Current report

Sales of shares of our Class A common stock under our at-the-market equity offering program have caused, and may continue to cause, dilution to our stockholders, and could adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock.

Current report

On June 5, 2026, we entered into the June 2026 Equity Distribution Agreement with the Sales Agents, the Forward Purchasers and the Forward Sellers, pursuant to which we may offer and sell shares of our Class A common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $1.5 billion from time to time through or to the Sales Agents, acting as our agents or as principals, or through the Forward Sellers in connection with any Range Forward Transaction we may enter into with a Forward Purchaser. For the three months ended July 31, 2026, the Company sold 3,782,460 shares of Class A common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $122.4 million, before deducting sales agent commissions and other offering costs of $1.6 million (see Note 10).

Current report

We are not obligated to sell any additional shares under the June 2026 Equity Distribution Agreement, and the actual number of shares we sell in the future, if any, and the timing and prices of any such sales, will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions and our capital needs. Because sales under this program, if any, are made in “at-the-market” offerings, investors who purchase shares at different times will likely pay different prices and may experience different levels of dilution. The issuance and sale of additional shares under this program, whether directly by us through the Sales Agents or through the settlement of any Range Forward Transaction, will dilute the ownership interests of our existing stockholders and could be dilutive to our earnings per share. In addition, the sale of shares under this program, or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock and could make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital through future offerings of equity or equity-linked securities on favorable terms, or at all.

Current report

If we enter into a Range Forward Transaction during the term of the June 2026 Equity Distribution Agreement, we will be subject to risks relating to hedging activities, settlement obligations, early termination rights and counterparty credit risk associated with that transaction.

Current report

The June 2026 Equity Distribution Agreement permits us to enter into Range Forward Transactions with the Forward Purchasers, under which the relevant Forward Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to borrow, and through its affiliated Forward Seller sell, shares of our Class A common stock to hedge its position. This hedging activity could increase, decrease or have no effect on the market price of our Class A common stock. We expect that settlement of any Range Forward Transaction generally will occur on the settlement dates specified in the applicable Range Forward Sale Agreement. We also expect that any Range Forward Transaction will be physically settled by delivery of shares of our Class A common stock, delivery of which would result in dilution to our earnings per share and return on equity.

Current report

The relevant Forward Purchaser may also terminate a Range Forward Transaction early upon specified events and require us to unwind the transaction (or a portion thereof) by delivering shares or at our election, in certain cases and subject to certain conditions, paying cash. Any Range Forward Transaction will also terminate automatically upon certain bankruptcy or insolvency events involving us, in which case we would not receive the proceeds we otherwise expected from that transaction. We will also be subject to the risk that a Forward Purchaser defaults on, or is otherwise unable to perform, its obligations to us, including as a result of its own insolvency.

Previous wording

We generated net losses of $138.9 million and $12.6 million for the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As of April 30, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of $1,588.7 million. Although we have seen revenue growth in recent periods, we have not achieved profitability and we may not realize sufficient revenue to achieve or maintain profitability in future periods. If we are unable to achieve and maintain profitability on a GAAP basis, the value of our business may significantly decrease. Our efforts to grow our business may cost more than we expect, or the rate of our growth may be slower than we expect, and we may not be able to increase our revenue enough to offset our increased operating expenses. Further, in future periods, our revenue growth could slow or decline for a number of reasons, including slowing demand for our offerings, increased competition from new market entrants and alternative data sources, changes to technology or regulation, a decrease in the growth of our overall market, slower than expected revenue recognition from our satellite services contracts, or our failure, for any reason, to continue to take advantage of growth opportunities.

Previous wording

Delays in launching satellites are common and can result from satellite manufacturing delays, unavailability of reliable launch opportunities with suppliers, launch supplier schedule delays, delays in obtaining required regulatory approvals and launch failures. If we do not meet our satellite manufacturing schedules, a launch opportunity may not be available at the time the satellites are ready to be launched. We also share launches with other satellite manufacturers who may cause launch delays that are outside of our control. There are a limited number operational of launch suppliers and increasing demand for launch slots, which may heighten the foregoing risks to the extent any of such launch suppliers changes their terms or otherwise experiences capacity constraints. In addition, launch vehicles or satellite deployment mechanisms may fail, which could result in the destruction of any satellites we have in such launch vehicle or an inability for the satellites to perform their intended mission. Launch failures also result in significant delays in the deployment of satellites because of the need to manufacture replacement satellites, which typically takes up to six months or longer, and to obtain another launch opportunity, and may impact the timing of future launches. If we are required to replace a satellite that was damaged during launch, we may bear some or all of the costs of manufacturing replacement satellites, which could result in lost revenue and contractual penalties. Further, the cost of satellite launches, launch insurance rates and launch-related services may significantly increase in the future, which could make it much more costly, potentially prohibitively more costly, for us to launch and deploy our satellites. Any launch failure, underperformance, delay, or increase in the cost of satellite launches or related services, could have a material and adverse effect on our results of operations, business prospects and financial condition.

