Planet Ventures Gains Access to Relativity Space's Next Phase Through Special Purpose Vehicle Investment

Planet Ventures Inc. (CSE: PXI) (OTC: PNXPF) (FSE: P6U) announced on April 8, 2026, a USD $125,000 equity investment in MCXGP Relativity Fund I, LLC, a special purpose vehicle that participated in the latest financing round of Relativity Space Inc. This investment marks a strategic move for Planet Ventures, allowing the company to gain exposure to Relativity Space's next phase of development, including the Terran R fully reusable launch vehicle and orbital data centers optimized for artificial intelligence workloads.

Relativity Space, led by former Google CEO Eric Schmidt since 2025, is advancing its Terran R launch vehicle and exploring orbital data centers for AI workloads. The investment adds to Planet Ventures' growing space sector portfolio, which previously included exposure to orbital energy infrastructure and cislunar development opportunities. The private space sector has evolved, enabling smaller public companies to participate in financing rounds historically limited to venture capital firms and strategic corporate investors through special purpose vehicles and dedicated fund structures.

This shift is redefining how smaller public companies can gain exposure to closely held private aerospace opportunities. Planet Ventures' investment in MCXGP Relativity Fund I, LLC exemplifies this trend. For more details, visit the company's newsroom at https://ibn.fm/PNXPF.

The investment aligns with Planet Ventures' strategy of targeting high-growth private space companies. The company's portfolio includes investments in Mantis Space and GRU Space, focusing on orbital energy and lunar habitation technologies. The global space economy is projected to grow, and Planet Ventures aims to capitalize on this trend through strategic investments.

However, investing in early-stage space companies carries significant risks. Portfolio companies have limited operating histories and are pre-revenue. Technologies such as orbital energy and lunar habitation are unproven at commercial scale. Regulatory approvals from domestic and international bodies are required, and commercial demand for in-space power systems and lunar services has not been established at scale. Investments are illiquid, and additional funding may be needed on dilutive terms. Macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions could disrupt operations.

Planet Ventures' forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and involve known and unknown risks. The company undertakes no obligation to update these statements. Investors should read the company's SEDAR+ and SEC filings, press releases, and risk disclosures before investing.
