Exhibit 99.1
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements of Spire
On September 13, 2021, Spire Global, Inc. (Spire) and exactEarth Ltd. (exactEarth) announced that they had entered into an Arrangement Agreement (the Agreement) for Spire to acquire exactEarth for a combination of cash and Spire stock (the Acquisition). As of October 8, 2021, the estimated total consideration to be paid to exactEarth shareholders is approximately $187.2 million (US$149.6 million). The cash portion of the consideration for the Acquisition is estimated to be approximately $136.7 million (US$109.2 million) and the stock portion of the consideration is estimated to be 5,232,914 shares of Spire valued at approximately $50.5 million (US$40.4 million).
On August 16, 2021 (the Closing Date), Spire Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation (f/k/a NavSight Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and our predecessor company (NavSight)), consummated its previously announced business combination (the Business Combination) pursuant to the terms of that certain Business Combination Agreement, dated February 28, 2021 (the Business Combination Agreement), by and among NavSight, NavSight Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of NavSight (NavSight Merger Sub), Spire Global Subsidiary, Inc., a Delaware corporation (f/k/a Spire Global, Inc.) (Old Spire), and Peter Platzer, Theresa Condor, Jeroen Cappaert, and Joel Spark (collectively, the Founders) (such consummation, the Closing).
As Spire has not issued consolidated financial statements since the Closing of the Business Combination, Spire management believes that the pro forma financial information incorporated by reference from Spires Registration Statement on Form S-1 dated September 22, 2021 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on September 23, 2021 (Form S- 1) which reflects the pro forma financial information of the consummation of the Business Combination (historical pro forma of Spire) provide a reasonable basis for the ensuing unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information (pro formas).
The following pro formas are based on the historical pro forma financial statements of Spire, contained in the Form S-1 dated September 22, 2021 as filed with the SEC on September 23, 2021, and the historical consolidated financial statements of exactEarth, and has been prepared to reflect the Acquisition. The pro formas are presented for illustrative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the results of operations or the financial position of Spire that actually would have resulted had the Business Combination and Acquisition occurred on January 1, 2020 for the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations and June 30, 2021 for the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, nor project the results of operations or financial position of Spire for any future date or period.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations (the pro forma statements of operations) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 (the 2021 pro forma statement of operations) and for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the 2020 pro forma statement of operations) assume that the Acquisition was completed on January 1, 2020. Due to differences in each reporting entities fiscal year end, the 2021 pro forma statement of operations includes the six months ended June 30, 2021 for Spire and the six months ended April 30, 2021 for exactEarth. The 2020 pro forma statement of operations includes the twelve-month period ended on December 31, 2020 for Spire combined with the twelve-month period ended October 31, 2020 for exactEarth. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet (the pro forma balance sheet) is based on the assumption that the Acquisition occurred on the last day of the most recently published balance sheet of Spire, June 30, 2021, the acquiring entity, and includes pro forma adjustments to exactEarths balance sheet as of April 30, 2021. Pro forma adjustments reflected in the pro formas are based on items that are factually supportable and directly attributable to the Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release 33-10786 Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses. The pro forma statements of operations exclude any estimated impact of non-recurring integration costs or benefits from the Acquisition, including potential synergies that may be derived in future periods.
These pro formas should be read in conjunction with:
| Spires consolidated financial statements and related notes for the twelve-months ended December 31, 2020 and the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes as of and for the six-months ended June 30, 2021, Managements Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations,, and the historical pro forma financial statements of Spire, contained in the Form S-1, dated September 22, 2021 as filed with the SEC on September 23, 2021; and |
| exactEarths audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended October 31, 2020, together with related notes, and exactEarths unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended April 30, 2021, together with related notes, which are available on exactEarths company website. |
exactEarths historical consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, which differ in certain respects from the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). Adjustments were made to exactEarths historical financial statements to estimate the conversion from IFRS to U.S. GAAP as well as reclassifications to conform exactEarths historical presentation to Spires accounting presentation. Adjustments were also made to translate exactEarths financial statements from Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars based on applicable historical exchange rates, which may differ from future exchange rates. These adjustments reflect Spires best estimates based upon the information available to date and are preliminary and subject to change once more detailed information is obtained.
