Recent Business Highlights:
Growing Customer and Partner Relationships
•United States Space Force (USSF): Planet closed an expansion opportunity with the United States Space Force's AFRL to support their MicroSatellite Military Utility Program (MSMU). This 12-month extension will enable support of Coalition partner military training exercises around the globe utilizing responsive commercial space capabilities. AFRL has been leveraging SkySat, SkySat Video, and AI-based Vessel Detection to supplement the U.S. Department of Defense’s commercial satellite capabilities.
•US Government Agency: Planet recently received a new seven-figure annual contract value (“ACV”) award from a US Government agency for high-resolution SkySat tasking capabilities. The award was won through one of Planet's partners.
•Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Asia: Planet recently won a new contract with a Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Asia. The contract has a seven-figure ACV. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is a new customer for Planet and the contract was won through one of Planet’s partners in the region.
•UK Rural Payments Agency: Planet and Earth-i announced that they have been awarded a seven-figure ACV, multi-year contract to deliver environmental monitoring for the UK’s Rural Payments Agency. The UK Government will use Planet’s data to support its Environmental Land
Management Scheme. The data allows for country-wide detection of a wider range of biophysical parameters than ever before in support of increasing the UK’s natural capital.
•Multiple Canadian Provincial Governments: Planet expanded contracts with existing customers across multiple Canadian provincial governments. Planet’s data and solutions will be used to support critical disaster response efforts during the Canadian fire season, to monitor impacts of climate change on ecosystems, and to support land rights across the region.
New Technologies and Products
•Sinergise Acquisition: In August, Planet completed its previously announced acquisition of the business of Holding Sinergise d.o.o. (“Sinergise”), a leading developer platform for Earth observation (EO) data. The purchase of the Sinergise business, based in Ljubljana, Slovenia, accelerates the advancement of Planet’s Earth Data Platform and ability to efficiently deliver EO data to customers, which Planet expects will support accelerated time to value for customers.
•Global Forest Carbon Dataset: Planet announced plans to release its global Forest Carbon Planetary Variable. This groundbreaking dataset aims to provide insights into forest change and carbon capture at nearly the individual tree level. By leveraging advanced deep learning models, Planet’s Forest Carbon product is designed to provide exceptional resolution, accuracy, and frequency to a variety of stakeholders in forested ecosystems - from voluntary carbon market participants and service providers to entities dependent on forests in their supply chains to jurisdictions and regulators needing quality global insights into changes in forest area and carbon stocks.
Global Sustainability and Impact
•Maui Fire Response: Planet contributed its data to a publicly available damage assessment solution as part of its collaboration with Microsoft’s AI for Good Lab and the Red Cross. Additionally, Planet’s data was leveraged by the United States Air Force Civil Air Patrol Geospatial Team as part of their damage assessment conducted at the request of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”).
•NICFI Program: Planet’s NICFI Satellite Data Program continues to make available data of all the world’s equatorial tropical forests to governments, UN agencies, NGOs, scientists, and others. For instance, The Nature Conservancy and Wageningen University have recently been leveraging Planet’s high spatial and temporal resolution Basemaps to map roads, selective logging, and woody vines for improved carbon sequestration strategies. More examples from the quarterly update can be found at planet.com/pulse.
Financial Outlook
For the third quarter of fiscal year 2024, ending October 31, 2023, Planet expects revenue to be in the range of approximately $54 million to $56 million, representing approximately 11% year-over-year growth at the midpoint. Non-GAAP Gross Margin is expected to be in the range of approximately 50% to 52%. Adjusted EBITDA loss is expected to be in the range of approximately ($15) million and ($13) million. Capital Expenditures as a Percentage of Revenue is expected to be in the range of approximately 22% to 25% for the quarter.
For fiscal year 2024, ending January 31, 2024, Planet expects revenue to be in the range of approximately $216 million to $223 million, representing approximately 15% year-over-year growth at the midpoint. Non-GAAP Gross Margin is expected to be in the range of approximately 52% to 54%. Adjusted EBITDA loss is expected to be in the range of approximately ($63) million and ($55) million. Capital Expenditures as a Percentage of Revenue is expected to be in the range of approximately 22% to 23% for the full fiscal year 2024.
Planet intends to exclude the charges associated with its recent headcount reduction from its non-GAAP financial metrics, including Adjusted EBITDA, and the outlook above reflects such exclusion.
Planet has not reconciled its Non-GAAP financial outlook to the most directly comparable GAAP measures because certain reconciling items, such as stock-based compensation expenses and depreciation and amortization are uncertain or out of Planet’s control and cannot be reasonably predicted. The actual amount of these expenses during the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 and fiscal year 2024 will have a significant impact on Planet’s future GAAP financial results. Accordingly, a reconciliation of Planet’s Non-GAAP outlook to the most comparable GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable efforts.
The foregoing forward-looking statements reflect Planet’s expectations as of today's date. Given the number of risk factors, uncertainties and assumptions discussed below, actual results may differ materially.

Planet will host a conference call at 5:00 p.m. ET / 2:00 p.m. PT today, September 7, 2023. The webcast can be accessed at www.planet.com/investors/.

