Nebula adoption accelerating with Nebula revenue up 29% quarter-over-quarter and 51% year-over- year

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn.: KLDiscovery Inc. (“KLDiscovery” or the “Company”), a leading global provider of electronic discovery, information governance and data recovery technology solutions, announced today that revenue for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, was $79.0 million compared to $90.0 million in the second quarter of 2023. Net loss for the second quarter of 2024 was $(25.3) million compared to $(4.7) million in the second quarter of 2023.

EBITDA1 for the second quarter of 2024 was $(0.5) million compared to $18.5 million in the second quarter of 2023. Adjusted EBITDA1 (which excludes stock-based compensation, acquisition financing and transaction costs and other items as described below) for the second quarter of 2024 was $13.3 million compared to $20.1 million in the second quarter of 2023.

As announced on July 8, 2024, KLDiscovery has signed a transaction support agreement (the “TSA”) with its convertible debenture holders, term loan lenders, revolving credit facility lender, and largest shareholder and an exchange agreement with its convertible debenture holders. This represents an important step toward closing a transaction that will significantly reduce the Company’s long-term debt and strengthen its financial position, enabling KLDiscovery to focus on its growth model and investment in market-leading client solutions.

“Our financial results have been solid through this period with consistent revenue in the first two quarters of 2024,” said Christopher Weiler, CEO of KLDiscovery Inc. “Nebula continues to shine and is becoming an even more important component of our overall revenue with revenue growth of 51% year-over-year and 29% quarter-over-quarter. We continue to see increases in data hosted in Nebula and active users using Nebula compared to the same quarter in the prior year.”

Weiler continued, “Last month, we reached a significant milestone with our capital partners that strengthens our balance sheet and will allow us to build upon our long history of excellent client service, which is the industry standard. In our never-ending quest for delivering innovation, later this year we will be adding further customization for Nebula in the regulatory and medical records area.”
