CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) contains forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Such statements are provided under the “safe harbor” protection of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and include, without limitation, statements concerning the conditions of our industry and our operations, performance, and financial condition, including, in particular, statements relating to our business, growth strategies, product development efforts, and future expenses. Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts and generally can be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” “believes,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “likely,” “may,” and similar references to future periods, or by the inclusion of forecasts or projections. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make regarding the outlook for our future business and financial performance, such as those contained in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy, and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. As a result, our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, we caution you against relying on forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include regional, national, or global political, economic, business, competitive, market, and regulatory conditions and the following:

•significant competition for our Marketing Services solutions and SaaS offerings, including from companies that use components of our SaaS offerings provided by third parties;

•our ability to maintain profitability;

•our ability to manage our growth effectively;

•our ability to transition our Marketing Services clients to our Thryv platform, sell our platform into new markets or further penetrate existing markets;

•our ability to maintain our strategic relationships with third-party service providers;

•internet search engines and portals potentially terminating or materially altering their agreements with us;

•our ability to keep pace with rapid technological changes and evolving industry standards;

•our small to medium-sized businesses (“SMBs”) clients potentially opting not to renew their agreements with us or renewing at lower spend;

•potential system interruptions or failures, including cyber-security breaches, identity theft, data loss, unauthorized access to data or other disruptions that could compromise our information;

•our potential failure to identify suitable acquisition candidates and consummate such acquisitions;

•our ability to successfully integrate acquired businesses into our operations or recognize the benefits of acquisitions, including the failure of an acquired business to achieve its plans and objectives;

•the potential loss of one or more key employees or our inability to attract and to retain highly skilled employees;

•our ability to maintain the compatibility of our Thryv platform with third-party applications;

•our ability to successfully expand our operations and current offerings into new markets, including internationally, or further penetrate existing markets;

•our potential failure to provide new or enhanced functionality and features;

•our potential failure to comply with applicable privacy, security and data laws, regulations and standards;

•potential changes in regulations governing privacy concerns and laws or other domestic or foreign data protection regulations;

•our potential failure to meet service level commitments under our client contracts;

•our potential failure to offer high-quality or technical support services;

•our Thryv platform and add-ons potentially failing to perform properly;

•our use of artificial intelligence in our business, and challenges with properly managing its use, could result in reputational harm, competitive harm, and legal liability;

•the potential impact of future labor negotiations;

•our ability to protect our intellectual property rights, proprietary technology, information, processes, and know-how;

•rising inflation and our ability to control costs, including operating expenses;

•general macro-economic conditions, including a recession or an economic slowdown in the U.S. or internationally; and

•volatility and weakness in bank and capital markets.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1     Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

General

Thryv Holdings, Inc. (“Thryv” or the “Company”) provides small-to-medium sized businesses (“SMBs”) with print and digital marketing services and Software as a Service (“SaaS”) business management tools. The Company owns and operates Print Yellow Pages ("PYP" or “Print”) and digital marketing services (“Digital”), which includes Internet Yellow Pages ("IYP"), search engine marketing ("SEM"), and other digital media services, including online display advertising, and search engine optimization ("SEO") tools. In addition, through the Thryv® platform, the Company is a provider of SaaS business management, communication, and marketing tools designed for SMBs.

On April 3, 2023, Thryv New Zealand Limited, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired Yellow Holdings Limited (“Yellow”), a New Zealand marketing services company.

During the first quarter of 2024, the Company changed the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"). As a result, the Company reevaluated its segment reporting and determined that Thryv U.S. Marketing Services and Thryv International Marketing Services should be reflected as a single reportable segment, and that Thryv U.S. SaaS and Thryv International SaaS should be reflected as a single reportable segment. As such, beginning on January 1, 2024, the results of our Marketing Services and SaaS businesses will be presented as two reportable segments. Comparative prior periods have been recast to reflect the current presentation.

The Company reports its results based on two reportable segments (see Note 15, Segment Information):

•Thryv Marketing Services, which includes the Company's Print and Digital solutions business; and

•Thryv SaaS, which includes the Company's SaaS flagship all-in-one small business management modular software platform.

Basis of Presentation

The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, certain information and disclosures normally included in the complete financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Thryv Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items and accruals, necessary for the fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. The consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual financial statements. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 was derived from the audited annual financial statements. The consolidated results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. The results of those estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of certain assets and liabilities.

7

Examples of reported amounts that rely on significant estimates include revenue recognition, allowance for credit losses, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, capitalized costs to obtain a contract, certain amounts relating to the accounting for income taxes, including valuation allowance, indemnification asset, stock-based compensation expense, operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, accrued service credits, and pension obligations. Significant estimates are also used in determining the recoverability and fair value of fixed assets and capitalized software, operating lease right-of-use assets, goodwill and intangible assets.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company describes its significant accounting policies in Note 1 to the financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no changes to the Company's significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Restricted Cash

The following table presents a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the Company's consolidated balance sheets to the amount shown in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

(in thousands)	March 31, 2024		March 31, 2023
Cash and cash equivalents	$	14,394	$	15,395
Restricted cash, included in Other current assets	2,015		12,615
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	16,409	$	28,010

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 requires additional disclosures, including more detailed information about segment expenses about a public entity’s reportable segments on an annual and interim basis. The new segment disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Management will review the extent of new disclosures necessary in the coming quarters, prior to implementation in the Company's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Other than additional disclosures, the Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-07 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires additional disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The new income tax disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Management will review the extent of new disclosures necessary in the coming years, prior to implementation in the Company's 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Other than additional disclosures, the Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-09 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 2      Acquisitions

Yellow New Zealand Acquisition

On April 3, 2023 (the “Yellow Acquisition Date”), Thryv New Zealand Limited, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired Yellow, a New Zealand marketing services company for $8.9 million in cash (net of $1.7 million of cash acquired), subject to certain adjustments (the “Yellow Acquisition”). The Yellow Acquisition expanded the Company's market share with a broader geographical footprint and provided the Company with an increase in our clients. Yellow is a provider of marketing solutions serving SMBs in New Zealand. Control was obtained by means of acquiring all the voting interests. The assets acquired consisted primarily of $2.4 million in current assets and $5.6 million in fixed and intangible assets, consisting primarily of customer relationships, trade name, and technology assets, along with $5.1 million in goodwill. The Company also assumed liabilities of $4.7 million, consisting primarily of accrued, contract, and deferred liabilities.

The Company accounted for the Yellow Acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). This requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured at fair value. With the assistance of a third-party valuation firm, the Company determined, using Level 3 inputs (see Note 4, Fair Value Measurements), the fair value of certain assets and liabilities, including fixed assets and intangible assets by applying the income approach and the cost approach. Specific to intangible assets, client relationships were valued using a combination of the income and excess earnings approach, whereas trade names were valued using a relief of royalty method and assumptions related to Yellow's assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The fair values of existing technologies were computed using a relief of royalty approach, similar to the trade name valuation.

