SpaceX Prices Record $75 Billion Nasdaq IPO, Expands Japan Retail Tranche to $2.5 Billion

SpaceX has priced its planned $75 billion U.S. IPO at $135 per share, implying a valuation of about $1.75 trillion to $1.77 trillion and positioning the deal as the largest IPO globally. The company plans to list on Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas around June 12, with the offering backed by a 23-bank underwriting syndicate led by Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. SpaceX also increased the Japanese retail tranche to as much as $2.5 billion, with Mizuho Securities, Rakuten Securities and SBI Securities acting as local selling agents. Proceeds are expected to support AI compute infrastructure, launch vehicle enhancements and satellite constellation expansion, while market commentators noted the unprecedented size of the IPO could affect investor flows, single-stock volatility and broader index dynamics.

Anthropic Confidentially Files for U.S. IPO at Reported $965 Billion Valuation

Anthropic, the AI company behind Claude, has confidentially filed a Form S-1 with the SEC for a proposed U.S. IPO, potentially moving ahead of OpenAI in the race to public markets. The company was reported to have reached a valuation of about $965 billion after a $65 billion Series H, while its annual revenue run rate reportedly rose sharply to $47 billion. Anthropic’s IPO timing remains subject to SEC review and market conditions, but the filing is seen as a major test of investor demand for frontier AI companies and could have significant implications for benchmark indexes, capital flows and public-market AI valuations. IPOX® VP Kat Liu noted that Anthropic appears to be moving while demand for AI and growth listings remains strong, with the broader listing cycle also featuring SpaceX and OpenAI.

OpenAI Advances IPO Preparations While Altman Says Timing Is Not the Focus

OpenAI has reportedly discussed adding Citigroup and JPMorgan to its IPO banking lineup, signaling continued preparation for a potential future U.S. listing. The report did not disclose a proposed offer size, valuation or timetable, and no final bank appointments were confirmed. Separately, CEO Sam Altman said OpenAI is not focused on IPO timing and would go public when it makes sense for the company, following Anthropic’s confidential IPO filing. The updates place OpenAI among the major AI companies being watched closely by public-market investors during a potentially historic IPO cycle. (Source)
