Planet Releases Fiscal Reports for Q3 2022
Popular satellite imagery and data company Planet (NYSE: PL) announced its financial report for Q3 2022, outshining the previous year’s performance. The company gained a 57% year-on-year increase with record revenue of $49.7 million, reducing its EBITDA loss to $12.4 million. Following a fiscal calendar that ends on January 31st, the company hopes to generate an annual revenue ranging from $188 to $192 million. An evaluation of the percent of recurring annual contract value (ACV) for Planet in Q3 2022 resulted in 94%.
The company’s Chief Financial and Operating Officer, Ashley Johnson, stated:
“For the third quarter of fiscal year 2023, we delivered $49.7 million in revenue, a growth rate of 57% year-over-year, expanded Non-GAAP Gross Margin to 54%, and ended the quarter with $425 million of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Q3 marked another great quarter for Planet and we expect to close out the year strong with the quarter ahead.”

Planet’s Co-Founder, Chief Executive Officer, and Chairperson, Will Marshall, expressed his excitement about the performance in a statement:
“We saw great momentum in the government segment and announced multiple exciting new strategic partnerships in the commercial sector. Planet’s growth continues to be underpinned by global, secular tailwinds that are driving demand for our solutions. Our data helps enable customers and partners to address today’s most complex issues, ranging from climate risk and adaptation to geopolitical security.”
