"The current geopolitical landscape underscores the critical need for rapid, comprehensive, and broad area intelligence expertise. As European nations enhance their defense capabilities, they're seeking reliable, trusted partners who can deliver these specialties quickly and consistently – and Planet is uniquely equipped to meet this rapidly growing, global market demand," said Will Marshall, Co-founder and CEO of Planet. "Our growth with NATO showcases Planet's unparalleled ability to provide the necessary scale and frequency of data collection that's critical for daily, global intelligence. For over a decade Planet has centered global daily monitoring as our flagship product, and we now have the opportunity to solidify our market-leading role in empowering the Alliance to have the comprehensive situational awareness in its region that is critical during these pivotal times."
This new AI-powered offering, combining Planet's technology with partner capabilities, is a transformative leap in information-gathering – moving from reactive, target-centric surveillance to proactive, broad-area anomaly detection. This shift augments NATO's Indications & Warning (I&W) capabilities, increases efficiency, and empowers strategic foresight across NATO's areas of interest.

'It grants us persistent space-based surveillance, bolstering our enhanced early Indicators and Warnings and strengthening our Maritime Domain Awareness. This swift integration of Planet's satellite data and insights, especially through the Smart Indications and Warning, Broad Area Detection (SINBAD) project, is vital for strengthening our global awareness and rapidly addressing complex security challenges at speed. This initiative reinforces NATO's commitment to maintaining our technological edge, ensuring strategic advantage and cost-effectiveness, and directly enhancing deterrence, strengthening collective defence, and empowering our warfighters with real-time situational awareness.'

Earnings To Watch: FB Financial (FBK) Reports Q2 Results Tomorrow
Regional banking company FB Financial (NYSE:FBK) will be reporting earnings this Monday after market close. Here's what investors should know.

This quarter, analysts are expecting FB Financial's revenue to grow 6.1% year on year to $136 million, improving from the 2.3% increase it recorded in the same quarter last year.

Analysts covering the company have generally reconfirmed their estimates over the last 30 days, suggesting they anticipate the business to stay the course heading into earnings. With FB Financial being the first among its peers to report earnings this season, we don't have anywhere else to look to get a hint at how this quarter will unravel for banks stocks.

FB Financial is up 11.6% during the same time and is heading into earnings with an average analyst price target of $57.20 (compared to the current share price of $48.22).

Why FuboTV Stock Skyrocketed 206% in the First Half of the Year
Fubo soared on its merger announcement with Hulu + Live TV The move will triple Fubo's subscriber base, leading the stock to roughly triple. The business still faces challenges, including its lack of profitability. 10 stocks we like better than fuboTV › Shares of FuboTV (NYSE: FUBO) soared in the first half of the year, as the company agreed to a merger with Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS). According to data from S&P Global Market Intelligence, the stock finished the first half of 2025 up 206%. The stock's gains came entirely from news of the merger, as the Disney deal, which will merge Fubo with Hulu + Live TV, values the sports streaming stock significantly higher than what it was trading for before the news. However, there was also other news out of Fubo, and the stock did pull back modestly following the merger announcement in January. As you can see from the chart, the stock soared on the announcement at the beginning of the year, and then drifted lower before rebounding with the broad market in May and June. The big news out on Fubo this year was, of course, the merger with Hulu + Live TV. According to the terms of the deal, Disney will own 70% of the combined company, which will continue trading under the Fubo ticker. The deal also resolved outstanding litigation between the two companies at the time, which was related to the Venu Sports joint venture that was later disbanded. The stock tripled on the news, because the move will triple Fubo's viewing audience, and Fubo will also receive a $220 million payment as a result of the agreement. While the move does make Fubo a significantly larger company, it might not be the simple value add that investors hope it will be. Fubo continued to be unprofitable into 2024, reporting an adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) loss narrowed from $201 million to $86.1 million, while revenue grew 8% to $431.8 million. In the first quarter, meanwhile, revenue rose 3.5% to $407.9 million, and sees revenue declining in the second quarter. Additionally, the Department of Justice announced an investigation into the deal on antitrust grounds in April. Investors are still betting that the deal will go through, as the stock recovered strongly through May and June. The merger does appear to be the best outcome for Fubo, and Disney's reach, expertise, and experience with ESPN could help drive its success in the meantime. However, even if the deal stays on track, investors should expect the stock to be volatile, as the business is still losing money.
