SpaceX Sets Aside 5% of IPO Shares for Selected Buyers | Honolulu Star-Advertiser

The direct share program lets selected participants buy stock without lock-up restrictions as the offering could raise $75 billion, according to the filing.

  • On Monday, an amended filing revealed SpaceX has reserved up to 5% of its IPO stock for "certain employees and persons" in a direct share program.
  • Morgan Stanley is administering the program, where participants are "selected based on the discretion of our executive officers" and shares are not subject to lock-up restrictions.
  • Companies including Airbnb, Uber, and Rivian have used similar programs, mirroring the approach Musk took during the 2010 Tesla IPO, which included up to 1.28 million shares.
  • The offering is expected to raise $75 billion, following SpaceX's valuation at $1.25 trillion earlier this year when Musk merged the company with his artificial intelligence startup.
  • SpaceX's roadshow could begin this week, with the company potentially debuting on the Nasdaq as soon as June 12, aiming to join Facebook and Alibaba as tech companies valued at $100 billion after first trading day.
