Basis of Preparation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of Planet Labs PBC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s fiscal year end is January 31.

Liquidity

Since its inception, the Company has incurred net losses. We recorded positive net cash flows from operations for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026. The Company expects to incur additional operating losses as it seeks to grow its business. As of January 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company had$229.4 million and$118.0 million of cash and cash equivalents, respectively. Additionally, as of January 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company had short-term investments of$410.6 million and$104.0 million, respectively, which are highly liquid in nature and available for current operations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The significant estimates and assumptions that affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the useful lives of property and equipment, capitalized internal-use software and intangible assets, allowances for credit losses for available-for-sale debt securities and accounts receivable, estimates related to revenue recognition, including the assessment of performance obligations within a contract, the determination of standalone selling price (“SSP”) for each performance obligation, assumptions used to measure the fair value of noncash consideration, and estimates used in the cost-to-cost measure of progress. Significant estimates and assumptions also include assumptions used to measure the fair value of private placement warrants, the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed from business combinations, the fair value of contingent consideration for business combinations, the impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill, the recognition, measurement and valuation of current and deferred income taxes and uncertain tax positions, provision for excess or obsolete inventory, and contingencies.

These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management regularly evaluates its estimates and assumptions using historical experience and other factors; however, due to the inherent uncertainties in making estimates, actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements.

Due to current geopolitical events, including the war in Ukraine, the conflicts in the Middle East, and military operations in Venezuela, there is ongoing uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. The Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to its estimates or assumptions or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities. These estimates and assumptions may change in the future, as new events occur and additional information is obtained.

Short-term investments

The Company’s short-term investments are designated as available-for-sale and are recorded at fair value each reporting period, which is based on quoted market prices for such securities, if available, or is estimated on the basis of quoted market prices of financial instruments with similar characteristics. Investments with original maturities greater than 90 days and remaining maturities of less than one year are classified within short-term investments on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. In addition, investments with maturities beyond one year at the time of purchase that are highly liquid in nature and represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations are classified as short-term investments.

Unrealized gains and losses of available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and are reported as a component of Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, until the security is sold, the security has matured, or the Company determines that the fair value of the security has declined below its adjusted cost basis and the decline is not due to a credit loss. Realized gains and losses on short-term investments are calculated based on the specific identification method and are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to other income (expense), net on the consolidated statements of operations.

Short-term investments are evaluated for allowances and impairment quarterly. The Company considers various factors in determining whether an allowance for expected credit losses or an impairment charge should be recognized, such as the credit quality of the issuer, the duration, severity of and the reason for the decline in value, the potential recovery period, and the Company’s intent to sell. No allowances or impairment charges were recognized during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024.

Accounts Receivable and Allowances

Accounts receivable include amounts billed and billable to customers for services or products provided as of the end of the applicable period and do not bear interest. Accounts receivable are recorded and carried at the original invoiced amount less an allowance for any potential uncollectible amounts. The allowance is assessed by applying a historical loss-rate methodology in accordance with ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments— Credit Losses, adjustedas necessary based on the Company's review of accounts receivable, specifically reviewing factors including the age of the balances, customer payment history, creditworthiness, and other factors. The Company also considers market conditions and current and expected future economic conditions to inform adjustments to historical loss data. Expected credit losses are recorded as general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an “exit price”), in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

The Company measures fair value based on a three-level hierarchy of inputs, maximizing the use of observable inputs, where available, and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s level within the three-level hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three-level hierarchy of inputs is as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date;

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. These inputs are based on the Company’s own assumptions about current market conditions and require significant management judgment or estimation.

The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, restricted cash and cash equivalents, accrued liabilities, contingent consideration for acquisitions, and warrant liabilities.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. By their nature, all such financial instruments involve risks, including the credit risk of nonperformance by counterparties. The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are deposited with or held by financial institutions in the U.S., Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, Slovenia, Austria, and Singapore. The Company generally does not require collateral to support the obligations of the counterparties and deposits at financial institutions may, at times, be in excess of federal or national insured limits or deposit-guarantee limits in each of the respective countries. The Company has not experienced material losses on its deposits. The maximum amount of loss as of January 31, 2026 that the Company would incur if parties to cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments failed completely to perform according to the terms of the contracts is $637.9 million.

Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers across various countries. As of January 31, 2026, one customer accounted for 33% of accounts receivable. As of January 31,2025, one customer accounted for 12% or more of accounts receivable. Two customers accounted for 13% and 12% of revenue for the fiscal year ended January 31,2026. One customer accounted for 19%, and 21% of revenue for the fiscal years ended January 31,2025, and 2024, respectively.

The Company’s offerings depend on continued and new approvals from the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (“NOAA”), and other U.S. and international regulatory agencies for the Company to continue its operations. There can be no assurance that the Company’s operations will continue to receive the necessary approvals or that such operations will be supported by the U.S. government or other governments. If the Company was denied such approvals, if such approvals were delayed, or if the U.S. government’s or other governments’ policies change, these events may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

The Company contracts with certain third-party service providers to launch satellites. Service providers who provide these services are limited. The inability of launch service providers to contract with the Company could materially impact future operating results.

Inventories

Inventories primarily consist of satellite material and are recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the average cost method. Work in process and finished goods primarily consists of materials and labor associated with existing customer contract requirements. If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the utility of our inventories have diminished through damage, deterioration, obsolescence, changes in price or other causes, a loss is recognized in the period in which it occurs.

The Company classifies satellite material as either inventory or property and equipment based on the Company's intended use at the time of procurement. If intended use subsequently changes, costs are reclassified between inventory and property and equipment based on the carrying amount on the date of transfer.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Significant improvements that extend the useful life or add functionality to property and equipment are capitalized. Depreciation is computed once an asset is placed in service using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, which is as follows:

Estimated useful life(in years)
Computer equipment and purchased software3
Office furniture, equipment and fixtures5
Satellites2.5 to 9
Ground stations and ground station equipment3 to 10
Leasehold improvementslesser of useful life or term of lease

Costs directly associated with design, construction, launch, and commissioning of satellites and systems are capitalized when the design of the satellites and systems is at a sufficiently advanced stage such that the Company believes that recovery of the costs through future cash inflows is probable. The Company capitalizes material, labor and launch costs (including integration and launch insurance costs) that are incurred and necessary for the satellites to be placed into service. The Company depreciates the cost of a satellite over its estimated useful life, using the straight-line method of depreciation, once it is placed into service, which is when the Company determines that the satellites are providing imagery that meets the required quality specifications for sale to its customers.

The estimated useful life over which the Company depreciates a satellite is determined once the satellite has been placed into service. The initial determination of the satellite’s useful life involves the consideration of multiple factors, including design life, random part failure probabilities, expected component degradation and cycle life, fuel consumption (where applicable), and experience with satellite parts, vendors and similar assets.

At least annually, or more frequently, should facts and circumstances indicate a need, the Company performs an assessment of the remaining useful lives of its property and equipment including its satellites. The assessment for satellites evaluates satellite usage data, remaining fuel (where applicable), operational stresses and other factors that may impact the satellite’s expected useful life.

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024, additional information specific to certain high resolution satellites became available indicating that the useful lives of these satellites will be less than originally estimated. The changes in estimated useful lives for these satellites were accounted for prospectively, resulting in an increase of depreciation expense of $7.0 million and an increase in basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders of approximately $0.02 for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024.

Leases

The Company’s leasing activities primarily consist of real estate leases for its operations, including office space, and certain ground station service agreements that convey the right to control the use of specified equipment and facilities. The Company assesses whether each lease is an operating or finance lease at the lease commencement date. As of January 31, 2026, the Company had no finance leases.

