Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management they include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented. Operating results for the three months ended April 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2027 or any other future period.
The unaudited condensed 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.
Certain notes or other information that are normally required by U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted if they substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in connection with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 (the “2026 Form 10-K”).
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 unaudited condensed 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.
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.
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 at April 30, 2026 that the Company would incur if all parties to cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments failed completely to perform according to the terms of the contracts is $729.8 million.
Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers across various countries. One customer accounted for 33% of accounts receivable as of April 30, 2026 and January 31, 2026.
For the three months ended April 30, 2026, two customers accounted for 15% and 11% of revenue, respectively. For thethree months ended April 30, 2025, three customers accounted for 16%,14%, and 11% of revenue, 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.
Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies are included in Note 2 of its Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2026 Form 10-K.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“Topic 326”), which provides all entities with a practical expedient to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for theremaining life of current accounts receivable and contract assets. The Company adopted the new guidance effective February 1, 2026 and applied the requirements prospectively. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial results.
Recent Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, to enhance specified information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period so that investors can better understand an entity’s overall performance. Additionally, in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-01 to clarify the effective date of ASU No. 2024-03. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which revises the recognition guidance for internal-use software by eliminating the previous model based on software development stages and introducing a principles-based approach. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Revenue
Deferred Revenue
During the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized revenue of $57.9 million and $31.8 million, respectively, that had been included in deferred revenue as of January 31, 2026 and 2025, 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 $816.0 million as of April 30, 2026. The Company expects to recognize approximately 35% of the remaining performance obligations within the next 12 months, approximately 66% 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 three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company capitalized $0.5 million and $0.1 million of deferred commission expenditures to be amortized in future periods, respectively. The Company’s amortization of deferred commission expenditures was $0.5 million and $0.7 million for thethree months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As of April 30, 2026 and January 31, 2026, deferred commissions consisted of the following:
| (in thousands) | April 30, 2026 | January 31, 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Deferred commission, current | $2,089 | $1,913 |
| Deferred commission, non-current | 2,221 | 2,409 |
| Total deferred commission | $4,310 | $4,322 |
The current portion of deferred commissions are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The non-current portion of deferred commissions are included in other non-current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

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 April 30, 2026 and January 31, 2026 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 inputto 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 three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025.
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.
Public and Private Placement Warrants
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 was 95%.
Contingent Consideration for Acquisitions
The Company has recorded contingent consideration liabilities in connection with its acquisitions of Salo Sciences and Sinergise (see Note 5 of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2026 Form 10-K). 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.

Changes in fair value of the Salo Sciences contingent consideration liability for customer contract earnout payments are included within sales and marketing expenses.
Financial Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value
As of April 30, 2026, $460.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2030 Notes (as defined below) was outstanding, with an estimated fair value of $1,442.9 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 April 30, 2026 and January 31, 2026, there were no material non-financial assets recorded at fair value.

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 11), 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 three months ended April 30, 2026, the Company recognized $1.2 million of funding and incurred $1.2 million of research and development expenses in connection with the Google R&D Services Agreement. As of April 30, 2026 and 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 three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized $0.5 million and $1.7 million of funding, respectively, and incurred $0.6 million and $1.7 million of research and development expenses, respectively, in connection with the NASA CSP. As of April 30, 2026 and January 31, 2026, the Company had received a total of $31.0 million and $30.4 million, respectively, of funding in connection with the NASA CSP.

Legal Proceedings
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. Following a May 7, 2026 mediation, the parties agreed to accept a mediator’s proposal to settle the litigation, pending finalized definitive settlement documents and final court approval hearing. 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 condensed consolidated balance sheets as of April 30, 2026 and 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 entered into a formal settlement agreement on May 11, 2026 and resolved all outstanding claims between them. The Company recorded an accrual for this matter reflected within accrued and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of April 30, 2026 and 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.
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.

