Further details regarding the investor eligibility criteria are set forth in this prospectus. This prospectus has been approved by the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (Bundesanstalt fur Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht, or "Bafin") as competent authority under the Prospectus Regulation. Bafin only approves this prospectus as meeting the standards of completeness, comprehensibility and consistency imposed by the Prospectus Regulation. Bafm's approval should not be considered as an endorsement of the Company nor of the quality of the offered shares of Class A common stock. Investors should make their own assessment as to the suitability of investing in the securities. The Company has requested Bafin to notify the approved prospectus in accordance with Article 25 of the Prospectus Regulation, with a certificate of approval attesting that this prospectus has been prepared in accordance with the Prospectus Regulation, the Danish supervisory authority Finanstilsynet, the Dutch supervisory authority Autoriteit Financiele Markten (AFM), the French supervisory authority Autofite des Marches Financiers (AMF), the Norwegian supervisory authority Finanstilsynet - Financial Supervisory Authority, the Spanish supervisory authority Comision Nacional del Mercado de Valores (CNMV) and the Swedish supervisory authority Finansinspektionen (FI). The European retail offering contemplated by this prospectus is part of a global offering consisting of (i) a public offering in the United States of America (the "United States") (the "U.S. offering"), (ii) the European retail offering, (iii) a public offering in Australia, (iv) a public offering in certain provinces and territories of Canada, (v) a public offering in Japan, (vi) a public offering in the United Kingdom, (vii) a public offering in Switzerland to individual persons or legal entities which do not qualify as professional clients within the meaning of the Swiss Financial Services Act ("FinSA") and on the basis of this prospectus as filed with a Swiss prospectus office for automatic acceptance in accordance with article 54(2) of the FinSA, and (viii) private placements (the offerings contemplated under (ii) through (viii) collectively, the "international offering", and together with the U.S. offering, the "global offering"). The European retail offering comprises a maximum of 55,555,555 newly issued shares of Class A common stock (the "European retail shares"). The global offering initially comprises: (i) 555,555,555 newly issued shares of Class A common stock (the "base shares"), including the European retail shares, and (ii) up to 83,333,333 newly issued additional shares of Class A common stock to cover potential over-allotments (the "additional shares"). The European retail shares form a tranche within the global offering. Any shares offered in the global offering which do not form part of the European retail tranche are offered in any Member State of the European Economic Area (the "EEA") solely in circumstances falling within the scope of application of Article 1(4) of the Prospectus Regulation. Under U.S. Securities laws, the Company has the ability to upsize the U.S. offering, and thereby increase the number of shares offered in the U.S. offering, by filing an amendment to the registration statement filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") prior to the effectiveness of such registration statement.

Rule 462(b) under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") governing the U.S. offering, the Company may register additional securities under its registration statement filed with the SEC by way of an amendment referred to as an automatically effective post-effective amendment in an amount and at a price that together represent no more than 20% of the maximum aggregate offering price, calculated as the gross proceeds to be received by the Company for the issuance of the offered base shares at the expected offering price together with the additional shares. Consequently, the total number of shares offered in the global offering may increase. However, there will be no increase of the number of shares offered in the European retail offering if the number of shares offered in the global offering is increased. If and to the extent the European retail shares are not subscribed for by eligible retail investors or if the Company and the European underwriters (as defined below) decide to reduce the number of offered European retail shares or set a final amount of European retail shares offered below the maximum number of shares offered under this prospectus, the European retail shares not subscribed for or no longer offered under this prospectus, respectively, may be offered and sold in the global offering, provided that in any Member States of the EEA they will be offered solely in circumstances falling within the scope of application of Article 1(4) of the Prospectus Regulation. For purposes of the U.S. offering, an expected offering price of $135.00 has been set. For purposes of the European retail offering, the maximum offering price has been set at $162.00. Eligible retail investors placing orders below $135.00, the expected price for the U.S. offering, should not expect to receive an allocation in the European retail offering. The final public offering price will be a single price per share of Class A common stock applicable to all investors across the entire global offering, including this European retail offering. The Company has applied to list its Class A common stock on the stock markets of Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the "Nasdaq") and Nasdaq Texas, Inc. ("Nasdaq Texas") under the trading symbol "SPCX".

D. — Key Information on the Offering of the Securities and the Admission to Trading D.1 — Under which Conditions and Timetable can I invest in this Security? Scope of the European retail The European retail offering consists of public offerings of the European retail shares in offering Germany, Denmark, France, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain and Sweden. The European retail offering contemplated by this prospectus foil_is a tranche within the global offering. Under U.S. Securities laws, the Company has the ability to upsize the U.S. offering, and thereby increase the number of shares offered in the U.S. offering, by filing an amendment to the registration statement filed with the SEC prior to the effectiveness of such registration statement. In addition, under Rule 462(b) under the U.S. Securities Act governing the U.S. offering, the Company may register additional securities under its registration statement filed with the SEC by way of an amendment referred to as an automatically effective post-effective amendment in an amount and at a price that together represent no more than 20% of the maximum aggregate offering price, calculated as the gross proceeds to be received by the Company for the issuance of the offered base shares at the expected price for the U.S. offering together with the additional shares. Consequently, the total number of shares offered in the global offering may increase. However, there will be no increase of the number of shares offered in the European retail offering if the number of shares offered in the global offering is increased. If and to the extent the European retail shares are not subscribed for by eligible retail investors or if the Company and the European underwriters decide to reduce the number of offered European retail shares or set a final amount of European retail shares offered below the maximum number of shares offered under this prospectus, the European retail shares not subscribed for or no longer offered under this prospectus, respectively, may be offered and sold in the global offering, provided that in any Member States of the EEA they will be offered solely in circumstances falling within the scope of application of Article 1(4) of the Prospectus Regulation. Maximum Offering Price $162.00 per share of Class A common stock. For purposes of the U.S. offering, an expected price of $135.00 has been set. For purposes of the European retail offering, the maximum offering price has been set at $162.00. Investors placing orders below $135.00, which is the expected price for the U.S. offering, should not expect to receive an allocation in the European retail offering. Depending on the jurisdiction and bank or financial intelinediary, retail investors may or may not be able to indicate a price limit for orders or place unlimited orders. Orders without indicated price limit or unlimited orders submitted by retail investors will be valid up until the maximum public offering price.

1. RISK FACTORS This prospectus relates to the European retail offering of shares of Class A common stock in SpaceX. An investment in the shares of Class A common stock of SpaceX is subject to risks. In considering whether to invest in the shares of Class A common stock, investors should carefully consider the following risks in this prospectus. According to Article 16 of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 June 2017, on the prospectus to be published when securities are offered to the public or admitted to trading on a regulated market and repealing Directive 2003/71/EC, as amended, the risk factors featured in a prospectus must be limited to risks which are specific to the issuer and/or to the securities and which are material for taking an informed investment decision. Therefore, the following risks are only those risks that are specific to SpaceX Group and to SpaceX's shares of Class A common stock and, based on SpaceX's current assessment, material for making an informed investment decision. The following risk factors are categorized into categories based on their respective nature. Within each such category, the order of risk factors is based on SpaceX's current assessment with respect to the probability of occurrence and expected magnitude of the negative impact of such risk factors. In each category, the two most material risk factors are mentioned first according to the current assessment based on the probability of their occurrence and the expected magnitude of their negative impact. Consequently, the value of the shares of Class A common stock of SpaceX could decrease as a result of the occurrence of any of these risks, and prospective investors could lose all or part of their investment. The risks mentioned may materialize individually or cumulatively. 1.1 Risks Related to Our Space Segment Any failure or delay in the development of Starship at scale or in achieving the required launch cadence, reusability and capabilities thereafter would delay or limit our ability to execute our growth strategy, including the deployment of next-generation satellites, global satellite-to-mobile connectivity, and orbital AI compute, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. If we are unable to successfully complete the development, testing, and deployment of Starship — a fully reusable, super heavy-lift launch vehicle — at scale in accordance with our anticipated schedule, or at all, or if we are unable to achieve sufficient launch cadence, reusability, and capability, our ability to execute our growth strategy (such as the deployment of our next-generation V3 satellites, V2 satellite-to-mobile connectivity, and providing orbital AI compute infrastructure) would be materially and adversely affected. The commercial deployment of Starship, particularly at scale, is subject to substantial risks and uncertainties inherent in the development of new and complex technologies and systems. Delays or challenges in the Starship program have in the past occurred, and may occur in the future due to a variety of factors, including unforeseen technical challenges, supply chain disruptions, manufacturing difficulties, delays in the development, construction or commissioning of launch and fueling infrastructure (such as launch pads, air separation units and other propellant production systems), unavailability of such launch and fueling infrastructure (including launch pads) in sufficient number and in operable condition (including as a result of mishaps), loss or damage to the vehicle or other components, regulatory hurdles, or the need for additional design modifications. If we are required to undertake unanticipated redesigns, conduct additional testing, replace lost vehicles or components, or address operational setbacks, we may experience delays and incur significant additional costs, or be forced to reallocate critical resources from other projects. If our launch pads are not available for an extended period of time for any reason, we may not be able to achieve our development, testing and deployment goals. Such delays could have cascading effects on our ability to achieve the scale we need to timely achieve future objectives. In addition, a critical part of our growth strategy involves increasing our launch cadence, reusability and capability, including increasing our payload per launch. This will require, among other things, the successful development and operation of reusable launch vehicles, substantially increased access to raw materials and components like steel, fuel and propellant, the construction of additional facilities and securing of additional launch sites or rights to additional launches from existing sites, and navigating complex and evolving regulatory requirements and environmental and technological issues as we seek to increase our launch cadence. Our rocket programs have historically required substantial time and resources to reach the cadence and cost thresholds necessary for commercial viability, and the development of Starship may face similar or greater challenges. Any significant delay in achieving key development milestones, obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals or increasing and maintaining our launch cadence, reusability, and capability would impede the expansion of our service offerings, defer anticipated revenue streams, and negatively impact our growth trajectory and competitive positioning in rapidly evolving markets. -1- , f ll li , f f f f ll ’ , ’ , f f ll f it , f ’ i f t f f i tl , ti ti 1.1.1 f il i t ti f f t s – –


 
Our ability to execute our growth strategy is highly dependent on Starship. If we are unable to achieve the commercial development, anticipated performance, launch cadence, or cost efficiencies associated with Starship within expected timeframes, our ability to deploy next-generation V3 satellites, V2 Mobile satellites, and orbital AI compute infrastructure at scale, reduce capital and operating costs (including cost per token), realize projected revenue growth, and retain existing customers from these initiatives could be materially and adversely affected. This includes our expectations with respect to completion of flight testing of Starship and commencement of payload delivery to orbit. Our current operational rockets, including Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy, are not capable of deploying V3 satellites and V2 Mobile satellites. In addition, our ability to pursue new initiatives and capture emerging business opportunities — particularly those requiring high launch cadence, large payload capacity, or advanced in-space capabilities, such as lunar operations and interplanetary missions — depends on the timely and successful deployment of Starship and achieving our targeted launch cadence. Achieving our targeted launch cadence will require significant progress on several key milestones and the continued investment of significant capital resources. These include: securing additional land and developing high-rate launch sites and supporting infrastructure across multiple locations; scaling production of Starship vehicles and Raptor engines; constructing propellant production facilities, including air separation units and methane liquefaction plants co-located with launch sites; securing sufficient power supply; and obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals, particularly from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (the "FAA"), to support a high launch cadence while addressing public safety and environmental considerations. We face a number of material challenges and uncertainties in achieving these milestones, such as achieving reliable high-cadence return-to-launch-site operations for the full vehicle stack, developing durable reusable heat shields capable of withstanding repeated high-velocity reentries, ensuring rapid refurbishment and high-rate reusability of engines and other vehicle components, managing public and regulatory tolerance for anomalies during the transition to frequent operational flights, securing sufficient power for both manufacturing and launch operations, and obtaining timely regulatory approvals from the FAA and other agencies. Orbital refueling involves technical complexities associated with cryogenic propellant transfer in microgravity, propellant settling, and boil-off management and is required for lunar and interplanetary objectives. If Starship does not achieve full reusability or rapid turnaround, we may experience higher per-launch costs, slower deployment timelines for our large-scale constellations (including our orbital AI compute program), delayed revenue growth, and increased overall capital requirements, and our brand and reputation may suffer. AI compute satellites at scale need full Starship reusability to be economically compelling. Without full reusability and rapid turnaround, Starship would still be capable of enabling progress on our next-generation Starlink, satellite-to-mobile, initial lunar objectives, and early AI compute satellite deployments, but such progress would be at a slower pace and higher cost. Any inability to deliver Starship to market as planned could constrain our participation in new or expanding addressable markets, limit our competitive differentiation, and hinder our efforts to attract and retain customers. We may be unable to achieve our objectives with respect to Starship within the expected timeframes, if at all. Delays or setbacks could materially impact our strategic plans. The occurrence of any of these risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.1.2 Any delays or difficulties in obtaining, maintaining or renewing required regulatory approvals and licenses required for our space-related activities, including U.S. Federal Aviation Administration launch and reentry licenses, would materially delay or disrupt our operations, harm our business, or limit our ability to execute our business strategy. Our launch services are subject to extensive regulation in the United States and internationally. We must secure and maintain numerous governmental approvals to launch our rockets and conduct related launch and reentry activities. Any failure or significant delay in obtaining required licenses and permits or failure to maintain them could disrupt our operations, constrain our growth, and adversely affect our ability to serve our customers. Our plans to deploy large-scale orbital infrastructure, including orbital AI compute systems, will require the operation of very large satellite constellations, potentially numbering up to one million satellites. These plans will depend on obtaining a wide range of domestic and international approvals, including spectrum authorizations, orbital debris mitigation approvals, and coordination and authorization requirements relating to space situational awareness and international regulatory regimes, and we may not obtain such approvals on acceptable timelines, terns, or at all. We depend on timely approvals from the FAA to conduct our launch operations. If we do not receive FAA launch licenses or related approvals on the schedules we anticipate or if we are subject to regulatory delays, we could be forced to delay or cancel planned launches, which could cause missed customer commitments, increased costs, and underutilization of our launch resources. Obtaining a launch license involves rigorous safety -2- – – “ ” f te y m


 
and environmental reviews, and unforeseen issues in meeting these requirements or additional conditions imposed during the review process could also impact our launch timelines. For example, current FAA regulations do not permit return-to-launch-site reentries for Starship, requiring us to obtain a waiver from the FAA, which is not guaranteed and could delay or restrict such operations. Following an anomaly, mishap, or failure, the FAA or other authorities may require investigations, impose corrective actions, or restrict or delay our ability to conduct launch operations. For example, several Starship flight tests (including the 12th) have resulted in FAA mishap determinations and SpaceX-led investigations, with Starship's return to flight conditioned on the FAA determining that any system, process, or procedure related to the mishap does not affect public safety, along with approving and verifying the implementation of any required corrective actions. We have in the past been, and may in the future become, subject to such actions, impacting our ability to increase launch cadence. The regulatory framework governing commercial launches may also evolve over time. The FAA or other authorities could introduce new or more stringent requirements for launch licensing — for instance, heightened safety standards, environmental mitigation measures, or other operational restrictions — that could require us to invest in new technologies, adjust our procedures, or otherwise incur additional compliance burdens. Moreover, as the frequency of our launches and industry activity overall continues to grow, the FAA's resources may become strained, which could lead to longer application processing times and other difficulties obtaining FAA licenses. Any significant delay in receiving required FAA licenses, the imposition of onerous new licensing conditions, or failure to obtain an approval for a key launch, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.1.3 We have experienced, and will likely continue to experience, launch delays and failures that could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. Launch vehicle underperfou lance, propulsion anomalies, structural failures, software errors, or other malfunctions could result in launch delays or partial or total mission failures, including the loss of satellites, launch pads, vehicles, or payloads. The occurrence of mission failures or other significant operational disruptions could also expose us to litigation as well as increased scrutiny from regulatory authorities, lead to the imposition of additional compliance requirements, and adversely affect our brand and reputation, and our ability to obtain future licenses, peunits, or government contracts. We do not typically obtain insurance coverage for our satellites, payloads, or launch vehicles, and as a result we bear the full financial cost of any such losses. Repeated anomalies or high visibility mission failures could also negatively affect our brand, reputation, ability to win new business, and our customers' ability to procure launch and in-orbit insurance at competitive rates (to the extent we decide to pursue it). Such repeated anomalies or mission failures could also result in, regulators delaying, conditioning or denying approvals, waivers or licenses required for future launches or reentries, which could reduce our launch cadence and delay the deployment of our satellites and other services. In the past, certain of our launch vehicles have experienced partial or total mission failures, including anomalies that resulted in launch pad destruction, the loss of payloads and damage to launch vehicles. In certain circumstances, mission failures could result in debris from our launch vehicles causing significant damage to persons or property on the ground as well as environmental damage. Similar or other failures may occur with future launches. In addition, satellites may be deployed into incorrect or suboptimal orbits due to vehicle perfoiinance issues, separation events, or guidance, navigation and control errors. Incorrect orbital placement can materially reduce a satellite's operational life, impair perfoiinance, increase fuel consumption, or render the satellite unusable. The occurrence of any of these risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.1.4 Our services are subject to risks related to supplying services to the U.S. government. Supplying services to the U.S. government subjects us to unique risks, including compliance with complex regulations, vulnerability to changes in government priorities or funding levels, and exposure to contractual disputes or audits. In 2025, approximately one-fifth of our revenue was attributable to agencies within the U.S. federal government. As a contractor to various U.S. government agencies, we are subject to extensive federal procurement regulations, including the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), as well as other rules governing cost accounting, cybersecurity, ethics, and national security. These regulations impose stringent requirements on our operations, business practices, and reporting, and noncompliance could result in civil or criminal penalties, suspension or debarment from government contracting, or loss of existing or future business. These requirements, although customary in U.S. government contracts, increase our performance and compliance costs. These costs might increase in the future. For those reasons and in order to achieve our orbital compute goals, we may prioritize our own launch payloads over additional U.S. government contracts or third-party customers. This prioritization of launch -3- i ’ – – ’ fail f f t s rm rm ’ rm t ’ rm


 
capacity may limit revenue growth in our Space segment, and impact our relationship with regulators, and could invite litigation from customers or competitors. In addition, government contracts are susceptible to unilateral teunination, reduction in scope, or delays at the government's convenience, which may occur due to shifting budgetary priorities, changes in defense or space policy, or the reallocation of funding to other programs. The teunination or reduction of funding for a government program could result in a loss of anticipated future revenue attributable to that program. The actual receipt of revenue on awards may never occur or may change because a program schedule could change or the program could be canceled, or a contract could be reduced, modified, or teuninated early. In addition, in certain circumstances, governments or other customers may be reluctant to rely on our satellite connectivity or defense-related services if they believe the availability of such services could be restricted or suspended based on geopolitical considerations, conflicts, sanctions, or other policy deteuninations, which could adversely affect our ability to win or retain contracts. In addition, our significant business relationships with U.S. defense and government agencies may cause us to be perceived as closely aligned with the U.S. government or military. This perception could discourage certain consumers, enterprises, or foreign governments from purchasing our products and services which could adversely affect our sales in the United States and internationally. We and our facilities could also be targeted by foreign adversaries and non-state actors due to such perception. Government customers may also subject our contracts to rigorous audits and investigations, which can result in disputes regarding contract perfounance, cost allowability, or compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Adverse audit findings or contractual disputes could lead to repayments, financial penalties, or restrictions on our ability to compete for future contracts. Certain of our government contracts also require that we maintain facility security clearances and that certain of our employees obtain and maintain personnel security clearances. Obtaining and maintaining these clearances involves a lengthy and uncertain process and depends on factors outside of our control, and we may experience delays in receiving required clearances or be unable to hire or retain a sufficient number of employees with the necessary clearances to perfolin under certain contracts. If we are unable to obtain or maintain required facility or personnel security clearances, we may be unable to bid on, win, or perfolin certain classified programs, and existing contracts could be teuninated or not renewed, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. Further, our business is subject to economic sanctions and trade embargo laws, various import regulations, including tariffs, and stringent U.S. import and export control laws. Any failure by us to comply with any of the foregoing could result in our debarment from government contracts, limitations on our ability to enter into contracts with the U.S. government, civil or criminal penalties, fines, investigations, more onerous compliance requirements, or loss of export privileges, and any inability to obtain or maintain required security clearances or any failure to comply with applicable procurement, export control, or sanctions requirements, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. I.I.5 We derive significant revenue from U.S. government contracts that are subject to competitive bidding, funding approvals and other government budgetary processes, which factors could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. We derive significant revenue from U.S. government contracts that were awarded through a competitive bidding process. Competitive bidding presents a number of risks, including: the need to bid on programs in advance of the completion of their design, which may result in unforeseen technological difficulties and cost overruns; the substantial cost and managerial time and effort that must be spent to prepare bids and proposals for contracts that may not be awarded to us; the need to estimate accurately the resources and cost structure that will be required to service any contract we are awarded; and the expense and delay that may arise if interested parties or our competitors protest or challenge contract awards made to us pursuant to competitive bidding, and the risk that any such protest or challenge could result in the delay of our contract perfounance, the distraction of management, the resubmission of bids on modified specifications, or in teunination, reduction or modification of the awarded contract. Our business with governmental entities is subject to changes in policies, priorities, regulations, mandates, and funding levels, any of which could materially impact our operations and financial results. U.S. government program funding is subject to Congressional appropriations on a fiscal year basis even though contract perfounance may take more than one year. As a result, at the outset of a major program, the contract is usually incrementally funded and additional funds are normally committed to the contract only as Congress makes appropriations in future fiscal years. U.S. government contracts may also be undefinitized at the time of the start of performance. Under undefinitized contract actions, the U.S. government has the ability to unilaterally definitize contracts and, absent a successful appeal of such action, the unilateral definitization of the contract would obligate us to perfoiin under teens and conditions imposed by the U.S. government. Such unilaterally imposed contract -4- rm t’ rm rm rm rm rm rm rm 1.1. fro f fact f f t s rm rm rm rm rm


 
teii_is could include less favorable pricing or teii_is and conditions more burdensome than those negotiated in other circumstances. U.S. government contracts typically involve long lead times for design and development and are subject to significant changes in contract scheduling. Additionally, the U.S. government's budget deficit and the national debt, as well as any inability of the U.S. government to complete its budget process for any government fiscal year and consequently having to shut down or operate on funding levels equivalent to its prior fiscal year pursuant to a "continuing resolution," could have a material and adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. Moreover, if we fail to establish and maintain important relationships with U.S. government agencies, our ability to successfully maintain and develop new business could be materially and adversely affected. The current political environment in the United States is highly polarized, and shifts in the composition of the U.S. Congress or changes in the presidential administration can result in significant changes in government spending priorities, regulatory posture, and the allocation of contracts and resources across industries and programs. Our relationships with U.S. government agencies and the favorability of the regulatory and procurement environment in which we operate may be affected by which political party controls the presidency or one or both chambers of the U.S. Congress. As a result, current government relationships, contracts, or levels of funding may not be maintained, and any significant adverse developments could have a material and adverse impact on our growth and competitive position. In addition, our Space segment revenue is primarily derived from fixed-price contracts, under which we agree to deliver specified products or services at a predeteunined price regardless of the actual costs incurred. As a result, if we experience cost overruns on these contracts, including from factors outside our control, we are required to absorb the excess costs, which may reduce profitability or result in losses, strain cash flows, and impact our ability to invest in future growth. Any unanticipated increases in labor, material, or other direct or indirect costs — including those arising from inflation, supply chain disruptions, design changes, regulatory requirements, or unforeseen technical challenges — must be borne by us. When these overruns occur, our margins on affected contracts may be significantly reduced or eliminated, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. Additionally, absorbing excess costs may limit our ability to allocate resources to other strategic initiatives, delay investment in research and development, or constrain our capacity to pursue new business opportunities. In addition, we sometimes receive advanced payments and billings in excess of the amount of revenue we recognize, which we record as deferred revenue. As a result, our cash flows may be subject to fluctuation across periods in a manner that may be unrelated to our underlying perfounance. 1.2 Risks Related to Our Connectivity Segment 1.2.1 Any delays or difficulties in obtaining, maintaining or renewing required communications licenses and spectrum authorizations for our satellite connectivity services, including international and Federal Communications Commission satellite spectrum licenses, could materially delay or disrupt our operations, harm our business, or limit our ability to execute our business strategy. Our satellite connectivity services are subject to extensive regulation in the United States and internationally. Obtaining and maintaining communications licenses and approvals from U.S. and foreign regulatory authorities is critical to our connectivity services. Our satellite connectivity, including our global satellite-to-mobile connectivity services under Starlink Mobile, depend on access to radio frequency spectrum and authorizations from the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") in the United States and telecommunications regulators in other countries. Without these licenses and approvals, we generally cannot offer connectivity services in a given market. Acquiring the necessary authorizations can be a complex and time- consuming process, often involving technical coordination, public-interest or national security reviews, and cross- border considerations, including in certain jurisdictions where regulatory processes may be influenced by protectionist policies or preferences. Spectrum access itself is limited and highly regulated. In September 2025, we announced a definitive agreement with EchoStar Corporation ("EchoStar") to purchase its AWS-4 and H- Block Licenses (as defined below). The Spectrum Transaction (as defined below) was approved by the FCC on May 12, 2026 and is subject to other closing conditions prior to completion. We expect the Spectrum Transaction to close in November 2027. These conditions may not be satisfied or waived in a timely manner, or at all. Even if the transaction is completed, our purchase of licenses from EchoStar may not be sufficient to meet our growing need for spectrum licenses and we may be unable to find other parties to provide us with additional spectrum licenses on teims acceptable to us, or at all. We may in the future pursue additional acquisitions, leases, or other arrangements relating to spectrum rights in order to support the expansion of our connectivity services, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to enter into or complete any such transactions or arrangements on acceptable teims, or at all. Any such future transactions or arrangements could require significant capital commitments, ongoing payment obligations, and regulatory approvals. In addition, we must secure the global -5- rm rm t’ “ ” rm – – rm i f ti t “ ” “ t ” r r


 
right to use the spectrum acquired from EchoStar from a number of international telecommunications regulators in order to make our V2 satellite-to-mobile services usable worldwide, and such authorizations may not be granted on acceptable teims, or at all. Moreover, our rights to use certain frequencies are coordinated through the International Telecommunication Union ("ITU") and are subject to international agreements to prevent haunful interference. We must comply with ITU rules and coordination procedures, and changes in international spectrum allocations or adverse decisions in global regulatory forums could also reduce the frequencies available to us or attach conditions that degrade our network's perfounance. Additionally, third parties have in the past, and may in the future, obtain spectrum rights for the purpose of blocking market entry. Regulatory regimes for communications services vary widely across different countries and are continuously evolving. Each country may impose its own licensing conditions and operating requirements on satellite internet providers — for example, mandates to partner with a local entity, to host certain infrastructure within its borders, or to adhere to specific standards relating to data privacy and cybersecurity (including data localization) and, in some cases, regulators may deny, delay or decline to grant authorization for us to operate or use our spectrum in their jurisdiction at all. Regimes in certain of our target markets may also favor incumbent or legacy telecommunications companies, which may impede, delay, or prevent our ability to enter such markets. Compliance with the different requirements of applicable regulatory regimes can be challenging and costly, and any failure to comply with local laws and regulations could lead to penalties or the loss of our authorization to operate in that region. Furthermore, communications regulatory authorizations often require periodic renewal and ongoing compliance with conditions such as deployment milestones, fee payments, and interference mitigation obligations. If we are unable to obtain, retain, and renew the necessary spectrum rights and service licenses on acceptable teens in each of our target markets, or if regulatory bodies significantly delay our authorizations or impose burdensome requirements, our ability to expand and continue our connectivity services would be jeopardized, which would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.2.2 Our Starlink and other satellite services are subject to complex and evolving U.S. and foreign laws and regulations, particularly relating to data privacy, cybersecurity, and telecommunications. Our Starlink and other satellite services are subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the United States and abroad covering cybersecurity, privacy, data use, data combination, data protection, data security, data retention and deletion, data localization and storage, and data disclosure to law enforcement agencies. As a satellite internet and communications provider, we collect and otherwise process various kinds of data in connection with our services, such as customer personal infounation, account registration infounation, device identifiers, network and connectivity data, and government infounation. These laws and regulations govern how we handle such infounation, and they may, among others, impose requirements relating to cybersecurity and privacy governance, data security measures, data security breach notification, cross border data transfers, and customer consent obligations. In particular, the California Consumer Privacy Act (as amended), the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") (and its equivalent in the United Kingdom) and other data privacy laws and regulations impose stringent and burdensome requirements in connection with the processing of personal infounation and include significant penalties for non-compliance. Additionally, as a government contractor, we are also subject to the Department of War's Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification requirements, which requires companies that do business with the Department of War to, depending on the level of scrutiny required, meet or exceed certain specified cybersecurity standards to be eligible for new contract awards. Many of these laws and regulations are subject to change and uncertain interpretation, and their application may vary significantly across jurisdictions. Compliance may require us to modify our policies, procedures, and controls, and increase our compliance costs and operational complexity. We may post public privacy policies and other statements regarding our collection, storage, sharing and other processing of personal information, and any actual or perceived failure to comply with such privacy policies and other statements, as well as the foregoing data privacy and cybersecurity laws and regulations, may subject us to enforcement actions, investigations, litigation, reputational halm or requirements to modify or cease our business practices. 1.2.3 The continued proliferation of satellite constellations in Low-Earth Orbit, as well as the risk of collisions with space debris or other spacecraft, could limit or impair our launch flexibility and satellite deployment, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. The continued proliferation of Low-Earth Orbit ("LEO") constellations can increase the risk of collisions with space debris or other spacecraft if operators fail to adhere to responsible space safety, debris mitigation, or -6- r “ ” rm ’ rm – rm i forei ti l iv t rm rm rm rm ’ “ ” rm r’ r l flexi il fi f t “ ”


 
coordination practices. Our growth strategy depends, in part, on continuing to launch additional satellites into LEO. As the number of satellites and other objects in LEO continues to grow, the probability of accidental collisions, fragmentation events, or other in-orbit incidents increases, which could result in the loss or degradation of our satellites, increased costs for collision avoidance maneuvers, or the need to replace or reposition assets on an accelerated schedule. Not all satellite operators or other space actors adhere to the same rigorous space safety, debris mitigation, or coordination practices that we adhere to, which may increase the likelihood of congestion, conjunctions, or other operational risks outside of our control and, in extreme cases, could contribute to fragmentation events or cascading debris effects that further increase collision risks in LEO. In addition, some domestic and international authorities have applied heightened regulatory scrutiny as interest in utilizing LEO for satellite operations has increased. Debris mitigation regulations may emerge if congestion increases. Failure to meet debris requirements could result in monetary penalties or loss of licensing authority, which would adversely affect our satellite constellation deployment and expansion plans, and future regulatory actions could impose more restrictive operational, deployment, or debris mitigation requirements that could limit our ability to launch or operate satellites in LEO. In addition, there is a burgeoning effort to further regulate LEO, Mid-Earth Orbit ("MEO"), and geostationary orbit ("GEO") and establish liability regimes for operators, including regimes similar to those under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, which imposes strict liability for environmental contamination or remediation costs, as well as growing concern over the potential environmental effects of emissions and other byproducts from rocket launches in Earth's upper atmosphere. Furtheunore, any damage to our satellites or impaiii_lent of their functionality resulting from collisions with space debris or other spacecraft could materially and adversely affect our ability to deliver reliable services to our customers, haun our reputation, and expose us to potential contractual liabilities or insurance claims. The growing challenges associated with space debris management may require us to invest in additional technologies or processes to safeguard our assets and maintain compliance with evolving regulatory frameworks. The occurrence of any of these risks may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.2.4 Our ability to expand our Starlink consumer and enterprise connectivity services depends on our ability to increase market awareness and acceptance of connectivity through Starlink, and any failure to do so could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. Our ability to expand our Starlink consumer and enterprise connectivity services depends on our ability to increase market awareness and acceptance of connectivity through Starlink. We may be unable to increase awareness. In particular, such efforts may not be successful if we are unable to offer Starlink services at competitive prices. Additionally, constraints in the distribution of user terminals could delay service activations, increase costs, or otherwise limit our ability to scale such services as anticipated. Consumer acceptance may also be hindered by the presence of well-established terrestrial broadband alternatives, as well as lingering perceptions regarding service reliability, latency, and the complexity of satellite-based internet compared to traditional fixed- line solutions. 1.2.5 The expansion of our satellite-to-mobile connectivity services depends substantially on our ability to secure and maintain partnerships with mobile network operators and on the adoption of necessary hardware and software modifications by device manufacturers, and any failure to do so could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. The expansion of our global satellite-to-mobile connectivity offerings depends substantially on our ability to enter into and maintain successful partnerships with telecommunications carriers and spectrum licensees globally, and to obtain country-specific authorizations to offer such connectivity using satellite spectrum bands for which we have international coordination rights. In the United States, we expect to be able to provide 5G-like connectivity to a meaningful portion of existing unmodified devices through our Starlink Mobile Gen2 service utilizing our V2 Mobile satellites, either by operating on spectrum leased to us by mobile network operator ("MNO") partners or by utilizing our own domestic spectrum holdings. However, achieving full 5G NR-NTN compliance and optimal perfoiinance would likely require handset manufacturers to implement hardware and software modifications, primarily to the radio-frequency front end, in future devices. The spectrum frequencies in the FCC licenses to be acquired from Echo Star are standardized for terrestrial 5G mobile broadband (3GPP bands n66 and n70). But the 5G NR-NTN bands for these same frequencies, such as n252 and n256, are not currently -7- “ ” “ ” ’ rm rm rm ti ti f il f f t s ti t f il fi f t s “ ” rm


 
supported by RF front-end hardware for the provision of 5G-like service in any commercially available mobile devices. We do not have direct contractual arrangements with handset manufacturers; instead, we expect MNO partners, as major purchasers of mobile devices, to encourage or drive such adoption. There can be no assurance that these modifications will be adopted on our preferred timeline, or at all. Internationally, we face similar constraints until handset manufacturers implement hardware and software modifications to support the international spectrum authorizations to be obtained from EchoStar. As a result, our near-teim international service strategy depends on our ability to establish MNO spectrum partnerships on a market-by-market basis, which does not require device hardware modifications but is subject to the successful negotiation and execution of commercial agreements in each jurisdiction. Until device manufacturers incorporate support for our international spectrum bands into future handsets, we will be unable to offer 5G-like direct-to- consumer service on our own international spectrum. The provision of our satellite-to-mobile services also requires regulatory approvals from the FCC and foreign regulatory authorities. Our Genl service, utilizing our existing constellation of VI mobile satellites, is fully licensed in the United States but requires additional country-by-country approvals to operate internationally. We have signed MNO partnerships for our Genl service in approximately 30 countries. These partnerships represent commercial agreements with carriers but do not, by themselves, provide the regulatory approvals necessary to offer service. In addition to at least one MNO partnership, we have obtained required approvals to offer commercial Genl service in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Japan, and Australia, as well as in several additional countries. Our Gen2 service, which will utilize 2 GHz S-band spectrum and a new satellite constellation, requires a license transfer, a constellation license, and spectrum usage approvals in each country in which we seek to operate. For the United States, we have received the relevant license transfer approval from the FCC, and we expect to receive the remaining necessary regulatory authorizations in the second or third quarter of 2026. While these authorizations would be sufficient from a United States regulatory perspective, we still require our V2 Mobile satellites to be in orbit and must complete the acquisition of the relevant spectrum from EchoStar before we can commence our planned commercial Gen2 service in the United States. Internationally, we have filed applications in nearly every country in which we intend to operate our Gen2 service, and approvals have been granted in a limited number of these jurisdictions to date. Each jurisdiction presents its own regulatory process and timeline, and we cannot predict when or whether approvals will be granted in any given market. Subject to regulatory approvals, we are receiving from EchoStar certain assets and authorizations that provide very senior ITU priority for international frequency coordination for our V2 Mobile constellation. Until such approvals are obtained, we also signed a coordination agreement with EchoStar to obtain the protection of its senior ITU priority rights until the authorizations transfer. However, some countries have signaled through public consultations or other actions that they are considering ignoring or diminishing ITU priority as a mechanism to decide which operators are licensed to operate in their country. Several countries and regions have open inquiries that invite input on whether factors other than ITU priority (such as whether the operator originates from the country) should govern the issuance of spectrum licenses, and we cannot be certain the outcome of these proceedings. Delays or failures to obtain necessary approvals could materially delay the deployment and commercialization of our Gen2 service. The failure to enter into or successfully maintain such partnerships, or the failure of device manufacturers to adopt the necessary hardware modifications, or the failure to obtain required regulatory approvals, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.3 Risks Related to Our AI Segment 1.3.1 Our ability to scale our AI products relies on our terrestrial and future orbital AI compute infrastructure, which depends on the availability of power, water, AI processors, and other critical components, and telecommunications services, and any shortages or disruptions thereof would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. Our ability to scale our data center infrastructure, which supports our AI segment, is increasingly constrained by the availability of power and water at economically feasible prices, long lead times, availability of materials, and changing regulatory requirements. For example, energy supply is constrained globally due to the significant increase in demand for, and limited availability of, energy to power AI compute, and significant water resources may be required for cooling large-scale data center operations. Securing this capacity can involve entering into complex, long-lead-time arrangements or proceeding with alternative sources of power generation, -8- r 1 1 1 1 f t fi f t s


 
and water availability has become a critical consideration in data center site selection, development and operations. We currently rely significantly on natural gas and gas turbine technology to power our data center operations. As such, our ability to scale our infrastructure depends in part on our continued access to natural gas supply at economically feasible prices, the availability of gas turbines and related equipment, and the maintenance of a regulatory environment that permits and supports the use of natural gas for large-scale power generation. In addition, water scarcity, drought conditions, competition for local water resources, or regulatory restrictions on water use could limit our ability to obtain sufficient water for cooling, constrain data center cooling capacity, increase our costs, delay or limit expansion of our data center infrastructure, or require us to implement alternative cooling technologies that may be more costly or less available. Our AI products also rely on graphics processing units ("GPUs") and other processors, servers, network equipment and other critical components sourced from third-party suppliers for use in our data centers. Manufacturing and supply of servers and network equipment for our technical infrastructure, particularly for GPUs and other specialized components, is limited to a small number of qualified suppliers. We do not have any long-term or other material contractual arrangements with our direct chip suppliers, instead procuring all of our GPUs on a purchase-order basis. Our direct chip suppliers are dependent on a concentrated group of advanced semiconductor fabrication facilities, or "fabs." Any disruption to our upstream supply chain, including fab capacity constraints, manufacturing issues, shortages of raw materials such as silicon wafers or rare earth elements, geopolitical tensions affecting fab operations, or natural disasters impacting key fabrication regions, could limit our chip suppliers' ability to fulfill our orders, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Our ability to achieve orbital AI at scale depends on our ability to access a sufficient number of AI chips, significantly more than are currently available to us. While we expect to construct Terafab to address such supply constraints, Terafab may not be successful, in which case we may not have other sources of sufficient AI chips to meet our orbital AI compute demands. While Terafab is intended to expand our internal chip manufacturing capabilities and alleviate potential future AI chip shortages at SpaceX, particularly as we pursue orbital AI at scale, we expect to continue sourcing a significant portion of our compute hardware from third-party suppliers, and we may not be able to achieve our objectives with respect to Terafab within the expected timeframes, or at all. While we have a framework agreement with Tesla, neither Tesla nor Intel are obligated to remain a part of the project, and we may not enter into any such definitive agreements. Our AI segment also relies on services from third-party telecommunications providers, including connectivity to the cloud, and internet bandwidth suppliers to provide uninterrupted and error-free services through their networks. We may be unable to obtain AI processors or other necessary components or telecommunications services at prices or volumes that are acceptable to us or in a timely manner. Our suppliers and telecommunications and internet service providers also serve other customers, including certain of our competitors, and such suppliers or providers may prioritize capacity for such other customers, increase prices on short notice, require onerous prepayments, or reduce or delay deliveries to us. Any failure by our suppliers and service providers to meet our cost, quality, volume, or delivery requirements, or any shortage or disruption in the supply of chips, telecommunications services or other components required for our AI segment, or any inability to secure sufficient power or water resources for data center operations, could result in service disruption or outages, delay critical data center or network infrastructure upgrades or expansions, impair our ability to train our AI models and meet customer demand for our AI segment products and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. We also rely on third-party cloud compute providers for a portion of the compute used for our AI segment and may from time to time rely on third-party data center providers, which exposes us to several risks that are beyond our direct control, including vulnerability to outages, cooling capacity constraints, performance issues, and cyberattacks. We have non-cancellable, multi-year capacity commitments to cloud compute providers, requiring payment regardless of usage. A termination or lapse in service from third-party cloud compute and data center providers could expose us to service interruptions, significant delays, and additional expenses to re-architect products for a different provider. Additionally, in the event of nonperformance by us or our providers, or an industry downturn, we may incur liabilities, have excess capacity that we cannot easily redeploy, and fail to receive payments from our counterparties or customers. The occurrence of any of these risks could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.3.2 If the recommendations, forecasts, content, analyses or other output that our AI technologies, including Grok, assist in producing are or are alleged to be deficient, inaccurate, harmful, illegal, or used for an improper purpose, we could continue to be subjected to claims and investigations, and we could be subjected to legal liability and brand, reputational, or competitive harm. AI technologies, the models, algorithms, prompts and datasets on which they rely, and the recommendations, forecasts, analyses or other output that such AI technologies assist in producing, may be flawed, -9- “ ” “ ” ’ fore t l f


 
insufficient, of poor quality, rely upon incorrect, inaccurate, hail dui or illegal data, reflect unwanted fouls of bias, hallucinate, misrepresent, mislead or contain other errors or inadequacies, any of which may not be easily detectable. Although we devote significant resources to develop, test, and maintain our AI technologies, we may not be able to identify or resolve all AI-related issues, deficiencies, and failures before they arise. AI technologies have been known to produce mischaracterized or "hallucinatory" inferences or outputs, and certain of our AI products, such as Grok, have been alleged to be susceptible to "data poisoning" in the past. We may not have insight into, or control over, the practices of third parties who may utilize our AI technologies. As such, third parties have in the past used, and may in the future use, such AI technologies for improper purposes, including through the dissemination of illegal, inaccurate, defamatory or harmful content, intellectual property infringement or misappropriation, furthering bias or discrimination, cybersecurity attacks, including spear phishing and social engineering attacks, data privacy violations, other societal harms, including activities that threaten people's safety, financial security, or mental well-being on- or offline, or to develop competing technologies. Inappropriate or controversial data practices by data scientists, engineers, and end users of AI technologies, including our AI segment's systems, could impair the acceptance of AI technologies generally, including our AI products. If the recommendations, forecasts, content, or analyses that our AI technologies assist in producing are or are alleged to be deficient, inaccurate, offensive, illegal, or otherwise harmful, we could be subjected to claims and investigations, and we could be subjected to legal liability and brand, reputational or competitive harm. We have in the past been, and may in the future be, subject to regulatory investigations and litigation related to such claims regarding our recommendations, forecasts, content or analyses. Also please refer to "1.4.1 Our AI products and X platform are subject to complex and evolving U.S. and foreign laws and regulations regarding privacy, cybersecurity, data use, data combination, data protection, content, AI, competition, youth protection, safety, consumer protection and notification, advertising, e-commerce, sanctions, export controls, and other matters. Many of these laws and regulations are subject to change and uncertain interpretation, and we could be required to make changes to our products and business practices, and be exposed to monetary penalties, increased cost of operations, declines in user growth or engagement, or loss of customers, or other harm to our Al products and X platform." In addition, if we do not have sufficient rights to use the models, algorithms, prompts and datasets on which our AI technologies rely, or the recommendations, forecasts, content, analyses or other output that our AI technologies assist in producing, we could also incur liability through the violation of applicable laws and regulations, third-party intellectual property, privacy or other rights, or contracts to which we are a party. Furthermore, failure to properly disclose the use of consumer-facing AI technologies may result in consumer protection or regulatory enforcement activity. Use of AI technologies, including our AI products, may result in disruptions in, or unauthorized access to, users' computer systems, which could also lead to the unauthorized disclosure of sensitive (including classified), proprietary, confidential or personal information, new potential cyberattack methods for third parties or an increase in the frequency, sophistication or intensity of cyberattacks. Moreover, if AI technologies are perceived to be significantly disruptive to society, it could lead to governmental or regulatory restrictions or prohibitions on their use, societal concerns or unrest, or both, any of which could materially and adversely affect our ability to develop, deploy, or commercialize AI technologies and execute our business strategy. Our implementation of AI technologies, including through our AI segment's systems, could result in legal liability, regulatory action, operational disruption, brand, reputational or competitive harm, or other adverse impacts. 1.3.3 Our Al segment is recently formed, is still being fully integrated and optimized, operates in a rapidly evolving industry and is subject to significant execution, competitive and operational risks. We acquired xAI in February 2026 as the foundational platform for our AI segment and as part of our ambitious vertical integration strategy intended to combine artificial intelligence capabilities with our established Space and Connectivity businesses. Prior to its acquisition by the Company, xAI itself was an early-stage company. As a result, our AI segment remains in a relatively early stage of organizational and operational maturity and is subject to integration, scaling and execution risks. The successful integration of acquired businesses, technologies, strategic partners, and employees is inherently complex, costly and time-consuming, and may result in operational inefficiencies, delays, disruptions, increased costs, loss of knowledge and diversion of management attention. As is common in large acquisitions, we have had to take significant steps to integrate xAl's operations into our broader corporate structure as part of our AI segment, including putting in place the management team and organizational structure needed to execute at the scale and pace our strategy demands, as well as controls and procedures appropriate for a larger organization like ours. Many of these steps are not yet complete. We have undertaken, and continue to undertake, changes in personnel, strategic partnerships, infrastructure-sharing arrangements, organizational restructurings, acquisitions and other integration initiatives intended to accelerate development of our AI capabilities, compute infrastructure and commercial offerings. -10- rmf l rm “ ” “ ” l ’ t’ “ l tf f iv cy ity , t t , , t ti f ty t , ti , ti , cti , lti , ti , I tf ” ’ t’ I for f ll i i I’


 
Management believes these initiatives may create long-term strategic advantages through the combination of engineering talent, compute infrastructure, proprietary data, software capabilities and integrated operational platfouns across the Company's businesses, among others. However, the successful integration of acquired businesses, management teams, employees, strategic partners, technologies and evolving product architectures is inherently complex, costly and time-consuming and may result in operational inefficiencies, delays, disruptions or the failure to realize anticipated synergies or commercial benefits. We have also pursued evolving commercial and technical strategies, including coding and software development (such as through our partnership with Cursor) and monetization of unused compute capacity (such as through our cloud compute services agreements with Anthropic PBC ("Anthropic")), while simultaneously continuing to invest heavily in expanding datacenter and compute capacity for our own internal AI initiatives and products. These efforts may require substantial capital expenditures and management attention and may create operational complexity relating to infrastructure allocation, prioritization of internal versus external compute usage, integration of third-party technologies and partnerships, cybersecurity, data governance and commercialization strategy. We may elect to allocate capital and resources to long-tern initiatives even if alternative uses with more short-teen upside are available. There can be no assurance that these initiatives will achieve their intended operational or financial objectives. The artificial intelligence industry is highly dynamic and rapidly evolving. We face significant uncertainty relating to technological developments, changing customer preferences, evolving regulatory and legal frameworks, increasing public scrutiny, and intense competition for engineering talent, compute capacity, infrastructure, customers and capital. Some customers for compute services may not be cash flow positive and rely on external capital to fund their contractual obligations to us. In addition, the consumer AI market is characterized by rapid model iteration, frequent new entrants and intense competition for user attention; as a result, download and other usage metrics for any individual AI application, including Grok, can fluctuate significantly (including periods of decreased Grok app downloads and user activity) in response to competitor model releases, product update cycles, and broader shifts in user behavior. As a result of these market dynamics, we may need to modify our AI strategy, organizational structure, infrastructure deployment and capital allocation decisions in response to technological change, competitive pressures, regulatory developments or commercial adoption trends. Initiatives that management believes are strategically beneficial over the long tem' may nevertheless experience near-teen operational disruptions, integration inefficiencies, product delays, technical setbacks, leadership turnover, employee attrition, infrastructure constraints, increased costs or uneven customer adoption during periods of transition or rapid scaling. Management believes that our recent organizational restructuring efforts, infrastructure investments and strategic collaborations position the AI segment favorably for long-tern growth and are consistent with the maturation process of rapidly scaling AI platfouns and optimization of acquired companies. However, there can be no assurance that we will successfully integrate acquired businesses and technologies, retain key personnel, execute our AI strategy within anticipated timeframes, achieve meaningful commercial adoption, generate anticipated revenues or returns on investment, or compete effectively in a rapidly evolving and increasingly competitive and consolidated AI market. If we are unable to successfully execute our AI strategy, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially adversely affected. 1.3.4 Our Al segment is capital intensive, has incurred significant operating losses, and operates in a nascent and rapidly evolving market in which the potential of AI remains uncertain. AI is a nascent and rapidly evolving technology, and although we believe AI holds significant promise for consumers and enterprises, its long-teen impact will depend on the degree to which AI products and services prove to be broadly useful in real-world applications. The demand for AI solutions may not develop or be sustained at the levels we anticipate, or at all. While industry interest in AI has grown substantially, the commercial value proposition of frontier AI models remains largely unproven, and long-teen market acceptance of our AI products and services is uncertain. Developing, training, and providing inference for frontier AI models requires substantial and growing capital expenditures, including investments in specialized computing hardware, data center infrastructure, energy procurement, and technical personnel, and we expect these costs to continue to increase for the foreseeable future. In addition, we plan to allocate substantial capital to build our AI compute infrastructure, and we expect a multi-year investment horizon before these deployments translate into sustained positive AI Segment Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below). Our AI segment has incurred significant operating losses since inception, and we may not achieve profitability in this segment, or, if achieved, sustain it, and the returns on our AI investments may be inadequate to justify the capital deployed. Furtheunore, the continued improvement of AI model capabilities has historically depended in part on scaling laws, the empirical observation that model perfounance improves with increased compute, data, and model size, but there is uncertainty as to how long these -11- rm ’ “ i ” rm rm rm rm rm rm I i i i rm rm rm rm


 
scaling relationships will continue to hold. As a result of these factors, our AI segment may not achieve the growth or returns we expect, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.4 Risks Related to Legal Matters and Regulation 1.4.1 Our Al products and X platform are subject to complex and evolving U.S. and foreign laws and regulations regarding privacy, cybersecurity, data use, data combination, data protection, content, AI, competition, youth protection, safety, consumer protection and notification, advertising, e-commerce, sanctions, export controls, and other matters. Many of these laws and regulations are subject to change and uncertain interpretation, and we could be required to make changes to our products and business practices, and be exposed to monetary penalties, increased cost of operations, declines in user growth or engagement, or loss of customers, or other harm to our AI products and X platform. Our AI products and X platform are subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the United States and abroad, including privacy, cybersecurity, data use, data combination, data protection and personal information, the provision of our services to younger users, biometrics, encryption, rights of publicity and related concepts, content, integrity, intellectual property, advertising, marketing, distribution, data security, data retention and deletion, data localization and storage, data disclosure, AI and machine learning, electronic contracts and other communications, competition, protection of minors, consumer protection, sanctions, export controls, and notification, civil rights, accessibility, product liability, e-commerce, taxation and online payment services, as well as contractual requirements imposed by app stores, payment processors, and other partners. The introduction of new products or services, expansion of our activities in certain jurisdictions, or other actions that we may take may subject us to additional laws, regulations, or other government scrutiny and, in some cases, such laws, regulations, or government scrutiny may limit or delay our ability to introduce new products or services or expand our activities in certain jurisdictions. Particularly, our leadership position in various markets, especially in orbital launch services,' could subject us to heightened regulatory scrutiny under competition laws. In addition, these U.S. and foreign laws and regulations may impose different obligations from each other. As a result of these laws, regulations, and requirements, we are exposed to the risk of significant fines and penalties or other adverse consequences, such as changes to our products, services, or business practices. Our social media and AI-related activities expose us to a variety of risks related to harrrrfui, misleading or illegal content, accuracy, misinformation and deepfakes, bias, discrimination, toxicity, sycophancy, AI deception, consumer protection and notification, products liability, intellectual property infringement or misappropriation, defamation, data privacy, cybersecurity, and sanctions and export controls. Social media and AI are the subject of increasing legislative and regulatory activity by various governmental and regulatory agencies in jurisdictions around the world, which are applying, or are considering applying, platform moderation, intellectual property, product liability, data privacy, age restrictions, data disclosure, cybersecurity, export controls, consumer protection, or other existing laws and regulations or new general legal frameworks to AI (such as the EU's AI Act, California's Frontier Artificial Intelligence Act and New York's Responsible AI Safety and Education Act). In the United States, an increasing amount of legislative and regulatory activity regarding AI is taking place at the state level. Various other jurisdictions have enacted or are considering enacting regulations focused on AI. Restrictions under such laws or regulations, if implemented, could increase the costs and burdens to our AI segment and its customers, delay or halt deployment of new systems using our AI segment's products, require us to modify, restrict, or discontinue certain features (including less constrained modes), and reduce the number of new entrants and customers, negatively impacting our AI segment's business and financial results. If we do not adequately address concerns and regulations relating to the responsible use of AI, public confidence in AI could be undermined, adoption of our AI products and services could slow, and we may suffer reputational or financial harm. Certain of our AI products, including Grok, offer features or modes designed to generate more candid, direct, or less reserved or irreverent outputs, such as "Spicy" Imagine Mode and "Unhinged" Voice Mode. These features are intended to provide users with greater flexibility and control in how they use our tools. Because these modes may be more irreverent and harsher than our standard offerings, they present heightened risks, including reputational harm, the generation of potentially explicit content and misinformation or deceptive outputs, potential nonconsensual or exploitative imagery, intellectual property infringement, or content that could be viewed as exploitative, harmful, harassing, abusive, or discriminatory. The availability of such features may also increase the risk of regulatory scrutiny, enforcement actions, litigation, or claims of harm, as well as reputational damage, 1 Source: McDowell, Satellite Statistics. -12- I i fo i iv c it t t f t t cti lti l t 1 m l ’ i ’ ’ t’ t’ “ ” “ ” 1


 
user or advertiser backlash, or limitations on our ability to distribute or monetize our products in certain jurisdictions or through certain partners. In addition, various regulatory authorities and agencies around the world are actively investigating and making inquiries relating to social media or the use of AI concerning a variety of matters, including investigations and inquiries relating to harmful or illegal content, recommendations, advertising, and consumer protection and notification, which have resulted in, and may in the future result in additional or further investigations and proceedings being brought against us. Certain features that enable more user-directed or less constrained outputs may increase the risk of regulatory scrutiny. For example, are subject to investigations and inquiries from regulators and law enforcement authorities in the United States and internationally concerning allegations that our AI products were used to create nonconsensual explicit images or content representing children in sexualized contexts, and similar matters. We are subject to ongoing litigation, including putative class action lawsuits, relating to such allegations, and we may be subject to additional litigation in the future concerning these types of allegations. These regulatory inquiries, including those related to misuse of our AI products, such as Grok, and those related to the X platfolin, could expose us to additional investigations, proceedings, and litigation, regulatory sanctions (including loss of access to certain markets, which has occurred in the past), liability and adverse publicity. For example, in February 2026, the Irish Data Protection Commission, our AI segment's privacy regulator in Europe, launched a large-scale inquiry to deteunine whether our AI segment has complied with its obligations under the GDPR. This inquiry involves the processing of personal data of European Union data subjects, including children, using generative AI functionality associated with the Grok model within the X platfoun. In the United States, the Federal Trade Commission has undertaken an inquiry into the chatbots of our AI segment and other major technology companies to understand how these companies have evaluated the safety of their chatbots when acting as companions to children and teens. Regulatory requirements applicable to online platfouns and content moderation, and to AI systems, could require us to implement costly compliance measures, restrict certain features or jurisdictions, or expose us to significant fines, liability, penalties, or operational constraints. We are also subject to developer agreements and guidelines imposed by third-party app stores, such as the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Failure to comply with these agreements and guidelines, including those relating to content, could result in the suspension or removal of our mobile applications from such app stores. Any such suspension or removal could materially limit our ability to distribute our mobile applications, and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Authorities around the world have adopted or are considering adopting a number of legislative and regulatory proposals concerning data protection and privacy. Additionally, the increasing adoption of AI technologies, which often rely on the collection of large amounts of data and use of such data to train, fine-tune or otherwise develop AI models, has led data protection authorities around the world to consider and adopt new and evolving interpretations of data protection laws, imposing specific obligations with respect to the processing of personal data, including required notices, consents and opt-outs. Adverse legal rulings, legislation or regulations related to such data privacy matters may result in fines and orders requiring that we change our practices, which could have an adverse effect on how we provide services. These compliance obligations could also cause us to incur substantial costs or haun the quality and operations of our products and services in ways that haun our business. Further, we are subject to evolving laws and regulations that dictate whether, how, and under what circumstances we can transfer, receive or otherwise process personal data. The validity of various data transfer mechanisms we currently rely upon remains subject to legal, regulatory and political developments globally, which may require us to adapt our existing arrangements. Evolving data protection laws and regulations such as the GDPR and ePrivacy Directive, and regulatory actions affecting our AI segment may restrict or adversely affect the X platfoun's advertising services, Grok's development and training, or the ability to offer certain products and services in certain jurisdictions. We are also subject to tax laws, regulations, and policies of the U.S. federal, state, and local governments and of comparable taxing authorities in foreign jurisdictions where we conduct business. Changes in tax laws or in their interpretation or enforcement could result in fluctuations in our effective tax rate, exposure to new or additional tax liabilities, or adversely affect our after-tax profitability or financial position. These U.S. federal and state, EU, and other international laws and regulations, which in some cases can be enforced by private parties in addition to government entities, are constantly evolving and can be subject to significant change. As a result, the application, interpretation, and enforcement of these laws and regulations are often uncertain, particularly in the new and rapidly evolving industry in which we operate, and may be interpreted and applied inconsistently from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and inconsistently with our current policies and practices. For example, regulatory or legislative actions or litigation concerning the manner in which we display content to our users, moderate content, provide our services to younger users, or are able to use data in various ways, including for advertising, have in -13- rm t’ rm rm rm rm rm rm’ ’


 
the past and could in the future adversely affect user growth and engagement, affect the manner in which we provide our services, or adversely affect our financial results, including by imposing significant fines that increasingly may be calculated based on global revenue. For example, the UK's Online Safety Act 2023 and Australia's Online Safety Amendment (Social Media Minimum Age) Act 2024 impose risk mitigation and age- related requirements on certain online platfolins. These laws and regulations, as well as any associated claims, inquiries, or investigations or any government actions, have led to, and may in the future lead to, unfavorable outcomes including increased compliance costs, changes to our products, loss of revenue, delays or impediments in the development of new products, negative publicity and reputational haun, increased operating costs, diversion of management time and attention, and remedies that haun our business, including fines, damages, or orders that we modify or cease existing business practices. In addition, our AI products and the X platfolin have historically been, and may continue to be, subject to claims and investigations relating to misinfounation and deepfakes, defamation, intellectual property infringement or misappropriation, data privacy, cybersecurity, employment matters, advertising practices, and user hauns; defending such matters could be costly and divert management attention. These laws and regulations continuously evolve over time, and we may not be able to anticipate their interpretation, implementation or enforcement. If we fail to comply with new or changed laws or regulations, we might be subject to fines, penalties and other adverse consequences, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.4.2 From time to time, we are involved in litigation, investigations, and other regulatory proceedings which could be costly, time-consuming, and divert management attention, materially and adversely affecting our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. From time to time, we have been and may in the future become involved in various legal proceedings relating to a variety of matters, including intellectual property, commercial, regulatory, product liability, employment, personal injury, class action, employee or contractor health and safety, environmental, whistleblower, securities and other litigation and claims, and governmental and other regulatory investigations and proceedings, including tax examinations. Additionally, our share price may be volatile and, in the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities litigation, including class action litigation. Such matters could be costly, time-consuming, and divert management's attention from executing our strategic initiatives and operating our business. The industries in which we operate have historically experienced significant litigation and regulatory scrutiny, and with our public profile, expanding operations and the novel nature of some of our offerings, including our AI solutions, we may face an increased risk of such actions. Litigation and regulatory proceedings are inherently unpredictable. Any adverse judgments, settlements, or regulatory penalties could result in substantial financial costs, reputational harm, and operational disruptions. Certain of our hardware products are new and relatively unproven. If a product defect were to arise, especially one leading to product liability claims, we would be exposed to warranty and damage claims, which could haiin our reputation and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. Even if we prevail in these matters, the defense and resolution of litigation and regulatory proceedings may require significant resources and management attention. Additionally, the mere initiation of litigation or government inquiries, regardless of the outcome, could negatively impact investor confidence and our stock price. As we continue to innovate and pursue new commercial and government contracts, expand our product offerings, and enter new markets, the likelihood of facing legal and regulatory challenges may increase, further exposing us to these risks. The occurrence of any of these risks could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.4.3 The global nature of our business poses risks with respect to unstable, malicious or arbitrary legal regimes and authorities. We, particularly through Starlink, maintain global operations. As a result, we may face risks that our operations will be subject to unstable, capricious, or malicious legal regimes and authorities. The increasing militarization of space and the potential development of space-based warfare capabilities may expose our assets and operations to heightened geopolitical and security risks, including the risk that foreign governments or other actors could target our satellites or related infrastructure. Certain foreign governments have publicly discussed the potential use of anti-satellite weapons against the Starlink constellation. These and other actions by foreign governments, whether through military, regulatory or other means, may adversely affect our operations and assets. Even if we attempt to comply with known local laws, our assets (both physical, intangible and financial) may be subject to seizure or other expropriation. We may be unable to maintain operations in any jurisdiction, and, if our assets or properties are subject to seizure or other expropriation, we may be unable to recover our assets or properties. Any such legal or other governmental action could have an adverse effect on us. For example, in August -14- ’ i ’ rm rm rm rm rm rm fi f t ’ rm iti


 
2024, Starlink received an order from Brazil's Supreme Court that froze Starlink's Brazilian financial assets and prevented Starlink from conducting financial transactions in Brazil (the "Brazil Asset Seizure"). The action taken by the Brazilian Supreme Court arose out of purported violations of Brazilian law by X, which at the time was not owned by us and was only affiliated with Mr. Musk. It is possible that we may be subject to actions like the Brazil Asset Seizure in the future (whether in Brazil or another country) and, regardless of whether any such action is consistent with local and international law, we may never recover assets seized in any similar action. Additionally, actions that we take to minimize the impact of actions such as the Brazil Asset Seizure to our customers, for example, by continuing to provide service without charge or otherwise altering payment processes and methods to permit customers to maintain service, may have a material impact on our financial performance. As evidenced by the Brazil Asset Seizure, we may be subject to adverse actions from governmental actors on the basis of assumptions, facts or events that are not directly related to our operations and instead relate to the actions of our directors, officers, or shareholders or operations of businesses that are affiliated with them. 1.4.4 Environmental laws, regulations, litigation, liabilities and proceedings may adversely affect our operations, including our launch operations, manufacturing activities, fuel storage and handling operations, launch facilities and ground infrastructure, and data center operations and expansion plans. Our operations, including our launch operations, manufacturing activities, fuel storage and handling operations, launch facilities and ground infrastructure, and data center operations and expansion plans are subject to a variety of state and federal environmental laws and regulations governing matters such as air emissions, wastewater discharges and the discharge, treatment, storage, disposal and remediation of hazardous substances and wastes, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act and permitting requirements of federal, state and local environmental authorities. Liability under these laws imposes strict liability for environmental contamination or remediation costs. Changing regulatory requirements for permits and approvals relating to operational infrastructure, including energy generation assets (e.g., renewables, generators or grid connections), manufacturing facilities, launch facilities, fuel storage and handling facilities, and data centers may cause delays, higher costs or denials, and a failure to comply with these requirements may result in fines, shutdowns or competitive harm. In addition, growing scrutiny of data centers' overall ecological footprint could lead to community opposition, fines or mandates for changing existing practices. We are or may become subject to environmental lawsuits and proceedings, and various parties have threatened or brought lawsuits that allege we are unlawfully operating natural gas-fired turbines without required permits at facilities in Southaven, Mississippi. While we have obtained such permits, the outcome of these legal actions is uncertain. Injunctive relief or the rescission of issued permits would prevent our ability to utilize power generation sources that are required for the operation of these data centers and would adversely affect our AI business. We cannot predict with certainty how future legislative or regulatory developments will affect our business, but compliance with new or modified environmental requirements could require us to incur significant unanticipated expenditures. In addition, our launch facilities and related operations are subject to environmental permitting, land use, wetlands, coastal management and other environmental review requirements, such as the National Environmental Policy Act or related federal and state laws, that may give rise to litigation, regulatory enforcement actions or permitting disputes. Environmental groups, regulatory authorities or other stakeholders may challenge our launch activities, launch cadence, construction or expansion of facilities, fuel storage or handling practices, or other operational activities under federal, state or local environmental laws. Such actions may seek injunctive relief, civil penalties or additional environmental review and mitigation measures, any of which could delay launches, restrict operations, or increase compliance costs, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.4.5 We may face substantial potential liability and operational disruptions if we violate the intellectual property rights or other rights of third parties, and if we fail to adequately protect, maintain, defend or enforce our intellectual property and other similar rights, we could lose an important competitive advantage, in each case which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. Our success and ability to compete also depends in part on our ability to operate without infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating the intellectual property rights of third parties. Companies in the AI and technology industries own large numbers of patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets, and frequently enter into litigation based on allegations of infringement, misappropriation, or other violations of intellectual property or other rights, including in novel areas such as those relating to AI training and AI outputs. Plaintiffs have in the past and may in the future file infringement or other litigation or administrative or adversarial actions -15- ’ ’ “ ” f facili ’ f t ti f t fi f t s


 
relating to the training or development of our AI models. The operations of our business may infringe or violate the rights of third parties, and we may be unaware of the intellectual property rights that others may claim cover some or all of our products or services. Moreover, we may not have the freedom to operate unimpeded by the patent or other rights of others. Third parties may have dominating, blocking or other patents or other rights relevant to our technology, of which we are not aware. Intellectual property and related laws are constantly evolving, can be highly uncertain and involve complex legal and factual questions for which important principles remain unresolved. For example, in the United States and in many foreign jurisdictions, policies regarding the breadth of claims allowed in patents and scope of protections for content can be inconsistent. We cannot predict future changes in the interpretation of patent, intellectual property and other related laws or changes to patent, intellectual property and other related laws that might be enacted into law by U.S. and foreign legislative bodies. We rely on statutory safe harbors, including those set forth in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act in the United States and the Digital Services Act ("DSA") in the EU, to protect against liability for various activities, including linking, caching, ranking, recommending and hosting. Legislation or court rulings affecting these safe harbors may haun us and may impose significant operational challenges. There are legislative proposals and pending litigation in the United States, EU, and around the world that could diminish or eliminate safe harbor protection for websites and online platfolins. If we violate, or are alleged to have violated, the intellectual property rights of third parties, including patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, or other intellectual property rights and related rights, we may be subject to costly and time-consuming litigation, substantial financial penalties, and reputational haiin, any of which could materially disrupt our operations, product development and strategic initiatives. As we continue to develop new or update existing technologies, products, and services, there is a risk that third parties may allege that our operations or offerings infringe upon their intellectual property rights. For example, we are currently a defendant in litigation alleging copyright infringement relating to the claimed use of copyrighted works to train our AI models. Other plaintiffs may file infringement or other litigation relating to the training or development of our AI models. In addition, we are currently subject to, and in the future may be subject to claims from various "non-practicing entities" or other companies that own patents and other intellectual property rights that often attempt to aggressively assert their rights in order to extract value from technology companies by threatening costly litigation or that have minimal operations or relevant product revenue and against whom our patents may provide little or no deterrence or protection. We are and may in the future be subject to additional copyright litigation or other litigation, including litigation relating to allegations that we have trained or developed our AI models on copyrighted works in a manner that infringes on copyrights, or in a manner that otherwise violates the intellectual property or other rights of third parties, or that our models produce outputs in a manner that infringes on copyrights or other intellectual property or other rights. Moreover, the impact of AI on intellectual property ownership and licensing rights, including copyrights, has not been fully addressed by U.S. or international courts or other federal, state or international laws or regulations (or by courts, laws or regulations in foreign jurisdictions), and our use of AI models may reduce our ability to protect our own intellectual property. In addition, founer employers of our current, former, or future employees may assert claims that such employees have improperly disclosed to us confidential or proprietary infounation of these former employers. Any such claims or allegations, whether or not they have merit, could result in costly litigation, substantial damages, injunctions against the use of certain technologies, or the need to obtain licenses on unfavorable teens. In addition, certain of our contracts with customers, suppliers, and partners contain indemnification provisions that could require us to defend against infringement or other claims and pay damages or settlements, thereby increasing our financial exposure. The outcome of intellectual property litigation is inherently uncertain, and adverse judgments could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. If we are unable to obtain necessary licenses, non-infringing substitute technologies, or otherwise mitigate these risks, we may be forced to discontinue certain products or services, delay or curtail research and development activities, or limit our expansion into new markets. Additionally, failure to adequately protect, maintain, defend, or enforce our intellectual property — including patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and proprietary technologies — may lead to loss of competitive advantage, weakened market position, and financial haun from unauthorized use or infringement. We rely and expect to continue to rely upon a combination of patents, trademarks, trade secrets, copyrights, confidentiality procedures, contractual commitments and other legal rights to establish and protect our intellectual property. However, the steps we take to protect our intellectual property and other rights may be inadequate due to various circumstances. We may be unable or choose not to pursue or maintain certain types of intellectual property protection or registration for our intellectual property in the United States or foreign jurisdictions, and the measures we do take may not prevent our competitors or other third parties from independently developing -16- “ ” rm rm rm “ ” rm rm rm – – rm


 
products, services, and technology similar to or duplicative of our products and services. We will not be able to protect our intellectual property if we are unable to enforce our rights or if we do not detect unauthorized use of our intellectual property. In addition, our patents or other intellectual property rights may be challenged, invalidated, circumvented or rendered unenforceable, and pending and future trademark and patent applications may not be approved. While it is our policy to enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees, contractors and other third parties to limit and control access to and disclosure of our trade secrets, intellectual property and confidential information, we may fail to enter into such agreements with all relevant entities and any such agreements may be breached, or this intellectual property may otherwise be disclosed or become known to our competitors, including through hacking, theft, or other misappropriation, including by employees, which could cause us to lose any competitive advantage resulting from these trade secrets, intellectual property and proprietary information. Accordingly, the steps we have taken to protect our intellectual property may not be adequate to prevent infringement of our rights or misappropriation of our technology, trade secrets or know-how. Additionally, to protect our intellectual property rights, we may be required to spend significant resources to monitor, defend, enforce and protect these rights. Monitoring unauthorized uses of our intellectual property is difficult and costly. We may not be able to detect unauthorized use of, or take appropriate steps to enforce, our intellectual property rights. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights and to protect our trade secrets, and any such litigation may be costly and time consuming, result in the diversion of time and attention of our management team, and may not be successful or could result in the impairment or loss of portions of our intellectual property. Furthermore, our efforts to enforce our intellectual property rights may be met with defenses, counterclaims and countersuits attacking the validity and enforceability of our intellectual property rights. Despite our efforts, we may not be able to prevent unauthorized use, copy, reverse engineering, misappropriation of our technology or intellectual property rights to create technology that compete with ours, or independent development of similar technologies. Insufficient protection could force us into costly and uncertain litigation or enforcement actions, allowing competitors to launch rival products and eroding our revenue and profitability, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.4.6 Our ability to continue and expand launch and satellite operations depends upon our ability to obtain new and leverage existing U.S. export control and sanctions authorizations, and any significant changes to the geopolitical landscape or U.S. government regulatory approach to licensing could materially and adversely impact our international business operations by compromising existing licenses or limiting our ability to engage in commercial dealings in or involving geopolitically sensitive countries. The launch and satellite operations are subject to stringent export control and economic and trade sanctions laws, including the U.S. International Traffic in Arms Regulations ("ITAR"), the Export Administration Regulations, and sanctions administered and enforced by the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC"). Under U.S. export control laws, we are required to obtain export authorizations from the Departments of Commerce or State to export or share any controlled goods, technology, or software with foreign persons, including foreign person employees, or to foreign destinations. The availability of such authorizations may be impacted by significant changes to the geopolitical landscape. The U.S. government may revise export control regulations, restrict exports to new or additional locations, or otherwise change its approach to licensing in ways that, while outside of our control, materially impact our international supply chain, existing export licenses, and business operations. For example, under the ITAR, we are required to determine the proper licensing jurisdiction and classification of products, software and technology; and obtain licenses or other forms of U.S. government authorizations to engage in certain activities related to and that support our business operations. The authorization requirements include the need to get permission to release controlled technology to foreign person employees and other foreign persons. In addition, we are required to obtain OFAC authorization in certain situations, including to provide connectivity services or engage in other business operations in certain global markets that may be subject to economic sanctions or trade embargoes. While we have been successful in obtaining such authorizations in the past, these authorizations or licenses may be unavailable in the future. In addition, significant changes to the geopolitical landscape, such as the outbreak of armed conflict, could result in the imposition of new or expanded economic or trade sanctions that may impact or prevent our ability to provide services or otherwise operate in certain markets. Failures by us to comply with import, export control, or sanctions laws and regulations could result in civil or criminal penalties, fines, investigations, more onerous compliance requirements, loss of export privileges, debarment from government contracts, or limitations on our ability to enter into contracts with the U.S. government. Other regulators, such as the EU or UK, may also impose restrictions on our ability to operate in geopolitically sensitive countries or territories. Any loss or restriction of required export control or sanctions -17- i “ ” t’ “ ”


 
authorizations, or any failure to comply with applicable laws, could result in penalties, loss of contracts, or restrictions on our operations, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.4.7 Our use of open source technology could impose limitations on our ability to commercialize our space- based internet and mobile phone services, AI products, and X platform, or otherwise negatively affect our business. We use open source technology in some of our software, including in our Starlink products and services, and in our AI segment's and X platform's software and products, and we expect to continue to use open source technology in the future. Open source technology is licensed by its authors or other third parties under open source licenses, which in some instances may subject us to certain unfavorable conditions. For example, certain open source licenses may give rise to requirements to disclose or license our proprietary source code or make available any derivative works or modifications of the open source code on unfavorable teens or at no cost. Although we monitor and have implemented policies relating to our use of open source technology to avoid subjecting our products and services to conditions we do not intend, we may be unsuccessful in such efforts and we may face allegations from others alleging ownership of, or seeking to enforce the teens of, an open source license, including by demanding release of the open source software, derivative works or modifications, or our proprietary source code that was developed using such technology, or demanding access to our software free of charge or on other unfavorable terns. These allegations could also result in litigation. Additionally, our AI products are trained on data sets that may include open source software, and it is possible that certain outputs of our AI products may be subject to open source license restrictions or obligations. The teens of many open source licenses are ambiguous and have not been interpreted by United States or foreign courts. There is a risk that these licenses could be construed in a way that could impose unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our ability to commercialize our AI segment's products. In such an event, we may be required to seek licenses from third parties to continue commercially offering our AI segment's products, to make our proprietary code generally available in source code foul', to re-engineer our AI segment's products or to discontinue the sale of our AI segment's products or such other products if re-engineering could not be accomplished on a timely basis. In addition, the use of open source technology may entail greater technical and legal risks than those associated with the use of third-party commercial software as open source licensors generally do not provide support, warranties, controls on origin of the software, indemnification or other contractual protections regarding infringement claims or the quality of the code, including the existence of security vulnerabilities. Many of the risks associated with usage of open source technology, such as the lack of warranties or assurance of title, cannot be eliminated and could, if not properly addressed, negatively affect our business. To the extent that our technologies and other business operations depend upon the successful and secure operation of the open source technology we use, any undetected errors or defects in this open source software could prevent the deployment or impair the functionality of our software, delay the introduction of new technological capabilities, result in a failure of our technologies, and injure our brand and reputation. For example, undetected errors or defects in open source software could render it vulnerable to breaches or security attacks and make our AI segment's products more vulnerable to data breaches or security attacks. Any of the foregoing could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.4.8 Payment, banking, and other financial service-related activities may subject us to additional regulatory requirements, regulatory actions, and other risks that could be costly and difficult to comply with or that could harm our business. We plan to publicly launch the Money product on the X platform (the "Money Product"), which will offer payment, banking and other financial services functionalities, including enabling our users to purchase tangible, virtual, and digital goods from merchants and send money to other users, among other activities. These activities will subject us to a variety of laws and regulations in the United States, Europe, and elsewhere globally, including those governing anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing, money transmission, stored value, gift cards and other prepaid access instruments, electronic funds transfer, virtual currency, consumer protection, charitable fundraising, global and local economic sanctions, and import and export restrictions. In addition, we could become subject to new consumer protection laws and regulations that may be adopted or amended, including those related to payment, banking, and other financial services activities as well as sharing, collection, and use of payment, banking, and other financial services-related data. Depending on how the Money Product evolves, we may also be subject to other laws and regulations including those governing gambling, cryptocurrencies, brokerage, banking, credit, and lending. In some jurisdictions, the application or interpretation of these laws and regulations is not clear. We have received certain payments licenses in the United States and other jurisdictions for our anticipated regulated payments-related products and activities. These licenses increase -18- l t ti t’ ’ rm rm m rm t’ t’ rm t’ t’ t’ f “ ”


 
flexibility in how our use of payments may evolve, help mitigate regulatory uncertainty, and will generally require us to demonstrate compliance with many domestic and foreign laws in relation to our licensed payments products and activities. Our efforts to comply with these laws and regulations may still not guarantee compliance. In the event that we are found to be in violation of any such legal or regulatory requirements, we may be subject to monetary fines or other penalties such as a cease and desist order, or we may be required to make product changes. In addition, we will be subject to a variety of additional risks as a result of payment, banking, and other financial services transactions, including: increased costs and other resources to address errors in transactions or customer disputes; potential fraudulent or otherwise illegal activity by users, developers, employees, or third parties; restrictions on the investment of consumer funds used to transact payments; and additional disclosure and reporting requirements. We plan to publicly launch the Money Product and may in the future undertake additional payment, banking, and other financial services initiatives, which may subject us to many of the foregoing risks and additional licensing requirements. Any failure to comply with applicable legal or regulatory requirements, or any inability to obtain or maintain required licenses, may result in fines, penalties, or restrictions on our operations, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.4.9 Failure to comply with requirements to design, implement, and maintain effective internal controls could materially and adversely affect our business and stock price. As a privately held company, we were not required to evaluate our internal control over financial reporting in a manner that meets the standards of publicly traded companies required by Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act ("Section 404"). As a public company, we will have significant requirements for enhanced financial reporting and internal controls. The process of designing and implementing effective internal controls is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to expend significant resources to maintain a system of internal controls that is adequate to satisfy our reporting obligations as a public company. If we are unable to establish or maintain appropriate internal financial reporting controls and procedures, it could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations on a timely basis, result in material misstatements in our consolidated financial statements, and haun our results of operations. In addition, we will be required, pursuant to Section 404, to furnish a report by management on, among other things, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in the second annual report following the completion of the offering. This assessment will need to include disclosure of any material weaknesses identified by our management in our internal control over financial reporting. The rules governing the standards that must be met for our management to assess our internal control over financial reporting are complex and require significant documentation, testing, and possible remediation. Testing and maintaining internal controls may divert our management's attention from other matters that are important to our business. Additionally, our independent registered public accounting firm will be required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting on an annual basis, beginning with our second annual report. We are currently in the process of updating our control processes and automating certain of our procedures and systems in anticipation of becoming a public company, but our internal controls over financial reporting currently do not meet all of the standards contemplated by Section 404 that we will eventually be required to meet. Because we currently do not have comprehensive documentation of our internal controls and have not yet tested our internal controls in accordance with Section 404, we cannot conclude in accordance with Section 404 that we do not have a material weakness in our internal controls or a combination of significant deficiencies that could result in the conclusion that we have a material weakness in our internal controls. In connection with updating our control processes and the implementation of the necessary procedures and practices related to internal control over financial reporting, we have identified deficiencies and may identify deficiencies in the future that we may not be able to remediate in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404. In addition, we may encounter problems or delays in completing the remediation of any deficiencies identified by our independent registered public accounting firm in connection with the issuance of their attestation report. Our testing, or the subsequent testing (if required) by our independent registered public accounting film, may reveal deficiencies in our internal controls over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses. Any material weaknesses could result in a material misstatement of our annual or quarterly consolidated financial statements or disclosures that may not be prevented or detected. Any such material misstatement or failure to maintain effective internal controls may cause the market price of our Class A common stock to decline. -19- i “ ” rm t’ r


