Jack Abuhoff, CEO, said, "2025 was a defining year for Innodata. We delivered $72.4 million in fourth-quarter revenue and $251.7 million for the full year - representing 48% annual growth - while exceeding margin targets and analyst consensus across key metrics and investing aggressively in innovation to strengthen our platform, accelerate customer outcomes, and reinforce our leadership in the generative AI value chain.

"We believe we are entering 2026 with extraordinary momentum. Demand across frontier model training, agentic AI, and physical AI is accelerating, and we believe our role is evolving from data supplier to strategic lifecycle partner for some of the world's most advanced AI initiatives.

"Based on current forecasts, we anticipate approximately 35% or more revenue growth in 2026, with potential upside as programs scale," Abuhoff said.

In today's earnings conference call (dial-in information below), Abuhoff plans to discuss Innodata's program of data-centric innovation that is achieving:

• Measurable improvements in model performance through data efficacy-driven LLM training methodologies;

• Up to 25-point gains in AI agent constraint satisfaction under real-world complexity;

• Durable resilience against adversarial attacks through scalable, high-fidelity, data-driven attack simulation systems;

• Enhanced long-context reasoning performance through specialized structured dataset creation;

• Large-scale, high-quality dataset engineering for physical AI and robotics, including egocentric and affordance-rich data;

• A 6.45% improvement over prior state-of-the-art benchmarks in drone and small-object detection; and

• The structural foundation for margin expansion through automation, synthetic data generation, and evaluation platforms.

Abuhoff concluded, "The future of AI will be shaped not only by larger models, but by the precision and rigor of the data ecosystems that make them reliable, adaptable, and production-ready. That is Innodata's domain. We are confident in our leadership and energized by the scale of the opportunity before us."

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, non-recurring severance 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 (loss) 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 (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests, non-recurring severance, 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.
