Controls and Procedures

E valuation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in company reports filed

or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule(s) 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2021.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We performed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2023.

Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2023 because of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below.

In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance, and not absolute assurance, that the desired control objectives of the system are met.

In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events.

Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals in all future circumstances.

Accordingly, our disclosure controls and procedures must be designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of our disclosure control system are met.

Notwithstanding the material weaknesses described in Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, our management has concluded that our consolidated financial statements for the periods covered by and included in this Annual Report are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for each of the periods presented herein.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

This Form 10-K/A does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting, or an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm, as allowed by the SEC for reverse acquisitions between an issuer and a private operating company when it is not possible to conduct an assessment of the private operating company’s internal control over financial reporting in the period between the consummation date of the reverse acquisition and the date of management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting (pursuant to Section 215.02 of the SEC Division of Corporation Finance’s Regulation S-K Compliance & Disclosure Interpretations).

As discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-K/A, we completed the Merger on August 16, 2021.

Prior to the Merger, we were a special purpose acquisition company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more operating businesses.

As a result, previously existing internal controls are no longer applicable or comprehensive enough as of the assessment date as our operations prior to the Merger were insignificant compared to those of the consolidated entity post-Merger.

The design of internal control over financial reporting for Spire Global, Inc.

post-Merger has required and will continue to require significant time and resources from management and other personnel.

As a result, management was unable, without incurring unreasonable effort or expense to conduct an assessment of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021.

Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act).

Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with GAAP.

Management conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The material weaknesses are as follows:

The following material weaknesses were identified:

We did not design and maintain an effective control environment commensurate with the financial reporting requirements of a public company.

Specifically, we lacked a sufficient number of professionals with an appropriate level of internal controls and accounting knowledge, training, and experience to appropriately analyze, record and disclose accounting matters timely and accurately.

Additionally, the lack of a sufficient number of professionals resulted in an inability to consistently establish appropriate authorities and responsibilities in pursuit of our financial reporting objectives, as demonstrated by, amongst other things, insufficient segregation of duties in our finance and accounting functions.

Additionally, the lack of a sufficient number of professionals resulted in an inability to consistently establish appropriate authorities and responsibilities in pursuit of our financial reporting objectives, as demonstrated by, among other things, insufficient segregation of duties in our finance and accounting functions.

This material weakness contributed to the following additional material weaknesses.

4 unchanged sentences

The material weaknesses above resulted in certain immaterial audit adjustments, which were recorded prior to the issuance of the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Additionally, these material weaknesses could result in a misstatement of substantially all of our accounts or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

We did not design and maintain effective controls over the accounting for our Space Services and R&D Services solutions contracts with customers.

Specifically, we did not design and maintain effective controls over the identification of performance obligations to ensure revenue is recognized at the time performance obligations are satisfied, the identification and accounting for embedded leases, the classification and accounting for costs incurred in connection with performing services, and the recognition of allowances for current expected credit losses.

This material weakness resulted in the restatement of our previously filed financial statements for the Affected Periods.

We did not design and maintain effective controls related to the identification of and accounting for certain non-routine, unusual or complex transactions, including the proper application of GAAP to such transactions.

Specifically, we did not design and maintain:

controls to timely identify and account for warrant instruments, which resulted in the restatement of the previously issued financial statements of NavSight related to adjustments to warrant liabilities and equity;

controls to account for business combinations, including the associated valuation estimates and the completeness and accuracy of the opening balance sheet, which did not result in a misstatement to our consolidated financial statements;

controls to timely identify and account for the fair value of the contingent earnout liability, which resulted in an error in the fair value of the contingent earnout liability in our previously issued consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 that are being restated in this Form 10-K/A and in the restatement of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

We did not design and maintain effective controls over certain information technology (“IT”) general controls for information systems that are relevant to the preparation of our financial statements.

controls to timely identify and account for the fair value of the contingent earnout liability, which resulted in an error in the fair value of the contingent earnout liability in, and the restatement of, our previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for each of the interim periods ended September 30, 2021, March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022 and our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Additionally, each of the material weaknesses described above could result in a misstatement of substantially all of our accounts or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

Specifically, we did not design and maintain:

4 unchanged sentences

Accordingly, management has determined these deficiencies in the aggregate constitute a material weakness.

