs. First quarter 2020 Foreign Organic Acquisitive Currency Financial Services 10 % - % 1 % Transportation 4 % - % 1 % Resources (10) % - % - % CMS (1) % (1) % 1 % Financial Services revenue for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , compared to the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 , experienced broad-based organic growth. Within our Information product offerings, organic revenue growth was led by increased demand for our pricing, reference data, and valuation offerings, as well as continued growth in our SFTR reporting platform and indices offerings. Within our Solutions product offerings, increased capital market issuance and greater adoption of our corporate actions, private markets, and regulatory and compliance offerings were all significant contributors to very strong organic revenue growth. Within our Processing product offerings, organic revenue growth increased primarily due to higher loan settlement activities. Transportation revenue for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , compared to the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 , continues to recover across the segment at varying speeds. The dealer-facing portion of our automotive offerings experienced strong growth across CARFAX and automotiveMastermind, with revenue growth rates approaching pre-pandemic levels. Other parts of our automotive offerings, such as products supporting OEMs, parts manufacturers, and banking and insurance clients are also recovering, albeit more gradually. In particular, one-time revenues related to marketing and recall activities remain down on a year-over-year basis. Our automotive product offerings continue to provide the largest contribution to Transportation revenue, and our diversification in used and new car product offerings allows for balanced opportunities for growth. Resources revenue for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , compared to the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 , declined, with our upstream product offerings continuing to be negatively impacted by constrained industry capital expenditure spend. We believe our Resources annual contract value ("ACV"), which represents the annualized value of recurring revenue contracts, has bottomed in the first quarter of 2021, and now expect it to slowly recover throughout the rest of 2021. ACV decreased$7 million in the quarter and has declined 11 percent on a trailing annual basis.
CMS revenue for the three months ended

Table of Contents Revenue by Transaction Type Three months ended February 28/29, Percentage change (in millions, except percentages) 2021 2020 Total Organic Revenue: Recurring fixed$ 825.6 $ 804.1 3 % 2 % Recurring variable 172.9 146.8 18 % 17 % Non-recurring 121.4 129.9 (7) % (7) % Total revenue$ 1,119.9 $ 1,080.8 4 % 3 % As a percent of total revenue: Recurring fixed 74 % 74 % Recurring variable 15 % 14 % Non-recurring 11 % 12 % Recurring fixed revenue organic growth increased 2 percent for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , compared to the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 , largely due to contributions from our Financial Services and Transportation recurring offerings, partially offset by declines in our Resources recurring offerings. Recurring variable revenue was composed entirely of Financial Services revenue, which experienced strong performance. The non-recurring organic revenue decline for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , compared to the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 , was primarily driven by lower automotive recall activities, lower energy consulting activities, and lower transactional content purchases for Resources Upstream offerings and CMS Product Design offerings compared to the first quarter of 2020.
Operating Expenses
The following table shows our operating expenses and the associated percentages of revenue.