Previous wording

We operate an extensive ground infrastructure, including over a dozen ground stations maintained by third parties. These ground stations are used for controlling our satellites and our customers’ satellites and downloading imagery to eventually be provided to our customers. We may experience a partial or total loss of one or more of these facilities due to natural disasters (tornado, earthquake, flood, hurricane or other natural events), fire, acts of war or terrorism or other catastrophic events. A failure at any of these facilities could cause a significant loss of service for our customers. Additionally, we may experience a failure in the necessary equipment at our satellite control center, at any relevant back-up facility, or in the communication links between these facilities and remote teleport facilities. A failure or operator error affecting tracking, telemetry and control operations might lead to a breakdown in the ability to communicate with one or more satellites or cause the transmission of incorrect instructions to the affected satellites, which could lead to a temporary or permanent degradation in satellite performance or to the loss of one or more satellites. Intentional or non-intentional electromagnetic or radio frequency interference or cybersecurity attacks, including by nation-state actors or their agents, could result in a failure of our ability to deliver our services to our customers. We have experienced a variety of these equipment and communications failures from time to time, resulting in impacted services. A failure at any of our facilities or in the communications links between our facilities or interference with our satellite signal could cause our revenues to decline materially and could adversely affect our ability to market our services and harm our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

As part of our business strategy, we may make investments in complementary companies, products or technologies, and these acquisitions could pose challenges or risks. In this regard, we have made strategic acquisitions, including the acquisition of the BlackBridge group of companies in September 2015, the Terra Bella business from Google in April 2017, Boundless Spatial in March 2019, VanderSat in December 2021, Salo Sciences in January 2023, Sinergise in August 2023, and Bedrock in November 2025. We do not know if we will be able to complete any future acquisitions or successfully integrate any acquired business, operate it profitably or retain its key employees, customers, partners or vendors. Integrating any newly acquired business, product or technology could be expensive and time-consuming, could disrupt our ongoing business and financial performance, and could distract our management. If we fail to successfully integrate the assets, technologies and employees from any acquired business, our revenue and operating results could be adversely affected. Any integration process will require significant time and resources, and we may not be able to manage the process successfully. We may not successfully evaluate or utilize the acquired technology and accurately forecast the financial impact of an acquisition transaction, including accounting charges. Further, any debt we incur to complete an acquisition could result in increased fixed obligations and include certain covenants that could impede our ability to manage our operations. Alternatively, if we use equity to finance any acquisitions, it could dilute our current stockholders. We may become liable for certain unforeseen pre-acquisition liabilities of an acquired business, including, but not limited to, successor liability for actions or noncompliance of an acquired business prior to such acquisition.

If we use open source software inconsistent with our policies and procedures or the license terms applicable to such software, we could be subject to demands to release portions of our source code, legal expenses, damages, or costly remediation or disruption to our business.

Current wording

Previous wording

We use open source software in our platform. From time to time, companies that use open source software have faced claims challenging the use of such open source software and their compliance with the terms of the applicable open source license. We may be subject to suits by parties claiming ownership of what we believe to be open source software or claiming non-compliance with the applicable open source licensing terms. Additionally, while we have policies and procedures in place designed to govern our use of open source software, there is a risk that we may incorporate open source software with onerous licensing terms, including the obligation to make our source code available for others to use or modify without compensation to us, or inadvertently use open source software in a manner that exposes us to claims of non-compliance with the applicable terms of such license, including claims for infringement of intellectual property rights or for breach of contract. If we receive an allegation that we have violated an open source license, we may incur significant legal expenses, be subject to damages, be required to redesign our product to remove the open source software or publicly release certain portions of our proprietary source code, or be required to comply with onerous license restrictions, all of which could have a material impact on our business. Even in the absence of a claim, if we discover the use of open source software inconsistent with our policies, we could expend significant time and resources to replace the open source software or obtain a commercial license, if available. All of these risks are heightened by the fact that the ownership of open source software can be uncertain, leading to litigation, and many of the licenses applicable to open source software have not been interpreted by courts, and these licenses could be construed to impose unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our ability to commercialize our products. Any use of open source software inconsistent with our policies or licensing terms could harm our business and financial position.

The availability and cost to us of external financing depend on a number of factors, including our financial performance and general market conditions, including any impact of national or global health concerns, inflation or high interest rates, bank and financial institution stability or other global events that may have an effect on general market conditions or the capital markets specifically. Declines in our expected future revenues under contracts with customers and challenging business conditions faced by our customers are among the other factors that may adversely affect our credit and access to the capital markets. Other factors that could impact the availability and cost to us of external financing include the amount of debt in our current or future capital structure, activities associated with strategic initiatives, the health of our satellites, the success or failure of our planned launches, our expected future cash flows and the capital expenditures required to execute our business strategy. The overall impact on our financial condition of any transaction that we pursue may be negative or may be negatively perceived by potential lenders and may result in less access to the capital markets. Long-term disruptions in the capital or credit markets as a result of uncertainty or recession, changing or increased regulation or failures of significant financial institutions could adversely affect our access to capital. A deterioration in our financial performance or general market conditions could limit our ability to obtain financing or could result in any such financing being available only at greater cost or on more restrictive terms than might otherwise be available and, in either case, could result in our deferring or reducing capital expenditures including on new or replacement satellites. In addition, sustained or increased economic weaknesses or pressures or new economic conditions may limit our ability to generate sufficient internal cash to fund investments, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other strategic transactions and/or the development, design, acquisition and construction of new satellites. We cannot predict with any certainty whether or not we will be impacted by economic conditions. As a result, these conditions make it difficult for us to accurately forecast and plan future business activities because we may not have access to funding sources necessary for us to pursue organic and strategic business development opportunities.

