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;
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;
volatility and weakness in bank and capital markets; and
costs, obligations and liabilities incurred as a result of and in connection with being a public company.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained in this report, which speak only as of the date of this report.

The Company owns and operates Print Yellow Pages (“Print”) and digital marketing services (“Digital”), which includes Internet Yellow Pages, search engine marketing, and other digital media services, including online display advertising, and search engine optimization tools. In addition, through the Thryv® platform, the Company is a provider of SaaS small business management software 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. Additionally, on January 21, 2022, Thryv, Inc., the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired Vivial Media Holdings, Inc. (“Vivial”), a marketing and advertising company with operations in the United States.

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

Thryv U.S. Marketing Services, which includes the Company's Print and Digital solutions business in the United States;
Thryv U.S. SaaS, which includes the Company's SaaS flagship SMB end-to-end customer experienceall-in-one small business management modular software platform in the United States;

Thryv International SaaS, which primarily includes the SaaSCompany's flagship all-in-one small business management tools for SMBsmodular software platform outside of the United States.

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 and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 and 2022 have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual financial statementsThe consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 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, 2022.

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.

8


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
7


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, 2022. There have been no changes to the Company's significant accounting policies during the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023.

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 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 preliminary purchase price allocation is expected to be finalized within 12 months after the Yellow Acquisition Date.

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

Note 2      Acquisitions
(in thousands)
Current assets$2,438 
Fixed and intangible assets5,565 
Other assets457 
Current liabilities(3,533)
Other liabilities(1,159)
Goodwill5,129 
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 is allocated to the Thryv International Marketing Services segment. The goodwill recognized is not deductible for income tax purposes.

The Yellow Acquisition has contributed $9.1 million in revenue since the Yellow Acquisition Date.

Vivial Acquisition

On January 21, 2022 (the “Vivial Acquisition Date”), Thryv, Inc., the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired Vivial, for $22.8 million in cash (net of $8.5 million of cash acquired) (the “Vivial Acquisition”). The assets acquired as part of these transactions consisted primarily of $27.7 million in current assets and $9.8 million in fixed and intangible assets, consisting primarily of customer relationships and technology assets, $14.5 million in deferred tax assets, along with a $10.9 million bargain purchase gain. The Vivial Acquisition resulted in a bargain purchase gain in part because the seller was motivated to divest its marketing services business that was in secular decline. The Company also assumed liabilities of $20.4 million, consisting primarily of accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

The Company accounted for the Vivial Acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations (ASC 805).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 Vivial’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

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

(in thousands)
Current assets$27,705 
Fixed and intangible assets9,759 
Deferred tax assets14,530 
Other assets2,103 
Current liabilities(18,775)
Other liabilities(1,646)
Bargain purchase gain(10,883)
Fair value allocated to net assets acquired, net of bargain purchase gain$22,793 

The deferred tax asset primarily relates to excess carryover tax basis over book basis in intangibles as a result of the assessment of the fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed using the acquisition method of accounting.

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 customers 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 customers are 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 consist of advance payments and revenue deferrals resulting from the allocation of the consideration to performance obligations. For the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023, the Company recognized Revenue of $29.7$1.6 million and $40.6 million, respectively,that was recorded in Contract liabilities as of December 31, 2022. For the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2022, the Company recognized Revenue of $12.9 million and $38.8 million, respectively, that was recorded in Contract liabilities as of December 31, 2021.


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.

1011


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 iswas 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 . Due to an increase in“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 share price as of March 31, 2023,from the sellers back to the Company, which were returned to treasury and reduced the number of outstanding shares expectedof the Company’s common stock. Furthermore, the sellers would be entitled to be returned to seller is 1,181,713, which representsretain 1,190,761 currently outstanding shares of the number of shares required to satisfyCompany’s common stock that previously secured the uncertainsellers' tax position less $8.0 million.indemnity obligations under the YP Acquisition agreement.

As of March 31,September 30, 2023, andthe Company no longer recorded a Level 1 indemnification asset because it was settled on June 22, 2023. As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Company's Level 1 indemnification asset was $27.3$26.5 million. A loss of $10.7 million and $26.5 million, respectively. A gain of $0.8 million from the change in fair value of the Company’s Level 1 indemnification asset during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023was recorded in General and administrative expense on the Company's Consolidated Statementsconsolidated statements of Operationsoperations and Comprehensive Income (Loss)comprehensive income (loss). The $15.8 million Indemnity Amount, which is 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 September 30, 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.

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.

