PL earnings: an expected move of 17.6%, an actual move of 25.3%.Averages over its last nine reports. Here they are.
Every Planet Labs PBC earnings report since Sep 2024: the expected move the options priced the day before, how far the stock moved by the close and by 10:00 the next morning, and the IV crush afterwards, how far implied volatility fell. We read option prices from real quotes at 15:46 ET. Definitions on the methodology page.

PL’s expected move for Wed 9 Dec
There is no reading for this report yet. When there is, it opens free on report day, Wed 9 Dec, with an account.
The options price an earnings move as one number. We take out the drift the stock would have had anyway, then rank what is left, the report’s own part, against PL’s earlier reports. Both were fixed at 15:46 ET the day before, and the history below does the same for every report.
The whole 19.9% is the report
The options expired the session after the report, so the quote has no ordinary days in it and there is nothing to take out. Our estimate of the report’s part, read from eight expiries, agrees within its range: 19.9%, between 18.5 and 21.2. On a longer expiry this step splits the quote in two.
Higher than six of its last eight
We rank only the report’s part, and only against PL’s own earlier reports, so a jumpy stock does not read rich for being jumpy. 19.9% is the 75th percentile: neither rich nor cheap for PL.
Moved 1.3%, inside the 19.9%
−1.3% by the next close, +0.3% by 10:00 the next morning. The rank compares the price with PL’s past and does not forecast the move.
Inside its priced move after two of nine
Past it: Sep 2024 −28.2%, Mar 2025 −10.6%, Jun 2025 +49.4%, Sep 2025 +47.9%, Dec 2025 +35.0%, Mar 2026 +25.5% and Jun 2026 −26.0%.
+49.4% after the Jun 2025 report
The options had priced 13.8%.
Fell after eight of the nine, by 4% to 64%
Median fall 30%, at the strike nearest the price, day before to day after. It rose after one.
Held steady: 17.8% over the last four
From 17.5% over the five before. The report’s own part of the move, with the ordinary drift taken out.

- Rank
- Where the report’s part sits among PL’s own earlier reports, up to twelve, from 0 to 100: 75 on Sep 3 ’26 means it was priced higher than 6 of the 8 before it. Rich and cheap mark the top and bottom of that range. It needs eight earlier reports with a 10:00 move, so the oldest rows have none.

- Crush
- How far implied volatility fell in the report’s expiry, from 15:46 ET the day before to the day after: at the new strike ATM and at the old one As-sold. Open reads it from the option’s 10:00 quotes the next morning, and is blank where there was none.

to the closein betweenClosing prices miss the open
If you hold through the report you meet the open, not the close. We publish both: the move from one close to the next, and where the stock stood at 10:00 the next morning.
the reportordinaryOption prices cover more than the report
An expiry a week out also carries a week of ordinary movement. Comparing two expiries that both contain the report separates the two, and the report's share is the priced move.
the one that movedwhat 30 days averageWe measure the expiry that moved
A 30-day average mixes the expiry holding the report with expiries it never reaches, so it reads shallower than what you held. We read the expiry that holds the report, the day before and the day after, at both strikes.
One expiry contains the report. The 30-day figure is an average that also covers expiries the report never reaches. Every column below leans the same way, so the gap shows on each report, not only in the median.
Each row is one report: the band is what the options priced, the mark is where the stock closed, and the bar runs to where it stood at 10:00 the next morning. On 1 of 9 reports with both, the close and 10:00 pointed opposite ways.
Where the 10:00 number is missing, the cell stays blank instead of borrowing the close, and the data-quality grid below says why. How far apart the two run differs from company to company; this window measures it for PL.
The split reads the report out of the gap between the two lines. The small figure under each date is how many trading sessions the expiry holding the report had left. A shorter one carries the same report over fewer days, so it reads higher without the report being priced any bigger.
Drawn for the last twelve reports, like the other figures on this page. It is history; the current curve is on the board.
Counted over the 9 reports shown. One marker is on every report (macro event in the window), so it describes PL rather than any one quarter. The other nine are on between one and five reports.
Every marker on the reports above is counted here, one cell per report, newest first as in the history table.

What each marker means10 markers · 1 withholds a number
Withheld
- no prediction3 of 9
crush_pred_unavailable - No predicted crush could be frozen for this print, so it has no entry in the scored accuracy record. Never filled in afterwards — a prediction written after the outcome is not one.
- Lands inPred.Error
Shown, kept off the board’s sort
- wide decomposition band3 of 9
decomp_low_confidence - The decomposed implied move has a wide confidence band on this row. The number is published and kept off the board’s sort, because a sort cannot express an error bar; where its rank is shown, it is marked ≈.
- Lands inPriced move
Shown as measured
- macro event in the windowevery report
decomp_macro_window - A scheduled macro event (a CPI print, an FOMC day) falls inside the decomposition window, so a little of the volatility attributed to the event belongs to the calendar instead.
- Lands inPriced move
- crush expiry substituted5 of 9
crush_expiry_substituted - The expiry that would have been measured was not available on both sides of the print, so a neighbouring one stood in. The crush is real; it is measured on a slightly different contract than the label implies.
- Lands inATM
- held to expiry4 of 9
cover_mark_settled - The straddle that was sold expired at one of these closes, so its price there is its settlement value: the distance from the stock to the strike. That exit pays no bid/ask spread, and it ignores the cost of being assigned stock on the in-the-money leg.
- Lands inShort-straddle P&Lon the ticker page, not this one
- an anchor was refused3 of 9
open_crush_anchor_unreliable - At least one observation behind the 10:00 crush was rejected: a price below intrinsic, a crossed quote, or a solve that did not converge. The number here was measured from the anchors that did invert, and is scored normally.
- Lands inOpen
- gapped past the wings3 of 9
open_crush_gap_otm - The stock gapped far enough that the contract sold at T−1 is no longer near the money at the cover, so the as-sold crush there is partly a move along the smile rather than a collapse in volatility.
- Lands inOpen
- noisy IV rank2 of 9
iv_rank_noisy - This name’s quote width is large against its own 52-week volatility range, so the rank carries a read error worth noting. A true property of a quiet name, not a defect — the rank itself is computed normally.
- Lands inIV rankon the ticker page, not this one
- next-morning price from quotes2 of 9
open_crush_restruck_quoted - The option at the 10:00 strike did not trade on both sides between 09:55 and 10:05, so the next-morning volatility was read from the midpoint of its quoted bid and ask over the same ten minutes. Used only when both sides were quoted and the quote was less than 50% wide.
- Lands inOpen
- P&L spread unadjusted1 of 9
pnl_spread_unadjusted - The P&L on this row is not adjusted for the cost of crossing the spread on the way out, so it flatters the exit slightly. Kept out of the headline hit rate rather than averaged in.
