SpaceX, led by Elon Musk, plans to set its initial public offering (IPO) price at $135 per share in an effort to raise a groundbreaking $75 billion, which would establish a total valuation of $1.75 trillion for the company. This unusual move comes ahead of its investor roadshow, as SpaceX aims to break from the typical IPO practices by fixing the pricing before gauging investor interest through bookbuilding. The IPO is anticipated to pave the way for other high-profile private companies seeking to enter public markets, as the space industry sees pronounced growth in commercial launch and satellite capabilities. With significant revenue contributions from its Starlink satellite communications business, SpaceX’s plans for future advancements in AI and space technology are pivotal to its appeal among potential investors. The company is expected to debut on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “SPCX” on June 12.
