Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF PLANET

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") is intended to help the reader understand the results of operations and financial condition of Planet Labs PBC. The MD&A is provided as a supplement to and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Part I, Item I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as our audited annual consolidated financial statements and related notes as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 (the "2026 Form 10-K"). This discussion contains forward-looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those described in Part II, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in this Quarterly Report. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any period in the future.

Business and Overview

Our mission is to use space to help life on Earth, by imaging the world every day and making global change visible, accessible, and actionable. Our products include imagery, insights, and machine learning that empower companies, governments, and communities around the world to make timely decisions about our evolving world. In addition, our satellite services arrangements provide a broad spectrum of advanced offerings to large scale government and enterprise customers, including designing and manufacturing customer-owned satellites. We also provide critical related services in these satellite services arrangements such as reliable mission systems engineering, launch procurement, ground station infrastructure, satellite operations, and maintenance. Separately, we provide dedicated image tasking capacity on Company owned or customer owned satellites.

As a public benefit corporation, our purpose is to accelerate humanity toward a more sustainable, secure, and prosperous world, by illuminating the most important forms of environmental and social change.

We deliver a differentiated data set: a new image of the entire Earth's landmass, constantly refreshed. To collect this powerful data set, we design, build and operate over one hundred satellites. Our daily stream of proprietary data and machine learning analytics, delivered through our cloud-native platform, helps companies, governments and civil society use satellite imagery to discover insights as change happens.

To help further our mission, we have developed advanced satellite technology that increases the cost performance of each satellite. This has enabled us to launch large fleets of satellites at lower cost and in turn record over 3,000 images on average for every point on Earth's landmass, a non-replicable historical archive that can power analytics, machine learning, and insights. We have advanced data processing capabilities that enable us to produce "AI-ready" data sets and have partnered with third-parties to offer AI-enabled data solutions. As these data sets continue to grow and we continue to develop these partnerships, we believe the value of our data and analytics solutions to our customers will further increase. Our innovation in agile aerospace has also enabled us to improve the cost-performance of satellite manufacturing, ground stations, and mission operations.

We currently serve customers across civil government, commercial and defense and intelligence verticals, including agriculture, mapping, energy, forestry, finance and insurance, as well as federal, civil, state, and local governments. Our customers in government and commercial markets leverage our product capabilities to monitor and manage global change over broad areas to take action.

Our proprietary data set and analytics are delivered pursuant to subscription and usage-based data licensing agreements and are accessed by our customers through our online platform and subscription APIs. We believe our efficient cost structure, one-to-many business model and differentiated data set have enabled the growth of our business.

Complementing our foundational data offerings, our strategy is evolving towards delivering more integrated downstream solutions. This shift is designed to capture a broader base of customers and strengthen our market leadership by providing more direct and actionable solutions. In addition, our innovative satellite services model, as demonstrated with recent customer agreements, represents a new approach to how we fund and monetize our next-generation satellite fleets. This model is expected to further align our offerings with market demand and enhance our ability to capture value as we scale our business operations.

Our Business Model

We primarily generate revenue through selling licenses to our data and analytics to customers over a cloud-based platform via fixed price subscription and usage-based contracts. Data licensing subscriptions and minimum commitment usage-based contracts provide a large recurring revenue base for our business with a low incremental cost to serve each additional customer. Payment terms of our customer agreements are most commonly in advance on an either quarterly or annual basis, although a small number of large contracts have required payment terms that are monthly or quarterly in arrears. We also generate a small amount of revenue from sales of third-party imagery, professional services, and customer support. Additionally, we generate revenue through satellite services agreements in which we build and operate satellites owned by the customer. Satellite services arrangements address a broad spectrum of needs for our customers, including mission systems engineering, spacecraft design and manufacturing, launch procurement, ground station operations, satellite operations, and maintenance. Separately, we provide dedicated image tasking capacity on Company owned or customer owned satellites.

We employ a "land-and-expand" go-to-market strategy with the goal to deliver increasing value to our customers and generate more revenue with each customer over time by expanding the scope of the services we offer. We work closely with our customers and partners to enable their early success, both from an account management and technical management perspective. Deeper adoption from our customers comes in many forms, including more users, more area coverage, and more advanced software analytics capabilities.

