SpaceX Files Confidential IPO With SEC

SpaceX filed a confidential S-1 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 1, 2026, Bloomberg reports, signaling the start of a potential IPO. Reports cite a targeted $1.75 trillion valuation and roughly $75 billion to raise, but key metrics like Starlink subscriber revenue, Starship program cash burn, and xAI's corporate role remain undisclosed. Investors must wait for the public S-1 before the roadshow.
Key Points