The Acquisition will be accounted for as a business combination in conformity with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been recorded based on preliminary estimates of fair value. The final determination of fair value for purposes of purchase price allocation will be based upon, in part, valuation work performed by independent valuation professionals. Spire management is still reviewing the characteristics and assumptions related to exactEarths assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Estimates and assumptions are subject to change upon finalization of these preliminary valuations. The completion of the valuation work could result in significantly different depreciation and amortization expenses and balance sheet measurement.
The pro forma adjustments are based upon the best available information and certain assumptions that Spire believes to be reasonable. Further, these adjustments could materially change as the allocation of the purchase price for exactEarth has not been finalized. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the final allocation of the purchase price will not differ from the preliminary allocation reflected in the pro formas.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
On September 13, 2021, Spire Global, Inc. (Spire) and exactEarth Ltd. (exactEarth) announced that they had entered into an Arrangement Agreement (the Agreement) for Spire to acquire exactEarth for a combination of cash and Spire stock (the Acquisition). As of October 8, 2021, the estimated total consideration to be paid to exactEarth shareholders is approximately $187.2 million (US$149.6 million). The cash portion of the consideration for the Acquisition is estimated to be approximately $136.7 million (US$109.2 million) and the stock portion of the consideration is estimated to be 5,232,914 shares of Spire valued at approximately $50.5 million (US$40.4 million).
On August 16, 2021 (the Closing Date), Spire Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation (f/k/a NavSight Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and our predecessor company (NavSight)), consummated its previously announced business combination (the Business Combination) pursuant to the terms of that certain Business Combination Agreement, dated February 28, 2021 (the Business Combination Agreement), by and among NavSight, NavSight Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of NavSight (NavSight Merger Sub), Spire Global Subsidiary, Inc., a Delaware corporation (f/k/a Spire Global, Inc.) (Old Spire), and Peter Platzer, Theresa Condor, Jeroen Cappaert, and Joel Spark (collectively, the Founders) (such consummation, the Closing).
As Spire has not issued consolidated financial statements since the Closing of the Business Combination, Spire management believes that the pro forma financial information incorporated by reference from Spires Registration Statement on Form S-1 dated September 22, 2021 as filed with the SEC on September 23, 2021 (Form S-1) which reflects the pro forma financial information of the consummation of the Business Combination (historical pro forma of Spire) provide a reasonable basis for the ensuing unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information (pro formas).
The following pro formas are based on the historical pro forma financial statements of Spire, contained in the Form S-1 dated September 22, 2021 as filed with the SEC on September 23, 2021, and the historical consolidated financial statements of exactEarth, and has been prepared to reflect the Acquisition. The pro formas are presented for illustrative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the results of operations or the financial position of Spire that actually would have resulted had the Business Combination and Acquisition occurred on January 1, 2020 for the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations and June 30, 2021 for the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, nor project the results of operations or financial position of Spire for any future date or period.
The accounting policies under U.S. GAAP used in the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are those set forth in Spires consolidated financial statements included in its Form S-1 dated September 22, 2021 as filed with the SEC on September 23, 2021.
The accounting policies of exactEarth under IFRS are as described in Note 2 to its historical consolidated financial statements which have been included in exactEarths 2020 Annual report.
exactEarths historical consolidated financial statements (exactEarths financial statements) were prepared in accordance with IFRS, which differs in certain respects from U.S. GAAP. The preliminary conversion of the exactEarth historical consolidated financial statements from IFRS to U.S. GAAP, including the impact of conforming to U.S. GAAP accounting policies as applied by Spire, and the translation from Canadian dollar amounts ($) into U.S. dollars (US $) is discussed further in Note 2 below.