 
1.5 Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure, Ownership of our Class A Common Stock and the Offering 1.5.1 Conflicts of interest could arise in the future between us, on the one hand, and Mr. Musk and entities owned by or affiliated with him, on the other hand, concerning among other things, business transactions, potential competitive activities or other business opportunities. Conflicts of interest could arise in the future between us, on the one hand, and Mr. Musk and entities owned by or affiliated with him, on the other hand, concerning among other things, business transactions, potential competitive business activities or other opportunities. In the nounal course of business, we have engaged in a variety of transactions with some of these companies. In addition, we have previously engaged, are currently engaged, and expect to continue to engage in the future in a number of strategic collaborations with Tesla, including with respect to Macrohard and Terafab. Certain of these projects, including Macrohard and Terafab, are in the very early stages, as a result of which we and Tesla have not finalized a variety of details relating to our collaboration, including, but not limited to, financial tern's, intellectual property rights, and the ultimate teen of our collaboration. Furtheunore, Mr. Musk and other businesses owned by or affiliated with him may now, or in the future, directly or indirectly, compete with us for investment or business opportunities. Mr. Musk or his affiliates may become aware, from time to time, of certain business opportunities (such as acquisition opportunities or technological developments) and may direct such opportunities to other businesses in which they have invested, in which case we may not become aware of or otherwise have the ability to pursue such opportunity. In addition, Mr. Musk and his affiliates may dispose of their interests in other companies or other assets in the future, without any obligation to offer us the opportunity to purchase any of those interests or assets. Under our charter, Mr. Musk and his affiliates are not restricted from owning assets or engaging in businesses that compete directly or indirectly with us and will not have any duty to refrain from engaging, directly or indirectly, in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as us, including those business activities or lines of business deemed to be competing with us, or doing business with any of our customers or vendors. Moreover, we have in the past entered into, and may in the future enter into, transactions with entities affiliated with Mr. Musk. We may enter into such transactions in lieu of pursuing other opportunities that some other shareholders may prefer or that may prove to be more accretive than the opportunities we elect to pursue. In any of these matters, the interests of Mr. Musk and entities owned by or affiliated with him may differ or conflict with the interests of our other shareholders. Any actual or perceived conflicts of interest with respect to the foregoing could have an adverse impact on the trading price of our Class A common stock. 1.5.2 Certain of our directors and key employees may have conflicts of interest because they are also employees or directors of affiliates of Mr. Musk or other large shareholders. The resolution of these conflicts of interest may not be in our or your best interests. Certain of our directors and key employees may have conflicts of interest because they are also employees or directors of affiliates of Mr. Musk or other large shareholders. Such directors may have interests in, serve on the boards of, or have financial or other relationships with other companies, ventures, or initiatives that are related to or competitive with our business, including but not limited to other space or AI companies, technology ventures, satellite communications businesses, and government or commercial space contracts. These relationships and interests could create actual or perceived conflicts of interest, particularly with respect to the allocation of time, resources, business opportunities, or strategic decisions. In addition, our charter provides that, to the fullest extent peunitted by applicable law, we renounce certain corporate opportunities that may be presented to Mr. Musk and certain of our directors and their respective affiliates, and such persons may have no duty to present such opportunities to us. Any actual or perceived conflicts of interest could haun our reputation, lead to disputes, divert management attention, or result in decisions that are not in the best interests of us or our shareholders, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.5.3 We are highly dependent on the continued services of Mr. Musk, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technical Officer, and other key personnel, and the loss or reduced involvement of one or more of these individuals could adversely affect our ability to execute our business strategy. We are highly dependent on the continued service and perfoli_lance of Mr. Musk, whose leadership, vision, and expertise are critical to the development of our technologies and the execution of our business strategy. Mr. Musk has been, and continues to be, a driving force behind our growth, innovation, and operational success. -20- f t rm m rm rm l rm rm t rm


 
The loss of Mr. Musk, whether due to death, disability, or otherwise, or his inability or unwillingness to continue in his current roles, could significantly disrupt our management structure, adversely affect our ability to execute our strategic plans, and negatively impact our reputation and relationships with customers, partners, and other stakeholders. Our intense, mission-driven, engineering-first culture has been a key driver of our growth and execution, and any erosion of this culture, including as a result of the loss or reduced involvement of Mr. Musk, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. We do not maintain key-person life insurance on Mr. Musk. Further, although Mr. Musk devotes significant time to our businesses and is highly active in our management, he does not devote his full time and attention to our businesses and devotes time and attention to other significant roles (and may in the future serve in additional roles). For instance, Mr. Musk currently serves as "Technoking" (the infolinal corporate title used by Mr. Musk within Tesla and which does not represent a separate executive office, legal function or governance role) and Chief Executive Officer of Tesla and is involved in other emerging technology ventures, including Neuralink and The Boring Company. Mr. Musk has also previously served as Senior Advisor to the President of the United States. Any such loss or reduced involvement in our business could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. The process of identifying and recruiting a successor with the combination of skills and experience possessed by Mr. Musk, as well as the ability to maintain the confidence of the market, could be lengthy and uncertain, and we may be unable to attract or retain a suitable replacement in a timely manner or at all. We, Mr. Musk, and other companies Mr. Musk is affiliated with frequently receive an immense amount of media attention. The actions and statements of Mr. Musk and his affiliated ventures, whether or not directly relating to us, may draw significant public attention and scrutiny to us and could potentially have a positive or negative impact on our business, relationships with customers and regulators, or stock price. In addition to Mr. Musk, we have key personnel who are invaluable to our businesses. We rely upon their knowledge, expertise, and leadership to develop, manufacture, launch, sell, and support our products and services. None of our key employees are bound by an employment agreement for any specific tem' and we may not be able to successfully attract and retain the senior leadership necessary to continue to grow our business. Our compensation arrangements, such as our equity award programs, may not always be successful in attracting new employees and retaining and motivating existing key personnel. Our success depends upon our ability to attract and retain key personnel and any failure to do so could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.5.4 A significant reduction by Mr. Musk or other existing shareholders of their ownership interest in us could adversely affect us. We believe that Mr. Musk's substantial ownership interest in us provides him with an economic incentive to assist us to be successful. Upon the expiration or earlier waiver of the lock-up restrictions on transfers or sales of our securities following the completion of the offering, Mr. Musk will not be subject to any obligation to maintain his ownership interest in us and may elect at any time thereafter to sell all or a substantial portion of or otherwise reduce his ownership interest in us. If Mr. Musk sells all or a substantial portion of his ownership interest in us, he may have less incentive to assist in our success, which could adversely affect our future prospects. Additionally, future resales of our Class A common stock by Mr. Musk or other existing shareholders, or the perception that such sales may occur, could cause the market price of our Class A common stock to decline significantly, regardless of our actual business perfoiinance. In particular, subject to the expiration or waiver of any applicable lock-up period, parties to the Investors' Rights Agreement (as defined below) will have the right, subject to certain exceptions and conditions, to require us to register approximately 9.2 billion shares of Class A common stock (including shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of Class B common stock) under the U.S. Securities Act, and they will have the right to participate in certain future registrations of securities by us. Registration of any of such shares would result in such shares becoming freely tradable without compliance with Rule 144 limitations upon effectiveness of the registration statement. In addition, approximately 12.2 billion shares of Class A common stock (including shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of Class B common stock) will generally be available for resale under Rule 144 starting 90 days after the global offering, subject to lock-up restrictions. 1.5.5 Following the consummation of the offering, we will be a "controlled company" within the meaning of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas listing rules and, as a result, will qualify for and rely on exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements. Because Mr. Musk will beneficially own 849.5 million shares of Class A common stock and 5,569.1 million shares of Class B common stock (including 350.0 million shares of Class B common stock -21- “ ” rm rm ’ rm ’ “ ” f fr


 
underlying options), which represents greater than 50% of the voting power of our common stock with respect to director elections and moreover, holders of our Class B common stock, voting separately as a class, will be entitled to elect 51% of the total number of authorized directors constituting our board (rounded up to the nearest whole number), following the completion of the offering, we will be a controlled company under the listing rules of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas. Under the listing rules of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power with respect to director elections is held by another person or group of persons acting together is a "controlled company" and may elect not to comply with certain Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas corporate governance requirements, including the requirements that: • a majority of such company's board of directors consist of independent directors as defined under the listing rules of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas; • director nominees be selected or recommended for board of directors' selection by a nominating committee composed entirely of independent directors, with a written charter addressing the nominations process as required under the listing rules of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas; • the compensation committee be composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee's purpose and responsibilities; and • annual performance evaluations of the compensation and nominating committee be conducted. Following the completion of the offering, we intend to utilize certain of these exemptions. As a result, we do not expect to have a compensation and nominating committee that is composed entirely of independent directors or that has a committee charter that addresses all Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas requirements applicable to companies that are not controlled companies. Additionally, we may elect to take advantage of certain other exemptions in the future for as long as we remain a "controlled company." If we indeed rely on some or all of these exemptions following the completion of the offering, our Class A shareholders will not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas. Certain market participants and investors may view our reliance on these governance exemptions unfavorably, which could negatively affect investor demand for, and the market price of, our common stock. 1.5.6 Our ability to provide returns to shareholders will depend on appreciation in our share price, as we do not plan to pay dividends for the foreseeable future. The ability of investors to realize a return on their investment will depend largely on the appreciation of the price of our Class A common stock, as we do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock, and we currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to support the growth and operation of our business, including investment in new technologies and commercial opportunities. As a result, investors seeking cash returns from their investment will not receive any dividend income, and the only way to realize a return may be through an increase in the market price of our Class A common stock, which may not occur. The trading price of our Class A common stock may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, including our financial condition and operating results, changes in our business or future prospects, technological innovations, announcements by us or our competitors, changes in the regulatory environment, haun to our brand and reputation, broader market or economic conditions, and the fact that a number of shares of our Class A common stock are expected to be allocated to retail investors in the global offering. Additionally, high retail investor interest in our Class A common stock may occur following the global offering, which may lead to increased volatility of the trading price. Some of these factors are outside of our control, and the trading price of our Class A common stock may not reflect our actual operating perfounance. Accordingly, investors may not be able to realize a gain on their investment and could lose all or part of their investment in our Class A common stock. 1.5. 7 Upon completion of the offering, Mr. Musk will serve as our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Technical Officer, and Chairman of our board and control the election of our directors, and our dual class -22- “ ” ’ ’ tt ’ “ ” i f fores f t rm rm ec


 
structure concentrates voting control with Mr. Musk and other holders of our Class B common stock. This will limit or preclude your ability to influence corporate matters and the election of our directors. Our Class B common stock will have ten votes per share; our Class A common stock will have one vote per share; and, except as summarized here, our Class A common stock will vote together with our Class B common stock on any matter submitted to the shareholders for a vote. Under our charter, holders of our Class B common stock, voting separately as a class, will be entitled to elect 51% of the total number of authorized directors constituting our board (rounded up to the nearest whole number) and will have the ability to remove those directors for as long as there is at least one share of Class B common stock outstanding. As a result, holders of our Class B common stock will have control over the composition of our board and significant influence over the outcome of matters requiring shareholder approval. This concentration of voting power will limit or preclude the ability of holders of our Class A common stock, including purchasers of Class A common stock in the offering, to influence corporate matters and the election of our directors. Upon completion of the offering, Mr. Musk will beneficially own a majority of the outstanding shares of our Class B common stock and a majority of the voting power of the common stock (the Class A common stock and the Class B common stock voting together) and therefore will be able to elect all the members of our board. Mr. Musk, who will serve as our Chief Executive Officer and Chaiiinan of our board under our charter and can only be removed from our board or these positions by the vote of Class B holders, as set forth in our charter, will exert significant influence over our business and affairs, which could limit or preclude the ability of holders of our Class A common stock to influence corporate matters. Class B common stock will continue to have ten votes per share, except that, subject to exceptions for certain inter-family transfers and transfers to certain entities that qualify as "peunitted transferees" (as described elsewhere in this prospectus), transfers by holders of our Class B common stock will generally result in those shares converting to Class A common stock. The conversion of Class B common stock to Class A common stock will have the effect, over time, of increasing the relative voting power of those holders of Class B common stock who retain their shares. If Mr. Musk retains a significant portion of his holdings of Class B common stock for an extended period of time, he could continue to control the election and removal of a majority of our board. However, other persons will also hold shares of Class B common stock. If Mr. Musk were to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of a sufficient number of his shares of Class B common stock such that he no longer holds a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock, another holder or group of holders of Class B common stock could obtain the ability to elect and remove a majority of our board and thereby effectively control the Company. Any such change in control could result in changes to our strategic direction, management, business plans or policies that may not be aligned with the interests of holders of our Class A common stock. In addition, our charter will provide that other than for specified class votes by the Class B common stock or any rights granted to other classes in the future, classes of stock will not be entitled to any separate class votes provided for under the Texas Business Organizations Code (the "TBOC"), including among others (i) the increase or decrease of the aggregate number of authorized shares of a class outstanding, (ii) the exchange, reclassification, or cancellation of all or part of the shares of a class, (iii) a change of shares of a class, with or without par value, into the same or a different number of shares of the same or another class, with or without par value, (iv) the creation of a new class of shares with rights and preferences equal, prior, or superior to the shares of the class and (v) cancellation or other effectuation of the dividends on the shares of the class or series that have accrued but have not been declared. 1.5.8 The TBOC and our charter include provisions that may limit shareholders' ability to bring a cause of action against our directors or officers for certain acts or omissions in their capacity as directors or officers of the Company, including minimum share ownership for derivative proceedings and the presumption of the business judgment rule. The TBOC and our governing documents include certain provisions that may limit our shareholders' ability to bring certain derivative claims against our officers and directors. For example, the TBOC provides that, if a corporation has a class of stock listed on a national securities exchange, the governing documents may provide that the minimum ownership threshold for a shareholder or group of shareholders to institute or maintain a derivative proceeding is up to 3% of the outstanding shares of the corporation. Our bylaws will specify that the required ownership threshold for a shareholder or group of shareholders to institute or maintain a derivative proceeding in the right of the Company will be 3% of the outstanding shares of the Company. Based on an initial public offering price of $135.00 (the expected price for the U.S. Offering), 3% of our outstanding shares has a total dollar value of approximately $53 billion. A similar ownership threshold provision based on this 2025 TBOC -23- rm “ rm ” “ ” rs’ f f j ’


 
provision has already been challenged in court proceedings involving another Texas corporation and, although the federal district court found the provision enforceable in that case, its enforceability or governing documents containing its provisions could be subject to further challenges or interpretation. The TBOC also permits corporations to request a court, at the start of a transaction (including a related party transaction) or inquiry into a derivative claim, to determine the independence and disinterestedness of directors serving on a special committee reviewing the transaction or directors or other individuals on panels reviewing derivative claims. Subsequent challenges to independence or disinterestedness would require new facts. Our bylaws will provide that these TBOC provisions will apply to us. In addition, Section 21.419 of the TBOC sets forth certain presumptions concerning compliance by directors and officers with respect to their duties to a corporation, including the duty of care and duty of loyalty. Specifically, in taking or declining to take any action on any matters of a corporation's business, Section 21.419, which applies to us, provides that a director or officer is presumed to have acted (i) in good faith, (ii) on an informed basis, (iii) in furtherance of the interests of the corporation and (iv) in obedience to the law and the corporation's governing documents. These provisions are described as codifying the "business judgment rule." In order to succeed in a cause of action against a director or officer, the Company or a shareholder pursuing such an action must rebut one or more of the foregoing presumptions and prove with particularity the director or officer's act or omission constituted a breach of duty as a director or officer and that such breach involved fraud, intentional misconduct, an ultra vires act or a knowing violation of law. 1.5.9 Our bylaws will impose minimum stock ownership and solicitation requirements on shareholders seeking to submit proposals for shareholder approval, which could limit the ability of our shareholders to bring matters before a meeting of shareholders. Upon the completion of the offering, we will qualify as a "nationally listed corporation" under Section 21.373 of the TBOC, and our bylaws will provide that the shareholder proposal requirements permitted by that section will apply immediately upon qualifying as a "nationally listed corporation." As a result, except with respect to director nominations and procedural resolutions ancillary to the conduct of a shareholders' meeting, a shareholder or group of shareholders seeking to submit a proposal for approval at a meeting of shareholders will be required to satisfy specified ownership, holding-period and solicitation requirements. Under these provisions, the proposing shareholder or shareholder group must hold an amount of voting shares (determined as of the date of submission of the proposal) equal to at least 3% of our voting shares, must have held that amount continuously for at least six months before the date of the meeting and throughout the entire duration of the meeting, and must solicit holders of shares representing at least 67% of the voting power of shares entitled to vote on the proposal at the shareholder meeting. Based on an initial public offering price of $135.00 per share (the expected price for the U.S. offering), 3% of our voting shares has a total dollar value of approximately $53 billion. For purposes of this paragraph, "voting shares" means shares that entitle the holder of the shares to vote on the proposal. These requirements are more restrictive than the requirements that would otherwise apply absent such a bylaw provision and may make it more difficult, or in some cases impracticable, for shareholders to submit proposals for consideration at a shareholders' meeting. As a result, our shareholders may have fewer opportunities to present proposals for shareholder approval, even on matters they believe are important, which could limit shareholder influence over corporate governance and other matters. Section 21.373 of the TBOC was enacted in 2025 and, while its enforceability has not yet been challenged in court and we do not have any material concerns related to enforceability of Section 21.373 or the related bylaws provision, like many new laws, we expect the enforceability of TBOC Section 21.373 will eventually be challenged. 1.5.10 Our bylaws place restrictions on the forum, venue and procedures for legal actions or proceedings initiated by our shareholders, including certain requirements for mandatory arbitration. These provisions could limit our shareholders' ability to pursue certain claims and/or increase the cost of doing so and could also affect the procedures, rights, and remedies available to our shareholders in such legal actions or proceedings. Our bylaws will contain a section (the "Forum Selection Bylaw") that will provide that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the sole and exclusive forum for the filing, adjudication, and trial of all disputes between (i) one or more shareholders and (ii) the Company or its directors, officers, or controlling persons, or any underwriter of securities issued by the Company (or controlling person thereof) relating to any of the following: (1) any derivative proceeding, meaning a civil dispute brought in the right of the Company; (2) any action based on the governance, governing documents, or internal affairs of the Company; (3) any action based on state or federal securities or trade regulation laws; (4) any action based on the alleged act(s) or omission(s) by a person in its capacity as a shareholder, controlling person, director, officer or other managerial official of the Company; (5) any action based on the alleged breach(es) by one or more -24- i ’ ti ’ “ ” ’ f l “ ” “ ” ’ “ ” ’ fo f l f r ’ “ ”


 
shareholders, controlling persons, directors, officers, or other managerial officials of a duty owed, in his or her capacity as such, to the Company or to any shareholder thereof; (6) an action seeking to hold a shareholder, controlling person, director, officer, or other managerial official of the Company liable for an obligation of the Company, other than on account of a written contract signed by the person to be held liable in a capacity other than as a shareholder or managerial official; and (7) any action arising out of the TBOC, will be the Texas Business Court, Eleventh Division (the "Business Court") (for purposes of this summary, each, an "Internal Dispute"). The selection of the Business Court as the exclusive forum for Internal Disputes may limit a shareholder's ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers, other managerial officials, or other employees, which may discourage lawsuits against us and our directors, officers, other managerial officials, and other employees. Except to the extent that the Company consents in writing, or a court of competent jurisdiction deteunines in a final and unappealable judgment, that an Internal Dispute is not subject to the sole and exclusive venue and forum or jurisdiction of the Business Court or arbitration (as described further below), a shareholder will not be peunitted to litigate an Internal Dispute in federal court or in any state court other than the Business Court, and will not be able to avail itself of any potential advantages or procedural protections of such other forums (subject to the provisions of Section 27 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") discussed below). Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in our shares of capital stock will be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to these provisions. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder, and under Section 29 of the Exchange Act, investors cannot be required to waive compliance with the substantive obligations of the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. Nonetheless, we believe federal case law interpreting the Exchange Act provides that the requirement under Section 27 of exclusive jurisdiction in federal court may be waived under certain circumstances. The Company's position is that the Business Court can exercise jurisdiction over claims arising under the Exchange Act, because Texas law by statutory authority expressly gives the Business Court jurisdiction over such claims. Accordingly, we believe that under our Bylaws a shareholder bringing a claim under the Exchange Act, whether directly or on a derivative basis, must bring such a claim in the Business Court (and will not have available to them federal court). The company's position regarding the law governing the ability to consent to the selection of a state tribunal where there is explicit exclusive federal jurisdiction for certain actions brought under the federal securities laws (including the Exchange Act) is untested, and there is risk that, if an Internal Dispute were filed under the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder in a court other than the Business Court, that court could deny a motion by the Company to transfer the action to the Business Court pursuant to the Forum Selection Bylaw. In such a case, we and/or plaintiffs may incur additional expense and uncertainty of trying a case in a different forum or the forum might be arbitration (as further discussed below). Accordingly, the bylaws provide that to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction (which is a court that possesses personal and subject matter jurisdiction) were to decline, in a final and unappealable judgment, to transfer an Internal Dispute to the Business Court (such Internal Dispute, an "Other Dispute"), such Other Dispute would be exclusively and finally settled by arbitration, pursuant to the Texas Arbitration Act, under the Expedited Procedure Provisions of the Rules of the International Chamber of Commerce ("ICC"), pursuant to Article 30 thereof. To be clear, absent Company consent, a shareholder would not be able to file an arbitration demand pursuant to the Dispute Resolution Clause without first obtaining a final and unappealable judgment declining to transfer that shareholder's Internal Dispute to the Business Court. The governing law of such Other Dispute would be the federal law of the United States or the law of the State of Texas, as applicable to the issues raised in the Other Dispute, including without limitation the pleading and discovery limitations of the Private Securities Litigation Refoun Act. If a court declines to transfer an Internal Dispute to the Business Court, but such court is later held not to have personal or subject matter jurisdiction with respect to such Internal Dispute, the arbitration provision would not be triggered because such action would be required to be dismissed and subsequently brought in a court of competent jurisdiction. Given the unsettled nature of the law in this area, there is some risk that a court that has denied a motion to transfer an Internal Dispute to the Business Court pursuant to the Forum Selection Bylaw would also deny a motion to compel arbitration of such Other Dispute pursuant to the Forum Selection Bylaw. Accordingly, the Forum Selection Bylaw further provides that to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction deteunines in a final and unappealable judgment that such Other Dispute cannot be compelled to arbitration pursuant to the Forum Selection Bylaw, the sole and exclusive forum for the adjudication and trial of such Other Dispute will be the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the "Federal Court"). -25- “ ” “ ” l r’ rm rm “ ” ’ ’ “ ” “ ” l r’ rm rm “ ”


 
Finally, the Forum Selection Bylaw provides that to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and unappealable judgment that the Federal Court lacks jurisdiction over any such Other Dispute, the sole and exclusive forum and venue for such Other Dispute will be the state district courts of Harris County, Texas. Regardless of the forum, venue, or procedures selected for an Internal Dispute or Other Dispute, our bylaws shall require that any Internal Dispute or Other Disputes be brought only as an individual action or derivative proceeding, and, to the fullest extent peunitted by law, shall prohibit shareholders from bringing such an Internal Dispute or Other Dispute as a class action, mass action, or other foul' of collective action or from being consolidated or joined, in whole or in part, consistent with the Arbitration Rules (as defined below). However, the Company, at its sole option, may elect to seek consolidation or joinder of matters as consistent with the Arbitration Rules. In addition, our bylaws will provide that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in shares of stock of the Company shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally waived any right it may have to a trial by jury in any Internal Dispute. This will prevent a shareholder from requesting that a jury decide disputed issues of fact and may discourage lawsuits against us and our directors, officers, other managerial officials, and other employees. These dispute resolution rules that our bylaws will establish for Internal Disputes, as well as the Arbitration Rules (as defined below) to the extent they will apply, are different from the procedural rules that would nounally apply to the litigation of Internal Disputes in state or federal court. They may prevent a shareholder from availing itself of procedural protections that would be available under litigation in state or federal court and may render available or affect adversely the rights and remedies available to shareholders in such proceedings. Particularly in the case of arbitration, including its prohibition on class or collective actions, these dispute resolution rules may also result in greater costs being imposed on shareholders to litigate Internal Disputes, and in some cases involving lower amounts in controversy, the additional costs that may be imposed on shareholders to litigate Internal Disputes could exceed the potential recovery from such litigation. Although we maintain that our bylaws, including the Forum Selection Bylaw (and its selection of the Business Court as the sole and exclusive forum for all actions brought under federal securities laws) accord with the law and are enforceable, it is possible that one or more provisions of our bylaws, including those regarding the exclusive forum for Internal Disputes, mandatory arbitration for Other Disputes, or waiver of the right to proceed on a class, mass, or collective basis, may be found by a court to be inapplicable or unenforceable. In addition, the mandatory arbitration provision in our bylaws could be subject to litigation or regulatory scrutiny, which could result in the provision being enjoined or in additional costs or uncertainty. In such case, we may incur additional costs or delays associated with resolving such actions, including in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.5.11 Prior to the offering, there has been no public market for our Class A common stock. Prior to the offering, there has been no public market for our Class A common stock. Future sales of our Class A common stock in the public market, or the availability of such shares for sale in the public market, could adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock prevailing from time to time. As described below, only a limited number of shares will be available for sale shortly after the offering due to contractual and legal restrictions on resale. Nevertheless, sales of a substantial number of shares of our Class A common stock in the public market after such restrictions lapse, or the perception that those sales may occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our Class A common stock at such time and our ability to raise equity-related capital at a time and price we deem appropriate. 1.6 Risks Related to Our Operations and Industry 1.6.1 Our business strategy depends on successfully designing, developing, and deploying our products and services, as well as related platforms, infrastructure, and other strategic initiatives, at an unprecedented scale, which presents significant execution, cost, and timing risks. Our business plan, and ultimately, the achievement of our mission, is predicated on building, commercializing, and operating products and services, as well as related infrastructure and strategic initiatives at a scale that has not previously been achieved. This objective requires us to integrate complex technologies, develop new processes and infrastructure, and coordinate across multiple suppliers, contractors, regulators, and stakeholders. Because we are attempting to execute at a scale for which there is limited precedent, we face -26- rm rm rm f i t i l t


 
heightened uncertainty with respect to design, engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, and operational performance, which is further heightened by the novel nature of the technologies underlying the products and services we intend to develop. As a result, timelines for developing and deploying our products and services may be longer than we currently anticipate, and we may encounter delays due to, among other things, technical challenges, including those resulting from the nascent state of certain of our products and services, the unavailability or immaturity of key technologies, supply chain constraints, energy shocks, including related price volatility, labor availability, permitting and regulatory approvals, or the need to redesign or reengineer key components. In addition, the costs associated with developing and deploying our products and services and related platforms, infrastructure and strategic initiatives at scale may exceed our current estimates, including due to inflationary pressures, energy prices, unforeseen engineering complexities, the cost of developing or licensing technologies that are not yet commercially available, competitive dynamics, changes in scope, or the need for additional capital expenditures, contingency reserves or working capital. Delays or cost overruns could impact our ability to achieve projected returns, meet contractual commitments, access additional financing on acceptable teens, or maintain investor confidence. Moreover, even if we successfully deploy our growth strategy, including Starship, Terafab, orbital AI, and the creation of the lunar economy, they may not perform as expected at scale, which could result in operational inefficiencies, increased costs, reduced revenues, or declines in our stock price. We may be unable to successfully execute our growth strategy on the anticipated timeline or within our expected cost parameters, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. I.6.2 Our satellites, launch vehicles, and other space-related technologies operate, and in the case of orbital AI compute, will operate, in the harsh and unpredictable environment of space, exposing them to a wide and unique range of space-related risks that could cause them to malfunction or fail, and any such malfunction or failure could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. Operating in space subjects our satellites, launch vehicles, spacecraft, and related systems to extreme and highly variable conditions that can adversely affect performance, reduce useful life, or result in total mission failure. Space is inherently hostile. Hardware must withstand: significant vibration and acoustic loads during launch; wide-ranging thermal cycles; radiation from solar and cosmic sources; micrometeoroids and orbital debris; and other environmental hazards, each of which testing cannot fully replicate. In particular, we have not, and no one else has, previously operated or attempted to operate orbital AI compute, and the conditions of space on such AI infrastructure have not been tested. Once deployed, orbital AI compute infrastructure will not be readily accessible, and as a result, will not be easily repaired or upgraded, such that any component failures could result in peunanent capacity loss, accelerated depreciation, decommissioning or need for replacement of the infrastructure. In addition, space weather events, such as geomagnetic stoups, solar flares, and other forms of radiation activity, have in the past disrupted and could in the future disrupt satellite propulsion, power systems, and communications equipment, potentially leading to reduced perfounance or permanent damage. Although we incorporate certain radiation-hardened components, shielding, and redundancy into our systems, these measures may not be sufficient to prevent material adverse impacts in all scenarios. Failures or perfounance degradation resulting from these risks could delay deployments, reduce available capacity, increase operating costs, require significant capital expenditures to replace affected assets, or interrupt or degrade services provided to customers. Furtheunore, the useful life of our satellites is inherently shorter than that of the infoimation technology systems and infrastructure they host. As a result, we must periodically launch replacement satellites as existing satellites reach the end of their useful lives and are decommissioned, which may truncate the effective lifespan of those underlying infounation technology systems and infrastructure. Any such events could adversely affect our reputation, compliance with applicable laws and regulations, business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.6.3 Interruptions in the operation of critical satellite network, ground station, launch, manufacturing, or spacecraft or data center infrastructure could result in significant downtime, operational delays or loss of service, each of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. Our ability to provide reliable services across our Space, Connectivity, and AI business segments depends on the uninterrupted operation of our critical infrastructure, including but not limited to satellite and -27- rm 1. t f il fail fi f t s rm rm rm rm rm r rm f f t s


 
communications networks, ground stations, launch facilities, and data centers. An interruption or failure affecting any aspect of this infrastructure, whether due to equipment malfunctions, power outages, disruptions in, or unauthorized access to, our computer systems (such as software or hardware failures, or cyberattacks), natural disasters (such as earthquakes, floods, fires, or severe weather events), terrorism, war, sabotage, pandemics, epidemics, or other unforeseen circumstances, could result in significant downtime, operational delays, or complete loss of service. A cyberattack or other hostile act could destroy or disable a significant number of our satellites and, depending on its scale, could trigger a cascading collision event that renders our licensed orbits, and potentially other orbits, unusable for an extended period. Similarly, the use of our satellites to enable communications access in conflict zones may expose us to retaliation from foreign governments and non-state actors. These events may disrupt power, damage facilities, interrupt service despite contingency plans or compromise our ability to deliver services to customers as promised, hinder our ability to meet regulatory or contractual requirements, and erode trust among our customers, partners, regulators and stakeholders. In particular, an interruption or failure affecting our critical infrastructure could result in outages of service to our Starlink Subscribers. Any such outage could erode the trust of existing and potential Starlink Subscribers in our service, which could result in the loss of existing or potential subscribers. Certain of our launch and rocket manufacturing facilities are located in seismically active regions and in low-lying coastal areas, making them susceptible to earthquakes and hurricanes, respectively. Such events could damage our launch infrastructure, ground support equipment, manufacturing facilities, or rockets, potentially halting or delaying launch operations and causing us to incur substantial costs. In addition, the complexity and interdependence of our engineering, manufacturing, assembly and terrestrial, space transportation, and infrastructure systems mean that a disruption in one component can have cascading effects throughout our operations. For example, an outage at a data center or ground station could impact command and control functions, mission planning, or real-time telemetry, while interruptions at launch facilities could cause postponements or cancellations of scheduled launches. Any such interruptions, failures, or disruptions could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.6.4 Manufacturing, testing and launching rockets, satellites, and spacecraft, including our efforts to reuse rockets and spacecraft, involve inherent risks that could result in human injury or death, property damage and environmental damage or other adverse environmental impacts due to accidents or equipment failures. Any such events could result in substantial losses, including reputational harm and legal liability, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. The manufacturing, testing, launching, and recovery of our rockets, satellites, and spacecraft are complex activities that are conducted under challenging conditions and involve a high degree of risk. Our reusable vehicles will reenter Earth's atmosphere and fly over populated land for extended periods, which carries inherent risks to populations in the event of failure, such as structural breakup, loss of control, or debris dispersal. Although we implement extensive safety protocols and operational safeguards designed to protect personnel and the public, these protocols and safeguards may not in all circumstances prevent exposure of our personnel and potentially members of the public to hazards such as explosions, structural failures or debris dispersal. A manufacturing defect, testing anomaly, launch failure, recovery incident, or similar event involving injury to humans, any human fatalities, property damage, or environmental damage or other adverse environmental impacts could result in substantial losses, including reputational harm and legal liability, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.6.5 Although we are focused on the vertical integration of our businesses, we depend on third parties to manufacture and supply certain key components necessary for the provision of our launch, connectivity, and AI services, and any supply shortages or disruptions or failures in their performance could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. We are exposed to disruptions in the supply chain for essential raw materials or components, challenges in the supplier qualification process, or increases in the prices of inputs. Despite our supply chain being largely vertically integrated, our reliance on third-party manufacturers and suppliers for key components introduces risks related to supply chain continuity, quality assurance, and vendor performance. We depend on both domestic and international suppliers for certain specialized materials, components, and services that are essential to the production and operation of our launch vehicles, spacecraft, satellites, user terminals (including Starlink consumer terminals), AI segment and related infrastructure. Any failure or delay by these partners to deliver components in the required quantities, within specifications, or on schedule has in the past and may in the future adversely affect our production schedules, operational reliability, and our ability to meet contractual obligations. In addition, disruptions in the supply chain due to shortages, quality issues, natural disasters, geopolitical events, labor -28- t fail re f f t s ’ fo ti f ti fail fi f t


 
disputes, pandemics, epidemics, tariffs or trade restrictions, criminal activity (including terrorism, sabotage or cyberattacks) or other factors outside our control could result in significant delays, increased costs, or an inability to deliver products and services to customers in a timely and cost-effective manner. The process of qualifying new suppliers or transitioning to alternative vendors can be time-consuming and may not be successful, further increasing our exposure to supply chain interruptions. Furthermore, our limited pool of qualified vendors for certain critical products or services exposes us to increased pricing pressures and quality risks. In particular, certain materials and products that are key inputs in our Space, Connectivity, and AI segments are available from a limited number of suppliers, including sole or limited-source suppliers, and our direct chip suppliers are dependent on a concentrated group of advanced semiconductor fabrication facilities. For additional information regarding supply chain risk relating to our AI processors, please see "1.3.1 Our ability to scale our AI products relies on our terrestrial and future orbital AI compute infrastructure, which depends on the availability of power, water, AI processors, and other critical components, and telecommunications services, and any shortages or disruptions thereof would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects." The inability of these suppliers to deliver necessary components of the products in a timely manner and at prices, quality levels, and volumes acceptable to us, or interruptions in supply of materials or products on which these suppliers rely, could have an adverse effect on our ability to meet customer demands and contractual obligations, execute on our growth strategy, or manage our expenses or timelines as expected, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.6.6 We face intense competition in the markets in which we operate, and while we have historically outperformed certain competitors in our Space and Connectivity segments, we may not continue to do so, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. The markets in which we operate are rapidly evolving and intensely competitive, and we face competition from a range of established and emerging companies, including large, well-capitalized technology companies and aerospace firms, including foreign competitors. Some competitors are investing significant capital to develop and deploy satellite constellations and related infrastructure that compete directly with our offerings, and companies based in China and other jurisdictions may benefit from government support, favorable regulatory environments, or strategic national prioritization. Some of our current and potential competitors, particularly in our AI segment, have greater financial, technical, manufacturing, or other resources than we do, and may devote more resources to the development and commercialization of competing products and services. Competitors may adopt more aggressive pricing, secure more favorable supplier or distribution arrangements, bundle services, form strategic alliances or otherwise take actions that enhance their competitive position in ways that could adversely affect our business. In certain markets, regulatory or geopolitical factors may result in preferential treatment for domestic competitors or otherwise limit our ability to compete effectively. Competition continues to intensify as new technologies are developed and new entrants emerge. While we have historically outperformed certain competitors in aspects of our business, such as our Space and Connectivity segments, we may be unable to maintain this position. This could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.6.7 The development and maintenance of the technologies and infrastructure necessary to support our current and future operations will require significant capital expenditures, and if we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or obtain additional financing on acceptable terms, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects could be materially and adversely affected. Our business requires substantial capital expenditures to design, develop, expand, and maintain our technologies and infrastructure to support our operations. For example, we have incurred significant capital expenditures and expect to increase our capital expenditures substantially in the future in connection with the design, development, and deployment of our satellite constellations, launch vehicles, ground stations, manufacturing facilities, and programs, including Terafab, AI compute infrastructure, data centers, and other supporting infrastructure. These expenditures include, but are not limited to, costs associated with research and development, construction and expansion of production capabilities, acquisition of property and equipment, and ongoing maintenance and upgrades to ensure reliability and competitiveness. In particular, the development, testing, and deployment of Starship in accordance with our anticipated schedule, as well as our pursuit of orbital AI, other space-related services, and lunar and interplanetary missions, will require the investment of significant additional capital resources. In addition, we have made and intend to continue to make substantial capital -29- “ f , , , , f ti f ” f ti fi f t s f t fl fro fi f f t


 
expenditures to support the growth of our AI products, including costs related to obtaining third-party GPUs, manufacturing our own GPUs, and constructing, leasing, maintaining, enhancing, and expanding our data centers. We may choose to increase or accelerate the pace of any of these investments at any time, which could result in periods of reduced profitability or increased losses as we prioritize long-tem' growth over near-term financial performance. Many of the products and services that are important for our growth prospects are novel and untested, and therefore our estimates of capital expenditures may prove to be inaccurate. If we raise additional capital through further issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our shareholders could suffer significant dilution and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences, and privileges superior to those of holders of our Class A common stock. The agreements governing our indebtedness contain various restrictive covenants and any additional debt financing secured by us in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital-raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which could limit our operational flexibility and make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities. Our ability to access the capital markets or secure other sources of financing may be adversely affected by factors beyond our control, including fluctuations in market conditions, changes in investor sentiment, increases in interest rates, or adverse events affecting the broader industry or economy. Any inability to access capital or obtain additional financing on acceptable teens could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.6.8 Our future revenue and operating results depend upon our ability to develop new technologies and respond to changes in customer demands and industry standards in highly competitive markets, and if we are unable to do so, this could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. Our future revenue growth and operating results are highly dependent on our ability to design, develop and successfully commercialize new and innovative technologies, products, and services on a timely and cost- effective basis. The markets in which we operate are characterized by rapid and disruptive technological change, evolving industry standards, the emergence of new and well-funded competitors, frequent new product and service introductions, changing customer demands and regulatory changes. In addition, we may expand into new markets, which may lead to similar or additional challenges that we cannot foresee and may require novel innovations to navigate or overcome. As a result, we may from time to time rapidly adjust, modify or change our strategic priorities, capital allocation, product or service focus or operational initiatives across our business in response to these other changes or new markets. In particular, the AI industry is nascent, highly competitive, capital intensive and rapidly changing. There are a number of companies today that develop or may develop products or services that compete with our AI segment, and new competitors may emerge over time. Some of our current or potential competitors in the AI market are large technology companies that have significant financial, technical and marketing resources, and in some cases greater access to data, and others are smaller specialized companies that possess specialized expertise and may have greater flexibility than we do. We also have a limited number of customers for our AI products when compared to certain of our competitors. Current and potential competitors have established, or may in the future establish, cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase the ability of their AI technologies to address the needs of current and prospective users of our AI products. Furthermore, current or prospective users may decide to develop competing products for particular use cases or to establish strategic relationships with our competitors for such use cases. Current and potential competitors and bad actors, may also attempt to reverse engineer or otherwise replicate our AI technology, including through model extraction or distillation techniques. Increased competition with our AI products could result in price reductions, revenue shortfalls, loss of customers and loss of market share. In our Connectivity segment, including Starlink broadband and Starlink Mobile, we face competition from terrestrial fixed network providers, mobile networks, and other satellite providers, and our services may be less competitive in certain markets, including dense urban areas where terrestrial fiber and wireless networks may offer higher capacity, lower cost, or more consistent performance. In addition, our Starlink Mobile offering operates in a highly competitive and evolving market, and may be affected by the pace of technological development, spectrum availability, and the success of our partnerships with mobile carriers. In addition, the X platfoun faces intense competition from social media, messaging and media companies and traditional media outlets, such as television, radio and print, for advertising budgets. Advertisers generally do not have long-term commitments to the X platfoun and may reduce or discontinue their advertising spending for a variety of reasons outside our control. We are expending resources to improve the X platfoun and improve its attractiveness to users and advertisers. While we have introduced new user interface enhancements, algorithm updates, and other product features, improvements to the X platfolin, introducing new products and services on the X platfoun and other -30- r rm f t f f t s rm rm rm rm rm


 
initiatives may be costly and difficult to implement, and we cannot be sure that they will be positively received by users, content creators, or advertisers, or provide positive returns on our investment. Losing users who migrate to other platforms may negatively impact our potential subscription or advertising revenue. Additionally, if users do not continue to contribute content and otherwise engage with the X platform, we are unable to provide users with valuable and timely content, or if content that is considered to be problematic or offensive is made available on the X platform, the size of the X platform's user base and their engagement may decline, leading to a decline in monetizable usage and the loss of potential subscription revenue from such users, and the X platform may experience brand or reputational harm. A decline in users on the X platform, or the volume or quality of their content on the X platform, could also impact the ongoing development of our AI product, which in part utilizes data and user-generated content from the X platform. We plan to publicly launch the Money Product; however, we are competing against large, established companies with significantly greater resources and market presence than us. If we are unable to anticipate technological trends, respond to technological advancements or changing customer demands, or successfully develop and commercialize new or enhanced offerings, we may be unable to establish or maintain a meaningful market position. Any such event could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.6.9 Many of our initiatives, including those to develop orbital AI compute at scale, manufacture Al chips at scale, establish a lunar economy, develop human augmentation systems, and transport humans and cargo to the Moon and Mars, involve significant technical complexity, unproven technologies, or technologies that do not exist or may require significant advancement, and such initiatives may not achieve commercial viability. Our initiatives to develop orbital AI compute at scale, establish a lunar economy, develop human augmentation systems, and transport humans and cargo to the Moon and Mars are in early stages of conception, design and development and have not yet been proven at commercial scale, or at all, and may ultimately be unsuccessful. In particular, the timeline for these initiatives, and the launch cadence required to achieve them may be difficult or impossible to determine. These efforts require substantial and ongoing investments of financial, technical, and human resources over extended time horizons, including, but not limited to, research and development, testing, infrastructure, regulatory approvals, and mission execution. The technologies, systems, and operational capabilities required for each of these initiatives involve significant technical complexity and are subject to design, engineering, and performance risks, many of which may only become apparent as development and testing progress. Many of these technologies, systems and operational capabilities are novel and untested, and we expect to incur significant capital expenditures over a period of years before our AI products and services and other strategic initiatives, including AI compute infrastructure and in-orbit, lunar, and interplanetary industrialization efforts, become profitable, which may never occur. In addition, in-orbit refueling of Starship is essential to our lunar, Mars, asteroid mining, and other deep space ambitions beyond geostationary Earth orbit. In-orbit refueling is complex, and we have not yet demonstrated or attempted it. We may not be able to develop, commercialize, scale, or successfully implement these or other strategic initiatives on the timelines we currently anticipate, or at all. Furthermore, the viability of orbital AI compute depends in part on the cost advantages of solar energy relative to existing terrestrial energy sources. To the extent that breakthrough developments in terrestrial energy access, such as advances in nuclear energy, significantly reduce energy costs or alleviate infrastructure constraints, the viability of our orbital AI compute infrastructure may be materially diminished. Even if our orbital AI compute infrastructure proves to be commercially viable, a material slowdown in the growth of AI applications and related compute demand could result in existing terrestrial data centers sufficiently meeting such demand, thereby reducing the need for our orbital AI compute infrastructure. As a result, we may be required to devote financial, technical, human or other resources in excess of our current expectations, and these investments may not generate adequate returns, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.6.10 Several of our anticipated market opportunities, including certain AI, orbital, lunar, and interplanetary transportation and industrial activities, are still emerging and evolving or do not currently exist, and such markets may not develop as we expect, or at all. A portion of our anticipated market opportunities is associated with several different industries. Certain of these industries, such as space tourism, human augmentation, and cargo transport to the Moon, are still emerging. Others, including in-orbit manufacturing, passenger transport to the Moon, an established human presence or gateway hub on the Moon, passenger and cargo transport to Mars, energy production on the Moon or Mars, manufacturing capabilities on the Moon or Mars, and asteroid mining do not exist today. Any estimate we make regarding the size or timing of our anticipated market opportunities is inherently uncertain and necessarily involves significant assumptions about future customer demand, adoption, technological development, regulatory conditions and the emergence of a broader commercial market that does not currently exist. While we believe -31- ’ ti I i i t


 
these industries will develop over time, the manner in which they emerge, including the timing of commercialization, the scale and pace of adoption, and the applicable technical, regulatory, geopolitical and economic frameworks may differ materially from our current expectations. If these industries do not develop, develop on slower timelines, at smaller scales, or under different economic or regulatory conditions than we anticipate, this could require us to modify, delay, or abandon certain of our business plans, or cause such plans not to develop at all, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.6.11 We have experienced, and will likely continue to experience, development and manufacturing delays and damage or destruction during pre-launch operations, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. The development, manufacturing, and operation of launch vehicles and satellites are complex and capital- intensive activities that are subject to numerous risks. Our launch vehicles, satellites, and related systems have in the past experienced and may in the future experience delays, damage or destruction during design and manufacturing, including delays in fabrication, assembly, inspection, testing, and component qualification. These issues may arise from engineering challenges, supplier perfounance problems, quality control shortcomings, unexpected design modifications, or disruptions in our manufacturing facilities. Any of these factors may delay development or production schedules, increase costs, or result in hardware that must be reworked or replaced. Our operations also involve significant risks during pre-launch preparation. Launch vehicles and satellites can be damaged or destroyed during transport, fueling, integration, or ground testing. Furthermore, the early retirement or inoperability of satellites or related infrastructure may require us to accelerate depreciation or recognize impanment charges, thereby adversely affecting our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. Even minor anomalies may require extensive troubleshooting or repairs, resulting in launch delays, increased mission costs, or the loss of flight hardware. Because launch operations require coordination across multiple systems — including propulsion, avionics, ground infrastructure, and third-party range providers — issues in any one area can lead to postponements or mission cancellations. The occurrence of any of these risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.6.12 Our insurance coverage strategy may not be adequate to protect us from all business risks. We may be subject, in the ordinary course of business, to losses resulting from accidents, acts of God and other claims against us, for which we may have no insurance coverage. As a general matter, we do not maintain as much insurance coverage as many other companies do, and in some cases, we do not maintain any at all, including with respect to our in-orbit satellites, which we currently do not insure and do not expect to insure in the future. Additionally, the policies that we do have may include significant deductibles or self-insured retentions, policy limitations and exclusions, and we cannot be certain that our insurance coverage will be sufficient to cover all future losses or claims against us. A loss that is uninsured or which exceeds policy limits may require us to pay substantial amounts, which could affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.7 Other Risks 1.7.1 Adverse global macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions may negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. Adverse global or regional economic and geopolitical conditions could reduce demand for certain of our products and services. Economic downturns, inflation, higher interest rates, tighter credit conditions, reduced consumer spending, lower business or government investment, or geopolitical developments may negatively affect demand for our offerings. Reduced consumer or enterprise spending for each of our Starlink connectivity services or our AI-related offerings would limit our ability to grow our business, which may slow the pace at which we deploy satellites and expand our constellation or adversely affect the utilization of our launch capabilities. Any such developments could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. -32- fi f t s rm ir – – t fro ti fi f t s


 
1.7.2 We depend on our ability to recruit and retain employees who have advanced engineering and technical skills, and intense competition for such employees may increase costs and affect our ability to meet development and production timelines. We depend on our ability to recruit and retain employees who have advanced engineering and technical skills and, in some cases, employees with the necessary national security clearances to perform under our government contracts or win new business. These employees are in great demand and are likely to remain a limited resource in the foreseeable future. The current tight labor market has adversely impacted our ability to recruit qualified personnel, including engineers, particularly with respect to our AI segment. Increased restrictions on the import or retention of foreign labor may also increase demand for engineering personnel and adversely impact our ability to hire and retain qualified personnel. Continued turnover may impact employee morale and create other challenges as we attempt to scale our AI business. In addition, significant amounts of time and resources are required to train technical and other personnel, and we have in the past lost and may in the future lose new employees to our competitors or other companies before we realize the benefit of our investment in recruiting and training them. Our ability to recruit and retain qualified employees depends on a number of things, including our ability to pay market compensation, provide opportunities for advancement, and secure visa sponsorships and work peunits for qualified international candidates. If we are unable to recruit and retain a sufficient number of these employees, then our ability to maintain our competitiveness could be negatively affected. In addition, a significant portion of the talent pool for advanced engineering and technical roles is international, and changes in immigration laws or policies in the jurisdictions in which we operate could limit our ability to hire and retain such candidates and intensify competition for talent. Due to the highly technical nature of our products and services, losing a significant number of our existing engineering personnel, or failing to hire new engineering personnel, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.7.3 Any significant disruption in, or unauthorized access to, our computer and data systems or those of third parties that we utilize in our operations could result in a loss or degradation of service, loss of trust in us and harm to our business. An operational disruption in, or unauthorized access to, our computer and data systems or those of third parties that we utilize in our operations could compromise sensitive (including classified or otherwise government- controlled), proprietary, confidential, or personal infounation, impede operations, and result in financial losses, legal liabilities, reputational haun, and erosion of our competitive position in launch services, space-based internet, and mobile phone services. Our business depends on the continuous and secure operation of our infounation technology systems and infrastructure, including those that support our launch operations, manufacturing facilities, Starlink services, government services, employee databases, and mission-critical communications. Our systems and infrastructure may also be subject to cyberattacks, including sophisticated hacking attempts by nation-states, state-sponsored actors, cybercriminals, or other malicious third parties, which could result in unauthorized access to, disruption of, or degradation of our satellite systems, ground infrastructure, or data networks. Such disruptions or unauthorized access, which may result from a wide variety of incidents or activities, including inadvertent compromises arising from process, coding or human errors, cyberattacks, data breaches, exploitation of known or unknown software or hardware vulnerabilities, malware, ransomware, credential harvesting, computer viruses, social engineering (such as phishing), denial of service attacks, software or hardware failure, or other malicious or disruptive incidents or activities — whether perpetrated by external actors, including nation-states, state-sponsored organizations, or cybercriminal groups, insiders, or other threat actors, any of whom may see their efforts enhanced by the use of AI — could lead to the theft, destruction, or unauthorized disclosure of sensitive (including classified or otherwise government-controlled), proprietary, confidential or personal infounation, including technical data, customer or partner infoimation, and intellectual property, particularly because some of our products and services involve the collection, storage, and processing of such data and information. Our development and deployment of AI models, internal and third-party AI tools, and other AI applications expose us to increased and novel risks and vulnerabilities, including prompt injection, hallucinations, errors, and other issues related to AI agents, as well as the risk of compromise of valuable intellectual property including source code, model weights, and other assets. Certain internal and external threat actors, such as nation-states, state-sponsored organizations, organized threat networks and corporate espionage actors, among others have and will continue to sustain malicious activities for extended periods and deploy significant resources to attempt, and in some cases succeed, at causing significant disruptions in, or unauthorized access to, our computer systems or those of third parties that we utilize in our operations. Such incidents have in the past and may in the future also disrupt or degrade our ability to design, produce, launch, or manage our products and services, resulting in operational delays, violations of applicable data privacy and cybersecurity laws and regulations, disruptions in, or unauthorized access to, our customers' computer systems, increased costs, loss of revenue, loss of trust, litigation or regulatory penalties. -33- f rm t i ti rm rm rm – – rm r ’


 
As the scale, frequency, sophistication, or intensity of cyber and data privacy threats continue to evolve, and as our reliance on interconnected systems and third-party vendors grows, we remain exposed to vulnerabilities despite our efforts to implement security measures, monitoring, and incident response protocols. Our cybersecurity risk management processes, including our policies, procedures, and controls, may be ineffective in promptly or effectively detecting, containing, or remediating cybersecurity attacks. Any significant security and data breach or system failure could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects, and could result in loss of trust among customers, regulators, government agencies, and partners. Furtheunore, our efforts to investigate, mitigate, contain, and remediate the halm caused by a significant disruption in, or unauthorized access to, our computer and data systems or those of third parties that we utilize in our operations may be costly and time-consuming and may not be successful, and we may make errors or fail to take necessary actions. Remediation efforts, litigation, regulatory investigations, and compliance obligations (including obligations to notify appropriate regulators and affected parties) arising from such incidents could require substantial management attention and resources, and we rely on our own funds to cover such losses or liabilities. In addition, rapid changes to U.S. and international cybersecurity and privacy laws and regulations have expanded regulatory regimes and compliance requirements, and regulators continue to undertake enforcement actions in these areas. We expect the regulatory environment to grow more complicated, which may increase our operational and compliance expenditures, as well as those of our suppliers. Moreover, some third parties we utilize in our operations may receive or store information provided by us or by our customers. If these third parties fail to adopt or adhere to adequate data privacy and security practices, or their systems or networks are breached in the manner described above, our data or our customers' data may be improperly accessed, used, or disclosed to unauthorized recipients, which could result in financial losses, legal liabilities, reputational haun, and additional compliance obligations. We do not control the privacy and cybersecurity measures put in place by such third parties, and any contractual protections with such third parties, such as obligations to indemnify us, if any, may be ineffective or otherwise inadequate. Any significant disruption in, or unauthorized access to, our or third parties' computer and data systems could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.7.4 Our substantial level of indebtedness could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. We have significant indebtedness that could increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund operations, our growth strategy, product development and strategic initiatives; limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; and expose us to the risk of increased interest rates as our borrowings are, and may in the future be, at variable interest rates. As of March 31, 2026, we had total principal indebtedness outstanding of $29,132 million2. We may also be exposed to the risk of being unable to satisfy our obligations under the agreements governing our indebtedness and expose us to the risk of adverse effects on our credit ratings or outlook. In addition, if we fail to comply with the teims of our debt agreements, our lenders could declare a default and accelerate our repayment obligations. The occurrence of any of these events could increase our cost of capital, limit our access to financing, and impair our ability to obtain additional financing on acceptable teims, or at all. This could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.7.5 The estimates of future market opportunity and forecasts of market growth, and our ability to capture such markets, included in this prospectus may prove to be inaccurate. Our estimates for the total addressable market ("TAM") for our Space, Connectivity and AI businesses, as well as estimates regarding the growth of AI and its impacts, contained elsewhere in this prospectus are based on a number of internal and third-party estimates. For example, our estimates of market opportunity for our Space, Connectivity and AI businesses rely in part on third-party data and a number of internal assumptions. With respect to our Space segment, these estimates rely in part on estimates published in Novaspace, Space Economy Report regarding the size of the global market for space-enabled solutions, including spacecraft manufacturing, launch services and related activities. Our connectivity market estimates are based in part on estimates of the number of households, businesses, aircraft and maritime vessels globally derived from third-party sources, together with assumptions regarding ARPU and monthly service revenue derived from third-party industry data and our internal expectations regarding pricing, adoption rates and service penetration across different geographic regions and economic environments. Our AI market estimates are based in part on projections of global data center compute 2 Unaudited. -34- rm r ’ rm ’ fi f t s 2 r r f t fore t “ ” 2


 
demand from third-party sources, including estimates published by RAND Corporation, together with internal assumptions regarding the portion of global compute capacity that may be utilized for AI workloads and other operational assumptions such as power usage, utilization rates and pricing. These estimates require us to make numerous assumptions and judgments regarding factors that are inherently uncertain and subject to change, including the pace of technological development, future demand for launch, connectivity and AI services, the rate of adoption of satellite connectivity and AI technologies, the availability and cost of power and computing hardware, the evolution of regulatory frameworks, and broader macroeconomic conditions. While we believe our assumptions and the data underlying our estimates are reasonable, these assumptions and estimates may not be correct and the conditions supporting our assumptions or estimates may change at any time, thereby reducing the predictive accuracy of these underlying factors. As a result, our estimates of the TAM for our services, as well as the expected growth rate for the TAM for our services, may prove to be inaccurate. 1.7.6 Acquisitions, divestitures, or other strategic transactions we pursue may not achieve the anticipated benefits, synergies or strategic objectives. We may not achieve the anticipated benefits, synergies, or strategic objectives of any acquisition, divestiture, or other strategic transaction in a timely manner, or at all, including those we expect from the recent acquisition of xAl, the acquisition of spectrum assets and licenses from EchoStar in connection with our Starlink Mobile initiatives, our collaboration on Terafab with Tesla, Intel or any future partners, project and our recent collaboration with Cursor and any potential acquisition of Cursor, if consummated. Acquisitions, divestitures, or other strategic transactions may present unforeseen liabilities or disruptions to our operations. We may assume unexpected obligations or incur costs associated with acquired businesses, including litigation, regulatory compliance, environmental liabilities, or contractual disputes, which could result in material losses or divert management focus from ongoing operations. Integrating acquired businesses, partnerships, or joint ventures may present significant challenges, including aligning operations, systems, and cultures, which could result in inefficiencies, increased costs, or failure to realize anticipated benefits. The process of integration is often complex and time-consuming, and we may encounter unforeseen difficulties in harmonizing business practices, integrating technologies and IT systems, retaining key personnel, or reconciling differences in corporate cultures and management philosophies. In addition, the integration of acquired entities or new partners exposes us to disruptions in, or unauthorized access to, our computer systems and data or may divert management attention and resources from our core operations, potentially impacting our ability to execute on other strategic initiatives or maintain existing customer relationships. We may also face challenges in achieving expected synergies, cost savings, or strategic objectives within anticipated timeframes, or at all. If we are unable to successfully integrate acquisitions, partnerships, or joint ventures, or if the anticipated benefits of these transactions do not materialize as expected, we could experience operational disruptions, loss of key personnel or customers, increased costs, and diminished competitive position. Any failure to effectively integrate acquired businesses, partnerships, or joint ventures could result in operational disruptions, loss of key personnel or customers, increased costs, and diminished competitive position. Similarly, divestitures could result in the loss of revenue, disruption of customer or partner relationships, or challenges in separating assets and personnel. We may be unable to identify, consummate, or integrate future acquisitions, divestitures, or other strategic transactions on favorable terms, or at all, and any such activities may heighten our exposure to operational, financial, and regulatory risks unique to our industry. Any of the foregoing could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.7.7 Our efforts to support the creation of permanent installations on the Moon and Mars depend on the successful development and deployment of next-generation capabilities. Activities related to the industrialization and development of the Moon and Mars require the successful development and deployment of next-generation capabilities such as fully reusable launch vehicles, including Starship, in-space refueling and propellant storage, in space communications systems, and other capabilities required for operations beyond Earth's orbit. These systems involve significant technological, engineering, and operational challenges, including the need to develop habitable transportation and surface environments, and perform complex in-orbit operations. Solving these challenges will require developing solutions that are novel or untested and will require substantial capital investment. If these efforts take longer than anticipated, or if technical, -35- I i ’


 
operational, or engineering challenges arise in connection with these efforts, our goals with respect to the Moon and Mars, including government contracts, and other and multiplanetary initiatives could be delayed, modified, or cancelled. Even if such goals are achieved, they may not generate meaningful revenue or achieve profitability for an extended period of time, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. 1.7.8 We have a history of net losses and may not achieve profitability in the future. We incurred net losses of $(4,937) million and $(4,628) million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2023, respectively, and a net loss of $(4,276) million3 for the three months ended March 31, 2026. We may not achieve or, if achieved, sustain profitability in the future. As of March 31, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of $41,311 million3. While we have experienced significant growth in revenue over the last three years, we cannot predict whether we will maintain this level of growth or when we will achieve profitability again. We also expect our capital expenditures and operating expenses to increase in the future, including our general and administrative expenses as a result of increased costs associated with operating as a public company and as we continue to invest for our future growth, including substantial capital expenditures to design, develop, expand, and maintain our technologies and infrastructure to support our operations. Our revenue could decline for a number of reasons, including if we are unable to execute on our growth strategy and as a result of the other risks described in this prospectus. Furthermore, if we fail to maintain or increase our revenue to offset increases in our operating expenses or manage our costs as we invest in our business, including if we do not maintain or improve our operating efficiencies, we may not achieve or sustain profitability. Any failure by us to achieve or sustain profitability on a consistent basis could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, future prospects and cause the market price of our Class A common stock to decline. 1.7.9 The timing of our revenue and cost recognition may fluctuate due to factors outside of our control, which could cause our periodic results of operations to fluctuate and make our results difficult to predict. In our financial results, we recognize revenue and costs for a majority of customer payloads at the launch or deployment of the customer's payload to its intended orbit. While we plan launches and schedule payloads in advance, the timing of these launches or deployments may vary and can be delayed or otherwise affected by a number of factors outside of our control, including the customer's delay in delivering their payload for integration onto the launch vehicle, adverse weather, and other operational considerations. As a result, the timing of revenue recognition may shift between reporting periods. For example, if the launch of a customer's payload was expected to occur near the end of a reporting period but instead occurs shortly thereafter (e.g., on April 1 instead of March 30), the associated revenue would be recognized in the subsequent quarter. In addition, if a significant number of launches or deployments occur within a short period of time, the concentration of those events may result in greater variability in the timing of revenue recognition between reporting periods. These factors may cause our quarterly or annual results of operations to fluctuate and may make our results difficult to predict. 1.7.10 We are exposed to foreign currency risks and interest rate risks. Our Connectivity and AI businesses operate in many countries and transact in multiple currencies. In general, we are a net receiver of currencies other than the U.S. dollar for our foreign subsidiaries. Accordingly, we are exposed to foreign currency risk both from fluctuations in exchange rates affecting foreign-currency denominated transactions and from the impact of translating the assets, liabilities, revenues, costs of revenue, and other operating expenses of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars. We have experienced, and will continue to experience, fluctuations in our net income as a result of gains (losses) on the settlement and the re-measurement of monetary assets and liabilities not denominated in our functional currencies. We do not hedge foreign currency risk and changes in exchange rates could have an adverse impact on our operating results and cash flows. Our exposure to changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio, interest income on cash and cash equivalents and our credit facilities. For example, an increase in prevailing U.S. interest rates would increase the interest payable under our current credit facilities, including our bridge loan credit agreement providing for an unsecured bridge teen loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $20,000 million. Fluctuations in exchange rates or an increase in interest rates would adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows. 3 Unaudited. -36- fit il f t 3 3 t fl ct fact i fl i ’ r’ ’ fo i rm 3

Morgan, Deutsche Bank, ING and Santander, the "European underwriters"). 2.2 General Disclaimers We are organized under the laws of the United States. None of the directors, officers or other executives of the Issuer are residents or citizens of the EEA. Investors may be unable to effect service of process within the EEA. Furthermore, since our assets are primarily located in the United States, any judgement obtained in the EEA against us may not be collectible in the EEA. There is doubt as to the enforceability in Geii_'any of civil liabilities based on U.S. federal or state securities laws, either in an original action or in an action to enforce a judgment obtained in U.S. federal or state courts. The United States and Geunany currently do not have a treaty providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments, other than arbitration awards, in civil and commercial matters. Consequently, a final judgment by any U.S. federal or state court for payment, whether or not predicated solely upon U.S. federal or state securities laws, would not automatically be enforceable in Gelinany. In addition, in the past the recognition and enforcement of punitive damages has been denied by Gelman courts as incompatible with the substantial foundations of Gelman law. Moreover, a Gelman court may reduce the amount of damages granted by a U.S. court and recognize damages only to the extent that they are necessary to compensate actual losses or damages. The same considerations regarding enforceability of civil liabilities apply in Denmark and Sweden. There is doubt as to the enforceability in France of civil liabilities based on U.S. federal or state securities laws, either in an original action or in an action to enforce a judgment of a U.S. court. The United States and France do not have a bilateral treaty providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments (other than arbitral awards) in civil and commercial matters. In the absence of such a treaty, a final and conclusive judgment from a U.S. court is not automatically enforceable in France and requires an enforcement order from a French court. A French court may grant such an order without re-examining the merits of the case, provided it finds that three general conditions are met: (i) the jurisdiction of the U.S. court, which is assessed by deteunining if the dispute had a "characterized link" with the United States and that French courts did not have exclusive jurisdiction over the matter; (ii) the judgment's confounity with French international public policy, which includes both substantive and procedural aspects. Regarding substantive public policy, enforcement of a U.S. judgment awarding punitive damages may be denied if the amount is considered disproportionate to the actual loss suffered and the breach of contractual obligations. Procedural public policy essentially consists of principles protecting the fundamental rights of the defense; and (iii) the absence of fraudulent intent to circumvent French law. There is doubt as to the enforceability in the Netherlands of civil liabilities based on U.S. federal or state securities laws, either in an original action or in an action to enforce a judgment obtained in U.S. federal or state courts. The United States and the Netherlands currently do not have a treaty providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments, other than arbitration awards, in civil and commercial matters. However, a Dutch court may, without substantive re-examination on the merits, give binding effect to such a final -37- r rm “ ” rm rm “ ” ß ß rm “ ” é “ ” ö rm “ ” rm rm “ ” rm “ ” 0 “ ” “ ” é é é é “ é é é é ” “ ” rm rm rm r r r rm “ ” t’ rm


 
and conclusive judgment, provided that it finds that the judgment: (i) was rendered by a court that established its jurisdiction on the basis of internationally accepted grounds; (ii) was rendered in proceedings that comply with Dutch standards of the proper administration of justice (behoorlijke rechtspleging); (iii) is not contrary to Dutch public policy (openbare orde); and (iv) is not incompatible with a prior judgment of a Dutch or foreign court rendered between the same parties on the same subject matter. In addition, in the past the recognition and enforcement of punitive damages has been denied by Dutch courts as incompatible with the substantial foundations of Dutch law. Moreover, a Dutch court may reduce the amount of damages granted by a U.S. court and recognize damages only to the extent that they are necessary to compensate actual losses or damages. There is doubt as to the enforceability in Norway of civil liabilities based on U.S. federal or state securities laws, either in an original action or in an action to enforce a judgment obtained in U.S. federal or state courts. The United States and Norway do not currently have a bilateral treaty providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of civil judgments (other than arbitral awards) in civil and commercial matters. Accordingly, a final judgment by a Norwegian court against the Company would not automatically be recognized and enforced in the United States, and there is no certainty that U.S. courts would give effect to such a judgment. Conversely, a final judgment rendered by a U.S. court would not be automatically recognized and enforced in Norway. Whether a Norwegian court will recognize and enforce a foreign judgment will depend on a case-by- case assessment, and there is no assurance that such recognition or enforcement will be granted. Investors should be aware that awards of punitive or exemplary damages in actions brought in the United States or elsewhere may not be enforceable by Norwegian courts. There is doubt as to whether a lawsuit based upon U.S. federal or state securities laws, or the laws of any non-Spanish jurisdiction, could be brought in an original action in Spain, and whether a foreign judgment based upon such laws would be enforceable in Spain. In particular, the United States and Spain do not currently have a treaty providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments, and the same may apply to other non-Spanish jurisdictions. Consequently, a final foreign judgment, whether or not based solely upon U.S. federal or state securities laws, would not automatically be enforceable in Spain. There is doubt as to the enforceability in Switzerland of original actions, or actions for enforcement of judgments of U.S. courts, of civil liabilities to the extent predicated upon the federal and state securities law of the United States. Switzerland and the United States do not have a treaty providing for reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments, other than arbitration awards, in civil and commercial matters. The recognition and enforcement of a judgment of the courts of the United States in Switzerland is governed by the principles set forth in the Swiss Federal Act on Private International Law. This statute provides that the application of provisions of non-Swiss law by the courts in Switzerland shall be precluded if the result is incompatible with Swiss public policy. Also, mandatory provisions of Swiss law may be applicable regardless of any other law that would otherwise apply. The Swiss Federal Act on Private International Law provides in principle that a judgment rendered by a non-Swiss court may be enforced in Switzerland only if: the non-Swiss court had jurisdiction pursuant to the Swiss Federal Act on Private International Law; the judgment of such non-Swiss court has become final and non-appealable; the judgment does not contravene Swiss public policy; the court procedures and the service of documents leading to the judgment were in accordance with the due process of law; and no proceeding involving the same position and the same subject matter was first brought in Switzerland, or adjudicated in Switzerland, or was earlier adjudicated in a third state and this decision is recognizable in Switzerland. If any claims are asserted before a court of law based on the infounation contained in this prospectus, the investor appearing as plaintiff may have to bear the costs of translating this prospectus prior to the commencement of the court proceedings pursuant to the national legislation of the member states of the EEA. The investor should be aware that it may not be able to recover its legal costs in full, even if the action before the court of the member state of the EEA is successful. Neither the Company nor the other European underwriters are required by law to update the prospectus subsequent to the date hereof, except in accordance with Article 23 of the Prospectus Regulation, which stipulates that every significant new factor, material mistake, or material inaccuracy relating to the infounation included in a prospectus which may affect the assessment of the securities and which arises or is noted between the time when the prospectus is approved and the closing of the offer period or the time when trading on a regulated market begins, whichever occurs later, shall be mentioned in a supplement to the prospectus without undue delay. In any event, the obligation to supplement a prospectus no longer applies when a prospectus is no longer valid. The closing of the offer period (as defined below) is expected to occur on or about June 11, 2026, and the Company will not apply for admission of its shares to trading on any regulated market in the EEA. -38- rm rm


 
Accordingly, the validity of the prospectus will expire with the closing of the offering period, which is expected to occur on or about June 11, 2026. 2.3 Competent Authority Approval This prospectus has been approved by the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (Bundesanstalt fiir Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht, or Bafin, Marie-Curie-StraBe 24-28, 60439 Frankfurt am Main, Germany, telephone +49 228 4108 0, website: www.bafin.de, as the competent authority under the Prospectus Regulation on June 5, 2026. Bafin has only approved this prospectus as meeting the standards of completeness, comprehensibility and consistency imposed by the Prospectus Regulation. Such approval is not to be considered as an endorsement of the Company or the quality of the securities that are the subject of this prospectus. Investors should make their own assessment as to the suitability of investing in the securities. The Company has requested Bafin to notify the approved prospectus in accordance with Article 25 of the Prospectus Regulation, with a certificate of approval attesting that this prospectus has been prepared in accordance with the Prospectus Regulation, to the Danish supervisory authority Finanstilsynet, the Dutch supervisory authority Autoriteit Financiele Markten (AFM), the French supervisory authority Autorite des Marches Financiers (AMF), the Norwegian supervisory authority Finanstilsynet - Financial Supervisory Authority, the Spanish supervisory authority Comision Nacional del Mercado de Valores (CNMV) and the Swedish supervisory authority Finansinspektionen (FI). 2.4 Purpose of this Prospectus The prospectus relates to the public offering to eligible retail investors of a maximum of 55,555,555 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company in Germany, Denmark, France, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain and Sweden (referred to as the European retail offering). Please refer to "8.1 Conditions to Which the Offering Is Subject".

