SpaceX Files for Mega IPO Targeting About $1.8 Trillion and $75 Billion Sale

Investor demand during a June roadshow will decide whether the company's new AI infrastructure pitch justifies its price.

Overview

  • SpaceX filed a confidential prospectus and has set a roadshow to begin in early June with pricing targeted around June 11–12 as it seeks roughly a $1.8 trillion valuation and up to $75 billion in proceeds.
  • The prospectus reframes SpaceX as an aerospace and AI infrastructure company after absorbing xAI, and it reports a commercial arrangement under which Anthropic would lease Colossus 1 capacity for large monthly payments that Elon Musk publicly described as a shorter, cancellable rental.
  • SpaceX disclosed 2025 results showing about $18.7 billion in revenue and a net loss near $4.9 billion, a deterioration analysts say raises questions about the company’s near-term profitability.
  • Filings show a dual-class share structure that would leave Elon Musk with roughly 80–85% of voting power, prompting several institutional investors, including some public pension funds and AkademikerPension, to say they will not participate over governance and valuation concerns.
  • The final price and allocation will hinge on immediate market response to the roadshow, the role of a large bank syndicate and retail channels, and recent index-rule changes that could force rapid index inclusion and broaden who must buy the stock soon after listing.