The pro formas are presented for illustrative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the results of operations or the financial position of Spire that actually would have resulted had the Acquisition occurred on the dates indicated, nor project the results of operations or financial position of Spire for any future dates or periods. The pro forma statements of operations were developed assuming the Acquisition closed on January 1, 2020, while the pro forma balance sheet was developed assuming the Acquisition closed on June 30, 2021.
Pro forma adjustments reflected in the pro forma statements of operations are based on items that are factually supportable, which are directly attributable to the Acquisition. These pro formas do not reflect the future potential cost of any integration activities or benefits from the Acquisition including potential synergies that may be generated in future periods.
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements (continued)
As noted above, exactEarths historical financial statements were presented in Canadian dollars. Accordingly, the following historical exchange rates were used to translate exactEarths financial statements and calculate certain adjustments to the pro forma financial statements from $ to US$:
Average daily closing exchange rate for the six months ended April 30, 2021: |
US$ | 0.78543/$ | ||
Average daily closing exchange rate for the year ended October 31, 2020: |
US$ | 0.74367/$ | ||
Closing exchange rate as of June 30, 2021: |
US$ | 0.806649/$ |
These exchange rates may differ from future exchange rates which would have an impact on the pro forma financial information and would also impact the final purchase price consideration upon consummation of the Acquisition.
Unless indicated otherwise in the notes to the pro formas, Spire has applied the enacted statutory tax rates in the U.S. or Canada, as applicable, for the respective dates and periods.
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements (continued)
Note 2. Adjustments to exactEarths financial statements
The financial information below illustrates the impact of estimated adjustments made to exactEarths historical financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS, in order to present them on a basis consistent with Spires accounting presentation and policies under U.S. GAAP. Spire will continue to conduct a review of exactEarths accounting policies during its integration in an effort to determine if there are any material differences that require reclassification of exactEarths revenues, expenses, assets or liabilities to conform to Spires accounting policies and classifications. As a result of that review, Spire may identify further differences between the accounting policies of the two companies that, when conformed, could have a material impact on the pro forma financial information.

(1) | exactEarths historical financial statements were presented in Canadian dollars. Accordingly, foreign currency conversion rates as described in Note 1 were used to translate exactEarths financial statements and calculate certain adjustments to the pro forma financial statements from $ to US$. |
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements (continued)
a. | Leases |
Under IFRS 16, Leases, exactEarth recorded a Right of Use (ROU) asset, lease liability and associated ROU asset depreciation as well as lease interest expense related to their headquarters lease in Cambridge, Ontario. As Spire accounts for leases under U.S. GAAP ASC 840, Leases, the ROU asset, depreciation and lease liabilities are removed as of the balance sheet date (June 30, 2021). The difference between the ROU asset less depreciation and the lease liability is due to the effects of the straight line depreciation method, and effective interest methods being used. This difference is reconciled with adjustments to lease expense and accumulated deficit over the income statement period presented.
b. | Strategic Innovation Fund Loan (SIF) |
Under IFRS 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure, exactEarth initially measured low-interest or interest-free loans from a government at fair value and subsequently recognized interest expense on the loan under the effective interest method. The difference between the fair value at inception and the loan proceeds received was recorded as a government grant. The grant portion was split between operating costs and capital costs based on the costs to which the loan related. The grant related to capital was recognized as a reduction to the carrying amount of an eligible asset and realized over the life of the asset as reduced amortization expense. The grant related to operating expenses was recognized in cost of revenue. Under U.S. GAAP, interest may not be imputed on low-interest or interest-free loans from a government. Therefore, the loan amount has been increased to the amount of cash received and the subsequent interest expense and reduction to cost of revenue and property and equipment have been eliminated to conform with U.S. GAAP.
c. | Myriota Licensed Intellectual Property |
Under IFRS 38, Intangible Assets, when it is probable that the acquired intellectual asset is expected to have future economic benefits, and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably, the asset shall be treated as an intangible asset. Under U.S. GAAP, the entire license cost for in-process research and development (IPR&D) shall be recorded as research and development expense at inception due to its lack of future alternative use, in accordance with ASC 730, Research and Development. All research and development costs presented by exactEarth under IFRS have been reclassified from the financial statement line item intangible assets to conform with the presentation applied by Spire in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Refer to Note 4 for the reclassification adjustments.
