Planet Labs PBC Launches Pelican-11 Tech Demonstration Satellite For Second Generation Pelican Fleet Planet Labs PBC announced the successful launch of Pelican-11, the tech demonstration satellite (TD2) for the second generation (Gen 2) of its high-resolution Pelican fleet. The spacecraft was launched to orbit aboard the Transporter-17 rideshare mission with SpaceX from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. Planet has successfully made initial contact with the satellite and has begun the commissioning process. As a dedicated engineering pathfinder, Pelican-11 is designed to validate new technologies and capabilities prior to their integration onboard Planet's upcoming second generation (Gen 2) Pelicans. Building on Gen 1 Pelicans’ ability to capture up to 50 cm class resolution imagery, Gen 2 are designed to provide up to 30 cm class imagery. In alignment with Planet’s approach to Agile Aerospace, this tech demonstration satellite is expected to allow rapid hardware testing and calibration in the space environment, helping upcoming production fleets scale seamlessly. Pelican-11 is not anticipated to produce commercially available data. Planet plans to continue scaling its high-resolution, AI-powered monitoring capacity, and meet growing global customer demand by launching additional Pelican spacecraft over the next year.

Planet Labs PBC Ships Pelican-11 Satellite To Launch Site Planet Labs PBC announced that Pelican-11, the tech demonstration satellite of the second generation (Gen 2) of its high-resolution Pelican fleet, has shipped to Vandenberg Space Force Base in California ahead of its launch aboard the upcoming Transporter-17 rideshare mission with SpaceX. Planet’s first generation (Gen 1) Pelicans are designed to capture 50 cm class resolution imagery. Pelican-11 will join the existing Pelican fleet, and serve as a means of testing new technologies before their integration onboard Planet’s second generation (Gen 2) Pelicans, which are designed to provide up to 30 cm class imagery. Pelican-11 is not anticipated to produce commercially available data; instead, it will collect information to inform Planet’s future Pelican designs and act as a testbed for new Gen 2 technologies and concepts of operation. Planet plans to launch additional Pelican spacecraft in 2026 and 2027 to continue to meet the rising, global customer demand for sovereign satellite ownership and Planet’s high-resolution data products.

Planet Labs PBC Releases First Light Imagery From Latest Pelican Launch Planet Labs PBC released first light images from its latest Pelican launch, including the Swedish Armed Forces’ first ever sovereign satellite. Planet launched these three Pelican spacecraft to orbit aboard the CAS500-2 rideshare mission with SpaceX from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California on May 3, 2026. Planet received high-resolution first light imagery from the Pelican satellites within days of their May 3 launch. Each satellite captured imagery from around the world, including Gotland, Sweden, on May 7, 2026, from an altitude of 515 km; Taiyuan, in Shanxi, China, on May 5, 2026, from an altitude of 512 km; and Ambursu, Nigeria, on May 11, 2026, from an altitude of 510 km. As the spacecraft complete the instrument calibration process and reach their final operational orbits, image quality is expected to further improve. With this most recent launch, there are now nine AI-enabled, high resolution Pelican satellites on orbit. This first generation of Pelican satellites are built to capture 50 cm class resolution imagery across six multispectral bands, which are optimized for seamless cross-sensor analysis. Planet plans to launch additional Pelican satellites in 2026. New Risk • May 15
New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 18% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (US$46m net loss in 3 years). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (18% increase in shares outstanding). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (€6.1m sold). Announcement • May 07

Planet Labs PBC Launches Three Additional High-Resolution Pelican Satellites Planet Labs PBC announced the successful launch of three additional Pelican satellites, one of which is the first satellite to orbit as part of the recently-announced satellite services agreement with the Swedish Armed Forces. The spacecraft were launched to orbit aboard the CAS500-2 rideshare mission with SpaceX from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. Planet has begun the commissioning process for the three satellites after successfully making initial contact. The launch of the SwAF Pelican marks a milestone in agile aerospace, with Planet delivering a sovereign orbital capability just over four months after the contract was signed. This mission transitions Sweden into an operational space power, providing the high-resolution, global monitoring necessary to detect threats in strategic regions like the Arctic. By reaching orbit years ahead of their original 2030 goal, the Swedish Armed Forces will be able to provide critical intelligence that strengthens both their national security and NATO’s collective situational awareness. These advanced, AI-enabled Pelican satellites are the first to launch in 2026, building on the successful launches that brought five Pelicans to orbit in 2025. Each of these satellites is equipped with NVIDIA’s Jetson AI platform to facilitate on-orbit edge computing, which Planet has recently leveraged for successful AI-driven, near real-time object detection onboard Pelican-4. As first generation (Gen 1) Pelicans, these spacecraft are built to capture 50 cm class resolution imagery across six multispectral bands, which are optimized for seamless cross-sensor analysis. Once commissioning is complete, they will operate alongside the existing Pelican Gen 1 fleet to support the delivery of the company's 50 cm class high-resolution tasking solutions. Planet is continuing to scale its Pelican manufacturing capacity to meet the growing, global customer demand for high-resolution data and sovereign satellite ownership. Planet’s expanding Pelican fleet is designed to provide users with the rapid, crisp imagery needed to inform mission-critical decisions in near real-time, particularly through leading solutions like Planet’s Global Monitoring Service (GMS). Planet is also continuing to deliver on and develop a strong pipeline for its satellite services contracts, supplying nations with a proven means of expanding their space capabilities with advanced, sovereignly-owned Pelican satellites. Planet plans to continue to meet the rapidly growing need for its high-resolution monitoring solutions by launching additional Gen 1 and the first Gen 2 Pelican satellites later in 2026, which are designed to provide up to 30 cm class resolution.