The following table summarizes the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Yellow Acquisition Date:

(in thousands)
Current assets	$	2,438
Fixed and intangible assets	5,565
Other assets	457
Current liabilities	(3,533)
Other liabilities	(1,159)
Goodwill	5,129
Fair value allocated to net assets acquired	$	8,897

The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired and the liabilities assumed was allocated to goodwill. The recognized goodwill of $5.1 million was primarily related to the benefits expected from the acquisition and was allocated to the Thryv Marketing Services segment. The goodwill recognized is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Note 3      Revenue Recognition

The Company has determined that each of its Print and Digital marketing services and SaaS business management tools services is distinct and represents a separate performance obligation. The client can benefit from each service on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the client. Services are separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. Control over the Company’s Print services transfers to the client upon delivery of the published directories containing their advertisements to the intended market(s). Therefore, revenue associated with Print services is recognized at a point in time upon delivery to the intended market(s). The Company bills clients for Print advertising services monthly over the relative contract term. The difference between the timing of recognition of Print advertising revenue and monthly billing generates the Company’s unbilled receivables balance. The unbilled receivables balance is reclassified as billed accounts receivable through the passage of time as the clients are invoiced each month. SaaS and Digital marketing services are recognized using the series guidance. Under the series guidance, the Company's obligation to provide services is the same for each day under the contract, and therefore represents a single performance obligation. Revenue associated with SaaS and Digital marketing services is recognized over time using an output method to measure the progress toward satisfying a performance obligation.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company presents disaggregated revenue based on the type of service within its segment footnote. See Note 15, Segment Information.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of billing to the Company’s clients. These timing differences result in receivables, contract assets, or contract liabilities (deferred revenue) as disclosed on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Contract assets represent the Company's right to consideration when revenue recognized exceeds the receivable from the client because the consideration allocated to fulfilled performance obligations exceeds the Company’s right to payment, and the right to payment is subject to more than the passage of time. Contract liabilities represent remaining performance obligations that consist of advance payments and revenue deferrals resulting from the allocation of the consideration to performance obligations. The Company recognizes revenue on all of its remaining performance obligations within the next twelve months. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized revenue of $28.5 million that was recorded in Contract liabilities as of December 31, 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized revenue of $29.7 million that was recorded in Contract liabilities as of December 31, 2022.

Note 4     Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to settle a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To increase the comparability of fair value measures, the following hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation methodologies used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's own assumptions incorporated into valuation techniques.

These valuations require significant judgment.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. When there is more than one input at different levels within the hierarchy, the fair value is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires substantial judgment and consideration of factors specific to the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are inherently difficult to estimate. Changes to these inputs can have a significant impact on fair value measurements. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs are based on one or more of the following valuation techniques: market approach, income approach or cost approach.

10

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company’s non-financial assets such as goodwill, intangible assets, fixed assets, capitalized software and operating lease right-of-use assets are adjusted to fair value when the net book values of the assets exceed their respective fair values, resulting in an impairment charge. Such fair value measurements are predominantly based on Level 3 inputs.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Indemnification Asset

On June 30, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of YP Holdings, Inc. (the “YP Acquisition”). As further discussed in Note 13, Contingent Liabilities, as part of the YP Acquisition agreement, the Company was indemnified for an uncertain tax position for up to the fair value of 1,804,715 shares held in escrow, subject to certain contract limitations (the “indemnification asset”).

On June 22, 2023, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the sellers regarding the settlement of the indemnification asset. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the Company and the sellers agreed (i) that the sellers would pay and indemnify the Company for $15.8 million of indemnified taxes (the “Indemnity Amount”) and (ii) that the Indemnity Amount would be deemed satisfied by the transfer of 613,954 outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock from the sellers back to the Company, which were returned to treasury and reduced the number of outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. Furthermore, the sellers would be entitled to retain 1,190,761 currently outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock that previously secured the sellers' tax indemnity obligations under the YP Acquisition agreement.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company no longer recorded a Level 1 indemnification asset because it was settled on June 22, 2023. A gain of $0.8 million from the change in fair value of the Company’s Level 1 indemnification asset during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was recorded in General and administrative expense on the Company's consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The $15.8 million Indemnity Amount, which was the fair value of the shares returned to treasury, was recorded in Treasury stock on the Company's consolidated balance sheets, along with the 613,954 shares that the Company received from the sellers, as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Benefit Plan Assets

The fair value of benefit plan assets is measured and recorded on the Company's consolidated balance sheets using Level 2 inputs. See Note 9, Pensions.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company considers the carrying amounts of cash, trade receivables, and accounts payable to approximate fair value because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization or payment.

Additionally, the Company considers the carrying amounts of its ABL Facility (as defined in Note 8, Debt Obligations) and financing obligations to approximate their respective fair values due to their short-term nature and approximation of interest rates to market rates. These fair value measurements are considered Level 2. See Note 8, Debt Obligations.

The Term Loan (as defined in Note 8, Debt Obligations) is carried at amortized cost; however, the Company estimates the fair value of the Term Loan for disclosure purposes. The fair value of the Term Loan is determined based on quoted prices that are observable in the marketplace and are classified as Level 2 measurements. See Note 8, Debt Obligations.

The following table sets forth the carrying amount and fair value of the Term Loan:

	March 31, 2024				December 31, 2023
(in thousands)	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Term Loan, net	$	291,831	$	293,839	$	300,052	$	300,052

(1)    Yellow was included in the Thryv Marketing Services reporting unit.

In the first quarter of 2024, the Company changed its reporting structure from four to two reporting units. Accordingly, the Company assessed its goodwill for impairment under a four reporting unit structure prior to the assessment. Upon completion of this assessment, the Company determined that no impairment existed. Subsequent to this review and after allocating goodwill to the new reporting units based on relative fair value, the Company reassessed goodwill for impairment at the new reporting unit level (i.e., the Marketing Services and SaaS reporting units). Based upon each of these assessments, the Company determined no impairment existed for any of the Company's reporting units.

Term Loan

On March 1, 2021, the Company entered into a Term Loan credit agreement (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan established a senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $700.0 million, of which 38.4% was held by related parties who were equity holders of the Company as of March 1, 2021. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no portion of the Term Loan was held by related parties.

The Term Loan Facility matures on March 1, 2026. Through the six months ended June 30, 2023, borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bore interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, LIBOR or a base rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin per annum equal to (i) 8.50% (for LIBOR loans) and (ii) 7.50% (for base rate loans). The Term Loan Facility requires mandatory amortization payments equal to $17.5 million per fiscal quarter.

On June 21, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement to amend the Term Loan Facility (the “Term Loan Amendment”). The Term Loan Amendment replaced the LIBOR-based rate with a SOFR-based rate. Effective June 30, 2023, borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, SOFR or a base rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin per annum equal to (i) 8.50% (for SOFR loans) and (ii) 7.50% (for base rate loans). In connection with these amendments, the Company applied the modification accounting relief provided by the FASB in ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”.