In Item 9A of our original Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, management previously disclosed that material weaknesses i, ii, iii, v, and vi above existed as of December 31, 2023.

However, our management has subsequently determined that material weakness iv above also existed as of December 31, 2023.

Management has concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K/A does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

Remediation Efforts on Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In response to the material weaknesses identified, we have implemented changes to our internal control over financial reporting throughout 2021, and will begin or continue performing the following remedial actions in 2022:

Control Environment and Hiring Key Personnel

Our remediation actions related to improving our control environment and hiring key personnel include the following:

In Q4 2021, the Company has hired additional accounting and IT personnel, to bolster its reporting, technical accounting, and IT capabilities to a level commensurate with the internal control requirements of a public company.

Additionally, the Company has realigned and doubled its accounting group and established a managerial position to manage financial systems.

The Company continues to monitor personnel requirements and increase headcount and roles where needed to address corporate control structure, in addition to providing necessary ongoing training to its finance and accounting personnel.

In response to the material weaknesses identified, we have implemented several changes to our internal control over financial reporting and will continue performing remedial actions, as described below.

The remediation and ultimate resolution of each of the material weaknesses will be reviewed with the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.

We have made progress to address the material weaknesses related to the control environment, as described below:

Key Professionals

In fiscal 2022 and 2023 and continuing to date, we identified and hired a number of professionals with appropriate levels of internal controls and accounting knowledge to improve the overall domestic and international financial accounting and reporting departments.

The positions hired include chief accounting officer, director of accounting and Americas controller, director of technical accounting, accounting manager, senior and staff accountants, senior financial systems manager, and system administrator.

In addition, we engaged with external consultants and experts to provide technical accounting and financial systems services.

The Company continues to monitor personnel requirements and expertise needed to have an effective control environment, including providing necessary ongoing training to its finance and accounting personnel.

Risk Assessment

Our remediation actions related to improving the controls related to our risk assessment process include the following:

The Company engaged a third party to assist in designing and implementing a risk assessment process to identify and evaluate changes in the Company’s business and the impact on its internal controls.

The Company conducted a financial risk assessment to identify key business processes and establish internal materiality thresholds.

The Company performed walkthroughs of all key processes, identified key controls, and developed narratives describing risk points, processes, and corresponding controls.

A Risk and Control Matrix (RCM) has been created that will serve as the basis for the 2022 testing program.

The Company engaged a third party to complete an initial Enterprise Risk Assessment.

The Company identified key risks for technology-based organizations and interviewed management team members and the Chair of the Audit Committee.

The Company reviewed responses received, compiled a list of identified risks, and developed heat maps to depict the likelihood, impact, and preparedness of the Company to respond to the

identified risks.

During 2022, actions plan will be developed to address the risks, a testing plan will be created and executed, and results will be reviewed with management.

We engaged a third-party consulting firm to assist in designing and implementing a risk assessment process to identify and evaluate changes in the Company’s business and the impact on its internal controls.

During fiscal 2023, we conducted a financial risk assessment to identify key business processes and establish internal materiality thresholds.

We performed walkthroughs of all key processes, identified key controls, and developed narratives describing risk points, processes, and corresponding controls.

A Risk and Control Matrix (RCM) was created to serve as the basis for a testing program in progress.

We engaged a third-party consulting firm to complete an initial Enterprise Risk Assessment (“ERA”).

With the assistance of the consulting firm, we identified key risks for technology-based organizations and interviewed management team members and the Chair of the Audit Committee to discuss key risk areas.

We reviewed responses received, compiled a list of identified risks, and developed heat maps to depict the likelihood, impact, and preparedness of the Company to respond to the identified risks.

Action and testing plans are being developed to address the risks and testing is in process, after which results will be monitored

and reviewed with management.

We are planning to perform an annual ERA to confirm that key risks remain current and relevant, and to identify any new key risk areas.

Segregation of Duties

Our remediation actions related to improving the controls related to segregation of duties include the following:

The Company has designed and implemented controls to prevent or detect a material misstatement resulting from certain personnel with the ability to create and post journal entries within the Company’s general ledger system.