For further information on certain selling restrictions with respect to the offered shares of Class A common stock, please refer to "8.3.4 Selling Restrictions". 2.5 Forward-Looking Statements This prospectus contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include those that express a belief, expectation, or intention, as well as those that are not statements of historical fact. Forward- looking statements contained in this prospectus include information regarding our future operating results and financial position, our business strategy and plans and our objectives for future operations. These forward-looking statements may be accompanied by words such as "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "outlook," "plan," "potential," "predict," "project," "will," "should," "could," "would," "likely," "future," "budget," "goal," "commit," "pursue," "target," "seek," "objective" or the negative of these words, or similar expressions that are predictions of or indicate future events or trends that do not relate to historical matters. We caution you that the foregoing list may not contain all of the forward-looking statements made in this prospectus. The forward-looking statements in this prospectus speak only as of the date of this prospectus, or such other date as specified herein. We undertake no obligation to update these statements unless required by law, and we caution you not to place undue reliance on them. Forward-looking statements are not assurances of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions about future events. Forecasts, goals, milestones and expectations that cover multi- year time horizons, or unknown timelines, inherently involve increased risks with respect to predictability and actual results may differ materially from current expectations. While our management considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant risks, contingencies and uncertainties, which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. These risks, contingencies, and uncertainties and other important factors are described in "1. Risk Factors" and "5. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Net Assets, Financial Condition and Results of Operations". Should one or more of such risks or uncertainties occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results, performance, achievements or plans could differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements. This can make assessment of certain risks more difficult and you should factor these uncertainties into your -39- fü i z i - tr ß til ë é é til ó i “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” “ t’ ”


 
assessment of an investment in our Class A common stock.

Where financial infounation in the tables included in this prospectus is labeled "audited", this means that it has been taken from the audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP", and the "Audited Consolidated Financial Statements"). The label "unaudited" indicates financial infounation that has not been taken from the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements, but was taken from the consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. GAAP (the "Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements") or the accounting records or internal reporting system of SpaceX Group, or is based on calculations of figures from the aforementioned sources. Certain of the financial measures presented in this prospectus are not defined or required measures of financial perfounance under U.S. GAAP, are derived from and comparable to U.S. GAAP measures and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to profit for the year as an indicator of our operating perfounance or any other measures of perfounance derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Therefore, these figures may deviate from, and may not be comparable to, data based on U.S. GAAP financial infounation presented elsewhere in the prospectus. Unless indicated otherwise, all financial infounation presented in the text and tables included in this prospectus is shown in millions of U.S. dollar (in $ million). Certain financial infounation, including percentages, has been rounded according to established commercial standards. As a result, rounded figures in the tables included in this prospectus may not add up to the aggregate amounts in such tables (sum totals or subtotals), which are calculated based on unrounded figures. Financial information presented in parentheses denotes the negative of such number presented. A dash ("—") signifies that the relevant figure is not available or zero, while a zero ("0.0") signifies that the relevant figure has been rounded to zero. 2.10 Alternative Performance Measures Throughout this prospectus, we present financial infounation and operating data that is not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, or any other internationally accepted accounting principles (together, the "Alternative Performance Measures"), and that is unaudited. The Alternative Performance Measures are alternative perfoiinance measures as defined in the guidelines issued by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) on October 5, 2015 on alternative perfounance measures. We present these Alternative Perfounance Measures because we use them to measure our operating perfoiinance and as a basis for our strategic planning, and because we believe that such Alternative Perfounance Measures will be used by investors and analysts to assess our perfoiinance. These Alternative Perfounance Measures are measures of our historical or future perfoiinance, financial position or cash flows that contain adjustments that exclude or include amounts that are included or excluded, as the case may be, from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP in the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements. Alternative Perfoli_lance Measures are not measurements of our perfoiinance or liquidity under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to results for the period or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP or any other internationally accepted accounting principles or as alternatives to cash flow from operating, investing or financing activities presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP or any other internationally accepted accounting principles. Furtheunore, the Alternative Perfounance Measures are not recognized under U.S. GAAP, should not be considered as substitutes for an analysis of SpaceX Group's operating results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly titled infounation published by other companies. The table below sets forth the definition of each of these Alternative Perfoli_lance Measures and the relevance of its use: Alternative Performance Measure Definition and Relevance of Use Adjusted earnings before interest, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") of the Group Definition: We define Adjusted EBITDA on a Group level as net income (loss) excluding (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) share-based compensation, (iii) impaiunent, (iv) restructuring charges, (v) interest expense, (vi) interest income, (vii) other income (expense), net and (viii) provision for income taxes. -44- rm “ ” “ ” “ ” “ ” rm “ ” rm rm rm rm rm rm “–” “ ” i rm “ i ” rm rm rm rm rm rm rm rm rm rm rm rm ’ rm rm i “ ” rm


 
Alternative Performance Measure and of our reportable segments ("Segment Adjusted EBITDA", "Space Segment Adjusted EBITDA", "Connectivity Segment Adjusted EBITDA", and "AI Segment Adjusted EBITDA") Definition and Relevance of Use We also define Segment Adjusted EBITDA for our reportable segments (Space, Connectivity, and AI) as segment income (loss) from operations excluding (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) share-based compensation, (iii) restructuring charges and (iv) impaiunent. Relevance of Use: Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA are key perfounance measures that our management uses to assess our financial performance as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We consider Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA to be meaningful performance measures for investors to evaluate our operating performance and to compare the financial results between periods. For further information on the Alternative Performance Measures, including a reconciliation of each Alternative Performance Measure to the nearest measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, please refer to "5.10 Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures". 2.11 Currency Presentation and Exchange Rates In this prospectus, "U.S. dollar" and "$" refer to the legal currency of the United States.

3. REASONS FOR THE OFFERING AND USE OF PROCEEDS; EXPENSES OF THE ISSUE/OFFERING Unless otherwise indicated, all information contained in this section assumes i) an initial public offering price of $135.00 per share of Class A common stock (which is the expected price set for the U.S. offering) and ii) that the underwriters do not exercise their option to purchase additional shares of Class A common stock in the global offering from us. 3.1 Reasons for the Offering and Listing; Use of Proceeds We intend to use the net proceeds from the global offering to fund our growth strategy, including the expansion of our AI compute infrastructure, enhancements to our launch infrastructure and launch vehicles, and increases in the scale and capacity of our satellite constellations, as well as for general corporate purposes. We have not yet detelinined the allocation of the net proceeds among these uses and will deploy such proceeds as cash requirements arise in our business. We may refinance the SpaceX Bridge Loan (see "5.11.1.2 SpaceX Bridge Loan") with proceeds from notes offerings, bank borrowings, or other financial arrangements; however, alternatively we may use cash in an amount equal to a portion of the net proceeds from the global offering, or none at all, to refinance the SpaceX Bridge Loan. Pending their application, we intend to hold the net proceeds as cash reserves, including in the foil of bank deposits with U.S. and non-U.S. commercial banks. The intended use of net proceeds from the global offering set out above reflects our current intentions based on our present plans and business strategy. Our business plan focuses on building, commercializing, and operating services and products at a scale and prioritizes growth and investment to capture significant opportunities in AI applications and compute infrastructure. Our management will have significant flexibility in applying the net proceeds from the global offering. The categories of intended use described above should not be viewed as reflecting any order of priority or fixed allocation of proceeds among our business segments or initiatives. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, including cash flows and the anticipated growth of our business. 3.2 Proceeds and Costs of the Offering We expect to receive approximately $74.4 billion of net proceeds from the global offering if all base shares are sold (thereof approximately $7.4 billion attributable to the European retail offering if the maximum number of 55,555,555 European retail shares are sold thereunder) or approximately $85.7 billion if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of Class A common stock in full, based upon the expected initial public offering price of $135.00 per share (which is the expected price for the U.S. offering) after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. For more information on discounts, commissions and expenses, please refer to "8.3.2 Underwriting Discounts and Commissions". Assuming no exercise of the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares, an increase, (decrease) of one million shares of Class A common stock sold in the global offering by us would increase (decrease) our net proceeds by $135 million, based upon the expected initial public offering price of $135.00 per share (which is the expected price for the U.S. offering) remains the same, and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. If the net proceeds increase for any reason, we would use the additional net proceeds for the purposes set forth above. If the net proceeds decrease for any reason, then we expect that we would use the lower amount of net proceeds for the purposes set forth above. The following table shows the costs and expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, payable in connection with the sale and distribution of the securities being offered. All amounts except the SEC registration fee, the FINRA fee and the stock exchange listing fee are estimated. SEC Registration Fee 10,357,500 FINRA Filing Fee 225,500 Listing Fee .. 325,000 Printing Costs 700,000 Legal Fees and Expenses 25,500,000 -47- , i f f rm “ ” rm “ ” ’ ..................................................................... $ ........................................................................... .................................................................................... ................................................................................. ................................................................

United States 100%, indirect X.AI LLC United States 100%, indirect 4.3 Business Overview 4.3.1 Our Mission Our mission is to build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light of consciousness to the stars. To do this, we believe to have formed the most ambitious, vertically integrated innovation engine on (and off) Earth with unmatched capabilities to rapidly manufacture and launch space-based communications that connect the world, to harness the Sun to power a truth-seeking artificial intelligence that advances scientific discovery, and ultimately to build a base on the Moon and cities on other planets. 4.3.2 Overview Founded in 2002, we believe that SpaceX is the only company building the integrated hardware and software infrastructure of the future across space, connectivity, and AI. At our core, we are builders. We design, manufacture, launch, and operate products and services built on cutting-edge technologies, including the world's in our view most advanced rockets and spacecraft. We safely and reliably transport astronauts, satellites, and other payloads on missions that benefit life on Earth. Since 2023, we have launched more than 80% of mass to orbit for the world each year4 with an over 99% mission success rate with Falcon rockets. We also operate a high-speed, low-latency global broadband data and communications network powered by approximately 9,600 Starlink broadband and mobile satellites in LEO, delivering connectivity to millions of consumer, enterprise, and government customers across 164 countries, territories, and other markets, as of March 31, 2026. Using our dedicated satellite-to-mobile constellation, we offer connectivity services, supplementing terrestrial networks and substantially reducing mobile "dead zones" across approximately 30 countries. With the potential to improve both space exploration and life on Earth, AI accelerates SpaceX's mission. xAI, which was founded in 2023 and acquired by SpaceX in early 2026, is now an integral pillar of our vertically integrated company. We are rapidly constructing AI compute infrastructure — starting on Earth with the goal of extending to space — at industry-leading pace and cost efficiency. Our infrastructure supports training and inference for Grok, which we believe to be one of the world's most advanced frontier models. We aim for Grok to be designed as a truth-seeking AI model, built on our founder Elon Musk's mission to enable humanity to understand the universe. We believe that accomplishing this mission requires a truth-seeking approach to AI. We define truth seeking as the active, relentless pursuit of what is objectively true about reality, and grounded in evidence, logic, empirical data, and first principles thinking. Our goal is to understand and explain what the universe appears to be doing, as accurately as current knowledge allows. Within two years of its initial model release, we believe that Grok achieved frontier-level performance in scientific reasoning, as measured by its GPQA Diamond score, an industry benchmark that evaluates AI models on a standardized set of questions written and validated by experts, or a faster timeline than reported by other leading model providers. Grok also benefits from integration with X, our real-time information, entertainment, and free speech platform, which serves as a foundational distribution and data engine for our AI ecosystem and, in our view, further enhances Grok's truth- seeking objective. We believe that space represents the largest economic frontier in human history, unlocking unprecedented opportunities in orbit and on Earth. Earth has limits, so we must build infrastructure and industries in space, expanding human capabilities to improve life on Earth and to establish life beyond. Connectivity infrastructure in space is designed to help everyone on Earth have access to education, healthcare, entertainment, and communications, and to enable people to overcome many traditional limits, such as physical and political 4 Source: McDowell, Satellite Statistics. -50- ........................................ ..................................... .......................................................... ...................................................... ’ 4 “ ” ’ – – ’ ’ ’ 4


 
borders. We believe AI infrastructure in space can utilize the virtually limitless power of the Sun and thereby enable the use of AI as a transfoimative force for understanding the universe and improving the daily lives of all humans. We believe the convergence of these areas will enable an unprecedented expansion in the global economy, leading to an age of abundance. Our innovations and technological advancements are redefining industries on Earth, while we aim to create new ones on the Moon, Mars, and beyond. We believe SpaceX is the only company that has developed the capability to access space reliably at scale, revolutionizing an industry characterized by decades of stagnation, risk aversion, and economically perverse cost structures. SpaceX upended this paradigm through the application of first-principles thinking, which rejects industry assumptions and builds solutions based on the fundamental laws of physics. Our intense, mission-driven, engineering-first culture and focus on extreme vertical integration have further helped us achieve our goals. We believe that we have demonstrated the ability to achieve groundbreaking technological innovations with speed, quality control, and precision. We pioneered high-cadence, reliable, and affordable access to space with our Falcon family of rockets, with a goal to transform the rocket launch industry into airline-like operations. In 2015, we believe that we established at least a 10-year lead over the industry by successfully landing our first Falcon 9 booster back from space before anyone else. We have continued to invest significantly in further increasing our lead by pursuing full and rapid reusability at scale, including investing over $15 billion in our next-generation rocket, Starship. We believe rocket launches and landings should be as routine and commonplace as airplanes taking off and landing. To achieve this sort of cadence, our iterative approach emphasizes rapid designing, testing, and process optimization, putting flight hardware in the flight environment as often as possible. This allows us to accelerate our learning by repeatedly using and improving our systems. This has resulted in a significantly higher flight rate at costs that are much lower than launch programs that existed before SpaceX. For example, according to NASA, the first version of Falcon 9 in 2010 had a launch cost of approximately $2,700 per kilogram, which represented a reduction of approximately 85% compared to the historical average launch cost per kilogram of $18,500.5 The first version of Falcon Heavy in 2018 further reduced this cost to approximately $1,400 per kilogram, a reduction of approximately 92% compared to the historical average cost. With the future deployment of Starship, which is designed to be the world's first fully and rapidly reusable spacecraft, we aim to further reduce the cost to reach orbit by 99% or more relative to the historical average launch cost. Central to our cost advantage is the reusability of key hardware — most notably boosters — which we recover, refurbish, and refly many times instead of discarding after single use. This dramatically lowers per-launch costs by minimizing hardware replacement expenses and spreading fixed production costs across repeated uses. Space flight that historically cost billions per launch now costs in the tens of millions, fundamentally reducing the cost of space access, providing the opportunity to build new enterprises in space. Similarly, xAI has cracked the code in the complexities of building and scaling AI compute infrastructure, becoming the first company to deploy a coherent gigawatt-scale AI training cluster.6 We believe the combination of our proprietary AI infrastructure capability, our truth-seeking frontier model, Grok, and our access to real-time data on X creates what we believe to be a significant competitive advantage, allowing us to maintain a leading position in the development of advanced artificial intelligence. This advantage stems from our complete vertical integration and the common vision infused by our founder, Elon Musk. In just a few years, we have demonstrated an ability to build coherent compute at scale and rapid speed with lower cost. COLOSSUS and COLOSSUS II collectively provide approximately 1.0 gigawatt of compute power, with additional power capacity available for data center operations. We believe speed is a competitive advantage. In order to bring compute clusters online as fast as possible, we employ a vertically integrated, nimble approach to construction. At COLOSSUS, we brought online the first cluster of approximately 100,000 H100 processors, approximately 130 megawatts of compute power, in just 122 days, repurposing the shell of an existing factory. At COLOSSUS II, we brought online the first cluster of approximately 110,000 GB200 processors, approximately 210 megawatts of compute power, even faster in 91 days. As an illustrative comparison, an industry benchmark to bring online a 100 megawatt greenfield data center is approximately two years.' Furtheimore, in the case of COLOSSUS II, following the initial cluster, we brought online the second cluster of 110,000 GB300 processors and 220 megawatts of compute power in 64 days, demonstrating our ability to rapidly scale our facilities once built. We expect that once fully operational, the next phase of expansion at COLOSSUS II will bring online at least 220,000 additional GB300 processors and over 400 additional megawatts of compute power. We also demonstrated a 5 Source: Nasa, Large Reduction in Space Launch Cost. 6 Source: SemiAnalysis, xAI's Colossus 2: First Gigawatt Datacenter.

significant improvement in cost efficiency, achieving data center construction costs for COLOSSUS II that are considerably lower than industry benchmarks on a per megawatt basis. We are able to deploy power and compute significantly faster than other AI companies through first- principles thinking, behind-the-meter power generation, coupled with what we believe is the world's largest network of sustainable battery storage systems, and innovations in advanced liquid cooling, high-density rack layouts, and efficient networking. Our facilities also incorporate innovative design features that limit the effects on regional electricity pricing for neighbors and include advanced water cleaning, reclamation, and recycling processes to support sustainable operations. For example, our battery storage systems consist of Tesla Megapacks, which produce zero direct emissions during operation, reduce reliance on diesel backup generators, enable future on-site renewable integration, and are intended to be recycled at end of life. Our sustainable operations more broadly encompass a closed-loop cooling system, gas turbine-based behind-the-meter power generation to limit grid draw, and a water recycling plant under construction in Memphis, Tennessee designed to treat and reuse municipal wastewater for cooling, reducing withdrawals from the local drinking water aquifer. We partner with utilities and communities to connect to and enhance the grid over time, and do so while pledging to cover costs of all new power delivery infrastructure upgrades to service our data centers, including adequate network upgrade costs, to ensure that these expenses are not passed on to the ordinary household. Our ability to rapidly and cost- effectively scale with the latest processors keeps us ahead of competitors who deploy traditional and more expensive methods. As a result, we believe COLOSSUS II became one of the world's first data centers to deploy GB200s and GB300s, the most advanced AI processors available at the time, at significant scale, and is currently powering training for our next frontier models, including Grok-5. Furthermore, through our Terafab initiative together with Tesla to build a manufacturing facility capable of producing 1 terawatt per year of compute hardware, we intend to further extend our vertical integration to chip design and manufacturing to alleviate potential future chip shortages at SpaceX, optimize compute performance, and potentially reduce overall compute costs. Intel, which has the ability to design, fabricate, and package ultra-high-performance chips at scale, also joined the Terafab project in early April 2026. Our shovels-to-tokens approach allows us to train and iterate our frontier models at high velocity, accelerating development cycles, eliminating external bottlenecks, and driving rapid, continuous improvements in model performance. Since our founding in 2002, SpaceX has achieved a series of key milestones across our Space, Connectivity, and AI business segments: • Space. SpaceX's origins lie in the development of launch vehicle technology. In 2008, we became the first private company to develop and launch a liquid-fuel rocket to reach orbit. Building on this success, SpaceX in 2012 became the first private company to successfully dock a private spacecraft with the International Space Station, demonstrating our capability to deliver cargo to orbit for governmental customers. In 2015, SpaceX became the first to successfully propulsively land an orbital-class rocket booster, establishing the technical viability of reusable launch systems. In 2017, we further advanced our reusability program by becoming the first to refly an orbital-class rocket booster, a development that significantly reduced our launch costs. In 2020, SpaceX became the first private company to transport astronauts to orbit, returning America's ability to fly astronauts to and from the International Space Station. In 2023, we conducted the first flight test of Starship, our next-generation reusable rocket vehicle. In 2024, SpaceX achieved the landmark Mechazilla "chopstick" catch method, successfully capturing an orbital-class rocket booster at the launch site. By 2025, we completed our 500th Falcon mission, underscoring the maturity and reliability of our launch operations. As of March 31, 2026, SpaceX had delivered approximately 7,400 metric tons to orbit. • Connectivity. SpaceX's Connectivity segment is anchored by our Starlink satellite broadband constellation. In 2019, we became the first to begin deploying a large scale LEO broadband satellite constellation, laying the foundation for global high-speed internet coverage. In 2022, we were the first to manufacture consumer-grade phase array user terminals at scale and provided the first low-latency LEO network available globally. Starlink broadband service was activated in 2020, and by 2023, it had reached one million subscribers. SpaceX achieved the first launch of our Starlink Mobile satellites in 2024 and became the first to deploy a large-scale LEO satellite-to-mobile constellation, before reaching approximately 10.3 million Starlink Subscribers in 2026. • AI. SpaceX's AI segment represents our most recent strategic expansion. In 2023, we activated our AI capabilities, leveraging our engineering expertise and infrastructure at scale. In 2025, xAI acquired X Corp. In 2026, we became the first to build a gigawatt-scale AI training cluster and installed the first gigawatt-scale megapack battery. -52- ’ ’ ’ i ’ “ ” ’ ’


 
In pursuing our mission, SpaceX has created new opportunities across our three foundational competitive advantages, Space, Connectivity, and AI: • Space. Launch is one of our foundational competitive advantages. We were the first private company to develop and launch a liquid-fuel rocket to reach orbit (2008), the first private company to successfully dock a private spacecraft with the International Space Station (2012), the first company to propulsively land (2015) and refly an orbital-class rocket booster (2017), the first to begin deploying a large-scale LEO broadband satellite constellation (2019), and the first private company to launch astronauts to orbit, allowing American astronauts to again fly to and from the International Space Station on an American launch vehicle (2020). As of March 31, 2026, SpaceX had completed approximately 650 orbital space launches, and over 540 of those launches were completed by a flight-proven Falcon rocket, drastically reducing the cost of access to space. We are the only private company that is certified by NASA to send human missions to orbit. We are currently developing Starship, designed to be the world's most powerful launch vehicle. Starship is designed to be a fully and rapidly reusable transportation system capable of carrying larger payloads farther and at lower marginal cost per launch than our current Falcon rockets. Our launch capabilities power every aspect of our business. • Connectivity. Since activating service for customers in 2020, Starlink has rapidly expanded global access to high-speed internet, prioritizing underserved rural and remote communities worldwide. While building terrestrial networks in such communities can be prohibitively expensive, Starlink is capable of delivering broadband connectivity anywhere on Earth with just a Starlink Kit. As of March 31, 2026, we had approximately 9,600 Starlink broadband and mobile satellites in LEO, operating the world's most advanced broadband constellation providing internet connectivity to approximately 10.3 million Starlink Subscribers across 164 countries, territories, and other markets. In January 2024, we also began deploying our Starlink Mobile constellation that utilizes separate Starlink satellites with satellite-to- mobile capabilities, substantially reducing mobile "dead zones" around the world. As of March 31, 2026, our dedicated satellite-to-mobile constellation of approximately 650 V1 Mobile satellites provides satellite-to-mobile data, over-the-top voice, and messaging services to approximately 7.4 million monthly unique devices across approximately 30 countries. • AI. We were the first company to deploy a coherent, gigawatt-scale AI training cluster. We own and operate what we believe to be the largest AI training data center clusters on Earth, consisting of hundreds of thousands GPUs — all in the same spirit that enabled us to launch Grok faster than any other leading foundational AI model — while maintaining full vertical integration from on-site power generation and water reclamation to GPU deployment. In under two years, we have established a dual advantage in both cost efficiency and deployment speed at scale. By owning the compute infrastructure and vertically integrating across the full AI stack, we can train and iterate our frontier models at lower cost and higher velocity and accelerate development cycles. This eliminates external bottlenecks and drives rapid, continuous improvements in model perfoimance. The addition of the Terafab initiative aims to further extend our control to the foundational processor layer. We believe no other AI company has better control over the full physical stack than SpaceX. We believe this combination of our state-of-the-art AI compute infrastructure, our truth-seeking frontier model, and our access to real-time data on X creates a significant strategic advantage. Our integrated AI platfoims across Grok and X had approximately 1.3 billion supported accounts active in the last twelve months ended March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, including approximately 550 million and 520 million monthly active users ("MAUs") as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Of our MAUs, we had approximately 117 million and 89 million MAUs that used Grok's AI features as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Grok's deep integration with X enables freshness, relevance, and contextual awareness that we believe is a competitive differentiator. This direct, real-time access to the information and human discourse on X enhances Grok's truth-seeking capabilities by grounding outputs in up-to-date knowledge and diverse viewpoints. As a result, we believe Grok can deliver the most objective and relevant insights and best serve high-frequency, high-value use cases across consumer and enterprise AI applications. For complex reasoning and agentic workloads, compute is directly correlated with the quality of intelligence and task completion speed. Over the long-teim, however, we expect Earth's finite resources will not be able to sustain the immense computational demands of advanced AI models. Sustainably satisfying this compute demand will require space-based infrastructure that utilizes the ultimate fusion energy source: the Sun. We believe we are the only company with a commercially viable path to building orbital AI compute at scale, due to our unique ability to launch substantial mass into orbit through reusable, cost-efficient rockets, to manufacture secure, reliable, and high-perfoimance satellites at low cost and high volume, and to manage large-scale constellations. We expect that owning scalable, power- -53- ’ ’ “ ” – – r r “ ” ’ ’ ’ r ’ r


 
efficient infrastructure to train and operate frontier models will be the most important driver for AI differentiation as AI systems converge toward artificial general intelligence ("AGI") — which has the potential to unlock large-scale productivity gains, scientific discovery, and societal abundance. We have created distinct new markets across the space, connectivity, and AI industries by building the integrated hardware and software infrastructure of the future and by combining our broad range of capabilities. For example, SpaceX's recent acquisition of xAI unites SpaceX's launch capabilities and global connectivity network with xAl's AI development capabilities. Specifically, we believe SpaceX's reusable rockets, scaled satellite manufacturing, and operational expertise can enable the cost-effective and rapid deployment of massive AI compute satellite constellations — with potentially millions of satellites — for orbital data centers. We believe these AI compute satellites in Sun-synchronous orbit will be able to handle energy-intensive AI workloads, such as inference demand, at far greater scale and efficiency than terrestrial alternatives, with Starlink providing low- latency, global connectivity linking these orbital AI systems to people around the world and delivering real-time intelligence. Our goal is to leverage our launch leadership, global connectivity network, and AI expertise to allow us to continue building the integrated infrastructure of the future on Earth, the Moon, Mars, and beyond to benefit humanity. "The Algorithm," as it is known internally, is a five-step iterative process that emphasizes making the requirements less dumb, deleting unnecessary processes or parts (embracing the principle that the best part is no part), only then optimizing the necessary processes or parts, accelerating cycle time, and automating only proven processes. We strive to make the incredible and extraordinary accessible and repeatable, and we have grown rapidly by continuously leveraging our core strengths, including: • Global leadership in orbital launch services; • Unrivaled satellite and connectivity platform across design, manufacturing, deployment, and operations; • Truth-seeking AI model enhanced by real-time data; • Extreme vertical integration enabling high velocity and superior cost efficiency at scale; • Unique ability to scale new trillion-dollar markets across Space, Connectivity, and AI; • Business models that are incredibly difficult to replicate; and • Our mission-driven culture and world-class talent. We have a strong track record of capital allocation and value creation in Space and Connectivity. Since SpaceX's founding in 2002, we have raised over $9 billion of equity capital to fund the development and growth of these two business segments. The Space segment became Segment Adjusted EBITDA positive on a sustained basis beginning in 2018 and the Connectivity segment became in aggregate Segment Adjusted EBITDA positive on a sustained basis beginning in 2023. In 2025, our Space segment generated a loss from operations of $(657) million and Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $653 million8, including the impact of funding $3,004 million in research and development expense for our next-generation Starship launch vehicle program. In 2025, our Connectivity segment generated income from operations of $4,423 million and Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $7,168 million8. We believe that our financial results reflect our operating model and our ability to create and scale multiple new businesses: • For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we generated revenue on a consolidated basis of $4,694 million8, loss from operations of $(1,943) million8 and Adjusted EBITDA of $1,127 million8. In 2025, we generated revenue on a consolidated basis of $18,674 million, loss from operations of $(2,589) million and Adjusted EBITDA of $6,584 million8. Our Space and Connectivity segments contributed the substantial majority of our consolidated revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and the year ended December 31, 2025, demonstrating the benefits of their scale and operating leverage in our vertically integrated business model; • For the three months ended March 31, 2026, our Space segment generated revenue of $619 million8, loss from operations of $(662) million8, and Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $(351) million8.

Space segment generated revenue of $4,086 million, loss from operations of $(657) million, and Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $653 million9. Additionally, our Space segment funded $930 million and $3,004 million in research and development expense during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and the year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, for our next-generation Starship launch vehicle program. Starship is designed to enable a step-function change in our launch capability across reusability, payload capacity, and launch cadence, and is the key enabler of our long-teim growth strategy by unlocking entirely new categories of missions; • For the three months ended March 31, 2026, our Connectivity segment generated revenue of $3,257 million, income from operations of $1,188 million, and Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $2,087 million. Our Connectivity segment, primarily driven by Starlink, generated revenue of $11,387 million, income from operations of $4,423 million, and Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $7,168 million in 2025, representing year-over-year growth of 49.8%9, 120.4%9, and 86.2%9, respectively, benefiting from subscriber growth, increasing enterprise adoption, and continued improvement in network efficiency; • In our newly acquired AI segment, we plan to prioritize growth and investment to capture significant opportunities in AI applications and compute infrastructure. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, our AI segment generated revenue of $818 million, loss from operations of $(2,469) million, and Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $(609) million. In 2025, our AI segment generated revenue of $3,201 million, loss from operations of $(6,355) million, and Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $(1,237) million9, reflecting its earlier stage of development and continued investments to support long-teim growth opportunities in AI; and • For the three months ended March 31, 2026, capital expenditures for our Space segment was $1,052 million, for our Connectivity segment was $1,332 million and for our AI segment was $7,723 million. In 2025, capital expenditures for our Space segment was $3,832 million, for our Connectivity segment was $4,178 million and for our AI segment was $12,727 million. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is a non-U.S. GAAP measure.

The current paradigm, in which human civilization is confined to one planet, exposes humanity to existential threats that are unpredictable and uncontrollable on a planetary scale. These threats include naturally occurring catastrophic events — such as asteroid impacts, volcanic activity, or solar fluctuations — as well as man-made global conflicts. Geological and astronomical records indicate a non-zero probability of extinction-level events occurring over periods measurable in millions of years. Reliance on a single planetary home constitutes a single point of failure and carries existential risk with a probability of one that must be solved. By moving beyond the only home we have ever known, we ensure species-level redundancy and that the light of consciousness will not be tied to a single planet subject to the inevitable hazards of a harsh and vast universe. We do not want humans to have the same fate as dinosaurs. We want to give them a reason to look ahead with excitement, with the prospect that we are entering an age of abundance with an endlessly prosperous and exciting future. For decades, a reality where humanity travels between the planets and the stars has felt tantalizingly close but still locked in the pages and screens of science fiction. We are capable of better understanding the universe, exploring the universe, and ultimately making life multiplanetary across the universe. We are becoming a civilization with the ability to reach beyond Earth's cradle and begin to inhabit other worlds. While we remain dedicated to this fundamental mission, our progress in accessing space continues to yield opportunities that enrich life on Earth. We believe our steps into the expanse will be accelerated by the rapid emergence of AI. As humanity moves into the unknown, we believe AI will be our greatest tool for innovation and navigation, helping us better understand day-to-day life and the universe, and master the complexity of establishing new civilizations in the far-flung reaches of space. For AI to help us understand the universe, we believe it must be able to discard the often popular, but wrong, in favor of the unpopular, but true. By combining the innate human desire to seek truth 9 Unaudited. -55- 9 llion9 r llion9 llion9 lion9 llion9 9 9 9 llion9 llion9 llion9 9 r llion9 llion9 lion9 llion9 llion9 lion9 “ ” “ ” r – – ’ 9


 
and explore with our breakthrough technologies, we believe humanity will eventually reach new frontiers across the universe, while enhancing the quality and resilience of life on Earth. The rapid emergence of the AI era intensifies the urgency of our mission, as AI has the potential to accelerate not only space exploration, but also transfoimative societal advancements on Earth. However, AI's ability to revolutionize human potential is directly dependent on meeting exponentially increasing resource demands. On Earth, the massive expansion of data center capacity to support growing compute demand is significantly outpacing electricity generation, which was effectively flat in the United States for approximately 15 years, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 0.1% from 2008 to 2023. Despite the recent increase in electricity demand from AI data centers, electricity generation in the United States has grown at an annual rate of less than 3% between 2023 and 2025, while electricity generation in China has grown at approximately twice that rate in the same time period. U.S. compute demand has already outpaced available power supply with estimated demand of 62 gigawatts in 2025 exceeding the power generation of 49 gigawatts, according to industry sources.' ° We expect the gap between demand for compute and power supply to continue to widen meaningfully as AI compute needs proliferate. Such structural power shortages are expected to intensify over the coming years. This supply and demand imbalance is already imposing unsustainable strains on terrestrial power grids, supply chains, and the environment. The Sun contains approximately 99.8% of the solar system's energy and, as a result, we believe it is the only truly scalable solution to terrestrial energy constraints in the age of AI. Harnessing this energy in space is considerably more efficient than on land. Space-based solar arrays can generate more than five times the energy per unit area of terrestrial solar due to continuous illumination, lack of atmospheric interference, and optimal orientation. SpaceX is well-positioned to capture this space-based solar energy through our ability to rapidly access Sun-synchronous orbit through our satellite manufacturing scale and launch capability. As a result, we are expanding our footprint and harnessing the vast resources of space that are essential to sustaining technological development. Our goal is to ensure that AI becomes a force for human flourishing and a benefit to civilization, rather than a catalyst for terrestrial resource depletion and instability. We believe owning scalable, power-efficient infrastructure to train and operate frontier models will be the most important competitive differentiator as AI systems converge toward AGI — which has the potential to unlock large-scale productivity gains, scientific discovery, and societal abundance. Our unmatched launch cadence has massively increased access to space, enabling rapid and reliable missions for humans, cargo, and satellites — creating unprecedented opportunities for innovation, scientific discovery, and global connectivity. SpaceX has always been a mission-driven company, founded with the goal of making humanity multiplanetary. By dramatically reducing the cost of access to space, we have been able to expand our mission to address some of the Earth's most pressing challenges, including bridging the digital divide by aiming to connect over three billion unconnected people to the internet and humanity's collective knowledge. Starlink is our groundbreaking solution for global internet connectivity, delivering high-speed, low-latency access to the most remote and underserved corners of the world — from Antarctica's frozen wilderness to vast oceans and towering mountaintops — overcoming barriers posed by traditional terrestrial infrastructure. Starlink's unparalleled global reach has the potential to enable society to educate billions of people, to help lift entire communities out of poverty, and to provide essential connectivity to schools, hospitals, and critical services, fostering a more equitable and infoimed future for humanity. We support essential applications such as education in rural and underserved regions, telemedicine for hard-to-reach patients, seamless connectivity for aviation and maritime users, and resilient communications during natural disasters. For example, during the 2023 Maui wildfires, which devastated Lahaina and left thousands without power or cellular service, Starlink rapidly deployed over 650 teiminals to restore high-speed internet connectivity, enabling first responders, humanitarian organizations, and survivors to coordinate relief efforts, access aid resources, communicate with family, and support recovery in areas where traditional infrastructure had completely failed. During Hurricanes Helene and Milton in 2024 in the southeastern United States, our Starlink terminals provided a rapid lifeline for communication and recovery when traditional cell towers, broadband lines, and power infrastructure were knocked out for days or weeks by widespread damage caused by flooding and high winds. Our AI technology also has the ability to elevate the quality of life for people and communities around the world. We believe AI has the potential to revolutionize human potential — from advanced manufacturing and infrastructure development to scientific research and medicine — delivering tangible real-world benefits for individuals, organizations, and governments. For example, AI systems can expedite scientific discovery for researchers, aid healthcare professionals in precise medical analysis and diagnosis, and empower educators to craft tailored learning experiences for students. Moreover, these technologies can optimize Earth's resource allocation, enhance disaster response strategies, and drive efficiencies in transportation and energy systems. 1° Source: Intro', The 175 GW Crisis. -56- r ’ 10 ’ t t – – t ’ ’ – ’ – ’ r r – – ’ 10 l


 
We believe that our current space efforts will catalyze transfounative breakthroughs that could reshape terrestrial industries and lead to the emergence of new trillion-dollar markets on the Moon, Mars, and beyond. In particular, we believe our goal of establishing a lunar presence will enable terawatt-scale annual AI compute growth, support deeper space exploration and industrialization, and serve as a stepping stone to establishing a civilization on Mars. Due to technological advancements that we are working towards, such as in-space propellant transfer, we believe our Starship vehicle will be capable of landing massive amounts of cargo on the Moon. Once there, we believe it will be possible to establish a peunanent presence for scientific and manufacturing pursuits. For example, we believe that factories on the Moon will be able to take advantage of lunar resources to manufacture millions of AI compute satellites and deploy them farther into space. Our goal is to establish a sustainable lunar presence for scientific exploration, industrialization, and as a stepping stone to Mars, serving as a proving ground for habitats, resource utilization, and Starship systems essential for long-teen human survival beyond Earth. We believe the next paradigm shift for humanity is the creation of a resilient, perpetually expanding spacefaring civilization that drives continuous innovation across new frontiers, ultimately propelling us to Kardashev Type II status — a civilization that harnesses the full energy output of our Sun. In the near teen, we expect space-enabled technologies to enhance life on Earth through greater global connectivity and breakthroughs forged in the harsh environments of our solar system, leading to accelerating progress in energy and AI. As we build infrastructure in the Earth's orbit, and potentially on the Moon, Mars and beyond, we believe we are capable of unlocking an era of unprecedented economic expansion, while also contributing to the safeguards of humanity's future against existential risk. 4.3.4 Who We Are Driven by our mission, we believe that we have fouled the most ambitious, vertically integrated innovation engine on (and off) Earth. We are combining what we believe to be among the most transfounative and critical technologies in human history, including reusable rockets, a fully global internet service, satellite-to- mobile communications that enable connectivity everywhere, our real-time infounation, entertainment, and free speech platform, and a truth-seeking AI system designed to accelerate scientific discovery and augment human capabilities. These capabilities foul' a self-reinforcing ecosystem: launch systems deploy and maintain the satellite network, which delivers ubiquitous connectivity and vast data flows; the platfolin surfaces real-time infounation and supports open discourse; and AI processes data at scale to drive breakthroughs in physics, materials science, and space exploration. Together, they create a foundation for the development of the infrastructure of the future and the ultimate goal of establishing a self-sustaining human presence on other planets. SpaceX designs, manufactures, launches, and operates what we believe to be the world's most advanced rockets and spacecraft. We safely and reliably transport astronauts, satellites, and other payloads on missions that benefit life on Earth. Since 2023, we have launched more than 80% of mass to orbit for the world each year' with an over 99% mission success rate. We believe our launch capabilities represent the foundational competitive advantage that enables all other parts of our business. We operate a high-speed, low-latency broadband data and communications network powered by approximately 9,600 Starlink broadband and mobile satellites in LEO, delivering connectivity to millions of consumer, enterprise, and government customers across 164 countries, territories, and other markets, as of March 31, 2026. We also built what we believe to be one of the world's most advanced models in under two years and are rapidly scaling the associated AI compute infrastructure — starting on Earth with the goal of extending to space — at industry-leading pace and cost efficiency. We believe that AI is a transfounative force for understanding the universe. Together, we believe that space and AI will enable an age of abundance that will lead to an unprecedented expansion in the global economy. We believe we are the only company that has the foundational infrastructure across hardware and software necessary to drive transformative innovation across space, connectivity, and AI. Our technological advancements are redefining industries on Earth, while aiming to create new ones on the Moon, Mars, and beyond. 4.3.4.1 Our Launch Capabilities We believe SpaceX, since our founding in 2002, is the only company that has developed the capability to access space reliably at scale, transfouning an industry characterized by decades of stagnation, risk aversion, and economically perverse cost structures. We design, manufacture, launch, and refurbish reusable launch vehicles that provide cost-efficient, reliable, and high-cadence access to space for our own purposes as well as for third- party commercial and government customers. In 2025, we launched from four primary launch pads in the United States and successfully recovered boosters across seven landing facilities including autonomous drone ships and 11 Source: McDowell, Satellite Statistics. -57- rm rm rm – rm ’ ’ rme rm rm rm rm rm ’ ar11 ’ – – rm rm 11


 
catch towers based on the vehicle type and mission profile. Our extensive vertical integration and end-to-end control over the entire value chain, from design to launch to operations, allows us to achieve unprecedented speed and cost efficiency. As of March 31, 2026, SpaceX had launched a total mass to orbit of approximately 7,400 metric tons with an over 99% mission success rate across our Falcon rockets. We have completed approximately 650 orbital space launches, and over 540 of those launches were completed by a flight-proven Falcon rocket. In 2025 alone, SpaceX completed 170 missions across Falcon and Starship vehicles and 159 flight-proven booster launches with an over 99% success rate on attempted booster recoveries. We launched over 2,200 metric tons, representing over 80% of mass to orbit for the world in 2025. With the first successful launch of Falcon 1 in 2008, we became the first private company to successfully launch a liquid-fueled rocket to Earth's orbit. Just two years later, in 2010, the commercial debut of the Falcon 9 rocket revolutionized space access by delivering unprecedented cost efficiency. For example, according to NASA, the first version of Falcon 9 in 2010 reduced launch cost to approximately $2,700 per kilogram, which represented a reduction of approximately 85% compared to the historical average launch cost per kilogram of $18,500.12 The first version of Falcon Heavy in 2018 further reduced this cost to $1,400 per kilogram, a reduction of approximately 92% compared to the historical average. We have also reduced our internal cost of launch through a combination of engineering improvements, manufacturing efficiencies, and economies of scale — most notably, through our ability to drive more frequent reuse of rockets. In December 2015, we achieved landing a rocket launched to space back on Earth. By 2017, we were routinely recovering and reusing the Falcon 9 first-stage booster post-launch, delivering another step-function drop in space access costs via groundbreaking reusability. As of March 31, 2026, our Falcon 9 rockets have demonstrated the ability to refly a first-stage 34 times. Since 2020, our Dragon spacecraft has safely flown 78 crewmembers from 20 countries. With the future deployment of Starship, which is designed to be the world's first fully and rapidly reusable spacecraft, we aim to reduce the cost to reach orbit by 99% or more relative to the historical average launch cost, establishing the most affordable and scalable path to creating new opportunities in space, such as orbital AI compute and Mars exploration.

As the world's first orbital-class rapidly reusable rocket, Falcon 9 was first launched in 2010 and has a payload capacity to LEO of approximately 23 metric tons when fully expendable. Falcon 9 has completed approximately 620 orbital space launches as of March 31, 2026, and an over 99% mission success rate, making it the most active orbital launch vehicle today. In 2025 alone, we launched 165 12 Source: Nasa, Large Reduction in Space Launch Cost. -58- ’ 12 – ’ ’ 12


 
Falcon 9 rockets, of which 157 were flight-proven booster launches, and during the three months ended March 31, 2026, we launched 40 Falcon rockets, of which 39 were flight-proven booster launches. • Falcon Heavy. Falcon Heavy first launched in 2018 when it put a Tesla Roadster and its mannequin passenger, known as Staiman, into orbit around the Sun. With a payload capacity to LEO of approximately 64 metric tons, Falcon Heavy is a partially reusable super heavy -lift launch vehicle designed to deliver large payloads to orbit. Falcon Heavy is one of the most powerful operational rockets in the world measured by liftoff thrust, with 11 launches as of March 31, 2026 and a 100% mission success rate. • Dragon. Launched by Falcon 9 in 2012, our Dragon spacecraft became the first commercial spacecraft to deliver cargo to and from the International Space Station and, eight years later, the first privately built vehicle to fly humans to the orbiting laboratory. Since its first flight, Dragon has visited the International Space Station over 50 times, and restored America's ability to launch astronauts. Dragon has also supported all of NASA's private astronaut missions to the International Space Station, flown the first all- commercial astronaut crew, completed the first human spaceflight over the Earth's polar regions, and supported the first-ever commercial spacewalk. • Starship. First launched in 2023, Starship is designed to be a fully reusable, super heavy -lift launch vehicle. Starship V3 is designed to deliver 100 metric tons to Earth's orbit in a fully reusable configuration while enabling rapid turnaround times akin to commercial aviation. Future generations of Starship are being designed to double this payload capacity. To date, we have executed 12 Starship flight tests, with our 12th flight test in May 2026 debuting the next generation Starship vehicle and Super Heavy booster, powered by the next evolution of our Raptor engine and launching from a newly designed pad at Starbase. We expect Starship to commence payload delivery to orbit in the second half of 2026. We have achieved innovative milestones such as catching a booster using "chopstick" aims on the same tower it launched from. We expect this capability will facilitate rapid refurbishment and reuse, allowing for multiple launches per day at reduced costs. Upon achieving rocket reusability, we recognized the immense potential of our launch business to enable new revenue streams, as our launch capacity would eventually outstrip demand from traditional space customers alone. This realization, along with our efforts to make life multiplanetary, drove us to reimagine what was possible when access to space became more affordable. Rather than asking what was being done in space, we asked what large-scale global need could be better served from space. This led to the development of Starlink, our global satellite internet constellation, consisting of thousands of LEO satellites designed to provide high-speed, low- latency broadband connectivity to underserved areas worldwide. Although the concept of using satellites for global internet connectivity dates back decades, technical challenges and the prohibitive cost of accessing space historically rendered attempts to provide such connectivity economically unviable. Within three years of our first satellite launch in 2019, we solved the technical and production challenges of the satellites and had deployed the largest LEO constellation in existence. Today, Starlink is the sole low-latency network available globally.13 As the leader in space access, our launch operations are an important and expanding competitive advantage. By combining increasing launch cadence, expanding cargo capacity, and declining unit costs — driven by rapid reusability — we have generated a compounding competitive advantage. This not only fortifies our core business, but also provides vast new market opportunities uniquely enabled by space. 4.3.4.2 Our Leading Capabilities Across Space, Connectivity, and AI Space. While our launch capabilities support our other businesses, such as Starlink Consumer Broadband and Starlink Mobile, we also sell launches to third-party customers. We offer launch services to commercial, civil, and government customers through our reusable Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy rockets for satellite, cargo, and crew missions. We fly to LEO, MEO, GEO, lunar, and interplanetary trajectories, as well as the International Space Station. We are the primary launch provider for the U.S. government. In 2025, we launched 11 of 12 National Security Space Launch (NSSL) medium and heavy lift missions and all five U.S. crew and cargo missions to the International Space Station for NASA. We serve commercial and government customers — including NASA, the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), Axiom Space, SES, Eutelsat, and Oneweb. We charge our customers based on the type of rocket, mass to orbit, size of payload, and type of service, such as whether the launch is dedicated to a single customer or part of a "rideshare" with other customers. 13 Source: Ookla, Global Satellite Broadband Performance Report. -59- r ’ ’ ’ ’ “ ” r 13 – – , ti it – “ ” 13


 
Starship is our next-generation reusable rocket vehicle that we expect will expand our launch capability dramatically through full and rapid reusability combined with currently unprecedented mass to orbit capability. As the most powerful launch system ever developed (measured by pounds of thrust), we expect that Starship V3 will be able to carry a payload of 100 metric tons, and that future generations could reach 200 metric tons, potentially as soon as Starship V4. Starship is designed to deliver our next-generation satellites to orbit, long-haul point-to-point transportation on Earth, the cargo and crew necessary to develop a base on the Moon and a city on Mars for research and human spaceflight development. Connectivity. Starlink provides global access to high-speed internet, including underserved rural and remote communities worldwide. As of March 31, 2026, we had approximately 9,600 Starlink broadband and mobile satellites in LEO. We also provide satellite-to-mobile texting and over-the-top voice services to approximately 7.4 million monthly unique devices across approximately 30 countries. • Starlink Consumer Broadband. We operate the world's largest14 and most advanced space-based internet broadband service with median latency at approximately 25 milliseconds as of March 31, 2026. We provide fiber-like download speeds — at a median of 225 Mbps during peak hours for residential users as of March 31, 2026 — and the technological capability to provide service everywhere on Earth, including the poles. This service quality is enabled by our vast network of approximately 9,600 Starlink broadband and mobile satellites in LEO, which accounted for approximately 75% of all active maneuverable satellites in orbit as of March 31, 2026.15 We expect to commence deploying our next- generation V3 satellites, designed to offer one Tbps of downlink capacity per satellite, using Starship in the second half of 2026. We expect that a single Starship launch will be capable of deploying up to 60 V3 satellites to LEO, representing a potential twenty-fold increase in Starlink downlink capacity deployed relative to a Falcon 9 launch. As of March 31, 2026, we had approximately 10.3 million Starlink Subscribers, up approximately 105% from 5.0 million subscribers a year prior. We charge our Starlink Subscribers a monthly subscription fee, which varies based on geographic market and download speed, plus typically a one-time upfront terminal cost. • Enterprise Solutions. SpaceX is a critical partner to a wide array of enterprises. We offer Starlink's high-speed, low-latency, reliable internet services to enterprise customers across industries including construction, agriculture, retail, telecom, hospitality, aviation, maritime, and land mobility. Starlink's unique capabilities are well-suited for deployments across field offices, remote worksites, research stations, drilling rigs, rural hospitals, aircraft, cruise ships, trains, and hotels. Our enterprise customers include companies such as United Airlines, Carnival, Maersk, and John Deere, among others. We also serve a broad fixed-site customer base across industries such as retail and financial services that require high availability for critical operations as well as reliable connectivity in remote or hard-to-serve locations. As companies continue to invest in secure and resilient networks and backup systems to keep critical infrastructure online — such as point-of-sale and payment processing systems — we often start as a backup solution and then transition to being the primary solution. Our enterprise contracts are based on a combination of subscriptions, data consumption, capacity, or other pricing models depending on each customer's particular needs. Since 2023, no Starlink Enterprise customer having contributed more than $750,000 of annual revenue has voluntarily discontinued their service, demonstrating the strong performance and value of our offering. This is despite the ability of our customers to cancel the service at any time. • Government Solutions. For our government customers, we provide high-speed, resilient connectivity for public services, social impact, humanitarian efforts, and disaster response in even the most remote and challenging environments. Examples include support for the FEMA in coordinating disaster recovery after hurricanes and wildfires, the NOAA for at-sea testing and environmental monitoring, the Government of the Philippines for linking remote islands, schools, and public institutions, the Government of Jamaica for improving digital access in remote and maritime areas, and the Government of Ecuador for supporting education and healthcare connectivity in isolated communities. Separately with Starshield, we have leveraged our commercial LEO satellite constellation engineering learnings and operational experiences to develop a secure, dedicated satellite network designed specifically for United States Government customers and national security applications. • Starlink Mobile. We provide satellite-to-mobile connectivity, supplementing terrestrial networks and substantially reducing mobile "dead zones" across approximately 30 countries. We partner with MNOs 14 Source: Rest of World, How Starlink Became the World's Internet Alternative. 15 Source: McDowell, Satellite Statistics. -60- ’ 14 – – 15 i i ’ i ’ ‑ ‑ – ‑ ‑ – r’ “ ” 14 l ’ 15


 
including major wireless carriers like T -Mobile in the United States, and other international operators including One NZ, Optus, Telstra, Rogers, KDDI, Salt, Entel, Kyivstar, and VMO2. Through these partnerships, we enable consumers, businesses, and public-sector customers to use their existing phones in more places, support critical connectivity during disasters and power outages, and open new applications for low-bandwidth mobile and internet of things ("IoT") devices. Our current capabilities under our "V1" constellation (consisting of approximately 650 V1 Mobile satellites in orbit) include light data, text messaging (SMS), and over-the-top voice services (e.g., WhatsApp and FaceTime). We are developing more comprehensive satellite-to-mobile services, including broadband data and IoT connectivity, which are expected to deliver resilient, infrastructure-independent connectivity worldwide and enable 5G connectivity. We have partnerships with approximately 30 MNOs on six continents, covering an area that is home to approximately 1.9 billion people. We charge MNOs either a fixed fee or a per-mobile user fee-based amount, which is typically passed through to the customer via the carrier as an "add-on" feature. Our Global Starlink Subscriber Base • 164 Countries -10.3M Starlink Subscribers Starlink Mobile m Monthly Unique Devices Inclusive of countries, territories, and other markets I Metrics as of March 31, 2026 AI. We operate a highly vertically integrated AI platfoun spanning gigawatt-scale AI compute infrastructure, our truth-seeking frontier AI model, Grok, AI solutions for consumer and enterprise customers, and X, our real-time infoimation, entertainment, and free speech platfoim. We believe AI is rapidly converging toward AGI, where human cognitive capabilities can be replicated and scaled at machine speeds, profoundly augmenting human productivity. Once an AGI system exists, its true value derives from the ability to create limitless duplicates of human-like intelligence, necessitating vast computational resources and cost-efficient deployment to achieve meaningful scale. Without large-scale, power-efficient infrastructure, AGI cannot be deployed broadly or economically — making such infrastructure a critical strategic differentiator. • AI Compute Infrastructure. xAI has established a leading position16 in building and scaling terrestrial AI compute infrastructure, becoming the first company to deploy a coherent gigawatt-scale AI training cluster.17 Our AI compute facilities, COLOSSUS and COLOSSUS II, collectively provide approximately 1.0 gigawatt of compute power, with additional power capacity available for data center operations. Our first-principles thinking enables us to build coherent compute at scale and at rapid speed with lower costs than most other companies in the industry. We brought the first cluster of COLOSSUS online in 122 days, repurposing the shell of an existing factory, and the first cluster of COLOSSUS II online even faster in 91 days. As an illustrative comparison, an industry benchmark to bring online a 100 megawatt greenfield data center is approximately two years.18 We also demonstrated a significant improvement in 16 Source: SemiAnalysis, NVIDIA GTC 2025 - Built for Reasoning. 17 Source: SemiAnalysis, )(AI's Colossus 2: First Gigawatt Datacenter. 18 Source: BCG, Breaking Barriers to Data Center Growth. -61- “ ” “ ” “ ” rm r r – 16 17 18 16 – 17 x I’ 18


 
cost efficiency, achieving data center construction costs for COLOSSUS II that are considerably lower than industry benchmarks on a per megawatt basis. This dual speed and cost advantage stems from our complete vertical integration and the shared culture infused by our founder, Mr. Musk, across our Space, Connectivity, and AI segments. The addition of Terafab, an initiative together with Tesla to build a manufacturing facility capable of producing 1 terawatt per year of compute hardware, aims to further extend our vertical integration to chip design and manufacturing to alleviate potential future chip shortages at SpaceX, optimize compute performance, and potentially reduce overall compute costs. Intel, which has the ability to design, fabricate, and package ultra-high-performance chips at scale, has also joined the Terafab project. We believe that the key constraints in the continued growth of AI are physical — chip manufacturing, data center infrastructure, and power generation; the future of AI will be determined by the control of the physical stack. • Truth-Seeking Frontier Model. Through xAI, we believe we have developed one of the world's most advanced, truth-seeking frontier models with Grok. Since launching Grok-1 in November 2023, we have released four major versions and notable variations thereof, achieving one of the fastest iteration cycles in the industry, culminating in Grok-4.3 (April 2026). Building on this trajectory, we expect to continue scaling Grok through subsequent generations. Ongoing training of next-generation models is expected to scale toward multiple trillions of parameters, which could represent a step change in reasoning in depth and overall intelligence. In this context, the number of parameters refers to the scale of the model, where parameters are the internal numerical values, such as "weights," that are adjusted during training to enable the model to recognize patterns and relationships in data. A larger number of parameters generally allows the model to capture more complex relationships, store greater amounts of knowledge, and achieve higher levels of reasoning capability. Within two years of its initial model release, Grok achieved frontier-level performance in scientific reasoning, as measured by its GPQA Diamond score, an industry benchmark that evaluates AI models on a standardized set of questions written and validated by experts, on a faster timeline than reported by other leading model providers. This accelerated rate of innovation stems from our highly vertically integrated stack: full ownership of training infrastructure, access to the world's most powerful compute clusters, and relentless focus on truth seeking and real-world utility. A key competitive differentiator is Grok's deep integration with X, enabling proprietary access to a real- time information stream of approximately 350 million daily posts, which enhances freshness, relevance, and contextual awareness for Grok. This direct, real-time access to the information and human discourse on X enhances Grok's truth-seeking capabilities by grounding outputs in up-to-date knowledge and diverse viewpoints. We believe that this combination of compute infrastructure scale and the massive dataset available to us through X, subject to some limitations for certain content, has allowed us to achieve industry-leading performance and provide model outputs that analyze real-time information on global events. We expect that our compute infrastructure and direct access to real-time data via X constitute substantial performance advantages for Grok that will result in increasingly rapid and dramatic iteration cycles. • Consumer and Enterprise Applications. We leverage our frontier models and compute infrastructure to deliver consumer and enterprise applications. In under six months, we developed Grok Voice, a real- time speech engine, including in multilingual performance. Our image and video generation system, Imagine, produced approximately 10 billion images and over 2 billion videos per month, on average, for the quarter ending March 31, 2026. Together with Tesla, we are also developing Macrohard, an agentic AI platform designed to be capable of fully emulating digital workflows and augmenting human operation of computers — from coding and product development to management and entire business processes — using sophisticated autonomous agents. We believe Macrohard will have the potential to fundamentally transform how companies are structured and operate, thereby allowing dramatic increases in human productivity. In addition, we believe our existing government relationships and track record as large government contractors are a structural advantage as governments become significant consumers of AI applications. Our integrated AI platforr_is across Grok and X had approximately 1.3 billion supported accounts active in the last twelve months ended March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, including approximately 550 million MAUs, 520 million MAUs as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Of our MAUs, we had approximately 117 million and 89 million MAUs that used Grok's AI features as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. While MAUs provide an estimated measure of the size and engagement of our user base, we are focused on revenue and operating margin, and manage our business with the objective of driving sustainable revenue growth and profitability rather than with the primary objective of growing or maintaining MAU levels. -62- – ’ ‑ “ ” ’ ’ ’ i – – m ’


 
We also monetize user activity through high-impact advertising inventory on X. We believe X's scale, real-time engagement, and integration with Grok provide a differentiated foundation for building a unified user experience across communication, content discovery, commerce, and financial services, among others. For enterprises that advertise on X, we offer large-scale user engagement, real-time content, and advanced AI-driven performance marketing tools. For enterprises, we offer tailored deployments of Grok customized to specific workflows and security needs through Grok Business and Grok Enterprise, sold on license-, consumption-, or outcome-based pricing models. 4.3.4.3 Collaboration with Tesla SpaceX and Tesla developed the early foundation of a strong and constructive partnership through a series of limited but successful commercial engagements. Our relationship with Tesla evolved meaningfully following Tesla's January 2026 commitment to invest in xAI — an investment that, upon SpaceX's acquisition of xAl, was converted into an equity interest in SpaceX. Tesla and xAI continue to build upon their longstanding collaborative relationship by evaluating future strategic opportunities between the companies. One expected area of collaboration is an AI project called Macrohard. We expect Macrohard to benefit from running on both state-of-the-art processors and cost efficient, next-generation Tesla processors, a critical advantage of our vertical integration. Another expected area of collaboration is Terafab, an announced AI chip manufacturing initiative designed to vertically integrate the design, fabrication, and deployment of advanced logic and memory chips. We believe this initiative will alleviate potential future chip shortages at SpaceX and optimize compute performance. We expect Terafab to be the world's largest chip manufacturing facility. Our strategy for Terafab is to vertically integrate across the design of lithography masks, fabrication of logic and memory chips, and design of advanced packaging in a single closed-loop plant. Conducting all these activities end-to-end in a single facility enables rapid testing and iterations, allowing us to improve chip design and scale manufacturing faster. We expect that our speed and cost advantage from vertical integration will allow us to scale efficiently in AI chip manufacturing towards our long-term goal of producing one terawatt of compute each year. We are partnering to build Terafab in order to support growth in two kinds of chips — one type optimized for terrestrial edge and inference to be used primarily in Tesla's Optimus robots and vehicles, and another type optimized for the space environment to be used in our orbital compute infrastructure. While Terafab is intended to expand our internal chip manufacturing capabilities, we expect to continue sourcing a significant portion of our compute hardware from third-party suppliers. We view Terafab as complementary to these relationships, enabling us to augment our access to compute hardware at massive scale and further complete our highly vertically integrated compute platform by extending our control to the foundational chip layer. We believe that the key constraints in the continued growth of AI are physical — chip manufacturing, data center infrastructure, and power generation; the future of AI will be determined by the control of the physical stack. We believe that we are better positioned than other AI companies given our unique control over the full physical stack. We plan to explore other areas of strategic collaboration with Tesla in the future. 4.3.4.4 Collaboration with Cursor On April 19, 2026, we entered into a compute agreement with Cursor. Cursor develops and operates an AI-native integrated development environment that enables professional software developers and engineering teams to write, edit, review, and refactor code using large language model-powered agents and workflows integrated via its proprietary model harness. In 2025, Cursor launched Composer, its own large language model ("LLM") trained for software development. It recently released Composer 2, which offers improvements in coding performance at lower cost. We believe the compute agreement and any acquisition of Cursor (described below), if completed, will extend our strategy to vertically integrate compute infrastructure, models, and applications, can help accelerate our development of AI-native software tools, and combined with our significant compute capacity, will help strengthen our position in AI-assisted developer productivity. We expect to accelerate the development of our existing AI models, including Grok, through our collaboration with Cursor. Under the compute agreement, we will provide Cursor with certain GPU cluster compute capacity for use in connection with specified development, training, improvement and other activities related to AI models and other technology and intellectual property. In exchange, Cursor will contribute certain personnel, data and datasets, documentation, technical know-how, workflows, prompts, specifications and software code. We will collaborate with Cursor to improve our existing models, including Grok, and potentially to jointly develop AI models and related model-specific deliverables. Each party retains ownership of its pre-existing and independently developed intellectual property (including, in the case of SpaceX, Grok) and related improvements and derivatives, including where they are utilized in connection with joint development activities. Any jointly -63- ’ l ’ – ’ I ’ – l ’ – “ ”


 
developed models will be jointly owned, and each party will have a broad right to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, license, commercialize and otherwise exploit them without an obligation to account to the other party. We also entered into an option agreement pursuant to which we have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire Cursor. The option agreement generally provides that we may exercise the call option at any time during the 30-day period following the earlier of (i) seven trading days following the completion of the global offering (i.e., seven trading days following on or about June 15, 2026) and (ii) September 30, 2026. Exercise of the call option is in our sole discretion and subject to further approval by our board of directors. Cursor is also subject to certain exclusivity obligations under the option agreement. If we exercise the call option, we would simultaneously execute a merger agreement with Cursor, pursuant to which, following satisfaction of the closing conditions set forth in the merger agreement, including receipt of requisite regulatory approvals, Cursor would become our subsidiary, and, as a result, we would acquire all of Cursor's cash, intellectual property, personnel, customer contracts and other assets. As of January 31, 2026 (Cursor's fiscal year-end), Cursor had $3.1 billion of total assets, primarily comprising $2.7 billion of cash and cash equivalents, and $0.55 billion of total liabilities. The purchase price would primarily be allocated to goodwill on our balance sheet. Cursor has historically earned some revenue by providing services to customers and, if we acquired Cursor, we may provide these or similar services to customers after the acquisition although at revenue levels that may vary significantly from historical performance. If we exercise the call option to acquire Cursor, we would expect to retain certain Cursor talent by committing to provide continuing employees with competitive compensation and retention-focused incentives designed to support the long-teen value of SpaceX. If we exercise the call option and the acquisition closes, the consideration would consist of shares of our Class A common stock. The number of shares issuable would be determined based on an implied equity value of Cursor of $60.0 billion divided by the volume-weighted average closing price of our Class A common stock over the seven consecutive trading days immediately preceding the closing of the acquisition. In addition, if either (i) we decide to teuninate the option agreement or (ii) Cursor is eligible to and decides to terminate due to our material breach of the option agreement (subject to notice and cure provisions), Cursor would be entitled to a $1.5 billion teunination fee under the option agreement and an $8.5 billion deferred services fee under the compute agreement. These fees would be payable in cash (or Class A common stock, if the global offering has not been consummated at the time the fees become payable). Any shares of our Class A common stock issuable pursuant to the merger agreement would be issued in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof. As a result, any such shares of Class A common stock would be deemed "restricted securities" as such teen is defined under Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act. Such shares of Class A common stock would be eligible for resale only if registered under the U.S. Securities Act or if such resales qualify for an exemption from registration. We have conducted preliminary due diligence on Cursor's business, technology and operations, and expect to continue such diligence in connection with any decision to exercise the call option. We cannot predict whether we will elect to exercise the call option or, if exercised, whether the acquisition will close on the anticipated terns, or at all. 4.3.4.5 Compute Services Agreements with Third Parties We believe our compute infrastructure and related strategy provides us with substantial flexibility in how we allocate and monetize capacity. We have the ability to use compute resources to support our proprietary AI applications (such as Grok-5, which is currently being trained at COLOSSUS II), while also providing access to select compute capacity to third-party customers. For example, in May 2026, we entered into Cloud Services Agreements with Anthropic, an AI research and development public benefit corporation, with respect to access to compute capacity across COLOSSUS and COLOSSUS II. Compute capacity provided includes approximately 325,000 NVIDIA GPUs, backed by hyperscale-class CPUs, exabyte-scale storage and high-speed networking and interconnects purpose-built for AI workloads. Pursuant to these agreements, the customer has agreed to pay us $1.25 billion per month through May 2029, with capacity ramping in May and June 2026 at a reduced fee. After the initial three-month period, the agreements may be terminated by either party upon 90 days' notice. The customer will retain ownership and intellectual property rights in its content, AI models, and related data. This structure allows us to monetize a portion of the compute capacity in our infrastructure, while still permitting reallocation of that capacity for our own internal initiatives if needed in the future. We have sufficient capacity to provide compute for our own AI models, including support of our training and inference demands, and to satisfy the obligations under these agreements. We expect to enter into additional similar services contracts for compute -64- r’ r’ rm rm rm “ ” rm r’ m i t ’


 
capacity with third parties. To the extent we become compute constrained due internal and external utilization, we would need to expand our compute infrastructure. We believe this opportunity highlights the increasing importance of large-scale, frontier-level AI infrastructure and positions us as a differentiated provider of high- perfoimance compute capacity to both internal and third-party AI workloads. We believe our dual monetization strategy provides multiple pathways to generate returns on invested capital. 4.3.4.6 Our Repeatable Business Model Our business model is built on a repeatable, engineering-driven framework that combines our launch capabilities, extreme vertical integration, rapid iteration, and disciplined capital investment to create durable, large-scale businesses. We execute this framework through the following core principles: 1. Leverage our launch capabilities to enable massive scale. Our rockets — with what we believe to be leading launch cadence, best-in-class reliability, and dramatically reduced cost-to-orbit — are the foundation that we expect will enable us to create economic opportunities in space and deliver a diversified portfolio of services. Our launch capabilities enable large-scale deployment of assets that would not otherwise be economically viable. 2. Identify and create new trillion-dollar market opportunities. We focus on market opportunities that are useful for humanity and that present trillion-dollar opportunities, including global broadband and mobile connectivity for consumers, enterprises, and governments; and AI applications and computational infrastructure. We prioritize opportunities where structural inefficiencies or legacy technological limitations have constrained supply. 3. Design a solution with world-class engineering and first-principles thinking. We apply physics- based engineering and first-principles thinking to design products and systems from the ground up — boiling things down to the most fundamental truths and reasoning up from there. This helps us drive massive, step-function improvements in perfoiinance, scalability, and cost. 4. Apply "The Algorithm" (make less dumb, delete, optimize, accelerate, automate). We operate under a set of core execution principles that we refer to as "The Algorithm," a five-step iterative process that we use as our guiding principles day-to-day. We make the requirements less dumb, delete unnecessary processes or parts (embracing the principle that the best part is no part), only then optimize the necessary processes or parts, and then accelerate cycle time (many entities have launched once; no one other than us has ever launched over 100 times per year), and automate only proven processes after the first four steps are completed. We apply the Algorithm across every aspect of our organization. 5. Vertically integrate all the way to the end customer. We design and manufacture a significant portion of our components in-house, including engines, avionics, structures, and software, even producing the "tools that make the tools," enabling us to test, fail, and iterate rapidly. We can then release newer, more advanced hardware with speed and cost efficiency. 6. Continuously drive cost down and throughput up. Through rocket reusability, manufacturing at scale, advanced automation, and rigorous operational discipline, we continuously reduce unit costs while increasing launch cadence, satellite network, and AI hosting capacity. 7. Generate significant cash flow and reinvest in the future. As our businesses scale, they generate significant cash flow, which we reinvest into nascent market opportunities — driving a self-reinforcing cycle of constant innovation and potentially creating significant additional value. Starship is a powerful example of this business model in action. Upon achieving a fully and rapidly reusable design, we believe Starship will support a step-function increase in launch capacity and be capable of landing massive amounts of cargo on the Moon. Once there, we believe it will be possible to establish a peunanent presence for scientific and manufacturing pursuits. For example, we believe that factories on the Moon could take advantage of lunar resources to manufacture millions of AI compute satellites and deploy them farther into space. Additionally, we are collaborating with NASA under the Artemis program to land humans on the Moon, with the goal of using Starship for transportation, which will be the first such mission since 1972. We will continue leveraging our expanding launch capabilities, combined with our engineering and manufacturing expertise, to create and scale new markets in space. -65- r – – ill i i – rm “ rit ” “ ” “ ” – rm


 
4.3.4.7 Our Engineering-First Culture Our core approach is deeply rooted in first-principles thinking, which rejects any preconceived notions or experience-based nouns. Our track record demonstrates our capacity to execute space missions and achieve technological breakthroughs with speed and precision that others have not achieved. Some of our industry- defining achievements and historic milestones include: • The first private company to develop and launch a liquid-fuel rocket to reach orbit (2008); • The first private company to successfully dock a private spacecraft with the International Space Station (2012); • The first to successfully propulsively land (2015) and refly orbital-class rocket boosters (2017); • The first to begin deploying a large-scale LEO broadband satellite constellation (2019); • The first private company to transport astronauts to orbit, returning America's ability to fly astronauts to and from the International Space Station (2020); • The first to manufacture consumer-grade phased-array user teuninals at scale (2022); • The first to deploy a large-scale LEO satellite-to-mobile constellation (2025); • The first to build a gigawatt-scale AI training cluster and largest coherent supercomputer (2026); • The first gigawatt-scale Megapack battery installation (2026); and • The only company capable of building orbital AI compute at scale. Our organizational philosophy fosters an engineering- and data-led culture that embraces failure as an essential learning opportunity and is maniacally focused on efficiency and speed. This culture allows us to deliberately move quickly to test new hardware, knowing that early failures provide more valuable data than protracted analysis. We view our factories as the machines that build the machines and maintain a relentless focus on our ability to move, fail, and fix fast. 4.3.5 Our AI Compute Infrastructure Advantage and Growth Strategy We believe AI leadership will be defined by the ability to rapidly scale compute capacity to support exponential usage growth and frontier intelligence. There is a meaningful compounding benefit of greater usage, creating more data for training, driving improvements in model perfounance, and in turn leading to greater usage. We believe that our highly vertically integrated, shovels-to-tokens approach allows us to train and iterate our frontier models at lower cost and higher velocity, accelerating development cycles, eliminating external bottlenecks, and driving rapid, continuous improvements in model perfounance. This dynamic reinforces the criticality of scale and cost efficiency in compute infrastructure as the primary differentiator in the AI landscape. In addition, our leadership in compute infrastructure positions us to monetize not only AI software applications built on our models, but also the underlying compute that powers them. As we continue to scale our terrestrial and orbital compute infrastructure to support internal model development, training, and inference workloads, we intend to sell our high-performance compute capacity to a limited number of third party customers. Why Compute Matters. The training and inference demanded by advanced AI models require substantial computational resources. Greater compute capacity enables more intelligence by training new generations of models with increasing frequency and creating more capable models, ability to support inference, or usage, across a large and growing user base, and extraction of the highest perfounance from those models. As the AI user base expands, we also expect compute demand per user to increase significantly. Reasoning models introduced in 2024 demonstrated that allocating more computational resources during inference directly leads to higher-quality intelligence. AI agents popularized in 2026 demonstrated that allocating more computational resources enabled multi-step task execution, meaningfully increasing compute demand per human user interaction. In addition, compute infrastructure with end-to-end, cluster-level coherence through tight integration across software and hardware systems enables more efficient, stable, and higher-fidelity training and inference at scale — ultimately enhancing model intelligence and perfoimance. Within inference, we expect computationally-intensive reasoning, agentic, and multi-modal workloads will continue to grow as a portion of overall usage. We therefore expect demand for compute will continue to increase across consumer, enterprise, and government applications as AI -66- rm i ’ rm t rm rm rm – r


 
adoption accelerates. For example, U.S. compute demand has already outpaced available power supply with estimated demand of 62 gigawatts in 2025 exceeding the power generation of 49 gigawatts, according to industry sources. We expect the gap between demand for compute and power supply to continue to widen meaningfully as AI compute needs proliferate. Furtheunore, we believe that third-party estimates on data center demand are constrained by the practical supply limitations that exist in a terrestrial context and the power shortage may be far greater than what research estimates suggest. We believe operators with superior model-to-compute integration — the ability to efficiently support and allocate compute across both training and inference workloads — are best positioned to win the AI race. Self-Reinforcing Network Effects Among Lower Cost Per Token, Model Quality, and User Adoption. AI systems are ultimately constrained or differentiated by the cost, speed, and scale at which they can generate and process tokens. A "token" represents the fundamental unit of data consumed and produced by modern AI models, for example corresponding to words, images, audio, or other modalities. It serves as the atomic unit through which models read, reason, and generate output. As such, tokens are the primary basis for measuring both the cost of training and cost of inference, making them a foundational economic metric in the AI space. Companies that can structurally reduce energy, compute, networking, and deployment costs per token will be positioned to train faster, iterate more rapidly, and ultimately manufacture greater intelligence, scale models more rapidly, and deliver increasingly powerful and accessible AI solutions. This creates a self-reinforcing advantage in which lower token costs drive greater model quality and user adoption, reinforcing AI leadership. This is because lower cost per token enables more frequent model training, larger and more sophisticated models, longer chains of processing for reasoning and agentic workloads, and significantly higher inference volumes at economically viable prices. This dynamic directly impacts model quality, responsiveness, and accessibility, while also deteunining the ability to serve the rising global demand across consumer, enterprise, and mission-critical AI applications. As AI systems scale toward increasingly complex reasoning tasks and higher usage intensity, improvement in cost per token enables meaningful advantages in perfounance quality, scaled distribution, and monetization. This is particularly true as the industry converges towards recursive self-improving learning that minimizes human intervention, which is highly token consumptive. Cost of Compute is the Main Driver of Cost Per Token. The cost of compute is the primary driver of cost per token across both training and inference workloads. Each token processed by an AI model requires a quantifiable amount of computational effort. The total cost per token is deteunined by the efficiency, availability, and unit economics of the underlying compute resources. According to SemiAnalysis, for most AI companies without a build cost advantage, their total capital cost of building compute infrastructure derives approximately 30% from data center construction costs (including, but not limited to, the shell; mechanical, electrical, and plumbing ("MEP"); and grid interconnection) and approximately 70% from the cost of procuring processors and critical IT equipment. Ongoing operational costs of utilizing this compute infrastructure include the cost of power to run the processors, cost of maintaining those processors, and cost of delivering inference workloads to the end user. Improvement in the cost of building and operating this compute infrastructure — whether through lower data center construction cost, lower power infrastructure cost, shorter time to grid interconnection, or higher cluster- level throughput — translates directly into lower cost per token. Accordingly, for a given level of intelligence, we expect the long-teen economics of AI companies to be driven by the ability to consistently deliver bleeding-edge compute at the lowest possible cost per token. Put simply, we view cost per token as a function of three primary inputs — the underlying AI model, the compute hardware, and energy, and we expect to have a competitive advantage in the latter two cost components. We believe we have a pathway over time that will significantly reduce compute hardware costs through continued vertical integration and development of proprietary chips, building on our experience designing custom silicon for our Starlink satellites. We also expect that the marginal cost of energy for our AI compute satellites will be minimal because our satellites are powered by solar arrays in space. By driving the energy component to minimal levels and pursuing improvements in compute hardware cost, we believe we can achieve a meaningfully lower overall cost per token in the future. We Have a Dual Speed and Cost Advantage in Terrestrial Al Compute. We have established a leading position in building and scaling terrestrial AI compute infrastructure, becoming the first company to deploy a coherent gigawatt-scale AI training cluster.19 We own and operate what we believe to be the largest AI training data center clusters on Earth. Our AI compute facilities, COLOSSUS and COLOSSUS II, collectively provide approximately 1.0 gigawatt of compute power, with additional power capacity available for data center operations. Our first-principles thinking enables us to build coherent compute at scale and at rapid speed with lower costs than most other companies in the industry. We brought the first cluster of COLOSSUS online in 122 days, repurposing the shell of an existing factory, and the first cluster of COLOSSUS II online even faster in 91 days. As an illustrative comparison, an industry benchmark to bring online a 100 megawatt greenfield data center is 19 Source: SemiAnalysis, )(AI's Colossus 2: First Gigawatt Datacenter. -67- rm – – lit “ ” rm rm rm “ ” – – rm – err t I 19 19 x I’


 
approximately two years.2° We also demonstrated a significant improvement in cost efficiency, achieving data center construction costs for COLOSSUS II that are considerably lower than industry benchmarks on a per megawatt basis. We are able to deploy power and compute significantly faster than other AI companies through first-principles thinking, behind-the-meter power generation, coupled with what we believe is the world's largest network of sustainable battery storage systems, and innovations in advanced liquid cooling, high-density rack layouts, and efficient networking. Our first-principles thinking and innovations in advanced liquid cooling, high-density rack layouts, and efficient networking enable rapid, cost-effective scaling with the latest processors — keeping us ahead of competitors deploying traditional methods. Faster deployments reinforce our cost advantage: we are able to access and bring online the highest perfouning hardware before our competitors, allowing us to sustain a token cost advantage. For example, we believe COLOSSUS II became one of the world's first data centers to deploy GB200s and GB300s at significant scale and is currently powering training for our next frontier models, including Grok- 5. We have already proven in multiple large-scale terrestrial data centers that we have built not only faster than competitors in the industry, but also at a lower cost. Our competitive advantage in Orbital AI. The Sun contains approximately 99.8% of the solar system's energy and offers what we believe is the only truly scalable solution to terrestrial energy constraints, as we expect the cost and availability of terrestrial energy sources over time will necessitate a transition to orbital AI solutions. The logical path forward is to move power-intensive AI workloads into orbit, where solar energy is near-constant and uninterrupted. With such accessibility to energy, we believe that our launch business will enable us to consistently activate the highest perfouning hardware before our competitors without such access, shrinking the timeline to useful tokens on bleeding-edge hardware and sustaining our token cost advantage. Manufacturing next-generation satellites and launching them into space in very large numbers is a core component of our plans. We believe we are the only company with a commercially viable path to building orbital AI compute at scale. This is underpinned by our unique ability to launch substantial mass into orbit cost-efficiently through reusable rockets and to manufacture secure, reliable, and high-performance satellites at low cost and high volume. • Terrestrial compute leadership. We believe the same cost and build advantages that have underpinned our leadership in gigawatt-scale terrestrial data centers will enable us to innovate across other terrestrial data center formats such as modular data centers for inference. We believe our modular terrestrial data center architectures will provide a foundation for the deployment of compute infrastructure in orbit given similarities in foul' factor in contrast to a gigawatt-scale campus. • Satellites. Just as we expect our expertise in terrestrial data centers will enable us to package AI compute into modular, satellite foul' factors, we expect our leadership in satellite communications to allow us to interconnect our fleet of AI compute satellites into a massive, coherent constellation of compute. For example, as of March 31, 2026, our constellation already incorporated over 23,000 inter-satellite lasers that create a dynamic mesh network in space, enabling traffic to route through orbit rather than relying solely on terrestrial backhaul infrastructure. We are designing next-generation, high-performance AI compute satellites built for high volume, low cost, and with the reliability required for long-duration operation in space. • Starship. We expect each of our Starship V3 vehicles to carry 100 metric tons to Earth's orbit in a reusable configuration, and future generations could reach 200 metric tons in capacity, potentially as soon as Starship V4. Future generations of Starship are being designed to eventually deliver millions of tons to orbit and beyond per year. Delivering large amounts of mass to orbit at low cost will be critical to deploying AI compute satellites at scale. We Believe Orbital AI Can Accelerate Time to Power and Reduce Token Costs. The Sun contains approximately 99.8% of the solar system's energy and offers what we believe is the only truly scalable solution to the challenge of accelerating demand for compute relative to terrestrial energy constraints. The logical path forward is to move power-intensive AI workloads into orbit, where solar energy is near-constant and uninterrupted. With such accessibility to energy, we believe that our launch business will enable us to consistently activate the highest performing hardware before our competitors without such access. We believe SpaceX is uniquely positioned to deploy and operate data centers in orbit that can eventually achieve a lower cost than terrestrial data centers over time due to our extreme vertically integrated approach across launch, satellite manufacturing at scale, network connectivity and terrestrial data center expertise. 20 Source: BCG, Breaking Barriers to Data Center Growth. -68- 20 ’ – rm ’ ’ rm rm rm ’ ’ 20