The Company’s lease agreements do not contain residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Certain of the Company’s leases include escalation clauses, options to renew and options for early termination. The Company utilizes the base, non-cancelable period as the lease term when initially recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, unless it is reasonably certain that a renewal or termination option will be exercised.

Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and expense for these leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not separate lease and non-lease components for its operating leases. The Company elected to utilize the package of practical expedients for transition which permitted the Company to not reassess its prior conclusions regarding whether a contract is or contains a lease, lease classification and initial direct costs.

As the rate implicit in the lease is generally not readily determinable for the Company’s operating leases, the discount rates used to determine the present value of the Company’s lease liabilities are based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date and commensurate with the remaining lease term. The incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term for an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Company references market yield curves which are risk-adjusted to approximate a collateralized rate.

Capitalized Internal-Use Software Development Costs

Costs directly attributable to the development of internal-use software are capitalized when the preliminary design of the software is completed, management has committed funding to proceed with the development and confirmed adequate probability that the project will be completed and the software will function as intended. Capitalization is discontinued when the project is substantially completed and ready for its intended use. The Company capitalizes labor costs that are incurred and necessary for the software to be placed into service and any interest costs apportioned to the project, if material. The Company amortizes capitalized internal-use software development costs, once it is placed into service, over its estimated useful life using the straight-line method, which is generallyone tofour years based on management’s determination of the duration of time during which the related software will be in use and contributing to the Company’s cash flows.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The carrying amount of long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets, property and equipment, and operating lease right-of-use assets to be held and used in the business are reviewed for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators include, among other conditions, cash flow deficits, historic or anticipated declines in revenue or operating profit or material adverse changes in the business climate that indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may be impaired. When impairment indicators are present, the recoverability of the long-lived asset (or asset group) is measured by comparing the carrying value of the asset or asset group to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If the carrying amount of the assets or asset group is not recoverable, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the long-lived asset or asset group exceeds the fair value of the assets or asset group.

There wereno material impairment charges recorded for the Company’s long-lived assets during the fiscal years ended January 31,2026, 2025 and 2024.

Restructuring Charges

The Company’s restructuring plans have historically focused on workforce reductions. Workforce reduction charges primarily include employee termination benefits consisting of severance and other employee-related costs and are generally recognized when payments are probable and amounts are estimable. Although the Company does not anticipate significant changes, the actual costs may differ from these estimates.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for its business combinations using the acquisition accounting method, which requires it to determine the fair value of net assets acquired, including intangible assets and related goodwill. The Company allocates the fair value of purchase consideration to the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests in the acquired entity based on their fair values at the acquisition date. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management’s judgment and involves the use of significant estimates, including projections of future cash inflows and outflows, discount rates, asset lives and market multiples. There are different valuation models for each component, the selection of which requires judgment. These determinations will affect the amount of amortization expense recognized in future periods. The Company bases its fair value estimates on assumptions it believes are reasonable but recognizes that the assumptions are inherently uncertain.

Acquisition-related costs are accounted for as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. The operating results of the acquired business are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of the acquisition date.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is not subject to amortization and is tested for impairment at least annually, during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired, at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit, as defined under applicable accounting guidance, is an operating segment or one level below an operating segment. In assessing goodwill for impairment, the Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. In the qualitative assessment, the Company considers factors including economic conditions, industry and market conditions and developments, overall financial performance and other relevant entity-specific events in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying amount. Should the Company conclude that it is more likely than not that the recorded goodwill amounts have been impaired, or if the Company elects to bypass the optional qualitative assessment as provided for under U.S. GAAP, the Company proceeds with performing a quantitative impairment test. Goodwill impairment exists when a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value. Significant judgment is applied when goodwill is assessed for impairment. No goodwill impairment was recorded for the Company’s reporting unit during the fiscal years ended January 31,2026, 2025 and 2024.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with finite useful lives are carried at cost, net of accumulated amortization and impairment, where applicable. Amortization is recorded over the estimated useful lives of the assets on a straight-line basis as follows:

Estimateduseful life(in years)
Developed technology5 to 9
Imagery library5 to 7
Customer relationships5 to 9
Trade names and other2 to 7

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”).

The Company derives its revenue principally from licensing rights to use imagery, dedicated capacity, data solutions and satellite services arrangements. Imagery licensing and data solutions are delivered digitally through the Company's online platform in addition to providing related services.

The Company also provides a small amount of other services to customers, including professional services such as training, analytical services, research and development services to third parties, and other value-added activities related to imagery products. These revenues are recognized as the services are rendered, on a proportional performance basis for fixed price contracts or ratably over the contract term for subscription professional services contracts. Training revenues are recognized as the services are performed.

Imagery Licensing, Dedicated Capacity and Data Solutions

Imagery licensing arrangements generally provide customers with the right to access imagery through the Company’s platform, download content on a limited or unlimited basis over the contractual period depending on the terms of the applicable contract, or provide both the right to access imagery and download content. The Company also provides dedicated image tasking capacity over a specific area of interest. These agreements vary by contract, however, generally they have annual or multi-year contractual terms and typically billed in advance either quarterly or annually. The imagery licensing agreements are generally purchased via a fixed price contract on a subscription or usage basis, whereby a customer pays for access to the Company’s imagery that may be downloaded or tasked over a specific period of time, or, less frequently, on a transactional basis, whereby the customer pays for individual content or archive access licenses. The Company’s imagery licensing agreements, dedicated capacity and service agreements are often non-cancelable and do not contain refund-type provisions.

The Company identifies platform access and imagery downloads as separate performance obligations. Revenue for platform access and dedicated tasking capacity is recognized ratably over the contract term as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits.

Revenue for existing archived imagery (which has significant standalone functionality) is recognized at a point in time when the imagery is available for download, which is typically at contract commencement. The portion of the contract consideration related to the download of existing archived imagery content is generally not significant Revenue for monitoring imagery downloads is recognized over the contract term using a usage-based output measure. However, if the contract provides for unlimited downloads, revenue is recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract.

The Company also has a small number of large contracts that have required payment terms that are monthly or quarterly in arrears.

The Company provides data solutions offerings, providing customers with services related to site monitoring, change detection, vessel detection and enhanced analytics. The Company's data solutions are offered on a subscription basis and are generally purchased via fixed price contracts for continuous access over the contract period. In most cases, data solutions offerings are accounted for as a single performance obligation due to the integrated nature of the Company's data solutions content. The Company determined that the contractual consideration related to data solutions access subscriptions is recognized ratably over the contract period as the Company has a stand-ready obligation to provide continuous access to the solutions.

Satellite Services

The Company has entered into multi-year satellite services agreements whereby customers purchase satellites manufactured by the Company. In connection with these arrangements, the Company may provide additional products and services such as ground station infrastructure and engineering, satellite operations and professional services, which generally represent distinct performance obligations. These arrangements are fixed price contracts whereby the Company generally invoices based on specified contractual milestones.

Revenue for satellites and ground station infrastructure purchased by customers is recognized at a point in time when control of the products transfers, which is generally upon customer acceptance. In certain arrangements, revenue for satellites and ground station infrastructure is recognized over time as the work progresses when there is continuous transfer of control to the customer, which is supported either by either the Company's rights to payment of the transaction price associated with work performed to date that does not have an alternative use to the Company or by contractual termination clauses. Revenue for engineering, satellite operations and professional services is recognized over time.

For satellites, ground station infrastructure, and certain engineering services revenue recognized over time, the Company utilizes the cost-to-cost method (cost incurred relative to total cost estimated at completion) because it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer as the Company incurs costs on the contracts. Use of the cost-to-cost method requires the Company to make reasonable estimates regarding the estimation of total costs at completion. Changes to the estimation of total costs at completion are recorded as a cumulative catch-up adjustment.

