SpaceX Prepares Record IPO Targeting Up To $75 Billion In New Funding

Analysts expect the cash to fund rockets, satellites, AI hardware.

Overview

  • SpaceX has filed confidentially with the SEC and is expected to post a public prospectus in mid-May with a possible June investor roadshow.
  • Recent reports point to a valuation near $1.75 trillion to almost $2 trillion and a $50 billion to $75 billion primary raise that would rank as the largest IPO to date.
  • The offering is described as new shares that route proceeds to SpaceX, and a dual-class structure reported by Yahoo Finance would keep Elon Musk in control with about 79% of voting power.
  • Analysis outlines likely uses for the proceeds that include scaling the Starship program, pursuing a moon base, and exploring space-based AI data centers, presented as plans rather than firm commitments.
  • Coverage highlights likely winners such as Nvidia, which controls an estimated 85% share of AI chips, with Musk saying SpaceX will keep buying its hardware at scale, and links spending to xAI and Tesla’s AI goals.
