Sydney, Australia (SPX) Nov 06, 2025

Planet Labs PBC announced an eight-figure, multi-year contract renewal with a long-standing international defense and intelligence customer. Under the new agreement, Planet will provide assured tasking for its Pelican and SkySat satellite constellations, supporting timely monitoring and intelligence gathering in critical regions.

Ashley Johnson, President and CFO of Planet, stated, "We continue to see significant demand from our global defense and intelligence customers, who rely on Planet's unique capabilities to gain timely and actionable insights. Our high-resolution constellations provide the precision and agility these customers need to make informed decisions and maintain situational awareness in an increasingly complex global landscape."

This renewal builds on Planet's recent defense sector growth, including contracts with agencies such as the German government, NATO, the US Department of Defense, US Navy, and the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency.
