SpaceX filed its long-awaited S-1 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Wednesday, formally kicking off what is set to be one of the most consequential—and closely watched—initial public offerings in corporate history.
The company, officially registered as Space Exploration Technologies Corp., is seeking to list its Class A common stock on both Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas under the ticker symbol SPCX, with Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and Bank of America leading a sprawling syndicate of more than 20 underwriters. Specific share counts and price ranges were left blank in the preliminary prospectus, as is standard for an initial S-1 filing.
