SpaceX Sets Record with Upcoming IPO
SpaceX (NASDAQ: SPCX) is poised to complete the largest initial public offering (IPO) in history, seeking to raise $75 billion. This amount surpasses the $22 billion raised by Alibaba in 2014 and would value the company at nearly $1.8 trillion. The IPO is set to price shares at $135 each.
In 2025, SpaceX’s revenue grew by 33% to $18.7 billion, despite a net loss of $4.9 billion, primarily due to significant investments in its AI division, xAI, which incurred a loss of $6.4 billion. Investor demand remains robust, with orders reported at four times the expected share availability.
Analysts indicate that SpaceX’s IPO valuation, trading at nearly 100 times sales, is notably high. Historically, most large IPOs have underperformed post-debut, with only 9 of 36 companies with market caps over $15 billion outperforming the S&P 500 since their IPOs, raising questions about future performance.