 
• Time to useful tokens on new generations of infrastructure. Although we have already demonstrated an ability to rapidly scale new generations of compute in terrestrial deployments, we believe orbital AI will accelerate our time to useful tokens on bleeding-edge AI infrastructure. Physical deployment of new hardware is expected to be enabled by our launch business, where we believe reusability and launch cost efficiency will drive rapid cycles of payload delivery. Rapid time to useful tokens on that hardware will be enabled by the Sun's near-constant, uninterrupted supply of power, which would circumvent terrestrial power infrastructure constraints such as power procurement, grid interconnections, and peunitting. As new generations of AI infrastructure continue to deliver step-function improvements in token efficiency, we believe that maintaining an AI fleet consistently at the bleeding edge of the frontier curve has the potential to deliver a sustainable cost per token advantage relative to our competitors. • Construction, power, and cooling infrastructure. In orbit, construction costs are replaced by launch costs and satellite production costs. We expect reusable launch systems and high flight cadence will significantly reduce the cost per kilogram to orbit, enabling more efficient deployment of compute payloads to orbit, and eventually approach the cost of fuel. We believe our advanced satellite manufacturing capabilities enable us to build AI compute satellites at scale and lower cost than competitors. Other terrestrial data center construction costs such as building the shell, MEP, and grid interconnection are not applicable in space. As a result, once Starship and our AI compute satellites are fully deployed at scale, we believe that the initial deployment costs of in-orbit compute in the aggregate will be less than construction costs of others' terrestrial data centers. • Cost to procure and service processors. The cost of processors is a significant cost for both terrestrial and orbital data centers. We do not believe that moving compute to space in and of itself will have a meaningful impact on the cost of procuring processors. However, we believe that diversifying our long- tem' access to the supply of processors, including through our Terafab initiative with Tesla and Intel, will be a key driver in reducing the overall cost of compute hardware over time. By combining internally manufactured, lower cost chips with those we source from third-party suppliers, we expect the overall cost of our processors to decline. In addition to reducing costs, we also expect that this hybrid sourcing strategy will help alleviate potential future chip shortages at SpaceX. In addition, we intend to conduct intensive pre-deployment testing to reduce the rate of chip failure in space, as we do not anticipate servicing or repairing processors in space. • Ongoing operations. The total cost of operating data centers is heavily influenced by energy, cooling, and distribution requirements. In orbit, chips are expected to be powered by solar energy which is low cost and unlimited, and we expect to leverage radiative cooling architectures, which incur no operating costs compared to liquid or air cooling. Our integrated, space-based Starlink network architecture also enables more cost efficient routing of data between compute clusters and to end users on a global basis. We Believe We Are Well-Positioned to Deliver Orbital AI Compute. We believe orbital AI compute is an incredibly difficult technical challenge that only we can solve at scale in the near teen. We believe we are the only company that has already accomplished the key technical challenges associated with evolving connectivity satellites into AI compute satellites. In our view, due to our proven experience, we are well-positioned to deliver a full-scale AI compute satellite constellation. Significant work remains, but we are confident in our leadership position. • We have unmatched satellite launch capabilities to enable deployment at scale. Our ability to launch mass at scale and low cost is our foundational competitive advantage. Deployment of 100 gigawatts per year via satellites carrying over 100 kilowatts of compute power per metric ton will require thousands of launches per year and the transport of approximately one million metric tons to orbit annually. The fully reusable nature of Starship positions us to be capable of launching this level of mass. We plan to leverage our "PEZ" dispenser system, an integrated payload deployment system for Starship, along with our experience in developing fully deployable single-unit systems that are designed to substantially reduce the risks associated with in-orbit assembly. Starlink Broadband V1 and V2 Mini satellites have already demonstrated launch survivability and high reliability under vibration, shock, g-loads, acoustic stress, and vacuum exposure, achieving 99.9% average uptime. Although introducing AI processors would traditionally increase component-level failure rates, we plan to subject compute hardware to extensive pre-deployment testing on Earth to identify early life failures before launch. • We have already solved many of the significant technical hurdles to evolving connectivity satellites into AI compute satellites. Through our leading expertise in connectivity satellites and Starlink's existing technical and operational capabilities — including constellation-scale satellite management, -69- ’ rm ’ rm el rm “ ” i ’ –


 
autonomous operations, over-the-air software updates, inter-satellite laser communications, mesh network deployment, radiation-hardened system design, proprietary chip development, and the ability to operate computers reliably in the space environment — we have already solved the hardest part in the development of AI compute satellites. AI compute satellites represent an evolution of spacecraft engineering already demonstrated at scale through Starlink's connectivity satellites, and we believe development of AI compute satellites will be easier for us than for anyone else. AI compute satellites must integrate high-density compute payloads developed with radiation-tolerant designs and components with high electrical power generation, advanced thelinal management, and inter satellite networking. To source the electricity needed to power our AI processors, we aim to continuously scale our existing space- grade solar technologies through insourced process development and build a constellation in dawn-dusk Sun-synchronous orbit that delivers near-constant solar exposure. We expect solar cells optimized for the space environment will be produced at a rapid rate, with early satellites generating 100 kilowatts of compute power and scaling from there. In orbit, thelinal control must be accomplished through radiation rather than convection and conduction. We plan to advance thelinal control systems — many of which have been proven on Starlink — by using radiators, vapor chambers, active cooling loops, and coatings to dissipate the heat generated by AI hardware in space's vacuum. We will also utilize inter-satellite lasers pioneered by Starlink for mesh networking at scale, creating coherent computing clusters across free space instead of wired connections used in terrestrial data centers. Our existing Starlink constellation, with over 23,000 inter-satellite lasers, will be a crucial enabler of orbital AI compute, as its global network allows data from our AI compute satellites in Sun-synchronous orbit to reach ground stations anywhere on Earth. The SpaceX AI compute satellites will be designed for high rate, automated production to enable the scale of satellites needed for the large amounts of compute planned in space. There are material differences between connectivity satellites and AI compute satellites. Connectivity satellites are primarily designed for communications, with substantial onboard equipment dedicated to phased-array antennas, radio systems, and data transmission. In contrast, AI compute satellites are optimized for high-perfounance computing. Key differences include significantly larger solar arrays to support higher power requirements, substantially larger radiators for thelinal management, different electronics centered on AI accelerators rather than communications processors, and the removal of much of the communications hardware. Our V3 satellite platfolin already incorporates proprietary chips, providing a strong foundation for the ability to operate AI-focused electronics in space, and we expect to begin deploying our orbital AI compute satellites as early as 2028. The primary remaining challenge is one of scale. For example, a deployment rate of approximately 10 gigawatts per year would require a materially lower manufacturing and launch cadence, which we believe would still enable a commercially attractive AI compute business with strong economic returns. While our long-teen vision includes the ambition of deploying up to 100 gigawatts of power to orbit annually, which would require the deployment of thousands of launches per year, assuming 100 kilowatts of compute power per metric ton and Starship capacity to orbit of 100 metric tons, we believe we can be economically successful at significantly more modest volumes. Our 100 gigawatt annual power deployment goal is based on reasoned engineering analyses and design parameters developed through our ongoing design and development work on next-generation AI compute satellites. These analyses are based on currently available space-grade solar technology and do not require fundamental technological advances beyond existing capabilities. Specifically, we expect these satellites to leverage our already-designed V3 satellite platfolin. The core V3 satellite design is complete, and the AI compute satellites are expected to generate substantially more power than V3 satellites. This perfoiinance is expected to be achieved primarily through the use of significantly larger solar arrays. These satellites are targeted to generate approximately 100 kW of compute power per ton, which initially will require approximately five times the solar array output compared to V3 satellite designs. We currently do not anticipate material supply constraints for space-based solar panels, as global production capacity, including through our vertical integration efforts, is believed to be sufficient to meet its requirements. We are actively developing the manufacturing, launch cadence, and operational capabilities that we believe would be needed to support such launch rates. The precise solar collection area, total system mass per satellite, and on-orbit assembly requirements associated with this goal continue to be refined as part of our ongoing engineering efforts. In general, the approach contemplates larger deployable solar arrays on each satellite, with no significant on-orbit assembly currently anticipated. -70- – i ’ rm rm rm – – ’ rm rm rm rm rm rm


 
• We will use our proven Starlink in-orbit technology to optimize our orbital AI compute. In order to operate orbital AI compute satellites, we plan to build on our vast experience of operating approximately 9,600 Starlink broadband and mobile satellites in LEO. In 2025 alone, Starlink satellites proactively performed over 1,000 automated collision avoidance maneuvers per day guided by this technology to safely and efficiently operate the constellation. This operating model gives us control over workload placement across Earth and space while maintaining resilience through redundancy and fail safe systems. To ensure optimized thermal management and power generation, we will design each satellite's solar arrays to face the sun for constant power while its housing radiator panels face cold deep space for radiative cooling. A high degree of controllability will allow the satellite to be optimized for brightness mitigation, disposal, and other modes of operation. As more advanced AI hardware becomes available, we plan to manage the lifecycle of deployed systems by shifting older hardware to lower intensity workloads as performance characteristics evolve, and retiring systems that are no longer needed through controlled end of life disposition, including transition to graveyard orbits where appropriate. These retirements may occur sooner than our estimates for the useful lives of our satellites, which estimates are based on engineering studies, historical on-orbit performance, propellant life, utilization patterns, design enhancements across generations, and planned transitions to newer satellite technology. Space based compute also introduces orbital debris risk, which we already manage at constellation scale through our autonomous collision avoidance system across Starlink. To date, we have not experienced any failures of our autonomous collision avoidance system that have resulted in satellite loss. • We can manufacture our AI compute constellations at scale with rapid upgrade cycles. We have built one of the largest satellite manufacturing operations in the world with standardized bus architectures, rapid iteration cycles, and automotive-style production lines, enabling us to evolve bus architecture and subsystem design with limited reliance on third-party suppliers. Our highly vertically integrated approach will be key to our mass-scaling efforts and should allow us to deploy the latest AI processors. Our ability to quickly develop and deploy new generations of AI compute to orbit will be a key advantage in maintaining frontier performance of the constellation. We believe SpaceX will be the first and only company to manufacture satellites at the scale of automotive manufacturing. • We are building chip manufacturing capabilities to scale our access to AI compute hardware. We announced a collaboration with Tesla in March 2026 to build the Terafab initiative with a long-term goal of producing one terawatt of compute hardware each year. Intel joined the project in April 2026 and is expected to contribute its expertise in designing, fabricating, and packaging ultra-high-performance chips to help Terafab scale. In connection with such collaboration, we have agreed with Tesla on a general framework for the future development of Terafab. Any specific projects undertaken pursuant to this framework will be subject to separate negotiations and agreements (including any development timelines, milestones and capital expenditures) and have not yet been determined. Our strategy for Terafab is to vertically integrate across design of lithography masks, fabrication of logic and memory chips, design of advanced packaging and rapidly test and iterate in order to improve chip design and performance. With this internal manufacturing capability, we plan to alleviate potential future chip shortages at SpaceX, especially as we develop orbital AI at scale, and design chips that are optimized for the space environment. We expect that our speed and cost advantage from vertical integration will allow us to scale efficiently in AI chip manufacturing. • We can leverage our terrestrial experience to build and operate compute clusters and AI workloads at scale. We believe our experience operating compute infrastructure on Earth provides the technical and operational foundation to extend these capabilities into orbit. For example, manufacturing and silicon defects in AI processors can cause failures early in life. We plan to subject compute hardware to extensive pre-deployment testing on Earth to identify early life failures before launch to reduce in-orbit disruption. Over time, we plan to design AI compute processors optimized for the space environment. Our operating experience will be critical in informing our orbital data center designs for highly reliable operations even with potential chip failures. This capability is further supported by our flexible allocation of AI workloads across compute clusters, enabling us to utilize orbital data centers for workloads without hardware reconfigurations or maintenance. For compute hardware that does fail, we plan to leverage existing Starlink fleet management software to reallocate traffic to other satellites and prevent cluster-level downtime. We further believe that our strong relationships with chip makers enhance our ability to build a well-functioning, integrated AI compute system in space. We Believe Our Infrastructure is a Distinct Advantage in Delivering Superior Al. We believe that the key constraints in the continued growth of AI are physical — chip manufacturing, data center infrastructure, and -71- it ’ i I –


 
power generation; the future of AI will be deteii_lined by the control of the physical stack. We believe no other AI company has better control over the full physical stack than SpaceX. We expect the combination of competitive cost per token, our ability to deploy and operate data centers in orbit, and our strength in connectivity to result in more scalable intelligence that is accessible globally at high speeds by way of the following structural advantages: • Time to power. If we are able to deploy our AI compute satellite constellation, we believe it will enable compute capacity to be deployed and expanded efficiently as capacity requirements grow. This approach will also allow us to deploy new generations of compute hardware in quicker succession relative to terrestrial approaches where data centers cannot be easily retrofitted for new compute hardware. Due to terrestrial retrofitting limitations, adding terrestrial capacity typically demands building large, new data centers designed for specific generations of compute hardware. This approach is usually burdened with long lead times for activities such as power procurement, utility grid interconnections, and peunitting before new computing hardware can generate useful tokens. We believe our orbital, modular approach will allow us to circumvent terrestrial power infrastructure constraints. • Highly scalable compute capacity. Unlike terrestrial facilities constrained by physical footprint and availability of power in a given location, orbital data centers leverage a decentralized mesh architecture. This peimits the aggregation of massive compute clusters interconnected over long distances by inter- satellite lasers pioneered by Starlink. Space offers effectively unlimited power and vast expanse to sustain uninterrupted operations as capacity grows. We believe this abundance of power and physical area will allow us to scale our connected compute capacity faster and far beyond levels that are terrestrially viable. • Low latency. Our satellite constellation provides a direct, orbital data path that circumvents the bottlenecks of terrestrial communications networks. This architecture is particularly suitable to support high-speed connectivity for latency-sensitive workloads, which we believe are increasingly valued in certain consumer- and enterprise-facing applications. • Global distribution. Because of the global coverage of our satellite constellation, not only can we deliver high-speed, ultra-low latency AI solutions, we can do so anywhere in the world. We believe our increasingly global network of Starlink satellites will enable us to deliver frontier intelligence, at high speed and reliability, to communities and economies around the world. Design and manufacture our own chips. Terafab aims to be the world's largest chip manufacturing facility, with the goal of achieving one terawatt of annual compute production capacity. While Terafab is intended to expand our internal chip manufacturing capabilities, we expect to continue sourcing a significant portion of our compute hardware from third-party suppliers. We view Terafab as complementary to these relationships, enabling us to augment our access to compute hardware at massive scale and further complete our highly vertically integrated compute platfolin by extending our control to the foundational chip layer. By developing end-to-end capabilities spanning the design of lithography masks, fabrication of logic and memory chips, and advanced packaging, all in a vertically integrated closed-loop single plant, we will be able to more rapidly iterate to improve chip design and perfoimance. We plan to design chips that are optimized for the space environment. This collaboration directly enables our planned orders-of-magnitude increases in AI compute deployment in orbit which would be constrained by pure reliance on external foundries. Leveraging shared engineering resources, intellectual property, and infrastructure across Tesla and SpaceX, as well as Intel's proposed contribution of its expertise in designing, fabricating and packaging ultra-high-perfoimance chips at scale, Terafab creates powerful ecosystem synergies that accelerate innovation cycles and reduce costs. Just as we manufacture approximately 80% of Starship in-house, enabling it to be the world's most powerful and, eventually, the most cost-effective launch vehicle through full and rapid reusability, we expect significant speed and cost advantages from Terafab's vertical integration. We believe this will provide us with a critical competitive advantage in the race to scale AI infrastructure, especially as we begin our orbital AI compute satellite deployments. 4.3.6 Industry Overview We are focused on three rapidly evolving industries: space, connectivity, and AI. Technological advancements and breakthrough innovation are enabling what we believe is the next great economic frontier, as progress across space launch, global communications, frontier models, AI compute, robotics, and automation reshape what is possible on and off Earth. There are several key trends driving the growth and evolution of these industries in which we operate: • Reusable launch and industrialized space operations are materially reducing the cost of access to orbit, increasing mass carried per launch, and enabling high-cadence deployment of space-based infrastructure; -72- rm rm r ’ rm r l’ r ’ ’


 
• High-volume satellite manufacturing, combined with rapid constellation refresh cycles, is expanding the ability for ubiquitous connectivity across unconnected, underconnected, and mobile "dead zone" areas; and • AI, automation, and robotics are accelerating engineering iteration cycles, streamlining operations, and revolutionizing complex construction, reducing reliance on scarce specialized labor while delivering faster, more precise, and cost-optimized infrastructure. 4.3.6.1 The Space Industry For most of the space age — dating back to the first launches in the 1950s — spaceflight was shaped by onerous regulatory requirements and government budgets that determined launch cadence. The prevailing cost- plus procurement model offered limited incentives to reduce costs or increase launch cadence, creating an operating environment that constrained technological innovation. Government agencies served as the primary launch services providers and the industry remained stagnant for decades. According to NA SA, until the 2000s and the introduction of the Falcon 9 rocket by SpaceX, global commercial launch activity averaged 25 to 35 launches per year. 21 As a result, the space industry remained a niche domain with limited ability to support large commercial markets or scaled space-based infrastructure. During this period, satellites — which comprised the majority of launch payload — were typically bespoke, expensive systems requiring significant non-recurring engineering that consisted of development cycles that were measured in decades. Launch vehicles were designed to be largely expendable and optimized for single-mission use, reinforcing a low-throughput ecosystem that lacked flexibility, scalability, and responsiveness to evolving customer requirements. The need for more advanced launch capabilities became clear as space-based use cases expanded to include communications, navigation, Earth observation, environmental monitoring, scientific research, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance, and access to the International Space Station. In 2006, NASA awarded SpaceX, along with Rocketplane Kistler, the landmark Commercial Orbital Transportation Services contract that heralded the age of commercial space launch, marking a shift toward a more scalable approach to accessing space. This inflection point catalyzed a transition toward systems designed for more frequent operations, lower cost, and greater operational flexibility. Advances in high cadence, reliable, and affordable access to space — driven largely by SpaceX — have expanded space from a purely mission-driven activity to a fully industrialized and commercial sector capable of supporting and enabling industries far beyond traditional launch and satellites. SpaceX's advancements reduced the cost of access to orbit from tens of thousands of dollars per kilogram to just a few thousand dollars per kilogram. 21 Source: Nasa, Large Reduction in Space Launch Cost. -73- ‑ “ ” – – 21 – – – – ’ 21

Commercial operators have launched thousands of satellites since 2015 as constellation architectures scale and diversify. The number of active maneuverable satellites in orbit has grown from less than 1,000 in 2015 to approximately 12,700 as of March 31, 2026. With approximately 9,600 Starlink broadband and mobile satellites in LEO as of March 31, 2026, SpaceX owns and operates approximately 75% of all active maneuverable satellites.22 Additionally, launch activity has continued to grow, with approximately 220 metric tons of payload launched to orbit in 2012 increasing to approximately 2,600 metric tons in 2025, of which over 80% was launched by SpaceX.23 Government demand is rising in parallel: according to the Space Foundation, excluding classified spending, U.S. Government space spending in 2024 totaled approximately $77 billion. Notably, U.S. national security customers have also awarded approximately $13.7 billion across the National Security Space Launch (NSSL) Program's Phase 3 Lane 2 contracts through 2032, supporting approximately 54 missions from 2025 to 2032, with the overall Phase 3 manifest nearly doubling Phase 2's manifest to 84 missions. Amid escalating geopolitical tensions that further underscore the critical role of resilient launch infrastructure, we believe government space budgets around the world are positioned for sustained, long-tell' growth. On the back of dramatically reduced launch cost pioneered by SpaceX over the past two decades, the global economy is reorganizing around a new domain: space. We believe the development of a lunar economy will be central to unlocking the full potential of this new domain and advancing the long-teen transition to a multiplanetary civilization. 4.3.6.2 The Connectivity Industry Modern life relies on connectivity. Over the past several decades, the technologies that underpin global connectivity have evolved rapidly, reshaping the way individuals, families, and organizations communicate, collaborate, and access infounation. Despite remarkable technological advancements, terrestrial networks remain constrained by the same inherent structural limitations that have hindered them since their inception. According to the Global Satellite Operators Association, terrestrial network infrastructure only covers approximately 20% of global land mass, resulting in significant unserved and underserved regions across both developed and developing economies.

terrestrial connectivity gap spans areas that are remote, difficult to build in, or economically impractical to serve — and also includes mobile "dead zones" within otherwise well-connected areas and in urban markets. According to the J.D. Power U.S. Wireless Network Quality Perfounance Study, U.S. wireless customers experienced service problems in approximately one out of every 11 mobile interactions, even in well-connected areas. As demand for ubiquitous, high-reliability connectivity continues to rise, terrestrial networks alone are increasingly unable to bridge the widening gap between user demand and available coverage. The development of large-scale LEO constellations represented a paradigm shift, breaking from the long- standing dependence on terrestrial networks for global connectivity. Deployed at unprecedented scale — such as through SpaceX's Starlink and Mobile constellations — these satellites can provide high-speed, low-latency service that integrates seamlessly with terrestrial infrastructure. This evolution has transformed satellite connectivity from a solution of last resort into a core pillar of resilient, ubiquitous global communications. 4.3.6.2.1 Consumer Broadband Residential internet access began with the dial-up connection in the late 1990s with maximum speeds of .056 Mbps, when early users relied on narrowband copper phone lines to connect. As demand for speed and reliability grew, dial-up gave way to DSL, cable, and eventually fiber, each increasing bandwidth and enabling more connected devices. According to the Speedtest Global Index, the global average broadband download speed has increased to approximately 120 Mbps. Satellite internet also emerged in the 1990s through geostationary orbit (GEO) systems that extended coverage to remote and unconnected regions — beginning with early offerings such as Hughesnet's first satellite service DirecPC, which provided downstream speeds of roughly 400 kbps compared to dial-up averages of 28.8 kbps — but these systems were constrained by limited throughput and high latency, making it difficult to keep pace as consumer requirements evolved. Starlink satellites operate in LEO, substantially closer to the Earth's surface than traditional geostationary communications satellites. This architecture reduces signal latency and is designed to support broadband connectivity in remote and underserved areas. Each launch of additional Starlink satellites increases the overall capacity of the network, which provides service globally. In today's digital landscape, consumers increasingly rely on seamless, high-perfoiuiance connectivity to power all aspects of connected life — from every day digital services to demanding applications that require high throughput, consistent perfoiinance, and low latency. These needs are particularly challenging to satisfy in regions where terrestrial networks are limited, degraded, or unavailable due to prohibitive deployment costs, rugged terrain, low population density, or outdated infrastructure. Consequently, consumer broadband has evolved into a multifaceted ecosystem, where diverse access technologies converge and providers compete based on superior reliability, consistent perfoimance, and an exceptional overall user experience. Consumer demand for data is surging at a pace that terrestrial infrastructure has struggled to match. According to International Data Corporation's Global DataSphere, in 2025, global data generation was estimated to have reached more than 585 exabytes of per day — up from approximately 10.8 exabytes per day in 2010 — reflecting an immense escalation in consumption. With fixed broadband connections projected to reach two billion by 2030 according to Ericsson, and terrestrial expansion often economically unfeasible in remote and challenging regions, only space-based systems can deliver truly global, ubiquitous, high-throughput coverage capable of supporting this explosive growth in data demand. 4.3.6.2.2 Enterprise and Government Broadband Enterprise broadband internet has evolved alongside residential internet, beginning with fixed private lines that connected offices and infrastructure. As businesses adopted real-time, distributed workflows, they needed secure, low-latency connectivity across multiple sites and mobile assets. Mobility became essential in sectors like manufacturing, transportation, and logistics, extending connectivity demands beyond fixed locations into dynamic environments that terrestrial networks often cannot support reliably or economically. Enterprises now expect seamless, uninterrupted perfoimance with instant failover where terrestrial systems are unavailable or unstable — driving adoption of hybrid architectures that combine ground networks with space-based solutions. Enterprise connectivity demand continues to rise as organizations digitize operations and rely on real-time, cloud-based workflows that require secure, low-latency connectivity across distributed sites and mobile environments. This is particularly true in the case of aviation, maritime, and land mobility applications, where aircraft, vessels, and ground fleets are inherently mobile and therefore unable to depend on continuous terrestrial network coverage for connectivity. These platfouns increasingly require resilient communications to support flight and voyage operations, crew applications, passenger internet access, telematics, and port or shipboard logistics. In aviation, legacy GEO-based systems that are still prevalent across most major commercial fleets typically -75- – “ ” rm – ’ – – ’ – ’ ’ rm – rm r ’ – – l r – ‑ ‑ ‑ rm


 
provide low Mbps speeds and significantly higher latency, often exceeding 500 milliseconds, falling well short of the approximately 100 Mbps throughput and sub-50 milliseconds latency that today's applications — such as streaming, cloud services, and real-time collaboration — increasingly demand. Therefore, there is a need for modern LEO-powered in-flight connectivity systems — such as Starlink Broadband — that can deliver passenger download speeds exceeding 400 Mbps with latency as low as 21 milliseconds. Terrestrial networks cannot meet these evolving demands where deployment is costly, complex, and slowed by regulatory constraints, and legacy satellite solutions have not delivered the latency or consistency needed for enterprise-grade applications, with average terrestrial ISP download speeds at 120 Mbps and average latency from 7-34 milliseconds. Defense and civil agencies similarly require secure, resilient, and global connectivity, often operating in contested or infrastructure-poor regions where terrestrial networks are unavailable or vulnerable. As the battlefield becomes increasingly connected, the need for robust, persistent connectivity across all domains is more urgent than ever. Modern missions depend on high-throughput, low-latency connectivity for command and control, autonomous systems, emergency response, and humanitarian operations, driving demand for architectures that maintain perfoiinance where terrestrial systems fail. Substantial government investment into mission-critical, space-based communication services illustrates the institutional reliance on LEO architecture for defense applications. High-throughput, low-latency LEO constellations add a new architectural layer that enhances redundancy, operational continuity, and flexibility across mission sets. There is an increasing need for purpose- built secure platforms — such as Starshield, that can provide encrypted, high-assurance communications and modular payload integration — further expand the utility of space-based connectivity for defense, civil, and national resilience needs. Together, these advances position space as the foundational component of future mission-critical communications architectures. 4.3.6.2.3 Satellite-to-Mobile Service Since the early rise of mobile phones, terrestrial networks have expanded at immense cost and increasing density to support successive generations of cellular technology — from the primarily voice-centric networks of the 1980s to today's high-speed 5G data networks. These investments have enabled much of the global population to become well-connected, yet the capital-intensive nature of terrestrial build-outs has resulted in vast geographic mobile "dead zones" where coverage remains too expensive or is nonexistent. In many regions particularly those that are remote or sparsely populated, extending towers is economically impractical for MNOs, resulting in large segments of the population with limited or no access to reliable connectivity. Early satellite-based cellular options, beginning in the 1980s with dedicated satellite phones, helped fill these gaps but required bulky hardware and carried high usage cost, limiting them to narrow and mission-driven use cases. As consumer expectations for ubiquitous coverage have grown, MNOs face structural limits in closing these "dead zones" with terrestrial infrastructure alone, making LEO-based augmentation the most viable path to continuous, reliable mobile connectivity at global scale. Early satellite-to-mobile services (i.e., those connecting directly to standard smartphones) emerged in the 2020s with support for basic messaging and, in some cases, voice in areas without terrestrial coverage. These offerings provided more contiguous communication for safety, continuity, and remote operations. However, they were introduced at the same time mobile data consumption was accelerating dramatically, and consumer expectations for "always-connected" devices were rising. As a result, satellite-to-mobile technology is now evolving beyond emergency-only communication. It is shifting toward enabling everyday smartphones to remain seamlessly connected when outside traditional cellular or Wi-Fi range, integrating satellite connectivity into routine mobile usage, rather than treating it as a contingency layer. At the same time, telecom operators have been reducing capital expenditures amid slower revenue growth, weaker monetization, and declining returns on invested capital — pressures that have limited their willingness to maintain historically high levels of network deployment. These shifts are also increasing demand for harmonized, scalable spectrum allocations capable of supporting higher-capacity satellite-to-mobile services without interfering with terrestrial networks, with the potential to add an incremental $1.4 trillion of economic growth over the next 10 years, as forecasted by Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association. These industry shifts have opened the door for deeper collaboration among satellite operators, MNOs, carriers, spectrum owners, device manufacturers, and regulators. As satellite network perfoiinance continues to improve and these partnerships expand, satellite-to-mobile offerings — such as Starlink Mobile — are poised to evolve from a "backup" layer into a meaningful complement to terrestrial networks, extending coverage and enhancing overall network resilience and perfoiinance. -76- ’ – – – – ‑ rm – – ‑ – ’ ‑ ‑ ‑ “ ” “ ” “ ” – rm – – “ ” rm


 
4.3.6.3 The Al Industry For the first time, we are creating systems that do more than simply amplify or transmit human-generated knowledge. These systems can reason, learn, and generate new knowledge autonomously — synthesizing information, foaming hypotheses, and in some domains even making original discoveries. In doing so, they augment, accelerate, and will likely surpass unaided human cognition. This represents a profound shift: we are moving from tools that simply extend the mind to autonomous agents and companions that actively participate in the act of knowing. Over the past decade, the convergence of big data, advances in AI hardware, and the breakthrough development of LLMs have transformed AI from a speculative academic field into a foundational driver of the modern economy. 4.3.6.3.1 AI Compute Massive demand for frontier AI models is accelerating the build-out of AI infrastructure at a pace and scale with few historical precedents. Meeting projected AI needs will require $7 trillion in global data center investment through 2030,24 with generative AI workloads expected to account for roughly 70% of total data-center power demand by the end of the decade. Each new generation of frontier models requires exponentially greater compute, following well-established scaling laws that link model performance to the volume and quality of training data, parameter count, and total compute expected. The rise of agentic AI and the potential emergence of AGI are expected to further amplify inference workloads, driving a step-function increase in compute requirements and the corresponding data center capacity needed to support them. Frontier AI has become fundamentally infrastructure-constrained. Only operators with access to massive amounts of power, very large GPU clusters and tightly integrated training infrastructure can train cutting-edge models, and these systems exhibit non-linear performance advantages that compound over time. Compute infrastructure scale helps determine model iteration speed, model quality, and capital efficiency — making infrastructure itself a critical capability. 4.3.6.3.2 AI Frontier Models A new class of frontier models has emerged, which includes LLMs and multimodal models. LLMs are neural network-based models trained on massive datasets to interpret user questions and generate responses to highly complex questions. LLMs can synthesize existing research, propose new ideas, and communicate in a natural language that requires no programming expertise by the user. Demand for these tools has been explosive — according to a YouGov survey, approximately 60% of Americans have used AI tools since December 2024, and 34% use AI tools at least weekly. Multimodal models are AI systems that can process, understand, and generate outputs across multiple types of data simultaneously — such as text, images, audio, video, and sometimes other modalities — rather than being limited to just one (like text-only language models). Multimodal models offer several key benefits over traditional unimodal (e.g., text-only) systems by processing and integrating multiple data types like text, images, audio, video, and sometimes sensor data simultaneously. They provide richer contextual understanding, capturing relationships and nuances across modalities that are invisible in isolation, leading to more accurate predictions and reasoning. AI frontier models are shaped by the values, objectives, and design choices of their creators. Model intelligence and performance reflect decisions around data curation, training methodologies, alignment frameworks, and system constraints, resulting in different reasoning styles, interpretations, and responses across models. Therefore, values can be embedded in the technology, influencing accuracy, logic, and utility of the model outputs and how well models can serve end users. Following rapid frontier model innovation and broad adoption of chat-based tools, organizations are now beginning to deploy agentic systems — AI that can use tools and operate with limited supervision. This marks the beginning of what we believe will be a broader transition from co-pilots to agentic systems that enable high- complexity workflows and create materially higher inference demand. 4.3.6.3.3 Consumer and Enterprise Applications Advances in digital communication have reshaped how infoiivation is created, shared, and consumed, laying the foundation for today's social media platforms. These platforms have become essential channels for digital advertising by combining large-scale user engagement with targeted content and ad distribution. Recent advances in AI are further strengthening advertising, allowing enterprises to optimize campaigns and measure 24 Source: McKinsey, Cost of Compute. -77- I – r 24 – – – – – rm ’ ‑ 24


 
outcomes. At the same time, consumer expectations for AI-powered tools are rising, with users seeking timely, accurate and trustworthy information across an expanding universe of digital content. We believe the ongoing convergence of consumer platforms, consumer AI, and integrated digital services will accelerate the emergence of super-app ecosystems that combine communication, content creation, information, commerce, and banking within a single platform. These trends are expected to expand the role of internet platforms as distribution channels and support next-generation AI-enabled applications and advertising solutions. For enterprises and governments, frontier models and agentic AI — autonomous systems capable of multi- step reasoning and independent task execution — are beginning to manage increasingly complex processes and workflows. As of February 2026, more than 80% of Fortune 500 companies were using AI active agents. Entire industries are being reshaped by AI-driven applications, including agentic commerce (personalized AI-directed shopping), vibe coding (software development with minimal or no human-written code), and autonomous driving for vehicles. The ultimate frontier in AI is human augmentation: creating systems that amplify and multiply human reasoning, creativity, decision-making, and productivity, enabling people to perform highly complex tasks with unprecedented speed, scale, and insight. By enhancing how humans think, learn, and interact, such systems act as cognitive multipliers, supercharging individual and collective capabilities far beyond biological limits. As AI evolves, we expect both consumer platforms and enterprises to adopt increasingly agentic systems that serve as powerful extensions of human intelligence. These tools will orchestrate multi-step workflows, interact seamlessly with business applications, and accelerate operational processes, with humans at the center of judgment, creativity, and strategy. Emerging efforts in enterprise AI illustrate how future systems could coordinate entire business functions as force multipliers — dramatically expanding what a human team can achieve with minimal scaling friction and maximal leverage. Human augmentation also offers a transformative solution to the escalating effort required for breakthroughs in technology and beyond. For example, the human effort needed to sustain Moore's Law (chip density doubling approximately every two years) has increased eighteenfold since the early 1970s; AI augmentation could reverse this trend by empowering engineers, researchers, and innovators to iterate faster, explore more possibilities, and achieve exponential progress with smaller, core teams of experts. 4.3. 7 Our Strengths 4.3.7.1 Global Leadership in Orbital Launch Services Our ability to reliably, quickly, and cost efficiently launch rockets at scale into space is our core competitive advantage that enables other parts of our business. Our launch capabilities form the foundation of our orbital infrastructure and have created new multi-trillion-dollar opportunities in space, global connectivity, and AI. We believe no other launch provider is competitive at this scale today, nor is likely to become so in the near term. Our fleet of 24 flight-proven, reusable rockets and our growing share of total mass delivered to orbit has increased every year since 2021. Reusability completely changes the economics of space access. Qualified for 40 launches, our reusable rockets can fly multiple times with only minimal refurbishment between missions, sharply lowering the cost per launch, while boosting our launch rate, asset use, and overall efficiency compared to traditional expendable rockets. As a result, we can offer competitive launch prices, rapidly deploy our own satellites and infrastructure, and make it easier and cheaper for us to pursue new opportunities requiring orbital access. Our higher launch rates and reusability also create a virtuous cycle: more flights lead to faster improvements in design, manufacturing, and operations through accumulated experience. Additionally, not only did we demonstrate what we believe to be at least a 10-year advantage over the rest of the industry when we first landed our Falcon 9 booster back from space in 2015, but we have continued to invest significantly in further increasing our lead by pursuing full and rapid reusability at scale, including investing over $15 billion in our next- generation rocket, Starship. 4.3.7.2 Unrivaled Satellite and Connectivity Platform across Design, Manufacturing, Deployment, and Operations We are able to design, engineer, and manufacture what we believe to be the world's most advanced satellites at scale, enabling the creation and scaling of new businesses leveraging this core satellite technology platform, including: Starlink Broadband, our space-based internet broadband service; Starlink Mobile, our global satellite-to-mobile service; and emerging AI initiatives. Unlike traditional satellite manufacturers that rely on fragmented supply chains and low-volume production, we have built an integrated satellite platform that spans architecture, chip design, software, power systems, and final assembly. As we rapidly iterate on our next- -78- ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ – – – ’ tf ’


 
generation satellites in-house, some others are contracting outsourced manufacturers to build satellite architectures with capacity comparable to satellites that we retired years ago. As of March 31, 2026, our constellation also incorporates over 23,000 inter-satellite lasers that create a dynamic mesh network in space, enabling data traffic to route through orbit rather than relying solely on terrestrial backhaul infrastructure. By controlling satellite design, production, launch and operations, we can tailor payloads, networking capabilities, and power requirements to support new use cases. For example, our AI compute constellations will leverage our core satellite technologies already developed for our existing Starlink constellations. We will build new satellites that can host processors for high-density compute payloads, offer enhanced power generation with larger solar panels and storage systems, and enable higher-capacity networking capabilities to support low-latency workloads in orbit. Our high-throughput manufacturing capabilities — combined with our launch capabilities — enable us to produce and deploy thousands of satellites per year, an uneconomic proposition for those lacking an ability to deliver substantial mass into space. This capability accelerates our deployment timelines and allows us to commercialize entire constellations with capital efficiency that we believe is difficult to replicate. Our global connectivity platform, Starlink, is powered by the world's largest LEO constellation and supported by our vertically integrated launch and satellite manufacturing capabilities to enable the delivery of high-speed, low-latency broadband and mobile connectivity to homes and businesses everywhere in the world. Our vertically integrated model allows us to provide reliable service with unmatched speed and cost across geographies where traditional terrestrial infrastructure has been limited, uneconomical, or unavailable. 4.3.7.3 Truth-Seeking AI Model Enhanced by Real-Time Data AI frontier models are shaped by the values, objectives, and design choices of their creators that influence accuracy, logic, and utility of the model outputs. We believe Grok represents a differentiated approach to AI, grounded in a core objective of truth seeking and powered by continuous, proprietary access to real-time data inflows through its integration with X. With approximately 350 million daily posts, X enables freshness, relevance, and contextual awareness for Grok that we believe is a competitive differentiator. This direct, real-time access to the information and human discourse on X enhances Grok's truth-seeking capabilities by grounding outputs in up-to-date knowledge and diverse viewpoints. This architecture reflects our core philosophy that maximizing truth seeking — through the active, relentless pursuit of what is objectively true about reality, grounded in evidence, logic, empirical data, and first principles thinking — drives superior model outputs and higher utility intelligence. By combining our truth-seeking model with proprietary access to one of the world's largest real-time information platforms, we believe Grok can deliver the most objective and relevant insights and best serve high-frequency, high-value use cases across consumer and enterprise AI applications. 4.3.7.4 Extreme Vertical Integration Enabling High Velocity and Superior Cost Efficiency at Scale While conventional aerospace manufacturing relies heavily on fragmented and outsourced supply chains, we operate with extreme vertical integration. By designing and manufacturing a significant portion of our components in-house, we bypass many of the slow, bloated sourcing channels that structurally constrain the rest of the industry. For example, approximately 80% of Starship, SpaceX's next-generation launch vehicle, is manufactured in-house. Our vertical integration allows us to achieve iterative cycles in weeks, compared to years for some legacy companies, enabling us to build newer, more technologically advanced products faster than many of our competitors. We believe this technological and logistical gap is widening meaningfully as our speed and cost advantage compound. Our vertical integration extends beyond design and manufacturing — it permeates our entire business model, encompassing engineering, deployment, and operations. According to our assessment, we are the only company building integrated hardware and software infrastructure of the future across space, connectivity and AI. This end-to-end control allows us to deliver value through structural advantages in speed, cost and quality. Our strong belief in the benefits of extreme vertical integration is further exemplified by our acquisition of xAI. We not only develop best-in-class models to support the application layer of AI, where we leverage real- time data ingestion from X (subject to some limitations for certain content), but we also own and operate the physical compute infrastructure required to train and run inference on those models, providing a substantial cost and speed advantage. Through our Terafab initiative together with Tesla and Intel, we intend to further extend our vertical integration to chip design and manufacturing to alleviate potential future chip shortages at SpaceX, optimize compute performance, and reduce overall compute costs. Intel will contribute its expertise in designing, fabricating and packaging ultra-high-performance chips to help Terafab scale. This highly vertically integrated approach allows us to train and iterate our frontier models at high velocity, accelerating development cycles, -79- – – ’ ’ – – ’ erti el ’ –


 
eliminating external bottlenecks, and driving rapid, continuous improvements in model perfoli_lance. Compute availability is also critical for running more complex workloads and delivering higher performance inference at scale. As AI adoption accelerates and demand for low-latency, high-throughput inference increases, we believe operators with the ability to support and efficiently allocate compute across both training and inference workloads are best positioned to win the AI race. Our human augmentation solutions are being designed to capitalize on this shift, enabling us to deliver superior performance for our customers. This advantage of vertical integration exists in both a terrestrial context, where we own our own data centers and the associated power infrastructure, and eventually in a space-based context, where we are planning to build our own orbital AI compute infrastructure. The key constraints in the continued growth of AI are physical — chip manufacturing, data center infrastructure, and power generation. Differentiation is rapidly shifting from model architecture alone to AI compute scale, cost efficiency, power availability, and speed of deployment. We believe that physical infrastructure, not models, will be the primary competitive differentiator for AI companies, and we believe no other AI company has better control over the full physical infrastructure than SpaceX. 4.3.7.5 Unique Ability to Scale New Trillion-Dollar Markets Across Space, Connectivity, and AI We believe we have a distinct ability to identify, activate, and commercialize new multi-trillion-dollar markets that did not previously exist. Historically, space access was impaired by high launch costs, low flight cadence, and limited demand. While such constraints may limit others' ability to access space at a scale, our ability to build large-scale and complex hardware infrastructure is a meaningful competitive advantage. By pioneering the world's first and only fleet of reusable rockets at scale, we revolutionized space access through dramatically lower cost and unmatched reliability. Lowering costs by orders of magnitude does not just expand the launch market, it enables the creation of entirely new industries on Earth and in space that have historically been technologically and economically infeasible for others to access historically. When we have identified a new trillion-dollar market opportunity to pursue, we design a solution rooted in the same world-class engineering and first-principles thinking that has driven our technological breakthroughs and success to date. Our first trillion-dollar market was connectivity: we founded Starlink, a satellite service supported by our low-latency, high-speed LEO constellation. Starlink required the rapid, low-cost deployment of millions of kilograms of hardware into orbit, a feat economically impossible to solve for anyone lacking our foundational launch capabilities. Our Starlink constellation powers a global connectivity platform capable of supporting the world's largest and most advanced space-based internet broadband service and satellite-to-mobile service, enabling high-speed internet access to homes, enterprises, governments, and mobile users around the world. We believe our next trillion-dollar market is AI compute, and we expect to leverage our rockets and satellites for massive orbital deployments of AI infrastructure. We believe this AI compute infrastructure will help us develop and monetize the Grok model faster than other AI companies that are dependent on finite sources of power on Earth. According to our assessment, no other company has built the capabilities to create value across all these end markets at scale. In addition, we believe we are poised to catalyze transfoi lative breakthroughs in other industries on Earth and in space such as long haul point-to-point terrestrial travel, in-orbit manufacturing, passenger and cargo transportation to the Moon and Mars, manufacturing and energy production on the Moon and Mars, and asteroid mining. In particular, we believe that if we achieve our goal of establishing a lunar presence, it will potentially enable terawatt-scale annual AI compute growth, support deeper space exploration and industrialization, and serve as a stepping stone to establishing a civilization on Mars. As we continue to scale and expand into new trillion- dollar markets, we expect our more mature businesses will continue to generate substantial cash flows, enabling us to reinvest in emerging opportunities. 4.3.7.6 Business Models that Are Incredibly Difficult to Replicate Our business model is simple to describe: leverage our launch capabilities to reduce the cost of access to space, apply first-principles thinking and world-class engineering to solve large structural constraints, vertically integrate across the value chain, continuously improve cost efficiency and throughput, and reinvest cash flow to expand our capabilities and create new markets. While simple to describe, we believe this model is extraordinarily difficult to replicate. We believe no other organization can execute this combination of reusable orbital launch systems at industrial scale, breakthrough engineering designs with reliable high-volume manufacturing, full stack proprietary software, and end-to-end operational control. These capabilities reinforce each other, and our vertical integration enables faster innovation cycles and structural cost advantages that widen our competitive advantage. Our business model has allowed us to build a diversified portfolio of complementary businesses and revenue streams from a common technological foundation.

commercial and government customers, while also serving as the backbone for our Connectivity segment which generates highly predictable and recurring subscription revenue from Starlink broadband consumer, enterprise, and government customers, as well as Starlink Mobile subscribers. The result is a powerful, self-reinforcing value creation cycle: success in one business fuels faster growth in the others, enabling reinvestment into the next frontier. We believe this model has the potential to create compounding value across our ecosystem, allowing our lead to grow and become more durable over time. 4.3.7.7 Mission-Driven Culture and World-Class Talent We have the benefit of being founded and led by Elon Musk, one of the great visionaries of our generation. We believe that our ability to attract and retain world-class technical and engineering talent is a significant competitive advantage. Our founding goal of making life multiplanetary serves as the ultimate mission- driven filter and retention tool, which has only been enhanced by xAI's truth-seeking mission of understanding the universe. Top engineers are drawn to SpaceX to work on some of the hardest, most consequential problems facing humanity — doing things that have never been done before, like landing and re-using rockets, working towards making humanity multiplanetary, and gaining a better understanding of the mysteries of the universe through AI. They are also drawn to our intense, engineering-led, first-principles culture. We reinforce this culture through "The Algorithm," a five-step iterative process that emphasizes making the requirements less dumb, deleting unnecessary processes or parts (embracing the principle that the best part is no part), only then optimizing what remains, accelerating cycle time, and automating only proven processes. Our organizational philosophy embraces failure as an essential learning opportunity and maintains a relentless focus on efficiency and speed, enabling rapid iteration and repeatable execution on the hardest technical problems. To this end, our engineering- oriented organization maintains access to some of the world's most selective talent pool. In 2025, we accepted under 2% of our engineering applicants, reflecting our ability to be highly selective and hire among the best talent in the industry. We also foster commitment by aligning employee interests with organizational success: our broad- based employee ownership program ensures that those who help us build the future are also direct beneficiaries of our success. This commitment to quality and mission results in exceptional employee loyalty, reflected by an average tenure across our broader SpaceX leadership team of 12 years. 4.3.8 Our Growth Strategies We have created what we believe to be the world's most ambitious vertically integrated innovation engine that captures significant growth across three domains: Space, Connectivity, and AI. While our Space segment provides us with a foundational competitive advantage that enables all other parts of our business, our Connectivity and AI segments are expected to be the primary driver of revenue growth in the near term. In the next few years, we are focused on increasing the monetization of our existing Connectivity infrastructure and our existing AI user base. We also intend to continue to build out our AI infrastructure, which we expect to enable growth as we address the significant AI market opportunity. Our growth strategy aligns with our value creation cycle where we identify emerging opportunities, invest in innovation, rigorously test and iterate, launch new offerings, and generate strong cash flows to fuel the next wave of breakthroughs. 4.3.8.1 Space Increase launch payload capacity. We plan to drive meaningful growth in payload delivered to orbit (mass to orbit) through higher launch cadence and increased payload per launch, while enhancing launch efficiency and reducing costs. Our next-generation fully and rapidly reusable Starship V3 vehicle is designed to carry 100 metric tons to Earth's orbit in a reusable configuration, driving substantial improvements in payload capacity per launch, while enabling significantly more frequent flights, at unparalleled cost efficiency. To date, we have executed 12 Starship flight tests, with our 12th fl ight test in May 2026 debuting the next generation Starship vehicle and Super Heavy booster, powered by the next evolution of our Raptor engine and launching from a newly designed pad at Starbase. We expect Starship to commence payload delivery to orbit in the second half of 2026. We have achieved innovative milestones, such as the creation of booster catches using "chopstick" arms that facilitate rapid refurbishment and reuse, including launching multiple times per day. To enable a more frequent launch cadence and overall greater payload delivery, we are also expanding our ground launch infrastructure, including investing in additional pads, on-site propellant production, and other support facilities, and investing in future generations of Starship, which could carry 200 metric tons in capacity, potentially as soon as Starship V4. We expect these efforts to continue to drive launch payload growth that is expected to provide the foundational capacity needed to scale our Starlink Broadband and Starlink Mobile constellations that underpin our Connectivity platform. Our growing payload capacity is also intended to underpin the deployment of orbital AI compute that will accelerate our AI business, as well as benefit third-party customers who use our launch offerings. -81- or ’ – “ ” ’ ’ t it ’ “ ”


 
Establish the lunar economy. Advancing access to the lunar surface represents an important next step in the evolution of our Space segment and is a prerequisite for long-term commercialization beyond Earth. We are focused on developing the capability to transport significant amounts of cargo and crew to the lunar surface in a repeatable and economically viable manner. We believe this capability will also enable creating a petawatt-scale AI constellation through the use of lunar satellite production and a lunar mass driver for launch activities. By leveraging Starship's expected fully and rapidly reusable capabilities and in-space refueling, we expect to materially reduce the cost of lunar missions relative to historical norms. Our initial efforts will prioritize lunar cargo landings and returning Americans to the Moon, followed by expanded crewed missions that we believe can establish a continuous flow of cargo and humans between Earth and the lunar surface. We believe that the foundation of a commercial lunar economy begins with achieving infrastructure development, lunar resource utilization, and high bandwidth communications at scale. This requires the ability to mine, extract and process raw material for the production of solar power on the lunar surface. Combined with the ability to locally produce water and fuel, we believe these capabilities would enable sustained lunar operations, support lunar exploration, and provide the foundation for humanity's permanent presence on the Moon. The lunar base would then allow sustained, high volume testing of new technologies in a space environment much closer to Earth than deep space. We intend to establish lunar-based manufacturing capabilities, including factories to produce large-scale AI compute satellites. We believe we can efficiently launch our satellites at scale, namely due to the potential use of a lunar mass driver that is capable of high-frequency, low-cost launches of satellites from the lunar surface. By shifting energy and material and mass-intensive satellite and solar manufacturing activities off Earth that leverage sustainable power generation and the Moon's low gravity, we aim to significantly reduce costs and terrestrial resource constraints. We expect to use raw materials from the Moon to construct most of the mass of the satellites and ship chips and other lower mass elements from Earth. This roadmap positions the Moon not only as a potential gateway to Mars and space exploration, but as the first space-based industrial economy at scale. Once resource utilization capabilities are proven feasible, we believe there is an opportunity to commercialize the harvesting and exportation of rare materials, which is estimated to be present on the Moon in quantities exceeding one million tons and has potential applications in future nuclear energy and quantum computing systems. Large-scale access to these resources, coupled with the Moon's low gravity, could unlock the potential for scalable growth by establishing a vertically-integrated resource extraction, processing and exportation hub. Using Starship's high payload capacity, we believe these materials could be economically transported directly to Earth. In parallel, the Moon could function as a proving ground for closed-loop ecosystems, long-duration habitats, and autonomous construction techniques, all of which are essential for industrialization. Over time, this infrastructure has the potential to position the Moon as a strategic industrial and transportation node. Establishing lunar operations for mining, refueling, manufacturing, and habitation is subject to a variety of interconnected engineering and other hurdles, as well as known and currently unknown risks and uncertainties. These include hurdles, risks and uncertainties that relate to, among other things, transporting and deploying heavy equipment to the lunar surface, developing reliable power generation and storage systems, extracting and processing lunar resources at commercial scale, operating equipment in extreme temperature, radiation and dust conditions, maintaining communications and navigation infrastructure, and supporting long-duration human presence in a remote and hazardous environment. 4.3.8.2 Connectivity Grow Starlink Consumer Broadband and enterprise and government customers. In the near term, we are focused on increasing global awareness of our Starlink brand and capabilities to grow our base of Starlink Broadband subscribers and to increase Starlink Broadband adoption in new and existing markets. • Starlink Consumer Broadband. We have grown the number of Starlink Subscribers rapidly over the last several years. As of March 31, 2026, we had approximately 10.3 million Starlink Subscribers across 164 countries, territories, and other markets. These subscribers represent a small fraction of the estimated 3.3 billion potential end users in the markets we currently serve, many of whom still lack reliable high- speed broadband. Because we report Starlink Subscribers on a per-Service Line basis, the number of individual end users who access Starlink is already likely meaningfully higher than 10.3 million, as multiple people may share a single Service Line, including within a household. We intend to grow the number of Starlink Subscribers by expanding our consumer distribution network across thousands of authorized retail stores globally and execute region-specific marketing campaigns to increase Starlink -82- ’ ‑ ’ ‑ ‑ ’ ’ ’ ti ‑


 
brand awareness. By clearly demonstrating Starlink's superior speed, low-latency, affordability, and ease of installation — not only in rural, remote, and infrastructure-limited areas, but also in suburban and urban areas with wireline broadband options — we expect to drive meaningful subscriber and revenue growth. • Enterprise and Government Starlink Customers. We plan to drive growth in enterprise and government Starlink customers through our direct, vertical-specific sales model. In recent years, we have assembled dedicated sales and engineering teams to market and support fleet-wide conversions in the aviation and maritime sectors. This has enabled partnerships with many of the world's leading airlines, including United Airlines, Southwest Airlines, American Airlines, Qatar Airways, Lufthansa Group, British Airways, Alaska Airlines, and Hawaiian Airlines, many of which have implemented or committed to fleet-wide Starlink installations for seamless in-flight connectivity. We have also partnered with premier cruise operators, such as Carnival Corporation, Royal Caribbean Group, MSC Cruises, and Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings, for full-fleet deployments that deliver reliable high-speed internet across thousands of vessels worldwide. In addition, we have partnered with land mobility operators, including John Deere and the California Fire Department, as well as passenger rail operators such as Brightline (Florida), and Italo Treno, to provide remote monitoring and management of their fleets. We are actively driving growth in these sectors by onboarding new major airlines, cruise lines, and land mobility operators around the world, expanding existing relationships through deeper fleet penetration, and introducing advanced service tiers to make Starlink the standard connectivity solution for aviation, maritime, and land mobility customers globally. We also intend to expand our government customer base, securing major contracts with the United States and allied governments while delivering secure, resilient, and mission-critical connectivity for defense operations, humanitarian efforts, disaster response, and national security applications in even the most remote and challenging environments. We also serve a broad fixed-site customer base across industries such as retail and financial services that require high availability for critical operations as well as reliable connectivity in remote or hard-to-serve locations. As companies continue to invest in secure and resilient networks to keep critical infrastructure — such as point-of-sale and payment processing systems — we see an opportunity to grow our broad fixed-site customer base, often starting as back-up and then transitioning to primary. Expand our Starlink Mobile offering. As of March 31, 2026, we provide Starlink Mobile services to approximately 7.4 million monthly unique devices across approximately 30 countries. We partner with leading device manufacturers, application developers, and MNOs to enhance the services we provide over one satellite network, including over-the-top voice, video, and messaging. In 2025, we entered into agreements to acquire 65 MHz of spectrum in the United States and certain global Mobile Satellite Service spectrum licenses from EchoStar, which will enable a step-change in the possibilities for our Starlink Mobile service. Furtheunore, we anticipate that Starship will be able to deploy approximately 50 mobile satellites per launch, significantly increasing capacity per launch and accelerating the deployment of our next-generation constellation. With the deployment of our next- generation constellation, which is designed to fully utilize the acquired spectrum, and the expansion of our MNO partnerships, we aim to further deliver on our goal of providing connectivity for everyone and substantially reducing mobile "dead zones" worldwide — eventually with 5G connectivity to unmodified cell phones and IoT devices globally. Increase the capacity of our constellations. Our current constellations of approximately 9,600 Starlink broadband and mobile satellites, including over 3,000 satellites deployed in 2025, support over 700 Tbps of cumulative downlink capacity. To support larger numbers of customers through our Connectivity segment, we plan to materially increase the capacity of our broadband and mobile constellations. For our Starlink broadband constellation, we will continue deployment of more of our V2 Mini satellites, and in the second half of 2026, we expect to begin deployment of our next-generation V3 satellites, each of which is designed to offer one Tbps of downlink capacity per satellite. We expect Starship will be able to deploy up to 60 V3 satellites per launch, representing a twenty-fold increase in downlink capacity deployed per launch compared to Falcon 9, enabling a more rapid expansion of our Starlink broadband constellation at a significantly lower cost. For our Starlink Mobile constellation, we currently have approximately 650 existing dedicated mobile satellites. We are developing more comprehensive satellite-to mobile services, which we refer to as our Starlink Mobile Gen2 services, including broadband data and IoT connectivity, which are expected to deliver resilient, infrastructure-independent connectivity worldwide and enable 5G connectivity. We plan to expand our mobile constellation by deploying our next-generation V2 Mobile satellites in 2027 which, combined with the EchoStar spectrum acquisition and optimized 5G protocols, are expected to increase capacity by orders of magnitude compared to our first-generation constellation. In the U.S., the FCC approved the EchoStar license transfer in May 2026, and we separately expect to receive the remaining necessary U.S. regulatory authorizations in the second or third quarter of 2026. While these authorizations would be -83- li ’ – – i ’ ‑ – ‑ ‑ – ‑ rm “ ” –


 
sufficient from a U.S. regulatory perspective, we still require our V2 Mobile satellites to be in orbit and must complete the acquisition of the relevant spectrum from EchoStar before we can commence our planned commercial Gen2 service in the United States. Internationally, we have filed applications in nearly every country in which we intend to operate our Gen2 service, and approvals have been granted in a limited number of these jurisdictions to date. Each international jurisdiction presents its own regulatory process and timeline, and we cannot predict when or whether approvals will be granted in any given market. In addition, our Gen2 service is subject to ITU coordination requirements. We have an operational coordination agreement with EchoStar, which we expect to continue through 2026 and 2027, under which EchoStar has agreed to protect our lower-priority S- band V2 Mobile constellation. By prioritizing these step-change capacity increases in our satellite-to-mobile capabilities, we expect to both enhance high-speed, low-latency service quality in existing markets and provide services to previously capacity-limited and unserved regions, including dense urban areas and emerging markets. 4.3.8.3 Al Grow consumer AI platform monetization. We plan to continue to grow revenue from our AI platform, the Grok application, by increasing monetization of our existing user base. We will leverage our unique combination of real-time data, large-scale distribution, leading foundational model, and hardware expertise to increase the number of Grok subscribers. Subscribers benefit from enhanced functionality, exclusive features, and access to our latest AI models. Since the introduction of our Grok subscription offering in 2025, we have increased the number of available features to add value to our subscribers, including providing access to our latest and enhanced AI tools. We plan to continue adding new features and functionality while releasing increasingly capable Grok models to increase the penetration rate of our subscriber base. Our AI segment has demonstrated exceptional model velocity: since launching Grok, we have developed leading frontier models at a far faster rate of innovation than others. We continue to invest in scaling Grok through subsequent generations, including Grok-5. Our roadmap for future models contains multi-trillion parameter models, which could represent a step change in reasoning depth and overall intelligence. We believe this pace of innovation strengthens the value proposition of our subscription offerings and supports long term subscriber growth. While our subscriber growth has been strong, we believe we are still early in increasing paid penetration across our Grok user base. We further believe there might be an incremental monetization opportunity by introducing advertising into our stand-alone Grok offering. Grow X monetization. We intend to drive X revenue growth by increasing engagement across our users, increasing X Premium subscriber conversion, growing advertising revenue per user, and diversifying our advertising base. We continue to evolve X into an "Everything App," integrating real-time information, communications, media, payments, banking, and more within one consumer app experience. This can improve the usefulness of X, and therefore increase the usage and monetization potential of X. We have demonstrated rapid product launch velocity, with frequent features and products launched since 2023, including Grok integration, long-form video, audio and video calling, secure messaging, tool calling, long-form articles, and creator tools. We plan to further broaden the value proposition of X through offerings like Money, a product we launched in beta in November 2025, which aims to expand platform utility by enabling payments and other financial services. We updated X chat in 2025, featuring end-to-end encryption and no connection to our ad personalization, unlike other messaging services. We intend to further embed Grok throughout X to enhance discovery, analysis of posts, user support, and personalization, increasing the usefulness of X and further improving the value of a paid subscription. We also expect to grow advertising revenue per user and to diversify our advertiser base over time because of X's compelling advertiser value proposition — large-scale user engagement, real-time content, and advanced AI-driven performance marketing tools. We intend to drive further advertising revenue growth by improving our performance advertising capabilities, embedding AI to optimize ad campaigns, and launching richer ad formats, including those that increase advertiser return on ad spending and their spend with us. In determining our advertising rates, we use an auction process in which advertisers bid to have their ads shown to the audience they are targeting, except for certain reserved inventory, which is sold on a fixed price basis. We provide advertisers with several engagement metrics, including: the number of impressions, price per ad, clicks, and conversions. Currently, Grok application programming interface ("API") access is not included in our advertising rates to advertisers. We do not currently sell or offer advertisers the ability to place ads on the Grok API. We also expect X's real-time content stream and engagement feedback, subject to some limitations for certain content, to strengthen our advertising product performance and relevance, improving outcomes for both consumers and advertisers, and increasing retention. We also began a phased roll-out of our new advertising platform, including the new X Ads Manager, in April 2026. X Ads Manager is designed to help advertisers launch better campaigns faster, with AI-powered systems enabling more precise, relevant, and dynamic ad delivery and a centralized workflow for campaign creation, optimization, and real-time monitoring. Grok supports this strategy -84- I ‑ ‑ “ ” ‑ ’ – “ ” ’


 
by helping advertisers with campaign creation, creative optimization, and alignment with trending topics and user intent. Deepen enterprise and government adoption. We believe adoption of AI by both enterprise and government reflects a structural industry shift, with room for substantial long-teim growth. Our Grok Business, Grok Enterprise, and xAI Gov offerings position us to scale in tandem with broader enterprise and governmental AI adoption. Our Grok API further extends our reach by enabling developers to integrate our models directly into their applications and workflows. We intend to further support our enterprise offerings with a specialized salesforce and forward deployed engineers, engineers who embed directly with a client to implement our solution, to support customer acquisition and expansion. Increase the scale of our terrestrial power andAI compute infrastructure. We plan to rapidly scale our terrestrial AI compute infrastructure through the continued deployment of large-scale clusters to support the training and inference of our AI models. To rapidly bring gigawatt-scale data centers online, we leverage world- class engineering, first-principles thinking and deep "shovels-to-tokens" vertical integration. Our AI compute facilities, COLOSSUS and COLOSSUS II, collectively provide approximately 1.0 gigawatt of compute power, with additional power capacity available for data center operations. COLOSSUS II will also provide the compute to train our next-generation Grok-5 AI model. We expect that once fully operational, the next phase of expansion at COLOSSUS II will represent an additional 400MW of compute capacity. Our first-principles thinking enables us to build coherent compute at scale and at rapid speed with lower costs than most other companies in the industry. We brought the first cluster of COLOSSUS online in 122 days, repurposing the shell of an existing factory, and the first cluster of COLOSSUS II online even faster in 91 days. As an illustrative comparison, an industry benchmark to bring online a 100 megawatt greenfield data center is approximately two years. We also demonstrated a significant improvement in cost efficiency, achieving data center construction costs for COLOSSUS II that are considerably lower than industry benchmarks on a per megawatt basis. As AI workloads increase in complexity and scale, data center operators face constraints related to power density, cooling, network bandwidth, supply chain management, construction expertise and capital deployment. Our experience in designing mission-critical hardware systems, optimizing power efficiency, and operating distributed infrastructure networks provides a differentiated foundation for continuing to grow and advance the next-generation compute platfoun. We believe that continued investment in our compute infrastructure is critical to supporting long-teim consumer and enterprise growth as AI adoption accelerates, while also providing a powerful foundation for our transition to orbital AI compute at scale. In addition, our leadership in compute infrastructure positions us to monetize not only AI software applications built on our models, but also the underlying compute that powers them. As we continue to scale our terrestrial compute infrastructure to support internal model development, training, and inference workloads, we intend to sell our high-performance compute capacity to a limited number of third party customers. Deploy orbitalAl compute at scale. We believe growth of the projected $26.5 trillion-dollar AI market will be constrained by Earth's inability to rapidly scale power generation, underscoring the challenge of achieving terawatt-scale compute without hauning people and the environment. While we expect terrestrial power generation to continue to grow, we believe the physical, environmental, and regulatory constraints will prevent it from delivering the orders-of-magnitude increases needed to match future energy demands of the AI era. Power from the Sun, an enormous, free fusion reactor in the sky, represents approximately 99.8% of the solar system's energy and offers the only truly scalable solution to terrestrial energy constraints. By combining virtually unlimited solar power in space with our industry-leading launch costs and satellite manufacturing capabilities, we believe we can deliver compute over time at a fundamentally lower cost structure than is possible on Earth. By the end of the decade, we intend to deploy the first modular orbital AI compute shells and begin monetizing capacity through the sale of AI software and AI compute. We aim to launch 100 gigawatts of AI compute capacity on solar-powered satellites each year, equivalent to roughly one fifth of total annual U.S. power production in 2025.25 The amount of compute capacity we can launch depends on three components — payload, satellite capacity, and launch frequency. With respect to payload, Starship V3 is designed to deliver 100 metric tons to space in a fully reusable configuration while enabling rapid turnaround times, and future generations could reach 200 metric tons, potentially as soon as Starship V4. With respect to satellite capacity, we expect solar cells optimized for the space environment will be produced at a rapid rate, with early satellites generating 100 kilowatts of compute power and scaling from there. Finally, with respect to launch frequency, we expect to be able to scale to thousands of launches per year. Together, we expect these achievements will allow us to transport approximately one million metric tons to orbit annually, powering 100 gigawatts of AI compute. Such compute capacity will also play a 25 Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration. -85- r “ ” rm r ital I ’ rm ’ 25 – 25


 
critical role in advancing our human augmentation vision by expanding the reach, speed, and capability of AI beyond what is possible with terrestrial compute infrastructure alone. We believe we are well-positioned to execute and deliver orbital AI compute to build the infrastructure of the future. We believe orbital AI compute is an incredibly difficult challenge that only we can solve at scale in the near term. Design and manufacture our own chips. We plan to deepen our strategic collaboration with Tesla and Intel through Terafab. In connection with such collaboration, we have agreed with Tesla on a general framework for the future development of Terafab. Any specific projects undertaken pursuant to this framework will be subject to separate negotiations and agreements (including any development timelines, milestones and capital expenditures) and have not yet been determined. We expect Terafab to be the world's largest chip manufacturing facility, with the goal of eventually achieving one terawatt of annual compute production capacity. While Terafab is intended to expand our internal chip manufacturing capabilities, we expect to continue sourcing a significant portion of our compute hardware from third-party suppliers. We view Terafab as complementary to these relationships, enabling us to augment our access to compute hardware at massive scale and further complete our highly vertically integrated compute platform by extending our control to the foundational chip layer. By developing end-to-end capabilities spanning the design of lithography masks, fabrication of logic and memory chips, and advanced packaging, all in a vertically integrated closed-loop single plant, we will be able to more rapidly iterate to improve chip design and performance. We plan to design chips that are optimized for the space environment. This collaboration directly enables our planned orders-of-magnitude increases in AI compute deployment in orbit which would be constrained by pure reliance on external foundries. Leveraging shared engineering resources, intellectual property, and infrastructure across Tesla and SpaceX, as well as Intel's expertise in designing, fabricating and packaging ultra-high-performance chips at scale, Terafab is designed to create powerful ecosystem synergies that accelerate innovation cycles and reduce costs. Just as we manufacture approximately 80% of Starship in-house, we expect significant speed and cost advantages from Terafab's vertical integration. We believe this integration, if achieved, will provide us with a critical competitive advantage in the race to scale AI infrastructure, especially as we begin our orbital AI compute satellite deployments. Launch digital human augmentation. In partnership with Tesla, we are developing Macrohard, an agentic platform designed to fully emulate digital workflows and augment human operation of computers - from coding and product development to management and entire business processes. Similar to how autonomous systems emulate human inputs to execute complex tasks, Macrohard is designed to augment how humans operate computers and tools to analyze, create, and manage workflows. Unlike other enterprise software and AI applications that primarily digitize workflows and systematize historical processes, our solutions are designed to operate as real-time, intelligence-driven extensions of the user. Macrohard aims to combine our frontier AI model with Tesla's physical AI prowess to achieve the goal of augmenting the operational functions of entire companies. We expect Macrohard to benefit from running on both state-of-the-art processors and cost efficient Tesla processors, a critical advantage of our vertical integration. We believe Macrohard has the potential to fundamentally transform how companies across all industries are structured and operate, thereby allowing dramatic increases in human productivity and prosperity. 4.3.8.4 Future Markets We aim to build the infrastructure of the future in Space, leveraging our foundational competitive advantage, the ability to launch mass at scale. By opening access to space to industries on Earth, we can grow our business by creating new markets. Our technological capabilities enable us to repeatedly create new markets by pushing the boundaries of what space can support. As we continue to advance and scale, we expect to unlock new market opportunities. Over the long-term, we expect our Starship-enabled opportunities to include: • Point-to-point terrestrial travel. We plan to develop ultra-fast long-haul point-to-point Earth transport using Starship, enabling passengers and cargo to travel between major cities in a fraction of current transit times, revolutionizing global logistics and passenger travel with unprecedented speed and efficiency. • Space tourism. With meaningful advances in space technology and the continued build-out of orbital fl ight infrastructure, we expect increasing interest in human space travel as it becomes easier and more common to access space. • In-orbit manufacturing. We aim to establish in-space manufacturing facilities that leverage the unique microgravity conditions of space to produce materials, pharmaceuticals, and advanced components that are difficult or impossible to manufacture on Earth, opening new high-value industrial markets. -86- ’ it ’ ’ – l ’ t


 
• Passenger and cargo transport to the Moon and Mars. We intend to support large-scale passenger and cargo missions to the Moon and Mars, delivering the people, equipment, and supplies needed to establish peunanent human settlements and accelerate the path to becoming a self-sustaining multiplanetary civilization. • Energy production on the Moon and Mars. We aim to develop large-scale solar energy production on the Moon and Mars, taking advantage of the thin atmosphere and constant solar exposure to generate power for manufacturing, habitats, and future infrastructure at scale. • Manufacturing capabilities on the Moon and Mars. We plan to build manufacturing infrastructure on the Moon and Mars that utilizes local resources to produce fuel, construction materials, and other essential resources, reducing dependence on Earth resupply and enabling sustainable long-teen presence. • Asteroid mining. We plan to pursue asteroid mining operations to extract metals and other critical resources from near-Earth and main-belt asteroids, providing abundant raw materials for space-based industries and reducing the need to launch mass from Earth. 4.3.9 Our Market Opportunity Our innovations and technological advancements are redefining existing industries and creating new market opportunities across Space, Connectivity and AI. We believe we have a distinct ability to identify, develop, and commercialize new multi-trillion-dollar markets that did not previously exist. We believe that we currently stand alone in our ability to deliver revolutionary breakthroughs across spaceflight and exploration, global connectivity, and artificial intelligence, enabling an age of abundance that we believe has the potential to propel an unprecedented expansion in the global economy. By pioneering the world's first and only fleet of reusable rockets at scale, we revolutionized space access through dramatically lower cost and unmatched reliability. Lowering costs by orders of magnitude creates entirely new industries on Earth and in space that were technologically and economically infeasible for others to access historically. Our first trillion-dollar market was Starlink, a satellite service supported by our low-latency, high- speed LEO constellation that required the rapid, low-cost deployment of millions of kilograms of hardware into orbit. Our Starlink constellation powers a global connectivity platform capable of supporting broadband and mobile services, enabling high-speed internet access to homes, enterprises, governments, and mobile users across virtually any location on Earth. We believe our next trillion-dollar market is AI compute, which we contemplate will leverage our rockets and satellites for massive orbital deployment. We estimate that our quantifiable TAM is $28.5 trillion, consisting of $370 billion in Space from space- enabled solutions; $1.6 trillion in Connectivity across $870 billion in Starlink Broadband and $740 billion in Starlink Mobile as well as additional opportunities in enterprise and government; $26.5 trillion in AI across $2.4 trillion in AI infrastructure, $760 billion in consumer subscriptions, $600 billion in digital advertising, and $22.7 trillion in enterprise applications. For illustrative purposes of sizing our addressable market opportunity, we exclude China and Russia from our global estimates. In addition to the markets we serve today, we believe we are poised to catalyze transfoulative breakthroughs and create entirely new markets. Given these are longer-teen opportunities at earlier stages of development, we do not quantify them in our TAM estimates; however, we believe that over time each of these markets could eventually represent multi-trillion-dollar economic opportunities. These new markets include long haul point-to-point terrestrial travel, space tourism, in-orbit manufacturing, asteroid mining, energy production and manufacturing on the Moon and Mars, and passenger and cargo transportation to the Moon and Mars. -87- rm i rm ’ t l rm t rm