Key elements of our growth strategy include:

Scaling in Existing Verticals

We have invested in our sales and marketing efforts to address the vertical markets in which we operate, as well as in software solutions to expand within our existing customer base. We plan to further penetrate vertical markets in which end users are early adopters of geospatial data, such as civil government, agriculture, and defense and intelligence through targeted sales and marketing activities and continued investment in new solutions for these verticals.

Expansion into New Verticals and Applications

We plan to invest in our offerings to make our data more actionable and accessible to a larger group of customers and users, including non-geospatial experts such as data and business analysts in government and commercial organizations. We believe this will help us address use cases in key emerging markets such as energy, infrastructure, finance, insurance, and consumer packaged goods. We also intend to partner with companies building vertical market solutions, such as independent software vendors, as well as business intelligence and analytics providers. While we have customers and partners today in many of these verticals, we believe enhancing our data to meet their needs has the potential to accelerate the proliferation of our data and analytics usage across more end users. Additionally, we currently have multiple partners with solutions that rapidly generate insights for their customers using our licensed proprietary data and Planet Analytics or their AI technology. Their capabilities include training models on our proprietary data to find any object of interest to a user over broad areas of land or sea. We believe recent and ongoing industry advancements in AI will support making our datasets more accessible to customers and users across new and existing verticals by speeding customer time to value through these capabilities.

Continued Investment in Data Products and Solutions

We plan to scale and expand our existing products and solutions, by building on our machine learning and computer vision capabilities with remote sensing techniques to fuse multiple data sources. These products allow our customers to consume simple, actionable time-series data within their existing workflows. We intend to create many of these key data sets internally, as well as in collaboration with our partners who have deep vertical expertise.

Establish Platform Ecosystem

We plan to further develop our ecosystem of users and partners to build solutions leveraging our data and platform and to build software tools and APIs that make it even easier to do so. By developing a robust applications ecosystem, we believe we can create a network effect, potentially accelerating our growth and deepening our market penetration.

New Sensors & Data Sets

We plan to make strategic investments in building new sensors to capture additional data sets from space. As we grow our customer base and the use cases we can address, we believe we can better understand what additional data sets our customers are eager to access and therefore which sensors might enable us to capture additional data that is valuable to such customers. By leveraging our agile aerospace approach to space systems, we believe we are well-positioned to introduce new Earth observation sensors into orbit to capture new types of data with greater capital efficiency and speed than other satellite data providers. Having these capabilities can deepen our value proposition to customers and help us both acquire new customers and expand our offering to existing customers.

Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

We believe that our financial condition and results of operations have been, and will continue to be, affected by a number of factors that present significant opportunities for us but also pose risks and challenges, including those discussed below in Part II, Item 1A "Risk Factors" of this Quarterly Report.

Continuing to Acquire New Customers

Attracting new customers is an important factor affecting our future growth and operating performance. We believe our ability to attract customers will be driven by our agile aerospace capabilities, which allow for the rapid development and deployment of satellite hardware to ensure a consistent data supply that differentiates our offerings from traditional aerospace models. By leveraging these unique hardware advantages alongside recent advances in artificial intelligence, we are able to make our extensive data sets more accessible and actionable for customers. Our integration of AI-driven automated detection and feature extraction transforms imagery into "analytic-ready" insights, effectively lowering the barrier to entry for our customers. We have also made our data available for purchase directly through our Planet Insights Platform, which facilitates rapid user adoption by empowering users to self-service our solutions without formal sales interaction. We believe this serves as a natural entry point for some of our smaller accounts, enabling them to realize the value of Planet's offerings and leading to broader awareness of our solutions throughout their organizations.

In addition, we plan to continue investing in making our data more digestible and accessible to non-technical business users and to build solutions to address more use cases and expand our addressable market. As a result of this strategy, we anticipate continuing to invest in our research and development. We will also aim to expand our reach with customers by partnering with independent software vendors and solution providers who are building vertical market-specific solutions. While we have customers and partners today in many markets, we believe that our increased investment in developing software analytics solutions has the potential to accelerate the usage of our data and analytics across broader audiences. Additionally, the timing of securing new customer contracts, including when it occurs during the year and the length of the sales cycle, as well as the size of the contracts, can impact our operating performance.

