What is SpaceX?

SpaceX, formally known as Space Exploration Technologies Corp., is an American aerospace manufacturer and space transportation company founded in 2002 by Elon Musk. Headquartered in Hawthorne, California, the company designs, manufactures, and launches rockets and spacecraft.

SpaceX is best known for the Falcon 9 rocket, the Falcon Heavy, and the Starship launch system. It also operates Starlink, a satellite internet constellation that has become one of its largest revenue drivers. By the end of 2025, Starlink had surpassed 9 million active subscribers and generated over $10 billion in annual revenue. (US Reporter)

In February 2026, SpaceX merged with Elon Musk’s AI startup xAI, expanding the company’s scope beyond aerospace.

Is SpaceX Publicly Traded?

SpaceX is not yet publicly traded. As of this writing, shares are not available on any public stock exchange and there is no SpaceX ticker symbol. That is expected to change later in 2026.

SpaceX IPO: What Has Been Announced

SpaceX outlined details of its IPO at a meeting with its team of bankers, telling them it plans to earmark a large portion of shares for retail investors and will host 1,500 of them at an event in June following the IPO roadshow launch. CNBC

The offering is expected to be the biggest initial public offering ever, with SpaceX seeking to raise $75 billion and targeting a valuation of as much as $1.75 trillion. CNBC

Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, Citigroup, JP Morgan, and Goldman Sachs are leading the deal as active bookrunners, with 16 other banks in smaller roles spanning institutional, retail, and international channels. CNBC

SpaceX IPO Date and Timeline

The roadshow is planned for the week of June 8, when SpaceX executives and bankers will pitch the IPO to investors. Around 125 financial analysts from the 21 banks on the deal are scheduled to meet with the company the day before. 

The company plans to make its IPO prospectus public in late May.

This page will be updated as the prospectus and official dates are confirmed.

SpaceX IPO Price

No official IPO price has been set. A price range will be disclosed in the public S-1 prospectus once filed.

The $1.75 trillion target represents a significant step up from the $1.25 trillion combined valuation set when SpaceX merged with xAI in February. SpaceX’s most recent tender offer, in December 2025, valued the company at $800 billion before that merger. CNBC

Public.com will update this article when official pricing information is available.

Retail Investor Access

SpaceX is reportedly considering allocating up to 30% of shares to retail investors, significantly higher than the typical 5% to 10% seen in most IPOs. Reuters

SpaceX CFO Bret Johnsen told bankers that retail participation is by design, noting that individual investors have been supportive of the company and of Elon Musk for a long time. CNBC
