Item 8.01 Other Events.

On August 15, 2022, Skillsoft Corp. (the "Company") completed the previously announced disposition of 100% of its equity in Amber Holding Inc. ("SumTotal") to Cornerstone OnDemand, Inc. (the "Transaction"). SumTotal was previously a reportable segment of the Company. As a result of the disposition of SumTotal, beginning in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending July 31, 2022, the Company presented the operating results of SumTotal as discontinued operations in its condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, the operating results of SumTotal must be retrospectively reclassified to discontinued operations for all prior periods subsequently presented. The Company is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K solely to update the presentation of certain financial information and related disclosures contained in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending April 30, 2022 (the "2022 Q1 10-Q") to reflect the exclusion of the financial operations of SumTotal from the Company's segment disclosure and to present the related operations of SumTotal as discontinued operations and its assets and liabilities presented as held for sale.

The operating results of SumTotal are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented and the assets and liabilities being sold as part of the Transaction have been presented in the Company's consolidated financial statements as assets and liabilities held for sale for all periods presented.

Attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K are the updated "Item 1. Unaudited Financial Statements," and "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations", respectively, from the 2022 Q1 10-Q, to reflect the revised segment presentation, the reclassification of the historical financial results of SumTotal as discontinued operations, certain subsequent events and other immaterial disclosures.

The information included in Exhibits 99.1 attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K is presented in connection with the reporting changes described above for the operating results of SumTotal. All other information in our 2022 Q1 10-Q has not been updated for events or developments that occurred subsequent to the filing of the 2022 Q1 10-Q with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). For developments since the filing of the 2022 Q1 10-Q, please refer to the Company's subsequent Current Reports on Form 8-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. The information in this Form 8-K, including the exhibits, should be read in conjunction with the 2022 Q1 10-Q and subsequent SEC filings.

Forward Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K, including its exhibits, includes statements that are, or may be deemed to be, "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created by those laws. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, that address activities, events or developments that we expect or anticipate may occur in the future, including such things as our outlook (including bookings, revenue, and adjusted EBITDA), our product development and planning, our pipeline, future capital expenditures, share repurchases, financial results, the impact of regulatory changes, existing and evolving business strategies and acquisitions and dispositions, demand for our services, competitive strengths and goals, the benefits of new initiatives, growth of our business and operations, and our ability to successfully implement our plans, strategies, objectives, expectations and intentions are forward-looking statements. Also, when we use words such as "may," "will," "would," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "project," "forecast," "seek," "outlook," "target," "goal," "probably," or similar expressions, we are making forward-looking statements. Such statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of the Company's management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. All forward-looking disclosure is speculative by its nature.

There are important risks, uncertainties, events and factors that could cause our actual results or performance to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements contained in this document, including:

our ability to realize the benefits expected from the business combination

• between the Company, Churchill Capital Corp. II, and Global Knowledge, and


   other recent transactions, including our acquisitions of Pluma and Codecademy,
   and disposition of SumTotal;


   the impact of U.S. and worldwide economic trends, financial market conditions,
   geopolitical events, natural disasters, climate change, public health crises,

• the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic (including any variant), political crises, or

other catastrophic events on our business, liquidity, financial condition and

results of operations;

• our ability to attract and retain key employees and qualified technical and

sales personnel;

our reliance on third parties to provide us with learning content, subject

• matter expertise, and content productions and the impact on our business if our

relationships with these third parties are terminated;

• fluctuations in our future operating results;

our ability to successfully identify, consummate, and achieve strategic

• objectives in connection with our acquisition opportunities and realize the

benefits expected from the acquisition;

• the demand for, and acceptance of, our products and for cloud-based technology

learning solutions in general;

• our ability to compete successfully in competitive markets and changes in the

competitive environment in our industry and the markets in which we operate;

• our ability to market existing products and develop new products;

a failure of our information technology infrastructure or any significant

• breach of security, including in relation to the migration of our key platforms

from our systems to cloud storage;

• future regulatory, judicial, and legislative changes in our industry;

our ability to comply with laws and regulations applicable to our business,

• including shifting global privacy, data protection, and cyber and information

security laws and regulations, as well as state privacy and data protection

laws;

• a failure to achieve and maintain effective internal control over financial

reporting;

• fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates;

• our ability to protect or obtain intellectual property rights;

• our ability to raise additional capital;

• the impact of our indebtedness on our financial position and operating

flexibility;

• our ability to meet future liquidity requirements and comply with restrictive

covenants related to long-term indebtedness;

• our ability to implement our share repurchase program successfully;

• our ability to successfully defend ourselves in legal proceedings; and

• our ability to continue to meet applicable listing standards.

The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive and new factors may emerge from time to time that could also affect actual performance and results. For more information, please see the risk factors included in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022 and our other filings with the SEC.

Although we believe that the assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of these assumptions, and therefore also the forward-looking statements based on these assumptions, could themselves prove to be inaccurate. Given the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included in this document, our inclusion of this information is not a representation or guarantee by us that our objectives and plans will be achieved. Annualized, pro forma, projected, and estimated numbers are used for illustrative purpose only, are not forecasts and may not reflect actual results. Additionally, statements as to market share, industry data, and our market position are based on the most currently available data available to us and our estimates regarding market position or other industry data included in this document or otherwise discussed by us involve risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors, including as set forth above.

Our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made and we do not undertake to update these forward-looking statements unless required by applicable law. With regard to these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed in this document may not occur, and we caution you against unduly relying on these forward-looking statements.