 
SpaceX's Estimated TAM by Segment $370B $870B $740B $2.4T I 1 $760B $600B $22.7T Space-Enabled Starlink Solutions Broadband SPACE: $370B $28.5T Starlink AI Consumer Digital Enterprise Total Mobile Infrastructure Subscriptions Advertising Applications Addressable Market CONNECTIVITY: $1.67 4.3.9.1 Space While the size of the space market is massive for any company to address, our capabilities in space represent a foundational competitive advantage that allow us to address markets that represent significant portions of global gross domestic product ("GDP") — connectivity and AI. We estimate a total market opportunity of $370 billion across space-enabled solutions, with the lunar economy presenting a significant upside not included in the estimate. Space-Enabled Solutions. According to Novaspace, space-enabled solutions represented a $370 billion market in 2025, including spacecraft manufacturing, launch services, satellite operations, positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) devices and value-added services, as well as uncontracted costs of government space agencies. Both commercial and government customers participate in this market, with growing space-based defense budgets reflecting prioritization of security, resilience, and strategic autonomy by governments globally. For the purpose of sizing our TAM, we exclude the value of satellite communications services, as we include those within our Connectivity segment. Lunar Economy. We believe the development of a sustained human and commercial presence on the Moon has the potential to give rise to a new lunar economy encompassing transportation, infrastructure, communications, energy, manufacturing (including the production of satellites and advanced chips), resource extraction, and scientific and commercial activity. Early demand is already emerging from government space agencies and research institutions, and we expect this to expand over time to include commercial enterprises seeking to leverage the Moon as a platfoun for logistics, industrial activity, and deep-space exploration. Establishing a lunar economy requires first proving reliable extraction of water ice to sustain life and producing hydrogen-oxygen propellant, alongside building power, transport, and storage infrastructure in an extreme, high- cost environment. If achieved, we believe these same resources and the Moon's low gravity unlock the potential for scalable growth through an efficient fuel production and refueling hub, creating a strategic access point that can potentially support deeper space industrialization and serve as a stepping stone to establishing a civilization on Mars. Although we believe the potential size and scope of the lunar economy is extraordinarily large, we are not providing an estimate of the TAM for this opportunity at this time because expectations regarding the timing, pace of adoption, regulatory frameworks, and ultimate scope of commercial activity beyond Earth are rapidly evolving alongside the development and deployment of the technology necessary to establish a lunar presence (such as Starship). As the Moon transitions from a scientific outpost into an industrial frontier, SpaceX is positioned to spearhead this revolutionary expansion, and we believe that continued advancements in our launch capabilities, space infrastructure capabilities, and cost efficiency will allow us to meaningfully accelerate the development of a sustainable lunar economy. -88- ’ “ ” – rm ’


 
4.3.9.2 Connectivity We believe the global connectivity market represents a substantial and durable opportunity, driven by the increasing reliance of consumers, enterprises, and governments on high-speed, low-latency, reliable connectivity across both terrestrial and remote environments. Across Starlink Broadband and Starlink Mobile, we estimate a total market opportunity of $1.6 trillion reflecting primarily consumer use cases. We believe these traditional use cases, however, do not account for the long-teim market opportunity, as connectivity is evolving into a critical infrastructure layer underpinning the global economy, enabling entirely new categories of demand. As high- perfounance, ubiquitous connectivity becomes embedded across transportation networks, autonomous systems, and smart devices, we expect the scope of the market to extend well beyond the traditional definitions. Starlink Broadband. The global demand for ubiquitous, high-speed broadband internet creates an approximately $870 billion dollar opportunity. Our satellite broadband service, Starlink, is positioned to capture value across multiple massive and rapidly expanding markets: • Consumer Broadband. As the digital economy continues to expand, ubiquitous, high-speed, reliable internet has become a structural necessity for households worldwide — powering opportunity and the next wave of global prosperity. According to Euromonitor, there were approximately 1.8 billion global households in 2025. As Starlink develops, we believe that our broadband network can connect, and improve the existing connection, of every household globally. Given varying economic conditions and consumer purchasing power across different countries, we use a different monthly ARPU for different parts of the world based on country-specific consumer broadband ARPU from Omdia as we seek to make our service affordable and accessible across different economic development contexts. Region-specific ARPU assumptions result in a weighted average of $31 monthly ARPU for residential broadband internet services globally, according to Omdia. This global average consists of a weighted average monthly ARPU of $43 in high-income markets, $16 in upper-middle income markets, and $9 in lower-middle income and low income markets per World Bank classification. Together this represents a TAM of $660 billion based on 1.8 billion households. Approximately 40% of the global population lives in rural areas, remaining structurally underserved by terrestrial broadband infrastructure due to unfavorable deployment economics, limited network density and high last-mile costs. This structural imbalance creates a large, durable and relatively uncontested baseline market for satellite- based connectivity solutions. For many of these households, Starlink represents the first viable option for high-speed, low-latency internet access, with limited competition from terrestrial providers. Unlike terrestrial networks, which require significant incremental capital to extend coverage to low-density areas, our space-based architecture enables economically scalable service delivery across these regions with minimal marginal cost per additional user. Importantly, while rural and underserved geographies provide a compelling initial adoption vector, we believe Starlink's value proposition extends well beyond these markets. As network capacity increases and product perfoimance continues to improve, we expect to compete increasingly in suburban and urban environments. Accordingly, while rural households represent a large and durable entry point for our connectivity offering, we view this segment as a foundational layer upon which significantly broader consumer, enterprise and government demand can be built. • Enterprise Solutions. We offer fixed site broadband solutions tailored for the needs of our enterprise customers across many different industries, including construction, agriculture, retail, telecom, hospitality and others. For the purpose of sizing market opportunity, we include small and medium sized businesses within our Enterprise Solutions market opportunity. Our Starlink enterprise offerings can provide important primary or back-up connectivity for every business in the geographies where we are licensed to operate. According to Grand View Research, the global business broadband market in 2025 across small to medium sized business and enterprise usage is estimated to be $200 billion. • Government Solutions. Driven by increasing demand for resilient, low-latency, and highly secure communications in contested and remote environments, defense organizations and governments around the world are increasingly turning to commercial satellite providers with connectivity solutions to supplement and enhance traditional military networks. According to Novaspace, the global satellite communications market driven by defense and government demand in 2025 was $5 billion. The estimate of the government communications market includes only publicly disclosed programs and budgets and -89- r rm – i ’ r i


 
does not include classified missions or other restricted uses, which we believe represent additional sources of demand. Starlink Mobile. According to Omdia, as of December 31, 2025, there were eight billion mobile connected devices globally. We believe our Starlink Mobile offering will be able to provide continuous global coverage and substantially reduce mobile "dead zones," which remain areas that are structurally underserved by the limitations of the networks of current MNOs. For example, according to the J.D. Power U.S. Wireless Network Quality Perfounance Study, U.S. wireless customers experienced service problems in approximately one out of every 11 mobile interactions, even in well-connected areas. In addition, an estimated 40% of the global population resided in rural areas in 2024 according to the World Bank, where terrestrial mobile coverage can be limited or unreliable. While we expect Starlink Mobile service today to be most impactful for customers in remote areas uncovered by terrestrial mobile networks, as our constellation grows and our product performance continues to improve, we will compete to be the preferred connectivity experience to our customers no matter where they are located, whether in rural, suburban, or urban areas. The next-generation of Starlink Mobile satellites, in combination with our recent purchase of wireless spectrum from EchoStar, is designed to provide high bandwidth and low latency connectivity directly to end user devices, enabling a connectivity solution on par with terrestrial mobile networks. Given varying economic conditions and consumer purchasing power across different countries, we assume a different monthly ARPU for different parts of the world as we seek to make our service affordable and accessible across different economic development contexts. Our region-specific ARPU assumptions result in a weighted average monthly mobile ARPU of $8 per user. This global average consists of a weighted average monthly ARPU of $18 in high-income markets, $5 in upper-middle income markets, $2 in lower-middle, and $2 in low income markets. Based on the total number of connected devices globally and the mobile ARPU, we estimate the Starlink Mobile market opportunity to be $740 billion. We expect to continue to partner with MNOs globally as we expand coverage and participate in the broader mobile connectivity market. Additional and Future Starlink Applications. We believe the long-teii_1 market opportunity for Starlink extends materially beyond traditional fixed broadband and satellite-to-mobile connectivity. Many of these use cases represent new categories of demand that were not previously addressable with legacy terrestrial or satellite solutions due to limitations in coverage, latency, capacity, or cost. While these additional and future use cases are early stage and not yet captured in conventional industry market definitions, we believe they have the potential to significantly expand the TAM for connectivity over time. • Enterprise Mobility. Because our Starlink solutions are uniquely well-suited for in-motion environments, remote, or hard-to-serve locations, we are able to provide high-perfoimance connectivity across land, air, and sea. We believe we have a differentiated right to win these verticals as existing connectivity solutions are not able to provide sufficient speed, latency and reliability, with frequent service outages driven by weather, orbital mechanics and coverage gaps. Our Starlink constellation directly addresses these deficiencies, creating a compelling path for us to capture a substantial share of opportunities and to unlock previously unattainable levels of service quality and customer willingness to pay. In land mobility, Starlink supports connectivity for vehicle fleets, including trucking, rail, public safety vehicles, and autonomous systems, enabling real-time telematics, route optimization, safety monitoring, and onboard passenger connectivity, as fleets become increasingly connected and data-driven. In aviation, Starlink delivers high-speed, low-latency in-flight connectivity for commercial airlines, business aviation, and government aircraft, supporting passenger broadband, operational communications, and real-time aircraft data transmission, as airlines increasingly prioritize differentiated onboard experiences and operational efficiency. There are approximately 23,900 commercial aircraft, according to Oliver Wyman, and approximately 24,500 privately owned aircraft, according to Corporate Jet Investor, in the world, which can be served by our aviation offering. In maritime, Starlink provides connectivity for commercial shipping, offshore energy platforms, cruise lines, and government vessels, enabling crew welfare, operational optimization, safety systems, and real- time data transfer, as connectivity becomes a standard requirement across global fleets. Our potential customer base as of 2025 consists of approximately 99,000 commercial merchant ships, defined as being 100 gross tons or more, approximately 21,000 fishing vessels, and approximately 4,000 cruise ships and private yachts, according to Marine Traffic Dashboard. -90- “ ” rm rm t i r


 
• Expanded Enterprise and Government Applications Enterprise Back-Up and Failover Connectivity. As connectivity becomes a mission critical component of enterprise operations, we believe back-up and failover connectivity is evolving into a foundational layer of enterprise infrastructure. The increasing cost of downtime, combined with the proliferation of cloud-based and latency-sensitive applications, is driving enterprises to prioritize uptime, business continuity, and network resilience and adopt multi-layered connectivity architectures. We believe this shift will result in a meaningful expansion of the connectivity market. Expanded Government Applications. We believe traditional connectivity market estimates do not fully capture the scope of government-related demand, particularly in mission-critical and classified applications. The growing importance of secure communications, real-time intelligence, and resilient network architectures is driving sustained investment in connectivity capabilities across defense and civilian agencies. These use cases tend to command higher value and longer-duration contracts, contributing to a meaningful and durable expansion of the connectivity market. Smart Device Connectivity. The proliferation of connected devices across various physical environments — including sensors, wearables, vehicles, appliances, and infrastructure systems — is driving increasing demand for ubiquitous, reliable, and low-latency connectivity. As of 2025, there were approximately 22 billion IoT connected devices globally, forecasted to reach 47 billion by 2031. As billions of connected devices generate, transmit, and act on data, connectivity becomes an essential enabler of new categories of economic activity. As these devices grow in scale into the tens of billions globally and become more intelligent and data-intensive, we believe the scope of the connectivity market will expand significantly beyond traditional human-centric usage. In-Orbit Data Transport. We operate a large constellation of over 23,000 inter-satellite lasers that create a dynamic mesh network in space and enable traffic rerouting through orbit. We believe this laser mesh network will help us unlock a new connectivity market by enabling third-party satellites to utilize our in- orbit data transport layer. While most of our laser mesh network capacity is used to power our Starlink services, we selectively monetize excess capacity through our Plaser program. We allow third parties to purchase our space laser hardware and connect their satellites to our Starlink network, allowing them to offload data to a ground station anywhere on Earth while bypassing the need to build their own relay architecture or ground stations. As satellite constellations grow, we expect market demand for high- throughput, low-latency data relay to increase across commercial and government operators. While this market remains nascent, we believe the opportunity represents a meaningful expansion beyond traditional satellite connectivity TAM. 4.3.9.3 Artificial Intelligence The market for artificial intelligence is currently undergoing explosive structural growth, emerging as a foundational utility for the modern global economy and unlocking a multi-trillion-dollar opportunity. Our frontier models, consumer and enterprise applications, and AI infrastructure solutions are strategically positioned to capture value across four key components of this vast ecosystem, resulting in an estimated total market opportunity of $26.5 trillion. Al Infrastructure. According to RAND Corporation, global data center compute demand is estimated to be 235 gigawatts in 2030, of which 70% is estimated to be utilized for AI workloads. Assuming a target Power Usage Effectiveness of 1.2 and an all-in chip power consumption per GPU of 1.3 kilowatts per GPU — that of an H100 SXM — this AI workload demand corresponds to 104 million GPUs required. We apply an 80% utilization rate per the National Electrical Installation Standards and a GPU rental rate of $3.33 per hour, according to Silicon Data, which is based on the median of neocloud GPU rental rates in 2025; we note that the rental rate has historically varied subject to market conditions. As a result, we estimate the AI compute infrastructure market opportunity to be approximately $2.4 trillion. Consumer Subscriptions. As demand for AI solutions surges, fueled by widespread adoption of AI tools that enhance productivity, creativity, personalization, and real-time assistance in everyday life, consumers are increasingly turning to subscription-based access to high-performance AI platfouns. These platforms, equipped with advanced reasoning, seamless real-time data integration, and multimodal capabilities, are essential in today's ever-more receptive and interconnected world. We believe SpaceX is well positioned to address this opportunity through our X and Grok platfouns by delivering a differentiated product centered on truth-seeking and real-time relevance. Our roadmap for future models contains multi-trillion parameter models, which could represent a step -91- i i – – it I – – rm ’ rm


 
change in reasoning depth and overall intelligence. Through Grok's integration with X and proprietary access to real-time data inflows, we believe we can better address a broader set of high-frequency, high-value consumer use cases and increase user engagement and willingness to pay, positioning Grok to capture a larger share of the consumer AI subscription market relative to standalone, non-integrated offerings. We estimate our market opportunity based on the global population of individuals aged 10 and over in 2025 — approximately five and a half billion according to Euromonitor — multiplied by the weighted average monthly subscription revenue of $12, resulting in an annualized market opportunity of approximately $760 billion. Our weighted average monthly revenue assumes different monthly subscription fees across different geographies around the world. We assume $30 monthly cost of a SuperGrok subscription in high-income countries, $8 monthly cost in upper-middle and lower-middle income countries, and significantly lower monthly cost in low income countries, as defined by the World Bank. Digital Advertising. Digital advertising represents a large and growing global market opportunity as businesses increase marketing budgets towards digital platforms that enable targeted advertising, measurable performance, and direct engagement with consumers. In 2025, global digital advertising spending totaled $600 billion according to S&P Global Market Intelligence. We believe that X's ability to combine large-scale user engagement, real-time content, and advanced AI-driven performance marketing tools positions us well to participate in this significant market opportunity. Enterprise Applications. AI is revolutionizing enterprise applications as organizations across industries increasingly adopt AI solutions to automate complex workflows, augment knowledge workers, enhance decision- making, redefine productivity, and improve operational efficiency. Specifically, we believe that our enterprise applications, including Macrohard, agentic AI, will increasingly support knowledge workers across industries by automating routine cognitive tasks, assisting with research and analysis, generating content and code, and refining decision-making processes. Ultimately, we believe this transformation could evolve knowledge workers into empowered managers of autonomous agents, unlocking unprecedented levels of creativity and productivity. We believe we are still in the early days of AI transforr_ling enterprises, with AI-powered enterprise applications poised to reshape the digital economy. The Digital Cooperation Organization ("DCO") defines the digital economy as economic activity reliant on, significantly enhanced, or enabled by digital technologies and their applications, including the following products and services: AI and advanced analytics, blockchain and decentralized technologies, cloud services, digital connectivity, digital devices and the IoT, encryption and cybersecurity, immersive technologies, and robotics and autonomous systems. DCO estimates that the digital economy will grow three times faster in 2026 on a year-over-year basis compared to the estimated growth of the global GDP, reaching approximately $22.7 trillion in 2026. In a survey of CTOs, senior technologists, policymakers, and digital economy experts, also conducted by DCO, AI and advanced analytics were identified by 69% of respondents as their top digital technology priority — higher than any other surveyed priority. We believe that our enterprise strategy, which is focused on serving the digital needs of the world's largest industries with AI solutions, positions us competitively to pursue this rapidly growing opportunity. 4.3.9.4 Future Markets Beyond the established markets reflected in our TAM, we envision that ongoing advancements in our technology and infrastructure will unlock entirely new markets over time. As launch costs decline, satellite capabilities advance, and large-scale compute infrastructure expands, innovative applications and new markets may emerge that harness our integrated infrastructure across space, connectivity, and AI. Although these prospects remain nascent, with uncertain timing and scale — and thus are excluded from our quantified TAM estimates — we believe they hold trillions of dollars of eventual potential for groundbreaking innovation and value creation, eventually representing multi-trillion-dollar economic opportunities. Long-Haul Point-to-Point Terrestrial Travel. Our Starship vehicle has the potential to revolutionize terrestrial commercial transportation by achieving an unparalleled combination of speed, reliability and cost efficiency. This capability could reduce most international long-haul flights to under 30 minutes, enabling point- to-point travel to the furthest location in an hour or less. While we must surmount technological, economic and regulatory obstacles to fully capitalize on this opportunity — such as restrictions on supersonic flights over land in certain regions due to sonic booms, and the economic feasibility of shorter routes — we believe we are strategically positioned to take share of the terrestrial logistics and transportation market. Space Tourism. Historically, human spaceflight has been limited to government astronauts, augmented by a limited number of privately funded missions. Yet, with meaningful advances in space technology and the ongoing expansion of orbital flight infrastructure, we anticipate a gradual increase in accessibility of spaceflight -92- ’ – – ’ t m “ ” – ’ t – – err t – –


 
over time, potentially enabling a new category of commercial human spaceflight and tourism. Under 30 people out of the global population visited Earth's orbit in 2025, which we believe could be a far greater number in the future. Passenger and Cargo Transport to the Moon and Mars. Looking further ahead, advances in reusable launch systems and deep-space transportation infrastructure may enable new foul's of interplanetary logistics, including passenger and cargo transportation to the Moon and Mars. Supporting a sustained human presence on another planet would require the regular transport of people, equipment, and materials at a scale not previously possible. Energy Production and Manufacturing on the Moon and Mars. Establishing a sustained human and industrial presence on the Moon and Mars would require reliable, large-scale energy generation to support habitats, manufacturing, and scientific operations. Potential solutions could include solar power systems, taking advantage of the thin atmosphere, constant solar exposure, and other advanced energy technologies designed to operate in the unique environmental conditions of the Moon and Mars. Over time, we believe that advances in planetary infrastructure may enable manufacturing on the Moon and Mars using locally available resources. In-Orbit Manufacturing. Terrestrial manufacturing is inherently constrained by gravity, which imposes fundamental limitations on processes at the atomic and molecular level. Establishing in-orbit infrastructure unlocks large-scale, high-value production free from those traditional barriers, enabling breakthroughs in precision and efficiency. The microgravity environment of space fosters innovative advancements in key industries, such as phaunaceuticals — where it enhances drug solubility, purity, crystallization, and stability — as well as, advanced materials and semiconductors, allowing for superior crystal founation and material properties unattainable on Earth. Beyond these particle-level innovations, in-orbit facilities overcome Earth's energy constraints by harnessing abundant, uninterrupted solar power, facilitating energy-intensive operations with unparalleled sustainability. Asteroid Mining. Asteroid resources, including platinum-group metals, rare earth elements, nickel, cobalt, iron and water, represent a vast untapped reservoir beyond Earth's gravity well, with some near-Earth objects containing concentrations of elements far exceeding typical terrestrial ore grades. With meaningful advances in reusable launch capabilities, autonomous robotics, and in-situ processing technologies, we believe the accessibility of asteroid resources will expand over time, unlocking a new category of commercial space resource extraction. We believe our experience in launch systems, spacecraft development, and space infrastructure uniquely positions us to pursue asteroid mining operations to extract metals and other critical resources from near-Earth and main-belt asteroids, providing abundant raw materials for space-based infrastructure, reducing the need to launch all mass from Earth. 4.3.10 Our Solutions & Services 4.3.10.1 Launch Capability Our launch capability is the foundational competitive advantage that enables our solutions and services. We are the market leader in orbital launch, providing low-cost, reliable, and frequent access to space for commercial and government customers. Our launch services are built around a fleet of reusable rockets and spacecraft. SpaceX's family of rocket systems and spacecraft address missions ranging from routine cargo delivery to the International Space Station to deep-space exploration. The Falcon class of rockets delivered over 80% of mass to orbit in the year ending December 31, 2025. Starship, a two-stage super heavy-lift launch vehicle that we have been flight testing since 2023, further enhances our industry -defining launch offerings. Separate from our fleet of reusable rockets, SpaceX's launch advantage is equally underpinned by our fleet of advanced spacecraft. Our International Space Station cargo and human spaceflight missions are launched on Falcon 9 and flown on the Dragon crew and cargo spacecraft. The vehicles autonomously dock to the station, delivering pressurized and unpressurized cargo, and passengers. Both Dragon variants are partially reusable and perfolin fully autonomous rendezvous, docking, and return operations. -93- ’ rm rm – – rm ’ ’ ’ ’ rm

The Falcon 9 rocket is a reusable, two-stage rocket designed and manufactured by SpaceX for the safe, reliable, and cost-effective transport of satellites, scientific payloads, cargo, and crew to Earth orbit and beyond. Powered by liquid oxygen and rocket-grade kerosene, the first-stage is equipped with nine Merlin 1D engines producing over 1.7 million pounds of thrust at sea level, while the second stage utilizes a single vacuum- optimized Merlin engine for precise orbital insertion. First launched in 2010, Falcon 9 is the world's first orbital- class rapidly reusable rocket, and has become the most active orbital launch vehicle today, with approximately 620 orbital space launches as of March 31, 2026 and an over 99% mission success rate. Falcon 9 is capable of delivering approximately 23 metric tons to LEO and eight metric tons to geosynchronous transfer orbit. Reusability allows SpaceX to rely the most expensive parts of the rocket, which in turn drives down the cost of space access. Falcon 9's reusable components primarily include its booster, which lands on one of our autonomous drone ships out on the ocean or on one of our landing zones near our launch pads ahead of being refurbished for a future launch, and its payload fairing halves, which are recovered via parachute-assisted splashdowns and are refurbished and reused after retrieval. The second stage is not designed for recovery or reuse and instead safely deorbits after successful payload deployment. -94- ehi ehi l ’ fl ’


 
Falcon 9 Overview FALCON 9 HEIGHT 70 m / 229.6 ft DIAMETER 3.7 m / 12 ft MASS 594,054 kg / 1,207,920 lbs PAYLOAD CAPACITY TO LEO 22,800 kg / 50,265 lbs PAYLOAD CAPACITY TO GTO 8,308 kg / 18,300 lbs PAYLOAD CAPACITY TO MARS FIRST LAUNCH 4,020 kg / 8,860 lbs June 4, 2010 Please refer to the definition of 'payload capacity to orbit' in the Glossary for additional details Falcon 9 introduced a combination of technical innovation, cost reduction, and operational scale that materially altered the economics of orbital launch and established our position as the leading commercial launch provider. • First Orbital-Class Rapidly Reusable Rocket: In December 2015, Falcon 9 achieved the first vertical landing of an orbital-class booster, followed in April 2016 by the first autonomous drone ship landing in the Atlantic Ocean. Reuse of boosters and fairings, a practice pioneered by SpaceX in the launch industry, fundamentally enables our launch rate and capacity and foul's the basis for the launch system's inherent reliability. Through recovering, inspecting, and evaluating flown hardware, SpaceX gains insight into system performance that would not be otherwise achievable. Partial reusability for orbital spaceflight has reduced cost per ton to orbit by approximately 85% as compared to the historical average launch cost per kilogram of $18,500. • Reusability Enabled Cost Structure Advantage: Reuse of the first-stage — representing the majority of vehicle manufacturing cost — has materially reduced marginal launch costs relative to fully expendable systems. • Highest Operational Tempo in History: With approximately 620 orbital space launches over 15 years of operation, Falcon 9 is the most frequently flown active orbital launch vehicle to date. In 2025, Falcon 9 conducted 165 launches, accounting for over half of all global orbital launches in the year while delivering over 80% of mass to orbit. • Track Record of Success: As of March 31, 2026, Falcon 9 has achieved an over 99% mission success rate. Falcon 9 has achieved over 570 successful booster landings and more than 540 launches completed by a flight-proven Falcon rocket, underscoring the reliability of its reusability architecture. • Human Spaceflight Certified: Falcon 9, paired with SpaceX's Dragon crew spacecraft, is the only U.S. - based launch vehicle certified by NASA under the Commercial Crew Program to transport astronauts to and from the International Space Station. As of December 31, 2025, Falcon 9 has successfully launched 19 human spaceflight missions with a 100% mission success rate. • In-House Engine Development and Manufacturing: Falcon 9 is powered by Merlin engines that are designed, developed, and manufactured in-house, providing vertical integration across propulsion design, production, and testing. The Merlin engine achieves one of the highest thrust-to-weight ratios of any rocket engine in operational service, contributing to Falcon 9's performance and payload capacity. -95- l rm ’ – – ’ ‑ ‑ ‑ ’


 
As we transition primary production and development resources toward the fully and rapidly reusable Starship system, Falcon 9 continues to serve as the backbone of our launch revenue base; generating high-margin recurring cash flows while providing critical operational experience in high-cadence reuse. The proven capabilities of Falcon 9 in our view established us as the leading provider of launch services globally and laid the technological and economic foundation for the next era of space transportation. Falcon Heavy. Falcon Heavy is a partially reusable super heavy-lift launch vehicle, designed to deliver large payloads to orbit. Building on the proven architecture of the Falcon 9 rocket, Falcon Heavy is composed of three reusable Falcon 9 nine-engine boosters whose combined 27 Merlin engines generate more than five million pounds of thrust at liftoff — one of the most powerful operational rockets in the world today. It is capable of carrying approximately 64 metric tons of payload to LEO and 27 metric tons to geosynchronous transfer orbit. Falcon Heavy's reusable components primarily include its three boosters, which are designed to land vertically on drone ships in the ocean and landing zones near our launch sites, and its payload-faring halves, which are recovered via parachute-assisted splashdown and are refurbished and reused after retrieval. The second stage is not designed for recovery or reuse and is designed to safely deorbit after successful payload deployment, similar to Falcon 9. Falcon Heavy Overview FALCON HEAVY HEIGHT 70 m / 229.6 ft WIDTH 12.2 m / 39.9 ft MASS 1,420,788 kg / 3,125,735 lbs PAYLOAD CAPACITY TO LEO 63,800 kg / 140,660 lbs PAYLOAD CAPACITY TO GTO 26,700 kg / 58,860 lbs PAYLOAD CAPACITY TO MARS 16,800 kg / 37,040 lbs FIRST LAUNCH February 6, 2018 Please refer to the definition of 'payload capacity to orbit' in the Glossary for additional details • Reusability: Falcon Heavy incorporates a design focused on reusability, which has contributed to lowering the cost of access to space and altering the launch industry's economic model for large or high- value payloads. The vehicle's two side boosters, equipped with hypersonic grid fins and advanced propulsion systems, enable controlled recovery and soft landings. This capability enables reusability, with missions launching on flight-proven boosters generally priced below those of traditional expendable flights. Our Falcon 9 boosters, which are qualified for up to 40 flights, are also used on Falcon Heavy, with an average of 6 flights per booster on Falcon Heavy. Although our Falcon 9 boosters have been engineered and demonstrated to support up to 40 flights, we have established a maximum accounting useful life of 25 flights as an estimate based on forecasted utilization. This estimate reflects: (i) our strategic transition to Starship, which is expected to materially reduce future Falcon 9 flight demand; and (ii) restrictions under certain government contracts that prohibit the use of boosters flown more than five times on their missions. These useful life estimates are periodically reassessed based on engineering qualification data, post-flight inspections, recovery success rates, actual fleet perfounance, cost sensitivity analyses, and the long-range launch manifest. • Exploratory Missions Beyond Earth's Orbit: Falcon Heavy first launched in February 2018, when it put a Tesla Roadster and its mannequin passenger, Staiman, into orbit around the Sun. This was the first instance of a car sent into deep space and demonstrated the rocket's capability for trans-Mars injection. -96- – ’ l tr ’ l ’ rm ’ r t’


 
Since its inaugural flight, Falcon Heavy has completed missions that expanded the scope of space exploration and commercial spaceflight. Falcon Heavy has been selected by NASA to launch critical weather satellites, interplanetary probes including Europa Clipper (Jupiter) and Dragonfly (Saturn), and the upcoming Nancy Grace Roman telescope, designed to study exoplanets and dark energy and matter. • Perfect Performance Record: As of March 31, 2026, Falcon Heavy had successfully completed 11 launches, all resulting in successful payload delivery. Falcon Heavy flown boosters have also safely completed 18 total recoveries and 16 reflights. It was certified for National Security Space Launch (NSSL) in 2019, authorizing its use for U.S. government operations alongside Falcon 9. Starship. A fully reusable two-stage super heavy-lift launch vehicle, Starship stands to fundamentally transform spaceflight by making it more accessible, cost-effective, and scalable than ever before. Comprising the Super Heavy booster (powered by 33 Raptor engines) and the Starship upper stage (with three sea-level and three vacuum Raptor engines), Starship V3 is designed to deliver 100 metric tons to space in a fully reusable configuration while enabling rapid turnaround times akin to commercial aviation, and future generations could reach 200 metric tons, potentially as soon as Starship V4. To date, we have executed 12 Starship flight tests, with our 12th flight test in May 2026 debuting the next generation Starship vehicle and Super Heavy booster, powered by the next evolution of our Raptor engine and launching from a newly designed pad at Starbase. We expect Starship to commence payload delivery to orbit in the second half of 2026. We have achieved innovative milestones, including multiple successful ascents of the world's most powerful rocket; the launch, return, catch, and reuse of the Super Heavy booster; the return of its upper stage within three meters of its intended landing point; the transfer of approximately five metric tons of cryogenic propellant between tanks while in space, a first of its kind operation that provides key data for future full-scale propellant transfer operations; successful in-space relights of the Raptor engines; and multiple controlled reentries through Earth's atmosphere. The purpose of flight tests is to collect data so no result, even loss of a vehicle, is considered a failure because we learn something. Starship is a key enabler of our growth objectives, including the deployment of next-generation V3 satellites, satellite-to-mobile constellations, and orbital AI compute at scale. Achieving our targeted launch cadence with Starship will require significant progress on several key milestones and the investment of significant capital resources. These include: securing additional land and developing high-rate launch sites and supporting infrastructure across multiple locations; scaling production of Starship vehicles and Raptor engines; constructing propellant production facilities, including air separation units and methane liquefaction plants co-located with launch sites; securing sufficient power supply; and obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals, particularly from the FAA, to support a high launch cadence while addressing public safety and environmental considerations. Our development of Starship and its associated infrastructure assumes continued successful iteration through flight testing, regulatory progress, supply chain scaling, and cost reduction driven by increasing reusability. We have made substantial investments in manufacturing scale-up, including Starfactory for high-volume vehicle production, multiple large-scale vertical integration and refurbishment facilities, additional launch towers, test infrastructure, propellant production assets, and power generation capabilities. Full reusability of Starship's upper stage is not required to deploy our V3 satellites and V2 Mobile satellites in LEO. In-orbit refueling is also not required for any of these LEO programs and is instead intended for missions beyond LEO, such as lunar and interplanetary transport. Starship's substantial payload capacity to LEO, even in partially reusable or expendable configurations, enables meaningful progress toward these objectives. We have already demonstrated Super Heavy booster reusability in multiple integrated flight tests. As a result, meaningful advancement across the deployment of next-generation V3 satellites, satellite-to-mobile constellations, and the orbital AI compute program is not dependent on achieving full reusability. -97- ’ ’ ’ ’


 
Starship Overview STARSHIP HEIGHT 4 124.4 m / 408 ft DIAMETER 9 m / 29.5 ft MASS PAYLOAD CAPACITY TO LEO PAYLOAD CAPACITY TO GTO 5,533,000 kg / 12,198,177 lbs 100+ Mt 180+ Mt PAYLOAD CAPACITY TO MARS 100+ Mt FIRST LAUNCH April 20, 2023 Please refer to the definition of 'payload capacity to orbit' in the Glossary for additional details • Full and Rapid Reusability and Drastically Reduced Launch Costs: Starship's core design innovation is its full and rapid approach to reusability: both stages return to Earth for catch and rapid refurbishment. The Super Heavy booster returns to the launch site following stage separation and is caught mid-air by the launch tower's mechanical aims, also known as "chopsticks," to facilitate immediate inspection, refurbishment, and relaunch. The Starship upper stage, after orbital delivery or missions beyond, is designed to reenter protected by advanced heat shield tiles, execute a propulsive landing burn, and be similarly caught mid-air by the launch tower's mechanical aims. We believe that Starship's full and rapid reusability will enable sub- one hour reflights, causing a paradigm shift in launch cadence. • Improvements in Engine Development Underpin Starship's Massive Payload Capacity: With a payload bay volume rivaling the pressurized sections of the International Space Station, Starship is designed to deploy structures like space station modules, large telescopes, our next-generation V3 satellites, and future AI compute satellites. Starship is powered by 39 Raptor engines, which are full- flow staged combustion cycle rocket engines burning cryogenic liquid methane and liquid oxygen. Raptor engines offer nearly triple the thrust per engine, higher efficiency, and better performance for heavy-lift and deep space missions compared to the Merlin engine used on Falcon 9. Each Raptor 3 engine in Starship saves nearly a ton of vehicle mass compared to previous generations by removing heat shields and simplifying plumbing. Starship's capacity enables the next leg of our growth, including scaling our Starlink Mobile constellation and orbital AI compute. • Orbital Refueling: Starship's expected orbital refueling capability will allow tanker variants to refill the upper stage in LEO and extend its range for deep-space missions beyond Earth's orbit. These capabilities are expected to revolutionize mission architecture, with each Starship designed to be capable of transporting large numbers of people or hundreds of metric tons of cargo to destinations like the surface of the Moon and Mars. • Sustainable Human Exploration Beyond Earth: Starship was designed from the beginning to fly to other worlds and enable self-growing bases on the Moon, an entire civilization on Mars, and ultimately expansion beyond our solar system. As NASA's Human Landing System for Artemis, Starship is built to deliver astronauts and cargo to the lunar surface and serve as the key enabler for supporting permanent presence on the Moon. -98- t ver i ’ r’ r “ ” ’ r i ’ ’ i ’ i ’ ’ ’


 
• Versatility Across Mission Profiles: Beyond deep space, Starship is designed to adapt to diverse roles including the U.S. Space Force's Rocket Cargo program for rapid point-to-point global logistics, Starlink and other commercial satellite constellations, in-orbit manufacturing components and hardware, space tourism, and others. Starship is designed to enable a step-function advancement in our capabilities, featuring rapid, full reusability of both the Super Heavy booster and the Starship spacecraft to achieve unprecedented throughput at significantly reduced costs compared to existing systems. As Starship progresses toward full operational utilization, the Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy platforms will remain key assets for specialized missions, including NASA crew rotations and national security payloads. Dragon Cargo Spacecraft. The Dragon cargo spacecraft is an uncrewed vehicle designed primarily for transporting cargo to and from the International Space Station under NASA's Commercial Resupply Services program. As an evolution of the original Dragon spacecraft, this vehicle represents a critical component of our portfolio, enabling reliable, cost-effective logistics for space missions. The spacecraft consists of a pressurized section for environmentally controlled cargo and an unpressurized trunk section for additional payloads. It has a launch payload mass of up to 6,000 kilograms and a return payload mass of 3,000 kilograms, making it uniquely suited for both delivery and retrieval of scientific experiments, supplies, and hardware, and establishing SpaceX as what we believe is the only company capable of returning significant amounts of cargo from the International Space Station back to Earth. Dragon Cargo Overview DRAGON HEIGHT DIAMETER 8.1 m / 26.7 ft 4 m / 13 ft SPACECRAFT VOLUME TRUNK VOLUME LAUNCH PAYLOAD MASS 9.3 m' / 328 ft' 37 m' / 1,300 ft' 6,000 kg / 13,228 lbs RETURN PAYLOAD MASS 3,000 kg / 6,614 lbs FIRST FLIGHT December 8, 2010 V Please refer to the definitions of 'launch payload mass' and 'return payload mass' in the Glossary far additional details • Key features: Key highlights of the Dragon cargo spacecraft include its propulsion system with 16 Draco thrusters for precise orbital maneuvering, autonomous docking capabilities via NASA's International Docking System Standard (IDSS), and a trunk equipped with solar panels for power generation during flight. • Launch vehicle, return mechanism and mission profiles: The spacecraft is launched atop the Falcon 9 rocket and returns to Earth via parachute-assisted splashdown in the ocean, where it is recovered for refurbishment and reuse. Dragon supports extended in-orbit durations, typically spending several weeks docked to the International Space Station before undocking with returned cargo. • Historic accomplishments: Launched by Falcon 9 in 2012, our Dragon spacecraft became the first commercial spacecraft to deliver cargo to and from the International Space Station and, eight years later, the first privately built vehicle to fly humans to the orbiting laboratory. This achievement ended U.S. reliance on foreign vehicles for International Space Station resupply following the Space Shuttle's -99- ’ ’ ’ tl ’


 
retirement in 2011. The original Dragon variant (later known as Dragon 1) established a critical role in advancing research on the space station as the only spacecraft capable of returning significant amounts of cargo to Earth. The upgraded cargo spacecraft pioneered autonomous docking without robotic aim assistance, delivered major hardware upgrades for the station including new solar arrays, and recently debuted the ability to reboost the station's altitude. It remains the only reusable cargo spacecraft in operation. As of March 31, 2026, our Dragon spacecraft has completed over 30 cargo missions to the International Space Station. Dragon Crew Spacecraft. Dragon is engineered to fly humans to and from Earth orbit, including the International Space Station. The spacecraft is designed to accommodate up to seven passengers, with a pressurized cabin for crew habitation, life support systems, and cargo. • Key features: Dragon Crew spacecraft is equipped with advanced avionics, touchscreen interfaces for manual control, and an integrated trunk with solar power generation. Dragon Crew's propulsion includes 16 Draco thrusters for orbital adjustments and 8 Super Draco engines for its launch escape system, enabling rapid separation from the rocket in the unlikely event of an emergency. • Launch vehicle, return mechanism and mission profiles: The spacecraft is launched atop the Falcon 9 rocket and returns to Earth via parachute-assisted splashdown in the ocean, where it is recovered for refurbishment and reuse. The design emphasizes reusability, with vehicles certified for multiple flights after refurbishment, and supports missions lasting up to nine months on the International Space Station. • Historic accomplishments: Revolutionary accomplishments of Dragon include being the first privately developed spacecraft to transport humans to and from the International Space Station, achieved during the Demo-2 mission in May 2020 which carried NASA astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken. This milestone returned human spaceflight capabilities to the United States for the first time since the Space Shuttle's retirement in 2011, reducing dependence on foreign spacecraft. Dragon has enabled regular astronaut rotations under NASA's Commercial Crew Program, flying nearly 15 successful Crew and Private Astronaut missions to the International Space Station to date, while pioneering space tourism by carrying commercial astronauts on private flights. Its autonomous docking technology, life support for extended durations, and abort system have set new safety standards achieving a flawless record in crewed operations. 4.3.10.2 Connectivity Starlink Consumer Broadband Starlink Consumer Broadband is a broadband network powered by our global LEO satellite constellation, designed to deliver high-speed, low-latency internet connectivity anywhere on Earth. The service provides fiber- like download speeds with latency low enough to support intensive real-time applications, such as content streaming, video calls, and online gaming, while requiring only visible sight to the sky and electricity for installation. Since launch, Starlink has scaled rapidly, serving approximately 10.3 million subscribers across 164 countries, territories, and other markets as of March 31, 2026. Starlink Consumer Broadband is enabled by the largest satellite constellation in human history with approximately 9,000 broadband satellites as of March 31, 2026, operating in LEO to deliver latency comparable to many terrestrial broadband connections. We launched approximately 3,100 Starlink broadband and mobile satellites in 2025, which is approximately five times more than the total number of active satellites in the entire second largest LEO satellite constellation. We provide download speeds exceeding 400 Mbps with round-trip latencies as low as 21 milliseconds — perfoimance that rivals or surpasses traditional terrestrial broadband while also reaching locations no traditional fiber or cellular network can economically serve. Satellite-based communications are uniquely suited to reach underserved and remote areas by delivering coverage directly from LEO without requiring local infrastructure. In contrast, terrestrial networks depend on costly, ground-based buildouts that are often uneconomical in low-density or hard-to-access regions. As of March 31, 2026, the constellation incorporated over 23,000 inter-satellite lasers that create a dynamic mesh network in space, enabling traffic to route through orbit rather than relying solely on terrestrial backhaul infrastructure. Satellites autonomously maneuver to avoid collisions and are designed for controlled end-of-life deorbit, supporting long- teun orbital sustainability. Successive generations of our broadband satellites, including V3 satellites, are expected to increase throughput, power capacity, and network efficiency, with production vertically integrated and perfouned largely in-house. Our focus on vertical integration has allowed us to reduce the Starlink satellite manufacturing cost per one Gbps of downlink capacity by approximately three times from Starlink V1 Broadband -100- r ’ ’ tl ’ ’ – r rm it rm


 
satellites to V2 Mini satellites. We expect to achieve a total cost reduction of nine times from Starlink V1 Broadband satellites to V3 satellites. Starlink Broadband V2 Mini and V3 Satellites V2 MINI Launched February 2023 Downlink Capacity 96 GBPS V3 Launch Targeted for 2026 Downlink Capacity 1,024 GBPS On Earth, users access the network through proprietary Starlink teuninals that we design and manufacture. As of March 31, 2026, we have reduced the cost of Starlink teuninals — achieving an approximately 59% reduction in the average manufacturing cost of a Starlink Kit since 2022 — while improving perfounance and reliability, which we believe collectively provides us a meaningful and durable competitive advantage over other terrestrial and satellite broadband providers. Our portfolio of teuninals, which we are able to manufacture and sell for a fraction of the cost of teuninals used by other satellite internet providers, includes three primary consumer configurations including: a Standard teuninal designed for fixed residential and small business use, featuring a wide field of view; a Mini teuninal roughly the size of a laptop, designed for mobility and travel use cases with a built-in Wi-Fi router and the ability to operate on portable battery systems or 12V vehicle power; and the Perfounance teuninal, designed for demanding environments, with a maximum download speed over 450 Mbps and a higher power consumption of 110W or more under load. Each type of teuninal is designed to be quick and seamless for a consumer to self-set up, support in-motion connectivity up to speeds of 100 mph, and deliver global, oceanwide coverage for consumer maritime use. We believe that this combination of low cost, portability (particularly in the case of our Starlink Mini telininal), and ease of installation of our teuninals will help scale our consumer broadband offering. We monetize Starlink primarily through subscription plans paired with hardware sales. Service tiers vary by speed, priority access, geographic coverage, and mobility requirements, including Local and Global Priority options for small to medium sized business, enterprise, and government Starlink customers. As the constellation scales and capacity expands with next-generation satellites, we expect Starlink to continue growing as a global, recurring-revenue connectivity platfoun and foundational layer of a space-enabled digital economy. Enterprise Solutions Enterprise Solutions offers the same fundamental advantages of Starlink Consumer Broadband — high throughput, low-latency, and global coverage — into mission-critical, in-motion, and distributed connectivity environments for enterprises. Starlink's architecture is designed to deliver consistent perfounance across routes, oceans, and remote industrial sites. Enterprise services are supported by dedicated hardware configurations and commercial structures tailored to usage intensity, service-level requirements, and fleet-scale deployments. -101- rm rm – – rm rm rm rm rm rm rm rm rm rm rm – – ’ rm


 
Aviation Connectivity Starlink Aviation provides broadband connectivity for commercial and private aircraft, enabling high- quality internet service for passengers and crew from gate to gate, including during taxi and prior to take-off. The service is differentiated by materially lower latency and higher throughput than legacy in-flight connectivity systems, enabling streaming, video conferencing, and real-time applications at scale while in flight — even bandwidth-intensive applications such as gaming, previously impractical from an airplane. Starlink's global network is designed to eliminate "dead zones" and supports performance on polar and high-latitude routes that can be challenging for traditional providers. In recent years, we have assembled dedicated sales and engineering teams to market and support fleet-wide conversions in the aviation sector. This has enabled partnerships with many of the world's leading airlines, including United Airlines, Southwest Airlines, American Airlines, Qatar Airways, Lufthansa Group, British Airways, Alaska Airlines, and Hawaiian Airlines, many of which have implemented or committed to fleet-wide Starlink installations for seamless in-flight connectivity. Maritime Connectivity Starlink Maritime provides broadband connectivity for vessels operating in coastal and deep-ocean environments, supporting both operational requirements (navigation, telemetry, maintenance, logistics) and end- user connectivity (crew welfare and passenger internet). The service is designed for consistent coverage regardless of proximity to land, including routes that may experience service degradation under legacy satellite architectures. Starlink teuninals are engineered for marine operating conditions and are designed to be installed or swapped efficiently alongside existing onboard communications systems, reducing downtime during retrofit. For many maritime operators, Starlink functions as a wholesale or "syndicated" connectivity layer: vessel owners or cruise operators purchase and allocate capacity across passengers, crew, and critical ship systems, including when reselling Wi-Fi access as an onboard service. Pricing structures vary by vessel class, expected consumption, coverage requirements (coastal vs. ocean), and priority level, and are generally implemented through recurring subscription arrangements with fleet-based commercial teens. To support fleet-wide conversions in the maritime sector, we have partnered with premier cruise operators, such as Carnival Corporation, Royal Caribbean Group, MSC Cruises, and Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings, for full-fleet deployments that deliver reliable high-speed internet across thousands of vessels worldwide. Land Mobility and IoT Starlink supports in-motion connectivity for land mobility and industrial IoT applications where terrestrial networks are intermittent or unavailable. These deployments include fleet vehicles, remote field operations, and ruggedized use cases that require continuous broadband while moving, often across large geographies. The service is particularly relevant for emergency responders, disaster recovery, and critical infrastructure continuity, where resilient communications materially impact safety and response effectiveness. In industrial settings, Starlink can serve as a connectivity backbone for connected equipment and telemetry-driven workflows, enabling real-time monitoring and remote operations in agriculture, energy, and logistics environments. Commercial deployments are typically structured around fleets or enterprise accounts, with hardware and service tiers aligned to mobility requirements, usage intensity, and priority performance. We have partnered with land mobility operators, including John Deere and the California Fire Department, as well as passenger rail operators such as Brightline (Florida), and Italo Treno, to provide remote monitoring and management of their fleets. Starlink Fixed Site Starlink Fixed Site is designed to provide primary or backup connectivity for distributed business locations globally, including sites that are difficult to serve economically with fiber or that require redundancy for uptime. Starlink's lack of dependence on wireline infrastructure — which is subject to damage or disruption from natural disasters, conflict, and other events — makes it well-suited for businesses that rely on continuous broadband connectivity and cannot afford a terrestrial offering going temporarily "offline." Customers deploy Starlink to support point-of-sale systems, corporate networking, video and security systems, and business continuity, including during disasters and localized outages where terrestrial infrastructure may be impaired. The service is differentiated by rapid installability, geographic flexibility, and reliable perfoimance in remote and hard-to-reach locations, making it suitable for retailers, industrial operators, and remote facilities (including offshore and field sites). Pricing models include multiple tiers and configurations depending on speed, priority access, coverage footprint, and the number of sites deployed, with typical enterprise arrangements structured as recurring subscriptions paired with hardware. -102- ti – ’ “ ” ’ t ti rm “ ” rm ’ – – “ ” r


 
Government Solutions We provide U.S. civil, state, and local government agencies as well as international civil government agencies high-speed, resilient connectivity for public services, social impact, humanitarian efforts, and disaster response in even the most remote and challenging environments. Examples include support for the FEMA in coordinating disaster recovery after hurricanes and wildfires, the NOAA for at-sea testing and environmental monitoring, the Government of the Philippines for linking remote islands, schools, and public institutions, the Government of Jamaica for improving digital access in remote and maritime areas, and the Government of Ecuador for supporting education and healthcare connectivity in isolated communities. Separately, we operate Starshield, a secure satellite network designed specifically for national security applications. Built on the technology, manufacturing, and launch infrastructure that underpin Starlink, Starshield is focused on three core mission areas: Earth observation, global secure communications, and hosted payloads. Starshield satellites are designed to integrate a wide range of sensors and instruments, allowing government customers to deploy mission-specific capabilities in LEO without having to design, build, and launch standalone spacecraft for every program. Starshield builds on the end-to-end data encryption used in our commercial network by adding high- assurance cryptographic capabilities tailored to military and other government requirements. By combining this security posture with our high-cadence launch capability and evolving Starlink-derived infrastructure, we aim to offer a scalable national security platform that can be updated, replenished, and expanded as mission needs change over time. Starlink Mobile We are extending the reach of Starlink beyond fixed and mobility tell_rinals through our mobile service, connecting smartphones (with no modifications or incremental hardware) and other terrestrial devices directly to our satellites. We aim to entirely eliminate mobile "dead zones." By using satellites that effectively function as cell towers in space, we enable data, over-the-top voice, video and messaging in remote and hard-to-reach locations where terrestrial networks have historically been unavailable or unreliable. Starlink Mobile is already commercially available for messaging in select markets and has been used to support emergency communications following natural disasters, demonstrating its strength as resilient, infrastructure-independent connectivity. Our mobile constellation builds on the same LEO architecture as our broadband network, with satellites specifically designed to communicate directly with everyday LTE handsets and IoT devices without requiring specialized or additional hardware. These satellites use exclusive licensed spectrum, allowing us to integrate into MNOs' existing networks while delivering coverage far beyond the reach of ground-based towers. Since launching the first mobile satellites in early 2024, we have rapidly scaled the network to hundreds of in-orbit spacecraft and demonstrated key technical milestones, including the first SMS tests within days of launch, live video calls, and public posts sent directly from standard smartphones through a Starlink Mobile satellite. Our ability to design, manufacture and launch these satellites on our own vehicles enables us to iterate quickly on payloads and software, expanding capacity and performance over time. Today, our Starlink Mobile service is delivered in partnership with leading MNOs around the world. We are initially focused on messaging for consumer subscribers in areas with limited or no terrestrial coverage, with a roadmap to support broader data, voice and IoT services. We partner with approximately 30 MNOs across six continents, including T-Mobile in the United States, and other international operators including One NZ, Optus, Telstra, Rogers, KDDI, Salt, Entel, Kyivstar, and VMO2. Through these partnerships, we enable consumers, businesses and public-sector customers to use their existing phones in more places, support critical connectivity during disasters and power outages, and open new applications for low-bandwidth mobile and IoT devices. -103- r rm “ ” ’

We, however, often deorbit satellites before the end of their useful lives, primarily to reduce degradation risks that could impair our autonomous collision avoidance system and compromise constellation safety. To date, our autonomous collision avoidance system has not experienced any failures resulting in satellite loss, and satellite losses from other causes remain de minimis. 4.3.10.3 AI Grok Grok represents a core pillar of our mission to advance humanity's understanding of the universe through the development of truth-seeking artificial intelligence. Grok is designed and optimized for rigorous reasoning, real-time infoimation synthesis, and transparent outputs, with a product philosophy centered on intellectual honesty, first-principles thinking, and engagement with complex topics. We are designing Grok as a truth-seeking AI model, built on our founder Elon Musk's mission to enable humanity to understand the universe. We believe that accomplishing this mission requires a truth-seeking approach to AI, which we define as the active, relentless pursuit of what is objectively true about reality, and grounded in evidence, logic, empirical data, and first principles thinking. We consider this approach as essential to achieve our objective to understand and explain what the universe appears to be doing, as accurately as current knowledge allows, and believe that maximizing truth seeking ties to our development goals of driving superior model outputs and higher utility intelligence. Our goal is to understand and explain what the universe appears to be doing, as accurately as current knowledge allows. In pursuit of this truth-seeking objective, Grok also benefits from its integration with X, our real-time information, entertainment, and free speech platform. This direct, real-time access to the information and human discourse on X enhances Grok's truth-seeking capabilities by grounding outputs in up-to-date knowledge and diverse viewpoints. Since the initial release of Grok 1, we have iterated rapidly, releasing Grok 2, Grok 3, and, the current version, Grok 4, each delivering material improvements in pre-training, reasoning depth, multimodal capabilities, latency, and scale. Building on this trajectory, we expect to continue scaling Grok through subsequent generations. Ongoing training of next-generation models is expected to scale toward multiple trillions of parameters, which could represent a step change in reasoning in depth and overall intelligence. In this context, the number of parameters refers to the scale of the model, where parameters are the internal numerical values, such as "weights," -104- ’ r ’ ’ ‑ “ ”


 
that are adjusted during training to enable the model to recognize patterns and relationships in data. A larger number of parameters generally allows the model to capture more complex relationships, store greater amounts of knowledge, and achieve higher levels of reasoning capability. Our accelerated development cadence positions Grok among the fastest-advancing frontier models relative to peers, including OpenAl, Anthropic, and Google. Grok is differentiated by its emphasis on real-time data integration, particularly through insights derived from the X platfolin (subject to some limitations for certain content), enabling dynamic awareness of current events and user discourse, as well as by explicit investment in reasoning transparency and explainability. Grok enhances the X ecosystem by improving content understanding, personalization, and recommendation systems, thereby increasing user engagement and platfoun intelligence. We are currently developing next-generation iterations, including Grok-5, which are expected to further expand reasoning fidelity, multimodal integration, and domain- specific perfoimance. Terrestrial Al Compute Our terrestrial AI compute foil's the backbone of the Grok model family and is anchored by the COLOSSUS and COLOSSUS II data centers that boast some of the world's largest and most advanced AI training clusters. COLOSSUS and COLOSSUS II collectively provide approximately 1.0 gigawatt of compute power, with the additional power capacity available for data center operations. We brought the first cluster of COLOSSUS online in 122 days, repurposing the shell of an existing factory, and the first cluster of COLOSSUS II online even faster in 91 days. As an illustrative comparison, an industry benchmark to bring online a 100 megawatt greenfield data center is approximately two years.26 We also demonstrated a significant improvement in cost efficiency, achieving data center construction costs for COLOSSUS II that are considerably lower than industry benchmarks on a per megawatt basis. COLOSSUS II is capable of operating entirely by our self-built behind-the-meter gigawatt-scale natural gas power plant. Our data centers are integrated with the world's largest Megapack deployment, providing additional layers of reliability and operating performance. At all our existing data centers we have employed a brownfield retrofit strategy leveraging existing industrial sites, advanced direct-to-chip cooling to support higher rack densities, and high-speed networking. The clusters deploy leading-edge GPUs to maximize training throughput and model perfounance. The next phase of expansion at COLOSSUS II is designed to train our next-generation Grok-5 AI model. As we continue to expand our AI compute infrastructure, we will also continue to enhance our power capabilities utilizing a combination of grid-power and behind-the-meter natural gas power plant buildouts. At COLOSSUS, our grid power capabilities are designed to purchase power from the grid as available, and to rely on our behind-the-meter, self-generated power and Megapack installations when grid power is curtailed.

• Starbase, Texas: Development, manufacturing, testing, and launch of Starship currently takes place at Starbase, home to SpaceX headquarters and one of the world's first commercial spaceports designed for orbital missions. The site is located at the newly created city of Starbase in Cameron County, Texas, along the Gulf of America. Its infrastructure includes Starfactory, a manufacturing facility designed to mass produce Starship and Super Heavy at scale; a large office structure co-locating engineering and production personnel; and large, vertical integration buildings including the upcoming Gigabay, which will be able to support Starship and Super Heavy vehicles up to 85 meters (279 feet) tall and will provide 24 work cells for integration and refurbishment work, along with cranes capable of lifting up to 400 tons. Starbase also has an orbital launch pad for flight of the world's most powerful rocket, complete with one of the tallest launch towers in the world, specially designed to integrate, test, launch, and catch Starship and Super Heavy vehicles, with an additional pad underway to support Starship V3. The Starbase team also operates a site for full and subscale vehicle structural testing, static fires, and component level testing. Starbase is also home to several hundred SpaceX employees and their families, many of whom have relocated from across the country to the community to support the development and operation of Starship. SpaceX, in partnership with the newly foamed city, is developing local infrastructure and municipal services, including utilities, governance, schools, and environmental conservation initiatives, to support a world-class, concentrated engineering and manufacturing community focused on the rapid advancement of Starship and SpaceX's long-teen mission. This close integration of residential life, engineering, and manufacturing around a single program enables a mission-focused environment designed to accelerate development, testing, and launch operations. • Hawthorne, California: Our original flagship facility in Hawthorne, California manufactures Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy first and second stages, Dragon Crew and Dragon Cargo spacecraft, Merlin engines, Starship's Raptor engines, Starlink User Teuninals, as well as other various Starship components. The site supports high-reliability production for hundreds of successful missions, including NASA-certified crew rotations. We also maintain a corporate presence in Hawthorne. • McGregor, Texas: The McGregor rocket engine complex is the most active rocket development and testing facility in the world. It serves as the primary site for qualification, acceptance, and post-flight testing of Merlin and Raptor engines. It features 15 specialized test stands, including dedicated vertical stands for Raptor engines and multiple stands for Falcon 9's Merlin engines, as well as component-level testing facilities for Starship hardware, including composite overwrapped pressure vessels, tanks, and experimental systems. • Redmond, Washington: The Redmond Starlink satellite manufacturing facility has produced an average of approximately 70 satellites per week (approximately 3,640 per year at full rate) from December 2025 to April 2026, covering bus structures, phased-array antennas, propulsion, solar arrays, and inter-satellite lasers, enabling rapid Starlink constellation expansion. • Bastrop, Texas: We build the majority of Starlink products at our manufacturing facility in Bastrop, Texas, which opened in 2023, producing tens of thousands of Starlink Kits per day and all of the current generation Starlink Standard and Perfoimance Kits. In 2026, we expect to more than double the size of the Bastrop facility, expanding our design and manufacturing capabilities to support new Starlink products, plus deepening our vertical integration by adding the production of Starlink gateway antennas, solar cells and AI compute satellites. • Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral, Florida: SpaceX operations in Florida span across NASA's Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, which includes two active launch sites — Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) and Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) — Falcon booster and Dragon spacecraft refurbishing facilities, launch operations, and payload processing buildings. Both launch sites support critical missions to GEO and the International Space Station while also providing launch opportunities to a wide range of low, mid, and polar orbit inclinations for science and national security missions. SpaceX also utilizes Landing Zones 40 and 2 at the Cape, which support Return to Launch Site landings for Falcon boosters ahead of recovery and refurbishment for future missions. Once recovered, flight hardware is refurbished at one of two state-of-the-art SpaceX facilities, HangarX and X2, on Kennedy Space Center. These facilities also house our Falcon Launch and Landing Control -108- ’ ’ r ’ rm i ’ rm ’ r ’ – –


 
Center, where our Dragon spacecraft are refurbished and prepared for their next missions after they are recovered off the coast of southern California, where we produce Starship heatshield tiles in the Bakery, and where we process customer payloads before launch in our Payload Processing Facility. For future launches, SpaceX is expanding its operations in Florida to bring Starship to the Cape. In addition to the under-construction Starship launch pad at LC-39A expected to be completed by the end of 2026, SpaceX is constructing Space Launch Complex 37 (SLC-37) on Cape Canaveral Space Force Station as another Starship launch site. SL C-37 will host two orbital launch pads, including up to two towers for Starship launch, catch, and testing operations, culminating in a total of four operational launch pads for Starship by the end of 2027. SpaceX is also building a new integration facility called Gigabay, next to its HangarX location at Kennedy Space Center by late 2026. In connection with preparing leased real property for our launch operations, we make significant capital improvements and install extensive real and personal property at these government-owned sites. The launch facilities we build are a unique capital improvement compared to standard commercial use sites because the federal government specifically designates these launch sites for aerospace activities, such as rocket launches. Given the specific use requirements of these government-owned sites, we have historically entered into handover agreements with the relevant government entities upon expiration or termination of the leases, pursuant to which the improvements are transferred to the government rather than removed. This fact pattern has historically been the case with previous leases such as at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. • Vandenberg Space Force Base, Space Launch Complex 4: Space Launch Complex 4 East at Vandenberg Space Force Base is our West Coast launch site and serves as our primary facility for polar and high-inclination orbit missions critical to Starlink constellation deployment, national security payloads, Earth observation satellites, and select lunar trajectories. The facility includes a modernized orbital launch pad optimized for Falcon 9 launches, featuring a fixed launch mount, integration tower, propellant loading infrastructure, flame trench, and support systems enabling frequent operations. Adjacent Space Launch Complex 4 West functions as a dedicated Falcon 9 booster landing zone, supporting downrange recoveries to maximize reusability. Please refer to "Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral, Florida" above for additional information regarding our lease arrangements with government entities. • Memphis, Tennessee and Southaven, Mississippi: We operate a cluster of high-density data centers in the Greater Memphis Area extending into northern Mississippi along the state border, to power training and inference for frontier AI models, including the Grok family. The flagship COLOSSUS supercomputer campus is located on Paul R. Lowry Road in Memphis, Tennessee; the COLOSSUS II facilities are located on Tulane Road in Memphis, Tennessee and on Stateline Road in Southaven, Mississippi. • Palo Alto, California: The corporate headquarters for our AI operations following the acquisition of xAI in February 2026 is located in Palo Alto, California. This location, under long-term lease, houses our advanced AI research, development, and engineering teams and is strategically situated in Silicon Valley to attract and retain top AI research talent. The engineers responsible for the design, training, and continued evolution of Grok, our proprietary frontier AI model, are based at this facility. In addition to our infrastructure and facilities across the United States, we also operate a fleet of recovery vessels, autonomous spaceport drone ships ("ASDS"), and a network of Starlink ground stations. • Our recovery fleet: Our fleet of ASDS forms the maritime backbone of SpaceX's reusable rocket architecture, enabling high-probability downrange booster landings for Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy missions while maximizing vehicle recovery and rapid refurbishment. The core ASDS fleet consists of three operational vessels: "Of Course I Still Love You," the pioneering East Coast-to-Pacific vessel homeported at the Port of Long Beach, California, and dedicated to supporting primarily polar and high- inclination launches from Vandenberg Space Force Base with its large landing deck and thruster-based dynamic positioning; "Just Read the Instructions," stationed at Port Canaveral, Florida, serving East Coast operations from Cape Canaveral and Kennedy Space Center; and "A Shortfall of Gravitas," the newest and most advanced addition since 2021, also based at Port Canaveral with enhanced autonomy, station-keeping precision, and upgraded deck infrastructure to handle frequent, high-cadence missions. These autonomous ships have collectively facilitated hundreds of successful booster touchdowns, dramatically reducing expendable flight profiles and enabling the reuse of boosters 34 times as of March -109- “ l, ” “ ” ’ “ ” “ ” “ ”


 
31, 2026. Complementing the drone ships are dedicated support vessels for fairing half recovery, such as "Bob" and "Doug," named after astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley, and Dragon retrieval vessel "Shannon," named in honor of astronaut Shannon Walker. These support vessels ensure comprehensive ocean-based recovery operations across Atlantic and Pacific theaters and underpin our constellation deployments, national security launches, and crewed missions while advancing toward full reusability for Starship in future offshore scenarios. • Starlink ground stations: A Starlink ground station, also referred to as a gateway, is a terrestrial relay station that communicates with our satellite constellation. These stations transmit data between satellites and terrestrial internet networks. We operate ground stations around the world, with over 400 sites globally. 4.4 Competition Our principal sources of competition vary based on the segment and market in which our business operates. In Space, we compete with launch service providers that transport small, medium, and heavy payloads and astronauts to Earth's orbit and beyond. Participants in this market include established aerospace and defense companies, emerging commercial launch providers, and national space agencies. Key established aerospace and defense competitors providing launch services include, among others, United Launch Alliance, a joint venture between Boeing and Lockheed Martin, Arianespace, a French-based aerospace company operating a family of European-developed rockets, and Northrop Grumman, manufacturer of the Cygnus cargo spacecraft. Emerging commercial launch providers include Blue Origin, which has developed launch vehicles intended to compete with our Falcon 9 rocket, and Rocket Lab, which operates in the small-lift launch market but is expanding into medium- lift payloads, as well as other domestic competitors such as Firefly Aerospace and Relativity Space. While we typically do not compete directly for the same missions, national space agencies also provide launch services in their respective markets. However, the launch services market is characterized by significant barriers to entry, including substantial capital requirements, advanced technological expertise, regulatory licenses and approvals, and established relationships with government and commercial customers. Competition in this market is based on factors that include launch reliability and cadence, payload capacity, mission flexibility, manufacturing capabilities and price. For this reason, while the established aerospace and defense competitors and emerging commercial launch providers may provide launch services at varying degrees of scale, we believe that SpaceX holds a meaningful advantage in terms of the breadth of our launch solutions and services and the cadence at which we are able to launch, and thus a significant competitive advantage relative to these players. In Connectivity, we compete with operators of terrestrial and satellite communications infrastructure and providers of satellite-to-mobile connectivity solutions, including terrestrial fixed network providers, terrestrial mobile network companies, and other satellite service providers, as described below: • Consumer and Enterprise Broadband. Our Starlink Consumer and Enterprise broadband offerings compete with terrestrial fixed network providers, terrestrial mobile network companies, and other satellite service providers. Terrestrial fixed network providers include operators of cable and fiber networks such as Verizon, Comcast, AT&T, T-Mobile, Lumen, Charter Communications, Google Fiber, Astound, BT, Deutsche Telekom, and Liberty Global. Terrestrial mobile network companies also operate land-based infrastructure, including wireless antennas affixed to mobile towers used to provide fixed wireless services, and include AT&T, Telefonica, T-Mobile, Verizon, and Vodafone Group. These network providers typically serve customers in one or more countries (for example, Verizon in the United States, or Telefonica in Spain and Brazil, among others), but are not global players insofar as they do not sell to a global customer base, nor does their network infrastructure exist globally. Satellite service providers include, among others, GEO satellite network operators such as EchoStar, SES, Telesat Corporation (Telesat) GEO, and Viasat, as well as current and planned LEO and MEO constellations including Amazon LEO, Blue Origin's TeraWave, Eutelsat OneWeb, Iridium NEXT and Telesat Lightspeed. Some of these service providers are also launch customers of SpaceX as they contract with us to launch their satellite constellations into orbit. • Government Solutions. Our Starlink broadband offering for government use cases competes primarily with the same terrestrial network providers and satellite service providers with which our Starlink Consumer and Enterprise broadband offerings compete, as well as defense prime contractors. In certain -110- “ ” “ ” “ ” ’ ó ó i ’


 
cases, these providers also have dedicated subsidiaries or business units focused on serving government customers, such as Telesat Government Solutions. • Starlink Mobile. Our Starlink Mobile offering competes with other satellite-to-mobile satellite operators including, among others, AST SpaceMobile, Lynk, Globalstar and Skylo. The satellite connectivity market involves significant barriers to entry, including substantial capital requirements, advanced technological capabilities, access to spectrum and orbital resources, regulatory licenses and approvals, and the development of relationships with government, enterprise and commercial customers. Competition in this market is based on factors that include network coverage, capacity, latency and reliability, spectrum access, density of urban environments, satellite deployment capability and efficiency, price and user acquisition, retention, and experience. In AI, we compete with developers of foundational AI models and providers of AI products and services, as well as general purpose and vertical search engines, infounation services, online advertising platforms and social networks. Participants in this market include large technology companies, emerging AI model developers and providers of AI-enabled products and services. Key competitors in these markets include, among others, AI model developers and platfolin providers such as OpenAl, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and various open source model providers, as well as social networks such as Threads (owned by Meta), Reddit, and TikTok. As we continue to build out our AI compute infrastructure, we intend to sell our excess capacity by offering it to a limited number of third parties and intend to continue to explore monetizing excess capacity, potentially positioning us to emerge as a competitor to AI cloud providers such as Coreweave and Nebius as well as hyperscalers. Our AI businesses likewise compete in markets characterized by significant barriers to entry, including substantial computational and infrastructure requirements, access to large datasets and the ability to attract and retain highly skilled technical talent. Competition in these markets is based on factors including pricing and cost efficiency, the performance and technical features of AI platforms, customer experience across our products and services, the ability to attract new and retain existing subscribers, users and advertisers and the ability to deploy compute and innovative technologies at scale. 4.5 Intellectual Property The intellectual property that is material to our business includes our proprietary knowledge and software, as well as our brands and our selectively patented inventions and technologies. Our proprietary knowledge includes expertise in design, testing, manufacturing, software, in-orbit operations, real-time platforms, and artificial intelligence development. The protection of our technology and intellectual property is an important aspect of our business. We rely upon a combination of patents, trademarks, trade secrets, copyrights, confidentiality procedures, contractual commitments and other legal rights to establish and protect our intellectual property. We have registered, and applied for the registration of, U.S. and international trademarks, service marks, domain names, and copyrights. We have also filed patent applications and acquired patents in the United States and foreign countries covering certain aspects of our technology, and in some cases, we have acquired patent assets of others to supplement our portfolio. We have licensed in the past, and expect that we may license in the future, certain of our rights to other parties or from other parties. We generally enter into confidentiality agreements and invention or work product assignment agreements with our employees, contractors, and consultants to control access to, and clarify ownership of, our proprietary information and other intellectual property. 4.6 Human Capital As of March 31, 2026, we employed over 22,000 full-time employees worldwide, none of whom are subject to any collective bargaining agreement. We believe our strong culture of collaboration and innovation distinguishes us and serves as an important driver of our business perfoiinance. There has been no material change in the number of our full-time employees between March 31, 2026, and the date of this prospectus. The following table shows the period-end figures of full-time employees by geographic region and business segment as of April 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023: April 30, Year Ended December 31, (unaudited) 2020 2025 2024 2023 United States 21,896 18,028 15,685 International 725 59 32 113,727 17 -111- rm rm I rm 26(1) ................................................ 13,7 .................................................

(2) Certain employees support multiple business segments and are therefore classified within Corporate and Other rather than allocated to a specific business segment. 4.7 Regulatory Environment We are required to comply with a variety of governmental regulations, which could have a significant impact on our business, including our capital expenditures, earnings and competitive position. In particular, our ability to (i) conduct launches and reentries, (ii) operate and expand our satellite systems and related ground infrastructure and (iii) perfolm certain U.S. government programs depends on maintaining key governmental authorizations and complying with evolving safety, spectrum, national security, environmental, contractual, and trade-control requirements. Our ability to provide our AI products and X platfolm depends on complying with evolving AI, data privacy, online services, cybersecurity and environmental requirements. We incur and will continue to incur substantial costs to monitor and take actions to comply with governmental and other regulations that are or will be applicable to our businesses, including, among others, restrictions and regulations of the U.S. Department of Transportation, the FAA, the FCC and other government agencies in the United States and the other countries in which we operate, economic sanctions and trade embargo laws, export controls, import controls and customs. We will also be subject to additional laws and regulations as a result of being a public company, which will require us to devote significant management resources and incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses. 4. 7.1 Space Our Space segment is subject to extensive regulation in the United States and internationally, including (i) regulations administered by the FAA relating to commercial space launches and reentries, (ii) regulations administered by the FCC relating to radio communications used in launch activities and spacecraft operations, and related domestic and international coordination processes, including through the ITU, (iii) U.S. export and import regulatory regimes, and (iv) additional regulations that relate to being a U.S. government contractor. Commercial space launch and reentry activities require licenses and pelmits from the FAA. FAA licenses are generally granted on a launch-by-launch basis and may incorporate safety, environmental and operational conditions. Where applicable, reentry operations require separate authorization. We are generally required to obtain licenses or license modifications from the FAA in connection with changes to vehicles, launch sites, flight profiles, operational procedures, payloads, or other mission parameters, and our launch and range operations may also be subject to environmental reviews, consultations, and peunits. We depend on timely approvals of licenses or license modifications from the FAA and the timing and outcome of the FAA approval process may affect our ability to conduct launches and reentries or require operational restrictions or mitigation measures. Radio communications for launch activities and spacecraft operations require licenses from the FCC and are subject to technical and operational conditions, coordination requirements, and interference-mitigation frameworks. We rely on obtaining licenses from the FCC to conduct our launch and spacecraft operations, and many of our FCC licenses include conditions regarding milestone schedules, reporting and surety-bond requirements, among other conditions. In addition, our spacecraft and satellite operations are subject to evolving regulatory expectations relating to space situational awareness and orbital debris mitigation, including requirements regarding collision avoidance and post-mission disposal. International spacecraft frequency use is coordinated via ITU filings made through the FCC and similar international regulatory bodies, and through country-by-country market access approvals for non-U.S. service. -112- ............................................................

