Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Spire Global, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reverse Stock Split

Reported share amounts, including issued and outstanding shares, per share amounts, and reported issued and outstanding warrants and other securities convertible into common stock in these consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been retroactively adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split by applying the Reverse Stock Split ratio. The number of authorized shares of common stock was not impacted by the Reverse Stock Split, and therefore has not been retroactively adjusted.

Liquidity Risks and Uncertainties

Liquidity Risks and Uncertainties

The Company has a history of operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. During the year ended December 31, 2023, net loss was $77,558, cash used in operations was $36,307 and the Company received net proceeds of $7,866 from sales of shares of its Class A common stock under the Equity Distribution Agreement. The Company held cash and cash equivalents of $29,136, excluding restricted cash of $497, and investment in marketable securities of $11,726 as of December 31, 2023.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months from the date of reissuance of these consolidated financial statements is dependent upon its ability to obtain sufficient cash to meet its obligations, including the repayment of all amounts owed pursuant to the Blue Torch Financing Agreement (as amended, and as defined below in Note 7). The Company has failed to meet its leverage ratio and minimum liquidity financial covenants and SEC periodic filing requirement non-financial covenant under the Blue Torch Financing Agreement, and therefore Blue Torch Finance LLC (“Blue Torch”) has the right to accelerate and declare all or any portion of the loans outstanding under the Blue Torch Financing Agreement to be due and payable. Further, upon the filing of this Form 10-K/A, the Company will fail to comply with the non-financial covenant requiring the Company to have a report or opinion of its auditor without an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Based on the Company’s current cash and cash equivalents and investment in marketable securities balances and expected future financial results, if the Transactions (as defined below) do not close, the Company will not have sufficient liquidity to continue operations for at least the next twelve months from the reissuance of these consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, the Company will not have sufficient cash to repay the balance of the loans outstanding under the Blue Torch Financing Agreement in the event Blue Torch declares all or any portion of the loans to be due and payable.

The Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Kpler Holding SA, a Belgian corporation (“Buyer”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell its maritime business to Buyer and enter into certain ancillary agreements (the “Transactions”). The maritime business to be sold pursuant to the Transactions does not include any part of the Company’s satellite network or operations. The purchase price to be paid by Buyer to the Company at the closing of the Transactions is a cash payment based upon an enterprise value of $233,500, subject to customary adjustments. The Transactions also include a twelve-month transition service and data provision agreement for $7,500. The Purchase Agreement provides that the closing of the Transactions is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

On February 10, 2025, the Company filed a complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery against Buyer seeking a grant of specific performance ordering Buyer to satisfy its obligations under the Purchase Agreement and consummate the closing in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. In the complaint, the Company also requested a declaratory judgment declaring that Buyer has breached its obligations under the Purchase Agreement and is not excused from performing its obligations under the Purchase Agreement, including proceeding with the closing.

Kpler removed the matter to the District of Delaware, pursuant to a contract term in the Purchase Agreement promising not to contest removal to that court. The District of Delaware initially selected a March 4 trial date, but on February 26, 2025, the court set a trial date of May 28-30, 2025. There is no assurance as to what action the District of Delaware will take with respect to the proceeding initiated by us and there is no assurance as to whether or not the Transactions will be consummated on the terms contemplated or at all. The amount of any damages which may be sought or obtained from Buyer cannot be determined at this time.

The Company intends to use the proceeds from the closing of the Transactions to repay all amounts owed under the Blue Torch Financing Agreement. However, as described above, there is currently no assurance that the Transactions will close or when the Transactions may close. Given the expected delay in the closing of the Transactions, the Company intends to seek additional equity or debt financing (including securities convertible or exchangeable for equity) and may seek waivers of or amendments to contractual obligations, delay, limit, reduce, or terminate certain commercial efforts, or pursue merger, disposition or other strategies, any of which could adversely affect its business, results of operations, and financial condition. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving any of the foregoing. Due to the Company’s projected cash needs, including amounts owed pursuant to the Blue Torch Financing Agreement and the Company’s breach of its covenants under the Blue Torch Financing Agreement, there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from the date of reissuance of the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Macroeconomic and Geopolitical

Macroeconomic and Geopolitical

Over the past two years, the Company has been impacted by the macroeconomic environment, such as fluctuations in foreign currencies, increasing interest rates and the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

A stronger U.S. dollar relative to the Company's foreign subsidiaries' local functional currencies for the year ended December 31, 2023 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022 negatively impacted the Company’s revenue, since approximately one-third of the Company’s sales are transacted in foreign currencies, though it positively impacted the Company’s expenses, since a majority of the Company’s employees reside in countries outside of the United States.