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 and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023, the Company recognized a settlement gain of less than $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, and as a result of an interim actuarial valuation due to the settlement of one of the Company's pension plans, the Company recognized a remeasurement gain of less $0.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized a settlement loss of $0.1 million and a settlement gain of $0.3 million, respectively, and as a result of an interim actuarial valuation due to the settlement of one of the Company's pension plans, the Company recognized a remeasurement loss of $3.5 million and a remeasurement gain of $5.2 million, respectively.

As of March 31,September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $21.8$16.7 million and $21.4 million, respectively, excluding interest and penalties, that if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. As of March 31,September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $12.5$8.4 million and $11.7 million, respectively, recorded for interest on the condensedCompany'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 $20.7$15.6 million within the next 12 months, affecting the Company’s ETR if realized. See Note 13, Contingent Liabilities.


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 (loss), 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
19



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. The appeals conference for YP occurred on May 9, 2022. The Company is working through ongoing settlement negotiations with the Appeals Officer. In advance of the IRS Appeals conference, the parties 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 was unsuccessful in its attempt to negotiate a settlement with IRS Administrative Appeals, and the IRS issued a 90-day notice to the Company. The Company filed a petition in the U.S. Tax Court on March 30, 2021 to challenge the IRS denial.

As of March 31,September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company has reserved approximately $34.825.5 million and $34.0 million, respectively, in connection with the Section 199 disallowance and $0.8less than $0.1 million related to the research and development tax credit disallowance. PursuantSee 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 YP Acquisition agreement,IRC Section 199 tax case described in Note 15 Contingent Liabilities of our Form 10-K for year ended December 31, 2022. Once finalized, the Draft Settlement will result in a decrease in the unrecognized tax benefit recorded for this tax position. During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the Company is entitledrecorded a measurement adjustment to (i) a dollar-for-dollar indemnificationthe uncertain tax position liability to account for the researchnew information received from the Draft Settlement. The Company is in continued discussion with the IRS regarding the finalization of this case and developmentfinal tax liability, and (ii) a dollar-for-dollar indemnification for impact that will result. As of September 30, 2023,
21



the Section 199-tax liability afterfinal settlement has not been issued by the IRS. Accordingly, the Company paysdoes not consider the first $8.0 million in liability. The indemnification asset, however, is subject to a provision in the YP Acquisition agreement that limits the seller’s liability. The balance of the indemnification asset is $27.3 million and $26.5 million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.matter effectively settled.

Our Thryv U.S. SaaS segment generated $58.1$64.7 million and $47.3$55.4 million of consolidated revenue for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $182.9 million and $153.9 million of consolidated revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Our expertise in delivering solutions for our client base is rooted in our deep history of serving SMBs. In 2023, SMB demand for integrated technology solutions continues to grow as SMBs adapt their business and service model to facilitate remote working and virtual interactions.

The expanding global scope of our business and the heightened volatility of global markets, driven by factors, such as COVID-19and inflation, expose us to the risk of rising interest rates, increased operating costs and fluctuations in foreign
23


currency markets. Recently the United States Dollar has strengthened significantly against certain foreign currencies in the markets in which we operate, particularly against the Australian Dollar. We also expect further interest rate changes in the future. To date, these factors have not had a material impact on our operating performance, financial performance, or liquidity. However, furtherFurther changes in global economic conditions may adversely impact our revenue, profit margins, cash flow and liquidity. See “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for a description of interest rate and foreign exchange currency risks.

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 U.S. Marketing Services and Thryv International 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 invest in the growth of our U.S. and international SaaS segments. We have selectively utilized a portion of the cash generated from our Thryv U.S. Marketing Services and Thryv International Marketing Services segments to support initiatives in our evolving U.S. and international SaaS segments, which has represented an increasing percentage of consolidated revenue since launch. 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 the United States, Australian, New Zealand, and Canadian SMB markets and plan to leverage strategic acquisitions or initiatives to expand our client base domestically and enter new markets internationally, such as our recent acquisition in New Zealand. Identifying proper targets and executing strategic acquisitions may take substantial time and capital. On March 1, 2021, we completed the acquisition of Thryv Australia, Australia’s leading provider of marketing solutions serving SMBs. In July 2022, we began operations in Canada through our own sales force and a re-seller agreement. On April 3, 2023, we completed the acquisition of Yellow Holdings Limited (“Yellow”), a New Zealand marketing services company.Yellow. We believe that strategic acquisitions of marketing services companies globally will expand our client base and provide additional opportunities to offer our SaaS solutions.
25


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 and 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 and delivery of the publication cycles.
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
24


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.

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.

