Extended read
SpaceX has made its S-1 public, indicating a potential IPO that could be the largest in history, with a valuation range of $1.75 trillion to $2 trillion. Despite substantial sales of $18.67 billion in 2025, the company recorded a net loss of $4.9 billion for the year. The trend continued into Q1 2026, with a $4.27 billion loss on $4.69 billion in sales. Investor Gary Black has voiced strong reservations about the IPO's valuation, suggesting it trades at an unsustainable 300x EBITDA multiple. He indicated he would only consider an investment if the stock price were to drop by 50% after its public debut.