The macroeconomic environment has caused existing or potential customers to re-evaluate their decision to purchase the Company's offerings, at times resulting in additional customer discounts, extended payment terms, longer sales cycles, and a few contract cancellations.

Increasing interest rates in 2023 as compared to 2022 resulted in higher interest expenses, as the Company’s credit facility is based on a floating interest rate. The Russian invasion of Ukraine and the continued conflict created additional global sanctions, which at times caused scheduling shifts or launch cancellations by third-party satellite launch providers, which has delayed revenue recognition of certain sales contracts.

If any of these factors continue or worsen, and/or if new macroeconomic or geopolitical issues arise, the Company's results and financial condition could be further negatively impacted. The Company cannot predict the timing, strength, or duration of any economic slowdown, downturn, instability, or recovery, generally or within any particular industry or geography. Any downturn of the general economy or industries in which the Company operates would adversely affect its business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Segment Information

Segment Information

The Company operates as one reportable and operating segment, which relates to the sale of subscription-based data, insights, predictive analytics and related project-based services to global customers across a range of industries. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its chief executive officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance and allocating resources.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the

consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management’s significant estimates include assumptions for revenue recognition, which requires estimates of total costs used in measuring the progress of completion for the cost-based input method, allowance for current expected credit losses, valuation of certain assets and liabilities acquired from the acquisition of exactEarth in November 2021 (the “Acquisition”), realizability of deferred income tax assets, and fair value of equity awards, contingent earnout liabilities and warrant liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Based on an evaluation of the lifespans of its in-service satellites and on current capabilities to extend the useful life of in-service satellites via software updates, the Company changed the estimated useful life of its capitalized satellites and related launch costs from three to four years for depreciation purposes. The Company determined it was appropriate to make this change prospectively beginning June 2023. The change in estimated useful life did not have a material impact for the year ended December 31, 2023.

In November 2023, the Company updated the estimated useful lives for 43 capitalized satellites and related launch costs based on updated de-orbit dates. This change represents a change in accounting estimate and the impact of the change was an increase in loss from continuing operations before income taxes of approximately $2,467, or $0.13 per basic and diluted share for the months of November and December 2023.

Foreign Currency Translation

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s foreign subsidiaries, which have defined their functional currency as their local currency, translate their assets and liabilities into U.S. Dollars at the exchange rate existing at the balance sheet date, and translate their results from operations at the average exchange rate for each period. The resulting translation adjustments are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheets, accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated statements of changes in stockholders' equity and as other comprehensive gain (loss) in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in other expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

To account for fair value measurements and disclosures, a fair value hierarchy was established that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is 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 (an exit price). The level of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company uses the following valuation techniques to measure fair value for its assets and liabilities:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.
Cash, Cash Equivalents, Marketable Securities and Restricted Cash

Cash, Cash Equivalents, Marketable Securities and Restricted Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Restricted cash included in Other long-term assets, including restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets, represents amounts pledged as guarantees or collateral for financing arrangements and lease agreements, as contractually required.

The Company invests in highly rated securities, with the primary objective of minimizing the potential risk of principal loss. The Company’s investment policy generally requires securities to be investment grade and limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. The Company’s investments in marketable debt securities have been classified and accounted for as available-for-sale. The Company classifies its marketable debt securities as either short-term or long-term based on each instrument’s underlying contractual maturity date. Unrealized gains and losses on marketable debt securities classified as available-for-sale

are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Interest on securities classified as available-for-sale is included in interest income on the consolidated statements of operations.

The following table shows components of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported on the consolidated balance sheets and in the consolidated statements of cash flows as of and for the years then ended:

Accounts Receivable and Notes Receivable (As Restated)

Accounts Receivable and Notes Receivable (As Restated)

Accounts receivable are stated at the amounts management expects to collect from outstanding balances. An allowance for current expected credit losses is recorded based on historical loss experience, consideration of current and future economic conditions, and evaluation of a customer’s current and future financial condition. Increases and decreases in the allowance for current expected credit losses are included as a component of sales and marketing expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Recoveries of accounts receivable for which an allowance exists, or those that were previously written off, are recorded when received. The Company recorded an expense for credit losses of $640 and $139 on accounts receivables for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Notes receivable and interest on notes receivable are recorded in other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Notes receivable are stated at the amounts management expects to be paid based on the management's knowledge of the customer's financial position. As of December 31, 2023, the Company recorded an allowance for current expected credit loss of $1,218 on the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company generally grants credit to its customers on an unsecured basis. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

Concentrations of Credit Risk (As Restated)

Concentrations of Credit Risk (As Restated)

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, marketable securities, and accounts receivable. The Company typically has cash accounts in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance coverage limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on such accounts, and management believes that the Company’s risk of loss is remote. The Company had $4,500 and $0 note receivable balances outstanding as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The entire balance as of December 31, 2023 is with one customer for which the Company has established a $1,218 allowance for current expected credit loss (Note 10).

