PART III – NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
On March 31, 2025, Spire Global, Inc. (the “Company”) inappropriately filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Annual Report”) prior to the completion of the audit by its independent registered public accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”). PwC did not provide approval to include the audit report with respect to the year ended December 31, 2024 in the Annual Report and did not consent to the incorporation by reference of such audit report in certain registration statements. In addition, the version of the audit report included in the Annual Report, which PwC did not sign, omitted a paragraph disclosing substantial doubt
about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. As a result, the Company intends to file an Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Amendment”) to correct these deficiencies as soon as practicable. The Company is also assessing the impact of the foregoing matters on the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures.
The Company expects to file the Amendment within the fifteen calendar day extension period provided by Rule 12b-25.

Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If the answer is no, identify report(s). x Yes ¨ No

(3) |
Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?
x Yes ¨ No
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
The Company’s news release announcing its financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2024 inappropriately included the word “audited” over the financial statement information. The results of operations included revenue of $110.5 million, operating expenses of $108.6 million (including expenses related to the restatement), and a net loss of $102.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to revenue of $97.6 million, operating expenses of $97.4 million, and net loss of $77.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. Additional information regarding the Company’s results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 are included in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, in the Annual Report, and material changes between the two years are described in Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, in the Annual Report. As disclosed above, the Company inappropriately filed the Annual Report prior to the completion of PwC’s audit, and so the consolidated financial statements contained in the Annual Report are unaudited. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company believes that the Annual Report accurately describes all significant changes in results of operations between the year ended December 31, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023.

Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could have material adverse effects on the Company’s future results. The forward-looking statements included in this filing are made only as of the date hereof. The Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements.
