SpaceX posts revenue surge in 1st quarterly report as public firm

SpaceX reported a significant increase in revenue for the first quarter after its recent IPO, driven primarily by its Starlink satellite internet service and growing AI division. Revenue reached $7.8 billion for the April-June period, up from $4.1 billion in the same period last year, surpassing Wall Street expectations. Starlink contributed over half of the revenue, with a 66% increase, while the AI business saw a 250% rise in revenue. However, the company’s capital expenditures soared to $18 billion, mostly due to heavy investments in AI infrastructure. Despite strong performance metrics, SpaceX’s stock price dropped 7.5% after hours following the release of the earnings report.