The Company has a concentration of contractual revenue arrangements with various government agencies. Entities under common control are reported as a single customer. As of December 31, 2023, the Company did not have any customers that accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had one customer (Customer A noted below) that accounted for 16% of the Company’s total accounts receivable.

The following customers represented 10% or more of the Company’s total revenue:

(1) Consists of multiple U.S. government agencies, of which only one government agency represented greater than 10% of total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

The Company has a concentration in vendor purchases. The Company believes its reliance on its vendors could be shifted over a period of time to alternative vendors should such a change be necessary. If the Company were to be unable to obtain alternative vendors due to factors beyond its control, operations would be disrupted until alternative vendors were secured. The Company had one vendor for the year ended December 31, 2023, and did not have any vendors for the year ended December 31, 2022, from which purchases of equipment, components and services individually represented 10% or more of the Company’s total purchases.

The Company is dependent on third parties to launch its satellites into space, and any launch delay, malfunction, or failure could have a negative impact on revenue and might cause the Company not to be able to accommodate customers with sufficient data to meet minimum service level agreements until replacement satellites are available. The Company also incorporates technology and terrestrial data sets from third parties into its platform and its inability to maintain rights and access to such technology and data sets would harm its business and results of operations.

Property and Equipment (As Restated)

Property and Equipment (As Restated)

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. In-service satellites and related launch costs are capitalized based on the commission date of the underlying asset. Capitalized launch costs for each satellite are allocated based on the total cost of the launch divided by the number of satellites included on that launch. In-service ground stations and related costs are capitalized once signals are transmitted with in-service satellites. In the event of a failed launch or deployment of satellites, the related equipment impairment and launch costs are expensed and recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company also capitalizes certain software costs incurred in connection with developing internal-use software during the project development stage so long as management with the relevant authority authorizes the project, it is probable the project will be completed, and the software will be used to perform the function intended. Costs incurred for enhancements that are expected to result in additional significant functionality are capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the enhancement. Costs related to preliminary project activities and post-implementation operational activities are expensed as incurred. Internal-use software, which consists primarily of the Company’s enterprise software used to build and operate the Company’s satellites, is stated at cost less accumulated amortization.

General maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Significant refurbishments, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected as other expense, net in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Depreciation and amortization are computed utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of depreciable assets in the table below. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the lesser of the life of the asset or the remaining life of the lease.

Equity Method Investments

Equity Method Investments

The Company accounts for equity investments in which it has significant influence, but not a controlling financial interest, using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, investments are initially recorded at cost, less impairment, and subsequently adjusted to recognize the Company’s share of earnings or losses as a component of other expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s equity method investments are required to be reviewed for impairment when it is determined there may be an other-than-temporary loss in value. The Company did not record any impairment losses related to our equity method investments during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Business Combinations

Business Combinations

The Company recognizes identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values. Such valuations require us to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date with respect to intangible assets. While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions as part of the purchase price allocation process to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed, these estimates which include, but are not limited to, future revenue growth, margins, customer retention rates, technology life, royalty rates, expected use of acquired assets, and discount rates, are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement.

Goodwill is measured as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred and included in the general and administrative expenses line item in the consolidated statements of operations. The authoritative guidance allows a measurement period of up to one year from the date of acquisition to make adjustments to the preliminary allocation of the purchase price. As a result, during the measurement period the Company may record adjustments to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill to the extent that it identifies adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in business acquisitions. The Company first performs a qualitative assessment of goodwill annually in the fourth quarter, and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. If it is determined in the qualitative assessment that the fair value of the Company's single reporting unit is more likely than not below its carrying amount, then the Company will perform a quantitative impairment test. The quantitative goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. Any excess in the carrying value of the goodwill over its fair value is recognized as an impairment loss. For purposes of goodwill impairment testing, the Company has one reporting unit. The annual goodwill impairment assessment performed in the fourth quarter of 2023 indicated that the fair value significantly exceeded the carrying value of goodwill.

Intangible assets consist of acquired intangible assets which include customer relationships, developed technology and trade names and the costs to obtain patents and perpetual nonexclusive license rights for the use of intellectual property. Acquired intangible assets, other than goodwill, are amortized over their estimated useful lives, ranging from 1 to 12 years, based upon the estimated economic value derived from the related intangible asset. Significant judgment is used in determining fair values of acquired intangible assets and their estimated useful lives. Fair value and useful life determinations may be based on, among other factors, estimates of future expected cash flows, royalty cost savings and appropriate discount rates used in calculating present values.

