SpaceX IPO Liftoff: SPCX Shares Priced at $135

SpaceX IPO Liftoff: SPCX Shares Priced at $135 as Elon Musk Eyes Trillionaire Status

The wait is nearly over. SpaceX, the private rocket and satellite powerhouse founded by Elon Musk, has priced its initial public offering and is set to begin trading on the Nasdaq under the ticker SPCX on June 12, 2026. This is not just another tech listing. It is shaping up to be one of the largest IPOs in market history.

IPO by the Numbers

SpaceX priced its Class A common stock at a fixed $135 per share. The company is offering approximately 555.6 million shares and expects to raise around $75 billion. That would value SpaceX at roughly $1.77 trillion to $1.8 trillion post-IPO.

The offering has drawn massive demand. Reports indicate it is significantly oversubscribed, with strong interest from both institutional investors and retail participants. Some brokers have expanded access and lowered minimums to accommodate retail orders. Shares are expected to begin trading on June 12 following pricing the prior day.

This move follows the company’s confidential SEC filing in April and the public S-1 filing in May. SpaceX has applied to list on Nasdaq under the ticker SPCX.

What the Valuation Signals

Pre-IPO secondary market prices for SpaceX shares fluctuated in recent months, with valuations reported between roughly $800 billion and over $1.5 trillion depending on the platform and timing. The $135 IPO price lands in a zone that reflects both the company’s growth trajectory and the premium investors are willing to pay for exposure to its Starlink constellation and launch business.

Analysts remain divided on fair value. Some see room for upside if Starlink continues scaling and new contracts materialize. Others, including Morningstar, have published more conservative estimates around $780 billion. The market will set the real price once trading begins.

Elon Musk’s Path Toward Trillionaire Status

Elon Musk’s net worth currently sits in the $800 billion to $980 billion range according to Forbes real-time tracking as of mid-June 2026. His holdings in Tesla form a large part of that figure, but SpaceX represents another major concentration of wealth.

With a successful IPO and sustained trading levels, Musk’s stake in SpaceX is widely expected to push his net worth past the $1 trillion mark. Multiple financial outlets have described him as positioned to become the world’s first verified trillionaire once the shares begin trading publicly. The exact outcome will depend on how SPCX performs in the open market.

Starlink and the Real Business Engine

Behind the valuation headlines sits a company generating real revenue. SpaceX reported approximately $18.7 billion in revenue in its most recent full year, driven primarily by Starlink’s growing user base (now exceeding 10 million subscribers) and U.S. government contracts for launches and satellite services.

The company has posted operating losses in the same period, a common profile for high-growth aerospace and communications businesses investing heavily in infrastructure. Starlink’s global expansion and the continued cadence of Falcon and Starship launches remain the core operational story investors will watch after the IPO.

SpaceX’s public debut gives everyday investors a direct way to participate in the commercial space economy that was previously accessible only through private funds or secondary platforms.
