SpaceX Sets IPO Share Price
SpaceX has announced its IPO share price at $135. The company is seeking to raise $75 billion, which would give it a valuation of $1.75 trillion and rank it among the 10 largest U.S.-listed companies by market capitalisation.
The company disclosed the share price Wednesday, approximately a week before filing to hold its investor meetings. The SpaceX roadshow in June 2026 begins Thursday, with final pricing anticipated on June 11. Shares are expected to start trading on Nasdaq under the ticker SPCX on June 12.
It is uncommon for firms to set a final IPO price before their roadshows. The price guidance is a departure from established SpaceX Wall Street convention, and reflects an unusual level of Elon Musk’s confidence in investor demand, and willingness to upstage conventional public offerings.
There are other differences, too, with Elon Musk’s public offering of SpaceX. At the top end of estimates for the IPO, SpaceX is considering allocating as much as 30% of a new share issue to retail investors, an unprecedented level for a major listing. The firm is also encouraging swift additions to major stock indexes while maintaining governance features that ensure hefty founder control.
Despite the valuation concerns, investor demand for the IPO has been strong. While Wall Street firms compete for access to the deal, the world’s biggest banks are being urged to concentrate on wealthy private individuals rather than just large institutions. This offering differs so significantly, in vision and structure, from anything investors have encountered before that some have dubbed it the most expensive game of Monopoly we’ve ever seen.
But, alternatively, the valuation may be rather high-spirited. SpaceX posted revenue of $18.67 billion in 2025, up 33% YoY, yet sustained a massive net loss of $4.94 billion. However, analysts point out that there are very few comparable public companies to SpaceX in the space launch, satellite internet, telecommunications, and defence sectors; some investors reportedly preferred a valuation closer to $1.5 trillion.