Intangible assets are tested for impairment whenever there are indicators of impairment. The Company did not recognize any impairment charges for intangible assets for the year ended December 31, 2023, but recorded an impairment charge relating to patents of $72 for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company assesses potential impairments to long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. An impairment is considered to exist if the total estimated future cash flows on an undiscounted basis are less than the carrying amount of the assets or asset groups. If impairment exists, the impairment loss is measured and recorded based on undiscounted estimated future cash flows. In estimating future cash flows, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of cash flows from other asset groups. The Company recognized impairment charges of $747 on decommissioned satellites and $277 on other long-lived assets for the year ended December 31, 2023, and $549 on decommissioned satellites and $143 on other long-lived assets for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Deferred Offering Costs

Deferred Offering Costs

The Company capitalizes within other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets certain legal, accounting and other third-party fees that are directly related to the Company’s in-process equity financing until such financings are consummated. After consummation of the equity financing, these costs are recorded as a reduction of the proceeds received from the offering. Should a planned equity financing be abandoned, terminated or significantly delayed, the deferred offering costs are written off to operating expenses. There were no deferred offering costs capitalized as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Debt Issuance Costs

Debt Issuance Costs

For long-term debt, the Company presents debt issuance costs on the consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt facility. Debt issuance costs and the fair value assigned to stock warrants issued related to term loans are amortized over the respective term of the debt facility using the effective interest method.

Warrants

Warrants

The Company generally classifies warrants for the purchase of shares of its common stock as liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets unless the warrants meet certain specific criteria that require the warrants to be classified within stockholders’ equity. Those warrants accounted for as liabilities are freestanding financial instruments that may require the Company to transfer assets upon exercise. The warrant liability is initially recorded at fair value upon the date of issuance of each warrant and is subsequently remeasured to fair value at each reporting date. Changes in the fair value of the warrant liabilities are recognized as a component in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations. Changes in the fair value of the warrant liabilities will continue to be recognized until the warrants are exercised, expire or qualify for equity classification. Warrants classified as equity are initially recorded at fair value on the date of issuance and recorded in additional paid-in capital on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets until the warrants are exercised or expire.

On June 13, 2022, in connection with the Blue Torch Financing Agreement, the Company issued warrants to Blue Torch, which were exercisable for an aggregate of 437,024 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock with a per share exercise price of $16.08 (the “2022 Blue Torch Warrants”). Additionally, in connection with the closing of the financing, the Company issued a warrant to Urgent Capital LLC for introducing the Company to the Lenders, which is exercisable for an aggregate of 24,834 shares of the Company's Class A common stock with a per share exercise price of $16.08 (the “Urgent Warrants”). On September 27, 2023, the Company issued new warrants to certain Blue Torch affiliates that are exercisable for an additional 597,082 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a per share exercise price of $5.44 (the “2023 Blue Torch Warrants" and together with the 2022 Blue Torch Warrants and the Urgent Warrants, the “Credit Agreement Warrants”).

The Company assumed 1,437,499 publicly-traded warrants (“Public Warrants”) and 825,000 private placement warrants issued by NavSight (“Private Warrants” and, together with the Public Warrants, the “Common Stock Warrants”) upon the Merger, all of which were issued in connection with NavSight’s initial public offering and entitled holders to purchase one share of the Company's Class A common stock at an exercise price of $92.00 per share.

The Company evaluated the Credit Agreement Warrants and the Common Stock Warrants and concluded that they do not meet the criteria to be classified within stockholders’ equity. The agreement governing the Credit Agreement Warrants and the Common Stock Warrants includes a provision that could result in a different settlement value for the Common Stock Warrants depending on their holder. Because the holder of an instrument is not an input into the pricing of a fixed-for-fixed option on the Company’s Class A common stock, the Common Stock Warrants are not considered to be indexed to the Company’s own stock. As the Common Stock Warrants meet the definition of a derivative, the Company recorded these warrants as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value based on the Black Scholes model. Subsequent changes in their respective fair values are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations at each reporting date. Changes in the fair value of the warrant liabilities will continue to be recognized until the warrants are exercised, expire, or qualify for equity classification.

Contingent Earnout Liability

Contingent Earnout Liability

In connection with the Merger, eligible Spire equity holders are entitled to receive additional shares of the Company's Class A common stock upon the Company achieving certain earnout triggering events. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815-40, the earnout shares are not indexed to the Company's Class A common stock and therefore were accounted for as a liability and an offset to additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheets at the reverse recapitalization date and subsequently remeasured at each reporting date with changes in fair value recorded as a component of other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations.