These pro formas do not reflect other potential tax-related adjustments arising from the IFRS to U.S. GAAP conversion. A comprehensive analysis will be performed upon completion of the Acquisition.
Note 3. Pro forma adjustments related to the Acquisition
a. | Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation |
The Acquisition will be accounted for as a business combination in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Under this accounting, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been presented based on preliminary estimates of fair value. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, fair value is determined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The final fair values will be determined during the closing of the Acquisition and may vary from these estimates.
On September 13, 2021, Spire entered into the Agreement to acquire all of the outstanding common shares of exactEarth. exactEarth shareholders will receive consideration per share consisting of (i) $2.5009 in cash, and (ii) 0.1 shares of Spire Class A common stock. Upon the closing of the Acquisition, the vesting of all outstanding exactEarth options and restricted stock units (RSUs) will accelerate and be exchanged for fully vested shares of Spire. The estimated total consideration to be paid to exactEarth shareholders is approximately $187.2 million (US$149.6 million) as of October 8, 2021, based on the 10-day volume weighted average price (VWAP) of Spire Class A common stock and closing exchange rate on October 8, 2021. A sensitivity analysis on total purchase consideration was performed using Spires volatility rate of 70%, which was determined by looking at a one year lookback on Spire Peer Group historical volatility through September 30, 2021. A 70% change in Spire Class A common stock price would result in an $29.3 million increase or decrease in total purchase consideration as of October 8, 2021. Spire currently intends to use cash on hand to settle the cash portion of the consideration for the Acquisition, estimated to be approximately $136.7 million (US$109.2 million). This includes consideration of approximately $5.8 million (US$4.6 million) for exactEarth deferred share units (DSUs). The stock component is determined by a baseline share exchange ratio of 0.1 shares of Spire Class A common stock. exactEarth outstanding shares, options, RSUs and ESPP shares will be exchanged for 5,232,914 fully vested shares of Spire with an estimated value of approximately $50.4 million (US$40.4 million). Completion of the Acquisition is subject to certain closing conditions, including approval by exactEarths shareholders and the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) and regulatory approvals, as well as other customary closing conditions.
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements (continued)
As at the date of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, Spire has not completed the detailed valuation study necessary to arrive at the required final estimates of the fair value of the exactEarths assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed. A final determination of the fair value of exactEarths assets and liabilities will be based on the information and assumptions that exist as of the closing date of the Acquisition, and, therefore, cannot be made prior to the Acquisition date. Certain valuations and assessments, including valuations of property, and equipment, intangible assets, other assets and contract liabilities are in process. In addition, the value of the consideration to be paid by Spire upon the consummation of the Acquisition will be determined based on the ten-day VWAP immediately preceding the closing date of the Acquisition. As a result, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and as additional analysis is performed. The preliminary pro forma adjustments have been made solely for the purpose of providing the unaudited pro forma financial information. Upon completion of the Acquisition, a final determination of fair value of exactEarths assets and liabilities will be performed. Any increases or decreases in the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed upon completion of the final valuations will be reflected in the actual reporting by Spire subsequent to closing. The final purchase price allocation may be materially different than that reflected in the pro forma allocation presented below.
The preliminary valuations have been estimated utilizing customary valuation methods, including the income, market and cost approaches.
The following table summarizes the estimated consideration transferred and the preliminary purchase price of the fair values of the exactEarth assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Acquisition date (in thousands, except share amounts, exchange ratio and share price amounts).