In connection with certain satellite services agreements, the Company is provided with image licensing rights for certain imagery generated from satellites purchased by the customer. The Company determined that the rights represent noncash consideration. Noncash consideration is reflected in the transaction price at its fair value measured at contract inception.

The Company determines revenue recognition in accordance with ASC 606 through the following five steps:

(1) Identify the contract with a customer: The Company considers the terms and conditions of the contracts and the Company’s customary business practices in identifying its contracts under ASC 606. The Company determines it has a contract with a customer when the contract has been approved by both parties, it can identify each party’s rights regarding the services to be transferred and the payment terms for the services, it has determined the customer to have the ability and intent to pay, and the contract has commercial substance. At contract inception, the Company evaluates whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as a single contract and whether the combined or single contract includes more than one performance obligation.

(2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract: At contract inception, the Company assesses the product offerings in its contracts to identify performance obligations that are distinct. A performance obligation is distinct when it is separately identifiable from other items in a bundled package and if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer. To identify the performance obligations, the Company considers all of the product offerings promised in the contract.

(3) Determine the transaction price: The transaction price is the total amount of consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the product offerings in a contract. The prices of the Company's products are generally fixed at contract inception and therefore, the Company’s contracts do not contain a significant amount of variable consideration. From time to time, the Company may enter into contracts with its customers that provide a form of variable consideration. For these arrangements, the Company estimates the variable consideration at the contract inception based on the most likely amount in a range of possible outcomes. The estimate of variable consideration is reassessed on a quarterly basis.

(4) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract: When the Company’s contracts with customers contain more than a single performance obligation, management allocates the total contract consideration to each performance obligation on a relative SSP basis. The SSP is the price at which the Company would sell a promised product or service separately to a customer. Judgment is required to determine the SSP for each distinct performance obligation. The Company determines SSP by considering its overall pricing practices and market conditions, including the Company’s discounting practices, the size and volume of the Company’s transactions, the customer demographic, price lists, historical sales, contract prices and customer relationships.

(5) Recognize revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied: Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised service to a customer. Revenue is recognized when control of the services is transferred to the customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those services.

Amounts that have been invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable and in deferred revenue or revenue, depending on whether the underlying performance obligations have been satisfied. Advance payments from customers have been categorized as current or non-current deferred revenue based on the expected performance date.

The Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis. The Company is the principal in the transaction as it is the party responsible for the performance obligation and it controls the product or service before transferring it to the customer.

Revenue excludes sales and usage-based taxes where it has been determined that the Company is acting as a pass through agent.

The Company applied the practical expedient in Topic 606 and does not evaluate contracts of one year or less for the existence of a significant financing component. For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized $1.5 million and $0.8 million of interest expense associated with a multi-year customer contract that contains a significant financing component, respectively. For the fiscal years ended January 31,2024, there wasno interest expense to recognize relating to a significant financing component.

Cost of revenue consists of employee-related costs of performing account and data provisioning, customer support, satellite and engineering operations, as well as the costs of operating and retrieving information from the satellites, processing and storing the data retrieved. Cost of revenue also includes third party imagery expenses, depreciation of the Company's satellites and ground stations, amortization of acquired intangibles and the amortization of capitalized internal-use software related to creating imagery provided to customers. Cost of revenue for our satellite services arrangements includes employee-related costs of designing and manufacturing customer-owned satellites, mission systems engineering, satellite operations, software development, and maintenance, as well as satellite inventory materials, third-party fees for launch procurement, and ground station infrastructure.

Employee-related costs include salaries, benefits, bonuses and stock-based compensation. Cost of revenue from professional services consists primarily of employee-related costs associated with providing these services, including costs paid to subcontractors and certain third-party fees.

Research and development expenses primarily include personnel related expenses for employees and consultants, hardware costs, supplies costs, contractor fees and administrative expenses. Employee-related costs include salaries, benefits, bonuses and stock-based compensation. Expenses classified as research and development are expensed as incurred and attributable to advancing technology research, platform and infrastructure development and the research and development of new product iterations.

The Company continues to iterate its satellites and operations for optimal efficiency and function. Costs associated with satellite and other space related research and development activities are expensed as incurred.

Funding for the Company’s performance of research and development services under certain arrangements (see Note 9) are recognized as a reduction of research and development expenses based on measurement of progress using the input method.

Sales and marketing expenses primarily include costs incurred to market and distribute the Company’s products. Such costs include expenses related to advertising and conferences, sales commissions, salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation for the Company’s sales and marketing personnel and sales office expenses. Sales and marketing expenses also include fees for professional and consulting services principally consisting of public relations and independent contractor expenses. Sales commissions are capitalized when incurred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of benefit. Other sales and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024 were not significant.

General and administrative expenses include personnel-related expenses and facilities-related costs primarily for its executive, finance, accounting, legal and human resources functions. General and administrative expenses also include fees for professional services principally comprised of legal, audit, tax, and insurance, as well as executive management expenses. General and administrative costs are expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and various foreign jurisdictions and uses estimates in determining its provisions for income taxes.

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets where it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company recognizes and measures uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording uncertain tax positions taken, or expected to be taken in a tax return, in the consolidated financial statements. The Company accrues for the estimated amount of taxes for uncertain tax positions if it is more likely than not that the Company would be required to pay such additional taxes. An uncertain tax position will not be recognized if it has a less than 50% likelihood of being sustained.

The global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI) provisions of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act impose a tax on foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporation. The Company elects to treat any potential GILTI inclusions as a period cost.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation expense in accordance with the fair value recognition and measurement provisions of U.S. GAAP, which require compensation cost for the grant-date fair value of stock-based awards to be recognized over the requisite service period. The Company determines the fair value of stock-based awards granted or modified, using appropriate valuation techniques. The Company recognizes forfeitures as they occur.

The grant date fair value of stock options granted is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company records stock-based compensation expense for stock options on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally four years.

The fair value of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) is the fair value of the underlying stock at the measurement date based on its quoted market price on the NYSE. For RSU awards that are subject only to a time-based service vesting requirement, the Company records stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally four years. For RSU awards that are subject to both time-based service and performance condition (including liquidity event) vesting requirements, no expense is recognized until it is probable that the vesting criteria would be met. Stock-based compensation expense for RSU awards with performance and other vesting criteria is recognized as expense under an accelerated graded vesting model.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement for the Business Combination, Former Planet equity holders, including Former Planet equity award holders, have the right to receive earn-out consideration (the “Earn-out Shares”). The Earn-out Shares may be earned infour equal tranches based on market condition vesting requirements (see Note 15).

The Earn-out Shares allocated to Former Planet equity award holders are accounted for as stock-based compensation pursuant to ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, because service must be provided through each market condition vesting requirement. The fair value of the Earn-out Shares allocated to Former Planet equity award holders was determined upon the close of the Business Combination which is recognized as stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period. Compensation expense for awards with market conditions is not reversed if the market condition is not met.

The fair value of the Earn-out Shares was estimated using a model based on multiple stock price paths developed through the use of a Monte Carlo simulation that incorporates into the valuation the possibility that the market condition targets may not be satisfied. This valuation model requires inputs such as the fair value of the Company’s Class A common stock, the risk-free interest rate, expected term, expected dividend yield and expected volatility. The fair value of the Company’s Class A common stock is the closing stock price on the NYSE as of the measurement date. The risk-free interest rate assumption is determined by using the U.S. Treasury rates of the same period as the expected term of the Earn-out Shares, which is five years from the closing of the Business Combination. The Company’s volatility was derived from several publicly traded peer companies. The Company had historically been a private company and lacked sufficient company-specific historical and implied volatility information. Therefore, the Company estimated its expected stock volatility based on the historical volatility of a publicly traded set of peer companies. The requisite service period for each of thefour vesting tranches for the Earnout Shares was derived from the median time to vest for each tranche utilizing the same simulation model that produced the fair value estimate.