Due to the size and nature of some of our contracts, especially our large-scale satellite services contracts, the estimation of total revenues, timing of revenue recognition, and cost at completion is complicated and subject to many variables. Assumptions have to be made regarding the length of time to complete the contract or program because costs also include expected increases in wages and employee benefits, material prices and allocated fixed costs. Because of the significance of the judgments and estimation processes described above, materially different revenues and profit amounts could be recorded if we used different assumptions, revised our estimates, or if the underlying circumstances were to change. Changes in underlying assumptions, circumstances or estimates may adversely affect future period financial performance.

We are subject to a wide variety of laws and regulations relating to various aspects of our business, including employment and labor, licensing, export, import, sanctions, anti-bribery/anti-corruption, tax, privacy and data security, health and safety, communications, and environmental matters. Laws and regulations at the foreign, federal, state and local levels frequently change, especially in relation to new and emerging industries, and we cannot always reasonably estimate the impact from, or the ultimate cost of compliance with, current or future regulatory or administrative changes. In particular, our industry is highly regulated due to the sensitive nature of satellite technology. The laws and regulations, and interpretations thereof, governing our business and operations, including the collection and distribution of satellite imagery and associated analytics and services, are likely to change in the future. Additionally, there are certain environmental risks involved in the operation of our ground stations, manufacturing of our satellites and potential for orbital debris. To the extent that governments impose restrictions or additional regulations, or new interpretations or applications of existing laws, to address regulation of satellite technology, sale of satellite hardware and managed operations services, distribution of satellite imagery or services, or any environmental concerns regarding our business activities, we may be required to alter our business operations to comply with such changes. Our ability to sell our offerings on a global basis may also be reduced or restricted due to increased U.S., E.U. or other government regulations or other government actions or unpredictable application of existing laws and regulations to novel offerings. This risk is heightened by the geopolitical relevance of our data, which can shed light on sensitive operations around the globe, as well as the sensitive nature of our customer base, which include various government agencies. Moreover, we may face lawsuits or incur liability as a result of the imagery and/or analytics/insights we make available through our offerings. In any of these cases, our business and operating results may be materially and adversely affected.

Shares of our Class B common stock have 20 votes per share, while shares of our Class A common stock have one vote per share. William Marshall and Robert Schingler, Jr. (the “Planet Founders”) hold all of the issued and outstanding shares of our Class B common stock. Accordingly, the Planet Founders hold over approximately 62% of the voting power of our capital stock and are able to control matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors, many amendments of our organizational documents and many transactions involving a merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of our assets or other major corporate transaction. The Planet Founders may have interests that differ from yours and may vote in a way with which you disagree and which may be adverse to your interests. This concentrated control may have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control of Planet, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their capital stock as part of a sale of Planet, and might ultimately affect the market price of shares of our Class A common stock.

Our Charter provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, any (i) derivative action, suit or proceeding brought on our behalf; (ii) action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our current or former directors, officers, stockholders or employees to Planet or our stockholders; (iii) action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, our Charter or our Bylaws (as either may be amended from time to time); (iv) action, suit or proceeding as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Delaware Court or (v) any action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim against us or any of our current or former directors, officers or stockholders governed by the internal affairs doctrine, shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be exclusively brought in the Delaware Court or, if such court does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware or other state courts of the State of Delaware. The exclusive forum provision described in the foregoing sentence does not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts of the United States have exclusive jurisdiction. Our Charter further provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States are the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action under the Securities Act. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring an interest in any shares of our securities shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the exclusive forum provisions in our Charter. These choice-of-forum provisions may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that he, she or it believes to be favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees, which may discourage such lawsuits. We note that there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce these provisions and that investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for state and federal courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

On September 12, 2025, we issued $460.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 0.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030, which mature on October 15, 2030 (the “2030 Notes”). Prior to July 15, 2030, the 2030 Notes are convertible at the option of the holders only under certain conditions or upon the occurrence of certain events. As of April 30, 2026, the conditions allowing holders of the 2030 Notes to convert were not 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 currently convertible, in whole or in part, at the option of the holders between May 1, 2026 through July 31, 2026. After July 15, 2030, holders may convert all or any portion of their 2030 Notes at their option at any time. If one or more holders elect to convert their 2030 Notes when eligible, unless we elect to deliver solely shares of our Class A common stock to settle such conversion (other than paying cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share), we will be required to make cash payments in respect of the 2030 Notes being converted.