Additionally, as a contractor and subcontractor to certain agencies of the U.S. government, we are subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation, and other applicable laws, security requirements, and regulations, including supplemental agency regulations, which comprehensively regulate the formation, administration, and perfoimance under government contracts. Certain contracts with the U.S. government may require us to be issued facility security clearances under the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual Rule, as a result of which we are required to maintain with the Department of War mitigation measures with respect to foreign ownership, control and influence. Additionally, certain transactions in which we may be involved from time to time may be subject to the jurisdiction of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States ("CFIUS"), which has authority to conduct national security reviews of certain foreign investments. CFIUS may impose mitigation conditions to grant clearance of a particular transaction, may unilaterally initiate national security review of certain transactions, and may recommend that the President of the United States order parties to divest their shareholdings in certain situations, among other actions. 4.7.2 Connectivity Our Connectivity services, including our global satellite-to-mobile connectivity services under Starlink Mobile, depend on authorizations from the FCC in the United States and telecommunications regulators in other countries. Without these licenses and approvals, we generally cannot offer connectivity services in a given market. In the United States, these authorizations include FCC approvals for our satellite system and related earth stations and use of radio frequency spectrum, and they may be subject to technical, operational, and reporting conditions and ongoing compliance obligations (including interference mitigation, coordination requirements and orbital debris mitigation requirements). All communications services that rely on radio frequency communications require use of radio frequency spectrum, the assignment and distribution of which is subject to FCC oversight. Our access to spectrum and orbital resources is also subject to international coordination processes, including through ITU filing and coordination processes, and disputes or delays in these processes could adversely affect our operations. If demand continues to increase or if new spectrum is required for a future generation of technology, we may need to obtain additional spectrum usage rights or related authorizations through FCC proceedings (including modification applications), coordination processes, auctions or secondary market transactions, or partnerships with third parties, each of which may be subject to review, approval, and conditions. We hold FCC authorizations and licenses that allow us to provide a wide range of satellite-based connectivity services, including through the operation of our satellite system and related earth stations. FCC spectrum licenses and authorizations typically have teims of 10-15 years, at which time they are subject to renewal. Similarly, our subsidiaries operating outside the United States are subject to the jurisdiction of regulatory authorities in the territories in which the subsidiaries operate, including any requirements to obtain spectrum licenses or other market access authorization. Our licensing, compliance and advocacy initiatives in foreign countries support our ability to offer enterprise and consumer connectivity services in various international markets. Although we generally seek to renew and maintain these authorizations, challenges could be raised in the future, and there can be no assurance that our applications to renew, modify, or expand our authorizations will be granted on a timely basis, or at all, or without additional conditions. If a spectrum license was revoked or not renewed, we would not be permitted to provide services on the spectrum covered by that license or could be required to modify or curtail operations. Within the United States, the Communications Act generally preempts regulation by state and local governments of the entry of, or the rates charged by, wireless carriers. It does not prohibit states from regulating the other "telins and conditions" of wireless service. For example, some states impose reporting and consumer protection requirements. Several states also have laws or regulations that address safety issues (for example, use of wireless handsets while driving), universal service funding, and taxation matters. Some states are also considering new network reliability or service quality requirements that may affect how and where we provide services if not preempted by federal law. 4.7.3 AI Certain enacted and proposed laws and regulations related to AI may impose requirements with respect to our development, deployment, and use of AI systems and models, including obligations relating to security, integrity, transparency, labeling, detection, and provenance of AI data, models and AI-generated content, as well as restrictions on the export or import of AI-related systems and components. AI regulation is evolving rapidly across jurisdictions, with regulators applying, or considering applying, existing laws or adopting new, non- harmonized frameworks with respect thereto, including emerging AI laws. Development, deployment, and use of AI can also be subject to existing, technology-agnostic regulatory frameworks, including, for example, those addressing consumer protection, data privacy, cybersecurity, intellectual property, content moderation, non- -113- r “ ” r “ rm ”


 
discrimination, and employment. Data centers necessary for AI-related systems may also be subject to changing regulatory frameworks under federal, state, local, and foreign environmental, health, and safety laws. The scope and enforcement of these regimes remain uncertain, and their potential impact on our multiple and overlapping business lines is difficult to predict. Divergent or conflicting regulatory approaches across jurisdictions, as well as evolving enforcement priorities, may also create compliance uncertainty and require market-specific limitations or modifications to AI-related functionality, increasing operational complexity. In addition, third parties may allege intellectual property violations, or misappropriation relating to the training data used in, or the outputs generated by, AI systems and models. The uncertain and evolving legal status of AI-generated content may create legal and operational risk, including with respect to the ownership of, and ability to obtain intellectual property protection for, such outputs, as well as our ability to offer services in certain markets. Open-source and other license terms applicable to AI systems and models may limit the distribution of AI-related functionality or constrain product design. Separately, AI systems and models may present legal operational and reputational risks. Legal and reputational risk may arise in the context of datasets used in the development or operation of AI systems and models as well as the use of AI-enabled products or services to generate output that is perceived as objectionable or inappropriate. Emerging legislation, such as the European Union's Artificial Intelligence Act, California's Transparency in Frontier Artificial Intelligence Act (SB 53) and New York's Responsible AI Safety and Education Act (RAISE Act), may impose requirements relating to, among other things, safety, governance, transparency, and incident reporting on developers of large or frontier AI models. Misuse of our AI systems, models, products, or services by customers or partners may similarly create safety, compliance, or brand risks. These risks have in the past and may in the future result in regulatory scrutiny, legal liability, or reputational harm and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Addressing these risks may require substantial investment in testing, moderation, guardrails, enforcement, and other mitigation measures. 4. 7.3./ Privacy, Cybersecurity, Data Protection, Online Safety, and Digital Platform Regulation We are subject to complex and evolving global legal and regulatory frameworks relating to privacy, cybersecurity, AI, data protection, lawful access, content moderation, and digital platform regulation, as well as contractual and other commitments we make in the course of doing business and our internal and external policies, procedures and controls. These laws and regulations vary across jurisdictions and sectors, are not harmonized, and may conflict or impose overlapping or inconsistent obligations, and continue to evolve and emerge. In particular, the California Consumer Privacy Act (as amended), the GDPR (and its equivalent in the United Kingdom) and other data privacy laws and regulations impose stringent and burdensome requirements in connection with the processing of personal information and include significant penalties for non-compliance. Additionally, as a government contractor, we are also subject to the Department of War's Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification requirements, which requires companies that do business with the Department of War to, depending on the level of security required, meet or exceed certain specified cybersecurity standards to be eligible for new contract awards. The interpretation and application of these and other existing laws not originally enacted to address privacy, cybersecurity, AI, data protection, lawful access, content moderation, or digital platforms are uncertain and continue to develop as they are applied to new technologies and data-driven products and services. These frameworks impose obligations regarding, among other things, the collection, use, storage, protection, disclosure, transfer, and other processing of data, including personal information, and may restrict or condition cross-border data transfers, require data localization, or impose content moderation or other platform-related requirements, and may be interpreted or enforced in ways that are inconsistent, unclear, or subject to significant regulatory discretion. The risks are particularly acute for us because we operate globally across multiple industries and develop cutting-edge technologies that present novel regulatory and security issues. The data we collect and otherwise process is integral to our business, technology, and services, and regulatory restrictions or limitations on our ability to secure and process such data could materially affect our operations and business model. In addition, our products and services, including those enabled by AI, may also be subject to online safety and youth-protection laws and regulations. Such laws and regulations may impose obligations relating to content risk mitigation, age assurance, platform governance, and, in certain jurisdictions, content reporting and removal requirements. For example, the UK's Online Safety Act 2023 and Australia's Online Safety Amendment (Social Media Minimum Age) Act 2024 impose risk mitigation and age-related requirements on certain online platforms. As a result of these requirements or to otherwise seek to maintain the safety of our platforms, we maintain content policies and enforcement mechanisms across our platforms and related products and services. These include a combination of automated detection tools, classifiers and filters, algorithmic signals, and human review processes. We also employ measures to help detect and challenge suspicious accounts during sign-up and ongoing use, provide user reporting channels, and apply enforcement actions. Additional safeguards to help mitigate safety -114- ’ ’ r ’ 1 i it t ti , f tf r’ ’ ’


 
concerns include age-related controls, content restrictions, and specialized modes; and labeling or wateii_larks on certain outputs and other market-specific restrictions on certain content categories where required by local laws. This evolving landscape will continue to affect our ability to maintain, develop, or launch products and services, including those that rely on the processing of personal infounation or other sensitive data, including targeted advertising and other data-driven offerings, and may require market-specific changes to our products, services, or business practices, increasing operational complexity and cost. In addition, emerging laws and regulations seeking to restrict cross-border transfer of or access to certain data in light of perceived national security considerations may increase compliance costs and restrict our operational flexibility, investment activities, or ability to achieve our strategic objectives. As our business evolves, and if we expand into additional industries or jurisdictions, our compliance requirements and associated costs may increase and we may be subject to heightened regulatory scrutiny. We also face cybersecurity risks, including the potential unlawful, accidental, or unauthorized access to, or use, disclosure, alteration, loss, or disruption of, our technology, products, systems, and data, or those of our service providers and partners, which could result in a loss of confidentiality, integrity, or availability. We operate in industries that have been, and will continue to be, targeted by sophisticated and persistent internal and external threat actors, including those controlled by or affiliated with nation states. Many jurisdictions impose mandatory breach notification and reporting obligations, and compliance with such requirements can be costly, time- sensitive, and operationally burdensome, and we may bear such costs in the event of a material incident. As we continue to use and integrate advanced technologies, including AI systems and models, into our operations, products, and services, our exposure to cybersecurity incidents may increase, particularly as threat actors also try to adopt and deploy AI-enabled tools to evade detection and compromise systems or data. Compliance with applicable privacy, cybersecurity, AI, data protection, lawful access, content moderation and digital platfoun obligations can be costly and operationally demanding and may require changes to our products, services, business practices, or technical infrastructure. 4.8 Environmental, Health, and Safety Our operations and facilities, as well as existing and planned infrastructure, are subject to an extensive regulatory framework of federal, state, local, and foreign environmental, health, and safety laws, and regulations and peunits that govern, among other things, employee health and safety, discharges of pollutants into the air and water, the generation, handling, storage, and disposal of hazardous materials and wastes and the investigation and remediation of certain materials, substances, and wastes. These include various regulations promulgated by federal, state, and local regulatory agencies and legislative bodies. Certain of our operations, including launch, reentry, testing, and manufacturing activities and the development or expansion of facilities, as well as the siting, construction and operation of data centers, may require environmental reviews, consultations, and peunits and may be subject to conditions or mitigation measures that could increase costs or limit operations. We are required to obtain a number of peunits and entitlements from various government agencies to construct and operate our facilities, including zoning, land use and building code peunits, air quality peunits for permanent combustion equipment (including both diesel generators and natural gas turbines), stounwater and wastewater discharge peunits, and fire and life safety approvals. We have issued or pending peunit applications for certain of our facilities. 4.9 Government Contracts A portion of our revenue is derived from contracts, directly or indirectly, with the U.S. government. We have numerous direct contracts with the U.S. government, primarily NASA, the Department of War, the General Services Administration, and certain Intelligence Community agencies. These contracts focus mainly on launch services, spacecraft development, and satellite deployment, and artificial intelligence products. We are almost always the prime contractor on our government contracts, and we rarely use subcontractors. All of our launch contracts with U.S. government agencies are firm fixed-price contracts with milestone-based payments. These contracts are subject to U.S. government contracting rules and regulations (Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS)), and therefore, we are subject to the business risks specific to the defense industry. These regulations impose stringent requirements on our operations, business practices and reporting, and noncompliance could result in civil or criminal penalties, suspension or debaiment from government contracting, or loss of existing or future business. These requirements, although customary in U.S. government contracts, increase our perfounance and compliance costs. These costs might increase in the future. The U.S. government has the ability to unilaterally: (i) declare us ineligible to receive -115- rm rm t rm rm rm rm rm rm rm rm rm r rm


 
new contracts; (ii) teuninate existing contracts at its convenience and without advance notice; (iii) reduce the scope and value of existing contracts; (iv) audit our contract-related costs and fees, including allocated indirect costs; and (v) revoke required security clearances. Violations of government procurement laws could result in civil or criminal penalties. We are also required to maintain special security clearances and comply with executive orders, federal laws and regulations, and customer security requirements for classified programs, and our government contracts impose cybersecurity and infounation assurance requirements, including implementation of infounation security protections in accordance with NIST Special Publication 800-171 and obligations to review and report certain cyber incidents. Failure to comply could result in suspension of payments, teunination of contracts, civil or criminal penalties, or exclusion from future government contracting opportunities. In addition, in connection with preparing leased real property for our launch operations at Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral, Florida, and Space Launch Complex 4 at Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, we make significant capital improvements and install extensive real and personal property at these government- owned sites. The launch facilities we build are a unique capital improvement compared to standard commercial use sites because the federal government specifically designates these launch sites for aerospace activities, such as rocket launches. Given the specific use requirements of these government-owned sites, we have historically entered into handover agreements with the relevant government entities upon expiration or teunination of the leases, pursuant to which the improvements are transferred to the government rather than removed. This fact pattern has historically been the case with previous leases such as at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. 4.10 Borrowing and Funding Structure, Expected Financing and Investments For a discussion of our borrowing and funding structure, expected financing, and investments, please refer to "5.11 Liquidity and Capital Resources". 4.11 Trend Information For a discussion on trend infoli_lation, please refer to "4.3 Business Overview". -116- rm rm rm rmi rm “ ” rm “ ”

It's about believing in the future and thinking that the future will be better than the past. And I can't think of anything more exciting than going out there and being among the stars." — Elon Musk Our mission is to build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light of consciousness to the stars. To do this, we have foamed what we believe to be the most ambitious, vertically integrated innovation engine on (and off) Earth with unmatched capabilities to rapidly manufacture and launch space-based communications that connect the world, to harness the Sun to power a truth-seeking artificial intelligence that advances scientific discovery, and ultimately to build a base on the Moon and cities on other planets. 5.2 Overview We design, manufacture, launch, and operate products and services built on cutting-edge technologies, including what we believe to be the world's most advanced rockets and spacecraft (Space). We also operate a high-speed, low-latency global broadband data and communications network powered by approximately 9,600 Starlink broadband and mobile satellites in LEO (Connectivity). In addition, we are rapidly constructing AI compute infrastructure — starting on Earth with the goal of extending to space — at industry-leading pace and cost efficiency (AI). • Space. We offer launch services to commercial, civil, and government customers through our reusable Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy rockets for satellite, cargo, and crew missions. We are the primary launch provider for the U.S. government. -117- ’ l fi f ll f t , , fr f t “ ts” f f “ ” f f f f t f ll l ti f , fi , “ ” fi f ll “ ”, fro “ t ” f ll fi f f i fi f , f , “ t’ s” “ t’ s” ’ “ ” “ – ’ ’ ’ ” – r ’ – –


 
• Connectivity. Our Connectivity business includes Starlink Consumer Broadband, Enterprise Solutions, Government Solutions, and Starlink Mobile. • AI. We operate a highly vertically integrated AI platform which includes our AI compute infrastructure, truth-seeking frontier model, and consumer and enterprise applications. We strive to make the incredible and extraordinary accessible and repeatable, and we have grown rapidly by continuously leveraging our core strengths, including: • Global leadership in orbital launch services; • Unrivaled satellite and connectivity platfouun across design, manufacturing, deployment, and operations; • Truth-seeking AI model enhanced by real-time data; • Extreme vertical integration enabling high velocity and superior cost efficiency at scale; • Unique ability to scale new trillion-dollar markets across Space, Connectivity, and AI; • Business models that are incredibly difficult to replicate; and • Our mission-driven culture and world-class talent. For more infoli_lation on our business, please refer to "4.3 Business Overview". 5.3 Our Capital Allocation and Funding Strategy Since our beginning, we have managed through multiple investment cycles. We initially raised capital to fund what is now our Space segment, which generates revenue from commercial and government customers while serving as the backbone for our Connectivity segment. We invested in our Connectivity segment as we generated Segment Adjusted EBITDA from our Space segment, along with additional equity capital that we raised externally, creating a segment that generates predictable and recurring revenue from consumer, enterprise, and government customers. We continue to invest meaningfully in both our Space and Connectivity segments to build out the infrastructure of the future through our next-generation Starship launch platfolin and our expanded Starlink broadband and mobility networks. We believe that we have a strong track record of capital allocation and value creation in Space and Connectivity based on the following: Since SpaceX's founding in 2002, we have raised over $9 billion of equity capital to fund the development and growth of these two business segments. The Space segment became Segment Adjusted EBITDA positive on a sustained basis beginning in 2018 and the Connectivity segment became in aggregate Segment Adjusted EBITDA positive on a sustained basis beginning in 2023. In 2025, our Space segment generated a loss from operations of $(657) million and Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $653 million, including the impact of funding $3,004 million in research and development expense for our next-generation Starship launch vehicle program. In 2025, our Connectivity segment generated income from operations of $4,423 million and Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $7,168 million. We acquired xAI in February 2026, which foil's the basis of our AI segment. We expect to allocate substantial capital to expand our compute infrastructure, and we expect a multi-year investment horizon before these deployments translate into sustained positive AI Segment Adjusted EBITDA. During this investment period, our capital expenditures will scale as quickly as we are able to deploy power and compute to address the $26.5 trillion potential market opportunity for AI. We plan to access a range of debt and equity financing solutions available to us as a public company to fund future investments in growth and to maintain strong liquidity. We aim to maintain an investment grade credit rating. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is a non-U.S. GAAP measure. Please refer to "2.9 Presentation of Financial Information" and "5.10 Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures" for additional infounation on our non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including reconciliations of Segment Adjusted EBITDA to segment income (loss) from operations, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. -118- tform rm “ ” rm ’ rm “ ” “ ” rm


 
5.4 Key Business Metrics We use the following key business metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends, formulate business plans, and make strategic decisions. 5.4.1 Space In our Space segment, we use mass to orbit and launches as key business metrics to measure our scale and throughput. Mass to orbit and launches grow more rapidly than Space segment revenue because these metrics include our internal constellation deployments from which we do not recognize inter-segment revenue. Mass to Orbit: Mass to orbit is the total kilograms of payload that we deploy to orbit in a given period, and is a key indicator of SpaceX's capacity and scalability that supports Space revenue and drives expansion across our Connectivity and AI segments. We calculate this metric by summing verified mass, including Starlink satellites, customer payloads, and development cargo, from all successful orbital and flight tests. This measure excludes failed or scrubbed attempts. We increased mass to orbit from 1,210 metric tons in 2023 to 1,699 metric tons in 2024 to 2,213 metric tons in 2025, and from 450 metric tons in the three months ended March 31, 2025 to 556 metric tons in the three months ended March 31, 2026. In 2023, 2024, and 2025, mass to orbit included 205, 282, and 312 metric tons attributable to customer payloads, respectively, and 1,005, 1,418, and 1,901 metric tons attributable to internal payloads, respectively (the amounts presented may not add up to the corresponding totals due to rounding). Falcon 9 launches contribute steadily at an average capacity of 13 metric tons per mission since 2023 to various orbits while we transition to Starship. As the most powerful launch system ever developed (measured by pounds of thrust), we expect that Starship V3 will be able to carry a payload of 100 metric tons, with future generations of Starship being designed to double this payload. MASS TO ORBIT (IN METRIC TONS) 2,500 2,000 1,500 1,000 500 ANNUAL 1,210 1,699 2,213 2023 2024 2025 2,500 2,000 1,500 1,000 500 0 Q1 450 Q12025 Q12026 Launches: Launches are a key measure of our operational scale, which in turn supports our revenue growth and mission to expand humanity's presence in space. Launches in a period represent the sum of all successful orbital and flight tests across our rockets, including internal Starlink deployments, development tests, and launches for our third-party customers, and excluding any cancellations or scrubs that occurred in that period. Falcon 9 is the most active orbital launch vehicle today, with approximately 620 orbital space launches as of March 31, 2026, and an over 99% mission success rate. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we launched 40 Falcon rockets, of which 39 were flight-proven booster launches, and in 2025, we launched 165 Falcon 9 rockets, of which 157 were flight-proven booster launches. While we have steadily increased our Falcon 9 launch cadence over recent years, we expect Falcon 9 launches to decrease over time. While Falcon 9 currently drives the majority of our launch activity, we expect Starship, which is designed to be the world's first fully, rapidly, reusable launch vehicle, to become a larger contributor to our launch volume as it enters operational service. To date, we have executed 12 Starship flight tests to advance our goal of rapidly and fully reusable orbital capability, a breakthrough we believe will transform our launch economics and benefit both our business and -119- i ’ ’ ’


 
customers who rely on our launch services. Our 12th flight test in May 2026 debuted the next generation Starship vehicle and Super heavy booster, powered by the next evolution of our Raptor engine and launching from a newly designed pad at Starbase. We allocate a significant amount of launch capacity to our Connectivity segment, and expect to allocate a significant amount to our AI segment in the future. Our Space segment revenue only reflects our customer launches and customer activities.

The number of Falcon launches for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2026 totaled 36 and 40, respectively, of which customer launches totaled 12 and 7, respectively, and internal launches totaled 24 and 33, respectively. We designate a launch as a "customer launch" if an external customer payload constitutes the primary payload (i.e., where the principal objective is to deliver the customer payload) and the mission parameters (e.g., launch window, orbital parameters, mission profile) are designed around the primary payload's requirements. To date, all Starship launches have been classified as internal. 5.4.2 Connectivity In our Connectivity segment, we view Starlink Subscribers and Starlink Subscriber ARPU as key business metrics to evaluate our growth and monetization. Starlink Subscribers: We define a Starlink Subscriber as a unique Service Line that is directly assigned to a Starlink.com account registered to a person or entity that does not have a direct, negotiated agreement with the Starlink sales team. A Service Line is an individual instance of Starlink broadband internet service provisioned under a subscription plan, generally associated with a specific Starlink teuninal or group of teuninals, and billed according to Starlink's service plans and teens of service. The number of Service Lines is distinct from the number of unique devices, account holders, end users or physical persons. An individual, household, or business may share a single Service Line among multiple end-users. Likewise, an individual, household, or business may maintain multiple service lines (e.g., both a Residential Service Line and a separate Roam Service Line, which would be defined as two separate Service Lines and therefore two Starlink Subscribers). We use this measure to assess the adoption of Starlink as we expand within and across geographies and business segments. Starlink Subscribers includes both Personal (e.g., Residential and Roam) and Business (e.g., Local Priority and Global Priority) subscription plans, but does not include managed enterprise and government customers with contracts in domains including aviation, maritime, land mobility, fixed sites and government entities. We calculate Starlink Subscribers for a period as the number of unique Service Lines at the end of the period. Starlink Subscribers totaled approximately 10.3 million and 5.0 million, up 105% and 91% on a year-over- year basis, in the quarters ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively. -120- th _______ “ ” ’ rm rm ’ rm

Our strategy is focused on driving sustainable revenue growth and expanding our margins through operational efficiencies and technological advancements, rather than prioritizing increases in ARPU. This approach aligns with our long-tem' vision of expanding global connectivity and market access. We generally expect Starlink Subscriber ARPU to continue to decline over the next few years as the portion of our subscriber base outside North America continues to grow, as we add lower priced service plans, and as we adjust the monthly service plan fees we charge for broadband offerings. However, we expect these dynamics to be offset by increased scale and technological advancement in our launch, satellite, and user teuninal operations, ultimately supporting overall revenue growth and cost reduction. Our Starlink Subscriber monthly ARPU decreased from $86 per month for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $66 per month for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and from $91 per month in 2024 to $81 per month in 2025. These decreases were driven primarily by international expansion and the addition of lower priced service plans. -121- r rm

5.4.4 Segment Income (Loss) from Operations 5.4.4.1 Income (Loss) from Operations in the Space Segment Loss from operations in the Space segment for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $592 million to $(662) million compared to $(70) million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by an accelerated investment in development of the Starship vehicle as well as launch facilities to support future Starship launches, and a decrease in revenue from customer launches, partially offset by a decrease in cost of revenue, selling, general, and administrative expenses and impaiunent. Income (loss) from operations in the Space segment for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $678 million to $(657) million compared to $21 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, while income (loss) from operations in the Space segment for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased by $22 million to $21 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $(1) million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The year-over-year decrease in 2025 was primarily driven by an accelerated investment in development of the Starship vehicle as well as launch facilities to support future Starship launches, partially offset by an increase in revenue and decrease in cost of revenue. 5.4.4.2 Income (Loss) from Operations in the Connectivity Segment Income from operations in the Connectivity segment for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $155 million to $1,188 million compared to $1,033 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by increased revenue from our consumer subscribers (composed of 104.7% growth in Starlink Subscribers, offset by a 22.9% decline in Starlink Subscriber ARPU, primarily due to international expansion and the addition of lower priced service plans) and enterprise business, partially offset by higher depreciation of capitalized launch and satellite costs due to the increase in Starlink flights, as well as higher operating expenses including ground operating costs and international expansion costs to support and drive subscriber growth. Income from operations in the Connectivity Segment for 2025 increased by $2,417 million to $4,423 million compared to $2,006 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 while income from operations in the Connectivity segment for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased by $1,537 million to $2,006 million compared to $469 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The year-over-year increase in 2025 was primarily driven by increased revenue from growth of our consumer and enterprise customers by $2,378 million and $1,410 million, respectively, partially offset by higher depreciation of capitalized launch and satellite costs due to the increase in Starlink flights, as well as higher marketing and international expansion costs to drive subscriber growth. 5.4.4.3 Income (Loss) from Operations in the AI Segment Loss from operations in the AI segment for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $1,533 million to $(2,469) million compared to $(936) million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by higher cloud computing and GPU depreciation costs, data center infrastructure and employee expenses, partially offset by higher revenue. Loss from operations in the AI segment for 2025 increased by $4,794 million to $(6,355) million compared to $(1,561) million for the year ended December 31, 2024, while loss from operations in the AI segment for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased by $2,412 million to $(1,561) million compared to $(3,973) million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in 2025 was primarily driven by higher cloud computing costs, facilities-related costs and employee expenses, partially offset by higher revenue. 5.4.5 Segment Adjusted EBITDA Segment Adjusted EBITDA is defined as segment income (loss) from operations excluding (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) share-based compensation, (iii) restructuring charges and (iv) impaiiinent. 5.4.5.1 Space Segment Adjusted EBITDA Space Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $575 million to $(351) million compared to $224 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by an accelerated investment in development of the Starship vehicle as well as launch facilities to support future Starship -123- fro f rm f f rm


 
launches, and a decrease in revenue from customer launches, partially offset by a decrease in cost of revenue, selling, general, and administrative expenses. Space Segment Adjusted EBITDA for 2025 decreased by $501 million to $653 million compared to $1,154 million in 2024, while Space Segment Adjusted EBITDA for 2024 increased by $157 million to $1,154 million compared to $997 million in 2023. The year-over-year decrease in 2025 was primarily driven by an accelerated investment in development of the Starship vehicle, as well as launch facilities to support future Starship launches, partially offset by an increase in NASA Cargo Resupply Services (CRS) for additional missions to the International Space Station, along with increased revenue from a U.S. Department of War contract. Our Space Segment Adjusted EBITDA is also driven by the reusability and efficiency of our rockets, which boosts cadence and reliability and supports a diversified base of commercial and government customers. These efforts have created a strong foundation for our Space Segment Adjusted EBITDA, and we believe position us to unlock further high-value opportunities in the expanding space economy. 5.4.5.2 Connectivity Segment Adjusted EBITDA Connectivity Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $469 million to $2,087 million compared to $1,618 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by higher revenue from growth in consumer and enterprise revenue. Consumer revenue was composed of 104.7% growth in Starlink Subscribers, offset by a 22.9% decline in Starlink Subscriber ARPU, primarily due to international expansion and the addition of lower priced service plans. Enterprise and government revenue had an increase primarily driven by the growth in our aviation, maritime, mobility, and other enterprise business, partially offset by a decrease in our government business. These increases in revenue were offset by higher operating expenses for international expansion, and higher research and development costs. Connectivity Segment Adjusted EBITDA for 2025 increased by $3,319 million to $7,168 million compared to $3,849 million in 2024 while Connectivity Segment Adjusted EBITDA for 2024 increased by $2,247 million to $3,849 million compared to $1,602 million in 2023. The year-over-year increase in 2025 was primarily driven by higher revenue from growth in our consumer and enterprise customers, partially offset by higher marketing and international expansion costs to grow our subscribers, as well as higher research and development costs for our next-generation product development. We have driven our strong sequential Connectivity Segment Adjusted EBITDA growth by expanding the scale and efficiency of our LEO satellite constellations and our highly verticalized supply chain, which has delivered major cost reductions in user teiminal production. 5.4.5.3 AI Segment Adjusted EBITDA AI Segment Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $497 million to $(609) million compared to $(112) million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by higher cloud compute and data center infrastructure and operating costs, and employee compensation expenses, partially offset by higher revenue. AI Segment Adjusted EBITDA for 2025 decreased by $1,584 million to $(1,237) million compared to $347 million in 2024 while AI Segment Adjusted EBITDA for 2024 decreased by $875 million to $347 million, compared to $1,222 million in 2023. The decrease in 2025 was primarily driven by higher cloud computing costs, facilities-related costs and employee expenses, partially offset by higher revenue. AI Segment Adjusted EBITDA is primarily driven by our strategy to rapidly and cost-effectively scale compute infrastructure. We expect to continue to expand our terrestrial data centers, and to launch orbital data centers, and we expect a multi-year investment horizon before these deployments translate into sustained positive Segment Adjusted EBITDA for our AI segment. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is a non-U.S. GAAP measure. Please refer to "2.9 Presentation of Financial Information" "5.10 Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures" for additional infounation on our non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including reconciliations of Segment Adjusted EBITDA to segment income (loss) from operations, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. 5.4.6 Capital Expenditures For more infounation on our capital expenditures, please refer to "5.11.2 Past Capital Expenditures". -124- r “ ” “ ” rm rm “ . ”


 
5.5 Drivers of Our Performance 5.5.1 Developing Starship Starship is our next-generation vehicle that we expect will dramatically expand our launch capability through full and rapid reusability combined with unprecedented mass to orbit capability. As the most powerful launch system ever developed (measured by pounds of thrust), we expect that Starship V3 will be able to carry a payload of 100 metric tons, and that future generations could reach 200 metric tons, potentially as soon as Starship V4. Starship is central to our goal of unlocking growth through our unique vertically integrated business model. Starship is expected to be the only vehicle with fully reusable first and second stages, which is critical to reducing launch costs and increasing launch cadence. We believe that Starship can eventually reduce the cost to reach orbit by 99% or more relative to the historical average launch cost per kilogram according to NASA of $18,500, establishing a scalable path to creating the infrastructure of the future, such as orbital AI compute. We have already demonstrated catching and reusing the first stage booster for Starship through our method applied by the launch tower's mechanical arms to catch the booster. To date, we have executed 12 Starship flight tests, with our 12th flight test in May 2026 debuting the next generation Starship vehicle and Super Heavy booster. This next-generation Starship introduces major changes for better orbital performance and reusability. We plan to demonstrate key development milestones of catching the upper stage and demonstrating in-orbit propellant transfer capabilities. These milestones will be the key unlocks for a rapidly reusable rocket that we expect will take hundreds of thousands of tons of mass to orbit to drive growth in our Connectivity and AI segments, and allow us to develop the lunar economy and eventually to reach Mars. We expect Starship to commence payload delivery to orbit in the second half of 2026 following additional flight tests. For additional information about this risk, please refer to "1.1.1 Any failure or delay in the development of Starship at scale or in achieving the required launch cadence, reusability and capabilities thereafter would delay or limit our ability to execute our growth strategy, including the deployment of next-generation satellites, global satellite-to-mobile connectivity, and orbital AI compute, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects." in this prospectus. 5.5.2 Launch Costs and Cadence Our launch costs and cadence underpin the foundational competitive advantage that enables the performance of each of our segments. The reusability of our launch vehicles meaningfully reduces the cost per kilogram to orbit by eliminating or limiting the need to manufacture new vehicles for every mission. Reusability also enables higher launch cadence by shortening the time between flights, as vehicles can be rapidly reflown after their return. These factors enable performance in our Connectivity segment by supporting faster and more cost-effective deployment of our satellite constellations. We expect they will support our AI segment as we aim to deploy a large fleet of orbital AI compute. We expect continued enhancements to our launch infrastructure and launch vehicles, including Starship, to drive cost down and throughput up, extending these benefits to our businesses, as well as to our third-party customers who rely on our launch capabilities. As we continue to reduce launch costs and increase launch cadence, we expect to transform the rocket launch industry into airline-like operations, enabling continuous and affordable access to space. Period-to-period comparisons of launch costs and cadence are impacted by factors out of our control, including timing of delivery of customer payloads which impacts the mix of customer and internal payloads and related financial reporting, or weather which can delay a launch from one period to another. 5.5.3 Increasing Satellite Capacity The scale, reliability, and capacity of our LEO broadband and mobile satellite constellations drive our Connectivity segment's growth and operating performance. In 2025, launching and operating higher-throughput satellites supported Starlink's service quality and customer reach by increasing available network capacity and improving service consistency during peak usage periods. As March 31, 2026, we operated over 9,600 Starlink broadband and mobile satellites in LEO, with the majority composed of our second-generation, V2 Mini satellites. We expect to commence deploying our next-generation V3 satellites, designed to offer one Tbps of downlink capacity per satellite, using Starship in the second half of 2026 and expect that a single Starship launch will be capable of deploying up to 60 V3 satellites to LEO, representing a twenty-fold increase in Starlink downlink capacity deployed relative to a Falcon 9 launch. We also provide satellite-to-mobile connectivity, supplementing terrestrial networks and substantially reducing mobile "dead zones" in approximately 30 countries. Since January 2025, we have grown our -125- ’ th “ f il t , t t ti it f , ti , f ” ‑ ‑ ’ ’ “ ”


 
constellation from approximately 360 V1 Mobile satellites to approximately 650 V1 Mobile satellites. Through this constellation and in partnership with more than 30 MNOs, we provided data, over-the-top voice, and messaging services to approximately 7.4 million monthly unique devices across approximately 30 countries. During 2025, we also entered into agreements to acquire 65 MHz of spectrum in the United States as well as certain global Mobile Satellite Service spectrum licenses from EchoStar for $19.6 billion of equity and cash consideration, as described below under "5.11.3 Material Cash Commitments." We expect the spectrum acquisition to close in November 2027, subject to required regulatory approvals and other closing conditions. We expect the wider bandwidth operations enabled by this spectrum purchase, together with our authorization to deploy 7,500 satellites including with 2GHz spectrum band, will provide stronger support for current performance and potential future services, including broadband data and IoT connectivity, and is expected to enable 5G connectivity. These investments in satellite scale, per-satellite capacity, and expanded capabilities are instrumental to the growth and operating performance of our Connectivity segment, enabling us to onboard new users while improving service quality. 5.5.4 Increasing Starlink Brand Awareness and Acquiring New Subscribers Our growth is driven in part by increased global awareness of Starlink's capabilities and our ability to convert that awareness into customer adoption. Trust, visibility, and demonstrated reliability are central to customer acquisition, particularly for those in remote and infrastructure-limited regions. Proven performance in rural, remote, and disaster-affected areas, along with strong brand awareness, reinforces Starlink's reputation as essential infrastructure, leading to higher adoption in new markets. As of March 31, 2026, we had over 9,600 Starlink broadband and mobile satellites in LEO, operating, in our view, the world's most advanced broadband constellation providing internet connectivity to approximately 10.3 million Starlink Subscribers across 164 countries, territories, and other markets, collectively home to more than 3.3 billion people. We are focused on growing the number of Starlink Subscribers by expanding our consumer distribution network across thousands of authorized retail stores globally, and executing region-specific marketing campaigns to increase brand awareness. By clearly demonstrating Starlink's superior speed, low-latency, and ease of installation, we expect to drive meaningful subscriber growth. 5.5.5 Increasing Enterprise Customer Adoption As we continue to grow our Starlink constellation and bandwidth, we see a large opportunity to grow the enterprise connectivity market by providing solutions that had not previously been available. Our network is global and can provide primary connectivity for on-the-move applications as well as a resilient backup option for enterprises serviced by land-based connectivity. We plan to deepen our penetration with enterprise and government customers through direct, vertical-specific acquisition strategies. In recent years, we have assembled dedicated sales and engineering teams to market and support fleet-wide conversions in aviation and maritime, customized deployments for land mobility, which we expect to continue to grow as consumers who experience Starlink begin to expect high-performance connectivity when traveling. We expect to enable more customized deployments for land mobility across existing use cases such as commercial trucking fleets, and new applications enabled by more connected devices. We also continue to develop specialized networks for secure government applications via Starshield. By leveraging proven perfoiinance in mission-critical environments and expanding through channel partners in select geographies, we expect to drive increased adoption among high-value enterprise and government accounts. 5.5.6 Accelerating Investment in Growth and Innovation We are simultaneously developing and scaling a wide range of complex, capital-intensive projects, including Starship and terrestrial and orbital AI compute. We believe speed is a competitive advantage, and periodically we decide to increase and accelerate our investments. For example, in 2025 we accelerated our timeline for Starship development, increasing research and development ("R&D") in our Space segment to $3,004 million, compared to $1,835 million in 2024. In our AI segment, in 2025 we successfully accelerated deployment of compute for the development of Grok, increasing R&D in our AI segment to $5,064 million, compared to $1,176 million in 2024. We believe pursuing multiple ambitious programs in parallel enables us to compound advantages across our vertically integrated innovation engine and unlock new large addressable markets over time. The timing of our investments is not fixed and may accelerate based on technical progress, market opportunity, or resource availability. As a result, our operating results, margins and profitability may fluctuate from period to period as we continue to prioritize execution speed, capacity expansion, and technological leadership over -126- “ . ” ’ ’ ’ ’ rm ‑ “ ”


 
near-term margin optimization. We believe that this approach maximizes long-term value creation by allowing us to move faster than competitors, scale earlier in emerging markets, and reinforce durable competitive advantages that we expect to benefit our business over time. 5.5.7 Supply Chain and Manufacturing Efficiency for User Terminals The operating performance of our Connectivity segment depends in part on the cost and availability of user terminals at scale. We are vertically integrated across terminal design, production, and support, including silicon, hardware, software, manufacturing, fulfillment, and operations, which enables us to control our means of production as well as rapidly iterate to continuously improve the performance of our user terminals and optimize product cost. Since our initial launch of our user terminal, we have optimized the design of our phased-array antennas, our self-aligning antenna responsible for connecting user equipment to our LEO satellite network, for manufacturability and high-volume scale. Over the past five years, we have significantly lowered production costs and have scaled terminal output to approximately 200,000 terminals per week. We plan to continue to further scale production significantly and make gains that improve margins, lower customer barriers, and broaden addressable markets. 5.5.8 Scaling our Al Compute Rapidly and Efficiently Our ability to rapidly and cost-effectively scale AI compute is a significant driver of our competitiveness. We view scaling of compute capacity through a simple lens: power availability and the powered shell together determine how quickly we can deploy compute, and our model and serving stack in that powered shell determines how efficiently we convert that compute into useful tokens. In order to scale our AI segment rapidly and efficiently, our strategy is extreme vertical integration, "from shovels to tokens." 5.5.8.1 Power Availability and Powered Shells Our COLOSSUS and COLOSSUS II data centers collectively provide approximately 1.0 gigawatt of compute power, with additional power capacity available for data center operations. We brought the first cluster of COLOSSUS online in 122 days, repurposing the shell of an existing factory, and the first cluster of COLOSSUS II online even faster in 91 days. As an illustrative comparison, an industry benchmark to bring online a 100 megawatt greenfield data center is approximately two years. We also demonstrated a significant improvement in cost efficiency, achieving data center construction costs for COLOSSUS II that are considerably lower than industry benchmarks on a per megawatt basis. COLOSSUS and COLOSSUS II were brought online almost entirely through on-site power generation capabilities that we designed, built, and deployed ourselves. We view our proven ability to construct power infrastructure at this scale and speed as a significant competitive advantage. We partner closely with local utilities to fund grid infrastructure expansions and access excess capacity, while proactively curtailing our grid usage whenever required to prioritize community needs. Megapacks - utility-scale battery storage systems — deliver critical redundancy and help stabilize operations during peak demand. Going forward, COLOSSUS II is expected to be primarily powered by a dedicated natural gas power plant, supplemented over time by additional grid capacity that we are directly funding through our local utility partners. Our comprehensive expertise across the full infrastructure stack — from power procurement and on-site generation to distribution and advanced cooling systems — enables us to translate available power into usable compute capacity with exceptional efficiency. As we continue to scale and optimize, we expect to drive further improvements in Power Usage Effectiveness. We expect these gains to accelerate the path from buildout to monetization. 5.5.8.2 Al Token Generation Efficiency We are highly vertically integrated. We design, own or lease, and install all of our powered shells and dedicated processor capacity. This full-stack ownership enables us to efficiently convert power capacity into usable compute, precisely control cluster configuration, and operate a true end-to-end system spanning infrastructure through to model deployment. Our operating performance depends on how effectively we utilize deployed compute once capacity comes online — specifically, our ability to convert raw infrastructure into reliable, high-throughput token generation at scale. Achieving this requires tight coordination across model training and inference workflows, hardware configuration, and data center operations so that utilization and throughput ramp efficiently as we expand. We believe we hold a meaningful efficiency advantage by tightly integrating the model layer directly with the compute layer. Unlike third-party environments that impose multiple abstraction layers, we run our serving stack close to the processors and optimize serving, networking, and cluster configuration as a single unified system. This "model-to-compute" integration reduces overhead, improves hardware utilization, and -127- ‑ ‑ f er i I “ ” – – – – I – “ ”


 
increases the proportion of available compute that is converted into delivered output tokens. Output tokens represent the final generated response delivered to the user, while total processing can be substantially higher when a request triggers additional inference-time reasoning steps. Because we control workload scheduling and serving logic, we can prioritize high token efficiency — intelligently balancing compute allocated to reasoning with strong final output to maintain or improve response quality. This end-to-end control, combined with our sourcing relationships with leading compute providers, gives us a performance-per-watt advantage and enables us to adopt new processor generations at scale more rapidly through a repeatable playbook for reconfiguration and recommissioning. 5.5.8.3 Orbital AI Compute Has the Potential to Massively Increase Our Ability to Scale Our AI Compute, Accelerate Our Pace, and to Be More Cost Effective Relative to Terrestrial Options. We believe we are the only company with a commercially viable path to building orbital AI compute at scale. This is underpinned by our unique ability to launch substantial mass into orbit cost efficiently through reusable rockets and manufacture secure, reliable, and high performance satellites at low cost and high volume. We plan to develop orbital data centers to enable scaling of compute capacity for us and our customers that is independent of terrestrial power infrastructure constraints. Space offers the potential to access virtually limitless power and an operating environment that supports sustained high-density compute, including structural advantages for power generation, cooling, and uninterrupted operations as capacity grows. We plan to employ a modular shell approach built around our scalable satellite constellation, which enables compute capacity to be deployed and expanded efficiently as capacity requirements grow. The architecture also supports shorter refresh cycles at the token layer, as we can upgrade compute as successive chip generations arrive, increasing token output per unit of installed capacity. Our goal over time is to launch 100 gigawatts of compute to space each year. If operated continuously, the generation resources used to support 100 gigawatts of compute could generate approximately one-fifth of the annual power production in the United States, which was 4.4 thousand terawatt hours in 2025, according to the U.S. Energy Infoimation Administration (EIA). We expect space-based compute to massively increase AI compute scale, while also improving token economics. 5.5.9 Ability to Increase Revenue from our Consumer User Base Our perfoimance depends in part on our ability to effectively increase revenue from our over 1.3 billion accounts active in the last twelve months ended March 2026, including approximately 550 million monthly active AI users across Grok and X through multiple complementary monetization channels: • Growing our Advertising Platform. Advertising remains a core monetization channel for our AI segment, with revenue driven by our ability to deliver highly relevant ads. We aim to grow advertising revenue per user by strengthening perfoimance advertising, expanding AI-driven targeting and measurement, and introducing richer ad formats and creative tools. A central focus of ours is making ads feel like content — contextually relevant, aligned with user interests, and integrated into real-time conversations. Grok increasingly supports this strategy by helping advertisers with campaign creation, creative optimization, and alignment with trending topics and user intent. While these factors help us drive advertising revenue, the pricing of our advertising products is also affected by other factors, including the global economy and the highly competitive nature of our industry. We believe continued investment in AI-powered advertising will further improve advertiser ROI while further enhancing user experience. • Conversion of Users to Paid Subscribers. In parallel, we are focused on converting a greater portion of our user base into paying subscribers through our X subscription (Premium and Premium+) and Grok subscription offerings. Subscribers benefit from enhanced functionality, exclusive features, and access to our latest AI models. As of December 31, 2025, we reached approximately 4.9 million active paid subscribers, which was comprised of approximately 4.1 million X Premium Basic, X Premium and Premium+ paid subscribers and approximately 0.9 million SuperGrok and SuperGrok Heavy paid subscribers. As of March 31, 2026, we reached approximately 6.3 million active paid subscribers, which was comprised of approximately 4.4 million X Premium Basic, X Premium and Premium+ paid subscribers and approximately 1.9 million SuperGrok, SuperGrok Heavy and SuperGrok Lite paid subscribers. We plan to continue adding new features and functionality while releasing increasingly capable Grok models to increase the penetration rate of our subscriber base. Our AI segment has demonstrated exceptional model velocity: since launching Grok, we have developed what we believe to be leading frontier models at a far faster rate of innovation than others. We believe this pace of innovation strengthens the value proposition of our subscription offerings and supports long-teen subscriber growth. -128- – , i ‑ r ‑ fro r r ‑ – ‑ ‑ ‑ rm


 
• Progress Toward the Everything App and New Monetization Channels. We aim to evolve X into an "Everything App," integrating real-time infounation, communications, media, payments, banking, commerce and more within one consumer experience. This can increase the usefulness of X, and therefore increase the usage and monetization potential of X. We have rapid product launch velocity, with a frequent cadence of new features and products launched since 2023, including features such as long-foul' video, improved group interactions, and creator tools. We plan to further broaden the value proposition of X through offerings like Money, a product we launched in beta in November 2025, which aims to expand platfolin utility by enabling payments and other financial services. We released X Chat in November 2025, which features end-to-end encryption and has no connection to advertising, unlike other services. We intend to further embed Grok throughout the platfoun to enhance discovery, analysis of posts, user support, and personalization, making core workflows more useful and reducing friction for users to adopt paid features. 5.5.10 Growing Enterprise and Government Adoption of Our AI Offerings Our future growth and financial perfounance depend in part on our ability to increase adoption and usage of our AI offerings among enterprise and government customers. We have launched Grok Business, Grok Enterprise, Grok API, and xAI Gov, products that we believe will be attractive to enterprises and governments, and we expect substantial opportunities to acquire new customers. We are also partnering with Cursor to advance Grok and potentially to create jointly-owned coding and knowledge work AI models, trained on our compute infrastructure. Over time, we also believe enterprises and governments will present significant opportunities for revenue expansion as they deploy our models more broadly across their organizations, adopt new capabilities, and build and operate solutions using our API. We also intend to continue to offer our compute infrastructure to third- party customers. Our ability to realize these expansion opportunities depends on continued innovation, reliable perfounance, and meeting evolving technical, security, and compliance requirements. 5.6 Components of Results of Operations 5.6.1 Description of Our Segments 5.6.1.1 Space 5.6.1.1.1 Revenue - Space Space segment generates revenue primarily through (i) Launch Services for the deployment of payloads to their intended orbits for both commercial and government customers utilizing Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy, and (ii) Launch and Development for the development of spacecraft and provision of launch and mission services for government agency space programs utilizing Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy, Starship, and Dragon. Launch Services revenue is derived from fixed-price contracts that range from one to five years. Launch and Development revenue is derived from fixed-price contracts that can range from one to fourteen years. The Company recognizes Launch Services revenue at a point in time, due to the interchangeability of flight hardware and minimal unique engineering costs. Revenue and costs are deferred and not recognized until upon the launch or deployment of the customer's payload to their intended orbit. The Company recognizes Launch and Development revenue over time as the Company's perfoiinance on the contract creates an asset with no alternative use and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for perfounance to date. The Company measures progress on these contracts using the cost-to-cost input method, which the Company believes represents the most appropriate measure towards satisfaction of its perfounance obligation. For launches of our Starlink satellites, the Company does not recognize any inter-segment revenue, rather those launch costs are capitalized in satellites in Property, plant, and equipment, net. We allocate a significant amount of launch capacity to our Connectivity segment, and expect to allocate a significant amount to our AI segment in the future. Our Space segment revenue only reflects our customer launches and customer activities. Revenue from Launch Services recognized at point in time and revenue from Launch and Development recognized over time as a percentage of total Space segment revenue are as follows: -129- a “ ” rm ‑ rm rm rm r rm rm r’ ’ rm rm rm


 
Three Months Ended March 31, Year Ended December 31, (unaudited, unless otherwise indicated) (in %) 2026 2025 2025 2024 2023 Launch Services 53.3% 65.4% 63.0% 68.2% 55.2% Launch & Development 46.7% 34.6% 37.0% 31.8% 44.8% Space 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% We expect Space revenue growth to continue to be lower than total company revenue growth as our internal business continues to absorb most of the growth in our launch capacity. In addition, we expect Launch and Development to represent a larger portion of our Space revenue as we continue to serve our long-teen contracts for our government customers. From period to period, Space revenue will vary based on the mix of launches used for customers and our own businesses. 5.6.1.1.2 Expenses - Space 5.6.1.1.2.1 Cost ofRevenue The Company's Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy are composed of boosters (also known as first stages), second stages, Merlin engines, and fairings. Boosters, fairings, and Merlin engines are reusable and are classified as property, plant, and equipment and are depreciated to cost of revenue. The second stages are not reusable and are recorded to cost of revenue when they are launched for Launch Services revenue transactions or assigned for Launch and Development revenue transactions. Dragon is comprised of a fully reusable capsule that is classified as Property, plant, and equipment, net and is depreciated to cost of revenue. Starship is comprised of a booster, ship, and Raptor engines and is currently in the development stage. A majority of Starship costs are currently expensed to Research and development as incurred. Raptor engines are expensed when used in test flights. Space segment's cost of revenue includes second stages flown related to the Company's Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launches, launch operations and overhead, depreciation (inclusive of booster, Merlin engine, and fairing depreciation), employee compensation costs (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation) for our operations teams, launch testing and overhead, engineering costs, inventory excess and obsolescence, shared costs incurred in the production of launch hardware, and ongoing product support. We expect Space cost of revenue to increase both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue based on our expected mix of Launch Services and Launch and Development. From period to period, Space segment cost of revenue will vary based on the mix of customer and internal launches. 5.6.1.1.2.2 Research and Development Space segment's research and development expenses mainly relate to the development, build, and testing of Starship. Starship costs consist of test flight hardware, Raptor engines, employee compensation costs (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation), tooling and equipment expenses, depreciation for R&D equipment, and allocated overhead. R&D also includes certain expenses related to the development of features and modules created through engineering services for the Company's Falcon vehicles, where the Company retains the associated intellectual property. We expect Space research and development to increase both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue in 2026, as we invest in the development and commercialization of Starship, and to moderate both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue once Starship is commercialized by delivering payload to orbit. At commercialization, Starship costs generally will be capitalized and then depreciated in cost of revenue of the segment associated with the payload delivered. 5.6.1.1.2.3 Selling, General, and Administrative Space segment's selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expenses include allocated employee compensation costs (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation) for our sales, facilities, legal, finance, infounation technology, human resources, and other administrative employees, depreciation, and corporate aircraft costs. We expect Space segment's SG&A to increase in absolute dollars to support growth of our business, and to decrease as a percentage of revenue as we continue to work to reduce operating costs as a percentage of revenue. -130- ......................................................... ............................................. .......................................................................... _________________ rm R ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ l, ’ “ ” rm ’


 
5.6.1.1.2.4 Impairment Space impairment includes impairment losses on fixed assets due to anomalies on the Company's flight vehicles and launch sites, which occur outside our normal business operations. 5.6.1.2 Connectivity 5.6.1.2.1 Revenue - Connectivity Connectivity segment generates revenue from (i) the broadband and mobile connectivity services provided through Starlink and (ii) the sale of the Starlink Kit (inclusive of the terminal). The Company provides connectivity services and Starlink Kits to consumers or enterprise and government customers. The Company recognizes revenue from broadband and mobile connectivity services over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided. The Company generates service revenue from (i) fixed-price services that require advance or recurring monthly payments by the customer or (ii) variable- priced services based on actual data consumption. The amounts received from customers for advanced payments for broadband and mobile connectivity services are recognized either ratably over the subscription term or based on actual data consumption. The Company's broadband contracts are generally month-to-month and the revenue recognized for these recurring consumer customers is equal to the amount billed in that month. The Company's mobile connectivity agreements are generally multi-year contractual obligation that range from one to five years, although the customer can generally terminate at any time. The Company recognizes revenue over time for certain contracts related to our Starshield business that are multi-year in nature. For revenue that is recognized over time, we use the cost -to-cost input method. The Company records revenue based upon costs (such as materials and labor hours) incurred to date relative to the total estimated cost at completion. The Company records revenue for the Starlink Kit upon delivery to the customer, or in the instance of certain enterprise customers, when it is installed. Starlink Kit revenue is reported net of sales returns, credits, and chargebacks. 5.6.1.2.2 Expenses - Connectivity 5.6.1.2.2.1 Cost of Revenue Connectivity segment's cost of revenue includes depreciation (inclusive of launch, satellite, and ground infrastructure costs), Starlink Kit costs, shipping and handling costs, ground operating expenses, employee compensation costs (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation) for our engineering and operations teams, payment processor fees, warranty expense, inventory excess and obsolescence, and customs and duties. We expect Connectivity cost of revenue to increase in absolute dollars as we grow our revenue, and to decrease as a percentage of revenue as we continue to drive efficiencies in our next-generation satellites, Starlink Kits, and ground infrastructure. 5.6.1.2.2.2 Research and Development Connectivity segment's R&D expenses mainly relate to the development, build, and testing of our next - generation satellites, Starlink Kits, and ground infrastructure. These costs include employee compensation costs (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation), contractor compensation expenses, equipment lease expenses, depreciation for R&D equipment, and allocated overhead. We expect Connectivity research and development to increase in absolute dollars as we grow our revenue, and to decrease as a percentage of revenue as we scale our business. 5.6.1.2.2.3 Selling, General, and Administrative Connectivity segment's SG&A expenses include allocated employee compensation costs (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation) for our sales, facilities, legal, finance, information technology, human resources, and other administrative employees, licensing and regulatory fees, marketing expenses, depreciation, and bad debt expense. -131- ’ ’ ’ ’ ’ l, ’


 
We expect Connectivity SG&A to increase in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue in 2026 as we introduce marketing spend to support growth of our business, and to decrease as a percentage of revenue over time as we continue to work to reduce operating costs as a percentage of revenue. 5.6.1.2.2.4 Impairment Connectivity impairment includes costs related to discontinuation of a product line for Starlink Kits that is non-recurring. 5.6.1.3 AI 5.6.1.3.1 Revenue - AI AI segment generates revenue from (i) the sale of ad products displayed on its X platfoli_I, and (ii) providing AI solutions and infrastructure, which includes subscription-related offerings, data licensing arrangements, and API access to Grok models. Both services are offered to consumer and enterprise customers. Revenue for advertising services is recognized in the period when advertising is delivered as evidenced by a person engaging with an ad on the Company's platforms in a manner satisfying the types of engagement selected by the advertisers. The Company's contract terms for advertising services are typically month-to-month. We experience seasonality in our advertising revenues. Overall advertising spend tends to be highest in the fourth quarter of each year due in large part to end-of-year advertiser spending and lowest in the first quarter of each year. Revenue for AI solutions and infrastructure includes: (i) premium subscriptions on X and Grok which is recognized ratably over the period of the subscription teen (ranging from month-to-month to one year), (ii) data licensing revenue which is generally recognized ratably over the period (from month-to-month to two years) in which the Company provides data as the customer consumes and benefits from the use of the licensed data, and (iii) revenue from providing API access to Grok models recognized ratably over the contract tem' (typically month-to-month or up to one year) for stand-ready access or as services are consumed for usage based arrangements. 5.6.1.3.2 Expenses - AI 5.6.1.3.2.1 Cost ofRevenue AI segment's cost of revenue includes infrastructure costs, revenue share expenses, payment processor fees, payments to creators, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and allocated labor and overhead costs. Infrastructure costs consist primarily of costs related to data center facilities, including lease and hosting costs, related support, maintenance, energy, and bandwidth costs, depreciation of servers and networking equipment, public cloud hosting costs, and employee compensation costs (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation) for our operations teams. We expect AI cost of revenue to increase in absolute dollars as we grow our revenue, and to decrease as a percentage of revenue as we monetize our products and as we expand our service offerings for AI solutions. 5.6.1.3.2.2 Research and Development AI segment's R&D expenses mainly relate to the training of Grok, our leading frontier model, development, build, and testing of our next-generation AI-enabled products and data center costs to train AI- enabled products. These costs include cloud computing expenses, employee compensation expenses (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation), power generation costs, and depreciation of data center assets, including processors, equipment lease expenses, and networking equipment.

technology, human resources and other administrative employees. In addition, SG&A expenses include fees and costs for professional services, including consulting, content moderation, third-party legal and accounting services and facilities costs and other supporting overhead costs that are not allocated to other departments. We expect AI SG&A to increase in absolute dollars to support growth of our business, and to decrease as a percentage of revenue as we continue to work to reduce operating costs as a percentage of revenue. Additionally, AI SG&A may increase as a result of the compute agreement with Cursor. 5.6.1.3.2.4 Restructuring Charges AI restructuring charges are the result of the acquisition of Twitter in October 2022 by X Holdings. The charges include workforce restructuring for founer Twitter employees, as well as impailment and early teimination penalties as a result of consolidation of Twitter's various office leases. 5.6.1.3.2.5 Impairment AI impailment includes a one-time impaili_lent of the Twitter brand when Twitter was rebranded to X in July 2023. 5.6.1.4 Other Corporate Expenses 5.6.1.4.1 Interest Expense Interest expense includes interest expense related to our borrowings, amortization of associated debt issuance costs, undrawn fees, and finance leases. Interest expense is reflected net of capitalized interest. 5.6.1.4.2 Interest Income Interest income includes interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, and dividend income from our investments in mutual funds. 5.6.1.4.3 Other Income (Expense), Net Other income (expense), net consists of gain or loss on digital assets, gain or loss on foreign currency transactions, and loss on extinguishment of debt. 5.6.1.4.4 Provision for (Benefit from) Income Taxes The provision for (benefit from) income taxes consists primarily of income taxes in certain federal, state, local and foreign jurisdictions in which we conduct business. Foreign jurisdictions typically have different statutory tax rates from those in the United States. Accordingly, our effective tax rates may vary depending on the impact of the valuation allowance as well as the relative proportion of foreign income to domestic income, generation of tax credits, changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and changes in tax laws. 5.6.2 Revenue by Geography The following table provides a breakdown of revenue by geography based on the country of domicile in which the transaction originated: (audited) (in millions) Year Ended December 31, 2025 2024 2023 United States $12,966 $10,008 $7,473 Ireland 1,827 1,371 1,047 Canada 764 582 447 All Other 3,117 2,054 1,420 Total Revenues $18,674 $14,015 $10,387 -133- rm r r itt r’ r rm ............................................................... ......................................................................... ........................................................................ ..................................................................... ...........................................................

The increase in AI solutions and infrastructure was primarily due to an increase in Grok and X subscription revenue of $177 million and an increase in data licensing arrangements of $12 million. The decrease in advertising revenue is due to an overhaul of the Company's advertising platfouni which impacted ad sales for a short period of time during the rebuild. 5.7.2.3.2 Cost of Revenue Cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $5 million, or 1.1%, compared to the prior three months ended March 31, 2025. This increase was primarily due to an increase in revenue share and content creator expenses of $71 million, and higher payment processing fees of $18 million, partially offset by a decrease in amortization expenses of technology intangibles of $89 million that were fully amortized during 2025. 5.7.2.3.3 Research and Development Research and development for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $1,471 million, or 162.0%, compared to the prior three months ended March 31, 2025. This increase was primarily due to higher GPU depreciation expense of $908 million, and higher cloud computing and data center infrastructure expenses of $301 million associated with the continued build out of our compute infrastructure, as well as higher employee compensation expenses (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation) of $262 million. 5.7.2.3.4 Selling, General, and Administrative Selling, general, and administrative for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $163 million, or 54.3%, compared to the prior three months ended March 31, 2025. This increase was primarily due to higher employee compensation expenses (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation) of $148 million as we continue to expand our AI business and higher legal expenses of $33 million, partially offset by a decrease in facilities and general and administrative costs of $18 million. 5.7.2.3.5 Restructuring Charges (Credits) Restructuring charges (credits) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $15 million compared to the prior three months ended March 31, 2025. This decrease was primarily due to a change in estimated settlement amounts for founer Twitter employees as part of the workforce reduction program implemented in 2022. -138- ....................................................... ....................................... ..................................... .................... ...... ............................ ................ .................................... ________________ – ’ rm rm

This increase was primarily due to higher R&D costs in our AI segment of $3,888 million driven by the depreciation of GPU hardware and the cost of cloud computing as a result of our AI data center expansions and higher R&D costs from our Space segment of $1,169 million driven by accelerated investment in our Starship vehicle. 5.8.1.4 Selling, General, and Administrative Selling, general, and administrative expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $831 million, or 45.8%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to higher employee and facilities-related costs and higher legal expenses for our AI segment of $722 million as our AI business grew rapidly, and higher marketing and international expansion costs of $40 million and $37 million, respectively, for our Connectivity segment. These increases were partially offset by lower allocated general and administrative overhead in our Space segment. 5.8.1.5 Restructuring Charges Restructuring charges for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $274 million, or 128.6%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to additional expense related to the settlement to former Twitter employees as part of the workforce reduction program implemented in 2022. 5.8.1.6 Impairment Impairment for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $25 million, or 39.7%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily related to a discontinuation of a Starlink Kit production line in our Connectivity segment that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2024 with no impairment in 2025, partially offset by an increase in impairment in our Space Segment during the year ended December 31, 2025 primarily related to a post-landing anomaly. 5.8.1.7 Income (Loss) from Operations Income (loss) from operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $3,055 million compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2024 driven by the factors described above. 5.8.1.8 Interest Expense Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $365 million, or 23.1%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to new term loans and senior notes entered into by the Company and other financing arrangements for GPUs entered into during the year by our AI segment. 5.8.1.9 Interest Income Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $121 million, or 32.6%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to an increase in dividend income earned from marketable securities and cash equivalents. 5.8.1.10 Other Income (Expense), Net Other income (expense), net for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $1,162 million, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2024. This decrease was primarily due to an unrealized loss on digital assets. 5.8.1.11 Provision for (Benefit from) Income Taxes Provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $1,267 million compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to a partial valuation allowance release in 2024 and the establishment of a valuation allowance in 2025. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company released a partial valuation allowance on the Company's U.S. deferred tax assets. As of December 31, -140- , f f f ’


 
2024, the Company forecasted $659 million of deferred tax assets related to U.S. R&D credits would be utilized in the future. For the year ended December 31, 2025, we assessed the realizability of our deferred tax assets and reversed the benefit that was recognized for the year ended December 31, 2024 based on cumulative pretax losses adjusted for peimanent differences and other negative evidence. 5.8.1.12 Net Income (Loss) Net income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $5,728 million compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2024 driven by the factors described above. 5.8.2 Segment Results 5.8.2.1 Space Year Ended December 31, 2025 vs. 2024 Change (audited, unless otherwise indicated) (in millions, unless otherwise indicated) 2025 2024 $ Change* % Change* Revenue $4,086 $3,796 $290 7.6% Costs and expenses Cost of revenue 1,352 1,541 (189) I (12.2)% Research and development 3,004 1,835 1,169 63.7% Selling, general, and administrative 349 375 (26) (6.9)% Impahi lent 38 24 14 61.5% Total costs and expenses $4,743 $3,775 $968 25.7% Income (loss) from operations $(657) $21 $(678) NM * - Unaudited.

Launch Services revenue remained relatively flat year over year, while Launch and Development revenue increased by $298 million. The Launch and Development revenue increase was primarily driven by increased revenue for an extended contract with NASA for additional Cargo Resupply Services (CRS) missions to the International Space Station and increased revenue from a U.S. Department of War contract. While total Falcon launches increased by 31 from 134 in 2024 to 165 in 2025, Space customer launches and average price per launch remained relatively flat year over year. 5.8.2.1.2 Cost of Revenue Cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $189 million, or 12.2%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2024. This decrease was primarily due to increased reusability of our Falcon launch vehicles resulting in lower deprecation of $240 million, lowering the cost of each launch, and lower overhead costs of $11 million. The decrease is also due to the relative increase in Starlink satellite launches from 89 launches in 2024 to 122 launches in 2025, resulting in relatively more of our launch operations and overhead costs capitalized in our Connectivity segment of $14 million. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in inventory excess and obsolescence reserves of $51 million mainly due to less demand on rocket vehicle and spacecraft parts as reusability has increased. 5.8.2.1.3 Research and Development Research and development for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $1,169 million, or 63.7%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily driven by higher production costs of $779 million, higher launch costs of $218 million, and higher engineering costs of $185 million, due to the accelerated investment in development of the Starship vehicle and continued development of production and launch facilities to support future Starship launches. -141- r ........................................................ ...................................................................... ...................................................................... ...................................................................... ...................................................................... ....................................... ...................................... .................... ............................................................... ............................................................... ...... ............................................................... irm ............................................ ............................................................... ................. ........................................................ ...................... ________________ –

as our Connectivity enterprise and government sales, and an increase in revenue from our Space segment of $239 million due to the increase in Falcon 9 launches partially offset by a decrease in Launch and Development revenue due to timing of government contracts. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in revenue from our AI segment of $341 million driven by a decrease in advertising sales, partially offset by an increase in X subscriptions and data licensing arrangements. 5.9.1.2 Cost of Revenue Cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased by $1,886 million, or 30.9%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was primarily due to a higher cost of revenue from the Connectivity segment of $1,982 million as a result of the higher volume spend on Starlink Kits as deliveries increased and higher depreciation of launch costs driven by an increase in the number of satellites placed into orbit, partially offset by cost efficiency from increased reusability of our F alcon launch vehicles in our Space segment of $128 million. 5.9.1.3 Research and Development Research and development for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased by $1,359 million, or 64.6%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was primarily due to higher cost in our AI segment of $990 million related to advancing our AI technologies and higher costs of $297 million in our Space segment for investment in Starship production, launch and engineering costs, and related facilities. 5.9.1.4 Selling, General, and Administrative Selling, general, and administrative for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased by $148 million, or 8.9%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was primarily due to: (i) higher international expansion costs of $18 million, higher employee compensation expenses (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation) of $11 million, and higher allocated general and administrative overhead of $54 million in our Connectivity segment, and (ii) higher employee compensation expenses (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation) and professional fees of $25 million in our Space segment. 5.9.1.5 Restructuring Charges Restructuring charges for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased by $24 million, or 10.1%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023. This decrease was due to the impairment on office leases assumed as part of the Twitter acquisition that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2023, partially offset by an increase in workforce-related restructuring charges. 5.9.1.6 Impairment Impairment for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased by $3,712 million, or 98.3%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023. The impahment during the year ended December 31, 2023 was primarily related to the impahment of the Twitter brand following its rebranding to X. 5.9.1.7 Income (Loss) from Operations Income from operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased by $3,971 million compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023 driven by the factors described above. 5.9.1.8 Interest Expense Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased by $113 million, or 6.7%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023. This decrease was primarily due to the debt issuance costs related to the X Bridge Credit Facilities being amortized only through July 2024, the original maturity date, as compared to a full year of amortization in 2023. 5.9.1.9 Interest Income Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased by $122 million, or 49.0%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was primarily due to an increase in dividend income earned from marketable securities. -145- , ir ir f

Launch Services Revenue increased by $620 million as total Falcon launches increased by 38 from 96 in 2023 to 134 in 2024, with Launch Services missions increasing by 8. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of $381 million for Launch and Development revenue due to decreased activity in our International Space Station contracts and lower revenue from a U.S. Department of War contract. 5.9.2.1.2 Cost of Revenue Cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased by $128 million, or 7.6%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023. This decrease was primarily due to increased reusability of our Falcon launch vehicles resulting in lower depreciation of $80 million, lowering the cost of each launch. The decrease was also due to the relative increase in Starlink satellite launches from 63 launches in 2023 to 89 launches in 2024, resulting in relatively more of our launch operations and overhead costs capitalized in our Connectivity segment of $99 million. This decrease was offset by an increase in launch overhead costs of $77 million due to the increase in Falcon launches. 5.9.2.1.3 Research and Development Research and development for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased by $297 million, or 19.3%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023.

This increase was primarily driven by an increase of $2,013 million in revenue from our consumer subscribers, composed of 96.5% growth in Starlink Subscribers offset by a 8.1% decline in Starlink Subscriber ARPU primarily due to international expansion. In addition, Connectivity revenue had an increase of $1,717 million from our enterprise and government customers, primarily driven by the growth in our enterprise connectivity business of $466 million and growth in our government connectivity business of $1,250 million. 5.9.2.2.2 Cost of Revenue Cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased by $1,982 million, or 71.1%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was primarily due to higher volume spend on Starlink Kits of $907 million driven by higher kit deliveries and higher depreciation of $555 million from capitalized launch and satellite costs driven by an increase in the number of launches and satellites placed into orbit. 5.9.2.2.3 Research and Development Research and development for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased by $72 million, or 18.8%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023.