The contingent earnout liability is categorized as a Level 3 fair value measurement using the Monte Carlo model (Note 9) because the Company estimates projections during the earnout period utilizing unobservable inputs. Contingent earnout payments involve certain assumptions requiring significant judgment and actual results may differ from assumed and estimated amounts. The assumptions utilized in the calculation are based on the achievement of certain stock price milestones, including the current price of our Class A common stock, expected volatility, risk-free rate, expected term and expected dividend yield.

Revenue Recognition (As Restated)

Revenue Recognition (As Restated)

To determine revenue recognition, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue as or when the Company satisfies the performance obligation.

The Company generates revenue from the following main solutions: Data, Space Services and Research & Development Services.

Data Solutions

The Company offers the following three data solutions to customers:

Maritime: precise space-based data used for highly accurate ship monitoring, ship safety and route optimization.
Aviation: precise space-based data used for highly accurate aircraft monitoring, aircraft safety and route optimization.
Weather: precise space-based data used for highly accurate weather forecasting.

The Company recognizes revenue for each separately identifiable performance obligation in a Data Solutions contract representing a promise to transfer data or a distinct service to a customer. In most cases, data provided under the Company’s Data Solutions contracts are accounted for as a single performance obligation due to the integrated nature of the Company’s precise space-based data.

The Company determined that each data access subscription provides a series of distinct services in which the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the data service. Therefore, for subscription-based data services, the Company recognizes revenue ratably over the subscription period. Revenue is recognized upon delivery for data products such as archive data and custom reports, which are performance obligations satisfied at a point in time upon transfer of control.

Space Services Solution

The Company also provides an innovative “space-as-a-service” business model through its Space Services solution. The customers in these contracts require the use of a satellite that, in addition to other general data service capabilities, has certain sensors or capabilities that are custom designed and integrated into the satellite for a specific mission, together with other data transmission and operating infrastructure. Generally, the Company and the customer collaborate on the satellite design. Either the customer or the Company may provide a payload component that is integrated into the satellite, depending on the terms of the contract. Any customer-provided components are generally a form of customer-provided material.

As part of the Space Services solution, the Company performs various activities that range from designing, building, and launching the integrated satellites to enable the customer to send operational requests to the payload through a Company-provided interface. The Company provides a significant service of integrating all the services within the contract into a combined output represented by the Space Services, a stand-ready promise to provide a daily suite of services related to the capture and transmittal of data to the customer based on the customer’s operational requests that is comprised of a series of distinct days of service. The arrangement may also include options granting a material right to extend the service term for the Space Services. This evaluation is performed on a contract-by-contract basis.

Third parties may be involved as part of the arrangement to provide services, such as launch or telecommunications support. The Company determined that it controls the services provided to customers and is therefore the principal (i.e., revenue is recognized on a gross basis).

The transaction price in a typical contract includes fixed amounts of monthly set-up and service fees. The contracts may also include variable consideration that decreases the transaction price, such as service-level credits when agreed upon service levels are not met, which historically has not been material to the arrangement. The Company allocates service-level credits entirely to the distinct day of service to which they relate. Additionally, these arrangements do not contain significant financing components as any timing difference between payment and transfer of goods and services arises for reasons other than financing.

In some arrangements, the customer may provide a payload to the Company to be used in providing the service to the customer. The Company evaluates whether the customer payload is noncash consideration received from the customer. The Company determined that customer-provided payloads are not noncash consideration because the Company does not obtain control of such payloads.

When there is an option granting a material right in an arrangement, the Company will allocate the transaction price to the Space Services and to the options granting material rights by applying the practical alternative approach (i.e., allocate the transaction price to the optional services by reference to the services expected to be provided and the corresponding expected consideration).

Revenue from Space Services Contracts are recognized over time using an output measure of progress based on satellite months consumed, beginning when the service start date commences for satellites. The consideration allocated to options granting a material right are recognized when (or as) the underlying future services are transferred, or when the options expire.

Generally, Space Services solution arrangements do not contain a lease because the Company is able to derive more than insignificant economic benefits from the various capabilities of the integrated satellites. However, in the limited instances when the customer obtains substantially all of the economic benefits determined at contract inception, the Space Services solution arrangements are determined to include an embedded lease of an integrated satellite(s) to the customer. For such arrangements, the Company has determined that that the customer is the deemed owner of the satellite(s) during the construction period. As a result, the Company determined it is providing manufacturing and launch services for those arrangements, and accounts for them based on guidance for other contracts with customers. The Company typically identifies the following performance obligations in these arrangements: (1) manufacturing services, (2) launch services and (3) a stand-ready obligation to provide Space Services that is comprised of a series of distinct days of service. Arrangements may also include options granting a material right to extend the service term for the Space Services. The Company allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations based on the Company’s estimates of standalone selling price. The Company recognizes revenue for the manufacturing services over time using an input measure of progress based on costs incurred. The Company recognizes revenue from launch services at a point in time when the satellites are launched into the orbit. The Company recognizes revenue for Space Services over time using an output measure of progress based on satellite months consumed beginning when the services

have commenced. If there are options granting a material right in the arrangement, the consideration allocated to the options granting material rights is recognized when (or as) the underlying future services are transferred, or when the options expire.

