What Happened
On April 23, 2026, Spire Global Canada Subsidiary Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Spire Global, Inc., received written notice that the contract with His Majesty the King in right of Canada (represented by Public Works and Government Services Canada, “PWGS”) to design and develop the WildFireSat constellation was terminated for convenience, effective immediately. The company disclosed the termination in an 8-K filed April 24, 2026.