Monthly ARPU for Marketing Services decreased by $17,$20, or 9%11%, for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2022, and decreased by $20, or 11%, for the .nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. 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 increaseddecreased by $27,$12, or 8%3%, during the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022.September 30, 2022, and increased by $10, or 3%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 Thcompared to the enine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in SaaS ARPU during the three months ended September 30, 2023 resulted from offering our SaaS solutions, primarily Marketing Center, to our Marketing Services clients. These solutions are priced lower than some of our Thryv Add-On products. The increase in ARPU for these periods during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was driven by our strategic shift to selling to higher spend clients and, at the same time, discontinuing our sale of the lower-priced tiers of our Thryv platform. In addition, the sale of add-on features to our Thryv platform such as Thryv Leads and Thryv Pay contributed to Monthly SaaS ARPU growth. This was partially offset by offering our SaaS solutions to our Marketing Services clients.
Monthly Active Users - SaaS
We define a monthly active user for SaaS offerings as a unique user who logs into our SaaS solutions at least once during the calendar month. One client can have multiple unique users. Individuals who register for, and use, multiple accounts across computer and mobile devices may be counted more than once, and as a result, may overstate the number of unique users who actively use our Thryv platform within a month. Additionally, some of our original SaaS clients exclusively use the website features of their Thryv platform which does not require a login and those users are not included in our active users count. For each reporting period, active users from the last month in the period are reported. We believe that monthly active users best reflects our ability to engage, retain, and monetize our users, and thereby drive increases in revenue. We view monthly active users as a key measure of user engagement for our Thryv platform.

Monthly active users increased by nineeight thousand, or 25%22%, during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 compared to the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2022. The number of monthly active users increased period-over-period as we continued efforts to increase engagement among our SaaS clients, such as enhancing the initial sales process, the client onboarding experience, and lifecycle management. The increase was also driven by our focus on obtaining higher retention, higher spend clients as these clients are more engaged with our platform. Additionally, we experienced an increase in engagement from existing clients, as SMBs increased virtual interactions with their customers in lieu of in-person interactions.

Total Revenue decreased by $96.8 million, or 34.5%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in total Revenue was driven by a decrease in Thryv U.S. Marketing Services Revenue of $104.3 million and a decrease in Thryv International Marketing Services Revenue of $3.3 million, partially offset by an increase in Thryv U.S. SaaS Revenue of $9.3 million and an increase in Thryv International SaaS Revenue of $1.4 million.
Thryv U.S. Revenue
Marketing Services Revenue
Thryv U.S. Marketing Services revenue decreased by $104.3 million, or 52.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022.
Print revenue decreased by $75.2 million, or 80.4%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease in Print revenue was primarily driven by the impact of publication timing differences, as a result of our Print agreements having greater than 12 month terms, and the continued secular decline in 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 15 to 18 months for directories published during the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to 18 months during the three months ended September 30, 2023. As a result of recognizing revenue upon delivery, we typically record revenue for each published directory only once every 15 to 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 greater contract value for individual published directories during the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased Print revenue per published directory because the revenue was based on an 18 month contract value for publications with new terms. This increase in per published directory revenue partially offset the secular decline in industry demand for Print services, resulting in an overall 29% decline in revenue for the quarter when comparing on a publication-by-publication basis.
Digital revenue decreased by $29.1 million, or 28.1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. 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.

SaaS Revenue
Thryv U.S. SaaS revenue increased by $9.3 million, or 16.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was driven by increased demand for our Thryv SaaS product 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.
Thryv International Revenue
Marketing Services Revenue
Thryv International Marketing Services revenue decreased by $3.3 million, or 12.1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in revenue was driven by lower Print and digital revenue primarily resulting from the secular decline in industry demand for Print services in Australia and negative impact from changes in foreign currency rates. This decrease was partially offset by Print and digital revenue recognized as a result of the Yellow Acquisition.
SaaS Revenue
Thryv International SaaS revenue increased $1.4 million, or 110.1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was driven by increased demand for our Thryv platform as we continue to increase sales to SMBs in Australia.

Cost of Services

Cost of services decreased by $24.8 million, or 23.6%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily driven by the corresponding decline in revenue and strategic cost saving initiatives. Specifically, we reduced printing, distribution and digital fulfillment support costs by $21.9 million and a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of $2.9 million due to the accelerated amortization method used by the Company.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased by $72.0 million, or 41.0%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. Our gross margin decreased by 620 basis points to 56.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to 62.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease 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.