Three months ended February 28/29, Percentage (In millions, except percentages) 2021 2020 Change Operating expenses: Cost of revenue $ 415.2$ 415.8 - % SG&A expense 302.2 316.2 (4) % Total cost of revenue and SG&A expense $ 717.4$ 732.0 (2) % Depreciation and amortization expense $ 151.6$ 145.3 4 % As a percent of revenue: Total cost of revenue and SG&A expense 64 % 68 % Depreciation and amortization expense 14 % 13 %
Cost of Revenue and SG&A Expense
In managing our business, we evaluate our costs by type (e.g., salaries and benefits, facilities, IT) rather than by income statement classification. The decreases in cost of revenue and SG&A expense were largely due to the execution of our cost reduction activities that we put in place at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Within our cost of revenue and SG&A expense, stock-based compensation expense decreased by approximately$17 million for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , compared to the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 , which was largely due to lower employer tax impacts associated with the exercise of stock options in 2021. 24 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Depreciation and Amortization Expense

Acquisition-Related Costs
Please refer to Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of costs associated with our integration and other acquisition-related activities. During the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , we recorded approximately$13.1 million of direct and incremental costs associated with acquisition and divestiture activities.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA
Three months ended February 28/29, Percentage (In millions, except percentages) 2021 2020 Change Adjusted EBITDA: Financial Services $ 232.9$ 205.4 13 % Transportation 146.7 118.0 24 % Resources 74.2 90.2 (18) % CMS 26.1 29.4 (11) % Shared services (13.1) (11.4) Total Adjusted EBITDA $ 466.8$ 431.6 8 % As a percent of segment revenue: Financial Services 48 % 47 % Transportation 47 % 40 % Resources 37 % 40 % CMS 22 % 24 % For the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , compared to the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 , Adjusted EBITDA increased primarily due to strong Financial Services revenue performance and improving Transportation revenue growth, as well as our continued cost containment efforts in the current COVID-19 pandemic environment. We continue to focus our efforts on organic revenue growth and cost management to improve overall margins. Financial Services segment Adjusted EBITDA and associated margin continued to increase because of strong organic revenue growth and investment in segment product offerings. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA for the Transportation segment was primarily due to organic revenue growth, although we expect slower growth through the rest of the year as we see more expense tied to revenue growth. Resources Adjusted EBITDA and associated margin decreased due to the organic revenue decline as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the decrease in CMS Adjusted EBITDA and margin was driven primarily by mix shift, which we expect to improve during the year.
Provision for Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate is estimated based upon the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full year.
25 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Our effective tax rate for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 was 17 percent, compared to 1 percent for the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 . The low 2020 tax rate is primarily due to excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation of approximately$64 million and the tax-efficient divestiture of the A&D business line (U.K. share sales are exempt from tax) of approximately$29 million . The 2021 tax rate includes excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation of approximately$23 million , partially offset byU.S. minimum tax of approximately$19 million .
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP measures)
The following table provides reconciliations of our net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 andFebruary 29, 2020 . Three months ended February 28/29, Percentage (In millions, except percentages) 2021 2020 Change Net income attributable to IHS Markit Ltd. $ 149.3$ 485.0 (69) % Interest income (0.1) (0.4) Interest expense 55.5 61.2 Provision for income taxes 30.3 4.3 Depreciation 56.1 51.1 Amortization 95.5 94.2 EBITDA $ 386.6$ 695.4 (44) % Stock-based compensation expense 65.8 82.6 Restructuring and impairment charges 1.0 4.5 Acquisition-related costs 9.2 0.7 Acquisition-related performance compensation 3.9 0.2 Gain on sale of assets (0.1) (372.3) Pension mark-to-market and settlement expense - 21.2

0.7 0.3 Adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interest (0.3) (1.0) Adjusted EBITDA $ 466.8$ 431.6 8 % Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue 41.7 % 39.9 % Our Adjusted EBITDA dollar and margin performance for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , compared to the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 , increased primarily because of organic revenue growth without proportionate growth in expense as we continue to focus on cost management activities as a result of COVID-19 and the current economic environment. Financial Condition (In millions, except As of February 28, As of November 30, percentages) 2021 2020 Dollar change Percentage change Accounts receivable, net $ 981.9 $ 891.7 $ 90.2 10 % Accrued compensation $ 95.9 $ 206.1$ (110.2) (53) % Deferred revenue$ 1,049.8 $ 886.2$ 163.6 18 % The increases in accounts receivable and deferred revenue were due to increased billing activity in 2021. Accrued compensation decreased primarily due to the 2020 bonus payout made in the first quarter of 2021, partially offset by the current year accrual. 