Retention and Expansion of Existing Customers

To increase customer retention and expansion of revenue from existing customers, we are making a number of investments in our operations. Customer retention and expansion is driven by the speed with which our customers realize the value of our data once they become customers, our ability to cross-sell our different products to our existing customers and our ability to offer new products to our customers. Therefore, to increase customer retention and sales to existing customers, we have invested in our customer success function, continuous improvements to our existing data, and the software tools and analytic tools that make our data easier to consume. As a result of such investments, we anticipate our cost of revenue, operating expenses, and capital expenditures may increase as we continue to prioritize customer retention and expansion.

Investment Decisions

We regularly review our existing customers and target markets to determine where we should invest in our product and technology roadmap, both for our space systems engineering to enable new geospatial coverage models, as well as our software engineering focused on providing sophisticated analytics models and tools to service an expanding set of markets and use cases. Our financial performance relies heavily on effective balance between driving continued growth, maintaining technology leadership, and improving margins across the business.

Seasonality

We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, seasonality in our business and fluctuations in our operating results due to customer behavior, buying patterns and usage-based contracts. For example, we typically have customers who increase their usage of our data services when they need more frequent data monitoring over broader areas during peak agricultural seasons, during natural disasters or other global events, or when commodity prices are at certain levels. These customers may expand their usage and then subsequently scale back. We believe that the seasonal trends that we have experienced in the past may occur in the future. To the extent that we experience seasonality, it may impact our operating results and financial metrics, as well as our ability to forecast future operating results and financial metrics. Additionally, when we introduce new products to the market, we may not have sufficient experience in selling certain products to determine if demand for these products is or will be subject to material seasonality.

Key Operational and Business Metrics

In addition to the measures presented in our consolidated financial statements, we use the following key operational and business metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, develop financial forecasts, and make strategic decisions.

ACV and EoP ACV Book of Business

In connection with the calculation of several of the key operational and business metrics we utilize, we calculate Annual Contract Value ("ACV") for contracts of one year or greater as the total amount of value that a customer has contracted to pay for the most recent 12 month period for the contract. ACV includes imagery licensing arrangements, data solutions, and dedicated image tasking capacity but excludes customers that are exclusively Planet Insights Platform (which has integrated the former Sentinel Hub platform) self-service paying users, as well as the value of any satellite services contracts. For short-term contracts (contracts less than 12 months), ACV is equal to total contract value.

We also calculate End of Period ("EoP") ACV Book of Business in connection with the calculation of several of the key operational and business metrics we utilize. We define EoP ACV Book of Business as the sum of the ACV of all contracts that are active on the last day of the period pursuant to the effective dates and end dates of such contracts, excluding customers that are exclusively Planet Insights Platform self-service paying users, as well as the value of any satellite services contracts. Active contracts exclude any contract that has been canceled, expired prior to the last day of the period without renewing, or for any other reason is not expected to generate revenue in the subsequent period. For contracts ending on the last day of the period, the ACV is either updated to reflect the ACV

of the renewed contract or, if the contract has not yet renewed or extended, the ACV is excluded from the EoP ACV Book of Business. We do not annualize short-term contracts in calculating our EoP ACV Book of Business. We calculate the ACV of usage-based contracts based on the committed contracted revenue or the revenue achieved on the usage-based contract in the prior 12-month period.

Net Dollar Retention Rate

We define Net Dollar Retention Rate as the percentage of ACV generated by existing customers in a given period as compared to the ACV of all contracts at the beginning of the fiscal year from the same set of existing customers. We define existing customers as customers with an active contract with Planet. We believe our Net Dollar Retention Rate is a useful metric for investors as it can be used to measure our ability to retain and grow revenue generated from our existing customers, on which our ability to drive long-term growth and profitability is, in part, dependent. We use Net Dollar Retention Rate to assess customer adoption of new products, inform opportunities to make improvements across our products, identify opportunities to improve operations, and manage go to market functions, as well as to understand how much future growth may come from cross-selling and up-selling customers. Management applies judgment in determining the value of active contracts in a given period, as set forth in the definition of ACV above. Net Dollar Retention Rate increased to 113% for the three months ended April 30, 2026, as compared to 103% for the three months ended April 30, 2025, primarily due to large defense and intelligence contract expansions.

