Allegations
The filed complaint alleges that Nextdoor Holdings, Inc. f/k/a Khosla Ventures Acquisition Co. II made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (a) Nextdoor’s financial results prior to the November 2021 merger with Khosla Ventures Acquisition Co. II, had been temporarily inflated by the ephemeral effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which had pulled forward demand for Nextdoor’s platform and cannibalized future advertising revenue growth; (b) rather than being sustained, such growth trends had already begun reversing at the start of the class period; (c) Nextdoor’s total addressable market was materially smaller than the 312 million households represented to investors; (d) by the start of the class period, Nextdoor’s most important market – the U.S. market – was already substantially saturated, impairing the Company’s ability to monetize users and increase its average revenue per weekly active user, or U.S. weekly active user metrics; (e) as a result of (a)-(d) above, Nextdoor’s revenue guidance for fiscal year 2022 had no reasonable basis in fact and the Company was tracking tens of millions of dollars below the revenue trajectory provided to investors.
