SpaceX Targets $75 Billion IPO at $135 Per Share

SpaceX is moving toward a landmark public offering, aiming to raise $75 billion through the sale of 555.6 million shares at $135 apiece. The valuation for the rocket and satellite pioneer reaches $1.75 trillion, setting the stage for one of the most significant market debuts in recent history.

SpaceX Targets $75 Billion IPO at $135 Per Share

The company is adopting an unconventional strategy by setting a specific target price before the official roadshow begins this Thursday. Standard market practice typically reserves precise pricing until the eve of a debut, following extensive investor presentations. This aggressive approach reflects the firm's reliance on future-facing ventures, including space-based data centers and ambitious Mars missions that currently exist only in projection.

Investment bankers are now tasked with generating demand for a record-breaking $75 billion order book. To bolster this effort, SpaceX is considering an unusually large retail tranche, potentially allocating up to 30% of the offering to individual investors. This move aims to capture the enthusiasm of Elon Musk’s loyal following and ensure a broad ownership base as the company tests public markets after years of muted activity among high-profile private firms.