(2) | The stock portion of the purchase consideration was estimated using a price of US$7.72 for each share of Spire Class A common stock based on Spires 10-day VWAP at October 8, 2021 (Spire Share Reference Price). Under the terms of the Acquisition, exactEarths shareholders will receive 0.1 share of Spire Class A common stock in exchange for each share of exactEarths common stock held. The vesting of all outstanding exactEarth options and restricted stock units will accelerate and will be exchanged for fully vested shares of Spire. The actual purchase consideration will be determined upon consummation of the Acquisition as contemplated in the Agreement. |
(3) | The cash portion of the purchase consideration is comprised of two components. Holders of exactEarths 52,329,127 outstanding common shares, and holders of 1,673,268 DSUs, will receive $2.5009 (using the Canadian dollar to US dollar spot rate of US$0.799046/$ as of October 8, 2021) in cash for each exactEarth common share held. Holders of DSUs will also receive the cash equivalent of 0.1 shares of Spire Class A common stock for each DSU at the Spire Share Reference Price of US$7.72. |
(4) | As discussed below, $1.5 million was treated as post combination expense, of which, $0.1 million and $1.4 million was classified as sales and marketing expense and general and administrative expense, respectively. |
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements (continued)
Treatment of Outstanding Equity Awards
exactEarth Stock Options
The Agreement provides that upon the closing of the Acquisition, vesting of all exactEarth outstanding stock options that are in-the-money at the Acquisition date will accelerate, and the awards will be net share settled and exchanged for fully vested shares of exactEarth stock, which will be converted to Spire stock at a conversion rate of 0.1 shares of Spire and $2.5009 per share of exactEarth stock. All options out-of-the-money will be cancelled.
Exchanges of share-based payment awards in conjunction with a business combination are modifications of share-based payment awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Share-based Payments. Based on Spire managements assessment of the modification and the provisions of ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, incorporating exactEarth and Spires closing stock price and the Canadian dollar to U.S. dollar conversion rate on October 8, 2021, US$0.4 million (relating to vested awards) was treated as purchase consideration and US$0.4 million (relating to unvested awards) was immediately expensed at the acquisition date.
exactEarth Restricted Stock Unit Awards
The Agreement provides that upon the closing of the Acquisition, vesting of all exactEarth outstanding restricted stock unit awards at the Acquisition date will accelerate and the awards will be exchanged for fully vested shares of exactEarth stock, which will be converted to Spire stock at a conversion rate of 0.1 shares of Spire and $2.5009 per share of exactEarth stock.
Exchanges of share-based payment awards in conjunction with a business combination are modifications of share-based payment awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Share-based Payment. Based on Spire managements assessment of the modification and the provisions of ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, incorporating exactEarth and Spires closing stock price and the Canadian dollar to U.S. dollar conversion rate on October 8, 2021, US$1.1 million was immediately expensed at the acquisition date. None of the value was treated as purchase consideration because all outstanding restricted stock unit awards were unvested and Spire was not obligated to issue replacement awards.
All amounts presented on the following tables are denominated in US$.

d. | Deferred Tax Liability |
For Spire, the Acquisition is deemed a nontaxable transaction and as such, the historical tax basis of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, and other tax attributes of exactEarth carryover to Spire. The Canadian statutory tax rate is 26.5%. As a result, based on the adjustments to fair values of identifiable intangible assets, property and equipment, other assets and deferred revenue, the following adjustment to the deferred tax liability estimated using the rate of 26.5% has been made to the pro forma balance sheet:

Note 4. Mapping and policy alignment adjustments related to the Acquisition
Except for the differences in reporting frameworks as described in Note 2 above, Spire management has determined that there were no significant accounting policy differences between Spire and exactEarth and, therefore, no adjustments are necessary to conform exactEarth financial statements to the accounting policies as applied by Spire in the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. This conclusion is subject to change as further assessment is performed and finalized for purchase accounting.
Certain historical balances of the Spire and exactEarth financial statement line items (FSLI) were reclassified to conform to the combined company presentation of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, as presented above. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported total assets, total liabilities, stockholders deficit, or income (loss) of Spire and exactEarth.