Net Dollar Retention Rate including Winbacks

We assess two metrics for net dollar retention-Net Dollar Retention Rate, as described above, and Net Dollar Retention Rate including winbacks. A winback is a previously existing customer that was inactive at the start of the measurement period but has reactivated during the measurement period. The reactivation period must be within 24 months from the last active contract with the customer; otherwise, the customer is counted as a new customer and therefore excluded from the retention rate metrics. We define Net Dollar Retention Rate including winbacks as the percentage of ACV generated by existing customers and winbacks in a given period as compared to the ACV of all contracts at the beginning of the fiscal year from the same set of existing customers. We believe this metric is useful to investors as it captures the value of customer contracts that resume business with Planet after being inactive and thereby provides a quantification of Planet's ability to recapture lost business. Management uses this metric to understand the adoption of our products and long-term customer retention, as well as the success of marketing campaigns and sales initiatives in re-engaging inactive customers. Beyond the judgments underlying managements' calculation of Net Dollar Retention Rate set forth above, there are no additional assumptions or estimates made in connection with Net Dollar Retention Rate including winbacks. Net Dollar Retention Rate including winbacks increased to 114% for the three months ended April 30, 2026, as compared to 104% for the three months ended April 30, 2025, primarily due to large defense and intelligence contract expansions.

Percent of Recurring ACV

Percent of Recurring ACV is the portion of the total EoP ACV Book of Business that is recurring in nature. We define ACV Book of Business as the sum of the ACV of all contracts that are active on the last day of the period pursuant to the effective dates and end dates of such contracts. ACV includes imagery licensing arrangements, data solutions, and dedicated image tasking capacity but excludes customers that are exclusively Planet Insights Platform (which has integrated the former Sentinel Hub platform) self-service paying users, as well as the value of any satellite services contracts. We define Percent of Recurring ACV as the dollar value of all data subscription contracts and the committed portion of usage-based contracts (excluding customers that are exclusively Planet Insights Platform self-service paying users) divided by the total dollar value of all contracts in our EoP ACV Book of Business. We believe Percent of Recurring ACV is useful to investors to better understand how much of our revenue is from customers that have the potential to renew their contracts over multiple years rather than being one-time in nature. We track Percent of Recurring ACV to inform estimates for the future revenue growth potential of our business and improve the predictability of our financial results. There are no significant estimates underlying management's calculation of Percent of Recurring ACV, but management applies judgment as to which customers have an active contract at a period end for the purpose of determining EoP ACV Book of Business, which is used as part of the calculation of Percent of Recurring ACV. Percent of Recurring ACV increased to 99% for the three months ended April 30, 2026, as compared to 97% for the three months ended April 30, 2025, primarily due to large defense and intelligence contract expansions.

Capital Expenditures as a Percentage of Revenue

We define capital expenditures as purchases of property and equipment plus capitalized internally developed software development costs, which are included in our statements of cash flows from investing activities. We define Capital Expenditures as a Percentage of Revenue as the total amount of capital expenditures divided by total revenue in the reported period. Capital Expenditures as a Percentage of Revenue is a performance measure that we use to evaluate the appropriate level of capital expenditures needed to support demand for our data services and related revenue, and to provide a comparable view of our performance relative to other earth observation companies, which may invest significantly greater amounts in their satellites to deliver their data to customers. We use an agile space systems strategy, which means we invest in a larger number of significantly lower cost satellites and software infrastructure to automate the management of the satellites and to deliver our data to clients. As a result of our strategy and our business model, our capital expenditures may be more similar to software companies with large data center infrastructure costs. Therefore, we believe it is important to look at our level of capital expenditure investments relative to revenue when evaluating our performance relative to other earth observation companies or to other software and data companies with significant data center infrastructure investment requirements. We believe Capital Expenditures as a Percentage of Revenue is a useful metric for investors because it provides visibility to the level of capital expenditures required to operate our business and our relative capital efficiency. Capital Expenditures as a Percentage of Revenue increased to 19% for the three months ended April 30, 2026, as compared to 14% for the three months ended April 30, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in capitalized labor and material related to the build of our next generation high resolution Pelican satellites and our medium resolution satellites. We expect our capital expenditures to continue to increase in the foreseeable future through purchases of property and equipment as we seek to grow the number of internal-use satellites in orbit. Additionally, working capital is expected to increase as we purchase raw materials inventories intended for customer-owned satellites.

