SpaceX (SPCX) investor relations material

Vertical integration and infrastructure strategy

• Vertical integration is foundational, enabling control over quality, speed, and customer experience across rockets, communications, and AI infrastructure.

• The approach extends from manufacturing hardware to building software and managing customer relationships, supporting rapid innovation and scalability.

• Infrastructure investments include building terrestrial and orbital compute, with in-house construction and power management.

Starship and launch business evolution

• Starship is central to all business segments, with recent milestones including successful payload delivery, engine relight, and precision splashdown.

• Recovery and analysis of returned vehicles provide critical data for future flights, improving heat shield performance and reusability.

• Upcoming flights will transition from demonstration to revenue-generating missions, with plans to recover both first and second stages later this year.

Orbital compute and AI infrastructure

• Orbital compute is viewed as the future of AI infrastructure, offering clean energy and fewer terrestrial constraints.

• First orbital compute satellites are targeted for launch next year, with significant scale expected by 2028.

• Cost advantages stem from reusability and efficiency improvements, with orbital compute expected to reach cost parity with terrestrial solutions as early as next year.