This decrease was due to a decrease in advertising revenue of $595 million, partially offset by an increase in AI solutions and infrastructure revenue of $254 million. The decrease in advertising revenue was due to the loss of advertising partners for X. The increase in AI solutions and infrastructure was due to an increase in X subscription revenue of $157 million and an increase in data licensing arrangements of $90 million. In 2023 and 2024, substantially all of our AI segment revenue consisted of advertising, subscriptions, and data licensing revenue generated from X, formerly known as Twitter. 5.9.2.3.2 Cost of Revenue Cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased by $32 million, or 1.9%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was primarily due to higher server depreciation of $97 million, partially offset by lower infrastructure and revenue share expenses of $46 million, and lower employee and facilities-related expenses of $18 million resulting from the Company's restructuring and cost reduction efforts. -148- rm r ..................................................... .................................... ................................... ................. ... ......................... rm ......................................... – ............. ................................. _________________ – ’

This increase was primarily due to increased investments made in advancing our AI technologies, including employee compensation expenses (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation) and infrastructure services of $703 million and higher depreciation of $321 million for our equipment hardware. 5.9.2.3.4 Selling, General, and Administrative Selling, general, and administrative for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased by $24 million, or 2.3%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was primarily due to an increase in our amortization expense of $107 million related to the Twitter brand becoming a finite-lived intangible asset and higher legal costs of $65 million, partially offset by lower employee and facilities related costs of $125 million and lower professional fees of $23 million resulting from the Company's restructuring and cost reduction efforts. 5.9.2.3.5 Restructuring charges Restructuring charges for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased by $24 million, or 10.2%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023. This decrease was due to the impairment on the office leases assumed as part of the Twitter acquisition that primarily occurred during the year ended December 31, 2023, partially offset by an increase in workforce-related restructuring charges. 5.9.2.3.6 Impairment Impairment for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased by $3,775 million compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023. The impairment during the year ended December 31, 2023 was related to the impairment of the Twitter brand intangible asset following its rebranding to X. 5.9.2.3.7 Loss from Operations Loss from operations in the AI segment for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased by $2,412 million, or 60.7%, compared to the prior year ended December 31, 2023 driven by the factors described above. 5.10 Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures Management believes that certain financial measures that are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP provide management and investors with useful supplemental information that provides a meaningful view of our financial condition and results of operations across periods by removing the impact of items that management believes do not directly reflect our ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures that are not required by or presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In evaluating our performance as measured by Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA, management recognizes and considers the limitations of these measures. Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do or may not calculate them at all, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss), income (loss) from operations, or any other measure calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and should be considered together with our U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations to the corresponding most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures set forth in this prospectus. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) excluding (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) share- based compensation, (iii) impairment, (iv) restructuring charges, (v) interest expense, (vi) interest income, (vii) other income (expense), net and (viii) provision for income taxes. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is defined as segment income (loss) from operations excluding (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) share-based compensation, (iii) restructuring charges, and (iv) impairment. Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA are key performance measures that our management uses to assess our financial performance as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We consider Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA to be meaningful performance measures for investors to evaluate our operating performance and to compare the financial results between periods. -149- ’

As of March 31, 2026, we have $1,500 million available to borrow under the SpaceX Credit Facility (as defined below). The cash we generate from our core operations also enables us to fund our research and development projects including our Starship rocket and next- generation satellites, the construction of future data centers, and the continued expansion of our AI-enabled products. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in checking accounts, money market accounts, and certificates of deposit at high quality financial institutions primarily in the U.S. -151- ................................................... .......................................................................................... .................................................. ....................................................... ............................................................... – – rm ............................................................................... – – * .................................................... _________________ – ................................................... .......................................................................................... .................................................. ....................................................... ............................................................... – – rm ............................................................................... – * .................................................... _________________ – ................................................... .......................................................................................... .................................................. ....................................................... ............................................................... – – rm ............................................................................... – – * .................................................... _______________ – rm


 
The Company maintains certain cash and cash equivalents for which the withdrawal or use is restricted. The restricted cash and cash equivalents are generally held in separate, dedicated accounts required to secure letters of credit related to various customer, insurance, and facility lease agreements. In addition, because we expect a significant portion of our future expenditures to fund growth initiatives, we retain flexibility to adjust spending across segments. For example, if our near-tem' data center needs decrease in scale or ramp more slowly than expected, including due to global economic, tax, trade or business conditions, we may reduce future capital expenditures in this segment and reallocate those expenditures to other segments based on business priorities and growth opportunities. In addition, we continually evaluate our cash needs and may decide it is best to raise additional capital or seek alternative financing sources to fund the rapid growth of our business, including through drawdowns on existing or new debt facilities. We may seek to refinance the SpaceX Bridge Loan (as defined below), including with the proceeds from notes offerings, bank borrowings, or other financial arrangements. We may also from time to time deteunine that it is in our best interests to voluntarily repay certain indebtedness early. 5.11.1 Debt Agreements 5.11.1.1 SpaceX Credit Facility In February 2025, SpaceX entered into a five-year senior unsecured revolving credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and a syndicate of banks, including Bank of America, N.A.; Citibank, N.A.; Goldman Sachs Bank USA; JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.; Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A.; Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc.; Barclays Bank PLC; Deutsche Bank, AG New York Branch; Wells Fargo Bank, National Association; Royal Bank of Canada; UBS AG, Stamford Branch; and Standard Chartered Bank, under which the Company may borrow up to $1,500 million ("SpaceX Credit Facility"). The SpaceX Credit Facility is subject to certain customary representations, warranties, covenants, and events of default, including a maximum financial covenant requiring the Company to maintain a Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the SpaceX Credit Facility) of no greater than 3.75 to 1.0 as of the end of each fiscal quarter (subject to temporary increases to 4.25 to 1.0 following certain qualified acquisitions) and other customary reporting requirements. The SpaceX Credit Facility also includes sublimits of up to $150 million for financial letters of credit and up to $1,000 million for perfoiinance letters of credit. The SpaceX Credit Facility teuninates, and all outstanding loans become due and payable, on February 7, 2030, unless the parties agree to an extension in accordance with the tern's of the SpaceX Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, no amounts were outstanding under the SpaceX Credit Facility. Borrowings under the SpaceX Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company's option, at a rate per annum equal to (i) a forward-looking tem' rate based on SOFR ("Term SOFR") plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.75% and 1.25% (depending on the Company's debt rating), or (ii) a base rate equal to the highest of (a) Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, (b) the Prime Rate, (c) Tem' SOFR plus 1.00%, and (d) 1.00% plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.0% and 0.25% (depending on the Company's debt rating). The Company may also borrow in various alternative currencies, with interest calculated at rates based on SONIA for Pound Sterling-denominated loans and EURIBOR for Euro-denominated loans, plus an applicable margin. In addition, the Company pays a commitment fee on the unused portion of the SpaceX Credit Facility, which ranges from 0.07% (amended to 0.06% under the Amended SpaceX Credit Facility, as defined and described below) to 0.11% per annum based on the Company's debt rating. As of March 31, 2026, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the SpaceX Credit Facility. In March 2026, the Company entered into a First Amendment to Credit Agreement and Waiver (the "First Amendment") with its lenders, in connection with the Company's entry into the SpaceX Bridge Loan (as defined below). The First Amendment, among other things, (i) waived certain specified defaults and (ii) amended certain definitions and covenants under the SpaceX Credit Facility to confoiuu to the tell_is of the SpaceX Bridge Loan. In May 2026, SpaceX amended the SpaceX Credit Facility to increase the borrowing capacity up to $5,000 million ("Amended SpaceX Credit Facility"). As part of the Amended SpaceX Credit Facility, the sublimit for perfoiinance letters of credit was increased to $2,000 million. The Amended SpaceX Credit Facility teuninates, and all outstanding loans become due and payable, on May 19, 2031, unless the parties agree to an extension in accordance with the tern's of the Amended SpaceX Credit Facility. All other tern's were consistent with the tern's of the SpaceX Credit Facility. -152- r rm i “ ” rm rm m ’ rm “ ” ’ r ’ ’ “ ” ’ rm rm “ ” rm rm m m m


 
5.11.1.2 SpaceX Bridge Loan In March 2026, SpaceX entered into a new bridge loan credit agreement (the "SpaceX Bridge Loan") with Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders, including Goldman Sachs Bank USA; Bank of America, N.A.; JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.; Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A.; Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc.; Deutsche Bank, AG New York Branch; Barclays Bank PLC; Royal Bank of Canada; UBS AG, Stamford Branch; Wells Fargo Bank, National Association; and Standard Chartered Bank, providing for an unsecured bridge tem' loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $20,000 million. The SpaceX Bridge Loan matures on September 2, 2027, with two three-month extensions at the Company's option, subject to the absence of a continuing default and the payment of an extension fee of 0.25% of the aggregate outstanding principal per extension, resulting in a final extended maturity date of March 2028. The proceeds of the SpaceX Bridge Loan were used to repay the X B-1 Tell' Loan, the X B-3 Tell' Loan, the xAI Fixed Rate Loan, the xAI Floating Rate Loan and the xAI 12.5% Senior Secured Notes (as defined and described in Note 10, Debt, to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus). The Company may also use the remaining proceeds for general corporate purposes. The SpaceX Bridge Loan bears interest, at the Company's election, at a rate per annum equal to (i) Teiiu SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.75%-1.75% (depending on the Company's debt rating), or (ii) a base rate equal to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, (b) the Prime Rate, (c) Teen SOFR plus 1.0% and (d) 1.00%, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% (depending on the Company's debt rating). In addition, the Company is obligated to pay duration fees equal to 0.125% of outstanding principal on the first anniversary of closing and 0.25% of outstanding principal on the fifteen-month anniversary of closing. As of March 31, 2026, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the SpaceX Bridge Loan. The obligations of the Company under the SpaceX Bridge Loan are guaranteed on a joint and several basis by X Corp., X.AI LLC, and CTC Property LLC (each a subsidiary of the Company). The SpaceX Bridge Loan may be prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. The Company is required to use an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of certain debt financings to repay amounts outstanding under the SpaceX Bridge Loan and to apply an amount equal the net proceeds of a qualified initial public offering, including the global offering, to repay such amounts within six months following receipt of such proceeds. The SpaceX Bridge Loan contains customary events of default and affiii_lative and negative covenants, including restrictions on liens, subsidiary indebtedness, fundamental changes (including a prohibition on the disposition of Starlink assets and other material businesses outside the consolidated group), and changes in the nature of the Company's business. The sole financial maintenance covenant requires the Company to maintain a Consolidated Leverage Ratio — defined as consolidated funded indebtedness (net of 85% of unrestricted cash) to Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the SpaceX Bridge Loan) — of no greater than 3.75 to 1.0 as of the end of each fiscal quarter, with a temporary step-up to 4.25 to 1.0 for four fiscal quarters following a qualifying acquisition of at least $1.0 billion. 5.11.2 Past Capital Expenditures The following table presents our capital expenditures by segment: (unaudited) (in millions) Three Months ended March 31, Year Ended December 31, 2026 2025 2025 2024 2023 Space $1,052 $759 $3,832 $2,032 $1,497 Connectivity 1,332 814 4,178 3,498 2,455 AI 7,723 2,567 12,727 5,633 463 Total capital expenditures(1) $10,107 $4,140 $20,737 $11,163 $4,415 (1) Presented as "purchases of property, plant and equipment" within the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements. Capital expenditures during the periods presented primarily related to investments in launch infrastructure and manufacturing capabilities for Starship within the Space segment, expansion of the Starlink satellite constellation and related ground infrastructure within the Connectivity segment, and the rapid build-out -153- “ ” rm ’ erm erm ’ rm ’ rm ’ rm ’ – – .......................................................................... ............................................................... ................................................................................ (1)........................................ _______________ “ ”


 
of terrestrial AI compute infrastructure, including data centers, processors, networking equipment and supporting power infrastructure, within the AI segment. The increase in capital expenditures since 2023 reflects accelerated investment in Starship infrastructure and development activities, continued expansion of the Starlink constellation and related infrastructure, and significant investment in terrestrial AI compute infrastructure and data center capacity expansion. 5.11.2.1 Space Capital Expenditures Space capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $293 million to $1,052 million compared to $759 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by increased investment in our launch site infrastructure for Starship. Space capital expenditures for 2025 increased $1,800 million to $3,832 million compared to $2,032 million in 2024, while Space capital expenditures for 2024 increased $535 million to $2,032 million compared to $1,497 million in 2023. The increase in each year-over-year period was primarily driven by increased investment in our launch site infrastructure for Starship, including related to development of Starship production capabilities, launch site infrastructure, launch facilities, testing infrastructure and related equipment. 5.11.2.2 Connectivity Capital Expenditures Connectivity capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $518 million to $1,332 million compared to $814 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher satellite and ground equipment costs as we continue to increase our number of satellites and grow our satellite network. Connectivity capital expenditures for 2025 increased $680 million to $4,178 million compared to $3,498 million in 2024, while Connectivity capital expenditures for 2024 increased $1,043 million to $3,498 million compared to $2,455 million in 2023. The increase in each year-over-year period was primarily driven by higher satellite and ground equipment costs as we continue to increase our number of satellites and grow our satellite network. 5.11.2.3 AI Capital Expenditures AI capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $5,156 million to $7,723 million compared to $2,567 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by investments in the rapid expansion of our terrestrial data centers, including the development, construction, and equipping of new facilities and supporting infrastructure associated with the expansion of COLOSSUS and COLOSSUS II. AI capital expenditures for 2025 increased $7,094 million to $12,727 million compared to $5,633 million in 2024, while AI capital expenditures for 2024 increased $5,170 million to $5,633 million compared to $463 million in 2023. This increase was primarily driven by significant investments in the rapid expansion of our terrestrial data centers, including the development, construction, and equipping of new facilities and supporting infrastructure. 5.11.3 Material Cash Commitments From time to time in the ordinary course of business, we enter into agreements with suppliers for the purchase of parts and raw materials to manufacture our products. However, due to contractual teens, variability in the precise growth curves of our development and production ramps, and opportunities to renegotiate pricing, these contracts generally do not have long-teen binding and enforceable purchase orders, and the timing and magnitude of purchase orders beyond the short teen is difficult to accurately project. Because we do not have long-teen purchase orders for these parts and raw materials, future purchases may result in material cash commitments. For additional information about this risk, please refer to "1. Risk Factors" in this prospectus. On September 7, 2025, the Company entered into a License Purchase Agreement (the "Spectrum License Purchase Agreement") with Spectrum Business Trust 2025-1, a Nevada Business Trust ("Trust") and EchoStar Corporation (EchoStar) for the purchase of EchoStar's licenses related to 50 MHz of spectrum (the "AWS-4 and H-Block Licenses" and the transactions contemplated thereby, "Spectrum Transaction"). On November 5, 2025 the parties amended and restated the Spectrum License Purchase Agreement to include EchoStar's licenses for up to 15 MHz of additional unpaired AWS-3 spectrum (together with the AWS-4 and H- -154- rm rm rm rm “ ” “ ” “ ” r’ “ ” “ ” r’


 
Block Licenses, the "Spectrum Licenses"). The total consideration for the acquisition of the Spectrum Licenses is approximately $19.6 billion, consisting of (i) approximately $11.1 billion in equity, payable through the issuance of approximately 261.8 million shares of the Company's Class A common stock at a fixed value of $42.40 per share, and (ii) up to $8.5 billion related to the payoff of designated EchoStar debt, with any shortfall below $8.5 billion to be paid in cash. The allocation of cash and equity consideration is subject to certain adjustments based on the amount of EchoStar debt satisfied at or prior to closing. The Spectrum License Purchase Agreement provides that the transfer of the Spectrum Licenses occurs in two steps: first, the transfer of the Spectrum Licenses by EchoStar to the Trust (the "Spectrum Transfer Closing"), and second, the Spectrum Licenses will be transferred by the Trust to the Company (the "Spectrum Acquisition Closing"). The foreign assets will be transferred directly to the Company at the Spectrum Acquisition Closing, to the extent the required regulatory approvals have been obtained by such date; provided, however, that the failure to obtain such approvals will not delay or prevent the Spectrum Acquisition Closing. In connection with the Spectrum License Purchase Agreement, the Company and the Trust entered into a credit agreement (the "Spectrum Credit Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company has agreed upon the Spectrum Transfer Closing, to make payments to the Trust (via loans which are contemplated to be forgiven at six-month intervals), for the Trust to make payments on EchoStar's debt (interest only) through at least November 30, 2027, but in no event later than November 30, 2028. Although these payments are structured as loans from the Company to the Trust, there is no expectation of repayment as the loan payments are forgiven and are accounted for as additional consideration for the acquisition of the Spectrum Licenses. Accordingly, the payments are recognized as prepaid assets until the Spectrum Acquisition Closing at which point they will be recognized as intangible assets. Total payments expected to be made under the Spectrum Credit Agreement are $1,241 million in 2026 and $828 million in 2027, assuming an expected closing date of November 30, 2027. The Company may need to make additional payments totaling $827 million if the Spectrum Acquisition Closing occurs at November 30, 2028. The Spectrum Transaction was approved by the FCC on May 12, 2026, the Spectrum Transfer Closing occurred on May 22, 2026. On that date, the Spectrum Licenses were transferred to the Trust, where they will remain until the Spectrum Acquisition Closing. Upon closing, the Company intends to either use cash and cash equivalents on hand or seek alternative financing sources to fund the cash payment to EchoStar. The $11.1 billion equity consideration will be issued at the Spectrum Acquisition Closing. As of March 31, 2026, we and our subsidiaries had outstanding $29,132 million in aggregate principal amount of indebtedness and no debt principal payments are due until August 28, 2027 if we choose not to extend. As March 31, 2026, our total minimum lease payments was $5,823 million, of which $1,026 million is due within this fiscal year. For details regarding our indebtedness and lease obligations, refer to Note 10, Debt, and Note 11, Leases of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 9, Debt of our Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. 5.11.4 Current and Future Capital Expenditures In March 2026, the Company executed a purchase agreement with an unaffiliated third party to acquire additional turbines for the AI infrastructure totaling $805 million through 2029 in the United States. For this deal, the Company expects to fund the purchase using cash and cash equivalents on hand. In September 2025, the Company announced their entry into a definitive agreement with EchoStar to purchase its AWS -4 and H-block spectrum licenses (transaction expected to close on or about November 30, 2027). These material investments and commitments are with respect to U.S. operations. For the Echo Star deal, the Company expects to fund the purchase using cash and cash equivalents on hand or seek alternative financing sources. On April 30, 2026, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement to purchase certain mobile gas turbines and related packages for approximately $2,000 million. The seller has also agreed to enter into a post- closing services agreement to support the Company's turbine operations. This acquisition will help provide power to the Company's data centers. As of the date of this prospectus, the Board of Directors has resolved on future capital expenditures for the year ending December 31, 2026, none of which, individually or in aggregate, are material for the SpaceX Group. 5.11.5 Summary of Cash Flows The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated: -155- “ ” ’ “ ” “ ” “ ” ’


 
Three Months Ended March 31, Year Ended December 31, (audited, unless otherwise indicated) (in millions) 2026* 2025* 2025 2024 2023 Net cash provided by (used in) Operating activities $1,047 $727 $6,785 $5,776 $4,520 Investing activities $(16,724) $(4,170) $(19,575) $(10,796) $(4,867) Financing activities $7,125 $354 $26,350 $11,830 $422 *— Unaudited 5.11.5.1 Operating Activities Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $320 million from $727 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $1,047 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in working capital for deferred revenue of $1,153 million from upfront payments from our Space and Connectivity customers, partially offset by lower net income exclusive of non-cash items. Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $1,009 million from $5,776 million during the year ended December 31, 2024 to $6,785 million during the year ended December 31, 2025. This increase was primarily driven by higher net income exclusive of non-cash items and an increase of $1,080 million for accounts payable and other liabilities as we continue to expand our infrastructure and timing of payments, and higher deferred revenue from cash received from upfront payments from our aviation customers. This increase was partially offset by $449 million for higher prepaid expenses and inventory. Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $1,256 million from $4,520 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 to $5,776 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily driven by higher net income exclusive of non-cash items, partially offset by $628 million for higher inventory and prepaid expenses and other assets due to increase in our revenue and production of Starlink Kits. 5.11.5.2 Investing Activities Net cash used in investing activities increased by $12,554 million from $4,170 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $16,724 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in capital expenditures of $5,967 million related to the build out of data centers and related infrastructure, and space launch facilities and related infrastructure, as well as an increase in purchases of marketable securities of $7,489 million in the period. This increase was partially offset by an increase in cash received from product rebates of $1,195 million. Net cash used in investing activities increased by $8,779 million from $10,796 million during the year ended December 31, 2024 to $19,575 million during the year ended December 31, 2025. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in capital expenditures of $9,574 million related to the build out of data centers and related infrastructure, and space launch facilities and related infrastructure, partially offset by a net increase in cash received from marketable securities of $1,264 million. Net cash used in investing activities increased by $5,929 million from $4,867 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 to $10,796 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in capital expenditures of $6,748 million related to the build out of data centers and related infrastructure, and space launch facilities and related infrastructure, partially offset by an increase in cash received for the maturities of marketable securities of $981 million. 5.11.5.3 Financing Activities Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $6,771 million from $354 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $7,125 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in proceeds from the SpaceX Bridge Loan and other financing arrangements of $17,950 million and proceeds from sale of our capital stock of $7,420 million, partially offset by an increase in payment on existing debt obligations and debt extinguishment costs of $14,703 million from the proceeds from the SpaceX Bridge Loan as well as an increase in repurchases of our capital stock of $3,838 million following the xAI Merger. -156- .............................................. ............................................... .............................................. _______________ –


 
Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $14,520 million from $11,830 million during the year ended December 31, 2024 to $26,350 million during the year ended December 31, 2025. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in proceeds from debt and other financing arrangements for our AI segment of $16,055 million and proceeds from sale of our capital stock of $5,706 million, partially offset by an increase in repayments on debt and other financing arrangements for our AI segment of $6,781 million. Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $11,408 million from $422 million during the year ended December 31, 2023 to $11,830 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in proceeds from the sale of our capital stock of $12,327 million, partially offset by an increase in the buyback of common and preferred shares by the Company of $104 million. 5.12 Critical Accounting Estimates The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conforruity with U.S. GAAP and the Company's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and operating results require the Company's management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported. Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company's Audited Consolidated Financial Statements. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. 5.12.1 Revenue Recognition Space contract revenue is derived from fixed-price contracts related to the development and provision of launch services for the deployment of spacecraft and other payloads to their intended orbit for both commercial customers and governmental agency space programs. Connectivity contract revenue for Starshield customers is mostly derived from fixed-price contracts related to the development of a secure satellite network designed specifically for government and national security applications. The Company recognizes revenue over time when the Company's performance on the contract creates an asset with no alternative use and when the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance to date. The Company measures progress on these contracts using the cost-to-cost input method, as the Company believes this represents the most appropriate measure towards satisfaction of its performance obligation. Under the cost-to-cost input method, the Company records revenue based upon costs (such as materials and labor hours) incurred to date relative to the total estimated cost at completion. The Company's contracts recognized over time using the cost-to-cost input method are complex and require the Company to estimate the total costs to perform over the term of the contracts, as well as the measurement of progress towards completion for each performance obligation. For Space contracts, developing the estimated total cost at completion for each performance obligation requires the use of significant management judgment, including assumptions regarding launch timing, labor hours, allocation of shared costs for launch vehicles that have been identified as reusable for multiple launches, as well as expected technological changes to launch vehicles and spacecraft. For Connectivity contracts, developing the estimated total cost at completion for each performance obligation requires the use of significant management judgment, including assumptions regarding labor hours, allocation of shared costs used in the production of satellites, satellite material costs, as well as expected technological changes to satellites. Material changes in estimated contract revenue or costs at completion and the resulting changes in contract profit could have a material impact on the Company's financial condition and operating results. The impact of net adjustments from contracts recognized over time using the cost-to-cost input method to our revenue and operating income was not material for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2026. If the combined gross margins for our contracts recognized over time using the cost-to-cost input method had been estimated to be higher or lower by 1% during 2025, it would have increased or decreased operating income for the year by approximately $110 million. 5.12.2 Property, Plant, and Equipment, Net Property, plant, and equipment, net is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The Company depreciates these assets primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets except flight vehicles and spacecraft, which are depreciated over the expected number of average flights for each flight -157- m ’ ’ “ ” ’ ’ ’ ’ ty


 
vehicle and spacecraft. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the related lease term. Deterr_lining the useful lives and the number of average flights a flight vehicle and spacecraft can fly require the Company to estimate the period over which we expect to recover the economic value of our property, plant, and equipment. For each of our flight vehicle hardware and spacecraft, we consider recovery and refurbishment success rates, refurbishment economics, customer acceptance limits that may prohibit the use of vehicles that have been flown more than a certain number of launches, expected future launches included in the mission manifest, as well as any anticipated retirement timing of certain flight vehicle and spacecraft models such as Falcon as a result of anticipated transition to Starship to determine the expected number of average flights for each vehicle. For our satellites assets, we consider factors such as on-orbit performance, orbit-raise timing, expected service capability, and the evolution of constellation density and technology. When we deterr_line that the useful lives or expected remaining flights of assets are shorter or longer than we had originally estimated, we adjust the rate of depreciation to reflect the assets' revised useful lives or number of remaining flights. The Company periodically evaluates impairment of its property, plant, and equipment assets whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Factors we consider to identify indicators of potential impairment include significant changes or planned changes in our use of certain property, plant and equipment, technological developments that reduce the utility of the existing assets, declines in forecasted cash flows, and significant negative industry or economic trends. Impairr_lent is assessed at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. If estimated future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset or asset group, an impairment charge is recognized to the extent its carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value to cost of revenue or selling, general, and administrative expenses depending on the nature of the assets, or to impairment charges if the impairment is considered to be outside the normal course of business. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, and for the three months ended March 31, 2026, impairr_lents on fixed assets were not material. If the average remaining flights for our flight vehicle and spacecraft had been estimated to be five more or fewer flights, the impact to our operating income for the year ended December 31, 2025 and three months ended March 31, 2026 would not be material. If the average useful life of our satellite assets had been changed by one year, it would have an approximately $480 million and $170 million impact on our operating income for the year ended December 31, 2025 and three months ended March 31, 2026, respectively. 5.12.3 Legal and Other Contingencies The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business, the outcomes of which are inherently uncertain. The Company records a liability when it is probable a loss has been incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable, the determination of which requires significant judgment. Resolution of legal matters in a manner inconsistent with management's expectations could have a material impact on the Company's financial condition and operating results. 5.13 Recent Accounting Pronouncements Refer to Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. 5.14 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk 5.14.1 Foreign Currency Risk We considered the historical trends in foreign currency exchange rates and deterr_lined that it is reasonably possible that adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates of 10% for all currencies could be experienced in the near-term. These changes were applied to our total monetary assets and liabilities denominated in our non-functional currencies at the balance sheet date to compute the impact these changes would have had on our income (loss) before income taxes. These changes would have resulted in an immaterial gain or loss as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. -158- m m m m ’ ’ i i m


 
5.14.2 Interest Rate Risk Our cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, time deposits, money market funds, U.S. government and agency securities. Our investment policy and strategy are focused on preservation of capital and supporting our liquidity requirements. Changes in U.S. interest rates affect the interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates would have resulted in an immaterial increase or decrease in interest income for the year ended December 31, 2025 and three months ended March 31, 2026. The effective interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the SpaceX Bridge Loan was 4.58% as of March 31, 2026. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in U.S. interest rates would increase annual interest expense by approximately $200 million. -159- . t at i

Each series of preferred stock will have the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participation, optional or other rights, if any, including voting rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, if any, and the number of shares constituting the series, as deteunined by the board. Any issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of decreasing the market price of our Class A common stock. 7.2 Corporate Opportunities Under our charter, to the fullest extent peii_fitted by applicable law, we will renounce any interest or expectancy of the Company or its subsidiaries in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, certain business opportunities (as specified in our charter) that are from time to time presented to any member of the board or board observer or attendee, regardless of whether any such person is an employee of the Company and their respective affiliates (other than the Company and its subsidiaries) (together, the "Business Opportunities Exempt Party"), even if the business opportunity is one that we or our subsidiaries might reasonably be deemed to have pursued or had the ability or desire to pursue if granted the opportunity to do so, and no Business Opportunities Exempt Party shall have any duty to present any such business opportunity to us or be liable to us or any of our subsidiaries or any shareholder, including for breach of any fiduciary or other duty, as a director or officer or controlling shareholder or otherwise, and we shall indemnify each Business Opportunities Exempt Party against any claim that such person is liable to us or our shareholders for breach of any fiduciary duty, by reason of the fact that such person (i) fails to present any such business opportunity, (ii) pursues, acquires or exploits any such business opportunity, or (iii) directs, sells, assigns or transfers any such business opportunity to another person or entity, unless, in the case of a person who is our director or officer, such business opportunity is presented to, or acquired, created or developed by, or otherwise comes into the possession of, such Business Opportunities Exempt Party expressly and solely in his or her capacity as an employee, director, board observer or attendee, or shareholder of the Company. 7.3 Exclusive Forum and Venue and Arbitration, Jury Trial Waiver Our bylaws will provide that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the sole and exclusive forum for any of the filing, adjudication and trial of all disputes between (i) one or more shareholders and (ii) the Company or its directors, officers, or controlling persons, or any underwriter of securities issued by the Company (or controlling person thereof) relating to any of the following: (1) any derivative proceeding, meaning a civil dispute brought in the right of the Company; (2) any action based on the governance, governing documents, or internal affairs of the Company; (3) any action based on state or federal securities or trade regulation laws; (4) any action based on the alleged act(s) or omission(s) by a person in its capacity as a shareholder, controlling person, director, officer, or other managerial official of the Company; (5) any action based on the alleged breach(es) by one or more shareholders, controlling persons, directors, officers, or other managerial officials of a duty owed, in his or her capacity as such, to the Company or to any shareholder thereof; (6) an action seeking to hold a shareholder, controlling person, director, officer, or other managerial official of the Company liable for an obligation of the Company, other than on account of a written contract signed by the person to be held liable in a capacity other than as a shareholder or managerial official; and (7) any action arising out of the TBOC, will be the Business Court (for purposes of this summary, each, an Internal Dispute). Please see also risk factors "1.5.8 The TBOC and our charter include provisions that may limit shareholders' ability to bring a cause of action against our directors or officers for certain acts or omissions in their capacity as directors or officers of the Company, including minimum share ownership for derivative proceedings and the presumption of the business judgment rule.", "1.5.9 Our bylaws will impose minimum stock ownership and solicitation requirements on -163- . ti ’ . . rm rm i i rm “ i i ” “ rs’ f y, f j ” “


 
shareholders seeking to submit proposals for shareholder approval, which could limit the ability of our shareholders to bring matters before a meeting of shareholders." and "1.5.10 Our bylaws place restrictions on the forum, venue and procedures for legal actions or proceedings initiated by our shareholders, including certain requirements for mandatory arbitration. These provisions could limit our shareholders' ability to pursue certain claims and/or increase the cost of doing so and could also affect the procedures, rights, and remedies available to our shareholders in such legal actions or proceedings." Our bylaws will further provide that to the extent, and solely to the extent, that a court of competent jurisdiction (which is a court that possesses personal and subject matter jurisdiction) declines in a final and unappealable judgment to transfer an Internal Dispute to the Business Court (such Internal Dispute, an Other Dispute), such Other Dispute, irrespective of the amount in dispute, shall be exclusively and finally settled by arbitration before the ICC in Houston, Texas, conducted under the Expedited Procedure Provisions of the Rules (the "Arbitration Rules") of the ICC as those rules may be periodically updated. If a court declines to transfer an Internal Dispute to the Business Court, but such court is later held not to have personal or subject matter jurisdiction with respect to such Internal Dispute, the arbitration provision would not be triggered because such action would be required to be dismissed and subsequently brought in a court of competent jurisdiction. Our bylaws will provide the following for arbitration: • The tribunal will include one arbitrator for claims of $5 million or less or a panel of three arbitrators for claims exceeding $5 million, and our bylaws will specify procedures governing the selection of the panel. The ICC fees and arbitrator(s) fees will be governed by the ICC fee and arbitrator fee schedule as may apply depending on the nature and amount of the claim. • If more than three claims arising from the same or similar conduct, transaction, or occurrence are submitted to arbitration within any three-year period, all but the first-filed claim shall be stayed pending final resolution of that first-filed claim. In such circumstance, the Company and each shareholder asserting such a claim shall bear equal shares of the ICC fees and arbitrator(s) fees. However, if any shareholder party or parties are ultimately successful on all of their claims, the Company shall reimburse the successful shareholder party or parties for the ICC fees and arbitrator(s) fees paid by such shareholder party or parties. • If more than three claims are submitted by the same shareholder(s) within any three-year period, then the Company shall pay the ICC fees and arbitrator(s) fees associated with the first three claims only. However, if any shareholder party or parties are ultimately successful on all of their claims, the Company shall reimburse the successful shareholder party or parties for the ICC fees and arbitrator(s) fees paid by such shareholder party or parties. • If any claim submitted to arbitration is deterr_lined by the tribunal to be frivolous, without reasonable cause, or for an improper purpose such as bad faith or vexatious litigation, the Company shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorney's fees and costs incurred in defending against such claim, including any ICC fees and arbitrator(s) fees. • The tribunal's authority is subject to the same limits as the authority of a judge in a Texas court of law. The tribunal does not have authority to issue an award that (i) exceeds the tribunal's authority under the Texas Arbitration Act; (ii) contains a reversible error of state or federal law, including as to the admissibility of evidence, or a clearly erroneous finding of fact; or (iii) applies a cause of action or provides a remedy not expressly provided for under applicable Texas or federal law. The tribunal's application of the pleading and discovery limitations imposed by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act is mandatory for applicable claims and shall not constitute a refusal to hear evidence pertinent and/or material to the controversy under Texas or federal law. • Pursuant to the Texas Arbitration Act, the scope of judicial review of the tribunal's award includes the ordinary grounds for vacatur, modification, and correction imposed by the Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code §§ 171.088 and 171.091, and is expanded beyond what is otherwise available under the Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code to include review of whether the award: (i) contains a reversible error of state or federal law, including as to the admissibility of evidence, or a clearly erroneous finding of fact; or (ii) applies a cause of action or provides a remedy not expressly provided for applicable Texas or federal law. The arbitral tribunal's award and the findings of fact and conclusions of law shall be reviewable upon the same standards of review as if said award and supporting findings of fact and conclusions of law were entered by a Texas court. -164- f l, ” “ f u , f , f ti rs’ , , ” “ i ” m ’ l’ l’ l’ l’ l’


 
• Any action seeking to confiii_1, vacate, modify, correct, or otherwise challenge the tribunal's award shall be brought in the Business Court. In any such action, the parties shall file all court filings under seal, to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law. Our bylaws will further provide that to the extent, and solely to the extent, that a court of competent jurisdiction deteunines in a final and unappealable judgment that the requirement that Other Disputes be exclusively and finally settled by arbitration is unenforceable in whole or part, the sole and exclusive forum and venue for such Other Disputes which are deteunined not to be subject to mandatory arbitration shall be the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the Federal Court), or if a court of competent jurisdiction deteunines in a final and unappealable judgment that the Federal Court lacks jurisdiction over any such Other Dispute, the sole and exclusive forum and venue for such Other Dispute shall be the state district courts of Harris County, Texas. Our bylaws will further provide that Other Disputes will be governed either by Texas state law or federal law, depending on the claim asserted. Our bylaws will also provide that: • The Company and each shareholder, director, and officer of the Company irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in shares of stock of the Company shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally waived, any right it may have to a trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding relating to Internal Disputes described above. • Internal Disputes may not be brought as a class, or consolidated or joined, except at the Company's option. Although we believe these provisions will benefit us by providing increased consistency in the application of Texas law for the specified types of actions and proceedings, the provisions may have the effect of discouraging or increasing the costs of lawsuits against our directors, officers, other managerial officials, employees and agents. However, it is possible that, in connection with a future legal proceeding, a court could rule that all or a portion of these provisions in our bylaws purporting to require an exclusive forum for certain disputes, to waive the right to a jury trial or to require arbitration for shareholder claims are inapplicable, unconstitutional or otherwise unenforceable. 7.4 Stock Ownership Requirement for Derivative Suits Our bylaws will specify that the required ownership threshold for a shareholder or group of shareholders to institute or maintain a derivative proceeding in the right of the Company for purposes of Section 21.552(a)(3) of the TBOC will be 3% of the outstanding shares of the Company. This provision will continue to apply so long as any shares of the Company's common stock are listed for trading on a national securities exchange or the Company affiunatively elects to be governed by TBOC 21.419 and has 500 or more shareholders. 7.5 Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors Our charter will include a provision eliminating the liability of our directors and officers for monetary damages for an act or omission by the person in the person's capacity as a director or officer, respectively, except for: (i) a breach of the duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders; (ii) an act or omission not in good faith that constitutes a breach of duty of the person to the Company or involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of applicable law; (iii) a transaction from which the director or officer obtains an improper benefit, regardless of whether the benefit resulted from an action taken within the scope of the person's duties; or (iv) an act or omission for which the liability of a director or officer is expressly provided by an applicable statute (such as wrongful distributions). Our charter also will provide that if the TBOC is amended in the future to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting of the personal liability of directors and officers, the liability of directors and officers will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent peunitted by the TBOC as so amended. Any amendment, repeal or modification of these provisions will be prospective only and would not affect any limitation on liability of a director or officer for acts or omissions that occurred prior to any such amendment, repeal or modification. Our bylaws also provide that we will indemnify and advance expenses to our directors and officers to the fullest extent peunitted by the TBOC, subject to reimbursement in the event it is ultimately deteunined that -165- rm l’ rm rm rm ’ ’ rm ’ ’ rm rm rm


 
the individual was not entitled to indemnification under the TBOC or the indemnification agreement. Our bylaws also will peunit us to purchase insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee, or other agent for any liability arising out of that person's actions as our officer, director, employee or agent, regardless of whether the TBOC would peunit indemnification. We intend to enter into indemnification agreements with each of our current and future directors and officers. These agreements will require us to indemnify these individuals against liability that may arise by reason of their service to us, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. As permitted by the TBOC, because these agreements are expected to be approved by our shareholders, the agreements may require indemnification or payment of expenses in favor of the indemnitee in certain circumstances in which we would not otherwise have the power to do so under the provisions of the TBOC or our charter or bylaws. We believe that the limitation of liability provision that will be in our charter and the indemnification agreements will facilitate our ability to continue to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve as directors and officers. Our bylaws will provide that the Company affiii_latively elects to be governed by Section 21.419 of the TBOC and any successor provision thereto. Because the Company will have a class of voting common stock (our Class A common stock) listed on a national securities exchange, Section 21.419 will also be deemed to apply to the Company. Under Section 21.419 of the TBOC, in taking or declining to take any action on any matters of a corporation's business, a director or officer of the Company is presumed to act (i) in good faith, (ii) on an infolined basis, (iii) in furtherance of the interests of the Company, and (iv) in obedience to the law and the Company's governing documents. In addition, neither the Company nor any of its shareholders has a cause of action against the director or officer as a result of any act or omission in the person's capacity as such unless the claimant rebuts one or more of the foregoing presumptions and it is proven by the claimant that (A) the director's or officer's act or omission constitutes a breach of one or more of the person's duties as a director or officer and (B) the breach involved fraud, intentional misconduct, an ultra vires act or a knowing violation of law. 7.6 Protection for Conflicts of Interest Section 21.418 of the TBOC provides that, at any time a corporation's voting common stock is listed for trading on a national securities exchange, the corporation's directors and officers will not be liable to the corporation or its shareholders for claims alleging a breach of duty arising from the making, authorization, or perfounance of a contract or transaction solely because the director or officer had an interest in the transaction unless the claim would be permitted under Section 21.419 of the TBOC as described above. Because the Company will have a class of voting common stock (our Class A common stock) listed on a national securities exchange, Section 21.418 of the TBOC will be deemed to apply to the Company. 7.7 Registration Rights For a description of registration rights with respect to our Class A common stock, see "11.7.5 Investors' Rights Agreement". 7.8 Transfer Agent and Registrar The transfer agent and registrar for our Class A common stock is Fidelity Stock Transfer Solutions LL C. Its address is 245 Summer Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02210, United States, and its phone number is +1 (617) 563-5800. 7.9 Listing We have applied to list our Class A common stock on Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas under the symbol "SPCX." 7.10 Offerors In addition to the Company, the shares are being offered by the European underwriters in the European retail offering. 7.11 General Provisions Governing the Liquidation of the Company Under the TBOC, the Company will be required to wind up its business and affairs upon the occurrence of certain events, including, among others: (i) a voluntary decision to wind up the Company; (ii) the occurrence of an event requiring winding up as specified in our certificate of founation or bylaws (none currently included); -166- rm ’ rm rm ti ’ rm ’ ’ r’ r’ ’ ti ’ i ’ rm t “ t rs’ ” istr “ ” rm


 
(iii) the expiration of our period of duration, if any (none currently); or (iv) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution by a court of competent jurisdiction. Upon the occurrence of any such event, the Company will cease carrying on its ordinary business except as necessary to wind up and liquidate its business. Following the satisfaction or provision for all liabilities, the Company will distribute any remaining assets to our shareholders in accordance with their respective rights and interests. 7.12 General Provisions Governing a Change in the Share Capital The Company may issue additional authorized shares of Class A common stock, Class B common stock and Class C common stock at any time or from time to time, as authorized by its board without further shareholder approval, subject to applicable provisions of its charter, its bylaws, the TBOC and the rules of Nasdaq. The Company's charter will provide that additional shares of Class B common stock may only be issued in the future to Mr. Musk, his family members and certain entities peunitted under its charter. The Company's charter authorizes its board, subject to any limitations prescribed by applicable law and any stock exchange, without further shareholder approval, to establish and to issue from time to time one or more series of preferred stock. Each series of preferred stock will have the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participation, optional or other rights, if any, including voting rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, if any, and the number of shares constituting the series, as deteii_lined by the board. 7.13 General Provisions Governing Subscription Rights Holders of the Company's Class A common stock, Class B common stock, and Class C common stock do not have preemptive, subscription, or redemption rights. 7.14 Exclusion of Minority Shareholders The TBOC does not provide a statutory squeeze-out mechanism based solely on ownership thresholds. 7.15 Mandatory Takeover Bids No mandatory takeover bid regime applies to the Company under the TBOC. 7.16 Shareholder Notification Requirements For more infoli_lation on shareholder notification requirements applicable to the Company, please refer to "11.2.1 Major Shareholders". 7.17 Managers' Transactions A person serving as a director or officer of a corporation that has a class of equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, and shareholders who own greater than ten percent of such corporation, must file with the SEC reports with respect to their ownership of such securities. Generally, such persons must file an initial statement of ownership within ten days of becoming subject to the requirement (or, for newly public companies, when the registration statement becomes effective, if earlier) and must file reports describing any subsequent transactions in the registered securities before the end of the second business day following the date on which such transactions were executed. These requirements also apply with respect to certain derivative securities referencing the registered equity securities. Generally, such persons must also disgorge to the corporation any profit realized from any purchase and subsequent sale, or any sale and subsequent purchase, of the corporation's equity securities within any period of less than six months, irrespective of such person's intent. Short-swing profits are recoverable by, and inure to the benefit of, the corporation, and if the corporation fails or refuses to pursue recovery, a security holder of the corporation may institute an action on behalf of the corporation. In this context, an "officer" of a corporation means a president, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer (or, if there is no such accounting officer, the controller), any vice-president of the issuer in charge of a principal business unit, division or function (such as sales, administration or finance), any other officer who perfoiins a policy-making function, or any other person who perfoiins similar policy-making functions for the corporation. "Policy-making function" does not include policy-making functions that are not significant. -167- ’ rm ’ rm ’ rm “ ” ’ i ’ ’ “ ” rm rm “ ”


 
7.18 Short Selling Regulation (Ban on Naked Short Selling) Pursuant to Regulation (EU) No. 236/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of March 14, 2012, on short selling and certain aspects of credit default swaps, as amended (the "Short Selling Regulation"), the European Commission's delegated regulation for the purposes of detailing the Short Selling Regulation and the Geunan EU Short Selling Implementation Act (EU-Leerverkaufs-Ausfiihrungsgesetz) of November 15, 2012, the short selling of a company's shares is only peunitted under certain conditions. In that context, "short selling" refers to the sale of shares that the seller does not own, with the intention of acquiring shares of the same class at a later point in time in order to be able to deliver the shares to the buyer. In addition, under the provisions of the Short Selling Regulation, significant net-short selling positions in a company's shares must be reported to Bafin and publicly disclosed if they exceed a specific percentage. The details on the reporting and publication process are set forth in the German Regulation on Net-Short Positions (Netto-Leerverkaufspositionsverordnung) of December 17, 2012. The net short selling positions are calculated by offsetting the short positions of a natural person or legal entity in the company's shares with its long positions in such shares. The details are regulated in the Short Selling Regulation and the other regulations the European Commission enacted on short selling. In certain situations, described in the Short Selling Regulation, Bafin is permitted to restrict short selling and comparable transactions. 7.19 Taxation 7.19.1 Taxation Warning Prospective investors should be warned that the tax legislation of their country of citizenship, domicile or residency and the tax legislation of the Company's country of incorporation (Le., the United States) may have an impact on the income received from the shares. Prospective investors are strongly recommended to consult their own tax advisers. 7.19.2 Taxation Considerations for Certain Investors and Jurisdictions The following sections outline certain key tax principles that may be relevant with respect to the acquisition, holding or transfer of the shares for private individuals as investors in their jurisdiction of tax residence. Each section solely addresses the jurisdiction to which the relevant section relates. For the avoidance of doubt, this summary does not cover any tax consequences for investors under the tax laws and regulations of the United States. It is important to note that the legal situation may change, possibly with retroactive effect. This summary is not and does not purport to be a comprehensive or exhaustive description of all tax considerations that may be relevant to prospective investors, who may be subject to special tax treatment under any applicable law. In particular, this summary does not cover tax considerations for, nor intends to be applicable in respect of all types of prospective investors. This section is based upon the relevant domestic tax laws in effect as of the date of this Prospectus and the provisions of double taxation treaties currently in force in the relevant jurisdictions. We cannot rule out that the tax authorities or courts will apply or interpret these laws and provisions differently than what is described in this summary. This summary is intended as general information only and cannot replace the need for individual investors to seek personal tax advice. It is therefore recommended that investors consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax implications of acquiring, holding or transferring the shares. 7.19.2.1 Material Taxation Considerations for German Private Individuals The following section outlines certain key Geunan tax principles that may be relevant to individuals with a tax residency through their domicile or habitual abode in Geunany and holding and having held (directly or indirectly or through a legal predecessor) less than 1% of the share capital of the Company as non-business assets (Privatvermogen) ("German Private Individual Shareholders") with respect to the acquisition, holding or transfer of the shares. This summary does not cover all tax considerations potentially relevant to such shareholders but is strictly limited to the Geunan income tax (Einkommensteuer) treatment of income from the shares. 7.19.2.1.1 Taxation of Dividend Income Dividends received by Geunan Private Individual Shareholders are, as a general rule, taxed as capital investment income (Einkunfte aus Kapitalvermogen). -168- “ ” i ’ rm f ü ’ rm “ ” ’ iti r ’ ar ’ i. fro f is f ll i , f i j i i j i i , f , ti ti ti , f , , ti f j i i ti f . f i rm rm i ö “ ” rm t rm ü ö


 
If the shares are held in a custodial account with a Geunan resident credit institution, financial services institution (inlandisches Kredit- oder Finanzdienstleistungsinstitut) (including in each case a Geunan branch of such foreign institution) or securities institution (inlandisches Wertpapierinstitut) (the "German Disbursing Agent") (inlandische auszahlende Stelle), the Geunan Disbursing Agent generally withholds Geunan tax at a rate of 25% (plus 5.5% solidarity surcharge thereon and, if applicable, church tax) on the gross amount of the dividends paid by the Company. The Gelman Private Individual Shareholder's personal income tax liability with respect to dividends is generally satisfied through the withholding (overall the "flat tax regime", Abgeltungsteuer). German Private Individual Shareholders may provide to the Geunan Disbursing Agent either a non- assessment certificate (Nichtveranlagungsbescheinigung) issued by their competent local tax office or an exemption declaration (Freistellungsauftrag) in the maximum amount of the annual saver's allowance (Sparer- Pauschbetrag) of EUR 1,000 (or for individuals filing jointly EUR 2,000). To the extent withholding tax has not been levied, such as in the case of the shares kept in a custody account maintained by a non-Gelman resident custodian, the Gelman Private Individual Shareholders must report their income derived from the shares on their tax return and then will also be taxed at a rate of 25% (plus solidarity surcharge and church tax thereon, where applicable). The individual shareholder is taxed on his or her aggregate capital investment income, less the annual saver's allowance of EUR 1,000 (or, for individuals filing jointly, EUR 2,000). Income-related expenses are not tax-deductible. Private investors can apply to have their capital investment income assessed in accordance with the general rules on detelinining the individual tax rate of the shareholder if this results in a lower tax, but even in this case, income-related expenses are not tax-deductible. However, in this case, the solidarity surcharge would be refunded. If no Geunan withholding tax was levied or the German Private Individual Shareholder applies to have the capital investment income assessed based on the individual tax rate, U.S. withholding tax withheld on the dividends paid by the Company can (to the extent of the applicable treaty rate) generally be credited against the German tax liability on the Company's dividends received by the Gelman Private Individual Shareholder subject to certain requirements. If Gelman withholding tax is levied, the Gelman Disbursing Agent must reduce the amount of the Gelman withholding tax by the amount of tax withheld in the U.S. in accordance with the aforementioned credit rules, in particular the reduction of the withholding cannot exceed the applicable treaty rate. The Geunan Federal Central Tax Office (Bundeszentralamt fur Steuern) publishes the treaty rates to be applied by the Gelman Disbursing Agents on an annual basis. The currently applicable double tax treaty between Geunany and the U.S. does not provide for a reduction of U.S. withholding tax on dividends for individuals below 15% and this is also reflected in the respective guidelines. German Private Individual Shareholders may be liable for church tax, which is generally deducted by way of withholding by the Gelman Disbursing Agent, unless the shareholder has filed a blocking notice (Sperrvermerk) with the Geunan Federal Central Tax Office. If church tax is withheld and remitted to the tax authority as part of the withholding tax deduction, the church tax on the dividends is also deemed to be discharged when it is deducted. Since the church tax is already deducted as a special expense (Sonderausgabe) in the course of the withholding tax deduction, the withheld church tax cannot be deducted in the tax assessment as a special expense. If no church taxes are withheld along with the withholding of the withholding tax, the shareholder who owes church tax is required to report their dividends in their income tax return. The church tax on the dividends will then be imposed by way of a tax assessment. Dividends sourced from a tax contribution account (steuerliches Einlagekonto) are generally not taxable and, therefore, not subject to Gelman withholding tax or income tax (including solidarity surcharge and church tax, if applicable). Non-Geunan tax resident corporations can also maintain a tax contribution account for German tax purposes if they apply for a special assessment procedure with the Gelman Federal Central Tax Office and subject to further prerequisites. Dividend payments sourced from a tax contribution account in accordance with the statutory requirements (a "Return of Capital") reduce the shareholder's acquisition costs of the shares. If the Return of Capital exceeds the shareholder's acquisition costs, the Gelman tax authorities take the view that negative acquisition costs will arise. Both can result in a higher capital gain in case of the shares' disposal (please refer to "7.19.2.1.2 Taxation of Capital Gains" below). 7.19.2.1.2 Taxation of Capital Gains Capital gains from the disposal of the shares by a Geunan Private Individual Shareholder are generally subject to the flat tax regime. Losses from the sale of the shares can only be used to offset capital gains from the -169- rm ä rm ä ert “ ” ä rm rm r l er’ “ ” rm r’ r r r’ rm rm ’ r r r r rm t fü r rm r rm r rm r “ ” l r’ r’ r ’ “ ” rm


 
disposal of shares in stock corporations during the same year or in subsequent years. The amount of the taxable capital gain from the sale is the difference between (i) the proceeds from the sale and (ii) the cost of acquisition of the shares and the expenses directly related to the sale. Other expenses may not be deducted from capital gains. A Return of Capital which is officially certified by the Geunan Federal Central Tax Office reduces the original acquisition costs; if the Return of Capital exceeds the acquisition costs, negative acquisition costs — which can increase a capital gain — can arise. If the shares are deposited with or administered by a Geunan Disbursing Agent, the tax on the capital gains is generally settled by way of withholding through the Geunan Disbursing Agent which is required to deduct a withholding tax of 25% (plus 5.5% solidarity surcharge thereon and, if applicable, church tax), of the capital gains from the sale proceeds and remit it to the tax authority. To the extent withholding tax has not been levied, such as in the case of the shares kept in a custodial account not maintained by a German Disbursing Agent, the German Private Individual Shareholder must report their income derived from the shares on their tax return and then will also be taxed at a rate of 25% (plus 5.5% solidarity surcharge thereon and, if applicable, church tax). 7.19.2.2 Material Taxation Considerations for Dutch Private Individuals The following section outlines a general summary of certain material Dutch personal income tax consequences in connection with the acquisition, holding and disposal of Class A common stock by an individual who is resident or deemed to be resident in the Netherlands for purposes of Dutch taxation (a "Dutch Individual Shareholder") and: • who does not derive profits from an enterprise or deemed enterprise, whether as an entrepreneur (ondernemer) or pursuant to a co-entitlement to the net worth of such enterprise (other than as an entrepreneur or a shareholder), to which enterprise the shares of Class A common stock are attributable or deemed to be attributable; • for whom the shares of Class A common stock, or any benefit derived therefrom, is not a remuneration or deemed to be a remuneration for a membership of a management board or a supervisory board or for (deemed) employment activities performed by such holder or certain individuals related to such holder (as defined in the Dutch Income Tax Act (Wet inkomstenbelasting 2001)); • who does not derive income or capital gains from the shares of Class A common stock, as the case may be, that are taxable as benefits from `miscellaneous activities' (resultaat uit overige werkzaamheden, as defined in the Dutch Income Tax Act), which include the perfounance of activities with respect to the shares, that exceed regular, active portfolio management (normaal, actief vermogensbeheer) and also include benefits resulting from a lucrative interest (lucratief belang); or • who does not have a Substantial Interest (as defined below) or deemed Substantial Interest in the Company. Generally, a Dutch Individual Shareholder will have a substantial interest (aanmerkelijk belang) in the Company if such holder holds, alone or, together with his/her partner (statutorily defined teen in Dutch tax law), whether directly or indirectly, the ownership of, or certain rights over, shares representing 5% or more of the total issued and outstanding capital (or the issued and outstanding capital of any class of shares, such as Class A common stock) of the Company, or rights to acquire shares, whether or not already issued, that represent 5% or more of our total issued and outstanding capital (or the issued and outstanding capital of any class of shares), or the ownership of certain profit participating certificates that relate to 5% or more of the Company's annual profit, and/or 5% of the proceeds upon liquidation of the Company ("Substantial Interest"). A Dutch Individual Shareholder will also have a Substantial Interest if one of certain relatives of that holder or of his/her partner has a Substantial Interest in the Company. If a Dutch Individual Shareholder does not have a Substantial Interest, a deemed Substantial Interest (fictief aanmerkelijk belang) will be present if (part of) a Substantial Interest has been disposed of, or is deemed to have been disposed of, without recognising a taxable gain. For Dutch tax purposes, a holder of Class A common stock may include an individual who does not have the legal title to shares of Class A common stock, but to whom nevertheless such shares or the income therefrom are attributed based on specific statutory provisions or on the basis of such individual having a(n) (beneficial) interest in shares of Class A common stock or the income therefrom. -170- rm – – rm rm . f i “ ” t l ‘ ’ rm l, rm ’ “ ”


 
Where this summary refers to the Netherlands or Dutch law it only refers to the part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands located in Europe and its law, respectively. 7.19.2.2.1 Taxation of Dividend Income and Capital Gains A Dutch Individual Shareholder will with respect to shares of Class A common stock generally be subject to Dutch personal income tax on a deemed return pursuant to the regime for income from savings and investments, regardless of the actual income (including dividends received on the Class A common stock) and/or capital gains derived from the shares of Class A common stock. As of January 1, 2023, transitional legislation applies to deteu rine the income from savings and investments based on a deemed return, until a new system will be implemented based on the actual return (envisaged to enter into force as of 2028). Under this transitional regime, the taxable income from savings and investments is calculated by applying the individual's deemed return percentage (effectieve rendementspercentage) to the individual's yield basis (rendementsgrondslag) to the extent it exceeds the applicable personal threshold (heffingvrij vermogen) (grondslag sparen en beleggen). The individual's deemed return percentage is calculated on the basis of the actual composition of the individual's yield basis on 1 January of the relevant year (subject to certain rules against reference date arbitration; peildatumarbitrage), with separate (periodically announced) deemed return percentages applying for bank deposits (banktegoeden — estimated at 1.28% for 2026), other investments (such as shares of Class A common stock; overige bezittingen — 6.00% for 2026) and debts (schulden — estimated at 2.70% for 2026). The aforementioned deemed return percentages for bank deposits and debts are preliminary and will be confirmed at a later stage. The taxable income from savings and investments will be taxed at a rate of 36% (the rate for 2026). However, on June 6, 2024, June 14, 2024, August 2, 2024 and December 20, 2024, the Dutch Supreme Court ruled in a number of cases that the application of the aforementioned transitional regime violates the principle of non-discrimination and the fundamental right to property, if and to the extent the deemed return applicable to the savings and investments of a taxpayer exceeds such taxpayer's actual return in the respective calendar year. In response to these rulings, legislation entered into force on July 19, 2025, introducing a rebuttal scheme intended to reflect the Dutch Supreme Court's guidance. The provisions of the legislation generally apply retroactively from January 1, 2017. Under the scheme, taxpayers may rebut the applicable deemed return if the actual return (determined in accordance with the specific rules set out in the aforementioned legislation) in a certain year is lower. For the purposes of this scheme, any increase in the value of the taxpayer's assets, including unrealised capital gains, is treated as part of the realised yield. To invoke the rebuttal provision, taxpayers must complete and submit a form made available by the Dutch tax authorities. Where the rebuttal succeeds, only the taxpayer's actual return for the relevant year is subject to tax under the savings and investment regime. This rebuttal scheme is intended as a temporary measure pending the introduction of a new system for taxing savings and investments on the basis of actual returns. The legislative proposal for taxing savings and investments on the basis of actual returns was adopted by the Lower Chamber of the Dutch Parliament on February 12, 2026, with an intended effective date of January 1, 2028. However, the Under-Minister for Finance has indicated that certain amendments to the legislative proposal will still be made before it proceeds to the Upper Chamber of the Dutch Parliament, and accordingly both the final legislative framework and whether the intended effective date of January 1, 2028 will be met are not yet clear. Dutch Individual Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors as to the application of this rebuttal scheme to their specific situations. 7.19.2.3 Material Taxation Considerations for Swedish Private Individuals The following section outlines certain key Swedish tax principles that may be relevant to individuals resident in Sweden for tax purposes ("Swedish Private Individual Shareholders") with respect to the acquisition, holding or transfer of shares. This summary does not cover all tax considerations potentially relevant to such shareholders but is strictly limited to the high-level Swedish income tax treatment of income from the shares. 7.19.2.3.1 Taxation of Dividend Income Dividends received on the shares by Swedish Private Individual Shareholders are, as a general rule, taxable as capital income (kapitalinkomst) at a flat rate of 30%. For Swedish Private Individual Shareholders, a preliminary tax of 30% is generally withheld by the Swedish nominee in respect of nominee-registered shares. If any foreign withholding tax has been levied on a dividend distribution on the shares, a Swedish Private Individual Shareholder would generally be entitled to a tax credit in Sweden in respect of such foreign tax. -171- rm l’ l’ l’ l’ – – – r’ rt’ r’ r’ . f i “ ” li


 
7.19.2.3.2 Taxation of Capital Gains Capital gains from the disposal or redemption of the shares by a Swedish Private Individual Shareholder are generally taxable as capital income at a flat rate of 30%. Further, a capital gain on the shares in a liquidation of the Company would also generally be taxable as capital income at a flat rate of 30% for a Swedish Private Individual Shareholder. The capital gain (or loss) is noil_'ally calculated as the difference between the proceeds received, after deducting transaction costs, and the tax basis. The tax basis for all shares of the same class and type is calculated together in accordance with the "average cost method". Alternatively, the tax basis may be detelinined as 20% of the proceeds, after deducting transaction costs, under a notional rule. Capital losses on listed shares are fully deductible against taxable capital gains on shares and on other listed equity-related securities, with the exception of units in securities funds or special funds that consist solely of Swedish receivables (rantefonder). Capital losses on listed shares and other equity-related securities which cannot be set off in this way can be deducted with up to 70% against other capital income. If there is a net loss in the capital income category, a tax reduction is allowed against municipal and national income tax, as well as against real estate tax and municipal real estate charges. A tax reduction is allowed with 30% on the portion of such net loss that does not exceed SEK 100,000 and with 21% on any remaining loss. Such net loss cannot be carried forward to future income years. If any foreign withholding tax has been levied in connection with the disposal of the shares, a Swedish Private Individual Shareholder would generally be entitled to a tax credit in Sweden in respect of such foreign tax. 7.19.2.3.3 Taxation of shares held through an investment savings account If the shares are held by a Swedish Private Individual Shareholder through an investment savings account (investeringssparkonto), dividends and capital gains on the shares would not be taxable. Instead and in short, a standardized tax will be levied on a yearly basis based on any capital held in the account exceeding SEK 300,000. If any foreign withholding tax has been levied in connection with a dividend distribution or a disposal of the shares, a tax credit in Sweden in respect of such foreign tax should, subject to certain limitations, generally be available against the Swedish standardized tax levied on a holding in an investment savings account. 7.19.2.4 Material Taxation Considerations for Danish Private Individuals The following section outlines certain key Danish tax principles that may be relevant to individuals who are fully tax resident in Denmark and who do not hold the shares in connection with a business activity ("Danish Private Individual Shareholders"), in relation to the acquisition, holding or transfer of the shares. This summary does not cover all relevant tax considerations but is limited to the high-level Danish tax treatment of income from the shares. 7.19.2.4.1 Taxation of Dividend Income Dividends received by Danish Private Individual Shareholders are, as a general rule, taxed as share income (aktieindkomst). For the income year 2026, share income is taxed at a rate of 27% on amounts up to DKK 79,400 (for cohabiting spouses, a total of DKK 158,800) and at a rate of 42% on share income exceeding such thresholds. These thresholds are subject to annual adjustment and encompass all share income (i.e. all capital gains and dividends derived by the individual, or cohabiting spouses, as applicable). If the shares are held in custody with a Danish financial institution, such institution is generally obliged to report the dividend to the Danish Tax Agency. However, the Danish Private Individual Shareholder remains responsible for ensuring that the reported amount is correct. If the shares are held in custody with a foreign, non- Danish financial institution, the Danish Private Individual Shareholder is generally obliged to self-report dividends received and to pay any Danish tax due at year-end as well as market value of the shares held at year-end. If non-Danish withholding tax has been levied on dividends, the Danish Private Individual Shareholder may, under certain conditions, be entitled to a credit pursuant to section 33 of the Danish Tax Assessment Act (Ligningsloven) or an applicable tax treaty. The credit generally equals the foreign tax paid but cannot exceed the proportionate share of the Danish tax attributable to the foreign income. Where a double tax treaty applies, the -172- rm “ ” rm ä t . f i “ ”


 
credit cannot exceed the amount of tax that the foreign state is unconditionally entitled to levy under the treaty. The credit for U.S. withholding tax on dividends is generally limited to 15% of the gross dividend. The Danish Private Individual Shareholder is responsible for claiming the credit. 7.19.2.4.2 Taxation of Capital Gains For the income year 2026, capital gains from the sale of shares are taxed as share income at a rate of 27% up to DKK 79,400 (for cohabiting spouses, a total of DKK 158,800) and a rate of 42% on share income exceeding such thresholds. Such thresholds are subject to annual adjustments and include all share income (i.e. all capital gains and dividends derived by the individual, or cohabiting spouses, as applicable). Gains and losses on the sale of shares admitted to trading on a regulated market are calculated as the difference between the purchase price and the sales price. The purchase price is generally determined using the average method, meaning each share is considered acquired at a price equivalent to the average acquisition price of all the shareholder's shares in the issuing company. Losses on the sale of shares admitted to trading on a regulated market or on a multilateral trading facility can only be offset against other share income derived from shares admitted to trading on a regulated market or on a multilateral trading facility. Excess losses may be offset against a cohabiting spouse's share income of the same category. Any remaining losses may be carried forward indefinitely and offset against future share income of the same category. Losses on shares admitted to trading on a regulated market or on a multilateral trading facility can only be set off against other share income derived from other shares admitted to trading on a regulated market or on a multilateral trading facility if the Danish Tax Agency has received certain information concerning the ownership of the shares before expiry of the tax return filing deadline (typically 1 July of the year following the acquisition of the shares) for the income year in which the shares were acquired. This information is generally provided to the Danish Tax Agency by the financial institution in which the shares are held, if the financial institution is resident in Denmark. If the shares are held in custody with a Danish financial institution, such institution is generally obliged to report the sale of shares to the Danish Tax Agency. However, the Danish Private Individual Shareholder remains responsible for ensuring that the reported amount is correct. If the shares are held in custody with a foreign, non- Danish financial institution, the Danish Private Individual Shareholder is generally obliged to self-report the sale of shares and pay any Danish tax due at year-end, as well as market value of the shares held at year-end. 7.19.2.4.3 Shares held on a share savings account (Aktiesparekonto) or through a pension scheme Gains and losses on shares placed on a share savings account (Aktiesparekonto) are taxed on a mark-to- market basis. Gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the market value of the assets in the account at the beginning (1 January) and the end (31 December) of the income year, adjusted for deposits and withdrawals. The tax base is taxed at a flat rate of 17% and any loss may be carried forward. For the income year 2026, the maximum aggregate value of deposits that may be held on a share savings account is DKK 174,200. This limit applies only to deposits, as shares already placed on the account may remain regardless of any subsequent increase in value beyond the deposit limit. Taxation on a share savings account accrues annually irrespective of whether shares have been disposed of or gains or losses realised. If the shares owned are acquired and realised in the same income year, the taxable income equals the difference between the acquisition sum and the realisation sum. If the shares are acquired in the income year and not realised in the same income year, the taxable income equals the difference between the acquisition sum and the value at year-end. Gains on the share savings account may not be set off against losses incurred outside the share savings account, and vice versa. The return on the account is treated independently of any share savings account held by a cohabiting spouse. Gains and losses on shares held through pension fund schemes (Pensionsdepot) are taxed on a mark-to- market basis. Gains and losses are calculated annually as the difference between the market value of the shareholding at the beginning and end of the income year, adjusted for shares sold and purchased during the income year. Dividends are included in the taxable income in the year in which dividends are declared by the -173- l r’ ti ti


 
distributing company. Gains and losses on shares and dividends within a pension fund scheme are taxed at a flat rate of 15.3%. The specific (Danish) bank, pension institution or similar provider, in which the pension scheme or share savings account is held calculates and settles the applicable taxes together with any taxes relating to other shares held within the same pension fund scheme or share savings account. 7.19.2.5 Material Taxation Considerations for French Private Individuals The following summary outlines certain French tax consequences in connection with the ownership and disposal of the shares by individual shareholders. For the purpose of this summary, the tem' "French Individual" means an individual who (i) is domiciled and is resident of France for tax purposes, (ii) is subject to personal income tax in France (impot sur le revenue), (iii) does not carry out stock market transactions under conditions similar to those characterising a professional trading activity, (iv) owns the shares as part of the individual's private portfolio and does not hold the shares through (a) a fixed base located outside of France or (b) an enterprise that carries out an industrial, commercial, fanning or other professional activity and (v) does not hold and has not acquired the shares through a company savings plan (plan d'epargne d'entreprise), a group savings plan (plan d'epargne de groupe), a share savings plan (plan d'epargne en actions) or as part of an employee incentive scheme (e.g., free shares, restricted share units, shares acquired upon the exercise of stock options etc.). This summary does not purport to be comprehensive. In particular, it does not take into account the specific circumstances of particular investors some of whom may be subject to special tax rules and is strictly limited to the French personal income tax. 7.19.2.5.1 Taxation of Dividend Income The gross amount of dividend payments received by a French Individual will generally be subject to a 31.4% flat tax (unless the option for the standard progressive rate is exercised). Such flat tax is composed of (i) personal income tax at a 12.8% rate, and (ii) social levies at an overall rate of 18.6%. The personal income tax component of this flat tax is subject to a two-step collection procedure: (i) first, the non-discharging tax levy of 12.8%, then (ii) final taxation the following year, settled as part of the tax return filed for personal income tax purposes. The non-discharging levy of 12.8% is withheld by the paying agent, if it is located in France. When the paying agent is located outside of France, the income is declared and the corresponding levy is paid within the first 15 days of the month following the month in which the income is paid, either by the taxpayer or by the paying agent if it is established in a member State of the European Union or in another State party to the agreement on the EEA that has concluded an administrative assistance agreement with France to fight against tax fraud and tax evasion (namely, Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein), and has been mandated for this purpose by the taxpayer. This levy does not release the French Individual from personal income tax but it can be offset against the income tax due for the year in which it is levied, and any excess payment is refundable. In this respect, the gross amount of the dividends will be subject to personal income tax either (i) at a flat rate of 12.8%, or (ii) if expressly, globally, irrevocably and annually elected, at the progressive income tax rate scale (with a top marginal tax rate of 45%). In the latter case, the gross amount of the dividends is taken into account after application of a 40% rebate to it. Provided that the U.S. - France tax treaty applies, under its Article 24, 1, a), any withholding tax levied in the U.S. on dividends will not be deductible from the French taxable income of the French Individual. However, France could grant a tax credit in respect of such withholding tax, the amount of which should correspond to the amount of the U.S. withholding tax, capped at the amount of the French personal income tax assessed on the dividends. The gross amount of the dividends will also be included in the French Individual's reference fiscal income, which may be subject to the exceptional contribution on high income (contribution exceptionnelle sur les hauts revenus) at a rate of 3% or 4%, as well as to the differential contribution on high income (contribution differentielle sur les hauts revenus), as applicable. In addition, the gross amount of the distributed income (before application of any rebate) will be subject to social levies at an overall rate of 18.6%. If the dividends are subject to income tax at the abovementioned 12.8% flat rate, none of these social levies are deductible from the taxable income. If the French Individual elected for -174- . f i rm “ ” ô l’ rm ’é ’ ’é ’é l’ é


 
the taxation based on the progressive income tax rate scale, only the general social contribution (contribution sociale generalisee) will be partially deductible, in the amount of 6.8%, from the taxable income of the year during which it is paid. These social levies are withheld and collected in the same way as the 12.8% non-discharging tax levy described above. 7.19.2.5.2 Taxation of Capital Gains Capital gains realized upon the disposal of the shares will be subject to (i) income tax at a flat rate of 12.8%, without any rebate and (ii) social levies at a global 18.6% rate (as described above for the dividends). However, French Individuals may elect expressly, globally, irrevocably and annually before the deadline for filing their income tax return for the year in question, that such net capital gains be taken into account for the purposes of deteunining the overall net income subject to the progressive income tax rate scale. Capital losses incurred in a given year may be offset against capital gains of the same kind realized during that year and during the ten following years. The capital gains are also included in the French Individual's reference fiscal income, which may be subject to the exceptional contribution on high income at a rate of 3% or 4%, as well as to the differential contribution on high income. Pursuant to paragraph 6 of Article 13 of the U.S. — France tax treaty, capital gains realized upon the disposal of the shares by French Individuals should not be taxable in the U.S. 7.19.2.5.3 Transfer Taxes Pursuant to Articles 718 and 726 of the French tax code, no French transfer, stamp or registration taxes, are payable by or on behalf of an investor by reason only of the purchase, ownership or disposal of the Shares, provided that no written agreement formalizing the transfer of the Shares is executed in France. Where applicable (i.e., if a deed is executed in France), a 0.1% transfer tax assessed on the higher of the sale price of the shares or their fair market value will apply. 7.19.2.6 Material Taxation Considerations for Spanish Private Individuals The following section outlines certain key Spanish tax principles that may be relevant to individuals which are tax residency in Spain with respect to the acquisition, holding or transfer of shares. This summary does not cover all tax considerations potentially relevant to such shareholders but is strictly limited to Spanish income tax treatment of income from the shares. This description does not consider the regulations adopted by the different Spanish Autonomous Regions (Comunidades Autonomas) that may apply to investors regarding particular taxes or the regional tax regimes in force applicable in the Historical Territories of the Basque Country and the Historical Autonomous Region of Navarre (that is, the Concierto and the Convenio Economico, respectively). 7.19.2.6.1 Capital Income Pursuant to article 25 of the PIT Law, capital income shall be considered to include dividends, considerations paid for attending at general meetings of shareholders, income from the creation or assignment of rights of use or enjoyment of the shares and, in general, the participation in the Company's profits, and any other income received by a Spanish tax resident individual from the entity in his or her position as shareholder of the Company. Administration and custody expenses shall be deducted from capital income obtained by the shareholder as a result of ownership of the shares. However, discretionary or individualised portfolio management expenses shall not be offset against capital income. The amount net of administration and custody expenses shall be included in the savings taxable base of the year in which it is due. At the date of this Prospectus, the savings taxable base is taxed at the fixed rate of 19% (for the first €6,000 of capital income obtained by the individual), 21% (for income of between €6,000.01 and €50,000), 23% (for income of between €50,000.01 and €200,000), 27% (for income of between €200,000.01 and €300,000) and 30% (for income exceeding €300,000). The Company should not have any obligation to apply Spanish withholding tax on capital income paid to shareholders who are individuals with tax residency in Spain. Nevertheless, Spanish withholding tax at the applicable rate (currently 19%) may have to be deducted by other entities (such as depositaries or financial entities), provided that such entities are resident for tax purposes in Spain or have a peimanent establishment in the Spanish territory. The amounts withheld, if any, may be credited by the relevant investors against its final PIT liability. -175- é é é rm l’ – . f i ó ó ’ r


 
In addition, any withholding tax levied in the US could be credited subject to certain limitations against the Spanish PIT, thus, reducing the effective tax rate to be paid in Spain. 7.19.2.6.2 Capital Gains and Losses Gains or losses generated by a Spanish tax resident individual as a result of the transfer of the shares qualify for the purposes of the PIT Law as capital gains or losses and are subject to taxation according to the general rules applicable to capital gains. The amount of capital gains or losses shall be calculated as the negative or positive difference between the acquisition value of the securities and their transfer value, determined by: (i) the listed value of the shares as of the transfer date; or (ii) the agreed transfer price, when this exceeds the listed value of the shares. Where the PIT taxpayer owns other securities of the same kind, the acquisition price of the transferred shares is based on the principle that those acquired first are sold first (FIFO). Both the acquisition and transfer values are increased or reduced, respectively, by the costs and taxes inherent to such transactions borne by the acquirer or transferor, respectively. Capital gains or losses derived from the transfer of the shares shall be included and offset in the savings taxable base of the tax period in which the transfer takes place, being taxed as at the same tax rates described in the above section "7.19.2.6.1 Capital Income". Capital gains derived from transfer of the shares are not subject to withholding tax on account of PIT. Finally, certain losses derived from the transfer of the shares will not be treated as capital losses when identical securities are acquired during the two months prior or subsequent to the transfer date which originated that loss. In such cases, capital losses shall be included in the taxable base upon the transfer of the remaining shares of the taxpayer. 7./9.2. 7 Material Taxation Considerations for Swiss Private Individuals The following section outlines certain key Swiss tax principles that may be relevant to individuals with a tax residency through their domicile or habitual abode in Switzerland and holding the shares as non-business assets ("Swiss Private Individual Shareholders") with respect to the acquisition, holding or transfer of the shares. This summary does not cover all tax considerations potentially relevant to such shareholders but is strictly limited to the Swiss income tax treatment on a federal, cantonal and communal level of income from the shares. Swiss-resident individuals who, for Swiss income tax purposes, are classified as "professional securities dealers" for reasons of, inter alia, frequent dealings or leveraged transactions in securities are holding their shares as business assets and are therefore not considered as Swiss Private Individual Shareholders. 7.19.2.7.1 Taxation of Dividend Income Swiss Private Individual Shareholders who receive dividends and similar cash or in-kind distributions (including liquidation proceeds), which are not repayments of the par value or permissible repayment of qualifying additional paid in capital (reserves from capital contributions (Reserven aus Kapitaleinlagen) of the Company), are required to report such receipts in their individual income tax returns and are subject to Swiss federal, cantonal and communal income tax on any net taxable income for the relevant tax period. 7.19.2.7.2 Taxation of Capital Gains A gain or a loss by Swiss Private Individual Shareholder realized upon the sale or other disposition of the shares to a third party will generally be a tax-free private capital gain or a not tax-deductible capital loss, as the case may be. 7./9.2.8 Material Taxation Considerations for Norwegian Private Individuals The following section outlines certain key Norwegian tax principles with respect to the acquisition, holding or transfer of shares that may be relevant to private individuals who are tax resident in Norway and who hold the shares directly, i.e. not corporate shareholders, including holding companies of private individuals. This summary does not cover all tax considerations potentially relevant to such shareholders but is strictly limited to the Norwegian income tax treatment of income from the shares. Net wealth tax considerations have thus not been described. -176- “ ” .1 f i “ ” “ ” .1 f i


 
7.19.2.8.1 Taxation of Dividend Income Dividends distributed to Norwegian private individual shareholders are taxable under the "shareholder model". According to the shareholder model, dividends distributed to private individual shareholders are multiplied with a factor of 1.72 before taken to taxation at the ordinary income rate of 22% (resulting in an effective tax rate of 37.84%) to the extent the dividend exceeds a basic tax-free allowance. The tax-free allowance shall be computed for each individual shareholder on the basis of the cost price of each of the shares multiplied by a risk-free interest rate. The risk-free interest rate will be calculated every income year and is allocated to the shareholder owning the share on December 31 of the relevant income year. Any part of the calculated tax-free allowance in one year exceeding the dividend distributed on the share ("unused allowance") may be carried forward and set off against future dividends received on (or gains upon realization of, see "7.19.2.8.2 Taxation of Capital Gains and Losses" below) the same share. Any unused allowance will also be added to the basis of computation of the tax-free allowance on the same share the following year. The Shares will not qualify for Norwegian share saving accounts (aksjesparekonto) since the Company is resident outside the EEA for tax purposes. U.S. withholding tax withheld on the dividends paid by the Company can (to the extent of the applicable treaty rate) generally be credited against the Norwegian tax liability on the Company's dividends received by the Norwegian private individuals subject to certain requirements. 7.19.2.8.2 Taxation of Capital Gains and Losses Sale, redemption or other disposal of shares is considered as a realization for Norwegian tax purposes. Norwegian private individual shareholders are taxable in Norway for capital gains on the realization of shares, and have a corresponding right to deduct losses. This applies irrespective of how long the shares have been owned by the individual shareholder and irrespective of how many shares that are realized. Gains are taxable as ordinary income in the year of realization, and losses can be deducted from ordinary income in the year of realization. Any gains or losses are also multiplied with a factor of 1.72 before taken to taxation at the tax rate for ordinary income of 22% (resulting in an effective tax rate of 37.84%). Under current tax rules, gain or loss is calculated per share, as the difference between the consideration received and the tax value of the share. The tax value of each share is based on the individual shareholder's purchase price for the share. Costs incurred in connection with the acquisition or realization of the shares may be deducted in the year of sale. Unused tax-free allowance connected to a share may be deducted from a capital gain on the same share, but may not lead to or increase a deductible loss. Further, unused tax-free allowance related to a share may not be set off against gains from realization of other shares. If a Norwegian private individual shareholder realizes shares acquired at different point of time, the shares that were first acquired will be deemed as first sold (the "first in first out"-principle) upon calculating taxable gain or loss. A Norwegian private individual shareholder who ceases to be tax resident in Norway due to domestic law or tax treaty provisions may become subject to Norwegian exit taxation of capital gains related to shares. The Shares will not qualify for Norwegian share saving accounts (Nw: aksjesparekonto) since the Company is resident outside the EEA for tax purposes. -177- “ ” “ ” “ ” ’ “ ”

Orders without indicated price limit or unlimited orders submitted by retail investors will be valid up until the maximum public offering price. For purposes of the U.S. offering, the Company and the representatives have set an expected price of $135.00, which may be varied from time to time but will not exceed the maximum public offering price at which our shares of Class A common stock are offered in the European retail offering. The final public offering price per share of Class A common stock in the European retail offering will be equal to the final initial public offering price per share of Class A common stock determined in the U.S. offering. For example, if the expected price set for purposes of the U.S. offering were to be varied to $138.00 and the final public offering price be set at that price, the final public offering price in the European retail offering would be set at $138.00 as well. The final public offering price will be exclusive of tax on stock exchange transactions or other taxes, and of costs (including exchange rate conversion fees), if any, charged by financial inteunediaries (other than the European underwriters) for the placement of purchase orders. The Company will publish the final public offering price in accordance with Article 17(2) of the Prospectus Regulation on or about June 11, 2026, by means of a notice to be published in electronic form on the Company's web site at https://www.spacexipo.com. In comparison to the maximum public offering price, during the last twelve months to June 4, 2026, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Technical Officer and Chaiunan of the Board Elon Musk, our President, Chief Operating Officer and Director Gwynne Shotwell and our Chief Financial Officer Bret Johnsen have acquired shares of our common stock under option and equity awards at weighted average effective cash cost per share of approximately $0.00 (all zero-cost awards), $11.0628 (or $11.2775 excluding zero-cost awards) and $4.4251 (or $4.4267 excluding zero-cost awards), respectively. For infounation of outstanding equity compensation arrangements allowing for the future acquisition of shares, see "9.3.5 Other Matters" and "9.3.6 Executive Compensation Tables". 8.1.6 Determination of the Final Result of the Offering Prior to the global offering, there has been no public market for the shares of our Class A common stock. The final public offering price and the final number of shares sold will be determined by negotiations between us and the representatives. Among the factors considered in deteunining the final public offering price and the final number of shares sold are prevailing market conditions, our future prospects and those of our industry in general, our historical financial and operating perfounance in recent periods, an assessment by our management and the -183- t’ it r “ ” rm i rm ’ rm rm “ ” “ ” rm rm


 
consideration of the above factors in relation to market valuation of companies engaged in activities similar to ours. 8.1.7 Publication of the Final Results of the Offering The results of the global offering and the European retail offering are expected to be published on or about June 11, 2026, by means of a notice to be published in electronic foul' on the Company's website at https: //www. spacexipo . com . Investors who have placed purchase orders in the European retail offering with one of the European underwriters or financial intelinediaries can obtain infounation from that European underwriter or financial intelinediary about the final public offering price and the number of shares of Class A common stock allotted to them following the pricing. As trading in the Company's shares on Nasdaq is expected to begin on or about June 12, 2026, investors may not have obtained infounation about the number of shares allotted to them at the time of beginning of trading. 8.1.8 Amendments of the Conditions of the Offering We reserve the right, after consultation with the representatives, to increase or decrease the total number of offered shares of Class A common stock in the global offering and the European retail offering, to increase or decrease the maximum public offering price, and/or to extend or shorten the offer period. Changes in relation to the number of offered shares of Class A common stock, changes to the maximum public offering price, or the extension or shortening of the offer period will not invalidate any offers to purchase shares of Class A common stock that have already been submitted. If such change requires the publication of a supplement to the prospectus, investors who submitted purchase orders before the supplement is published shall have the right, pursuant to Article 23 of the Prospectus Regulation, to withdraw these offers to purchase within three working days (within the meaning of Article 2 point (t) of the Prospectus Regulation) of the publication of such supplement, provided that the significant new factor, material mistake or material inaccuracy requiring the publication of a supplement to this prospectus arose or was noted before the closing of the offer period or the delivery of the offered shares of Class A common stock. Investors who have submitted offers to purchase will not be notified individually. Instead of withdrawing their offers to purchase our Class A common stock placed prior to the publication of the supplement, investors may change their orders or place new limited or unlimited offers to purchase within three working days (within the meaning of Article 2 point (t) of the Prospectus Regulation) following the publication of the supplement, depending on the procedures of the syndicate banks and financial intelinediaries through which orders are placed. Any changes to the teens of the European retail offering and the global offering will be published on the Company's website at www.spacex.com, on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov, and/or, if required, as a supplement to this prospectus. 8.1.9 Conditions for the Closing of the Offering The underwriting agreement, which we expect to enter into with representatives on or about June 11, 2026, will provide that the obligations of the several underwriters to pay for and accept delivery of the shares of Class A common stock offered in the global offering and by this prospectus are, and consequently the closing of the global offering and the European retail offering are, subject to certain conditions as further detailed in "8.3 Placing and Underwriting" below. 8.1.10 Termination of the Offering Upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of certain customary events prior to the expected closing date or the closing date in relation to any additional shares sold pursuant to the option to purchase additional shares described in "8.4.1.2 Option to Purchase Additional Shares" below, the representatives, on behalf of the underwriters, may terminate the underwriting agreement, after the final results of the offering have been determined, please refer to "8.3.3 Termination and Indemnification" below. If the global offering is not successful and the underwriting agreement is not executed or if the offering is successful and the underwriting agreement is executed, the conditions for the closing of the global offering are not satisfied or in case of a teunination of the underwriting agreement prior to the expected closing date, the global offering, including the European retail offering, will not take place, orders placed for our class Class A common stock by investors will be automatically cancelled, allocations of our Class A common stock to investors will -184- rm ’ rm rm rm ’ rm rm rm ’ ’ f “ ” “ ” “ i ” rm


 
become void, and investors have no claim regarding the delivery of our Class A common stock. Claims with respect to any subscription fees already paid and costs incurred by an investor in connection with the purchase of our Class A common stock will be governed solely by the legal relationship between the investor and the financial inteimediary to which the investor submitted its purchase order. The Company and, if orders for the offered shares of Class A common stock are placed through financial intermediaries other than the European underwriters, the European underwriters will have no responsibility or liability for any loss incurred by any person as a result of a teunination of the global offering, including the European retail offering, or the related annulment of any transactions in Class A common stock. 8.1.11 Payment and Delivery of Class A Common Stock Payment for any shares sold in the global offering (if any) is expected to be made to the Company against delivery of such shares for the respective accounts of the several underwriters at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on or about June 15, 2026, or at such other time on the same or such other date, not later than June 15, 2026 (the closing date). Book-entry delivery of the allotted shares of Class A common stock to investors participating in the European retail offering against payment of the final public offering price is expected to take place as soon as practicable thereafter.