Components of Results of Operations

Revenue

We derive revenue principally from licensing rights to use our imagery, dedicated capacity, data solutions and satellite services arrangements. These agreements vary by contract, however, generally they have annual or multi-year contractual terms and typically billed in advance either quarterly or annually. Imagery licensing and data

solutions are delivered digitally through our online platform in addition to providing related services. Imagery licensing agreements vary by contract, but generally have annual or multi-year contractual terms. The data licenses are generally purchased via a fixed price contract on a subscription or usage basis, whereby a customer pays for access to our imagery or derived imagery data, delivered by Planet or through partners, which may be downloaded over a specific period of time, or, less frequently, on a transactional basis, whereby the customer pays for individual content licenses. Additionally, we derive revenue through satellite services agreements in which we build and operate satellites owned by the customer. Satellite services contracts generally have fixed price, multi-year contractual terms.

We also provide a small amount of other services to customers, including professional services such as training, analytical services, and other value-added activities related to our imagery, data and technology. 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 and analytics contracts. Training revenues are recognized as the services are performed.

Cost of Revenue

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 our satellites and ground stations, amortization of acquired intangibles and 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 includes costs from professional services, including costs paid to subcontractors, solution partners and certain third-party fees.

We expect cost of revenue to continue to increase as we invest in our delivery organization, build and launch satellites for customers that have purchased satellite services, incorporate third-party products into our solutions and introduce future product sets that may require higher compute capacity. As we continue to grow our subscription revenue contracts and increase the revenue associated with our analytic capabilities, we anticipate further economies of scale on our satellites and other infrastructure costs as we incur lower marginal cost with each new customer we add to our platform.

Research and Development

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. Funding for our performance of research and development services under certain arrangements are recognized as a reduction of research and development expenses based on a cost incurred method.

We continue to iterate on the design of our satellites and the capabilities of our automated operations to optimize for efficiency and technical capability of each satellite. Costs associated with satellite and other space related research and development activities are expensed as incurred.

We intend to continue to invest in our software platform development, machine learning and analytic tools and applications and new satellite technologies for both the satellite fleet operations and data collection capabilities to drive incremental value to our existing customers and to enable us to expand our traction in emerging markets and

with new customers. As a result of the foregoing, research and development expenditures may increase in future periods.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses primarily include costs incurred to market and distribute our products. Such costs include expenses related to advertising and conferences, sales commissions, salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation for our 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.

We intend to continue to invest in our selling and marketing capabilities in the future and may increase this expense in future periods as we look to upsell new product features and expand into new market verticals. Selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of total revenue may fluctuate from period to period based on total revenue and the timing of our investments.

General and Administrative

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

We expect to continue to incur additional general and administrative expenses as a result of operating as a public company, including expenses related to compliance and reporting obligations of public companies, and increased costs for insurance, investor relations, and professional services. Our general and administrative expenses may increase in future periods and vary from period to period as a percentage of revenue, but we expect to continue to realize operating scale with respect to these expenses over time as we grow our revenue.

Interest Income

Interest income primarily consists of interest earned on our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Our cash equivalent and short-term investment portfolio is invested with a goal of preserving our access to capital, and generally consists of money market funds, commercial paper, corporate debt securities and U.S. government and U.S. government agency debt securities.

Interest Expense

Interest expense primarily consists of interest incurred on our convertible senior notes due 2030 (the "2030 Notes"), as well as the related amortization of deferred debt issuance costs for the 2030 Notes. Interest expense also includes interest incurred associated with a customer contract that contains a significant financing component.

Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liabilities

The change in fair value of warrant liabilities consists of the change in fair value of the public and private placement warrant liabilities.

Other Income (Expense), net

Other income (expense), net, consists of net gains or losses on foreign currency and certain other non-operating income and expense items.

Provision for Income Taxes

Our income tax provision consists of an estimate for U.S. federal and state income taxes, as well as those foreign jurisdictions where we have business operations, based on enacted tax rates, as adjusted for allowable credits,

deductions, uncertain tax positions, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities, and changes in the tax law. We believe that it is more likely than not that the majority of the U.S. and foreign deferred tax assets will not be realized. Accordingly, we recorded a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets in these jurisdictions.