26 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Liquidity and Capital Resources As ofFebruary 28, 2021 , we had cash and cash equivalents of$172.0 million . Our principal sources of liquidity include cash generated by operating activities, cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet, and amounts available under a revolving credit facility. We had approximately$5.12 billion of debt as ofFebruary 28, 2021 , consisting primarily of$227.0 million of revolving facility debt, a$250.0 million term loan, and$4.67 billion of senior notes. As ofFebruary 28, 2021 , we had approximately$1.0 billion available under our revolving credit facility. Subject to certain exceptions, the merger agreement with S&P Global restricts our ability to borrow more than$500 million in the aggregate without the prior consent of S&P Global. We do not believe this restriction will impact our liquidity to meet our ongoing working capital and capital expenditure needs. Our interest expense for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , compared to the three months endedFebruary 29, 2020 , decreased primarily because of lower floating interest rates in 2021 compared to the prior year, as well as decreased borrowings on our revolving facility debt. Our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of$0.20 per share during the first quarter of 2021, compared to a quarterly cash dividend of$0.17 per share during the first quarter of 2020. These dividends resulted in cash payments of$79.3 million and$67.7 million for the three months endedFebruary 28, 2021 , andFebruary 29, 2020 , respectively. Our Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program of up to$2.5 billion ofIHS Markit common shares throughNovember 30, 2021 , to be funded using our existing cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and future cash flows, or through the incurrence of short- or long-term indebtedness, at management's discretion. This repurchase program does not obligate us to repurchase any set dollar amount or number of shares and may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time without prior notice. Under this program, we are authorized to repurchase our common shares on the open market from time to time, in privately negotiated transactions, or through accelerated share repurchase agreements, subject to availability of common shares, price, market conditions, alternative uses of capital, and applicable regulatory requirements, at management's discretion. The merger agreement with S&P Global restricts our ability to purchase our shares and therefore our share repurchase program is currently suspended throughNovember 2021 , other than for the repurchase of shares associated with tax withholding requirements for share-based compensation. Our Board of Directors has separately authorized, subject to applicable regulatory requirements, the repurchase of our common shares surrendered by employees in an amount equal to the exercise price, if applicable, and statutory tax liability associated with the vesting of their equity awards, for which we pay the statutory tax on behalf of the employee and forgo receipt of the exercise price of the award from the employee, if applicable. Such repurchases have been authorized in addition to the share repurchase program described above. Based on our cash, debt, and cash flow positions, we believe that we will have sufficient liquidity to meet our ongoing working capital and capital expenditure needs. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the number and magnitude of future acquisitions, amount of share repurchases and dividends, the need for additional facilities or facility improvements, the timing and extent of spending to support product development efforts, information technology infrastructure investments, investments in our internal business applications, and the continued market acceptance of our offerings. Given current market conditions as a result of COVID-19, we are focused on maintaining higher levels of liquidity and capital structure flexibility. We maintain a solid balance sheet, investor grade rating, a well-positioned debt maturity ladder, and a strong diversified bank group. We expect to continue to operate within our capital policy target range of 2.0x-3.0x gross leverage.
Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities
105 % Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities$ (263.8) $ 387.0 $ (650.8) (168) % Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities$ 56.7 $ (462.1) $ 518.8 (112) % The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to the comparative reduction in cash payments in the first quarter of 2021 for acquisition-related performance compensation associated with the aM acquisition described in Note 2, as well as growth in our Adjusted EBITDA. 27 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents The decrease in net cash provided by investing activities was primarily due to the sale of the A&D business line in the first quarter of 2020, partially offset by the current year acquisition of Cappitech and the investment in Gen II. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities is primarily due to the decrease in share repurchases in the first quarter of 2021, compared to the first quarter of 2020, of$500 million , partially offset by the higher 2020 proceeds from stock option exercises.
Free Cash Flow (non-GAAP measure)
The following table reconciles our non-GAAP free cash flow measure to net cash provided by operating activities.
Three months ended February 28/29, (In millions, except percentages) 2021 2020 Dollar change Percentage change Net cash provided by operating activities$ 244.5 $ 119.5 Payments for acquisition-related performance compensation -
75.9
Capital expenditures on property and equipment (72.6) (78.0) Free cash flow$ 171.9 $ 117.4 $ 54.5 46 % The increase in free cash flow was primarily due to increased operating performance, lower capital expenditure activity and improved working capital balances. The payments for acquisition-related performance compensation are associated with the exercise of put provisions by aM equity interest holders, as further described in Note 2. Our free cash flow has historically been positive due to the robust cash generation attributes of our business model, and we expect that it will continue to be a significant source of funding for our business strategy of growth through organic and acquisitive means.
