Space sector stocks are seeing movement ahead of the SpaceX IPO

Space sector stocks are seeing movement ahead of the SpaceX IPO

SpaceX is planning what could be the largest IPO in history this June at a $1.75 trillion valuation. This is creating some movement in other publicly traded space companies as the sector gets more attention. A few smaller space stocks reported recent updates. Starfighters Space (FJET) signed an agreement to provide parabolic test flights for NASA to help rebuild US microgravity capabilities. They are adding a modified Falcon 50 jet to their existing fleet. Other companies in the sector also reported Q1 earnings. M-tron (MPTI) saw revenue grow 15% to $14.7 million. Sidus Space (SIDU) increased revenue by 51% and paid off their term debt. Telesat (TSAT) brought in CAD$87 million while moving forward with their Lightspeed satellite program. Momentus (MNTS) grew their service revenue to $3.2 million, up from $300k last year. The space sector is seeing more government contracts and general activity right now. It might be worth watching how these smaller caps react when SpaceX actually lists.

The SpaceX IPO hype is definitely bringing more attention and speculative money into smaller space stocks across the sector.