Operating Expenses

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expense decreased by $15.1 million, or 16.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in employee-related costs of $6.1 million due to strategic cost-saving initiatives, a decrease in sales commissions of $4.8 million, due to new sales commissions plans and revised targets, a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of $3.0 million due to the accelerated amortization method used by the Company, and a decrease in sales promotion expenses of $2.1 million, primarily driven by improvements in the client acquisition funnel.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expense decreased by $6.4 million, or 11.7%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in employee related costs of $5.0 million, driven primarily by cost saving initiatives, and a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of $1.7 million, due to the accelerated amortization method used by the Company.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased by $0.6 million, or 3.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, driven primarily by the impact of higher interest rates during the quarter, partially offset by lower outstanding debt balances resulting from payments made on our Term Loan.

Other Components of Net Periodic Pension (Cost) Benefit

Other components of net periodic pension cost decreased by $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. This decrease was primarily due to a remeasurement gain of $0.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to a loss of $3.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2022. Partially offset by an increase in interest cost of $1.5 million, due to rising interest rates, during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) decreased by $7.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. This decrease was primarily due to a $3.2 million bargain purchase gain recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2022 as a result of the Vivial Acquisition. Additionally, the Company recorded a $1.0 million foreign currency-related loss during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to a $2.8 million foreign currency-related gain during three months ended September 30, 2022.

Income Tax Expense
The Company's effective tax rate (“ETR”) was 27.5% and 32.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, 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, and the discrete impact of uncertain tax positions and the settlement of the indemnification asset further discussed in Note 13, Contingent Liabilities, and return to provision adjustments.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $58.1 million, or 88.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by the secular decline in both our Thryv U.S. and International Marketing Services segments. The decrease was partially offset by the growth in our Thryv U.S. and International SaaS segments. 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.

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.

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 (loss) income plus Income tax expense, Interest 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 (benefit), Non-cash (gain) loss
36



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.

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.

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.

The increasedecrease was primarily due to changes in working capital, particularly accounts payable and accounts receivable, which waswere impacted by the timing of payments includingand lower tax payments of $16.4$46.1 million. This was partially offset by the overall decline in our sales and higher interest payments of $3.0$1.6 million compared to the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2022.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $20.9$10.1 million, or 80.2%24.0%, for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 compared to the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the $22.0$22.8 million of net cash paid in connection with the Vivial Acquisition on January 21, 2022.2022 compared to $8.9 million net cash paid in connection with the Yellow Acquisition on April 3, 2023. This decrease was partially offset by a $3.6 million increase in capital expenditures.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash provided byused in financing activities decreasedincreased by $23.4$14.4 million, or 367.1%25.0%, for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2023 compared to the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2022. The decreaseincrease was primarily due to payments made on the Term Loan of $35.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to payments made on the Term Loan of $17.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022. In addition, the decrease was due to a decrease in net proceeds from the ABL Facility of $5.4$16.1 million, as a result of lower proceeds of $29.5$49.5 million and lower payments of $24.1$33.4 million on the ABL Facility during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2022. The increase was also due to payments made on the Term Loan of $95.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to payments made on the Term Loan of $81.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. These increases were partially offset by $15.9 million of cash received as a result of the exercise of warrants during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Debt

Term Loan

On March 1, 2021, the Company entered into a Term Loan credit agreement (the “Term Loan”). The proceeds of the Term Loan were used to finance the acquisition of Sensis Holding Limited (the “Thryv Australia Acquisition”), refinance in full the Company's existing term loan facility (the “Senior Term Loan”), and pay fees and expenses related to the Thryv Australia Acquisition and related financing.

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 and2026. Prior to June 30, 2023, borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bearbore 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
3440



payments equal to $17.5 million per fiscal quarter. As of March 31,September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no portion of the Term Loan was held by related parties who were equity holders of the Company on those dates.

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 benchmark applicable to the loan with a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“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).
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 loanSenior 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.

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,September 30, 2023. We had total recorded debt outstanding of $453.7$381.3 million (net of $12.9$10.5 million of unamortized original issue discount (OID) and debt issuance cost) at March 31,September 30, 2023, which was comprised of amounts outstanding under our Term Loan of $394.4$334.4 million and ABL Facility of $72.2$57.4 million.
As of March 31,September 30, 2023, we had borrowing capacity of $56.636.7 million under the ABL Facility.
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.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

As of March 31,September 30, 2023, we had total debt outstanding of $453.7$381.3 million (net of $12.9$10.5 million of unamortized OID and debt issuance costs), which was comprised of amounts outstanding under our Term Loan of $394.4$334.4 million and ABL Facility of $72.2$57.4 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 $4.7$3.9 million annually, based on the debt outstanding at March 31,September 30, 2023.

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.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 Netnet 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.

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. The OECD continues to release additional guidancesubsequent Quarterly Reports on these rules and suggests enactment to take effect in 2023 and 2024. 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.Form 10-Q.
