SpaceX to pursue 2026 IPO raising above $25 billion, source says

SpaceX aims to raise up to $30 billion in a 2026 IPO to fund Starlink growth and space-based data centers, with Starlink generating 60-70% of revenue, sources say.

  • On December 9, 2025, SpaceX is pursuing an IPO next year, seeking to raise more than $25 billion and targeting a valuation over $1 trillion, according to reports.
  • SpaceX plans to use IPO proceeds to fund space-based data centers and purchase chips, supported by Starlink's revenue growth projected to reach $22–$24 billion in 2026, a source told Reuters.
  • The company has started discussions with bank advisers about a public listing around June or July, while recent media reports described employees selling shares in a secondary sale valuing SpaceX at $800 billion last week.
  • Market watchers note that if SpaceX's IPO raises above $25 billion, it could surpass Saudi Aramco's $29 billion record, with a valuation potentially exceeding $1.7 trillion, the first to do so.
  • Bloomberg's reporting followed an earlier account from The Information that SpaceX targeted a late-2026 IPO, but Musk dismissed the reports on Saturday as inaccurate, reversing earlier Starlink spin-off plans.