Public and Private Placement Warrant Liabilities

In connection with dMY IV’s initial public offering, which occurred on March 9, 2021, dMY IV issued 34,500,000 units, consisting ofone share of Class A common stock of dMY IV and one-fifth of one redeemable warrant, at a price of $10.00 per unit (the “Public Warrants”). Simultaneously with the closing of its initial public offering, dMY IV completed the private sale of 5,933,333 warrants to dMY Sponsor IV, LLC (the “dMY Sponsor”) at a purchase price of $1.50 per warrant (the “Private Placement Warrants”). Additionally, pursuant to a lock-up agreement entered into with the dMY Sponsor in connection with the Business Combination,2,966,667 of the Private Placement Warrants are subject to vesting conditions (the “Private Placement Vesting Warrants”). See Note 12 for further details relating to the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants.

The Company evaluated the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants, which are warrants for Class A common stock, under ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”), and concluded that they do not meet the criteria to be classified in stockholders’ equity. Specifically, the exercise of the warrants may be settled in cash upon the occurrence of a tender offer or exchange that involves 50% or more of the Company’s Class A stockholders. As there are two classes of common stock, not all of the stockholders need to participate in such tender offer or exchange to trigger the potential cash settlement and the Company does not control the occurrence of such an event, the Company concluded that the warrants do not meet the conditions to be classified in equity. Since the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants meet the definition of a derivative under ASC 815, the Company recorded these warrants as liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value, with subsequent changes in their respective fair values recognized in the consolidated statements of operations at each reporting date.

The Public Warrants are traded on the NYSE and are recorded at fair value using the closing price as of the measurement date.

The fair value of the Private Placement Warrants (excluding the Private Placement Vesting Warrants) are estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Due to the market condition vesting requirements, the fair value of the Private Placement Vesting Warrants are estimated using a model based on multiple stock price paths developed through the use of a Monte Carlo simulation that incorporates into the valuation the possibility that the market condition targets may not be satisfied. These valuation models require inputs such as the fair value of the Company’s Class A common stock, the risk-free interest rate, expected term, expected dividend yield and expected volatility. The fair value of the Company’s Class A common stock is the closing stock price on the NYSE as of the measurement date. The risk-free interest rate assumption is determined by using the U.S. Treasury rates of the same period as the expected term of the Private Placement Warrants, which isfive years from the closing of the Business Combination. As of January 31, 2026, the Company used the historical volatility of its Class A common stock and implied volatility from publicly traded stock options for the applicable valuation models.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translation

The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiaries has been determined to be either the U.S. dollar, Euro or Canadian dollar as the case may be. Revenue and expenses of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries, with a functional currency of either Euro or Canadian dollar, are translated into U.S. dollars using the monthly average exchange rates prevailing during the period. The assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within stockholders’ equity.

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are recorded based on the exchange rates at the time of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities are subject to remeasurement at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, with subsequent changes in exchange rates resulting in transaction gains or losses, which are included within other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations. Foreign currency gain (loss) was $2.2 million, $(0.1) million and $(0.5) million for the years ended January 31,2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Segments

Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. In evaluating operating segments, the Company considers: its internal organizational structure; the availability of separate financial information; and the criteria used by the Company’s CODM, its Chief Executive Officer, to evaluate performance. The Company has determined that it operates inone operating segment andone reportable segment, as the CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources, and evaluating financial performance.

See Note 18, Segment and Geographic Information, for financial information for the Company’s reportable segment and long-lived assets by geographic region.

Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is presented in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities. Under the two-class method, net loss is attributed to common stockholders and participating securities based on their participation rights. The Company had no participating securities outstanding during any of the periods presented.

Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same for Class A and Class B shares of common stock because they are entitled to the same liquidation and dividend rights. Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding.

Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive securities outstanding for the period. For the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024, all potentially dilutive securities were antidilutive and accordingly, basic net loss per share equals diluted net loss per share.

Revenue

Deferred Revenue

During the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized revenue of $79.4 million, $68.8 million and $50.9 million, respectively, that had been included in deferred revenue as of January 31,2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Remaining Performance Obligations

The Company often enters into multi-year imagery licensing and dedicated capacity arrangements with its customers, whereby the Company generally invoices the amount for the first year of the contract at signing followed by subsequent annual invoices. The Company has also entered into multi-year satellite services arrangements in which we build and operate satellites owned by the customer, whereby the Company generally invoices based on specified contractual milestones or fixed due dates throughout the contract term. Remaining performance obligations represent the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes both deferred revenue and non-cancelable contracted revenue that will be invoiced and recognized in revenue in future periods. The Company’s remaining performance obligations were $852.4 million as of January 31,2026. The Company expects to recognize approximately 34% of the remaining performance obligations within the next 12 months, approximately 65% of the remaining obligations within the next 24 months, and the remainder thereafter.

Remaining performance obligations do not include unexercised contract options, written orders where funding has not been appropriated and contracts which provide the customer with a right to terminate for convenience without incurring a substantive termination penalty.

Costs to Obtain and Fulfill a Contract

Commissions paid to the Company’s direct sales force are considered incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Accordingly, commissions are capitalized when incurred and amortized to sales and marketing expense over the period of benefit from the underlying contracts. The period of benefit from the underlying contract is consistent with the timing of transfer to the performance obligations to which the capitalized costs relate, and is generally consistent with the contract term.

During the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024, the Company capitalized $2.7 million, $2.7 million and $1.8 million of deferred commission expenditures to be amortized in future periods. The Company’s amortization of deferred commission expenditures was $2.1 million, $2.9 million and $2.6 million for the fiscal years ended January 31,2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of January 31,2026 and 2025, deferred commissions consisted of the following:

January 31,
(in thousands)20262025
Deferred commission, current$1,913$1,982
Deferred commission, non-current2,4091,721
Total deferred commission$4,322$3,703

The current portion of deferred commissions are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The non-current portion of deferred commissions are included in other non-current assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

Disaggregation of Revenue

Beginning in the fiscal year ending January 31, 2026, the Company revised the presentation of revenue by geography in its disaggregated revenue disclosures. Previously, revenue was disaggregated by individual country, but it is now presented by major geographic region. This change was made to enhance comparability with peer companies and to better align external reporting with how management evaluates the effect of economic factors on the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows. The Company has applied this change in presentation retrospectively, with comparable periods being revised to reflect the new change in presentation. This change in presentation has no impact on the Company’s total reported revenue, net loss, or any other financial statement line item for any period presented.

The following table disaggregates revenue by major geographic region:

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

Assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their respective fair values.

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial instruments that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis for recognition or disclosure purposes as of January 31, 2026 and 2025 by level within the fair value hierarchy. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires management to make judgments and consider factors specific to the asset or liability.

The fair value of cash held in banks and accrued and other current liabilities approximate the stated carrying value due to the short time to maturity and are excluded from the tables above.

Money Market Funds

The fair value of the Company’s money market funds is based on quoted active market prices for the funds and is determined using the market approach. There were no realized or unrealized gains or losses on money market funds during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024.

Short-term Investments

The fair value of the Company’s short-term investments classified within Level 1 are valued using quoted active market prices for the securities. The fair value of the Company’s short-term investments classified within Level 2 are valued using third-party pricing services. The pricing services utilize industry standard valuation models. Inputs utilized include market pricing based on real-time trade data for the same or similar securities and other significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

The Public Warrants are classified within Level 1 as they are publicly traded and had an observable market price in an active market.