On May 1, 2024, the Company entered into a new Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”), the proceeds of which were used to refinance and pay off in full the Company’s previous term loan facility and to pay fees and expenses related to the refinancing. The Current portion of Term Loan reflects the current portion of the mandatory amortization payments under the new Term Loan Agreement. See Note 16, Subsequent Events.

The Company has recorded accrued interest of $1.3 million and $1.1 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Accrued interest is included in Other current liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

The Term Loan, which was incurred by Thryv, Inc., the Company’s operating subsidiary, is secured by all the assets of Thryv, Inc., certain of its subsidiaries and the Company, and is guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries.

14

Term Loan Covenants

The Term Loan contains certain covenants that, subject to exceptions, limit or restrict the borrower's incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens, investments, loans, advances, guarantees, acquisitions, sales of assets, sale-leaseback transactions, swap agreements, payments of dividends or distributions, payments in respect of certain indebtedness, certain affiliate transactions, restrictive amendments to agreements, changes in business, amendments of certain material documents, capital expenditures, mergers, consolidations and liquidations, and use of the proceeds. Additionally, the Company is required to maintain compliance with a Total Net Leverage Ratio, calculated as Net Debt to Consolidated EBITDA, which shall not be greater than 3.0 to 1.0 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with its Term Loan covenants. The Company also expects to be in compliance with these covenants for the next twelve months.

ABL Facility

On March 1, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to amend (the “ABL Amendment”) the June 30, 2017 asset-based lending (“ABL”) facility (the “ABL Facility”). The ABL Amendment was entered into in order to permit the term loan refinancing, the Thryv Australia Acquisition and make certain other changes to the ABL credit agreement, including, among others:

•revise the maximum revolver amount to $175.0 million;

•reduce the interest rate per annum to (i) 3-month LIBOR plus 3.00% for LIBOR loans and (ii) base rate plus 2.00% for base rate loans;

•reduce the commitment fee on undrawn amounts under the ABL Facility to 0.375%;

•extend the maturity date of the ABL Facility to the earlier of March 1, 2026 and 91 days prior to the stated maturity

date of the Term Loan Facility;

•add the Australian subsidiaries acquired pursuant to the Thryv Australia Acquisition as borrowers and guarantors, and establish an Australian borrowing base; and

•make certain other conforming changes consistent with the Term Loan agreement.

On June 1, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement to amend its existing ABL Facility (the “ABL Seventh Amendment”). The ABL Seventh Amendment replaced the 3-month LIBOR benchmark applicable to the facility with a SOFR-based rate, defined as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR. Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR plus 3.00% for SOFR loans and (ii) base rate plus 2.00% for base rate loans. In connection with these amendments, the Company applied the modification accounting relief provided by the FASB in ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had debt issuance costs with a remaining balance of $1.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively. These debt issuance costs are included in Other assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had borrowing base availability of $40.2 million. As a result of certain restrictions in the Company's debt agreements, as of March 31, 2024, approximately $27.9 million was available to be drawn upon under the ABL Facility.

ABL Facility Covenants

The ABL Facility contains certain covenants that, subject to exceptions, limit or restrict the borrower's incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens, investments, loans, advances, guarantees, acquisitions, disposals of assets, payments of certain indebtedness, certain affiliate transactions, changes in fiscal year or accounting methods, issuance or sale of equity instruments, mergers, liquidations and consolidations, use of proceeds, maintenance of certain deposit accounts, compliance with certain ERISA requirements and compliance with certain Australian tax requirements. The Company is required to maintain compliance with a fixed charge coverage ratio that must exceed a ratio of 1.00. The fixed charge coverage ratio is defined as, with respect to any fiscal period determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP, the ratio of (a) Consolidated EBITDA as defined in the ABL credit agreement for such period minus capital expenditures incurred during such period, to (b) fixed charges. Fixed charges is defined as, with respect to any fiscal period determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP, the sum, without duplication, of (a) consolidated interest expense accrued (other than amortization of debt issuance costs, and other non-cash interest expense) during such period, (b) scheduled principal

15

payments in respect of indebtedness paid during such period, (c) all federal, state, and local income taxes accrued during such period, (d) all management, consulting, monitoring, and advisory fees paid to certain individuals or their affiliates during such period, and (e) all restricted payments paid during such period (whether in cash or other property, other than common equity interest). The Company is also required to maintain excess availability of at least $14.0 million, and U.S. excess availability of $10.0 million, in each case, at all times. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with its ABL Facility covenants. The Company also expects to be in compliance with these covenants for the next twelve months.

Note 9     Pensions

The Company maintains pension obligations associated with non-contributory defined benefit pension plans that are currently frozen and incur no additional service costs.

The Company immediately recognizes actuarial gains and losses in its operating results in the period in which the gains and losses occur. The Company estimates the interest cost component of net periodic pension cost by utilizing a full yield curve approach and applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used in the determination of the benefit obligations of the relevant projected cash flows. This method provides a more precise measurement of interest costs by improving the correlation between projected cash flows to the corresponding spot yield curve rates.

Net Periodic Pension Cost

The following table details the other components of net periodic pension cost for the Company's pension plans:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands)	2024		2023
Interest cost	$	4,824	$	3,504
Expected return on assets	(3,243)		(3,383)
Net periodic pension cost	$	1,581	$	121

Since all pension plans are frozen and no employees accrue future pension benefits under any of the pension plans, the rate of compensation increase assumption is no longer needed. The Company determines the weighted-average discount rate by applying a yield curve comprised of the yields on several hundred high-quality, fixed income corporate bonds available on the measurement date to expected future benefit cash flows.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company made no contributions to the qualified plans and contributions and associated payments of $0.1 million to the non-qualified plans. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company made no cash contributions to the qualified plans, and contributions and associated payments of $0.1 million to the non-qualified plans.

For the fiscal year 2024, the Company expects to contribute approximately $6.0 million to the qualified plans and approximately $0.5 million to the non-qualified plans.

Restricted Stock Units

The following table sets forth the Company's restricted stock unit (“RSU”) activity during the three months ended March 31, 2024:

	Number of Restricted Stock Units	Weighted-Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Nonvested balance as of December 31, 2023	992,464	$	21.52
Granted	815,260	18.26
Vested	(374,520)	21.93
Forfeited	(139,276)	19.37
Nonvested balance as of March 31, 2024	1,293,928	$	19.58

The Company grants RSUs to the Company's employees and non-employee directors under the Company’s 2020 Incentive Award Plan (the “2020 Plan”). Pursuant to the RSU award agreements, each RSU entitles the recipient to one share of the Company’s common stock, subject to time-based vesting conditions set forth in individual agreements.

The fair value of each RSU grant is determined based upon the market closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The RSUs vest over the requisite service period, which ranges between one year and three years from the date of grant, subject to the continued employment of the employees and services of the non-employee board members.

As of March 31, 2024, the unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to the unvested portion of the Company's RSU awards was approximately $22.3 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.19 years.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company issued an aggregate of 374,520 shares of common stock to employees and non-employee directors upon the vesting of RSUs previously granted under the 2020 Plan.

