5. Planet Labs PBC (NYSE:PL)

Planet Labs saw its share prices jump by 9.87 percent on Wednesday to close at $30.71 apiece, amid increasing appetite for space stocks, backed by SpaceX’s looming initial public offering (IPO).

Planet Labs PBC (NYSE:PL) rallied alongside its counterparts, including Intuitive Machines Inc. and Firefly Aerospace Inc., following news that the Elon Musk-led company has lined up 21 banks for its mega IPO, potentially valuing the firm at $1.75 trillion.

SpaceX is attempting to raise more than $75 billion in what could be one of the largest IPOs in history.

In other news, Planet Labs PBC (NYSE:PL) is gearing up for expansion in Germany after officially starting the recruitment of highly-skilled German talent to operationalize its upcoming satellite manufacturing facility in Berlin. The initiative forms part of its plan to double the production capacity of its next-generation, high-resolution Pelican fleet, while reinforcing the European country’s role as a hub for advanced aerospace engineering.

Berlin has served as Planet Labs PBC’s (NYSE:PL) headquarters for more than 10 years, acting as the Mission Control center for its global fleet of about 200 satellites. Its expansion would support the company’s $900 million worth of backlogs for the current fiscal period, which marked a 79 percent growth from fiscal year 2026.

“With this excellent backlog as well as our healthy pipeline, we project strong growth for this year and beyond,” said Planet Labs PBC (NYSE:PL) Chairman and CEO Will Marshall. Some 70 individuals are targeted to be hired in addition to the existing 150 employees, including high-level leadership and specialized technical roles such as director of manufacturing, mission director for constellation services, and multiple engineering roles.