The Private Placement Warrants (excluding the Private Placement Vesting Warrants) were valued based on a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Due to the market condition vesting requirements, the fair value of the Private Placement Vesting Warrants were valued using a model based on multiple stock price paths developed through the use of a Monte Carlo simulation that incorporates into the valuation the possibility that the market condition targets may not be satisfied. The Private Placement Warrants were collectively classified as a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy because these valuation models involve the use of unobservable inputs relating to the Company’s estimate of its expected stock volatility. The expected volatility input utilized for the fair value measurements of the Private Placement Warrants as of January 31, 2026 and 2025 was 95% and 80%, respectively.

Contingent Consideration for Acquisitions

The Company has recorded contingent consideration liabilities in connection with its acquisitions of Salo Sciences and Sinergise (see Note 5). The Company measures the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which caused them to be classified as a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of the contingent consideration liability for the Salo Sciences technical milestone payments is determined based on the present value of the probability-weighted payments for each of thetwo milestones. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement are management’s estimate of the probability to achieve the technical milestone criteria and the discount rate. The Company determined that both of the technical milestone criteria were achieved during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025.

The fair value of the contingent consideration liability for the Salo Sciences customer contract earnout payments is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation. The fair value estimate involves a simulation of future customer contract cash collections during thefour-year performance period, the probability of entering into contracts with the named customers and discounting the probability-weighed earnout payments to present value. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement are management’s estimate of obtaining the customer contracts, including probabilities, timing and contract values, and management’s estimate of the discount rate.

The fair value of the contingent consideration liability for the Sinergise customer consent escrow is determined based on the present value of the probability-weighted payments based on the likelihood of the customer consent being achieved. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement is management’s estimate of the likelihood of the customer consent being achieved. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, evidence of the Sinergise acquisition customer consent was received and the $7.5 million escrow balance was released to Sinergise.

Level 3 Disclosures

(1) The current portion of the contingent consideration liabilities balances of $4.7 million as of January 31,2025, is included within accrued and other current liabilities. Changes in fair value of the contingent consideration liability for the Salo Sciences technical milestone payments are included within research and development expenses. Changes in fair value of the Salo Sciences contingent consideration liability for customer contract earnout payments are included within sales and marketing expenses. Changes in fair value of the contingent consideration liability for the Sinergise acquisition customer consent escrow payments are included within general and administrative expenses.

(2) During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, the Company transferred 2,966,666 Private Placement Warrants from Level 3 to Level 1. The warrants were transferred to Level 1 due to the removal of the restrictive legends from the Private Placement Warrants, resulting in such warrants being able to be sold in the active market. The Company's policy is to recognize transfers between fair value hierarchy levels at the beginning of the reporting period during which the transfer occurred.

(3) During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, the Company transferred the contingent consideration liabilities for technical milestone payments and customer contract earnout payments out of Level 3 to a legal contingency accrual in accordance with ASC 450. The liability was transferred due to the probable settlement expected to extinguish any contractual amounts owed for the acquisition, inclusive of the contingent consideration liabilities balance. Refer to Note 10.

Financial Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value

As of January 31, 2026, $460.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2030 Notes (as defined below) was outstanding, with an estimated fair value of $1,045.2 million. The estimated fair value of the 2030 Notes was determined based on quoted market prices on the last trading day of the reporting period and are categorized as Level 2 financial instruments, as the 2030 Notes are not actively traded.

Other

The Company measures certain non-financial assets including property and equipment, and other intangible assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis in periods after initial measurement in circumstances when the fair value of such assets are impaired below their recorded cost. As of January 31, 2026 and 2025, there were no material non-financial assets recorded at fair value.

Acquisitions

Bedrock

On November 14, 2025, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Bedrock Research, Inc. ("Bedrock"), a privately-held company, to acquire the multi-modal geospatial artificial intelligence technology business from Bedrock and the expertise of its key employees. On November 14, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition. The acquisition is expected to expand the Company's downstream solutions offerings, providing customers with comprehensive daily insights into strategic locations worldwide.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred was $6.0 million, consisting of $5.4 million in cash and an indemnification holdback liability for cash consideration of $0.6 million.

The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition consisted of a $2.1 million developed technology intangible asset and $3.9 million of goodwill. The developed technology was measured at fair value and was assigned an estimated useful life of 5 years. The goodwill primarily represents the value expected from the synergies created through the operational enhancement benefits resulting from the integration of Bedrock into the Company and the combination of Bedrock's solutions with the Company’s existing products. The goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.

The financial results of Bedrock are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Acquisition-related costs associated with this transaction were not material. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented as the effect of this acquisition was not material to the consolidated financial statements.

Sinergise

On March 26, 2023, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Holding Sinergise d.o.o., a company existing under the laws of Slovenia (“Sinergise”), and its subsidiaries and certain shareholders of Sinergise, to acquire the cloud-based geo-spatial analysis products, platforms and solutions business from Sinergise. On August 4, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred was approximately $41.1 million, and consisted of the following:

(in thousands)Fair Value
Cash$8,610
Class A common stock issued21,622
Liabilities for cash consideration placed in escrow account10,842
Total$41,074

The common stock issued consisted of 6,745,438 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. The fair value of the Class A common stock was determined based on the closing market price on the date of the acquisition.

In April 2024, the Company paid $1.1 million of additional consideration in connection with the finalization of the net working capital adjustment relating to the Company’s acquisition of Sinergise. The additional amount was accounted for as a measurement period adjustment and resulted in a $1.1 million addition of goodwill during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025.

Pursuant to the terms of the asset purchase agreement, the Company placed $5.0 millionof cash consideration into an escrow account to secure potential indemnification obligations and any customary post-closing adjustments for working capital and indebtedness (the “Indemnity Escrow”). The amount held in the escrow account is to be released to Sinergise upon thetwo-year anniversary of the acquisition close date. The Company recorded a liability of $5.0 million for the Indemnity Escrow.

Pursuant to the terms of the asset purchase agreement, the Company placed an additional $7.5 million of cash consideration into an escrow account related to obtaining customer consent for a contract acquired in connection with the acquisition (the “Customer Consent Escrow”). The amount held in the escrow account is to be released to Sinergise upon the Company receiving evidence of the customer consent. If evidence of the customer consent is not received on or prior to the two year anniversary of the acquisition close date, the amount held in the Customer Consent Escrow is to be released to the Company. Additionally, the amount held in the Customer Consent Escrow is to be released to the Company if the customer contract is terminated or suspended on or prior to thetwo year anniversary of the acquisition close date. The Company determined that the customer consent contingency represents contingent consideration. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability as of the acquisition date was determined to be $5.8 million. Refer to Note 4 for information relating to the valuation of the Customer Consent Escrow contingent consideration.

Cash held in escrow related to the acquisition is recorded within restricted cash and cash equivalents in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

The following table summarizes the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition, after considering the measurement period adjustment described above:

The identifiable intangible assets were measured at fair value. The developed technology was valued using the royalty method under the income approach. The customer relationships were valued using the excess earnings method under the income approach. The developed technology was assigned an estimated useful life of 8 years and the customer relationships were assigned an estimated useful life of 9 years.

The excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of other assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill primarily represents the value expected from the synergies created through the operational enhancement benefits resulting from the integration of Sinergise into the Company and the combination of Sinergise’s products and solutions with the Company’s existing products. Approximately $0.7 million of the goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.

