Kaltura Announces Financial Results for Second Quarter 2025
NEW YORK, Aug. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kaltura, Inc. (Nasdaq: KLTR, 'Kaltura' or the 'Company'), the Video Experience Cloud, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025, as well as outlook for the third quarter and full year 2025. 'We exceeded the upper end of all our second quarter guidance ranges, delivering record non-GAAP net profit, an adjusted EBITDA profit that matched last quarter's record high, and strongest second-quarter operating cash flow since 2020,' said Ron Yekutiel, Co-founder, Chairman, President, and CEO of Kaltura. 'New bookings increased sequentially and included initial sales of our AI products. We enter the second half of the year with a robust pipeline and continue to project growth in new bookings, supported by deeper customer consolidation around our platform and the growing adoption of our AI-powered offerings.' Yekutiel added, 'We've initiated a reorganization plan that includes, among other measures, a workforce reduction of approximately 10%, aimed at realigning our operations to boost efficiency and productivity. These changes are part of a longer-term strategy, already embedded in our plans, to double adjusted EBITDA in 2026 and return to being a 'Rule of 30' company by or before 2028 - through a combination of double-digit revenue growth and improved adjusted EBITDA margin.' Second Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights: Revenue for the second quarter of 2025 was $44.5 million, an increase of 1% compared to $44.0 million for the second quarter of 2024. Subscription Revenue for the second quarter of 2025 was $42.4 million, an increase of 3% compared to $41.0 million for the second quarter of 2024. Annualized Recurring Revenue (ARR) for the second quarter of 2025 was $170.4 million, an increase of 3% compared to $165.2 million for the second quarter of 2024. GAAP Gross profit for the second quarter of 2025 was $31.2 million, representing a gross margin of 70% compared to a GAAP gross profit of $28.7 million and gross margin of 65% for the second quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP Gross profit for the second quarter of 2025 was $31.3 million, representing a non-GAAP gross margin of 70%, compared to a non-GAAP gross profit of $29.0 million and non-GAAP gross margin of 66% for the second quarter of 2024. GAAP Operating loss was $2.8 million for the second quarter of 2025, compared to an operating loss of $8.6 million for the second quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP Operating profit was $3.0 million for the second quarter of 2025, compared to a non-GAAP operating profit of $0.5 million for the second quarter of 2024. GAAP Net loss was $7.8 million or $0.05 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2025, compared to a GAAP net loss of $10.0 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP Net profit was $2.5 million or $0.01 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2025, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $2.1 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA was $4.1 million for the second quarter of 2025, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2024. Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities was $2.7 million for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $1.6 million Net Cash Used in Operating Activities for the second quarter of 2024. Second Quarter 2025 Business Highlights: Business Momentum: Closed 21 new six-figure deals across a diverse range of industries including technology, banking, financial services, manufacturing, pharma, education, and media & telecom. Signed our first three AI-driven deals featuring Content Lab and Genie, marking an early milestone in our AI monetization journey. Our AI sales pipeline now includes over 100 qualified opportunities. Retention: Achieved a third consecutive quarter of year-over-year improvement in Net Dollar Retention (NDR), and a fourth consecutive quarter above 100%, signaling continued customer expansion and satisfaction. Industry Recognition and Awards: Recognized as a Leader by IDC in their inaugural MarketScape for AI-Enabled Enterprise Video Platforms. Class Genie was awarded 'e-Learning Innovation of the Year' at the 7th Annual EdTech Breakthrough Awards. Our Virtual Events & Webinars platform earned five Gold Awards at the 2025 Eventex Awards—including Best Event AI Technology, Best New Event Technology, Best Audience Engagement Technology, Best Event Analytics, and Best Virtual Event Platform. Customer Engagement: Hosted 'Kaltura Connect on the Road 2025' events in New York, San Francisco, and London, alongside our 'Kaltura Connect in Education' events series across Europe and the U.S. Additional education-focused events are planned for later this year in Europe and the Asia-Pacific region - details available on our website. Organizational Realignment to Drive Efficiency and Scale: Initiated a company-wide reorganization to enhance productivity, streamline operations, and capture synergies. As part of this effort, all engineering resources have been unified under a single R&D organization, and Customer Experience and Sales have been consolidated into one go-to-market team—both of which now support our M&T and EE&T business segments. Headcount Adjustment and Expense Optimization: The reorganization includes a reduction of approximately 10% of our workforce. We expect to realize cost savings starting later in the third quarter. The reorganization will primarily impact engineering, professional services, and administrative spend. Our sales and marketing budget remains intact, with expectations for gradual growth to support pipeline momentum. Ongoing investments in automation and