Warrants
Public and Private Placement Warrants
In connection with dMY IV’s initial public offering, which occurred on March 9, 2021, dMY IV issued 34,500,000 units, each unit consisting ofone share of Class A common stock of dMY IV and one-fifth ofone redeemable warrant, at a price of $10.00 per unit. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchaseone share of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (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”). Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable forone share of Class A common stock at $11.50 per share.
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”). The 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. Any right to Private Placement Vesting Warrants 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.
During the three months ended April 30, 2026, the requirements for the last of the four vesting tranches were met, resulting in the vesting of 741,666 Private Placement Vesting Warrants. During thethree months ended April 30, 2026, the Company issued 1,715,183 shares of Class A common stock from exercises of Private Placement Warrants on a cashless basis at an exercise price of $11.50 per share.
On March 27, 2026, the Company announced the redemption of all of its outstanding Public Warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A common stock that were issued under the warrant agreement, dated March 4, 2021 (the “Warrant Agreement”), by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and that remained unexercised at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 27, 2026 (the “Redemption Date”) for the redemption price of $0.01 per Public Warrant (the “Public Warrant Redemption”). During the three months ended April 30, 2026, the Company issued 9,374,075 shares of Class A common stock from exercises of Public Warrants at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of $107.8 million. As of the Redemption Date,71,310 Public Warrants remained unexercised and were redeemed for an immaterial aggregate redemption price. Trading of the Public Warrants on the NYSE was suspended prior to the market open on April 27, 2026, and the warrants were delisted.
As of April 30, 2026, there wereno Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants outstanding. As of January 31, 2026, there were 9,445,385 Public Warrants and 2,966,667 Private Placement Warrants, including 741,666 Private Placement Vesting Warrants, outstanding.
Warrants to Purchase Class A common stock

As of April 30, 2026, the outstanding warrants have a weighted average remaining term of 3.9 years.

Convertible Notes
2030 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 April 30, 2026.
As of April 30, 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. As of May 1, 2026, the conditional conversion feature of the 2030 Notes was triggered as the last reported sale price of our Class A common stock was more than or equal to 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on April 30, 2026 (the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter), and therefore the 2030 Notes are convertible, in whole or in part, at the option of the holders between May 1, 2026 through July 31, 2026. If any holders convert their notes early, we have the ability to settle conversions through the delivery of the Company's Class A common stock. Therefore, the 2030 Notes continue to be 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 April 30, 2026, the unamortized debt discount and issuance cost of the 2030 Notes was $12.4 million. As of April 30, 2026, the effective interest rate of the 2030 Notes is
1.13%. For thethree months ended April 30, 2026, interest expense related to the 2030 Notes consisted of the following:
| (in thousands) | Three Months Ended April 30, 2026 |
|---|---|
| Contractual interest expense | $575 |
| Amortization of debt discount and issuance costs | 685 |
| Total interest expense | $1,260 |
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 of shares 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 unaudited condensed 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.

Related Party Transactions
As of April 30, 2026 and January 31, 2026, Google held 35,248,893 and 34,422,330 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, respectively, and, as such, owned greater than 10% of outstanding shares of the Company’s Class A common stock.

Performance Vesting Restricted Stock Units
During the three months ended April 30, 2026, the Company granted 13,970 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, 2027, 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, 2027.

As of April 30, 2026, total unrecognized compensation cost related to PSUs was $0.3 million, which is expected to be recognized over a period of approximately 0.9 years.
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.
During the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized $0.6 million and $0.3 million of stock-based compensation expense related to the ESPP, respectively. As of April 30, 2026, total unrecognized compensation cost related to ESPP was $1.4 million. These costs are expected to be recognized over a period of approximately 0.4 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. As of April 30, 2026, the Company had a $0.9 million liability recorded for the early exercise of unvested stock options, and the related number of unvested shares subject to repurchase was 91,910.
Earn-out Shares
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Former Planet equity award holders will have the right to receive Earn-out Shares that are contingently issuable in shares of Class A common stock.

For the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, the income tax expense was primarily driven by the current tax on foreign earnings.

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):
| Three Months Ended April 30, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 2025 | |
| Numerator: | ||
| Net loss attributable to common stockholders | $(138,872) | $(12,628) |
| Denominator: | ||
| Basic and diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding used in computing net loss per share attributable to common stockholders | 345,524,328 | 300,267,952 |
| Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders | $(0.40) | $(0.04) |
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:
| As of April 30, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 2025 | |
| Warrants to purchase Class A common stock | 1,065,594 | 1,065,594 |
| Common stock options | 13,670,828 | 22,346,098 |
| Restricted Stock Units | 27,596,999 | 38,549,042 |

| If-converted common shares from 2030 Notes | 38,488,890 | — |
| Total | 80,949,121 | 100,702,198 |
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 10 "Convertible Notes" for further information.
