CNBC Squawk on the Street – 7.7.21

Morgan Brennan:

Planet, a private space start-up which operates a network of about 200 satellites taking daily photos of Earth announcing today that it will go public via a SPAC merger. Joining us now is Planet’s co-founder and CEO Will Marshall, and Niccolo de Masi, dMY Technology Group’s CEO. Gentlemen, welcome to the show and congratulations on this deal. Will, I mean, going back a couple years pre-pandemic, the talk within the space industry was that Planet was a likely contender to go public. Why are you doing so now? Why are you doing so in this format?

Will Marshall: Look, I mean, real excited to be going public because Planet is ready for the big wide world and the world really needs Planet. So Planet is ready because we’ve got a stable business of over $100 million in revenue diversified industries ranging from agriculture that use our data to improve crop yields to governments for security and disaster response to mapping companies like Google that use it to improve their maps that you find online. And we feel our business is ready for the prime time and can scale a lot and at the same time the world needs Planet we’re filling this hole especially as the world reboots into a sustainable economy, every company needs to measure their ESG targets. Every country on the Earth needs to measure their emissions, and Planet has the data that enables us to move to a sustainable economy.

Morgan Brennan: Yeah, and we’re talking about data that potentially has applications in every industry on Earth. I want to dig into that a little bit more, but first, Niccolo, why did you choose to invest or why are you choosing to sponsor Planet specifically, especially when there are quite a number now, a growing number of Earth imaging satellite names out there?

Niccolo de Masi: Well, we’ve actually been following the business and the sector a long time, and believe it or not, whilst there are other businesses that are attempting to sort of follow us, they are many years behind, right. This industry has been going ten years largely because of Will Marshall’s pioneering vision and his ability to build out a vertically integrated hardware, software, machine learning and data business has made him effectively, I’d say, the 800 pound gorilla of the space. He has 30 times more imagining revenue than the next biggest competitor, ten times more satellites than everybody else combined. If you think about the sort of metrics that matter in this industry for leadership, we’ve got triple digit number of satellites. Competitors are in the single digits. We’ve got nine figures of revenue. Competitors often have as little as zero or even seven figures only of revenue this year. So look, I’ve seen a lot of tech businesses, a lot of tech industries, and I’ve seen them scale, and historically, the leading player, especially when the lead is this commanding, has outsized returns – much faster growth than the S&P 500, much bigger share price returns – and we think that Planet has, I would argue, the most commanding lead we have ever seen in any aspect of the technology market today.

Morgan Brennan: Yeah, well, I realize that you’ve built out this constellation of satellites and basically the infrastructure that enables you to be a data and data analytics company and sign up hundreds of customers to these subscriptions. Of your different segments, what is growing the fastest and how large will you continue to grow this constellation to continue to add more capability?

Will Marshall: Great question. The biggest segments today are in agriculture, government, mapping and in forestry, and those are all growing really fast, especially in agriculture, it’s trying to switch to precision agriculture that improves crop yields and decreases fertilizer costs and also moves to sustainable agriculture, a really important thing. We are seeing massive growth. And it really is a data business, so you mentioned that we have 200 satellites and we scan the whole Earth every day, but we feed those satellite data feeds as data feeds into people’s workflows to enable them to make smarter decisions, and that’s all on a subscription basis. So think of it like a “Bloomberg-like” terminal for Earth data, which people use as data feeds to make these smarter decisions. And just like any data business, it’s high growth and high margins, and we have great user lock in. So our customers really like using that platform, and it’s pretty much relevant to every company on the planet.

Morgan Brennan: Quickly, Will, how are you keeping all that data safe especially given the fact that cybersecurity is in focus with all these attacks and hacks that we’ve seen across so many industries as of late?

Will Marshall: Absolutely, a critical question, and we encrypt our links to our satellites extremely, we’re aware we have a big surface area to attack if you like, and we ensure that we do all the latest technology to keep the data safe and we have strong company provisions there.

Morgan Brennan: Alright, Will and Niccolo thanks for joining us today.

Will Marshall: Thank you very much.

Niccolo de Masi: It was a pleasure.