Nonvested balance as of March 31, 2024	1,460,411	$	21.89

The Company also grants PSUs to employees under the Company’s 2020 Plan. Pursuant to the PSU Award Agreement, each PSU entitles the recipient to up to 1.5 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain performance measures set forth in individual agreements.

The PSUs will vest, if at all, following the achievement of certain performance measures over a three year performance period, relative to certain performance and market conditions. The grant date fair value of PSUs that vest relative to a performance condition is measured based upon the market closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant and expensed on a straight-line basis when it becomes probable that the performance conditions will be satisfied, net of forfeitures, over the service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting term of three years. The grant date fair value of PSUs that vest relative to a market condition is measured using a Monte Carlo simulation model and expensed on a straight-line basis, net of forfeitures, over the service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting term of three years. As of March 31, 2024, the nonvested balance of PSUs that vest based on performance and market conditions are 712,328 and 1,068,473 shares, respectively.

As of March 31, 2024, the unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to the unvested portion of the Company's PSU awards was approximately $18.9 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.87 years.

Stock Options

As of March 31, 2024, the unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to the unvested portion of the Company's stock options was approximately $0.3 million, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.54 years. As of March 31, 2024, there were 83,334 stock options expected to vest with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $12.98.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company issued an aggregate of 270,943 shares of common stock to employees upon the exercise of options previously granted under the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan and 2020 Plan at exercise prices ranging from $3.68 to $13.82 per share.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company issued an aggregate of 113,620 shares of common stock to employees upon the exercise of options previously granted under the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan and 2020 Plan at exercise prices ranging from $3.68 to $13.82 per share.

The Company's ETR differs from the 21.0% U.S. Federal statutory rate primarily due to permanent differences, including state taxes, non-deductible executive compensation, non-U.S. taxing jurisdictions, tax credits, change in valuation allowance due to expiring net operating losses, and the discrete impact of interest accrual on uncertain tax positions.

19

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $17.8 million and $17.1 million, respectively, excluding interest and penalties, that if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $9.5 million and $9.0 million, respectively, recorded for interest on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company engages in continuous discussions and negotiations with tax authorities regarding tax matters in various jurisdictions. The Company expects to complete resolution of certain tax years with various tax authorities within the next 12 months. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that its existing gross unrecognized tax benefits may be reduced by up to $15.6 million within the next 12 months, affecting the Company’s ETR if realized. See Note 13, Contingent Liabilities.

Risks Related to Taxes and Tariffs

The international tax environment remains highly uncertain and increasingly complex as evidenced by initiatives put forth by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”), which includes the introduction of a global minimum tax at a rate of 15% under the OECD’s Pillar Two rules. We continue to monitor these proposals closely and, if enacted by various countries in which we do business, they may increase our taxes in the applicable jurisdictions or cause us to change the way we operate our business and result in increased taxation of our international earnings. As of the quarter ended March 31, 2024, Pillar Two legislation enacted by countries in which Thryv operates is not expected to materially impact the Company’s taxes in 2024.

Note 13     Contingent Liabilities

Litigation

The Company is subject to various lawsuits and other claims in the normal course of business. In addition, from time to time, the Company receives communications from government or regulatory agencies concerning investigations or allegations of noncompliance with laws or regulations in jurisdictions in which the Company operates.

The Company establishes reserves for the estimated losses on specific contingent liabilities for regulatory and legal actions where the Company deems a loss to be probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In other instances, losses are considered probable, but the Company is not able to make a reasonable estimate of the liability because of the uncertainties related to the outcome or the amount or range of potential loss. For these matters, disclosure is made when material, but no amount is reserved. The Company does not expect that the ultimate resolution of pending regulatory and legal matters in future periods will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, balance sheets or cash flows.

Section 199 and Research and Development Tax Case

Section 199 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Tax Code”), provides for deductions for manufacturing performed in the U.S. The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) has taken the position that directory providers are not entitled to take advantage of the deductions because printing vendors are already taking deductions and only one taxpayer can claim the deduction. The Tax Code also grants tax credits related to research and development expenditures. The IRS also takes the position that the expenditures have not been sufficiently documented to be eligible for the tax credit. The Company disagrees with these positions.

The IRS has challenged the Company's positions. With respect to the tax years 2012 through June 2015 for the YP LLC partnership, the IRS sent 90-day notices to DexYP on August 29, 2018. In response, the Company filed three petitions (in the names of various related partners) in U.S. Tax Court, and the IRS filed answers to those petitions. The three cases were consolidated by the court and were referred back to IRS Administrative Appeals for settlement negotiations, during which time the litigation was suspended. Several appeals conferences for YP have been held. The Company is working through ongoing settlement negotiations with the Appeals Officer related to the Section 199 disallowance. The Company and the IRS also reached an agreement regarding additional research and development tax credits for the tax years at issue whereby the IRS will allow more tax credits than were originally claimed on the tax returns. With respect to the tax year from July to December 2015 for the Print Media LLC partnership, the Company has been unsuccessful in its attempt to negotiate a settlement with IRS Appeals, and the IRS issued a 90-day notice to the Company. The Company filed a petition in the U.S. Tax Court to challenge the IRS denial.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company has reserved $26.6 million and $26.1 million, respectively, in connection with the Section 199 disallowance and less than $0.1 million related to the research and development tax credit

20

disallowance. See Note 4, Fair Value Measurements, for a discussion of the Company's former indemnification asset related to these matters.

On May 22, 2023, the Company received a draft Appeals Settlement document (“Draft Settlement”) from the IRS relating to the IRC Section 199 tax case. Once finalized, the Draft Settlement will result in a decrease in the unrecognized tax benefit recorded for this tax position. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded a measurement adjustment to the uncertain tax position liability to account for the new information received from the Draft Settlement. The Company is in continued discussion with the IRS regarding the finalization of this case and final tax impact that will result. As of March 31, 2024, the final settlement has not been issued by the IRS. Accordingly, the Company does not consider the matter effectively settled.

Note 15     Segment Information

During the first quarter of 2024, the Company changed the internal reporting provided to the CODM. As a result, the Company reevaluated its segment reporting, as discussed in Note 1, Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The Company determined that the Company manages its operations using two operating segments, which are also its reportable segments: (1) Thryv Marketing Services and (2) Thryv SaaS. Comparative prior periods have been recast to reflect the current presentation.

The Company does not allocate assets to its segments and the CODM does not evaluate performance or allocate resources based on segment asset data, and therefore, such information is not presented.

The following tables summarize the operating results of the Company's reportable segments:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2024

Note 16     Subsequent Events

Financing Agreements

Term Loan Agreement

On May 1, 2024, the Company entered into the new Term Loan Agreement, the proceeds of which were used to refinance and pay off in full the Company’s previous term loan facility and to pay fees and expenses related to the refinancing.

