Sebuah SpaceX IPO yang sangat dinantikan dapat menjadikan Elon Musk seorang triliuner dan memberi penghargaan kepada pemegang saham pribadi perusahaan luar angkasa mana pun, termasuk CEO Gerber Kawasaki Ross Gerber. Dalam sebuah wawancara dengan Benzinga, Gerber mengatakan dia kemungkinan akan menjual saham SpaceX-nya berdasarkan valuasi ekstrem yang diberikan kepada perusahaan.

SpaceX IPO

Meskipun beberapa orang mungkin memandang Gerber sebagai Tesla Inc kritikus dan penjahat akhir-akhir ini, dia meyakinkan Benzinga bahwa dia hanya seorang kritikus Musk.

Ketika ditanya apakah Musk mungkin menepati janjinya untuk memberikan akses awal kepada pemegang saham Tesla ke saham SpaceX menjelang IPO, Gerber berpikir janji itu mungkin menjadi kenyataan.

"Saya pikir dia akan," Gerber memberi tahu Benzinga. "Saya pikir dia akan memberikan akses kepada siapa pun ke saham SpaceX ini pada $2 triliun."

Gerber mengatakan valuasi itu mungkin "luar biasa" berdasarkan perusahaan yang menghasilkan sekitar $20 miliar pendapatan tahunan.

"Bagaimana bisa sesuatu itu berharga begitu banyak uang?"

Manajer kekayaan itu memberi tahu Benzinga bahwa dia memiliki saham SpaceX berkat berinvestasi di "sh**ty Twitter dengan Elon." Investasi itu telah berlipat ganda atau tiga kali lipat, yang menurut Gerber Twitter, sekarang dikenal sebagai X, kemungkinan besar bernilai jauh lebih rendah.

Gerber mempertanyakan matematika dari valuasi baru untuk kombinasi X, xAI, dan SpaceX, yang semuanya merupakan satu perusahaan setelah beberapa merger.

"Keuangan itu seperti gravitasi. Pada akhirnya, kekuatan ekonomi terjadi dan sehingga investor yang Anda tahu berinvestasi di SpaceX pada $2 triliun agar mereka mendapatkan pengembalian yang layak akan membutuhkan nilainya menjadi $4 triliun."

Apa yang Terjadi Setelah SpaceX IPO

Dengan valuasi $2 triliun dan valuasi perusahaan swasta yang meningkat, Gerber tidak dapat menahan diri untuk tidak mempertanyakan apakah ada gelembung yang siap meledak, mengatakan itu bisa menjadi "salah satu gelembung terbesar" yang pernah dilihatnya dalam waktu yang lama.

"Untung mereka tidak berada di pasar publik karena saya berada di pasar publik dan saya tidak ingin gelembung di sini," Gerber memberi tahu Benzinga.

Gerber mengatakan begitu perusahaan menjadi publik, mereka harus menunjukkan angka. Dia menggunakan Netflix, raksasa streaming yang baru-baru ini melaporkan pendapatan triwulanan, sebagai contoh. Perusahaan mengalahkan perkiraan analis untuk pendapatan dan laba per saham, tetapi sahamnya turun karena panduannya sedikit ringan.

"Sangat sulit untuk menjadi perusahaan publik. Jadi SpaceX akan melakukan segala yang mungkin untuk menempatkan apa yang kita sebut 'sizzle' pada saham sehingga setiap orang di Amerika menginginkan sepotong."

"The $2 trillion valuation relies on speculative tech-monopoly pricing that cannot survive the margin-focused scrutiny of the public equity markets."

Ross Gerber’s skepticism highlights a critical disconnect between private market hype and public market accountability. At a $2 trillion valuation on roughly $20 billion in revenue, SpaceX trades at a 100x price-to-sales multiple—a valuation that assumes near-monopolistic dominance in global telecommunications via Starlink and total capture of the launch market. While the tech is revolutionary, the capital expenditure required to maintain this lead is astronomical. Gerber is right to fear the 'sizzle' of an IPO; once subjected to quarterly scrutiny, the margin compression from Starlink’s infrastructure costs will likely force a valuation reset that private investors, shielded by liquidity constraints, currently ignore.

Pendapat Kontra

SpaceX is not a traditional aerospace firm but a platform play; if Starlink achieves even 5% of global broadband market share, the recurring revenue stream justifies premium multiples far beyond standard industrial benchmarks.

"Gerber's sell plan is biased profit-taking that overlooks SpaceX’s unmatched space infrastructure moat and Musk’s history of valuation expansion."

Ross Gerber's vow to sell SpaceX shares at a $2T valuation on $20B revenue (100x sales multiple) flags private market froth, but as a Musk/Tesla critic nursing Twitter losses, his bias is glaring—the article omits SpaceX’s launch dominance (60%+ global share) and Starlink’s telecom disruption potential. Mergers with X/xAI create synergies ignored here, while Musk’s Tesla shareholder access promise could boost TSLA sentiment. Public IPOs face Netflix-like scrutiny, yet SpaceX's moat (reusability, govt contracts) supports premium if growth accelerates. This is profit-taking, not a sell signal—watch secondaries for real tops.

