SpaceX plans to set the terms for its initial public offering as early as Wednesday afternoon [1].
The move marks a pivotal shift for the private aerospace company as it seeks to raise massive amounts of capital to fund continued growth. This listing is expected to be the largest in history, potentially altering the landscape of the commercial space industry.
According to reports, the company intends to sell approximately 555.6 million shares [2]. The proposed price for these shares is $135 per share [2]. If the offering proceeds as planned, SpaceX expects to raise $75 billion in total proceeds [2].
These figures contribute to a target valuation of at least $1.8 trillion [3]. The setting of these terms, including the final share count and pricing, is scheduled for this Wednesday, June 3, 2026 [1].
SpaceX has long operated as a private entity, allowing it to develop the Falcon and Starship programs away from the quarterly scrutiny of public markets. The transition to a public company will provide the liquidity necessary for its ambitious expansion goals while opening ownership to a broader range of investors.
Industry analysts have watched the company's valuation climb through several private funding rounds. The jump to a trillion-dollar valuation reflects the market's confidence in the company's dominance of satellite launches and its Starlink internet constellation.
“SpaceX is expected to be the biggest listing ever.”
A successful IPO at a $1.8 trillion valuation would place SpaceX among the most valuable companies in the world, signaling a market belief that space infrastructure is now a scalable, high-growth commercial sector. The massive capital influx of $75 billion would likely accelerate the development of interplanetary transport and the global expansion of Starlink, while simultaneously introducing the volatility of public equity to Elon Musk's aerospace ambitions.
