SpaceX Sets Mid‑June Nasdaq IPO Under SPCX, Targets $1.8 Trillion Valuation

A $75 billion offering that concentrates control with Elon Musk poses new risks for investors.

Overview

  • SpaceX filed a public S‑1 and is preparing an early‑June investor roadshow with pricing targeted around June 11 and Nasdaq trading as soon as June 12 under the ticker SPCX.
  • The prospectus shows $18.7 billion in revenue for 2025 and a $4.94 billion net loss driven largely by AI data‑center buildout after the company folded in xAI.
  • The IPO structure gives Elon Musk dominant voting power through supervoting shares, leaving him effectively in control of the company after the listing.
  • Company officials signaled plans to allocate a large share to retail investors, underwriters include major banks and prediction markets price sizable first‑day upside while some pension funds have publicly refused to buy the stock.
  • Recent multi‑billion dollar U.S. Space Force launch contracts and Starlink’s profit contribution matter to near‑term investor sentiment but the offering’s small public float and fast index mechanics could amplify early trading volatility.