Research and Development Services Solution

The Company also offers research and development services (“R&D Services”) to third parties, frequently including governmental entities, for the advancement of contracted satellite technologies. Such services are typically contracted for a specific research goal that may or may not contribute to a broader satellite technology. In addition to providing research and development services, the Company grants the counterparty a license to the developed intellectual property. Generally, the Company and the customer share the costs and benefits of these R&D Services. Within R&D Services Contracts, there is a single, combined performance obligation consisting of research and development activities, license(s) of developed intellectual property, and regular research and development progress meetings, and the transaction price is typically comprised of variable consideration including refundable, up-front cash advances and subsequent milestone-based payments. Such consideration is not expected to be constrained. There is no noncash consideration, no consideration payable, nor a significant financing component. Further, because there generally is only one research and development performance obligation, transaction price allocation is not required. The counterparty obtains control of the developed intellectual property as the Company creates and enhances it, and the related benefits transfer throughout the term over which the obligation is satisfied. Revenue is recognized over time, utilizing an input method based on costs incurred as the best approximation of progress completed to date (i.e., cost-to-cost measure of progress).

Accounting for those R&D Services Contracts requires significant judgment relative to estimating total contract revenues and costs; in particular, assumptions relative to the amount of time to complete the contract, including the assessment of the nature and complexity of the work to be performed. The Company’s estimates are based upon the professional knowledge and experience of its engineers, program managers and other personnel.

For all revenue solutions, the Company has elected to exclude from transaction price taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with the specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the entity from a customer.

Contract Assets and Liabilities (As Restated)

Contract Assets and Liabilities (As Restated)

For each of the Company’s contracts, the timing of revenue recognition, customer billings, and cash collections determines the recorded accounts receivable, contract assets, and contract liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Payment terms and conditions generally include a requirement to pay within 30 days. When revenue is recognized in advance of customer invoicing, a contract asset is recorded for the unbilled receivable. Conversely, contract liabilities are recorded when the Company has an unconditional right to consideration before it has satisfied a performance obligation. Contract liabilities consist of funds received in advance of revenue recognition from subscription services or Space Services that are subsequently recognized when the revenue recognition criteria are met. The non-current portion of contract liabilities consists of funds received in advance of revenue recognition from subscription services or Space Services that have remaining contractual obligations greater than one year from the balance sheet date.

Deferred Contract Costs

Deferred Contract Costs

Sales commissions earned by the Company’s employees are considered incremental costs of obtaining a contract. An asset is recognized for sales commissions if the Company expects the period of benefit from these costs to be more than one year. The Company amortizes the deferred contract costs on a straight-line basis over the period of expected benefit, which is typically 12 to 24 months, consistent with the pattern of revenue recognition of the related performance obligation. The amortized costs are recorded in sales and marketing expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company expenses sales commissions as incurred when the period of benefit is less than one year.

Deferred contract costs are included in other current assets, for the current portion, and other long-term assets, for the non-current portion, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Deferred contract costs were $926 and $890, at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, of which $487 and $439, respectively, were classified as current. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $490 and $809, respectively, as amortization of deferred contract costs in sales and marketing expense.

Cost of Revenue (As Restated)

Cost of Revenue (As Restated)

Cost of revenue consists primarily of personnel costs, depreciation, hosted infrastructure and high-power computing costs, third-party operating and royalty costs associated with delivering data and services to customers, costs associated with R&D Services Contracts, allocated overhead costs and amortization of purchased intangibles (e.g., customer relationships and developed technology) associated with the Acquisition. Overhead costs primarily include allocable amounts of utilities, rent, depreciation expense on assets used directly in revenue-producing activities, indirect materials, production and test administration expenses, and repairs and maintenance.

In certain Space Services solution arrangements in which the customer is determined to be the deemed owner of the satellite during the construction period, the costs incurred to fulfill the manufacturing performance obligation are expensed as incurred as cost of revenue, following the cost-to-cost progress measure. Costs associated with the launch performance obligation are capitalized as a cost to fulfill the contract until launch occurs, and recognized as cost of revenue at the point in time control of the launch services passes to the customer. As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the launch costs capitalized as cost to fulfill the contract related to such arrangements were $7,585 and $0, respectively. Costs associated with Space Services Contracts performance obligations will generally be recognized as incurred.

