To put this in perspective, traditional telecommunications giants AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile collectively average 38% EBITDA margins, with T-Mobile posting the highest at 39%.Starlink represented approximately 61% of SpaceX’s overall revenue stream in 2025. The aerospace company disclosed total annual revenue of approximately $18.5 billion.The subscriber count for Starlink exceeded 9 million users across more than 155 nations by year-end 2025. Musk announced via X in February 2026 that the service had surpassed 10 million subscribers operating in 160 countries and territories.An Unprecedented Valuation That Defies ConventionBased on a $1.75 trillion market capitalization and $18.5 billion in revenue, SpaceX would trade at approximately 95 times sales. This exceeds Palantir‘s multiple of roughly 87.5x revenue. Even high-growth space sector companies like AST SpaceMobile trade at comparatively lower multiples when adjusted for growth trajectories.Conventional valuation methodologies face limitations when applied to SpaceX. The company’s expansion velocity makes historical financial data less predictive of future performance.SpaceX’s current private market valuation of $1.3 trillion already represents approximately double the combined market capitalization of AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, American Tower, and Crown Castle.An $1.8 trillion valuation would exceed the aggregate value of all aerospace and defense corporations in the S&P 500 — including industry stalwarts GE Aerospace, Lockheed Martin, and RTX, which collectively fall below $1.5 trillion in market value.Several established industry participants have opted for collaboration over competition. Comcast now utilizes Starlink technology to supplement coverage gaps in its fiber optic and cable infrastructure. T-Mobile routes select device traffic through SpaceX’s satellite network.Orbital AI Computing Facilities — The Next FrontierSpaceX’s ambitions extend beyond satellite internet connectivity. The company is pursuing development of artificial intelligence data processing centers in space, capitalizing on its xAI acquisition. This initiative creates direct competition with cloud computing leaders — Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet, and Meta — which collectively command approximately $11.7 trillion in market value and average 57% EBITDA margins currently.Microsoft achieves the highest margin in this cohort at 61% — marginally below Starlink’s 63% performance.Musk has publicly stated his projection that space-based AI computing costs could undercut terrestrial alternatives within a two-to-three-year timeframe. The xAI division currently operates at a loss, with comprehensive financial statements yet to be disclosed.Beyond artificial intelligence applications, SpaceX’s Starship vehicle — engineered to transport up to 100 passengers — forms the foundation of extended growth strategies encompassing lunar operations, commercial cargo services, and eventual Mars colonization efforts.Should Starlink expand to 30-50 million subscribers maintaining an average monthly fee of $100, the division alone could produce $60 billion in yearly revenue. Current pricing spans from $50 to $120 monthly for residential packages, while maritime commercial subscriptions can reach $2,150.SpaceX has not issued official statements regarding the leaked financial information.The post SpaceX Eyes $2 Trillion IPO Valuation Fueled by Starlink’s Explosive Growth appeared first on Blockonomi.
