SpaceX's upcoming IPO is expected to unlock institutional-scale capital for the commercial space sector, benefiting companies like Rocket Lab and AST SpaceMobile. These companies are already seeing growth and investment ahead of the IPO, with Rocket Lab's revenue increasing by nearly 38% year over year.
SpaceX filed a confidential draft registration with the SEC on April 1, targeting a $1.75 trillion valuation. A successful public listing could legitimize commercial space as an investable asset class. Rocket Lab, a domestic launch competitor, saw revenue hit $601.8 million in 2025. AST SpaceMobile is building a space-based cellular broadband network, with revenue exploding from $4.4 million in 2024 to $70.9 million in 2025. Both companies are expected to benefit from the capital that follows SpaceX's IPO. The event could be a catalyst for the entire commercial space sector, with MarketBeat analyst Thomas Hughes seeing it as more than a single stock story.
