SpaceX Preps 2026 IPO Aiming to Raise Over $30 Billion at $1.5 Trillion Valuation

Proceeds would bankroll orbital data centers to accelerate projects powered by Starlink’s rapid revenue growth.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets cite insider reports of a mid‑to‑late 2026 listing, with Musk now acknowledging preparations even as no formal filing has been made and timing could slip into 2027.
  • The offering is expected to raise more than $30 billion, with funds earmarked for space-based data centers and other long-horizon initiatives tied to AI and robotics.
  • Bloomberg-reported projections put revenue near $15 billion in 2025 and roughly $22–24 billion in 2026, led by the Starlink satellite internet business.
  • SpaceX has reportedly moved away from a Starlink-only spin-off in favor of taking the entire company public.
  • At the targeted scale, the IPO would rank among the largest on record and could eclipse Saudi Aramco’s proceeds, while early investors such as Alphabet stand to book massive paper gains.