The Term Loan Agreement established a senior secured term loan facility (the “New Term Loan Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $350.0 million. The New Term Loan Facility matures on May 1, 2029 and borrowings under the New Term Loan Facility will bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, SOFR or base rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin per annum equal to (i) 6.75% (for SOFR loans) and (ii) 5.75% (for base rate loans). The New Term Loan Facility requires mandatory amortization payments, paid quarterly commencing June 30, 2024, equal to (i) $52.5 million per year for the first two years following the closing date of the Term Loan Agreement, and (ii) $35.0 million per year thereafter.

ABL Credit Agreement

On May 1, 2024, the Company entered into a new Credit Agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”), which established a new $85.0 million asset-based revolving loan facility (the “New ABL Facility”). The New ABL Facility refinanced the Company’s previous asset-based revolving loan facility. Proceeds of the New ABL Facility may be used by the Company for ongoing general corporate purposes and working capital.

As of May 1, 2024, the Company had borrowing base availability of $55.0 million. As a result of certain restrictions in the Company's debt agreements, as of May 1, 2024, approximately $44.4 million was available to be drawn upon under the New ABL Facility.

The New ABL Facility matures on May 1, 2028 and borrowings under the New ABL Facility will bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, SOFR or base rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin per annum, depending on the average excess availability under the New ABL Facility, equal to (i) 2.50%-2.75% (for SOFR loans) and (ii) 1.50%-1.75% (for base rate loans). The fee for undrawn commitments under the New ABL Facility is equal to 0.375% per annum.

Share Repurchase Program

On April 30, 2024, the Board authorized a new share repurchase program (the “Share Repurchase Program”), under which the Company may repurchase up to $40.0 million in shares of Common Stock through April 30, 2029. The repurchase program will be subject to market conditions, the periodic capital needs of the Company’s operating activities, and the continued satisfaction of all covenants under the Company’s new Term Loan Agreement and ABL Credit Agreement. The Share Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to repurchase shares and may be suspended, terminated, or modified at any time. As of May 2, 2024, the Company had not repurchased any shares under the Share Repurchase Program.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is a discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations as of, and for, the periods presented and should be read in conjunction with our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding industry outlook, our expectations for the future of our business, and our liquidity and capital resources as well as other non-historical statements. These statements are based on current expectations and are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to the risks and uncertainties described in “Risk Factors” in our 2023 Form 10-K, elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, particularly Part II, Item 1A. "Risk Factors," and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by these forward-looking statements.

Overview

We are dedicated to supporting local, independent businesses and franchises by providing innovative marketing solutions and cloud-based tools to the entrepreneurs who run them. We are one of the largest providers of SaaS end-to-end customer experience tools and digital marketing solutions (“Digital”) to small-to-medium sized businesses (“SMBs”). Our solutions enable our SMB clients to generate new business leads, manage their customer relationships and run their day-to-day business operations. We serve approximately 330,000 SMB clients globally through two business segments: Thryv Marketing Services and Thryv SaaS.

Our Thryv Marketing Services segment provides both print and digital solutions and generated $159.3 million and $185.6 million of consolidated revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Our Marketing Services offerings include our owned and operated Print Yellow Pages (“Print”), which carry the “The Real Yellow Pages” tagline, our proprietary Internet Yellow Pages, known by the Yellowpages.com, Superpages.com, and Dexknows.com URLs, search engine marketing solutions and other digital media solutions, which include online display advertising, online presence, and search engine optimization tools. Our Thryv Marketing Services segment includes Thryv Australia Pty Ltd (“Thryv Australia”), and Yellow Holdings Limited (“Yellow”), a New Zealand marketing services company, which we acquired on April 3, 2023 for $8.9 million in cash (the “Yellow Acquisition”), subject to certain adjustments. Thryv Australia and Yellow serve approximately 90,000 and 18,000 SMBs, respectively, many of which we believe are ideal candidates for the Thryv platform.

Our Thryv SaaS segment generated $74.3 million and $59.9 million of consolidated revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Our primary SaaS offerings are comprised of Thryv®, our flagship all-in-one small business management platform (“Thryv Platform”), which includes Command Center, Business Center, Marketing Center, ThryvPaySM, and Thryv Add-Ons. Thryv Command Center enables SMBs to centralize all their communications through a modular, easily expandable, and customizable platform. Command Center allows an SMB to do the following to provide a centralized inbox for all customer communication:

•Connect their pre-existing email, Facebook and Instagram accounts;

•Install Command Center’s WebChat client on their website; and

•Use Voice over Internet Protocol (“VoIP”) in-platform telephony services, Short Message Service (“SMS”) and video calls.

Thryv Business Center is designed to allow a SMB everything necessary to streamline day-to-day business, including customer relationship management, appointment scheduling, estimate and invoice creation, and online review management. Thryv Marketing Center is a fully integrated next generation marketing and advertising platform operated by the end user. Marketing Center contains everything a small business owner needs to market and grow their business effectively, including easy to understand, artificial intelligence (“AI”) driven analytics. ThryvPaySM, is our own branded payment solution that allows users to get paid via credit card and ACH and is tailored to service focused businesses that want to provide consumers safe, contactless, and fast-online payment options. Thryv Add-Ons include AI-assisted website development, SEO tools, Google Business Profile optimization, and Hub by ThryvSM. These optional platform subscription-based add-ons provide a seamless user experience for our end-users and drive higher engagement within the Thryv Platform while also producing incremental revenue growth.

Our expertise in delivering solutions for our client base is rooted in our deep history of serving SMBs. In 2024, SMB demand for integrated technology solutions continues to grow as SMBs adapt their business and service model to facilitate remote working and virtual interactions.

24

Factors Affecting Our Performance

Our operations can be impacted by, among other factors, general economic conditions and increased competition with the introduction of new technologies and market entrants. We believe that our performance and future success depend on several factors that present significant opportunities for us, but also pose risks and challenges, including those listed below and those discussed in the section titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Ability to Attract and Retain Clients

Our revenue growth is driven by our ability to attract and retain SMB clients. To do so, we must deliver solutions that address the challenges currently faced by SMBs at a value-based price point that SMBs can afford.

Our strategy is to expand the use of our solutions by introducing our SaaS solutions to new SMB clients, as well as our current Thryv Marketing Services clients. This strategy includes capitalizing on the increased needs of SMBs for solutions that facilitate a remote working environment and virtual interactions. This strategy will require substantial sales and marketing capital.

Investment in Growth

We intend to continue to develop and grow a profitable SaaS segment to better help SMBs manage their businesses, while maintaining strong profitability within our Marketing Services segment, which serves as an efficient customer acquisition channel for our SaaS platform. As a result, SaaS has been able to achieve profitable growth. We will continue to improve our SaaS solutions by analyzing user behavior, expanding features, improving usability, enhancing our onboarding services and customer support and making version updates available to SMBs. We believe these initiatives will ultimately drive revenue growth; however, such improvements will also increase our operating expenses.

