Every company "should" have the data backed up.
Even if the data was backed up it can be lost. Normally we only keep backups for a few months back.

If the data was backed up and then overwritten by a newer backup before you realize you have lost some data in the current data. You don't have a backup that goes back far enough to recover the lost data.
This would be an issue that you surely would not want to admit in public.
