SpaceX is preparing to launch what could become the largest initial public offering in history, with plans to raise approximately $75 billion in a transaction that would value the aerospace company at nearly $1.77 trillion, according to CNN.
Under the proposed offering, the company plans to sell 555.6 million shares at $135 per share, reflecting strong investor demand amid a resurgence in the U.S. IPO market. If completed as outlined, the offering would surpass the $29.4 billion initial public offering completed by Saudi Aramco in 2019, currently the largest IPO on record.
The transaction would further solidify SpaceX’s position among the world’s most valuable private companies. Founded by Elon Musk, the company has become a dominant player in commercial space transportation, satellite communications, and launch services through programs including its reusable rocket systems and the Starlink satellite network.
According to the proposed structure, Musk would retain approximately 82.4% of the company’s voting power following the offering, preserving effective control over strategic decisions and corporate governance.
The planned IPO comes as investor interest in high-growth technology and infrastructure companies continues to strengthen, particularly in sectors tied to artificial intelligence, communications, aerospace, and advanced manufacturing.
If the valuation is achieved, SpaceX would rank among the most valuable publicly traded companies globally, underscoring the growing economic significance of the commercial space industry and the increasing role of private capital in space exploration and communications infrastructure.