Management reviews all journal entries initiated and approved to ensure appropriate segregation of duties.

These controls will be performed until automated controls are designed and operating effectively to ensure appropriate segregation of duties.

The Company has designed and implemented controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties related to account reconciliation preparation and review.

In Q4 2021, the Company engaged a third party to complete an initial Segregation of Duties Assessment.

In 2022, the Company will complete a thorough segregation of duties analysis across all processes and locations, including establishing appropriate authorities and responsibilities.

During fiscal year 2022, we completed our initial assessment on segregation of duties with assistance from a third-party consulting firm and began our analysis across all processes and locations, including establishing appropriate authorities and responsibilities.

During 2022, we designed and implemented controls over the segregation of duties related to journal entries and account reconciliations, including the implementation of automated controls, which replaced previously manual detective controls, designed to prevent the ability for the same person to create and post journal entries in our general ledger system.

With the hiring of additional personnel including a senior financial system manager in late 2022, and an accounts receivable specialist and a senior accountant in 2023, we were able to implement additional automated controls and to further segregate the preparation and review of account reconciliations during fiscal year 2023.

We are in the process of testing the controls designed over segregation of duties.

Non-routine, Unusual or Complex Transactions

Our remediation actions related to improving our controls related to accounting for non-routine, unusual, or complex transactions include the following:

The Company will design and implement controls to timely identify and account for non-routine, unusual or complex transactions, including controls over the preparation and review of accounting memoranda addressing these matters.

The Company will incorporate testing of controls over non-routine, unusual or complex transactions into its overall testing program during 2022.

Since the Merger occurred in August 2021, warrant instruments are accounted for in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy which ensures proper application of GAAP to such transactions.

Over the course of 2022, we hired key accounting personnel and engaged with third-party technical accounting experts to improve our controls related to the identification of and proper application of GAAP accounting for non-routine, unusual, or complex transactions.

Since the Merger that occurred in August 2021, warrant instruments have been accounted for in accordance with the Company’s accounting policies based on GAAP.

During the fourth quarter of 2022, Management trained the accounting team and designed new controls to timely identify and account for the fair value of the contingent earnout liability, and hired a third-party technical accounting firm to assist with the proper application of GAAP for non-routine, unusual, or complex transactions, including any business combinations that may arise in the future.

We have tested the controls designed for non-routine, unusual or complex transactions and are in the process of monitoring the controls for operating effectiveness.

IT General Controls

Our remediation actions related to improving our IT general controls include the following:

Management designed and maintained testing and approval controls for program development to ensure that the software is aligned with business and IT requirements, which operated for a newly implemented application in 2021.

Management designed and maintained testing and approval controls for program development to ensure that the software is aligned with business and IT requirements.

This includes final approval and testing of the software prior to migration to production.

The Company will design and implement IT general controls, including controls over the review and update of user access rights and privileges and change management.

As of March 2022, the Company has mapped a revised series of IT-related control activities for our Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, with the goal to execute ITGCs over our ERP system, and then design and implement similar controls for the remaining of our financially relevant applications.

While these actions and planned actions are subject to ongoing management evaluation and will require validation and testing of the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over a sustained period, we are committed to continuous improvement and will continue to diligently review our internal control over financial reporting.

The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until management completes the design and implementation of the measures described above, until the controls operate for a sufficient period of time, and until management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are effective.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Over the course of 2022 and continuing through 2024, the Company designed and implemented certain IT general controls, including controls over user access rights and privileges and change management.

Space Services and R&D Services Contracts

We are implementing measures designed to improve our internal control over financial reporting to remediate the material weakness over the accounting for our Space Services and R&D Services contracts with customers.

In our remediation plan, we are including enhanced training, updating our revenue recognition procedures, and engaging external experts to assist with complex revenue contract arrangements.

While the above actions and planned actions are subject to ongoing management evaluation and will require validation and testing of the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over a sustained period, we are committed to continuous improvement and will continue to diligently review our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud.

A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.

Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits

of controls must be considered relative to their costs.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.