Ability to Grow Through Acquisition

Our growth prospects depend upon our ability to successfully develop new markets. We currently serve SMB markets in the United States, Australia, New Zealand and Canada and plan to leverage strategic acquisitions or initiatives to expand our client base domestically and enter new markets internationally. Identifying proper targets and executing strategic acquisitions may take substantial time and capital. On April 3, 2023, we completed the acquisition of Yellow, a New Zealand marketing services company. We believe that strategic acquisitions of marketing services companies globally will expand our client base and provide additional opportunities to offer our SaaS solutions.

Print Publication Cycle

We recognize revenue for print services at a point in time upon delivery of the published PYP directories containing customer advertisements to the intended market. Our PYP directories typically have 12-month publication cycles in Australia, 18-month publication cycles in New Zealand, and 15 to 18-month publication cycles in the U.S. As a result, we typically record revenue for each publication only once every 12 to 18 months, depending on the publication cycle of the directory. The amount of revenue we recognize each quarter from our PYP directories is therefore directly related to the number of PYP directories we deliver to the intended market each quarter, which can vary based on the timing of the publication cycles.

25

Key Business Metrics

We review several operating metrics, including the following key business metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate financial projections and make strategic decisions. We believe these key metrics are useful to investors both because they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, and they may be used by investors to help analyze the health of our business.

Total Clients

We define total clients as the number of SMB accounts with one or more revenue-generating solutions in a particular period. For quarter- and year-ending periods, total clients from the last month in the period are reported. A single client may have separate revenue-generating accounts for multiple Marketing Services solutions or SaaS offerings, but we count these as one client when the accounts are managed by the same business entity or individual. Although infrequent, where a single organization has multiple subsidiaries, divisions, or segments, each business entity that is invoiced by us is treated as a separate client. We believe that the number of total clients is an indicator of our market penetration and potential future business opportunities. We view the mix between Marketing Services clients and SaaS clients as an indicator of potential future opportunities to offer our SaaS solutions to our Marketing Services clients.

	As of March 31,
(in thousands)	2024	2023
Clients (1)
Marketing Services (2)	295	348
SaaS (3)	70	54
Total (4)	328	372

(1)     Clients include total clients from both of our business segments: Thryv Marketing Services and Thryv SaaS.

(2)     Clients that purchase one or more of our Marketing Services solutions are included in this metric. These clients may or may not also purchase subscriptions to our SaaS offerings.

(3)     Clients that purchase subscriptions to our SaaS offerings are included in this metric. These clients may or may not also purchase one or more of our Marketing Services solutions.

(4)     Total clients is less than the sum of the Marketing Services and SaaS, since clients that purchase both Marketing Services and SaaS products are counted in each category, but only counted once in the Total.

Marketing Services clients decreased by 53 thousand, or 15%, as of March 31, 2024 as compared to March 31, 2023. The decrease in Marketing Services clients was related to the secular decline in the print media industry and significant competition in the digital media space and from focusing on offering our SaaS solutions to our current Marketing Services clients. This was partially offset by acquisitions of companies with Marketing Services clients.

SaaS clients increased by 16 thousand, or 30%, as of March 31, 2024 as compared to March 31, 2023. The increase in SaaS clients resulted from focusing on offering our SaaS solutions to our current Marketing Services clients, as well as continuing to focus on new SaaS client acquisition through improved identification of prospects, improved selling methods, introduction of new product features, and a small but growing international footprint.

Total clients decreased by 44 thousand, or 12%, as of March 31, 2024 as compared to March 31, 2023. The primary driver of the decrease in total clients was the secular decline in the print media business combined with increasing competition in the digital media space, partially offset by an increase in SaaS clients and acquisitions of companies with established clients.

Monthly ARPU

We define monthly average revenue per unit (“ARPU”) as our total client billings for a particular month divided by the number of clients that have one or more revenue-generating solutions in that same month. For each reporting period, the weighted-average monthly ARPU from all the months in the period are reported. ARPU varies based on product mix, product volumes, and the amounts we charge for our services. We believe that ARPU is an important measure of client spend and growth in ARPU is an indicator of client satisfaction with our services.

26

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023
ARPU (Monthly)
Marketing Services	$	145	$	167
SaaS	369		379

Monthly ARPU for Marketing Services decreased by $22, or 13%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in ARPU for these periods was related to reduced spend by clients on our print media offerings due to the secular decline of the industry, caused by the continuing shift of advertising spend to less expensive digital media. This decrease in ARPU was further driven by a reduction of our resale of high-spend, low margin third-party local search and display services that were not hosted on our owned and operated platforms.

Monthly ARPU for SaaS decreased by $10, or 3%, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in SaaS ARPU during the three months ended March 31, 2024 resulted from our strategic decision to accelerate the conversion of clients from digital Marketing Services solutions to SaaS solutions at a price lower than some of our SaaS products. The sale of Marketing Center to our SaaS clients offset a portion of the SaaS decline.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023

Revenue

The following table summarizes Revenue by business segment for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended March 31,				Change
	2024		2023		Amount		%
(in thousands of $)	(unaudited)
Thryv Marketing Services	$	159,302	$	185,626	$	(26,324)	(14.2)	%
Thryv SaaS	74,322		59,929		14,393		24.0	%
Revenue	$	233,624	$	245,555	$	(11,931)	(4.9)	%

Revenue decreased by $11.9 million, or 4.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was driven by a decrease in Thryv Marketing Services revenue of $26.3 million, partially offset by an increase in Thryv SaaS revenue of $14.4 million.

Thryv Marketing Services Revenue

Thryv Marketing Services revenue decreased by $26.3 million, or 14.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Print revenue increased by $7.3 million, or 9.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. This increase in Print revenue was primarily driven by the impact of publication timing differences of our U.S directories, as a result of our Print agreements having greater than 12 month terms. This increase was partially offset by the continued secular decline in U.S. and international industry demand for Print services.

Print revenue is recognized upon delivery of the published directories. Individual published directories have different publication cycles, with a typical lifecycle of 18 months for U.S. directories. As a result of recognizing revenue upon delivery, we typically record revenue for each published U.S. directory only once every 18 months, depending on the publication cycle of the individual published directory, which does not make comparing quarterly revenue year-over-year fully representative of actual demand trends due to timing of publication cycles. The Company recognized revenue for more published directories during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. This increase in published directories was partially offset by the secular decline in industry demand for Print services, resulting in an overall 31% decline in revenue for the quarter when comparing on a publication-by-publication basis.

Digital revenue decreased by $33.6 million, or 31.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by a continued trending decline in the Company’s Marketing Services client base and significant competition in the consumer search and display space, particularly from large, well-capitalized businesses such as Google, Yelp and Facebook. Digital revenue further decreased as a result of the Company’s strategic decision during the fourth quarter of 2023 to accelerate the upgrade of clients from its digital Marketing Services solutions to its SaaS solutions.