Planet’s Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Gross Margin, certain Non-GAAP Expenses described further below, Non-GAAP Loss from Operations, Non-GAAP Net Loss, Non-GAAP Net Loss per Diluted Share and Adjusted EBITDA which are non-GAAP performance measures that the Company uses to supplement its results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating its operating performance, as they are similar to measures reported by the Company’s public competitors and are regularly used by analysts, institutional investors, and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects. Further, the Company believes such non-GAAP measures are helpful in highlighting trends in the Company’s operating results because they exclude certain items that are not indicative of the Company’s core operating performance. In addition, the Company includes these non-GAAP financial measures because they are used by management to evaluate the Company’s core operating performance and trends and to make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital and new investments.
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 the Company. Further, 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 the Company’s business and an important part of its compensation strategy.
Planet calculates these non-GAAP financial measures as follows:
Non-GAAP Gross Profit and Non-GAAP Gross Margin: The Company defines and calculates Non-GAAP Gross Profit as gross profit adjusted for stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets classified as cost of revenue, and other expenses that are considered unrelated to our underlying business performance and Non-GAAP Gross Margin as Non-GAAP Gross Profit divided by revenue.
Non-GAAP Expenses: The Company defines and calculates Non-GAAP cost of revenue, Non-GAAP research and development expenses, Non-GAAP sales and marketing expenses, and Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses as, in each case, the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measure (cost of revenue, research and development expenses, sales and marketing expenses, and general and administrative expenses) adjusted for stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets and other expenses that are considered unrelated to our underlying business performance, that are classified within each of the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures.
Non-GAAP Loss from Operations: The Company defines and calculates Non-GAAP Loss from Operations as loss from operations adjusted for stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets and other expenses that are considered unrelated to our underlying business performance.
Non-GAAP Net Loss and Non-GAAP Net Loss per Diluted Share: The Company defines and calculates Non-GAAP Net Loss as net loss adjusted for stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and other expenses that are considered unrelated to our underlying business performance and the tax effects of the adjustments. The Company defines and calculates Non-GAAP Net Loss per Diluted Share as Non-GAAP Net Loss divided by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding.
Adjusted EBITDA: The Company defines and calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before the impact of interest income and expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for the following items: stock-based compensation, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, gain or loss on the extinguishment of debt and non-operating income, expenses such as foreign currency exchange gain or loss, and other expenses that are considered unrelated to our underlying business performance.
Other Key Metrics
ACV and EoP ACV Book of Business: In connection with the calculation of several of the key operational and business metrics we utilize, the Company calculates 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. For short-term contracts (contracts less than 12 months), ACV is equal to total contract value.
The Company also calculates EoP ACV Book of Business in connection with the calculation of several of the key operational and business metrics we utilize. The Company defines 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. 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. The Company does not annualize short-term contracts in calculating EoP ACV Book of Business. The Company calculates 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.
Percent of Recurring ACV: The Company defines Percent of Recurring ACV as the dollar value of all data subscription contracts and the committed portion of usage-based contracts divided by the total dollar value of all contracts in its ACV Book of Business at a specific point in time. The Company defines 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. The Company believes Percent of Recurring ACV is a useful metric for investors and management to track as it helps to illustrate how much of its revenue comes from customers that have the potential to renew their contracts over multiple years rather than being one-time in nature. In calculating Percent of Recurring ACV, management applies judgment as to which customers have an active contract at a period end for the purpose of determining ACV Book of Business, which is used as part of the calculation of Percent of Recurring ACV.
EoP Customer Count: The Company defines EoP Customer Count as the total count of all existing customers at the end of the period. It defines existing customers as customers with an active contract with the Company at the end of the reported period. For the purpose of this metric, the Company defines a customer as a distinct entity that uses its data or services. The Company sells directly to customers, as well as indirectly through its partner network. If a partner does not provide the end customer’s name, then the partner is reported as the customer. Each customer, regardless of the number of active opportunities with the Company, is counted only once. For example, if a customer utilizes multiple products of the Company, the Company only counts that customer once for purposes of EoP Customer Count. A customer with multiple divisions, segments, or subsidiaries are also counted as a single unique customer based on the parent organization or parent account. The Company believes EoP Customer Count is a useful metric for investors and management to track as it is an important indicator of the broader adoption of its platform and is a measure of its success in growing its market presence and penetration. In calculating EoP Customer Count, management applies judgment as to which customers are deemed to have an active contract in a period, as well as whether a customer is a distinct entity that uses the Company’s data or services.
Capital Expenditures as a Percentage of Revenue: The Company defines 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. The Company defines 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 the Company’s data services and related revenue, and to provide a comparable view of the Company’s performance relative to other earth observation companies, which may invest significantly greater amounts in their satellites to deliver their data to customers. The Company uses 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 the Company’s data to clients. As a result of the Company’s strategy and business model, the Company’s capital expenditures may be more similar to software companies with large data center infrastructure costs. Therefore, the Company believes it is important to look at the level of capital expenditure investments relative to revenue when evaluating the Company’s performance relative to other earth observation companies or to other software and data companies with significant data center infrastructure investment requirements. The Company believes 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 the Company and the Company’s relative capital efficiency.