The financial results of Sinergise are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition, which was August 4, 2023. For the period from August 4, 2023 through January 31, 2024, Sinergise contributed $5.7 million of revenue and an immaterial amount of income before taxes. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented as the effect of this acquisition was not material to the consolidated financial statements.

Acquisition-related costs associated with the transaction were $2.2 million and $0.9 million for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. These costs were recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses.

Certain employees of Sinergise, which became employees of the Company, were paid cash transaction bonuses totaling $2.3 million in connection with the closing of the acquisition. The transaction bonuses were accounted for as a transaction separate from the business combination. Accordingly, $2.3 million of the consideration paid by the Company was allocated to the transaction bonuses and was recorded within the Company’s consolidated statements of operations as summarized in the table below:

The identifiable intangible assets were measured at fair value. The developed technology was valued using the royalty method under the income approach. The customer relationships were valued using the excess earnings method under the income approach. These models primarily utilized Level 3 inputs, including estimated projections of revenues and expenses, estimated discount rates, and with respect to the developed technology, an estimated royalty rate.

The customer relationships were assigned an estimated useful life of 5 years and the developed technology was assigned an estimated useful life of 7 years.

The goodwill primarily represents the value expected from the synergies created through the operational enhancement benefits resulting from the integration of Salo into the Company and the combination of Salo’s solutions with the Company’s existing products. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

The financial results of Salo are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Acquisition-related costs associated with this transaction were not material. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented as the effect of this acquisition was not material to the consolidated financial statements.

The purchase agreement for the Salo acquisition includestwo contingent consideration arrangements. One arrangement contingently obligates the Company to make payments based on the achievement of certain technical milestones relating to the integration of Salo. The other arrangement contingently obligates the Company to make earnout payments based on the amount of cash collected by the Company under certain of Salo’s existing and prospective customer contracts.

The technical milestone payments consist oftwo equal milestone payments for aggregate payments of up to $6.5 million. The first milestone payment becomes payable if certain technical milestones are achieved within the firsttwo years following the closing of the acquisition and the second milestone payment becomes payable if certain additional technical milestones are achieved within the first four years following the closing of the acquisition. Each of the payments becomes payable following the end of respective performance periods.

The customer contract earnout payments are paid on the basis of 80% of cash collected by the Company under certain of Salo’s existing and prospective customer contracts during the first four years following the closing of the acquisition with such payments made on quarterly basis following collections under the customer contracts. The maximum amount payable for the earnout payments is $10.4 million.

The aggregate fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities on the acquisition date was determined to be $8.0 million, consisting of $4.4 million for the technical milestone payments and $3.6 million for the customer contract earnout payments. The Company will continue to measure the contingent consideration liabilities at fair value each reporting period until the earlier of when the full amounts have been paid or the measurement period for each of the arrangements has ended. See Note 4 for details of the fair value measurement for the contingent consideration liabilities.

Research and Development Arrangements

Google Research and Development Services Agreement

In October 2025, the Company entered into an agreement with Google LLC ("Google"), a related party (see Note 14), whereby the Company agreed to provide research and development services relating to testing the viability and performance of a payload integrated on prototype satellites (the "Google R&D Services Agreement"). The agreement provides for the Company to receive funding to be paid as specific milestones are achieved. The Google R&D Services Agreement is unrelated to the Company’s ordinary business activities and the Company determined that the arrangement is accounted for as an obligation to perform contractual research and development services for others pursuant to ASC 730-20, Research and Development. As ASC 730-20 does not indicate the accounting model for research and development services, the Company determined that the total transaction price will be recognized over the agreement term as a reduction of research and development expenses based on a cost incurred method.

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, the Company recognized $0.4 million of funding and incurred $0.4 million of research and development expenses in connection with the Google R&D Services Agreement. As of January 31,2026, the Company had received a total of $5.0 million of funding in connection with the Google R&D Services Agreement.

NASA Communication Services Project

In connection with its Communication Services Project (“CSP”), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (“NASA”) selected certain satellite communications providers that NASA will fund to develop and demonstrate near-Earth space communication services that may support future NASA missions using commercial technology. In June 2022 and August 2022, the Company entered into separate agreements withtwo of the satellite communications providers selected by NASA whereby the Company agreed to participate in the NASA CSP as a subcontractor. The agreements, including subsequent amendments to such agreements, provide for the Company to receive aggregate funding of $40.5 million to be paid as milestones are completed. The Company determined that the agreements are in the scope of ASC 912-730, Contractors –Federal Government – Research and Development (“ASC 912-730”). In accordance with ASC 912-730, funding is recognized over the term of each agreement as a reduction of research and development expenses based on a cost incurred method.

During the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, the Company recognized $7.3 million, $9.9 million, and $11.9 million of funding, respectively, and incurred $7.3 million, $9.9 million, and $11.2 million of research and development expenses, respectively, in connection with the NASA CSP. As of January 31,2026 and 2025, the Company had received a total of $30.4 million and $28.7 million, respectively, of funding in connection with the NASA CSP.

In July 2023, projected costs related to certain of our research and development arrangements were revised down as a result of operational decisions. This change in estimate resulted in a $2.2 million cumulative increase of funding recognized for certain of our research and development arrangements for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024.

Research and Development Services Agreement

In December 2020, the Company entered into a development services agreement whereby the Company agreed to provide the technical knowledge and services to design and develop certain prototype satellites and deliver and test early data collected (the “R&D Services Agreement”). The R&D Services Agreement, including subsequent amendments to such agreement, provides for funding of $46.4 million to be paid to the Company as specified milestones are achieved. The R&D Services Agreement is unrelated to the Company’s ordinary business activities and the Company determined that the arrangement is accounted for as an obligation to perform contractual research and development services for others pursuant to ASC 730-20, Research and Development. As ASC 730-20 does not indicate the accounting model for research and development services, the Company determined that the total transaction price will be recognized over the agreement term as a reduction of research and development expenses based on a cost incurred method. All milestones related to the R&D Services Agreement have been completed and all funding has been recognized by the Company.

During the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, the Company recognized $0.2 million, $9.2 million and $16.6 million of funding, respectively, and incurred $0.2 million, $7.0 million and $17.6 million of research and development expenses, respectively, in connection with the R&D Services Agreement. As of January 31,2026 and 2025, the Company had received a total of $46.4 million of funding in connection with the R&D Services Agreement.

In January 2025, projected costs related to the R&D Services Agreement were revised down as a result of the substantial completion of the development work required. This change in estimate resulted in a $1.5 million cumulative increase of funding recognized for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025.

Delaware Class Action

A stockholder class action was filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware on August 19, 2024, against the former officers and directors of dMY IV and the Company. The complaint alleges that the individual defendants breached various fiduciary duties to the dMY IV stockholders and that the Company aided and abetted such breaches. The case is brought on behalf of a purported class of holders of dMY IV Class A common stock who held such stock prior to the redemption deadline for the Business Combination, did not exercise the right to redeem their shares, and were allegedly injured. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on November 12, 2024. On January 6, 2025, the parties submitted a stipulation dismissing all claims against the Company, which the Court granted on January 8, 2025. The stockholder filed an amended complaint on January 10, 2025, which reasserts the claims against the former officers and directors for breach of fiduciary duty. On September 29, 2025, the Court denied a motion to dismiss the claims against the individual defendants. The parties are exploring mediation, with a mediation hearing scheduled for May 7, 2026. Those claims remain pending and, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company remains obligated to indemnify the former officers and directors for such claims. While the ultimate resolution of this matter is uncertain, the Company recorded an accrual for this matter reflected within accrued and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2026.