Research and Development Costs (As Restated)

Research and Development Costs (As Restated)

Research and development expenses consist primarily of employee-related expenses, third-party consulting fees, and computing costs which are expensed as incurred. Costs associated with R&D Services Contracts are included as part of cost of revenue, described above. Amounts included as research and development expense are from the Company’s separate research and development efforts.
Leases (As Restated)

Leases (As Restated)

The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception. The Company assess whether the Company (as potential lessee) or customer (as potential lessor) has the right to direct the use of an identified asset over the period of use by assessing whether the entity has the right to substantially all of the economic benefits and has the ability to determine how and for what purpose the identified asset is used.

Lessee arrangements

For lessee arrangements, operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are presented as a separate line item on the consolidated balance sheets. With respect to lease liabilities, the current portion is presented along with the other accrued expense line item and non-current operating lease liabilities are presented as separate line items on our consolidated balance sheets. The current operating lease liabilities are presented within the other accrued expense line within the consolidated balance sheets.

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term, discounted using the discount rate for the lease at lease commencement. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable for the Company’s leases, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date as the discount rate. The incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest the Company expects to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms in a similar economic environment. ROU assets are recognized at commencement date at the value of the lease liability, adjusted for any prepayments, lease incentives received, and initial direct costs incurred. The lease term may include periods covered by options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option as well as periods beyond the termination date when we are reasonably certain not to exercise a related termination option.

In the consolidated statements of operations, lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company has elected the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from the lease components to which they relate, and instead account for them as a single lease component for all underlying asset classes. Accordingly, all related costs are accounted for under the lease accounting model. In addition, the Company elected to apply the short-term lease

exception for all underlying asset classes. That is, leases with an initial lease term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the consolidated balance sheets, but rather expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Lessor arrangements

Certain Space Services solution arrangements are determined to contain an embedded lease when the customer obtains substantially all of the economic benefits from the integrated satellite(s) that is to be constructed for the arrangement. In those instances, the customer is determined to be the deemed owner of the integrated satellite during the construction period, and the transaction is accounted for as a manufacturing and launch service under guidance for other customer contracts. Refer to the “Space Services” subsection within the “Revenue Recognition” section above for more details on these types of arrangements.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of employee-related expenses, sales commissions, marketing and advertising costs, costs incurred in the development of customer relationships, brand development costs, allowance for current expected credit losses, travel-related expenses and amortization of purchased intangible backlog associated with the Acquisition.

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $1,103 and $933, respectively, and is included in sales and marketing expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

General and Administrative Costs

General and Administrative Costs

General and administrative expenses consist of employee-related expenses for personnel in the Company’s executive, finance and accounting, facilities, legal, human resources, and management information systems functions, as well as other administrative employees. In addition, general and administrative expenses include fees related to third-party legal counsel, fees related to accounting, tax and audit costs, office facilities costs, software subscription costs, and other corporate costs.

Employee Benefit Plan

Employee Benefit Plan

The Company has a qualified retirement plan which covers all employees who meet certain eligibility requirements. Plan matching contributions, discretionary profit-sharing contributions, and qualified nonelective contributions may be made to the 401(k) salary deferral plan at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company did not make any matching contributions, discretionary profit-sharing contributions and/or qualified nonelective contributions during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

The Company has defined contribution pension plans at its foreign subsidiaries which cover all employees who meet certain eligibility requirements. The contributions made by the Company under these plans were $1,838 and $737 during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has an equity incentive plan under which the Company grants stock-based awards to employees and non-employees. The Company accounts for stock-based awards in accordance with ASC 718, Stock-Based Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense, based on estimated fair values, for all stock-based awards made to employees and non-employees. For stock options, the fair value is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of assumptions, including the fair value of the underlying Class A common stock, the expected term of the option, the expected volatility of the price of the Company’s Class A common stock, risk-free interest rates, and the expected dividend yield of the Company’s Class A common stock. For restricted stock units ("RSU") with service-based vesting conditions, the fair value is calculated based upon the Company’s closing stock price on the date of grant using the intrinsic value method. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period and forfeitures are accounted for as they occur.

Key assumptions used in the determination of fair value for stock options are as follows:

Expected term. Because of the lack of sufficient historical data, the Company uses the simple average of the vesting period and the contractual term to estimate the period the stock options are expected to be outstanding.
Expected volatility. The Company determines the expected stock price volatility based on the historical volatility of the Company's Class A common stock and the historical volatilities of an industry peer group.
Expected dividend yield. The Company does not use a dividend rate due to the fact that the Company has never declared or paid cash dividends on its Class A common stock and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future.
Risk-free interest rate. The Company bases its interest rate on a treasury instrument for which the term is consistent with the expected life of the stock options.
Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company was incorporated in the state of Delaware as a C corporation. Deferred income taxes of the Company are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. All deferred tax assets and liabilities within each particular tax jurisdiction are offset and presented as a noncurrent deferred tax asset or liability. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization include the history of taxable income or loss, forecasts of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize net deferred tax assets.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes in accordance with ASC 740-10, Income Taxes, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return, should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Under this guidance, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties, if any, as a component of income tax expense on the consolidated statements of operations.