Thryv SaaS Revenue

Thryv SaaS revenue increased by $14.4 million, or 24.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was driven by increased demand for our Thryv SaaS solutions as SMBs accelerate their move away from manual processes and towards cloud platforms to more efficiently manage and grow their businesses, and by our success in re-focusing our go-to-market and onboarding strategy to target higher value clients. SaaS revenue also increased as a result of the Company’s strategic decision during the fourth quarter of 2023 to accelerate the conversion of clients from its digital Marketing Services solutions to its SaaS solutions.

Cost of Services

Cost of services decreased by $10.8 million, or 11.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. This decrease was primarily driven by the corresponding decline in revenue and strategic cost saving initiatives. Specifically, we reduced printing, distribution, digital and fulfillment costs by $4.8 million, contract

29

services by $3.1 million and employee-related expenses by $1.1 million. Additionally, depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $1.2 million, driven by the accelerated amortization method used by the Company.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased by $1.2 million, or 0.8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in Gross profit was primarily due to a decrease in Marketing Services revenue, partially offset by an increase in SaaS revenue and a decrease in cost of services as a result of the decline in revenue and strategic cost saving initiatives. Our gross margin increased by 280 basis points to 65.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to 63.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This increase was primarily due to an increase in sales of our higher margin SaaS solutions and the reduction of our resale of high-spend, low margin third-party local search and display services that were not hosted on our owned and operated platforms.

Operating Expenses

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expense decreased by $6.3 million, or 8.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in employee-related costs and contract services expense of $2.8 million due to strategic cost-saving initiatives, a decrease in stock based compensation of $1.6 million, and a decrease in sales commissions of $1.1 million due to new sales commissions plans and revised targets.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expense increased by $4.7 million, or 9.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in bad debt expense of $2.1 million, an increase in employee-related costs and contract services expense of $1.8 million, and an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $1.5 million

Other Income (Expense)

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased by $3.1 million, or 19.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, driven primarily by the lower outstanding debt balances resulting from payments made on our Term Loan and ABL Facility.

Other Components of Net Periodic Pension Cost

Other components of net periodic pension cost increased by $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to higher interest cost of $1.3 million due to higher interest rates during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Other (Expense)

Other (expense) increased by $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The Company recorded a $2.4 million foreign currency-related loss during the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to a $0.9 million foreign currency-related gain during three months ended March 31, 2023.

Income Tax Expense

The Company's effective tax rate (“ETR”) was 39.0% and 32.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company's ETR differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to permanent differences including state taxes, non-deductible executive compensation, non-U.S. taxing jurisdictions, tax credits, change in valuation allowance due to expiring net operating losses, and the discrete impact of interest accrual on uncertain tax positions.

30

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $4.4 million, or 7.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by the secular decline in our Thryv Marketing Services segment. The decrease was partially offset by the growth in our Thryv SaaS segment. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a definition of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation to Net income, the most directly comparable measure presented in accordance with GAAP.

31

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. We also present Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, and Adjusted Gross Margin, as defined below, as non-GAAP financial measures in this Quarterly Report.

We have included Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, and Adjusted Gross Margin in this report because management believes they provide useful information to investors in gaining an overall understanding of our current financial performance and provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance. Specifically, we believe Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to management and investors by excluding certain non-operating items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, and Adjusted Gross Margin are used by management for budgeting and forecasting as well as measuring the Company’s performance. We believe Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, and Adjusted Gross Margin provide investors with the financial measures that closely align with our internal processes.

We define Adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”) as Net income plus Interest expense, Income tax expense, Depreciation and amortization expense, Restructuring and integration expenses, Transaction costs, Stock-based compensation expense, and non-operating expenses, such as, Other components of net periodic pension cost, Non-cash gain from remeasurement of indemnification asset, and certain unusual and non-recurring charges that might have been incurred. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to Net income as a performance measure. We define Adjusted Gross Profit (“Adjusted Gross Profit”) and Adjusted Gross Margin (“Adjusted Gross Margin”) as Gross profit and Gross margin, respectively, adjusted to exclude the impact of Depreciation and amortization expense and Stock-based compensation expense.

Non-GAAP financial information has limitations as an analytical tool and is presented for supplemental informational purposes only. Such information should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different from similarly-titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

The following is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, Net income:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Thryv Holdings, Inc. is a holding company that does not conduct any business operations of its own. We derive cash flows from cash transfers and other distributions from our operating subsidiary, Thryv, Inc., who in turn generates cash flow from its own operations and operations of its subsidiaries, and has cash and cash equivalents on hand, funds provided under the Term Loan and funds available under the ABL Facility. The agreements governing our debt may restrict the ability of our subsidiaries to make loans or otherwise transfer assets to us. Further, our subsidiaries are permitted under the terms of our senior credit facilities and other indebtedness to incur additional indebtedness that may restrict or prohibit the making of distributions or the making of loans by such subsidiaries to us. Our and our subsidiaries’ ability to meet our debt service requirements is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations.

We believe that expected cash flows from operations, available cash and cash equivalents, and funds available under our ABL Facility will be sufficient to meet our liquidity requirements, such as working capital requirements for our operations, business development and investment activities, and debt payment obligations, for the following 12 months. Any projections of future earnings and cash flows are subject to substantial uncertainty. Our future success and capital adequacy will depend on, among other things, our ability to achieve anticipated levels of revenues and cash flows from operations and our ability to address our annual cash obligations and reduce our outstanding debt, all of which are subject to general economic, financial, competitive, and other factors beyond our control. We continue to monitor our capital requirements to ensure our needs are in line with available capital resources.

33

In addition, our Board of Directors authorizes us to undertake share repurchases from time to time. The amount and timing of any share repurchases that we make will depend on a variety of factors, including available liquidity, cash flows, our capacity to make repurchases under our debt agreements and market conditions.

For a discussion on contingent obligations, see Note 13, Contingent Liabilities, to our consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 in this Quarterly Report.

Sources and Uses of Cash

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $26.9 million, or 83.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to changes in working capital, particularly accounts payable and accounts receivable, which were primarily impacted by the timing of annual incentive bonus payments and the overall decline in our sales. Additionally, the Company made tax payments of $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to taxes received of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This was offset by lower interest payments of $3.1 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities increased by $2.1 million, or 41.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was due to a $2.1 million increase in capital expenditures related to the development of our SaaS solutions.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities decreased by $15.5 million, or 90.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to payments on the Term Loan of $9.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to payments made on the Term Loan of $35.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in Term Loan payments was partially offset by net proceeds from the ABL Facility of $6.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to net proceeds of $17.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Debt

Term Loan

On March 1, 2021, the Company entered into the Term Loan. The proceeds of the Term Loan were used to finance the Thryv Australia Acquisition, refinance in full the Company's existing Term Loan, and pay fees and expenses related to the Thryv Australia Acquisition and related financing.