Acquisition-Related Dispute

On November 14, 2025, the former shareholders of a company acquired by the Company in a prior period filed a demand for arbitration against the Company. The claimants allege, among other things, breach of the underlying acquisition agreement. The parties are currently engaged in settlement negotiations in an effort to resolve the dispute prior to the commencement of formal arbitration proceedings. While the Company intends to defend itself vigorously should a settlement not be reached, the ultimate resolution of this matter remains uncertain. The Company recorded an accrual for this matter reflected within accrued and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2026.

For many legal matters, particularly those in early stages, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss (or range of loss), if any. The Company records an accrual for legal matters at the time or times it determines that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable. Regarding matters for which no accrual has been made (including the potential for losses in excess of amounts accrued), the Company currently believes, based on its own investigations, that any losses (or ranges of losses) that are reasonably possible and estimable will not, in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings involves judgments, estimates, and inherent uncertainties and cannot be predicted with certainty. Should the ultimate outcome of any legal matter be unfavorable, the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows could be materially and adversely affected. The Company may also incur substantial legal fees, which are expensed as incurred, in defending against legal claims.

Contingencies

The Company may have certain contingent liabilities that arise in the ordinary course of business activities including those arising from disputes and claims and events arising from revenue contracts entered into by the Company. The Company accrues a liability for such matters when it is probable that future expenditures will be made and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated.

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, the Company recognized a $5.5 million gain relating to insurance proceeds received for damage incurred to an experimental satellite. The gain is reflected within other income (expense), net on the consolidated statements of operations.

Indemnification

The Company enters into standard indemnification arrangements in the ordinary course of business. Pursuant to these arrangements, the Company indemnifies, holds harmless, and agrees to reimburse the indemnified parties for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, in connection with any trade secret, copyright, patent, or other intellectual property infringement claim by any third-party with respect to its technology. The term of these indemnification agreements is generally perpetual after the execution of the agreement. The Company has not incurred costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements. In the event that one or more of these matters were to result in a claim against the Company, an adverse outcome, including a judgment or settlement, may cause a material adverse effect on the Company’s future business, operating results or financial condition. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these contracts due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement.

The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and officers that may require the Company to indemnify them against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of the individual.

The Public Warrants may be exercised only for a whole number of shares of Class A common stock, and expire on December 7, 2026, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. The Public Warrants are listed on the NYSE under the symbol “PL WS.”

The Public Warrants became exercisable on March 9, 2022; provided that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants, and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permits holders to exercise their Public Warrants on a cashless basis and such cashless exercise is exempt from registration under the Securities Act).

Redemptions of Public Warrants When the Price Per Share of Class A common stock Equals or Exceeds $18.00

The Company may call the Public Warrants redemption for cash:

in whole and not in part;

at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and

if, and only if, the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within a 30‑trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

The Company will not redeem the warrants unless an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is effective and a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock is available throughout the 30-day redemption period.

Redemptions of Public Warrants When the Price Per Share of Class A common stock Equals or Exceeds $10.00

The Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

in whole and not in part;

at $0.10 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cash basis prior to redemption or cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined by reference to an agreed table based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” (as defined below) of the Company’s Class A common stock; and

if, and only if, the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds $10.00 per public share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within the 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company sends notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

The “fair market value” of Class A common stock shall mean the volume weighted average price of Class A common stock during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. In no event will the warrants be exercisable in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.361 shares of Class A common stock per warrant (subject to adjustment).

The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including in the event of a share dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation.

Simultaneously with the closing of its initial public offering, dMY IV completed the private sale of the 5,933,333 Private Placement Warrants to dMY Sponsor IV, LLC (the “dMY Sponsor”) at a purchase price of $1.50 per warrant. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable forone share of Class A common stock at $11.50 per share.

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants, including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise, are not transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the closing of the Business Combination (except in limited circumstances) and are not redeemable by the Company so long as they are held by the dMY Sponsor or its permitted transferees. Additionally, the dMY Sponsor, or its permitted transferees, has the option to exercise the Private Placement Warrants on a cashless basis. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the dMY Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

Additionally, the 2,966,667 Private Placement Vesting Warrants vest in four equal tranches (i) when the closing price of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $15.00, $17.00, $19.00 and $21.00, over any 20 trading days within any 30 day trading period prior to December 7, 2026 or (ii) when the Company consummates a change of control transaction prior to December 7, 2026 that entitles its stockholders to receive a per share consideration of at least $15.00, $17.00, $19.00 and $21.00. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, the requirements for three of the four vesting tranches were met, resulting in the vesting of 2,225,001 Private Placement Vesting Warrants.

Convertible Notes

2030 Convertible Notes

On September 12, 2025, the Company issued $460.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 0.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 (the “2030 Notes”), pursuant to an indenture (the "Indenture"), dated September 12, 2025, between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The 2030 Notes are senior, unsecured obligations of the Company and bear interest at a fixed rate of 0.50% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on April 15, 2026. The 2030 Notes will mature on October 15, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed, or converted pursuant to their terms.

The 2030 Notes are convertible at the option of the holders of the 2030 Notes at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding July 15, 2030 only under the following conditions:(1) during any fiscal quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ending on January 31, 2026 and only during such fiscal quarter, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business-day period after any five consecutive trading-day period in which the trading price (as defined in the Indenture) per $1,000 principal amount of 2030 Notes for each trading day of such five consecutive trading-day period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; (3) if the Company issues a notice of redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date, but only with respect to the 2030 Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption, unless the Company makes an “all notes election”; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or after July 15, 2030, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding October 15, 2030, holders of the 2030 Notes may convert all or any portion of their 2030 Notes at any time, in integral multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at the option of the holder regardless of the foregoing conditions. Upon conversion, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, either cash, shares of the Company’s Class A common stock or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, at the Company’s election.

The Company may not redeem the 2030 Notes prior to October 20, 2028. The Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the 2030 Notes (subject to certain limitations described in the Indenture), at the Company’s option, on or after October 20, 2028, but only if (1) the liquidity condition (as defined in the Indenture) is satisfied and (2) the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for the 2030 Notes then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading-day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides a notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company redeems less than all of the outstanding 2030 Notes, at least $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2030 Notes must be outstanding and not subject to redemption as of, and after giving effect to, delivery of the relevant notice of redemption (unless the Company makes an “all notes election” with respect to such partial redemption, in which case such partial redemption limitation shall not apply). No sinking fund is provided for the 2030 Notes.

The initial conversion rate for the 2030 Notes is 83.6715 shares of Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2030 Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $11.95 per share of the Company’s Class A common stock. The conversion rate is subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture) or delivery of a notice of redemption, the Company will, under certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for 2030 Notes converted in connection with such make-whole fundamental change or (x) 2030 Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption or (y) all 2030 Notes, if the Company makes an "all notes election" (as defined in the Indenture), irrespective of whether they are called (or deemed called) for redemption that are converted, in each case, in connection with such notice of redemption.

Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture) prior to October 15, 2030, holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the 2030 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

The 2030 Notes include customary covenants and events of default after the occurrence of which the 2030 Notes may be declared immediately due and payable and set forth certain types of bankruptcy or insolvency events of default after the occurrence of which the 2030 Notes become automatically due and payable. No such events have occurred as of January 31, 2026.

As of January 31, 2026, the conditions permitting the holders of the 2030 Notes to convert their 2030 Notes, or to require the Company to repurchase the 2030 Notes for cash, had not been met. Therefore, the 2030 Notes are classified as long-term.

The conversion feature was evaluated under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” and ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options” and was not separated as a derivative because it met the equity scope exception; therefore, the 2030 Notes are accounted for entirely as a liability.

