Jack Abuhoff, CEO, said, "Q2 was another record quarter for Innodata - and another across-the-board beat. Revenue, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted EBITDA, and cash all reached new highs, and we exceeded analyst consensus on every key metric. Revenue of $92.1 million grew 58% year-over-year while Adjusted EBITDA grew 92% - operating leverage by definition. This was our 12th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth, and, as in Q1, our quarterly revenue exceeded our annual revenue of just three years ago. Adjusted Gross Margin of 49% now stands nine points above our publicly stated 40% target, driven by mix: off-the-shelf datasets, where we retain intellectual property and monetize the same asset across multiple customers, as well as high-value pre-training programs. Once again, we delivered growth, margin expansion, and cash generation together - while investing in innovation that converts to revenue within quarters, not years. That is the business model working as designed.

"The diversification we planned for has now been delivered. In Q2, our largest customer represented 37% of revenue, down from 56% in Q1, while the Big Tech customer we announced last quarter scaled from 17% of revenue to 34%. While our largest customer contributed less revenue in Q2 than in Q1, we continue to forecast it to grow year-over-year for the full year. We also landed an important new customer in the quarter, one of the fastest-scaling frontier labs. Our base continues to broaden, in both customers and customer programs.

"We are reiterating our full-year 2026 revenue growth guidance of 40% or more year-over-year. There are large potential programs from both new and anticipated customers - likely wins, in our judgment - that are not factored into our 40% number. Once their scope and timing are finalized, we will include them and update guidance accordingly.

"Our growth is increasingly research driven. Through our research efforts, we have established an early position in agentic reinforcement learning, one of the most important frontiers in AI development, winning a significant new program with our largest customer covering personalization of long-horizon agents - now scaling - and a second program covering reinforcement-learning environments for computer-use agentic tasks. We released two public benchmarks designed to surface the failure modes that standard leaderboards miss as well as the first stage of our AI Cyber Training Suite - twelve datasets and evaluation systems that train AI coding agents to write secure code and repair vulnerabilities. We also ran successful egocentric data-collection pilots with leading robotics companies and shifted our data-collection practice from individual pilots to scoping enterprise-scale, multi-modal programs."

A Planned Leadership Transition

Innodata also announced today a planned leadership transition. Effective September 30, 2026, Rahul Singhal will become President and Chief Executive Officer of Innodata and will join the Company's Board of Directors, and Jack Abuhoff, the Company's founder and CEO, will transition into the role of Executive Chairman.

"This is a planned transition, made from a position of strength," said Abuhoff. "Rahul has been a principal architect of Innodata's transformation into a strategic partner to the world's leading AI builders. He knows our customers, he knows our technology, and he knows our people - and he has been central to every element of the strategy behind the results you have seen quarter after quarter. The Board and I didn't have to look far for the right leader. Rahul earned this role - taking on expanding responsibility year after year and delivering every time. As Executive Chairman, I will remain deeply engaged, focused on partnering with Rahul to build capabilities enabled by our research team. Bringing these capabilities to the federal government and to the enterprise, I believe, is where I can best contribute to creating significant shareholder value, and as one of the company's largest shareholders, that is exactly what I want to be doing. Our work with the Mag 7 and the leading AI labs is on a firm path to greater heights and greater diversification. Our Enterprise AI and Federal strategies - built on the differentiated technology we develop for the frontier labs - represent opportunities for potentially driving high quality recurring revenue that results in significant value creation."

Rahul Singhal, incoming President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "I am truly honored by the confidence Jack and the Board have placed in me, and I intend to repay it with results. Innodata has extraordinary momentum, an extraordinary team, and an extraordinary opportunity in front of it. I intend to build on all three. Research and innovation have become our growth engine - the means by which we differentiate, expand existing partnerships, and forge new customer relationships across the full model training lifecycle, from pre-training and post-training to model evaluation and benchmarking."

The Company also recently announced that Jayant Chauhan has joined Innodata as Chief Financial Officer, with Mariz Espineli stepping into the role of Chief Accounting Officer. Beyond the traditional CFO mandate, Jayant will work strategically on capital allocation and capital markets, customer partnerships, M&A, and investor communications.

Abuhoff concluded, "We are confident that 2026 will be a tremendous year for Innodata and its shareholders, and we are excited about the opportunities that lie ahead in 2027 and beyond."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP ("GAAP"), we provide certain non-GAAP financial information. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in making comparisons of period-to-period operating results. In some respects, management believes non-GAAP financial measures are more indicative of our ongoing core operating performance than their GAAP equivalents by making adjustments that management believes are reflective of the ongoing performance of the business.

We believe that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial information provides investors a more complete understanding of our financial performance, competitive position, and prospects for the future, particularly by providing the same information that management and our Board of Directors use to evaluate our performance and manage the business. However, the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release have certain limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of our business as determined in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures that we present may differ from similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin

We define Adjusted Gross Profit as revenues less direct operating costs attributable to Innodata Inc. and its subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP, plus depreciation and amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation and other one-time costs included within direct operating cost.

We define Adjusted Gross Margin by dividing Adjusted Gross Profit over total GAAP revenues.

We use Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin to evaluate results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believe that these measures are important components of our internal performance measurement process.

A reconciliation of Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is included in the tables that accompany this release.

Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income attributable to Innodata Inc. and its subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization of intangible assets (which derives EBITDA), plus additional adjustments for loss on impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, stock-based compensation, income attributable to non-controlling interests and other one-time costs.

We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate core results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believe that these measures are important components of our internal performance measurement process.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is included in the tables that accompany this release.
