Annual Report

Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2022

Letter from Jean Paul Chauvet

When I joined Lightspeed in 2012 as its Chief Revenue Officer, I became part of a small, but incredible team with big goals. As President, I saw the Company grow while maintaining its collaborative, pioneering spirit. And today, as the Company's Chief Executive Officer, it is an honor to guide Lightspeed on the next phase of its journey.

In my time here I have worked alongside a talented and passionate team to help transform Lightspeed from a regional provider of POS solutions to a global Commerce Platform. It has been a thrilling experience.

The Company has changed drastically over the years but what has not changed is the mission that motivates me and the thousands of employees at Lightspeed. We are here to help entrepreneurs, creators, chefs and artists build their small but meaningful businesses. Businesses that are the fabric of the communities they serve. We are here to make the complex simple, to remove the tedious tasks that tax our customers' time and energy, to provide financial support where we can and to bring the power of technology, once reserved for only very large players, to serve the small businesses that are so crucial to the vitality of our cities, towns and neighborhoods.

In our fiscal 2022 year, Lightspeed continued to advance its mission to ignite businesses everywhere. Our time was spent integrating our recent acquisitions into one, comprehensive, industry-leading offering; on expanding our payments solutions to all of our major markets; and on boosting our eCommerce and Supplier Network initiatives through the acquisitions of Ecwid and NuORDER.

As I look into the future, I have great expectations for the Company we are building. Of course, there are challenges that we must navigate. A reprehensible war is waging in parts of Europe, inflation threatens economic stability and supply chain issues still persist. There will always be challenges.

However, as crowds once again gather to shop, dine, and engage in the world around them, I believe we are in an environment where Lightspeed can truly thrive. We helped our customers survive the pandemic by accelerating their evolution to e-commerce/ omnichannel, and now we are poised to help them thrive as the world re-opens.

The last two years have tested Lightspeed and its customers in ways we could never have imagined. We have emerged stronger, larger and more capable than we have ever been. And ready to take on the future!