Results of Operations

Three months ended April 30, 2026 compared to three months ended April 30, 2025

The following table sets forth a summary of our consolidated results of operations for the interim periods indicated and the changes between such periods.

Revenue

Revenue increased $27.9 million, or 42%, to $94.2 million for the three months ended April 30, 2026 from $66.3 million for the three months ended April 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by a $24.7 million increase in the defense and intelligence vertical.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue increased $14.1 million, or 47%, to $43.7 million for the three months ended April 30, 2026, from $29.7 million for the three months ended April 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $5.8 million increase in costs paid to solution partners and subcontractors, primarily related to our data solutions offerings. The increase was also partially due to a $2.6 million increase in spacecraft hardware costs and a $2.0 million increase in ground station expenses, both of which were related to fulfilling our satellite services contract performance obligations. The increase was also partially due to a $2.0 million increase in employee-related costs, due to the allocation of labor to fulfill our satellite services contract performance obligations and a $1.2 million increase in hosting costs.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased $10.3 million, or 45%, to $33.4 million for the three months ended April 30, 2026, from $23.1 million for the three months ended April 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $6.3 million increase in employee-related costs, primarily due to increased headcount. The increase was also partially due to a $1.6 million increase in stock-based compensation expense and a $1.5 million increase in spacecraft hardware costs for research and development activities.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses increased $6.5 million, or 40%, to $22.8 million, for the three months ended April 30, 2026, from $16.3 million for the three months ended April 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $3.0 million increase in employee-related costs, primarily due to increased headcount. The increase was also partially due to a $1.2 million increase in stock-based compensation expense and a $0.9 million increase in sales commissions expense.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses increased $9.1 million, or 46%, to $29.1 million for the three months ended April 30, 2026, from $20.0 million for the three months ended April 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $6.2 million increase in legal expenses, which was primarily due to litigation contingency expenses. The increase was also partially due to a $1.7 million increase in employee-related costs, primarily due to increased headcount, and a $0.8 million increase in stock-based compensation expense.

Interest Income

Interest income increased $3.3 million to $5.2 million for the three months ended April 30, 2026, from $1.9 million for the three months ended April 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to an increase in our cash equivalent and short-term investment balances.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $0.9 million to $1.4 million for the three months ended April 30, 2026, from $0.5 million for the three months ended April 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to $0.7 million of amortization of deferred debt discount and issuance costs and $0.6 million of interest incurred on our 2030 Notes.

Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liabilities

The change in fair value of warrant liabilities for both the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025 represents the change in fair value of the public and private placement warrants, which primarily fluctuates based on the change in trading price of our Class A common stock and the impact of time decay as the time to expiration approaches.

Other Income (Expense), net

Other income (expense), net for the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, primarily reflects realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains and losses.

Provision for Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes was $1.0 million for the three months ended April 30, 2026 and was $0.9 million for the three months ended April 30, 2025. For the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, the income tax expense was primarily driven by the current tax on foreign earnings. The effective tax rate for the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025 differed from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to the valuation allowance on the majority of our U.S. and foreign deferred tax assets and foreign rate differences.

Non-GAAP Information

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Gross Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Backlog, which are non-GAAP measures that we use to supplement our results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We include these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by management to evaluate our core operating performance and trends and to make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital and new investments.

We define and calculate Non-GAAP Gross Profit as gross profit adjusted for stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring costs, and employer payroll taxes related to earnout share vesting. We define Non-GAAP Gross Margin as Non-GAAP Gross Profit divided by revenue.

We define and calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before the impact of interest income and expense, income tax provision and depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for the following items: stock-based compensation, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, other income (expense), net, restructuring costs, certain litigation expenses, and employer payroll taxes related to earnout share vesting.

We present Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Gross Margin and Adjusted EBITDA because we believe these measures are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry and facilitate comparisons on a consistent basis across reporting periods. Further, we believe these measures are helpful in highlighting trends in our operating results because they exclude items that are not indicative of our core operating performance.

