THOMSON REUTERS CORPORATION SIGNS DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT TO ACQUIRE CASETEXT



TORONTO, June 26, 2023 – Thomson Reuters Corporation (“Thomson Reuters”) (NYSE /
TSX: TRI), a global content and technology company, today announced it has
signed a definitive agreement to acquire Casetext, a California-based provider
of technology for legal professionals, for $650 million cash.

The proposed transaction will complement Thomson Reuters existing AI roadmap and
builds on its recent initiatives, including a commitment to invest more than
$100 million annually on AI capabilities, the development of new generative AI
experiences across its product suite, as well as a new plugin with Microsoft and
Microsoft 365 Copilot for legal professionals.

Founded in 2013, Casetext uses advanced AI and machine learning to build
technology for legal professionals, creating solutions that help them work more
efficiently and provide higher-quality representation to more clients. Casetext
employs 104 employees, and its customers include more than 10,000 law firms and
corporate legal departments. 

Casetext was granted early access to OpenAI’s GPT-4 large language model,
allowing it to develop solutions with the new technology and refine use cases
for legal professionals. Its key products include CoCounsel, an AI legal
assistant launched in 2023 and powered by GPT-4 that delivers document review,
legal research memos, deposition preparation, and contract analysis in minutes.
 

“The acquisition of Casetext is another step in our ‘build, partner and buy’
strategy to bring generative AI solutions to our customers,” said Steve Hasker,
president and CEO of Thomson Reuters. “We believe that Casetext will accelerate
and expand our market potential for these offerings - revolutionizing the way
professionals work, and the work they do.”

"For the last ten years, we have harnessed the power of AI to build products
that elevate the practice of law and enable attorneys to serve more people’s
legal needs, with the ultimate goal of increasing access to justice," said Jake
Heller, CEO of Casetext. “Joining Thomson Reuters is an incredible opportunity
to advance our mission and the field of generative AI solutions exponentially,
not only for lawyers but across professions, ensuring this revolutionary
technology can benefit as many people as possible.”

Closing of the transaction is subject to specified regulatory approvals and
customary closing conditions and is anticipated to occur in the second half of
2023.

Thomson Reuters will hold a conference call to discuss additional details
related to the proposed transaction on Tuesday, June 27 at 9:00 AM EDT. A live
webcast of the conference call will be available on the Investor Relations
section of www.thomsonreuters.com.
