Recent Business Highlights:
Growing Customer and Partner Relationships:
- Planet recently signed a deal with Rabobank, a leading Dutch multinational banking and financial services organization, who is using Planet’s data to support credit risk assessment for smallholder farmers in developing countries.
- Planet signed a contract expansion with Bayer Environmental Science, who created RangeView, a digital platform for the range and pasture industry using satellite imagery and planning tools to help ranchers assess pastures with the most infestation of annual invasive grasses and evaluate the return on investment for treating them.
- Planet is partnered with Swiss Re, which, jointly with its local insurance partners, is using Planet's data to insure farmers against drought in parts of Europe and Central Asia.
- Taranis and Woolpert were recognized as 2022 Partners of the Year in their respective markets at Planet’s annual Sales Kickoff in San Diego, CA.
Successfully Launching New Products and Technologies:
- PlanetScope: Planet announced the general availability of the next generation of its PlanetScope Monitoring product, offering high quality, analysis-ready data to all existing PlanetScope customers. PlanetScope will now include eight spectral bands in addition to a series of enhancements, providing customers with richer, cleaner, and more consistent data to empower deeper analysis of Earth’s changing conditions.
- SuperDoves: On January 13, 2022, Flock 4x, consisting of 44 SuperDove satellites, was successfully launched into orbit on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket. These 44 satellites join Planet’s existing fleet of roughly 200 satellites in orbit.
Supporting Ukraine Response:
- Planet has provided imagery to governments, aid and relief organizations, data analysts and media. Planet remains committed to transparency and accountability and will continue to help others to leverage its services in timely and responsible ways.
- Planet has responded with a number of product developments, including providing weekly basemaps of the region to customers, adding analytical capabilities in collaboration with third parties, and enabling improvements to its satellite tasking algorithm.
Impact and Education:
- Planet was officially certified as a carbon neutral company for the 2020 calendar year as part of its commitment to sustainability. Planet worked with SCS Global Services (SCS) to certify its operations as carbon neutral in accordance with the internationally recognized PAS 2060: 2014 Carbon Neutrality Standard. This certification covers the entire supply chain – from manufacturing and launching satellites to corporate operations.
- Planet’s robust Education and Research program has now led to its satellite data being used in over 1,800 publications. Recent highlights include a study from the University of Aberdeen in the UK, which used PlanetScope imagery to look at arctic lakes formed from melting permafrost and how to measure the resulting carbon sources and sinks in those regions. Contracts like these often lead to new use cases of Planet’s data and better forecasts of the resultant economic and geopolitical effects.
Financial Outlook
For the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, Planet expects revenue to be in the range of approximately $38 million to $41 million. Non-GAAP Gross Margin is expected to be between approximately 38% to 45%. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between approximately ($17) million and ($14) million. Capital Expenditure as a Percentage of Revenue is expected to be between approximately 8% and 9% of revenue for the first quarter.
For fiscal year 2023, Planet expects revenue to be in the range of approximately $170 million to $190 million. Non-GAAP Gross Margin is expected to be between approximately 43% to 50%. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between approximately ($75) million and ($50) million. Capital Expenditure as a Percentage of Revenue is expected to be between approximately 12% to 13% for the full fiscal year 2023.
Planet has not reconciled its Non-GAAP Gross Margin outlook, which is derived from Non-GAAP Gross Profit (Loss), and Adjusted EBITDA outlook to their most directly comparable GAAP measures (gross profit (loss) and net loss, respectively) because certain items that impact gross profit (loss) and net loss, such as stock-based compensation expense and (in the case of Adjusted EBITDA) depreciation and amortization, are uncertain or out of Planet’s control and cannot be reasonably predicted. The actual amount of these expenses during the first quarter of fiscal year 2023 and fiscal year 2023 will have a significant impact on Planet’s future GAAP financial results. Accordingly, a reconciliation of Non-GAAP Gross Margin outlook and Adjusted EBITDA outlook to gross profit (loss) margin and net loss, respectively, 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’s Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes Non-GAAP Gross Profit (Loss), Non-GAAP Gross Margin, which is derived from Non-GAAP Gross Profit (Loss), Adjusted EBITDA and certain non-GAAP operating expenses described further below, 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 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. Specifically, these measures should not be considered as an alternative to gross profit (loss), net loss, loss from operations, operating expenses, cost of revenue or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. 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. 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 (Loss) and Non-GAAP Gross Margin: The Company defines and calculates Non-GAAP Gross Profit (Loss) as gross profit (loss) adjusted for stock-based compensation expenses classified as cost of revenue, and Non-GAAP Gross Margin as the percentage of Non-GAAP Gross Profit (Loss) to revenue.
Adjusted EBITDA: The Company defines and calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net 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 convertible notes and warrant liabilities; gain or loss on the extinguishment of debt; and non-operating income and expenses such as foreign currency exchange gain or loss.
Non-GAAP Operating 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 that are classified within each of the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures.
Other Key Metrics
Percent of Recurring ACV
The Company defines 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 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.
Net Dollar Retention Rate including Winbacks
The Company defines 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. A winback is a previously existing customer who was inactive at the start of the fiscal year, but has reactivated during the same fiscal year period. The reactivation period must be within 24 months from the last active contract with the customer; otherwise, the customer is assumed as a new customer. We believe this metric is useful to investors as it captures the value of customer contracts that resume business with the Company after being inactive and thereby provides a quantification of the Company’s ability to recapture lost business. Management applies judgment in determining the value of active contracts in a given period, as set forth in the definition of ACV above. 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.
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.
