On June 11, Planet Labs rose 5.68% in regular trading, trading at $33.08/share, with trading volume of approximately $93.91 million.
On the news front, the company successfully secured an eight-figure contract renewal from the U.S. National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) for maritime monitoring services, along with a new contract award for crisis response monitoring. The NGA contract provides incremental confirmation for Planet Labs' defense and intelligence business segment, reinforcing the strength of its government revenue pipeline.
The rebound comes after significant selling pressure in recent sessions, when the stock plunged approximately 26% from above $43 to the $32 level following profit-taking triggered by elevated valuations at 31x price-to-sales and the announcement of a $1.5 billion ATM equity offering. Despite Q1 revenue of $94.2 million representing 42% year-over-year growth and backlog surging 72% to over $906 million, the prior correction created technical oversold conditions that amplified the upside response to the contract news.