Debt issuance costs related to the 2030 Notes totaled $14.2 million at inception and were comprised of discounts to the initial purchasers and third-party issuance costs and will be amortized to interest expense over the term of the 2030 Notes using the effective interest method. As of January 31, 2026, the unamortized debt discount and issuance cost of the 2030 Notes was $13.1 million. As of January 31, 2026, the effective interest rate of the 2030 Notes is 1.13%. For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, interest expense related to the 2030 Notes consisted of the following:

(in thousands)Year EndedJanuary 31, 2026
Contractual interest expense$888
Amortization of debt discount and issuance costs1,054
Total interest expense$1,942

Capped Calls

In connection with the issuance of the 2030 Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “Capped Call Transactions”) with certain financial institutions at an aggregate cost of approximately $39.6 million. The Capped Call Transactions cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, the number ofshares of Class A common stock underlying the 2030 Notes. The capped call transactions can be settled in cash or shares at the Company’s option and are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the Class A common stock upon any conversion of the 2030 Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes, as the case may be, in the event that the market price per share of the Class A common stock, as measured under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions, is greater than the strike price of the Capped Call Transactions, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. The Capped Call Transactions each have an initial strike price of approximately $11.95 per share and an initial cap price of $18.04 per share, which represents a premium of 100% over the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock on September 9, 2025, and are subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions. The Company evaluated the Capped Call Transactions and determined that they should be accounted for as separate transactions from the 2030 Notes. The costs to purchase the Capped Call Transactions were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital in the consolidated balance sheets since they are indexed to the Company’s stock and met the criteria to be classified in stockholders' equity in accordance with ASC 815-40, Contracts in Entity's Own Equity.

Performance Vesting Restricted Stock Units

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, the Company granted 190,042 performance vesting restricted stock units (“PSUs”) to certain members of the Company’s senior management. A portion of the PSUs are subject to vesting requirements related to the achievement of certain revenue and adjusted EBITDA targets for the first half of the fiscal year ended January 31,2026 and the remaining portion is subject to vesting requirements related to the achievement of certain revenue and adjusted EBITDA targets for the entire fiscal year ended January 31, 2026.

Employee Stock Purchase Program

Beginning in April 2024, the Company's eligible employees were able to begin participating in the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Program (“ESPP”). The ESPP allows eligible participants to contribute up to 10% of their eligible compensation towards the purchase of Class A common stock at a discounted price, subject to certain limitations. The purchase price of the shares on each purchase date is equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of Class A common stock on the first and last trading days of each offering period. The offerings under the ESPP are currently designed to be intended to qualify under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company estimates the fair value of each purchase right under the ESPP on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model and uses the straight-line attribution approach to record the expense over thesix-month offering period.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized related to ESPP during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025 was $1.5 million and $0.7 million, respectively. As of January 31,2026, total unrecognized compensation cost related to ESPP was $0.3 million. These costs are expected to be recognized over a period of approximately 0.2 years.

Early Exercises of Stock Options

The Legacy Incentive Plan provided for the early exercise of stock options for certain individuals as determined by the Company’s board of directors. Shares of common stock issued upon early exercises of unvested options are not deemed, for accounting purposes, to be issued until those shares vest according to their respective vesting schedules and accordingly, the consideration received for early exercises is initially recorded as a liability and reclassified to common stock and additional paid-in capital as the underlying awards vest. Stock options that are early exercised are subject to a repurchase option that allows the Company to repurchase within ninety days of an individual’s termination for any reason, any unvested shares of such individual for a repurchase price equal to the lesser of the then-current fair market value of a share and the amount previously paid by the individual for such unvested shares. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022, the Company issued 1,838,207 shares of Class A common stock upon the early exercise of unvested stock options. As of January 31,2026, the Company had a $1.8 million liability recorded for the early exercise of unvested stock options, and the related number of unvested shares subject to repurchase was 183,820.

Earn-out Shares

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Former Planet equity award holders will have the right to receive up to 5,540,990 shares that are contingently issuable in shares of Class A common stock. The Earn-out Shares may be earnedin four equal tranches (i) when the closing price of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $15.00, $17.00, $19.00 and $21.00, over any 20 trading days within any 30 day trading period prior to December 7, 2026 or (ii) when the Company consummates a change of control transaction prior to December 7, 2026 that entitles its stockholders to receive a per share consideration of at least $15.00, $17.00, $19.00 and $21.00. Any right to Earn-out Shares that remains unvested on the first business day after five years from the closing of the Business Combination will be forfeited without any further consideration. The Earn-out Shares allocated to Former Planet equity award holders are accounted for as stock-based compensation pursuant to ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation because service must be provided through each contingent vesting condition described above.

The fair value of the Earn-out Shares allocated to Former Planet equity award holders of $45.3 million was estimated using a model based on multiple stock price paths developed through the use of a Monte Carlo simulation that incorporates into the valuation the possibility that the market condition targets may not be satisfied. Compensation expense for awards with market conditions is recognized over the requisite service period and is not reversed if the market condition is not met. The requite service period for each of thefour vesting tranches for the Earn-out Shares was derived from the median time to vest for each tranche utilizing the same simulation model that produced the fair value estimate.

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026,2,046,500 Earn-Out shares vested resulting in the issuance of Class A common stock shares. No Earn-out shares vested during the fiscal years ended January 31,2025 and 2024. As of January 31, 2026 and 2025, there were 682,809 and 2,922,188 Earn-out Shares outstanding relating to Former Planet equity award holders, respectively.

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024, the Company recognized $4.2 million of stock-based compensation expense related to the Earn-out Shares. As of January 31, 2024, there wasno remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to the Earn-out Shares.

(“VanderSat”) on December 13, 2021, the Company issued 543,391 shares of Class A common stock to an employee and former owner of VanderSat which are accounted for as stock-based compensation because the shares were subject to forfeiture based on post-acquisition time-based service vesting. The shares vested in quarterly increments overtwo years commencing on December 13, 2021. The fair value was determined to be $9.47 per share based on the quoted closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the date of the acquisition. During the fiscal years ended January 31,2024, the Company recognized $2.2 million of stock-based compensation expense related to these shares.

The Company had deferred tax assets of $358.0 million and $297.3 million before valuation allowances as of January 31,2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company assesses the realizability of its deferred tax assets and establishes a valuation allowance if it is more-likely-than-not that some or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company evaluates all available positive and negative evidence such as past operating results, future reversals of existing deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, as well as prudent and feasible tax-planning strategies. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the majority of U.S. and foreign deferred tax assets will not be realized. Accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets in these jurisdictions.

Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

The Company computes net loss per share of the Class A common stock and Class B common stock using the two-class method required for participating securities. Basic and diluted net loss per share are the same for each class of common stock because they are entitled to the same liquidation and dividend rights. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per Class A common stock and Class B common stock (amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

Basic and diluted net loss per share was the same for each period presented as the inclusion of all potential Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding would have been anti-dilutive.

The following table presents the potential common stock outstanding that was excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share of common stock as of the periods presented because including them would have been antidilutive:

On September 12, 2025, the Company issued $460.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2030 Notes. The initial conversion rate for the 2030 Notes is 83.6715 shares of Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2030 Notes. The Company applies the if-converted method in computing the effect of the 2030 Notes on diluted net income per share attributable to common shareholders. The 2030 Notes were not included for purposes of calculating the number of diluted shares outstanding as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. In connection with the issuance of the 2030 Notes, the Company entered into the Capped Call Transactions, which were not included for purposes of calculating the number of diluted shares outstanding as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. The Capped Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the Class A common stock upon any conversion of the 2030 Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes, as the case may be, in the event of the market price per share of the Class A common stock, as measured under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions, is greater than the strike price of the Capped Call Transactions, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. Refer to Note 13 "Convertible Notes" for further information.