Beginning in 2022, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act") requires taxpayers to capitalize research and development expenses with amortization periods over five years for U.S. and fifteen years for foreign, which reduced the Company’s taxable loss, and created a new deferred tax asset for capitalized research and development costs, and corresponding adjustments to tax on foreign source income through global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI"), all of which have been accounted for in determining the Company’s tax provision or benefit.

The Company reports income taxes in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") ASC 740, Income Taxes, which requires an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax amounts are determined by using the enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance reduces the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

Related Parties (As Restated)

Related Parties (As Restated)

In conjunction with the Company's acquisition of exactEarth in November 2021, Myriota Pty Ltd ("Myriota"), an existing Spire customer, became a related party as a result of exactEarth's approximately 13% ownership of Myriota. As of December 31, 2023, the Company's investment in Myriota, in the amount of $2,216, was included in other long-term assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company accounts for this investment using the equity method of accounting. The Company's share of earnings or losses on the investment is recorded based on a one-month lag, due to the timing of receipt of financial statements from Myriota, as a component of other (expense) income, net in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company generated $897 and $2,278 in revenue from Myriota during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and had no accounts receivable as of December 31, 2023 and $170 of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2022, from Myriota.

Comprehensive Loss

Comprehensive Loss

Comprehensive loss is comprised of net loss and other comprehensive loss consisting of foreign currency translation adjustments and net unrealized gain and loss on investments.

Net Loss Per Share

Net Loss Per Share

The Company follows the two-class method when computing net income (loss) per share as the Company has issued shares that meet the definition of participating securities. The Company has two types of common stock, Class A and Class B. Class B common stock has no economic rights, and therefore has been excluded from the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share. The two-class method determines net income (loss) per share for each class of common and participating securities according to dividends declared, if any, and participating rights in undistributed earnings. The two-class method requires income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between common and participating securities based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all income for the period had been distributed.

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) is computed by adjusting net income (loss) to reallocate undistributed earnings based on the potential impact of dilutive securities. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the diluted net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including potential dilutive common shares assuming the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents.

JOBS Act Accounting Election

JOBS Act Accounting Election

The Company is provided the option to adopt new or revised accounting guidance under the requirements provided to an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act either (1) within the same periods as those otherwise applicable to public business entities, or (2) within the same time periods as non-public business entities, including early adoption when permissible. With the exception of certain accounting standards where the Company elected to early adopt when permissible, the Company has elected to adopt new or revised accounting guidance within the same time period as non-public business entities, as indicated below.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In October 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805), Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to recognition of an acquired contract liability and payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within that reporting period, and should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. The adoption of ASU 2021-08 as of January 1, 2023 did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50), guidance on modifying the disclosure requirements to enhance the transparency of supplier finance programs including disclosure of the key terms of the program, the amount outstanding that remains unpaid by the buyer as of the end of the annual period, a description of where those obligations are presented in the balance sheets, and a roll forward of those obligations during the annual period. The amendments in this update are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2022-04 as of January 1, 2023 did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases – Common Control Arrangements (Topic 842), to improve the accounting for amortizing leasehold improvements associated with arrangements between entities under common control. The amendment requires that leasehold improvements be amortized by the lessee over the useful life of the leasehold improvements to the common control group (regardless of the lease term) as long as the lessee controls the use of the underlying asset through a lease. Additionally, leasehold improvements should be accounted for as a transfer between entities under common control

through an adjustment to equity when the lessee no longer controls the use of the underlying asset. The amendments in this update are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-05, Business Combinations – Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Recognition and Initial Measurement. The amendments in this ASU are intended to facilitate consistency in the application of accounting guidance upon the formation of entities qualifying as joint ventures ("JVs"). This ASU generally requires the use of business combinations accounting at the JV formation date, which would result in the contributed assets/liabilities being revalued to fair value and potentially result in the recognition of goodwill and other intangibles on the JV’s financial statements. However, this ASU does not alter the ongoing accounting for the JV’s operations. This guidance is effective for JVs with formation dates on or after January 1, 2025. The Company does not expect the standard to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-7, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily though enhanced disclosures about significant expenses. The amendments will require public entities to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within segment profit and loss. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and will be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the ASU to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-9, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the ASU to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.
