To Our Stockholders:
You are cordially invited to attend the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Nextdoor Holdings, Inc. (the “Annual Meeting”), which will be held virtually at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/NXDR2026 on Tuesday, June 9, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time / 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time. We believe that a virtual stockholder meeting provides greater access to those who may want to attend and therefore we have chosen this over an in-person meeting. This approach also lowers costs and enables participation from our global community. The matters expected to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting are described in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and Proxy Statement. The Annual Meeting materials include the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders, Proxy Statement, and Annual Report to stockholders, each of which has been furnished to you over the Internet or, if you have requested a paper copy of the materials, by mail.
Your vote is important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please cast your vote as soon as possible by Internet, telephone or, if you received a paper copy of the meeting materials by mail, by completing and returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-prepaid envelope to ensure that your shares will be represented. Your vote by written proxy will ensure your representation at the Annual Meeting regardless of whether or not you attend virtually. Returning the proxy does not affect your right to attend the Annual Meeting or to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting.
Sincerely,
Nirav Tolia
Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairperson of the Board of Directors

Special Note Regarding
Forward-Looking Statements
This proxy statement (“Proxy Statement”) includes forward-looking statements, which are statements other than statements of historical facts and statements in the present tense. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our business, our business strategy and plans, and our objectives and future operations. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “aim,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “believe,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “could,” “intend,” “target,” “project,” “contemplate,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “seeks,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words.
Forward-looking statements are based upon various estimates and assumptions, as well as information known to us as of the date hereof and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially due to a variety of factors. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Annual Report”) for the year ended December 31, 2025, and our other U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) filings, which are available on the Investor Relations page of our website at https://investors.nextdoor.com and on the SEC website at www.sec.gov.
All forward-looking statements contained herein are based on information available to us as of the date hereof and you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, performance, or achievements. We undertake no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this Proxy Statement or to conform these statements to actual results or revised expectations, except as required by law. Undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements.