Pendapat Kontra

SpaceX must deliver Starship reliability and Starlink profitability amid Kuiper competition and sat regulatory risks, or $2T implodes into a WeWork-style debacle dragging private hype into public markets.

"The $2T valuation is defensible only if SpaceX sustains 30%+ annual revenue growth for a decade—achievable but not guaranteed once public scrutiny replaces private patience."

Gerber’s skepticism on SpaceX valuation ($2T on ~$20B revenue = 100x sales) is mathematically sound, but the article conflates three separate issues: (1) whether $2T is justified today, (2) whether an IPO happens at that price, and (3) whether it’s a bubble. SpaceX has genuine moats—launch cadence, Starlink recurring revenue, government contracts—that Netflix lacks. The real risk isn't valuation alone; it's that public markets will demand 40%+ annual growth to justify it, forcing SpaceX to chase unprofitable contracts or delay Mars ambitions. Gerber’s exit plan signals smart insider behavior, but doesn't prove the valuation fails—only that risk/reward no longer favors him.

Pendapat Kontra

SpaceX’s Starlink revenue is growing exponentially and government defense spending is rising; a $2T valuation assumes only modest growth from a $20B base that may already be outdated. Gerber may be selling too early if Starlink reaches $50B+ revenue within 5 years.

"The implied $2T IPO valuation for SpaceX, given ~$20B revenue, implies ~100x revenue and hinges on highly uncertain profitability and policy risk—making a sharp re-rating likely if disclosure shows a less pristine path to cash flow."

SpaceX at a $2T implied valuation with ~$20B in revenue (~100x revenue) is an extreme multiple by any norm, especially given capex and government-contract risk. The Benzinga quote glosses over profitability, cash flow, and contract visibility. An IPO would require transparent financials and would pin a price on SpaceX, X, xAI, and Musk’s stake, exposing investors to execution and policy risk. If macro conditions soften or NASA budgets stumble, a $2T valuation could compress sharply. The missing context includes profitability, margin trajectory, contract backlog, and regulatory risk; without that, the hype risks becoming a bubble claim rather than a credible price path.

Pendapat Kontra

The counterargument is that if SpaceX proves durable, diversified revenue streams (launch services, Starlink monetization, government contracts) with improving margins, a 2T valuation might be justifiable in a frothy IPO market; the article’s hype could reflect upside optics rather than baseline risk.

"The $2T valuation includes a 'Musk premium' for private autonomy that will vanish upon the transparency requirements of an IPO."

Claude, you’re missing the 'key-man' risk that defines the $2T valuation. SpaceX isn't just a launch company; it is an extension of Musk’s personal capital allocation strategy. If SpaceX goes public, it loses the ability to pivot resources into high-risk, non-core ventures like xAI or Mars colonization without shareholder litigation. The valuation isn't just about revenue multiples; it's a premium paid for Musk’s ability to operate with zero public market friction. That premium evaporates at IPO.

"Musk’s key-man premium endures public scrutiny, but Starship execution risks are the true IPO stressor."

Gemini, TSLA trades at ~10x P/S despite Musk’s public pivots to xAI/Twitter, proving key-man risk doesn’t ‘evaporate’ post-IPO—investors pay for vision, not secrecy. SpaceX’s real unmentioned vulnerability: Starship delays could halve launch revenue (now 60%+ market share), forcing Starlink to subsidize amid Kuiper ramp-up, compressing margins faster than capex alone.

"SpaceX’s moat is narrower and more binary than Tesla’s; public markets will demand profitable core business, not R&D optionality."

Grok’s TSLA comparison is instructive but incomplete. Tesla’s 10x P/S survives Musk’s pivots because auto manufacturing has transparent, recurring revenue and regulatory moats. SpaceX’s launch dominance (60%+ share) is far more fragile—one Starship failure or Blue Origin breakthrough collapses it overnight. Starlink’s profitability remains unproven at scale. The key-man risk Gemini flagged isn't about *secrecy*; it’s about capital reallocation flexibility. Public SpaceX can’t fund Mars R&D losses from launch profits without shareholder revolt. That’s a real structural difference TSLA doesn’t face.

"An IPO may preserve control for Musk but shifts the risk to governance and capital allocation, potentially delaying SpaceX’s key programs and undermining upside."

Gemini, your ‘key-man risk evaporates at IPO’ assumes a clean handoff, but many founder-led IPOs keep control through dual-class voting or founder board seats. The risk simply migrates from Musk’s private discretion to governance and capital allocation discipline (or lack thereof). If SpaceX borrows public-market scrutiny to fund bold bets, mispricing and activist pressure could delay Starship cadence or Starlink profitability—so the risk isn't gone, it’s reframed.
