Rocket Lab Corp (NASDAQ: RKLB) saw its shares drop 11% by 3:24 p.m. ET on Wednesday, coinciding with flat performance in the S&P 500 and a 0.5% gain in the Nasdaq Composite. The decline followed a recent surge in share prices after the company announced the completion of its Neutron launch pad, a project that has boosted investor confidence regarding its competitive positioning against SpaceX.
Despite its growth—more than 600% increase in share price over the past year—Rocket Lab’s substantial valuation raises concerns. The company operates at a loss, with nearly $200 million in EBITDA losses over the past year, and will need to sustain growth through debt or potential stock dilution amidst its ongoing ambitious development programs.
