Second Quarter Fiscal 2024 Earnings Review December 6, 2023

SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements concerning the Company's operations, performance, and financial condition. Reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements, as actual results may differ materially from those in any forward-looking statements. Any such forward- looking statements are based upon many assumptions and estimates that are inherently subject to uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Company and are subject to change based on many important factors. Such factors include, but are not limited to: (i) the level of investment in new technologies and products; (ii) subscriber renewal rates for the Company's journals; (iii) the financial stability and liquidity of journal subscription agents; (iv) the consolidation of book wholesalers and retail accounts; (v) the market position and financial stability of key retailers; (vi) the seasonal nature of the Company's educational business and the impact of the used book market; (vii) worldwide economic and political conditions; (viii) the Company's ability to protect its copyrights and other intellectual property worldwide (ix) the ability of the Company to successfully integrate acquired operations and realize expected opportunities; (x) the Company’s ability to realize operating savings over time and in fiscal year 2024 in connection with our multi-year Global Restructuring Program; (xi) the possibility that the divestitures will not be pursued, failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals or required financing or to satisfy any of the other conditions to planned dispositions; and (xii) other factors detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances. NON-GAAP MEASURES In this presentation, management provides the following non-GAAP performance measures:  Adjusted Revenue  Adjusted Earnings Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”);  Free Cash Flow less Product Development Spending;  Adjusted Contribution to Profit (“Adjusted CTP”) and margin;  Adjusted EBITDA and margin;  Organic revenue; and  Results on a constant currency (“CC”) basis. Management believes non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude our held for sale or sold businesses, impairment charges, and the impact of restructuring charges and credits and other items, provide supplementary information to support analyzing operating results and earnings and are commonly used by shareholders to measure our performance. Free Cash Flow less Product Development Spending helps assess our ability over the long term to create value for our shareholders. Results on a constant currency basis removes distortion from the effects of foreign currency movements to provide better comparability of our business trends from period to period applying the same foreign currency exchange rates for the current and equivalent prior period. We have not provided our 2024 outlook for the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, as they are not available without unreasonable effort due to the high variability, complexity, and low visibility with respect to certain items, including restructuring charges and credits, gains and losses on foreign currency, and other gains and losses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to our consolidated results computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP. 2

Q124 Earnings Presentation.pptx 18 Appendix – US GAAP to Non-GAAP EPS Notes (4) Reflects the amortization of intangible assets established on the opening balance sheet for an acquired business. This includes the amortization of intangible assets such as developed technology, customer relationships, tradenames, etc., which is reflected in the "Amortization of intangible assets" line in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net (Loss) Income. It also includes the amortization of acquired product development assets, which is reflected in Cost of sales in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net (Loss) Income. (5) We are divesting non-core businesses, including University Services, Wiley Edge, and CrossKnowledge. These three businesses met the held-for-sale criteria and we measured each business at the lower of carrying value or fair value less cost to sell. We recorded a held-for-sale pretax impairment charge of $34.8 million and $75.4 million, in the three and six months ended October 31, 2023, respectively, related to University Services. We recorded a held-for-sale pretax impairment charge of $17.1 million and $50.4 million, in the three and six months ended October 31, 2023, respectively, related to CrossKnowledge. In the three months ended October 31, 2023, there was a reduction in the pretax loss on the sale of our Tuition Manager business previously in our Held for Sale or Sold segment due to cash received after the closing of approximately $0.5 million, which resulted in a total net pretax loss of $1.5 million (net of tax loss of $1.1 million). In addition, our Adjusted EPS excludes the Adjusted Net Income of our Held for Sale or Sold segment. (6) Represents the impact of using diluted weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (55.6 million and 55.7 million shares for the three and six months ended October 31, 2023, respectively) included in the Non-GAAP Adjusted EPS calculation in order to apply the dilutive impact on adjusted net income due to the effect of unvested restricted stock units and other stock awards. This impact occurs when a US GAAP net loss is reported and the effect of using dilutive shares is antidilutive. (7) For the three and six months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022, substantially all of the tax impact was from deferred taxes. (1) See Explanation of Usage of Non-GAAP Performance Measures included in this supplementary information for additional details on the reasons why management believes presentation of each non-GAAP performance measure provides useful information to investors. The supplementary information included in this press release for the three and six months ended October 31, 2023 is preliminary and subject to change prior to the filing of our upcoming Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission. (2) All amounts are approximate due to rounding. (3) In fiscal year 2023 due to the closure of our operations in Russia, the Russia entity was deemed substantially liquidated. In the three and six months ended October 31, 2023, we wrote off an additional $0.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of cumulative translation adjustments in earnings. This amount is reflected in Foreign exchange transaction (losses) gains on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net (Loss) Income.