AI-driven efficiency are already delivering measurable benefits and are expected to continue contributing to cost savings and scalability across the organization. Financial Impact of Reorganization: Total savings from workforce reductions associated with the reorganization expected for the balance of 2025 is approximately $2.6 million, which translates to $8.5 million on an annualized basis, strengthening our financial position moving forward. The total one-time charge related to the reorganization is expected to be approximately $0.7 million in the third quarter of 2025. Financial Outlook: For the third quarter of 2025, Kaltura expects: Subscription Revenue to be between $40.8 million and $41.6 million. Total Revenue to be between $42.8 million and $43.6 million. Adjusted EBITDA to be between $1.5 million to $2.5 million. For the full year ending December 31, 2025, Kaltura expects: Subscription Revenue to be between $170.9 million and $172.9 million. Total Revenue to be between $180.4 million and $182.4 million. Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $14.5 million to $16.0 million. The guidance provided above contains forward-looking statements and actual results may differ materially. Refer to 'Forward-Looking Statements' below for information on the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Kaltura has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted Adjusted EBITDA to forecasted GAAP net loss within this press release because the Company is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence. The reconciliation for Adjusted EBITDA includes but is not limited to the following items: stock-based compensation expenses, depreciation, amortization, financial expenses (income), net, provision for income tax, and other non-recurring operating expenses. These items, which could materially affect the computation of forward-looking GAAP net loss, are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, some of which are outside of the Company's control. The guidance above is based on the Company's current expectations relating to the macro-economic climate trends. Additional information on Kaltura's reported results, including a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP measures, is included in the financial tables below.

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the current volatile economic climate and its direct and indirect impact on our business and operations; political, economic, and military conditions in Israel and other geographies; our ability to retain our customers and meet demand; our ability to achieve and maintain profitability; the evolution of the markets for our offerings; our ability to keep pace with technological and competitive developments; risks associated with our use of certain artificial intelligence and machine learning models; our ability to maintain the interoperability of our offerings across devices, operating systems and third-party applications; risks associated with our Application Programming Interfaces, other components in our offerings and other intellectual property; our ability to compete successfully against current and future competitors; our ability to increase customer revenue; risks related to our approach to revenue recognition; our potential exposure to cybersecurity threats; our compliance with data privacy and data protection laws; our ability to meet our contractual commitments; our reliance on third parties; our ability to retain our key personnel; risks related to revenue mix and customer base; risks related to our international operations; risks related to potential acquisitions; our ability to generate or raise additional capital; and the other risks under the caption 'Risk Factors' in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ('SEC'), as such factors may be updated from time to time in our other filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC's website at and the Investor Relations page of our website at Non-GAAP Financial Measures Kaltura has provided in this press release and the accompanying tables measures of financial information that have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. ("GAAP"), including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin (calculated as a percentage of revenue), non-GAAP research and development expenses, non-GAAP sales and marketing expenses, non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP operating profit (loss), non-GAAP operating margin (calculated as a percentage of revenue), non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) per share and Adjusted EBITDA. Beginning with the second quarter, non-GAAP Net Income was adjusted for gains or losses from foreign currency translation adjustments, with the recent fluctuation of the U.S dollar, specifically against the Israeli Shekel and less certainty in the global economic environment, Kaltura believes that this change will provide a better reflection of its overall operating performance on an adjusted net income (loss) basis. Kaltura defines these non-GAAP financial measures as the respective corresponding GAAP measure, adjusted for, as applicable: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) the amortization of acquired intangibles; and (3) strategic initiatives costs, (4) war-related costs, and (5) foreign currency translation adjustments loss (gain). Kaltura defines EBITDA as net profit (loss) before financial expenses (income), net, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA (as defined above), adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating performance, such as non-cash stock-based compensation expenses and certain non-recurring operating expenses. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Kaltura's financial condition and results of operations. These non-GAAP metrics are a supplemental measure of our performance, are not defined by or presented in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net profit (loss) or any other performance measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures are presented because we believe that they provide useful supplemental information to investors and analysts regarding our operating performance and are frequently used by these parties in evaluating companies in our industry. By presenting these non-GAAP financial measures, we provide a basis for comparison of our business operations between periods by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. We believe that investors' understanding of our performance is enhanced by including these non-GAAP financial measures as a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations. Additionally, our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures of our performance because they assist us in comparing the operating performance of our business on a consistent basis between periods, as described above. Although we use the non-GAAP financial measures described above, such measures have significant limitations as analytical tools and only supplement but do not replace, our financial statements in accordance with GAAP. See the tables below regarding reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures Key Financial and Operating Metrics Annualized Recurring Revenue. We use Annualized Recurring Revenue ('ARR') as a measure of our revenue trend and an indicator of our future revenue opportunity from existing recurring customer contracts. We calculate ARR by annualizing our recurring revenue for the most recently completed fiscal quarter. Recurring revenues are generated from SaaS and PaaS subscriptions, as well as term licenses for software installed on the customer's premises ('On-Prem'). For the SaaS and PaaS components, we calculate ARR by annualizing the actual recurring revenue recognized for the latest fiscal quarter. For the On-Prem components for which revenue recognition is not ratable across the license term, we calculate ARR for each contract by dividing the total contract value (excluding professional services) as of the last day of the specified period by the number of days in the contract term and then multiplying by 365. Recurring revenue excludes revenue from one-time professional services and setup fees. ARR is not adjusted for the impact of any known or projected future customer cancellations, upgrades or downgrades or price increases or decreases. The amount of actual revenue that we recognize over any 12-month period is likely to differ from ARR at the beginning of that period, sometimes significantly. This may occur due to new bookings, cancellations, upgrades or downgrades, pending renewals, professional services revenue, foreign exchange rate fluctuations and acquisitions or divestitures. ARR should be viewed independently of revenue as it is an operating metric and is not intended to be a replacement or forecast of revenue. Our calculation of ARR may differ from similarly titled metrics presented by other companies. Net Dollar Retention Rate. Our Net Dollar Retention Rate, which we use to measure our success in retaining and growing recurring revenue from our existing customers, compares our recognized recurring revenue from a set of customers across comparable periods. We calculate our Net Dollar Retention Rate for a given period as the recognized recurring revenue from the latest reported fiscal quarter from the set of customers whose revenue existed in the reported fiscal quarter from the prior year (the numerator), divided by recognized recurring revenue from such customers for the same fiscal quarter in the prior year (denominator). For annual periods, we report Net Dollar Retention Rate as the arithmetic average of the Net Dollar Retention Rate for all fiscal quarters included in the period. We consider subdivisions of the same legal entity (for example, divisions of a parent company or separate campuses that are part of the same state university system) ,as well as Value-add Resellers ('VARs') (meaning resellers that directly manage the relationship with the customer) and the customers they manage, to be a single customer for purposes of calculating our Net Dollar Retention Rate. Our calculation of Net Dollar Retention Rate for any fiscal period includes the positive recognized recurring revenue impacts of selling new services to existing customers and the negative recognized recurring revenue impacts of contraction and attrition among this set of customers. Our Net Dollar Retention Rate may fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including the growing level of our revenue base, the level of penetration within our customer base, expansion of products and features, and our ability to retain our customers. Our calculation of Net Dollar Retention Rate may differ from similarly titled metrics presented by other companies. Remaining Performance Obligations. Remaining Performance Obligations represents the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been delivered, including both subscription and professional services revenues. Remaining Performance Obligations consists of both deferred revenue and contracted non-cancelable amounts that will be invoiced and recognized in future periods. We expect to recognize 61% of our Remaining Performance Obligations as revenue over the next 12 months, and the remainder over a period of four years, in each case, in accordance with our revenue recognition policy; however, we cannot guarantee that any portion of our Remaining Performance Obligations will be recognized as revenue within the timeframe we expect or at all.