34

The Term Loan established the Term Loan Facility in an aggregate principal amount equal to $700.0 million, of which 38.4% was held by related parties who were equity holders of the Company as of March 1, 2021. The Term Loan Facility matures on March 1, 2026. Prior to June 30, 2023, borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bore interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, LIBOR or a base rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin per annum equal to (i) 8.50% (for LIBOR loans) and (ii) 7.50% (for base rate loans). Effective June 30, 2023, borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or a base rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin per annum equal to (i) 8.50% (for SOFR loans) and (ii) 7.50% (for base rate loans). The Term Loan Facility requires mandatory amortization payments equal to $17.5 million per fiscal quarter. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no portion of the Term Loan was held by related parties who were equity holders of the Company on those dates.

ABL Facility

On March 1, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to amend the June 30, 2017 ABL Facility. The ABL Amendment was entered into in order to permit the term loan refinancing, the Thryv Australia Acquisition and make certain other changes to the ABL credit agreement, including, among others:

•revise the maximum revolver amount to $175.0 million;

•reduce the interest rate per annum to (i) 3-month LIBOR plus 3.00% for LIBOR loans and (ii) base rate plus 2.00% for base rate loans;

•reduce the commitment fee on undrawn amounts under the ABL Facility to 0.375%;

•extend the maturity date of the ABL Facility to the earlier of March 1, 2026 and 91 days prior to the stated maturity

date of the Term Loan Facility;

•add the Australian subsidiaries acquired pursuant to the Thryv Australia Acquisition as borrowers and guarantors, and establish an Australian borrowing base; and

•make certain other conforming changes consistent with the Term Loan Agreement.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had borrowing base availability of $40.2 million. As a result of certain restrictions in the Company's debt agreements, as of March 31, 2024, approximately $27.9 million was available to be drawn upon under the ABL Facility.

We maintain debt levels that we consider appropriate after evaluating a number of factors, including cash requirements for ongoing operations, investment and financing plans (including acquisitions and share repurchase activities), and overall cost of capital. Per the terms of the Term Loan Facility, payments of the Term Loan balance are determined by the Company's Excess Cash Flow (as defined within the Term Loan Facility). We are in compliance with all covenants under the Term Loan and ABL Facility as of March 31, 2024. We had total recorded debt outstanding of $347.6 million (net of $8.2 million of unamortized original issue discount (“OID”) and debt issuance cost) at March 31, 2024, which was comprised of amounts outstanding under our Term Loan of $300.0 million and ABL Facility of $55.7 million.

On June 1, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement to amend its existing ABL Facility (the “ABL Seventh Amendment”). The ABL Seventh Amendment replaced the 3-month LIBOR benchmark applicable to the facility with a SOFR based rate, defined as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR. Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR plus 3.00% for SOFR loans and (ii) base rate plus 2.00% for base rate loans.

New Term Loan Agreement and ABL Credit Agreement

Term Loan Agreement

On May 1, 2024, the Company entered into a new Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”), the proceeds of which were used to refinance and pay off in full the Company’s previous term loan facility and to pay fees and expenses related to the refinancing.

The Term Loan Agreement established a senior secured term loan facility (the “New Term Loan Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $350.0 million. The New Term Loan Facility matures on May 1, 2029 and borrowings under the New Term Loan Facility will bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, SOFR or base rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin per annum equal to (i) 6.75% (for SOFR loans) and (ii) 5.75% (for base rate loans). The New Term Loan Facility requires mandatory amortization payments, paid quarterly commencing June 30, 2024, equal to (i) $52.5 million per year for the first two years following the closing date of the Term Loan Agreement, and (ii) $35.0 million per year thereafter.

35

ABL Credit Agreement

On May 1, 2024, the Company entered into a new Credit Agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”), which established a new $85.0 million asset-based revolving loan facility (the “New ABL Facility”). The New ABL Facility refinanced the Company’s previous asset-based revolving loan facility. Proceeds of the New ABL Facility may be used by the Company for ongoing general corporate purposes and working capital.

As of May 1, 2024, the Company had borrowing base availability of $55.0 million. As a result of certain restrictions in the Company's debt agreements, as of May 1, 2024, approximately $44.4 million was available to be drawn upon under the New ABL Facility.

The New ABL Facility matures on May 1, 2028 and borrowings under the New ABL Facility will bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, SOFR or base rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin per annum, depending on the average excess availability under the New ABL Facility, equal to (i) 2.50%-2.75% (for SOFR loans) and (ii) 1.50%-1.75% (for base rate loans). The fee for undrawn commitments under the New ABL Facility is equal to 0.375% per annum.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our critical accounting policies and estimates have not changed from those described in our 2023 Form 10-K, under “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.”

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

As of March 31, 2024, we had total recorded debt outstanding of $347.6 million (net of $8.2 million of unamortized OID and debt issuance costs), which was comprised of amounts outstanding under our Term Loan of $300.0 million and ABL Facility of $55.7 million. Substantially all this debt bears interest at floating rates. Changes in interest rates affect the interest expense we pay on our floating rate debt. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates would increase our interest expense by approximately $3.6 million annually, based on the debt outstanding at March 31, 2024.

Foreign Exchange Currency Risk

We have foreign currency risks related to our revenue and operating expenses denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily the Australian dollar and New Zealand dollar. Since we translate foreign currencies into U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes, currency fluctuations can have an impact on our financial results.

We have experienced and will continue to experience fluctuations in our Net income as a result of transaction gains or losses related to revaluing certain current asset and current liability balances that are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the entities in which they are recorded. We recognized immaterial amounts of foreign currency gains and losses in each of the periods presented. We have not hedged our foreign currency transactions to date. We are evaluating the costs and benefits of initiating a hedging program and may in the future hedge selected significant transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar as we expand our international operations and our risk grows.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of March 31, 2024.

36

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

Information in response to this item is provided in “Part I - Item 1. Note 13, Contingent Liabilities” and is incorporated by reference into Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors

Other than as reflected in the following updated risk factor, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023:

We use artificial intelligence in our business, and challenges with properly managing its use could result in reputational harm, competitive harm, and legal liability, and adversely affect our results of operations.

We incorporate artificial intelligence (“AI”) solutions into our platform, offerings, services and features, and these applications have become more important in our operations over time. Our competitors or other third parties may incorporate AI into their products more quickly or more successfully than us, which could impair our ability to compete effectively and adversely affect our results of operations. Additionally, if the content, analyses, or recommendations that AI applications assist in producing are, or are alleged to be, deficient, inaccurate, or biased, our business, financial condition, reputation and results of operations may be adversely affected.

The use of AI applications has resulted in, and may in the future result in, cybersecurity incidents that implicate the personal data of end users of such applications. Any such cybersecurity incidents related to our use of AI applications could adversely affect our reputation and results of operations as well as leading to litigation and regulatory risks. AI also presents emerging ethical issues, and if our use of AI becomes controversial, we may experience brand or reputational harm, competitive harm, or legal liability. The rapid evolution of AI, including potential government regulation of AI, will require significant resources to develop, test and maintain our platform, offerings, services, and features to help us implement AI ethically in order to minimize unintended, harmful impact.

Item 2.    Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

None.

Item 3.    Defaults Upon Senior Securities

None.

Item 4.    Mine Safety Disclosures

Not Applicable.

Item 5.    Other Information
