SpaceX weighs mid-June IPO targeting up to $50 billion raise at roughly $1.5 trillion valuation, report says

Elon Musk’s SpaceX is weighing a mid-June 2026 initial public offering, with a potential target of raising as much as $50 billion at a valuation of roughly $1.5 trillion, according to a report cited by Reuters. The information was attributed to the Financial Times, which said it was based on people familiar with the matter.

If the company moves forward at anything near that scale, the offering would immediately rank among the biggest equity listings ever, both in terms of the implied valuation and the amount of capital raised. Such a deal would also reshape expectations about the public market appetite for space and satellite infrastructure companies, and would test the depth of investor demand for businesses tied to launch, defense contracting, and global communications.

The report arrives against the backdrop of rapid re-pricing in private markets. SpaceX was most recently valued at around $800 billion in a secondary share sale last month, Reuters reported, suggesting the IPO scenario would imply a dramatic step-up in valuation expectations in a short period of time.

Investor interest in space-related businesses has risen sharply as governments expand procurement for imaging, intelligence, data and communications capabilities, and as private-sector customers look for reliable satellite connectivity and other space-enabled services. SpaceX, with its launch cadence and satellite footprint, sits at the center of those trends.

Neither the company nor Reuters could immediately confirm the details of the Financial Times report, and SpaceX did not respond to a Reuters request for comment. Even so, the mere prospect of a listing at this size signals how much attention investors are paying to the commercialization of space and to the idea that satellite networks and launch systems could become foundational infrastructure, comparable in importance to earlier waves of telecom and cloud expansion.