We define and calculate Backlog as remaining performance obligations plus the cancellable portion of the contract value for contracts that provide the customer with a right to terminate for convenience without incurring a substantive termination penalty and written orders where funding has not been appropriated. Backlog does not include unexercised contract options. 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. Remaining performance obligations do not include contracts which provide the customer with a right to terminate for convenience without incurring a substantive termination penalty, written orders where funding has not been appropriated and unexercised contract options.

An increasing and meaningful portion of our revenue is generated from contracts with the U.S. government and other government customers. Cancellation provisions, such as termination for convenience clauses, are common in contracts with the U.S. government and certain other government customers. We present Backlog because the portion of our customer contracts with such cancellation provisions represents a meaningful amount of our expected future revenues. Management uses backlog to more effectively forecast our future business and results, which supports decisions around capital allocation. It also helps us identify future growth or operating trends that may not otherwise be apparent. We also believe Backlog is useful for investors in forecasting our future results and understanding the growth of our business. Customer cancellation provisions relating to termination for convenience clauses and funding appropriation requirements are outside of our control, and as a result, we may fail to realize the full value of such contracts.

Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures presented are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by U.S. GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies, which may have different definitions from ours. Further, certain of the non-GAAP financial measures presented exclude stock-based compensation expenses, which has recently been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy.

For Backlog as of April 30, 2026, the Company expects to recognize approximately 40% within the next 12 months, approximately 69% within the next 24 months, and the remainder thereafter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception, we have incurred net losses. We recorded positive net cash flows from operations for the three months ended April 30, 2026. Our operations have historically been primarily funded by the net proceeds from the sale of our debt and equity securities and borrowings under credit facilities, as well as cash received from our customers.

We measure liquidity in terms of our ability to fund the cash requirements of our business operations, including working capital and capital expenditure needs, contractual obligations, including debt obligations and convertible note repayment requirements, and other commitments, with cash flows from operations and other sources of funding. Our current working capital needs relate mainly to our continued development of our platform and product offerings in new markets, as well as compensation and benefits of our employees. Our ability to expand and grow our business will depend on many factors, including our working capital needs and the evolution of our operating cash flows.

In September 2025, we issued $460.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 0.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030, pursuant to the Indenture, dated September 12, 2025, between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The total net proceeds from the offering, after deducting initial purchase discount and issuance costs, was $445.8 million. The 2030 Notes will mature on October 15, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed, or converted pursuant to their terms. In connection with the 2030 Notes, we entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the "Capped Calls Transactions"), which 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 we are 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. Refer to Note 10 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information regarding the 2030 Notes and the Capped Call Transactions.

As of April 30, 2026 and January 31, 2026, we had $368.1 million and $229.4 million, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents. Additionally, as of April 30, 2026 and January 31, 2026, we had short-term investments of $362.7 million and $410.6 million, respectively, which are highly liquid in nature and available for current operations. We believe our anticipated operating cash flows together with our cash on hand provide us with the ability to meet our obligations as they become due during the next 12 months.

We expect our capital expenditures and working capital requirements to continue to increase in the foreseeable future as we seek to grow our business. We could also need additional cash resources due to significant acquisitions,

an accelerated manufacturing timeline for new satellites, competitive pressures or regulatory requirements. We may need to seek additional equity, equity-linked or debt financing. The issuance of additional shares may create additional dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of debt financing would result in debt service obligations and the instruments governing such debt could provide for operating or financial covenants that would restrict our operations. We cannot assure you that any such financing will be available on favorable terms, or at all. If needed financing is not available, or if the terms of financing are less desirable than we expect, we may be forced to decrease our level of investment in software and market expansion efforts or to scale back our existing operations, which could have an adverse impact on our business and financial prospects.

As of April 30, 2026, our principal contractual obligations and commitments include lease obligations for real estate and ground stations, convertible note repayment requirements, and minimum purchase commitments for hosting services from Google, LLC. Refer to Notes 6, 8, 10, and 11 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information regarding these cash requirements.

We do not engage in any off-balance sheet activities or have any arrangements or relationships with unconsolidated entities, such as variable interest, special purpose, and structured finance entities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. The accounting policies that have been identified as critical to our business operations and to understanding the results of our operations pertain to revenue recognition, and property and equipment and long-lived assets. The application of each of these critical accounting policies and estimates is discussed in Part II, Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of our 2026 Form 10-K.