Enterprise AI Isn't A Feature—It's A New UX Paradigm
Gopikrishnan Anilkumar is a Principal Product Manager at Amazon, where he leads product management for multiple AI products and services. The rise of generative AI is creating a powerful shift in enterprise technology. From customer support to analytics, organizations are integrating AI into critical workflows, expecting it to enhance productivity, automate repetitive work and drive strategic decision making. But although the technology has matured rapidly, the user experience (UX) layer (i.e., how users interact with and trust these systems) often lags behind. Too many AI-powered enterprise tools fall short not because of model limitations but because they misunderstand how users work, decide and trust. Generative AI isn't just a back-end engine. It represents an entirely new kind of interaction. Designing for it requires rethinking user experience from the ground up. AI Isn't A Button—It's A Behavioral Shift In most AI implementations, product teams treat intelligence as a bolt-on feature, like a button that triggers a model or a prompt box that feeds into a text generation service. But generative AI introduces uncertainty, autonomy and fluidity. It doesn't just return results, as it even participates in decisions. This requires a shift from static feature design to behavioral design. AI systems should be context-aware, act only when useful and adapt to user preferences. In regulated environments, even more care is needed. Each action must be auditable, suggestions explainable and the AI must know when to step back. Prompting Isn't A Scalable UX Pattern Many enterprise tools built around large language models (LLMs) assume users will communicate with AI via typed prompts. Although this may work for developers and early adopters, it's rarely intuitive for business users. Professionals in healthcare, finance or operations don't have time to construct ideal prompts. They want accurate outcomes based on minimal input. Effective AI UX provides structured interactions: smart defaults, fill-in-the-blank suggestions, clickable intents and domain-specific controls. These reduce the friction between user need and AI action. Trust Is A UX Outcome, Not Just A Technical Goal Trust in AI is often discussed as a matter of model quality or data governance. Although these are critical, trust is also a function of how the system presents itself to the user. A confident answer without evidence can erode trust. A transparent answer with sources, confidence scores and options for review builds it. Good UX makes uncertainty visible. It gives users the tools to verify claims, retrace logic and even reject an answer when appropriate. In this way, trust becomes an experience outcome, not just a back-end aspiration. For example, an AI assistant may show which documents were retrieved from a knowledge base to generate an answer, cite time stamps and internal sources, indicate confidence levels with visual cues, and offer a fallback when the model is unsure or the input is ambiguous. These elements transform AI from a black box to a trustworthy product. Enterprise Context Demands Systems Thinking Enterprise workflows are complex. They span systems, roles, data policies and compliance boundaries. A generative model may provide a correct answer in isolation but fail when deployed in a broader system that requires traceability, authorization or multistep context. To realize AI's full promise, product leaders must move away from "feature thinking" (the idea that AI is just another button or tab). Instead, they must embrace "system thinking"—designing AI as an intelligent, adaptive layer that spans data, logic, UX and decision making. This means designing: • With human-in-the-loop interactions, not blind automation • For progressive disclosure, not information overload • With fail-safes and fallbacks, not brittle dependencies • For explainability and auditability, not just speed Conclusion The next generation of successful enterprise AI tools won't be defined by how advanced their models are. They'll be defined by how well they integrate into human workflows with clarity, control and credibility. As product and technology leaders, our responsibility isn't just to deploy powerful models but to ensure they are usable, understandable and trustworthy. That starts with UX. Generative AI isn't a feature to layer on top of legacy interfaces. It's a paradigm shift in how enterprise software behaves. The sooner we embrace this, the faster we'll build systems that truly empower the people who use them.