June 15, 2026 Closing of the global offering (delivery of the purchased Class A common stock to the underwriters) As soon as practicable thereafter Onward delivery of purchased Class A common stock to investors, including in the European retail offering The prospectus will be published on the Company's website at https://www.spacexipo.com. 8.2 Plan of Distribution and Allotment 8.2.1 Plan of Allotment The global offering of the shares of Class A common stock by the underwriters is subject to receipt and acceptance and subject to the underwriters' right to reject any order in whole or in part, at their discretion, provided that the following criteria will be observed. 8.2.1.1 European Retail Offering The European retail offering contemplated by this prospectus forms a tranche within the global offering. If and to the extent the European retail shares are not subscribed for by eligible retail investors or if the Company and the European underwriters decide to reduce the number of offered European retail shares or set a final amount of European retail shares offered below the maximum number of shares offered under this prospectus, the European retail shares not subscribed for or no longer offered under this prospectus, respectively, may be offered and sold in the global offering, provided that in any Member States of the EEA they will be offered solely in circumstances falling within the scope of application of Article 1(4) of the Prospectus Regulation. 8.2.1.2 Directed Share Program At our request, the underwriters have reserved up to 5% of the shares of Class A common stock offered in the global offering for sale at the initial public offering price through a directed share program to certain employees and persons selected based on the discretion of our executive officers, which may include parties with whom we have a business relationship and friends and family of our executive officers. If purchased by these persons, these shares will not be subject to lock-up restriction. The number of shares of Class A common stock available for sale to the general public will be reduced by the number of reserved shares sold to these persons, provided that no European retail shares will be offered under the directed share program and, therefore, the number of European retail shares available for sale will remain unaffected. Any reserved shares not purchased by these persons will be offered by the underwriters to the general public on the same basis as the other shares of Class A common stock offered in the global offering other than in the European retail offering and the offering made in Switzerland on the basis of this prospectus. We will agree to indemnify the underwriters and their affiliates against certain liabilities and expenses, including liabilities under the U.S. Securities Act, in connection with sales of the shares reserved for the directed share program. Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, an underwriter in the global offering, and its affiliates will administer the global directed share program. 8.2.1.3 Maximum Allocation to Discretionary Accounts With respect to the global offering, the underwriters have informed us that they do not intend sales to discretionary accounts (i.e., customer accounts for which the underwriters (by virtue of being broker-dealers and holding customer funds) have investment authority to buy shares on their client's behalf (without requiring express client approval)) to exceed 5% of the total number of shares of Class A common stock offered by them. 8.2.2 Distribution through selling group members In addition to allocations made to retail investors by the underwriters, we currently anticipate that certain of the shares of Class A common stock offered in the global offering will, at our request, be placed with retail investors in the United States through Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., Fidelity Brokerage Services LLC and Fidelity Capital Markets, a division of National Financial Services LLC, Robinhood Financial, LLC, and SoFi Securities LLC, as selling group members, via their respective online brokerage platforms. We also anticipate that certain of the shares of Class A common stock will be offered in the U.S. offering to retail investors through E*TRADE by Morgan Stanley, an affiliate of Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, one of the underwriters of the global offering. These platforms are not affiliated with us. Purchases through these platforms will be subject to the terms, conditions and requirements set by each selling group member. Any purchase of our Class A common stock in the global offering -186- ’ t ’ t’


 
through these platfouns will be at the same initial public offering price, and at the same time, as any other purchases in the global offering, including purchases by institutions and other large investors. The selling group members' platfouns and infounation on the selling group members' applications do not foul' a part of nor are they incorporated by reference into this prospectus. 8.3 Placing and Underwriting If the global offering is successful, the Company expects to enter into an underwriting agreement with the representatives, acting on behalf of the underwriters named below on or about June 11, 2026 after the end of the offer period. As of the date of this prospectus, the underwriters have not agreed to underwrite our shares of Class A common stock offered in the global offering and the European retail offering on a film commitment basis, and are under no obligation to enter into the underwriting agreement. However, if the global offering is successful and a final public offering price is set, the Company expects the underwriters to underwrite our shares of Class A common stock finally placed in the global offering on a film commitment basis (as set out immediately below). 8.3.1 Subject of and Arrangements on Underwriting Under the teens and subject to the conditions in the underwriting agreement, the underwriters named below (collectively referred to as the "underwriters") are expected to severally agree to purchase, and we expect to agree to sell to them, severally, all shares of Class A common stock finally placed in the global offering: Underwriters Goldman Sachs & Co.

LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC are acting as joint book-running managers and as representatives (collectively referred to as the "representatives") for the underwriters in the global offering. The joint book- running managers and representatives advise the Company on the global offering and coordinate the structuring and execution of the global offering. The United States underwriters and international underwriters named in this prospectus will participate in the U.S. offering and the other international offerings (including private placements) but will not participate in the European retail offering. The underwriters are offering the shares of Class A common stock subject to their acceptance of such shares from us and subject to prior sale. If the underwriting agreement is made, the underwriters will be obligated to take and pay for all of the shares of Class A common stock offered finally placed in the global offering (including the European retail offering) if any such shares are taken up by investors (firm commitment basis). However, the individual underwriting quotas (i.e. the number of shares of Class A common stock to be severally underwritten by each underwriter) have not yet been determined as of the date of this prospectus. These quotas will only be determined upon pricing of the global offering. The Company will determine the individual quotas, taking into account, among other things, each underwriter's contribution to the bookbuilding process and its respective role in the syndicate of the global offering. Irrespective of the allocation of individual quotas, the underwriters will, in the aggregate, severally underwrite all shares of Class A common stock finally placed in the global offering on a firm commitment basis, subject to and upon execution of the underwriting agreement. The underwriting agreement will provide that the obligations of the several underwriters to pay for and accept delivery of the shares of Class A common stock offered by us in the global offering (including the European retail offering) are subject to various conditions, including, among other things, (i) there shall not have occurred any downgrading, nor shall any notice have been given of any intended or potential downgrading or of any review for a possible change that does not indicate the direction of the possible change, in the rating accorded any of the securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries by any "nationally recognized statistical rating organization", as such term is defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act (ii) there shall not have occurred any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business or operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, from that set forth in the prospectuses relating to the global offering, including this prospectus, that, in the representatives' judgment, is material and adverse and that makes it, in the representatives' judgment, impracticable to market the Class A common stock on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the prospectuses, and (iii) the receipt of customary certificates, legal opinions and auditor letters. To cover any over-allotments made through stabilization transactions, the Company will agree in the underwriting agreement to grant the underwriters an option to purchase up to 83,333,333 additional shares, as further detailed in "8.4.1.2 Option to Purchase Additional Shares" below. The underwriters are not required to take or pay for the shares covered by the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares. 8.3.2 Underwriting Discounts and Commissions The Company and the underwriters have not yet agreed on the underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriting discounts and commissions will be determined by the Company at pricing and will be agreed with the underwriters in the underwriting agreement. The Company expects that the total underwriting discounts and commissions for the global offering will be approximately $500 million. The following table shows the per share and total public offering price, indicative maximum of underwriting discounts and commissions, and resulting proceeds before expenses to us (in each case including their respective attribution to European retail shares) assuming the shares are finally placed at the expected price for the purpose of the U.S. offering of $135.00 and at the maximum public offering price in the European retail offering of $162.00. These amounts are shown assuming no exercise and assuming full exercise of the underwriters' option to purchase up to an additional 83,333,333 shares of Class A common stock. -188- é é é é th 1th “ e es ti ” it r’ “ ” ’ ’ “ ” ’ ’

We and the underwriters have agreed to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the U.S. Securities Act and other applicable securities laws that may arise in connection with the global offering. -189- are(1) (2) .. .................................. ...... f ................. ........................................... f ................. rmi “ . ” ’ ’ rm


 
8.3.4 Selling Restrictions The distribution of this prospectus and the sale of our Class A common stock may be restricted by law in certain jurisdictions. Our Class A common stock may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, and neither the prospectus nor any other offering material or advertisement in connection with our Class A common stock may be distributed or published in or from any country or jurisdiction other than any country or territory in which a public offering is made under the global offering, except in compliance with any applicable rules and regulations of any other country or jurisdiction. It is the responsibility of any person who receives a copy of this prospectus to inform themselves about and observe any laws and restrictions, including, but not limited to, those set out below. Failure to comply with these restrictions may constitute a violation of securities laws. No action has been or will be taken by the Company or the underwriters to peii_lit a public offering of any shares of Class A common stock or the possession or distribution of this document in any country or jurisdiction other than any country or territory in which a public offering is made under the global offering where action for such purposes may be required. In relation to each Member State of the EEA (each, a "Relevant State"), no shares of Class A common stock have been offered or will be offered in that Relevant State, except for (i) the European retail offering in Germany, Denmark, France, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain and Sweden contemplated by this prospectus (once the prospectus has been approved by Bafin and notified to the respective competent authority of each of Denmark, France, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain and Sweden and published, in each case in accordance with the Prospectus Regulation) and (ii) with respect to any shares other than the European retail shares in any Relevant State at any time under the following exemptions under the Prospectus Regulation: • to any qualified investor as defined under Article 2 of the Prospectus Regulation; • to fewer than 150 natural or legal persons (other than qualified investors as defined under Article 2 of the Prospectus Regulation), subject to obtaining the prior consent of the representatives for any such offer; or • in any other circumstances falling within the scope of application of Article 1(4) of the Prospectus Regulation, provided that no such offer of shares of Class A common stock shall require us or any underwriter to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Regulation or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 23 of the Prospectus Regulation and each person who initially acquires the shares of Class A common stock or to whom any offer is made will be deemed to have represented, warranted and agreed to and with each of us and the underwriters that it is a qualified investor within the meaning of Article 2 point (e) of the Prospectus Regulation. In the case of any shares of Class A common stock being offered to a financial intei lediary as that teen is used in Article 5(1) of the Prospectus Regulation, each financial intelinediary will also be deemed to have represented, warranted and agreed that the shares of Class A common stock acquired by it in the offer have not been acquired on a non-discretionary basis on behalf of, nor have they been acquired with a view to their offer or resale to, persons in circumstances which may give rise to an offer of the shares of Class A common stock to the public, other than their offer or resale in a Relevant State to qualified investors as so defined or in circumstances in which the prior consent of the underwriters has been obtained to each such proposed offer or resale. For the purposes of this provision, the expression an "offer to the public" in relation to the shares of Class A common stock in any Relevant State means the communication in any foul' and by any means of sufficient infounation on the teens of the offer and the shares of Class A common stock to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for the shares of Class A common stock. 8.4 Admission to Trading and Dealing Arrangements We have applied to list our Class A common stock on Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas under the symbol "SPCX". The ISIN of our Class A common stock is US84615Q1031. We expect that trading in our Class A common stock on Nasdaq will commence on or about June 12, 2026. Any decision on the listing of the Company's Class A common stock on Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas will be made solely by Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas at their discretion. -190- rm “ ” rm rm rm “ ” rm rm rm “ ” ’


 
We do not currently intend to list our Class A common stock on any exchange in any other jurisdiction in which the global offering is made. The Company has not engaged any entities which give a firm commitment to act as intermediaries in secondary trading on Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas. 8.4.1 Stabilization, Over-Allotment, and Green Shoe 8.4.1.1 Stabilization Transactions In order to facilitate the offering of our Class A common stock, the underwriters offering our Class A common stock for sale in the U.S. offering, with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC acting as stabilization agent, may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our Class A common stock on Nasdaq. Specifically, the underwriters may sell more shares of Class A common stock than they will be obligated to purchase under the underwriting agreement, creating a short position. A short sale is covered if the short position is no greater than the number of shares available for purchase by the underwriters under the option to purchase additional shares. The underwriters can close out a covered short sale by exercising the option to purchase additional shares described in "8.4.1.2 Option to Purchase Additional Shares" below or purchasing shares in the open market. In determining the source of shares to close out a covered short sale, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the open market price of our Class A common stock compared to the price available under the option to purchase additional shares. The underwriters may also sell shares of Class A common stock in excess of the option to purchase additional shares, creating a naked short position. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares of Class A common stock in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of our Class A common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase shares of Class A common stock in the global offering. As an additional means of facilitating the global offering, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, shares of Class A common stock in the open market to stabilize the price of our Class A common stock. These activities may raise or maintain the market price of our Class A common stock above independent market levels that would otherwise prevail or prevent or retard a decline in the market price of our Class A common stock. The underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may end any of these activities at any time. Under securities laws of the United States, there is no prescribed maximum period in which stabilization transactions may be carried out. 8.4.1.2 Option to Purchase Additional Shares We will grant to the underwriters in the underwriting agreement an option, exercisable for 30 days from the date of the underwriting agreement, to purchase up to 83,333,333 additional shares of Class A common stock at the final public offering price for the purposes of covering any over-allotments made through short sales, as described in "8.4.1.1 Stabilization Transactions" above. To the extent the option is exercised, each underwriter will become obligated, subject to certain conditions, to purchase about the same percentage of the additional shares of Class A common stock as the number listed next to the underwriter's name in the table set forth in "8.3.1 Subject of and Arrangements on Underwriting" bears to the total number of shares of Class A common stock listed next to the names of all underwriters in the table set forth in "8.3.1 Subject of and Arrangements on Underwriting". 8.4.2 MiFID Product Governance Requirements Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within: (i) MiFID (ii) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; and (iii) local implementing measures (together, the "MiFID II Product Governance Requirements"), and without assuming any responsibility or liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the MiFID II Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the Class A common stock has been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that such Class A common stock is: (i) compatible with an end target market of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the "Target Market Assessment"). -191- “ . ” “ ” it r’ “ ” “ ” r II; “ ” “ ” “ ”


 
Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, the price of the Class A common stock may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the Class A common stock offers no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the Class A common stock is suitable only for investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who have at least informed knowledge and experience with financial instruments and (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment, and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal, or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the European retail offering. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, the underwriters will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties in the private placement parts of the global offering. For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (i) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II or (ii) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to, the Class A common stock. Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own Target Market Assessment in respect of the Class A common stock and determining appropriate distribution channels. 8.5 Lock-Up Arrangements The global offering only relates to the sale of newly issued shares of our Class A common stock. Our holders of existing Class A common stock will not sell any shares in the global offering. We expect to enter into, and all of our common stock is subject to, the following lock-up arrangements: 8.5.1 Lock-Up of the Company We expect that we will agree with the underwriters in the underwriting agreement that during the period of 180 days after the date of the underwriting agreement (the "lock-up period"), without the prior written consent of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, on behalf of the underwriters, subject to certain exceptions, we will not (a) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the SEC a registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act relating to, any shares of our common stock or other securities substantially similar to our common stock, including but not limited to any options or warrants to purchase shares of our common stock or any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, common stock or any such substantially similar securities, or publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, or (b) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any of our common stock or such other securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (a) or (b) above is to be settled by delivery of our common stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise (other than the shares sold in this offering or pursuant to employee stock option plans existing on, or upon the conversion or exchange of convertible or exchangeable securities outstanding as of, the date of this offering). The lock-up restrictions applicable to the Company do not restrict the issuance and sale of shares by the Company in the global offering itself, but instead generally restrict subsequent issuances and sales of securities by the Company during the lock-up period, subject to customary exceptions. These restrictions are subject to a number of exceptions which fall into the following principal categories set out below: (a) Exercise, vesting, settlement, and conversion of existing equity instruments: The Company may issue shares of common stock upon the exercise of options or warrants, the vesting and settlement of restricted stock units or similar equity awards, or the reclassification or conversion of securities. (b) Equity compensation: The Company may grant or issue, and settle or exercise, options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance stock awards, or any other type of equity award or arrangement to employees, officers, directors, advisors, or consultants pursuant to employee benefit plans, including the issuance of shares pursuant to employee stock purchase plans.

Specifically, these restrictions do not apply to: (a) the shares sold in this offering, (b) the issuance by us of our common stock upon the exercise (including any net exercise) of an option or warrant, the vesting and settlement (including any net settlement) of restricted stock units or similar equity awards or the reclassification or conversion of a security, in each case outstanding on the date hereof and identified herein, (c) the grant or issuance by us, or exercise or settlement (in cash, shares of our common stock, or otherwise), of options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, perfoiinance stock awards or any other type of equity award or arrangement to our employees, officers, directors, advisors or consultants pursuant to our employee benefit plans described herein or the issuance by us of our common stock pursuant to our employee stock purchase plan described herein, (d) the filing by us of one or more registration statements with the SEC on Foul' S-8 or any successor foul' thereto with respect to any of our employee benefit plans described herein, (e) the establishment or amendment of a trading plan on behalf of our shareholders, officers or directors pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of shares of our common stock; provided that (i) such plan does not provide for the transfer of our common stock during the lock-up period (except to the extent otherwise allowed pursuant to the terns of a lock-up agreement) and (ii) to the extent a public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act, if any, is required of, or voluntarily made by, us regarding the establishment or amendment of such plan, such announcement or filing shall include a statement to the effect that no transfer of our common stock may be made under such plan during any lock-up period to which such shareholder, officer or director is bound, (f) sales of our common stock on behalf of our employees to satisfy the withholding taxes payable upon the vesting, exercise or settlement of such employee's equity awards pursuant to our employee benefit plans described herein, (g) the sale, exchange, or issuance of, or entry into an agreement to sell, exchange, or issue, our common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our common stock (including, without limitation, options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, or warrants) in connection with any acquisition of the equity interests or assets of any person, the acquisition by the Company or its subsidiary by any means of any license, right to use, business, properties, assets, products, technologies or person, in one or a series of transactions (whether by means of merger, stock or equity purchase, asset purchase or otherwise), including pursuant to an employee benefit plan assumed by us in connection with such transaction, or in connection with joint ventures, commercial relationships or other strategic or collaborative corporate transactions or alliances, or any announcement or filing of a registration statement related thereto. 8.5.2 Lock-Up of Pre-IPO Shareholders All shares of our common stock outstanding immediately prior to the global offering will be subject to restrictions on Transfer (as defined below) in connection with the global offering as follows. Shareholders (including our founder) may not (and may not cause or direct any of their affiliates to), without the prior written consent of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, on behalf of the underwriters: (a) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of (directly or indirectly) any shares of our common stock, or any options, rights, or warrants to purchase any shares of our common stock or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares of our common stock (such -193- (c) rm rm rm rm rm rm m ’

In addition, our founder may make Peunitted Transfers (as defined in our charter), subject to the restrictions described in clauses (A), (B), and (D) of paragraph a. above. Our founder's shares are not subject to any early release provisions during the lock-up period.

The shares subject to the extended lock-up period, together with the shares held by our founder (which are subject to a 366-day lock-up period), represent approximately 7.8 billion shares of common stock, or greater than 63% of our shares outstanding immediately prior to this offering. For those shares subject to the extended lock-up period (which does not include shares held by our founder), there are automatic early releases from the restrictions on Transfer commencing in the first quarter of 2027 as follows: (a) on or after the second full trading day on Nasdaq immediately following the public release of our quarterly financial results (which for this purpose does not include "flash" numbers or preliminary, partial earnings) for the quarter ended December 31, 2026, up to 20% of the shares may be Transferred; (b) on or after March 18, 2027 (the date that is 280 days after the date of the Company's final prospectus to be filed with the SEC), up to an additional 10% of the shares may be Transferred; (c) on or after the second full trading day on Nasdaq immediately following the public release of our quarterly financial results (which for this purpose does not include "flash" numbers or preliminary, partial earnings) for the quarter ended March 31, 2027, up to an additional 20% of the shares may be Transferred; (d) on or after May 17, 2027 (the date that is 340 days after the date of the Company's final prospectus to be filed with the SEC), up to an additional 10% of the shares may be Transferred; (e) on or after June 12, 2027 (the date that is 366 days after the date of the Company's final prospectus to be filed with the SEC), up to an additional 20% of the shares may be Transferred; and (f) on or after the second full trading day on Nasdaq immediately following the public release of our quarterly financial results (which for this purpose does not include "flash" numbers or preliminary, partial earnings) for the quarter ended June 30, 2027, all of the shares may be Transferred. All other outstanding shares of our common stock are subject to the Transfer restrictions described above until immediately after the close of the trading day on the 180th day after the date of the Company's final prospectus to be filed with the SEC (such period of time, the "180-day lock-up period"), subject to the early release provisions described below. For those shares subject to the 180-day lock-up period, there are automatic early releases from the restrictions on Transfer commencing in the third quarter of 2026 as follows: (a) on or after the second full trading day on Nasdaq immediately following the public release of our quarterly financial results (which for this purpose does not include "flash" numbers or preliminary, partial earnings) for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 (such date, the "First Earnings Release Date"), up to 20% of the shares may be Transferred; (b) if the reported closing price of our Class A common stock on Nasdaq is at least 30% greater than the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus for at least five of the ten consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the First Earnings Release Date, on or after the second full trading day immediately after the First Earnings Release Date, up to an additional 10% of the shares may be Transferred; (c) up to an additional 7% of the shares may be Transferred on or after each of the dates that are 70 days, 90 days, 105 days, 120 days, and 135 days, respectively, after the date of this prospectus; (d) on or after the second full trading day on Nasdaq immediately following the public release of our quarterly financial results (which for this purpose does not include "flash" numbers or preliminary, partial earnings) for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, up to an additional 28% of the shares may be Transferred; and (e) on or after the date that is 180 days after the date of this prospectus, all of the shares may be Transferred. 8.6 Dilution Purchasers of the Class A common stock in the global offering (including the European retail offering) will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net book value per share of the Class A common stock -197- “ ” ’ (c) “ ” ’ ’ “ ” ’ “ ” “ ” “ i ” (c) “ ”


 
for accounting purposes. After giving effect to the Class C Reclassification and the Preferred Conversion as if such reclassification and conversion occurred on March 31, 2026, our pro forma net asset value as of March 31, 2026 was approximately $41,582.0 million, or $3.32 per share of common stock. Pro founa net asset value per share is deteunined by dividing our net asset value (total assets less total liabilities) as of March 31, 2026 by the total number of outstanding shares of all classes of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the completion of the global offering (12,520,309,620). After giving effect to the sale of the base shares of Class A common stock in the global offering (which include the European retail shares) and the payment of underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses by us, our adjusted pro founa net asset value as of March 31, 2026 would have been approximately $116,027 million, or $8.87 per share of common stock. This represents an immediate increase in the net asset value of $5.55 per share of common stock or 167.2% to Mr. Musk and other existing investors and an immediate dilution (i.e., the difference between the offering price and the adjusted pro founa net asset value immediately after the global offering) to new investors purchasing shares of Class A common stock in the global offering of $126.13 per share or 93.4%. The following table illustrates the per share dilution to new investors purchasing shares of Class A common stock in the global offering: $135.00 Initial public offering price per share Pro foil_la net asset value per share as of March 31, 2026 $3.32 Increase per share attributable to new investors in the global offering $5.55 As adjusted pro founa net asset value per share after giving effect to the global offering $8.87 Dilution in pro foil_la net asset value per share to new investors in the global offering (amount by which the initial public offering price exceeds the pro forma post-offering net asset value per share) (immediate dilution of the new shareholders, absolute and in per cent)(1) $126.13 (93.4%) Amount by which the pro foil_la net asset value per share after giving effect to the global offering exceeds the net asset value per share immediately prior to the global offering (immediate accretion of existing investors, absolute and in per cent.) $5.55 (167.2%) (1) If the number of shares of Class A common stock offered by us in the global offering were to increase or decrease by one million shares, then dilution in pro forma net asset value per share of Class A common stock to new investors in the global offering would increase or decrease by $0.01. The following table summarizes, on an adjusted pro foil_la basis as of March 31, 2026, the total number of shares of Class A and Class B common stock owned by Mr. Musk and other existing investors and to be owned by new investors in the global offering, the total consideration paid, and the average price per share paid by Mr. Musk and other existing investors and to be paid by new investors in the global offering at $135.00, assuming sale of all base shares, calculated before deduction of underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses.

The SEC alleged that these posts were materially false and misleading, in violation of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. In settling the action, Mr. Musk did not admit or deny the SEC's allegations and consented to the entry of a judgment that enjoined him from violating these laws, ordered him to pay a $20 million civil penalty and required him to comply with procedures implemented by Tesla with respect to preclearing his public statements about Tesla. While he was required to step down as chairman of the board of Tesla for three years, there is no restriction on Mr. Musk's ability to serve as an officer or director on the board of directors of any public or private company. On April 26, 2019, this settlement was amended to further clarify the pre-clearance procedures applicable to his making certain public statements about Tesla. The amendment was subsequently approved by the District Court. On April 3, 2026, in Pampena v. Musk, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California entered a partial judgment against Mr. Musk in his personal capacity only in favor of lead plaintiffs on behalf of -202- i ’ v ’ ’ ’


 
themselves and a class of investors who sold certain Twitter, Inc. equity securities between May 13 and October 4, 2022. The judgment is based on a jury verdict rendered on March 20, 2026 that found (i) in favor of plaintiffs on claims alleging that Mr. Musk violated Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder in connection with two statements made by Mr. Musk in May 2022 and (ii) in favor of Mr. Musk on claims challenging a third statement and alleging a "scheme to defraud" under Rules 10b-5(a) and (c). The claims in this case all concern Mr. Musk's then-pending potential purchase of Twitter, Inc. On May 1, 2026, Mr. Musk challenged the partial judgment by filing a post-trial motion for judgment motions for judgment as a matter of law and motion to decertify the class. The motion practice is ongoing, and the Court is expected to hear these motions in June 2026. 9.1.4 Family Relationships There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers. 9.1.5 Controlled Company Exemption Upon completion of the offering, if we sell all base shares, Mr. Musk will hold approximately 91.6% of our outstanding Class B common stock, which under our charter, as described under "7.1 Description of Capital Stock," will be entitled to elect 51% of the total number of authorized directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number), and 83.6% of the total voting power of our outstanding common stock (or 83.5% if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of Class A common stock in full). As a result, we will be a "controlled company" within the meaning of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas corporate governance standards. Under the listing rules of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power with respect to director elections is held by another person or group of persons acting together is a "controlled company" and may elect not to comply with certain Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas corporate governance requirements, including the requirements that: • a majority of such company's board of directors consist of independent directors as defined under the listing rules of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas; • director nominees be selected or recommended for board of directors' selection by a nominating committee composed entirely of independent directors, with a written charter addressing the nominations process as required under the listing rules of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas; • the compensation committee be composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee's purpose and responsibilities; and • annual performance evaluations of the compensation and nominating committees be conducted. Following the completion of the offering, we intend to utilize certain of these exemptions. As a result, we do not expect to have a compensation and nominating committee that is composed entirely of independent directors or that has a committee charter that addresses all Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas requirements applicable to companies that are not controlled companies. Additionally, we may elect to take advantage of certain other exemptions in the future for as long as we remain a "controlled company." Accordingly, our Class A shareholders will not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas. In the event that we cease to be a "controlled company" and our shares continue to be listed on Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas, we will be required to comply with all of the applicable governance requirements within the applicable transition periods. 9.1.6 Composition of Our Board Upon the consummation of the offering, our board will consist of eight directors. Subject to the tell_is of our charter and bylaws, the number of directors on our board will be determined from time to time by our board. Under the terms of our charter, the holders of our outstanding Class B common stock, voting separately as a class, will have the right to elect 51% of the total number of authorized directors, rounded up to the nearest whole number (the Class B Directors). Holders of Class A and Class B common stock, voting together as a single class, will elect the remaining members of our board (the Common Stock Directors). We expect that upon the completion of the offering Mr. Musk, Gwynne Shotwell, Antonio J. Gracias, Donald Harrison, and Luke Nosek will serve as the initial Class B Directors and Ira Ehrenpreis, Randy Glein, and Steve Jurvetson will serve as the initial Common Stock Directors. -203- “ ” ’ i “ ” “ ” “ ” ’ ’ tt ’ “ ” “ ” rm


 
Our board will be subject to annual elections. Each director will hold office until the next annual meeting of our shareholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal (as provided in our charter). For additional information, please refer to "7.1 Description of Capital Stock." 9.1.7 Role of our Board in Risk Oversight Our board believes that risk management is an important part of establishing, updating and executing on our business strategy. Our board, as a whole and at the committee level, has oversight responsibility relating to risks that could affect our corporate strategy, business objectives, compliance, operations and financial condition and performance. Our board focuses its oversight on the most significant risks facing us and on the processes to identify, prioritize, assess, manage and mitigate those risks. While our board has an oversight role, management is principally tasked with direct responsibility for management and assessment of risks and the implementation of processes and controls to mitigate their effects on us. 9.1.8 Director Independence Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, our board has determined that each of Ira Ehrenpreis, Randy Glein, Donald Harrison, Steve Jurvetson, and Luke Nosek is independent within the meaning of the listing standards of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas currently in effect. In making this determination, our board considered the relationships that each of these directors has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our board deemed relevant in determining their independence, including (i) the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each such director and/or investment funds or other entities affiliated with them and (ii) the relationships set forth below under "11.7 Transactions with Related Parties." The board also considered that Donald Harrison was employed by an organization that does business with Company. The amount received by the Company or such other organization in each of the last three fiscal years did not exceed the greater of $200,000 or 5% of either the Company's or such organization's consolidated gross revenues. 9.1.9 Board Leadership Structure Upon the completion of the offering, as provided in our charter, our board will continue to be led by Mr. Musk. Pursuant to the terms of our charter, he can only be removed from the board and these leadership positions by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our Class B common stock, voting separately as a class. Our board has concluded that our current leadership structure is appropriate at this time. 9.1.10 Board Committees In connection with the completion of the offering, our board will establish an audit committee and a compensation and nominating committee. Audit and compensation and nominating committees will be governed by their charters that will be available on our website at www.spacex.com. Pursuant to our bylaws, our board may, from time to time, establish other committees to facilitate the management of our business and operations. Information contained on our website or linked therein or otherwise connected thereto does not constitute part of nor is it incorporated by reference into this prospectus. 9.1.10.1 Audit Committee The primary responsibilities of our audit committee will include, among other things: • assisting our board in its oversight responsibilities regarding the integrity of our financial statements, our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the independent accountant's qualifications and independence and our accounting and financial reporting processes of and the audits of our financial statements; • preparing the report required by the SEC for inclusion in our annual proxy or information statement; • approving audit and non-audit services to be performed by the independent accountants; and • performing such other functions as our board may from time to time assign to the audit committee. -204- “ ”   “ t ” y’ i ’ t t’


 
The audit committee will be empowered to retain any advisors as it deems necessary or appropriate to assist it in fulfilling its responsibilities, and to approve the fees and other retention terms of such advisors. Upon the completion of the offering, Randy Glein and Steve Jurvetson are expected to be the members of our audit committee. Randy Glein is expected to qualify as an "audit committee financial expert" as such term is defined under the rules of the SEC implementing Section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and each of Randy Glein and Steve Jurvetson qualifies as an independent director for purposes of Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act and the listing standards of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas. We will identify the third member to serve on the audit committee within the applicable one year period under Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas listing rules. Randy Glein is expected to serve as the chair of the audit committee. 9.1.10.2 Compensation and Nominating Committee The primary responsibilities of our compensation and nominating committee will include, among other things: • overseeing the Company's overall compensation philosophy; • reviewing and approving, or recommending to the full board for approval, the compensation and other benefits for executive officers; • reviewing and recommending to our board for approval the fouu and amount of compensation for our independent directors; • making recommendations to our board regarding director candidates and assisting our board in deterr_lining the composition of our board and its committees, subject to the tell_is of our charter; and • performing such other functions as our board may from time to time assign to the committee. Upon the completion of the global offering, Ira Ehrenpreis, Antonio J. Gracias, and Luke Nosek are expected to be the members of our compensation and nominating committee. As a "controlled company," we will rely upon the exemption from Nasdaq's and Nasdaq Texas' requirement that we have a compensation and nominating committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a committee charter that addresses all Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas' requirements applicable to companies that are not controlled companies. Each of Ira Ehrenpreis and Luke Nosek qualifies as an independent director under the listing standards of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas, including the heightened independence standards for members of a compensation committee, and as a "non-employee director" as defined in Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act. Ira Ehrenpreis is expected to serve as the chair of the compensation and nominating committee. 9.1.11 Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation During the last completed fiscal year, we were not a publicly traded company and did not have a compensation committee or any other committee serving a similar function. Historically, the board has been responsible for determining, and has made all decisions regarding, the compensation for Mr. Musk. With respect to those expected to serve as our other executive officers, Mr. Musk has had primary responsibility for compensation-related decisions; however, all equity awards were approved by the board. 9.1.12 Code of Business Conduct and Ethics In connection with the offering, our board will adopt a code of business conduct and ethics applicable to our employees, directors and officers, in accordance with applicable SEC rules and the corporate governance rules of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas. We expect that any amendments to the code or any waivers of its requirements applicable to our directors and executive officers will be disclosed on our website at www.spacex.com, as and to the extent required by applicable SEC rules and the corporate governance rules of Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas. Information contained on our website or linked therein or otherwise connected thereto does not constitute part of, nor is it incorporated by reference into, this prospectus. 9.1.13 Corporate Governance Guidelines In connection with the completion of the offering, we intend to adopt corporate governance guidelines, which will set forth expectations for directors, director qualification standards, committee structure and functions and other policies for the governance of our company. A copy of our corporate governance guidelines will be -205- “ ” ’ rm m rm           “ ” ’   ’ ’        “ ” t l ti r


 
posted on our website at www. spacex. corn. Information contained on our website or linked therein or otherwise connected thereto does not constitute part of, nor is it incorporated by reference into, this prospectus. 9.1.14 Indemnification of Directors and Officers Under the TBOC, the charter of a corporation may provide that a director or officer of the corporation is not liable, or is liable only to the extent provided by the charter, to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for an act or omission by the person in the person's capacity as a director or officer. The TBOC does not authorize elimination or limitation of liability to the extent the director or officer is found liable under applicable law for: • any breach of the director's or officer's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its shareholders; • any act or omission not in good faith that constitutes a breach of duty of the director or officer to the corporation or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; • any transaction from which the director or officer receives an improper benefit, whether or not the benefit resulted from an action taken within the scope of the director's duties; or • an act or omission for which the liability of the director or officer is expressly provided by an applicable statute. Our charter will provide that our directors and officers are not liable to the Company or its shareholders for monetary damages for an act or omission by the director or officer in his or her capacity as a director or officer or for a breach of any duty as a director or officer to the fullest extent perr_fitted by the TBOC, as it exists or as amended from time to time. The TBOC provides that a corporation must indemnify a director or fouler director against reasonable expenses actually incurred by the person in connection with a proceeding in which the person is a respondent because the person is or was a director, or is or was serving as a representative of another enterprise or organization or an employee benefit plan while serving as a director, if the director or former director is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of the proceeding. If a court determines that a director, former director or representative is entitled to indemnification, the court will order indemnification by the corporation and award the person expenses incurred in securing the indemnification. The TBOC also permits corporations to indemnify present or former directors where indemnification is not mandated by the TBOC; however, such permissive indemnification is subject to certain limitations and the director satisfying specified standards of conduct. The TBOC also provides that officers must be indemnified to the same extent as directors are required to be indemnified under the TBOC and that a court may also order indemnification under various circumstances. In addition, the TBOC permits indemnification in certain circumstances in which we would not otherwise have the power to do so under the provisions of the TBOC or our charter or bylaws if that indemnification is approved by the shareholders of the Company. Our bylaws will also provide that, to the fullest extent perr_fitted by the TBOC, the Company must indemnify any person who was or is, or is threatened to be made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative, legislative or investigative, including an appeal thereof, by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director or an officer (who is appointed by our board or specifically designated as such by our chief executive officer, president or chief financial officer) of the Company, or while a director or officer of the Company is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, partner, venturer, trustee, employee, administrator or agent of another entity, trust or enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if the person satisfied a specified standard of conduct. Our bylaws will also provide that expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such director or officer in defending any proceeding will be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding upon written request from that person subject to the person satisfying certain conditions. To the extent that indemnification for liabilities arising under the U.S. Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the U.S. Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification is sought by a director, officer or controlling person for liabilities arising under the U.S. Securities Act, the enforceability of such indemnification may be subject to determination by a court of competent jurisdiction and would be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. -206- m ’ r’ r’ r’ m rm m ’ ’


 
The TBOC and our bylaws peii_lit the Company to purchase insurance on behalf of existing or foil_ler officers, employees, directors or agents against any liability asserted against and incurred by that person in such capacity, or arising out of that person's status in such capacity, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify that person under the TBOC. Pursuant to this authority, we expect to obtain such insurance for the officers, employees, directors and agents of the Company and its subsidiaries. We will also enter into written indemnification agreements with each of our officers and directors that provide, in general, that we will indemnify them against loss and liability arising from, and will pay or reimburse their actual and reasonable expenses incurred in advance of the final disposition of any legal proceeding involving their service to us or on our behalf. As peunitted by the TBOC, and subject to shareholder approval, the agreements may provide for indemnification or payment of expenses in favor of the indemnitee in certain circumstances where indemnification might not otherwise be available solely under the TBOC, our charter or our bylaws. In addition, any director or officer who receives an advance or reimbursement of expenses will be required to repay those amounts if it is ultimately determined that such person was not entitled to indemnification under applicable law, our bylaws or the applicable indemnification agreement. The proposed underwriting agreement will provide for indemnification of our directors and officers by the underwriters against certain liabilities in connection with the offering (please refer to "8.3.3 Termination and Indemnification"). 9.2 Certain Information Regarding the Board of Directors In the last five years, no executive officer or director has been convicted of fraudulent offences. In the last five years, no executive officer or director has been associated with any bankruptcy, receivership or liquidation acting in its capacity as a member of any administrative, management or supervisory body. In the last five years, except as set out on F-55 (please refer to Note 17, Commitments and Contingencies, of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements), no official public incriminations or sanctions have been made by statutory or legal authorities (including designated professional bodies) against any executive officer or director, nor have sanctions been imposed by the aforementioned authorities. No court has ever disqualified any executive officer or director from acting as a member of the administrative, management, or supervisory body of a company, or from acting in the management or conduct of the affairs of any company for at least the previous five years. 9.3 Executive Compensation 9.3.1 Compensation Discussion and Analysis This Compensation Discussion and Analysis, or CD&A, provides an overview of our executive compensation philosophy, objectives, and design and each element of our executive compensation program with regard to the compensation awarded, to, earned by, or paid to the following named executive officers (collectively, our "NEOs") for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the "2025 Fiscal Year"), which includes all of our executive officers for the 2025 Fiscal Year. For the 2025 Fiscal Year, our NEOs were: Name Position Elon Musk Chief Executive Officer, Chief Technical Officer and Chaiii_Ian of the Board Gwynne Shotwell President, Chief Operating Officer and Director Bret Johnsen Chief Financial Officer 9.3.2 Our Compensation Philosophy and Objectives Our compensation program is designed to attract, retain and reward executives and employees, with a heavy emphasis on equity compensation to provide employees with a financial stake in our business and an ownership mindset. We offer a number of programs that allow employees to voluntarily elect to receive elements of their compensation in equity or to otherwise increase their ownership interests in the Company. -207- rm rm ’ rm “ ” l “ ” “ ” .................................. rm .................................. .................................. il


 
9.3.3 Process for Setting Compensation Historically, our board has been responsible for deteii_lining, and has made all decisions regarding, the compensation for Mr. Musk. With respect to the other NEOs, Mr. Musk has had primary responsibility for compensation-related decisions (in consultation with Ms. Shotwell with respect to Mr. Johnsen's compensation). All equity awards are approved by our board. In connection with the offering, we plan to establish a compensation and nominating committee of our board who will oversee our executive compensation program going forward. The compensation and nominating committee, in consultation with Mr. Musk (other than with respect to his own compensation), will have primary responsibility for evaluating and approving the compensation of our NEOs or making recommendations regarding such compensation to our board when appropriate, including with respect to Mr. Musk's compensation. 9.3.4 Elements of Compensation 9.3.4.1 Base Salary Each NEO's base salary is a fixed component of compensation for perfoli_ling specific job duties and functions. Base salaries are generally reviewed on an annual basis, taking into account the NEO's experience and responsibilities. Mr. Musk's base salary of $54,080 has remained unchanged since 2019, and prior to our relocation to Texas in 2024 was tied to California's minimum salary for exempt employees. Mr. Musk has historically deteunined the base salary for Ms. Shotwell, which was increased from $1,040,000 to $1,080,000 effective April 20, 2025. Mr. Musk and Ms. Shotwell have historically deteunined the base salary for Mr. Johnsen, which was increased from $780,000 to $825,000 on April 6, 2025, with retroactive effect for the full 2025 Fiscal Year. As participants in a broader employee equity election program, our NEOs, other than Mr. Musk, were eligible to elect to forgo all or a portion of their base salary in exchange for restricted stock units ("RSUs") with the number of RSUs calculated based on the fair market value of the underlying Class C common stock on the date of the grant. Each RSU granted during 2025 (including as part of long-teen incentive compensation, as described below) represented the right to receive one share of Class C common stock at no cost to the holder. For the 2025 Fiscal Year, Ms. Shotwell received $353,077 of her base salary in cash and elected to forgo the remainder of her base salary of $726,923 in exchange for a grant of 19,650 RSUs that vested 50% on May 15, 2025 and 50% on November 15, 2025 (with the number of RSUs calculated based on the fair market value of the underlying Class C common stock on the date of the grant), and Mr. Johnsen elected to receive his base salary fully in cash. The base salaries paid to our NEOs reflect the only cash compensation that they are eligible to receive, as no NEO participates in an annual bonus program. 9.3.4.2 Long-Term Incentive Compensation In 2025, we granted long-teen incentive compensation under our 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2024 Plan"), which replaced our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2015 Plan") with respect to new grants; however, outstanding grants under the 2015 Plan remained outstanding and subject to the teens of the 2015 Plan, which are substantially similar to the terns of the 2024 Plan. The 2024 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 365,950,000 shares of Class C common stock thereunder pursuant to stock options (which may be either incentive stock options or nonstatutory stock options), RSUs, and other equity awards, in each case, on the teens deteunined by our board. It is expected that, in connection with and following the completion of the offering, all outstanding awards under the 2015 Plan and the 2024 Plan will remain outstanding and continue to be subject to their existing terns; however, awards in respect of Class C common stock will be converted into awards in respect of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis as part of the Class C Reclassification. It is expected that the 2024 Plan will be amended and restated in connection with the offering, as described below. Given his significant ownership interest in our Company, Mr. Musk was not granted any annual long- teun incentive compensation in 2025, and generally does not participate in our annual long-teen incentive compensation program. However, as part of our efforts to further incentivize Mr. Musk to achieve our long-teen business objectives, the board granted him a perfounance-based award of restricted shares of Class B common stock in January 2026, as described further under "9.3.5.1 2026 Compensation Developments" below. Ms. Shotwell was eligible to participate in our long-teen incentive election program with a target award of $5 million, pursuant to which she could elect to receive 20% of her target award in cash or RSUs that vest after six months and 80% of her target award in cash vesting over five years, RSUs vesting over five years or stock -208- f rm ’ ’ ’ rm ’ ’ i ’ rm rm “ ” rm rm “ ” “ ” rm m rm rm m rm rm rm rm “ ” rm


 
options vesting over six years. In accordance with her elections, on May 10, 2025, our board granted Ms. Shotwell 27,030 RSUs, representing $1 million of her target award (based on the fair market value of a share of Class C common stock on the grant date), that vested on November 15, 2025 and stock options to purchase 324,325 shares of Class C common stock, representing $4 million of her target award, which vest as to 12.5% on May 15, 2027 and monthly thereafter in equal installments through November 15, 2030, in each case, subject to Ms. Shotwell's continued employment with us through the applicable vesting date. Because Mr. Johnsen held outstanding stock options tied to aggressive perfou lance milestones, a portion of which were adjusted in 2026 as described further under "9.3.5.1 2026 Compensation Developments" below, he was not eligible to participate in the long-teen incentive election program described above. Instead, Mr. Johnsen's long-teen incentive award for the 2025 Fiscal Year consisted exclusively of stock options to purchase 324,325 shares of Class C common stock, which was granted by our board on May 10, 2025. These stock options vest as to 40% in equal monthly installments from January 1, 2027 through December 1, 2027 and as to 60% in equal monthly installments from January 1, 2028 through December 1, 2030, in each case, subject to Mr. Johnsen's continued employment with us through the applicable vesting date. On October 20, 2025, as a special equity grant intended to further promote their retention, reward their individual performance, and encourage efforts to continue growing the Company, our board granted Ms. Shotwell stock options to purchase 3,537,740 shares of Class C common stock and granted Mr. Johnsen stock options to purchase 141,510 shares of Class C common stock. These special stock options vest as to 20% on September 30, 2027 and monthly thereafter in equal installments through September 30, 2031, in each case, subject to the NEO's continued employment with us through the applicable vesting date. 9.3.4.3 Other Elements of Compensation 9.3.4.3.1 Retirement Benefits All of our U.S. employees, including our NEOs, are eligible to participate in our 401(k) plan, which is a broad-based, tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan. Under the 401(k) plan, we may make discretionary matching and non-elective contributions, subject to certain limits under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and such contributions would vest ratably and would be 100% vested after five years of credited service; however, no such company contributions were made for 2025. 9.3.4.3.2 Employee Stock Purchase Plans Historically, we have provided two employee stock purchase plans in which all of our U.S. employees, including the NEOs, are eligible to participate. Our Amended and Restated 2017 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "2017 ESPP") is intended to qualify under Section 423 of the Code and allows eligible employees to purchase shares of Class C common stock using accumulated payroll contributions at a discount. It is expected that the 2017 ESPP will be amended and restated in connection with the offering, as described below. Our 2023 Non- Qualified ESPP (the "NQ ESPP") is not intended to qualify under Section 423 of the Code and allows eligible employees to purchase shares of Class C common stock using accumulated payroll contributions at fair market value. Our NQ ESPP will be discontinued in connection with the offering. 9.3.4.3.3 Perquisites The Company provides security equipment to enhance security at Ms. Shotwell's personal residence. The aggregate incremental cost of these security benefits are reported in the "9.3.6.1 2025 Summary Compensation Table" below. No other material perquisites are provided to our NEOs. 9.3.5 Other Matters 9.3.5.1 2026 Compensation Developments On January 13, 2026, our board approved the grant of 1 billion perfoli_lance-based restricted shares of Class B common stock to Mr. Musk. The restricted shares vest upon (i) our achievement of specified market capitalization milestones across 15 equal tranches and (ii) the Company's establishment of a permanent human colony on Mars with at least one million inhabitants, in each case, subject to Mr. Musk's continued employment with us through the date on which achievement is certified by our board. Mr. Musk has the right to vote all of these perfoimance-based restricted shares of Class B common stock that remain outstanding. For any tranche of the award to vest, both the applicable market capitalization milestone for such tranche and the human colony milestone must be met. In connection with the xAI Merger that closed on February 2, 2026, the market -209- ll’ rm “ ” rm ’ rm ’ ’ “ ” “ ” “ ” ll’ “ ” rm ’ ’ r


 
capitalization milestones were equitably adjusted in accordance with the teens of the award agreement to the following: Restricted Shares Subject to Tranche Market Capitalization Milestone 66,666,665 $ 500,000,000,000 66,666,665 $ 1,000,000,000,000 66,666,665 $ 1,500,000,000,000 66,666,665 $ 2,000,000,000,000 66,666,665 $ 2,500,000,000,000 66,666,665 $ 3,000,000,000,000 66,666,665 $ 3,500,000,000,000 66,666,665 $ 4,000,000,000,000 66,666,665 $ 4,500,000,000,000 66,666,665 $ 5,000,000,000,000 66,666,670 $ 5,500,000,000,000 66,666,670 $ 6,000,000,000,000 66,666,670 $ 6,500,000,000,000 66,666,670 $ 7,000,000,000,000 66,666,670 $ 7,500,000,000,000 In connection with the xAI Merger, we also assumed a perfoi lance stock award originally granted to Mr. Musk by xAI on November 26, 2025. In accordance with the teens of that award agreement, the award was adjusted to account for the xAI Merger and, following such adjustment, reflected Mr. Musk's right to receive shares of our Class A common stock equal to 0.20% of the fully diluted capitalization of the Company upon achievement of each of 12 valuation milestones ranging from $1.065 trillion to $6.565 trillion, with each milestone reflecting $500 billion in additional valuation, in each case, subject to Mr. Musk's continued employment with us. The first valuation milestone was achieved prior to the xAI Merger, and Mr. Musk was issued 25,172,695 shares of our Class A common stock in settlement of that portion of the award. On March 23, 2026, this award and the 25,172,695 shares earned upon achievement of the first valuation milestone were cancelled and replaced with a grant of 302,072,285 performance-based restricted shares of Class B common stock, which vest upon both (i) achievement of specified market capitalization milestones across 12 equal tranches ranging from $1.065 trillion to $6.565 trillion, with each milestone reflecting $500 billion in additional valuation, and (ii) the Company's completion of non-Earth-based data centers capable of delivering 100 terawatts of compute per year, in each case, subject to Mr. Musk's continued employment with us through the date on which achievement is certified by our board. Mr. Musk has the right to vote all of these perfounance-based restricted shares of Class B common stock that remain outstanding. On January 4, 2026, our board approved an amendment to Mr. Johnsen's 4 million perfo ance-based stock options originally granted in 2024. In lieu of vesting based on free cash flow achievement in excess of a baseline, 371,125 of the stock options will vest for each $10 billion in adjusted EBITDA achieved during the 2025 through 2029 fiscal years, assessed on an annual basis. For purposes of this award, adjusted EBITDA is calculated as income from operations excluding (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) share-based compensation, (iii) impaiunent, and (iv) restructuring impacts. Once a tranche of the stock options have become earned as a result of our adjusted EBITDA performance as of the end of a particular fiscal year, such stock options remain subject to an additional one-year and one day service-based vesting requirement following December 31 of the fiscal year in which such tranche was earned. None of the stock options became earned on account of our 2025 Fiscal Year adjusted EBITDA performance. 9.3.5.2 Clawback Policy In connection with the offering, we will adopt a compensation recoupment (clawback) policy that complies with Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas listing standards implementing Rule 10D-1 of the Exchange Act. -210- rm ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... ............................................................................................................... rm rm ’ ’ ’ ’ rm ’ rm rm

We refer to these collectively herein as "Awards."

Documents Available for Inspection").

in our capitalization. Shares of Class A common stock issued under the A&R 2024 Plan may be authorized but unissued or reacquired shares, including shares repurchased by the Company on the open market or otherwise. Shares of Class A common stock subject to any award under our 2012 Equity Incentive Plan or the 2015 Plan that expires, terminates or is forfeited or that are reacquired, withheld or not issued to satisfy a tax withholding obligation will be added to the Share Reserve. Shares of Class A common stock subject to any award under the A&R 2024 Plan that expires, terminates or is forfeited or that are reacquired, withheld or not issued to satisfy a tax withholding obligation or payment of an exercise price will be again be available for issuance under the A&R 2024 Plan. 9.3.8.3 Eligibility Current or prospective employees, non-employee directors and consultants of the Company and its affiliates will be eligible to participate in the A&R 2024 Plan. 9.3.8.4 Types of Awards Stock Options. Stock options granted under the A&R 2024 Plan may be granted as incentive stock options or nonstatutory stock options, in either case with a term not to exceed 10 years (or five years for incentive stock options granted to 10% shareholders). Subject to the express provisions of the A&R 2024 Plan, stock options generally may be exercised over such period, in installments or otherwise, as the Plan Administrator may determine. The exercise price for any stock option granted may not generally be less than the fair market value of the Class A common stock subject to that option on the grant date (or 110% of the fair market value for incentive stock options granted to 10% shareholders). The exercise price may be paid in cash or such other method as determined by the Plan Administrator, including an irrevocable commitment by a broker to pay over such amount from a sale of the shares issuable under an option, the delivery of previously owned shares, or withholding of shares deliverable upon exercise. Stock Appreciation Rights. SARs represent, upon exercise, the right to receive the amount by which the fair market value of the Class A common stock at the time of exercise exceeds the exercise price of the SAR. This amount is payable in Class A common stock, cash, or a combination thereof, or in any other form of consideration at the Plan Administrator's discretion. The exercise price for any SARs may not generally be less than the fair market value of the Class A common stock subject to the SAR on the grant date and may not have a term in excess of 10 years. Restricted Stock and RSUs. Awards of restricted stock consist of shares of stock that are transferred to the participant subject to restrictions that may result in forfeiture if specified conditions are not satisfied. RSUs result in the transfer of shares of Class A common stock, cash or other form of consideration to the participant only after specified conditions are satisfied. The Plan Administrator will determine the restrictions and conditions applicable to each award of restricted stock or RSUs, which may include performance vesting conditions. Other Equity Awards. Other equity awards are Awards valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based, on Class A common stock, including the appreciation in value thereof. Other equity awards may be granted either alone or in tandem with other Awards under the A&R 2024 Plan. 9.3.8.5 Performance Criteria The Plan Administrator may specify certain performance criteria which must be satisfied before Awards will be granted or will vest. The performance goals may vary from participant to participant, group to group, and period to period. 9.3.8.6 Transferability Except as otherwise permitted by the Plan Administrator, Awards generally are not transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and each stock option or SAR will be exercisable during the lifetime of the participant only by the participant. 9.3.8.7 Claw back Awards will be subject to recoupment in accordance with any clawback policy that we adopt, including any clawback policy required under Rule 10D-1 of the Exchange Act. -215- tr t r’ f


 
9.3.8.8 Amendment and Termination The Plan Administrator may amend, suspend or terminate the A&R 2024 Plan at any time; however certain enumerated material amendments may not be made without shareholder approval. Suspension or termination of the A&R 2024 Plan may not impair the rights and obligations of any outstanding Award. The Plan Administrator may also amend any outstanding Award, subject to the participant's consent in the event such amendment impairs such participant's rights under such Award. The A&R 2024 Plan is expected to be adopted by our board in connection with the offering and will terminate on December 10, 2034, unless earlier terminated by our board. 9.3.9 Second Amended and Restated 2017 Employee Stock Purchase Plan In connection with the offering, we intend to further amend and restated our 2017 ESPP ("A&R 2017 ESPP"). The purpose of the A&R 2017 ESPP is to encourage and enable our eligible employees to acquire a proprietary interest in us through the ownership of our Class A common stock. The A&R 2017 ESPP, and the rights of participants to make purchases thereunder, is intended to qualify under the provisions of Section 423 of the Code. The following description of the A&R 2017 ESPP is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the A&R 2017 ESPP (please refer to "13. Documents Available for Inspection"). Please read the A&R 2017 ESPP in its entirety. 9.3.9.1 Administration The A&R 2017 ESPP will be administered by our board or a committee thereof designated by our board to administer the A&R 2017 ESPP, which we refer to herein as the "ESPP Administrator." The ESPP Administrator has the final power to determine all questions of policy and expediency that may arise in the administration of the A&R 2017 ESPP. The ESPP Administrator may delegate its responsibilities under the A&R 2017 ESPP to one or more other persons. 9.3.9.2 Stock Subject to A&R 2017 ESPP The maximum number of shares of Class A common stock that may be issued under the A&R 2017 ESPP will not exceed 75,000,000 shares (the "ESPP Share Pool"), inclusive of shares issued under the 2017 ESPP prior to the adoption of the A&R 2017 ESPP. The ESPP Share Pool is subject to certain adjustments in the event of a change in our capitalization. Shares of Class A common stock issued under the A&R 2017 ESPP may be either authorized and unissued shares or previously issued shares acquired by us. A participant does not have the rights of a shareholder until the shares are actually issued to the participant. 9.3.9.3 Eligibility; Limitations An employee is eligible to participate in the A&R 2017 ESPP if the employee has been continuously employed by us our one of our related corporations incorporated in the United States since at least the last day of the calendar month preceding the month in which the offering date occurs and does not own 5% or more of the combined voting power of the Company or any related corporations (as determined under Section 423 and 424 of the Code). Eligible employees must enroll in a particular offering at least 10 business days prior to the offering date of such offering, and once enrolled for an offering, employees will be automatically enrolled in subsequent offerings unless the employee withdraws. A participant is not permitted to purchase shares of our Class A common stock with a fair market value in excess of $25,000 in any one calendar year (calculated based on the fair market value on the offering date). 9.3.9.4 Offerings The offerings and purchase periods will be determined by the ESPP Administrator, subject to limitations under the Section 423 of the Code. It is expected that we will continue six-month successive purchase periods with purchase dates occurring on April 15th and October 15th of each year. During the purchase period, a participant may contribute between 1% and 100% of their eligible earnings (in whole percentage increments) through payroll deductions. A participant may change their payroll deduction prior to the beginning of an offering; however, during an offering, a participant may not increase the contribution percentage and may only decrease it up to two times (with the second decrease required to be to 0%), subject to -216- t’ i t’ “ ” “ f ” i “ i istr ” “ ”


 
the withdrawal provisions. At the end of each offering period, unless the participant has withdrawn from the A&R 2017 ESPP, payroll deductions are applied automatically to purchase shares of Class A common stock at the purchase price described below. The number of shares purchased is detelinined by dividing the payroll deductions by the applicable purchase price, with any remaining funds held in the participant's account for the subsequent purchase period (subject to the withdrawal provisions). In the event of a participant's teunination of employment or a participant's withdrawal from an offering (which may occur at any time prior to the ten-business day period preceding the purchase date), such participant's accumulated deductions will be returned to the participant as soon as administratively practicable. 9.3.9.5 Purchase Price The price per share at which shares are purchased under the A&R 2017 ESPP in a particular offering period is detelinined by the ESPP Administrator, but in no event will be less than 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the Class A common stock on the offering date or the fair market value of the Class A common stock on the purchase date. 9.3.9.6 Adjustments In the event of any reorganizations, recapitalizations, stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, extraordinary dividends or distributions, or similar events, the ESPP Administrator will appropriately adjust the number and class of shares available under the A&R 2017 ESPP and subject to the purchase limits under each ongoing offering and the applicable purchase price of such shares in each ongoing offering. 9.3.9.7 Transferability Rights to purchase Class A common stock under the A&R 2017 ESPP may not be transferred by a participant and may be exercised during a participant's lifetime only by the participant. 9.3.9.8 Amendment and Termination The A&R 2017 ESPP will become effective when it is approved by our board. Our board may amend, alter, or discontinue the A&R 2017 ESPP in any respect at any time, subject to shareholder approval as required by applicable laws and regulations. 9.3.10 Director Compensation During 2025, our non-employee directors did not receive cash or equity compensation for their service on our board. All of our non-management directors qualify as non-employee directors. Mr. Musk and Ms. Shotwell do not receive any additional compensation for their respective services as directors. 9.4 Stock Issued Under Employee Plans We intend to file a registration statement on Foil' S-8 under the U.S. Securities Act to register stock issuable under our A&R 2024 Plan and A&R 2017 ESPP and to register stock issuable pursuant to outstanding awards under our other Equity Plans. This registration statement on Form S-8 is expected to be filed following the effective date of the Company's registration statement on Foul' S-1 filed with the SEC and will be effective immediately upon filing.

(8) The amounts in the table with respect to Class A Common Stock do not include the shares of Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by the persons listed therein. Each share of Class B common stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into one share of our Class A common stock. In addition, subject to certain exceptions, each share of Class B common stock will convert automatically into one share of Class A common stock upon any sale of such share of Class B common stock or any legal or beneficial interest in such share, as described in "7.1.1.5 Conversion." Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC, which generally attribute ownership to persons who have or share voting or investment power with respect to the relevant securities. Shares of Class A Common Stock that may be acquired within 60 days upon conversion of outstanding Class B Common Stock are deemed to be beneficially owned. Securities not outstanding, but included in the beneficial ownership of each such person, are deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of outstanding securities of the class owned by such person, but are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of the class(es) of securities owned by any other person. Except as indicated in these footnotes, and subject to community property laws where applicable, the persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all securities shown as beneficially owned by them. Moreover, as described in "7.1.1.1 Voting Rights," subject to the terms of our charter, each holder of our Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share, and each holder of our Class B common stock is entitled to ten votes per share. Holders of our Class B common stock, voting separately as a class, are entitled to elect 51% of the total number of authorized directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number). As of the date of this Prospectus, Elon Musk holds 12.2% of the Class A common stock and 93.3% of the Class B common stock of the Company. As a result, Elon Musk holds 84.3% of the voting rights of the Company. Except as set out in the table above, there is no person who, directly or indirectly, has a beneficial ownership interest in the Company or voting rights which is notifiable under applicable laws. 11.2.2 Controlling Interest Upon completion of the global offering and assuming sale of all base shares, Mr. Musk will hold approximately 91.6% of our outstanding Class B common stock, which under our charter, as described under "7.1 Description of Capital Stock," will be entitled to elect 51% of the total number of authorized directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number), and 83.6% of the total voting power of our outstanding common stock (or 83.5% if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of Class A common stock in full). As a result, we will be a "controlled company" within the meaning of Nasdaq corporate governance standards. Under Nasdaq rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power with respect to director elections is held by another person or group of persons acting together is a "controlled company" and may elect not to comply with certain Nasdaq corporate governance requirements, including the requirements that: • a majority of such company's board of directors consist of independent directors as defined under the rules of Nasdaq; • director nominees be selected or recommended for board of directors' selection by a nominating committee composed entirely of independent directors, with a written charter addressing the nominations process as required under the applicable listing exchange rules; • the compensation committee be composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee's purpose and responsibilities; and • annual performance evaluations of the compensation and nominating committees be conducted. Following the completion of the global offering, we intend to utilize certain of these exemptions. As a result, we do not expect to have a compensation or nominating committee that are composed entirely of independent directors or that have committee charters that address all of Nasdaq requirements. Additionally, we may elect to take advantage of certain other exemptions in the future for as long as we remain a "controlled company." Accordingly, our shareholders will not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq. In the event that we cease to be a "controlled company" and our shares continue to be listed on Nasdaq, we will be required to comply with all of the applicable governance requirements within the applicable transition periods. Generally, under Texas law, controlling shareholders owe fiduciary duties to the corporation, and these duties include the duty of care, the duty of loyalty, and the duty of obedience. The duty of care requires acting with the care that an ordinarily prudent person would exercise under similar circumstances. The duty of loyalty requires acting in good faith and in the best interests of the corporation. The duty of obedience requires acting in accordance with the corporation's governing documents. -222- (8) “ ” “ . ti ” “ ” “ ” “ ” ’ ’ tt ’ “ ” “ ” i ’


 
11.3 Anti-takeover Effects of Provisions of Our Charter, our Bylaws and Texas Law Some provisions of Texas law, and our charter and our bylaws contain provisions that could make the following transactions more difficult: acquisitions of us by means of a tender offer, a proxy contest or otherwise; or removal of our incumbent officers and directors. These provisions may also have the effect of preventing changes in our management. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish or could deter transactions that shareholders may otherwise consider to be in their best interest or in our best interests, including transactions that might result in a premium over the market price for our shares of Class A common stock. These provisions, as summarized below, are expected to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with us. We believe that the benefits of increased protection and our potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure us outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging these proposals because, among other things, negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their teens. 11.3.1 Anti-takeover Statute under Texas law We will be subject to Section 21.606 of the TBOC, which in general, prohibits a publicly held Texas corporation, like the Company after the completion of the offering, from engaging, under certain circumstances, in a business combination with an affiliated shareholder (as defined in the TBOC) for a period of three years following the date the person became an affiliated shareholder unless: • the board approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the shareholder becoming an affiliated shareholder before the affiliated shareholder's share acquisition date; or • at or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by the board and authorized at an annual or special meeting of shareholders, and not by written consent, by the affiiinative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting shares not beneficially owned by the affiliated shareholder or any of its affiliates or associates at a meeting of shareholders called for that purpose not less than six months after the affiliated shareholder's share acquisition date. 11.3.2 Provisions of Our Charter and our Bylaws that May Have an Anti-takeover Effect 11.3.2.1 Election of Class B Directors As discussed above, our charter will provide that holders of our Class B common stock, voting separately as a class, are entitled to elect 51% of the total number of authorized directors (rounded up to the nearest whole number). Upon completion of the global offering and assuming sale of all base shares, Mr. Musk will beneficially own 849,494,440 shares of our Class A common stock and 5,569,053,075 shares of our Class B common stock (including 350,000,000 shares of Class B Common stock underlying options), representing approximately 84.4% of the combined voting power of our outstanding shares of voting common stock. As the holder of a majority of our outstanding shares of Class B common stock, Mr. Musk will be able to elect, remove or fill any vacancy among the Class B Directors. As a result, Mr. Musk will have the power to control the outcome of matters requiring shareholder approval, including election of the board, and our business and affairs. This may have the effect of deferring, delaying or discouraging hostile takeovers, or changes in control or management, of the Company. 11.3.2.2 No Cumulative Voting Our charter will not peunit cumulative voting in the election of directors. 11.3.2.3 Special Meetings of Shareholders Our charter will provide that special meetings of shareholders may be called by the chaiii_Ian of the board, the chief executive officer, the president (to the extent required by the TBOC), our board, our founder or by shareholders holding not less than 50% (or the highest percentage of ownership that may be set under the TBOC) of the Company's then outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote on the proposed action at the meeting. -223- rm l r’ rm r’ ti rm rm ’


 
11.3.2.4 Shareholder Action by Written Consent Our charter will provide that any action required to be taken at any annual or special meeting of the shareholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares of stock entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. Our charter will also provide that any action required or permitted to be taken by the holders of Class B common stock, voting separately as a class, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding Class B common stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares of Class B common stock entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. 11.3.2.5 Requirements for Advance Notification of Shareholder Meetings, Nominations and Proposals Our bylaws will establish advance notice procedures with respect to shareholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as a director. In order for any matter to be "properly brought" before a meeting, a shareholder (other than Mr. Musk and his peunitted transferees) must comply with such advance notice procedures and provide us with certain infounation. Section 21.373 of the TBOC peunits a "nationally listed corporation" to amend its governing documents to elect to impose stock ownership requirements on shareholders seeking to submit a proposal on a matter (other than director nominations and procedural resolutions ancillary to the conduct of a shareholder meeting) to the shareholders of such corporation for approval at a shareholder meeting. If a "nationally listed corporation" elects to be governed by Section 21.373 of the TBOC, a shareholder or group of shareholders may submit a proposal on a matter to the shareholders of such corporation for approval at a meeting of shareholders only if such shareholder or group of shareholders (i) holds an amount of voting shares (detelinined as of the date of submission of the proposal) equal to at least $1,000,000 in market value or 3% of the corporation's voting shares, and (ii) holds such amount for a continuous period of at least six months before the date of the meeting and throughout the entire duration of the meeting and (iii) solicits the holders of shares representing at least 67% of the voting power of shares entitled to vote on the proposal at the shareholder meeting. For the purpose of this paragraph, "voting shares" means shares that entitle the holder of the shares to vote on the proposal. Our bylaws will adopt these requirements for submitting a shareholder proposal to go into effect immediately upon the completion of the offering, when we will qualify as a "nationally listed corporation." 11.3.2.6 Authorized but Unissued Shares As mentioned above, our authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock will generally be available for future issuance without the approval of our shareholders. The TBOC does not require shareholder approval for any issuance of authorized shares. However, Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas listing requirements require shareholder approval of certain issuances equal to or exceeding 20% of the then-outstanding voting power or the then-outstanding number of shares of common stock. We may issue additional shares for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee benefit plans. For more infounation please refer to Note 13, Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Shareholders' Equity, in our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements 11.4 Material Contracts For more infounation on our material contracts, please refer to "5.11.1 Debt Agreements", "5.11.3 Material Cash Commitments", and "9.3.9 Second Amended and Restated 2017 Employee Stock Purchase Plan". 11.5 Legal and Arbitration Proceedings We are subject to claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. During the twelve- month period prior to the date of this prospectus, there were no governmental, legal or arbitration proceedings (including pending or threatened proceedings that we are aware of), which may have, or have had in the recent past, a significant effect on the financial position or profitability of the Company or SpaceX Group other than the following cases: In December 2023, the European Commission opened a foil_'al investigation into X and its Irish subsidiary, X Internet Unlimited Company ("XIUC"), regarding alleged breaches of the DSA relating to deceptive design of the blue checkmark verification system, deficiencies in X's advertisement repository, and inadequate -224- r f “ ” rm rm rm “ ” “ ” rm ti ’ “ ” “ ” rm ’ rm “ ” “ ” “ ” i rm “ ” ’


 
data access for third-party researchers. On December 5, 2025, the European Commission issued a final decision upholding its preliminary findings and imposing a fine of €120 million on XIUC, X, x.AI, and Elon Musk. On February 16, 2026, the parties challenged the decision before the General Court of the European Union. The challenge remains pending. In March 2016, a non-practicing entity filed a patent infringement suit against Twitter, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas concerning video-sharing patents. Following extended proceedings, the case went to jury trial, and on April 16, 2025 the jury found that Twitter willfully infringed one patent claim and awarded $105 million in damages. In November 2025, the court affirmed the award and granted an additional $67 million in prejudgment interest. Twitter has appealed and the plaintiff has cross-appealed. Both appeals remain pending before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. In June 2023, members of the National Music Publishers' Association filed a copyright infringement complaint against X in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, alleging that X failed to expeditiously remove infringing music posted by users and to suspend the accounts of repeat infringers. The court dismissed the direct and vicarious infringement claims, and part of the contributory infringement claim. Settlement discussions during a litigation stay from June to September 2025 were unsuccessful. Fact discovery is now closed. On April 1, 2026, the court granted a stay to allow X to file a renewed motion to dismiss based on the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Cox Communications, Inc. v. Sony Music Entertainment. The music publishers have a deadline of May 11, 2026 to amend their remaining contributory infringement claims, with X's renewed motion to dismiss due by June 11, 2026. In September 2023, Stichting Data Bescherming Nederland ("SDBN") filed a putative class action in the District Court of Amsterdam against various X group entities, alleging that Twitter's MoPub real-time bidding ad exchange violated the GDPR. SDBN claims to represent approximately eleven million Dutch internet users and seeks monetary damages in the range of €250 to €2,500 per person. On February 4, 2026, the court declined to allow the case to proceed as a class action and indicated that it is considering staying the proceedings pending a ruling by the Court of Justice of the European Union in a related matter. The Twitter parties filed a brief in support of the proposed stay, which plaintiffs opposed on March 4, 2026 In August 2024, Stichting Onderzoek Marktinformatie ("SOMI") initiated a collective action in the District Court of Amsterdam on behalf of approximately 7.8 million Dutch X users, seeking damages against various X group entities for alleged data breaches and insufficient security measures, alleged unauthorized microtargeting and lack of transparency, and alleged failure to moderate hate speech, in each case in alleged violation of the GDPR and/or the DSA. The alleged data breaches relate to a Twitter API vulnerability that came to light in 2022. SOMI seeks compensation to be assessed at a later stage, including symbolic damages for affected class members. The hearing took place on April 2, 2026. The court handed down its decision on May 27, 2026. The court determined that SOMI satisfies most admissibility requirements but held that it was unable to establish that SOMI meets the financial safeguard requirements under Dutch law. The court therefore ordered SOMI to provide further information about its financing arrangements by June 24, 2026. In September 2025, non-practicing entity Search and Share Technologies, LLC filed a patent infringement complaint against X Corp. in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, alleging infringement of two U.S. patents through features in X's mobile app and website enabling users to interact with and share content in ranked feeds and search results. X Corp. has moved to partially dismiss the complaint and has filed inter partes review petitions challenging both asserted patents. The proceedings remain at an early stage. Beginning in January 2026, the Company and certain subsidiaries have been named as defendants in multiple lawsuits alleging that Grok's image-generation and editing features enabled the creation and dissemination of nonconsensual explicit imagery. These include two putative class actions filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California asserting claims including strict liability, negligence, and privacy violations, and a case filed in Baltimore City Circuit Court asserting claims under Baltimore's Consumer Protection Ordinances. The plaintiffs seek, among other things, compensatory, statutory, and punitive damages, as well as injunctive relief. On April 14, 2026, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the NAACP Mississippi State Conference (together, the "NAACP") filed suit against X.AI Corp. and MZX Tech, LLC alleging that the mobile gas turbines powering the COLOSSUS II data center with the permission of the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality are in violation of the Clean Air Act because they allegedly constitute stationary sources without the proper permits. On May 6, 2026, the NAACP filed a preliminary -225- ’ t’ i ’ “ ” itt r’ “ ” ’ ’ r ’ “ ”


 
injunction motion seeking to enjoin the operation of the turbines. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously in these actions. For more infounation on these legal proceedings, please refer to Note 17, Commitments and Contingencies, of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 16, Commitments and Contingencies, of our Unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. 11.6 Board of Directors' Conflicts of Interest and Lock-Up of Executive Officers and Directors Mr. Musk serves in leadership and ownership capacities at several other companies, including Tesla, Inc., Neuralink Corp., and The Boring Company. Although Mr. Musk devotes significant time to our businesses and is highly active in our management, he does not devote his full time and attention to our businesses and devotes time and attention to other significant roles (and may in the future serve additional roles). Conflicts of interest could also arise between us, on the one hand, and Mr. Musk and these and other entities owned by or affiliated with him, on the other hand, now or in the future concerning among other things, business transactions, potential competitive business activities or other opportunities. In the nounal course of business, we have engaged in a variety of transactions with some of these companies. In addition, we have previously engaged, are currently engaged, and expect to continue to engage in the future in a number of strategic collaborations with Tesla, including with respect to Macrohard and Terafab. For more infounation, please refer to "1.5.1 Conflicts of interest could arise in the future between us, on the one hand, and Mr. Musk and entities owned by or affiliated with him, on the other hand, concerning among other things, business transactions, potential competitive activities or other business opportunities."

Certain amounts presented below that may have been incurred in one year could be paid in another year. • SpaceX commercial, licensing and support agreements. We are party with Tesla to certain agreements which generally relate to commercial, licensing, and support agreements and standardized commercial transactions with Tesla done on terms no less favorable to SpaceX than those generally available to unaffiliated third parties under similar circumstances. Pursuant to those agreements, we obtained goods and services of $11 million in 2023, $4 million in 2024, $147 million in 2025, and $4.0 million from January 1, 2026 through April 30, 2026. • xAI commercial, licensing and support agreements. xAI is party to certain commercial, licensing, and support agreements with Tesla.

Certain subsidiaries of xAI, have entered into certain equipment lease, sublease, and access agreements with Valor. These arrangements include (i) an equipment lease agreement under which a subsidiary of xAI leases computing and related equipment from Valor, which provides for aggregate cash payments of $6,986 million to be made by such subsidiary over the life of the lease, (ii) a second equipment lease agreement under which such subsidiary leases certain computing and related equipment from Valor, which provides for aggregate cash payments of $6,633 million to be made by such subsidiary over the life of the lease, and (iii) a third equipment lease under which such subsidiary leases certain computing and related equipment from Valor, which provides for aggregate cash payments of $6,587 million to be made by such subsidiary over the life of the lease.

In connection with certain X API services, X received payments from Valor of $1 million in 2024, $1 million in 2025, and $0.1 million from January 1, 2026 through April 30, 2026. 11.7.4 Other Transactions with our Directors and Executive Officers We own and operate, through our subsidiary, Falcon Landing, LLC, three aircraft for use by our directors, executive officers and employees in connection with the perfounance of their duties for business purposes. One of the aircraft is maintained and serviced by Craft Aviation Services, LLC, an affiliate of Mr. Musk.

As disclosed above, we have also invoiced Tesla for their use of one of the aircraft owned and operated by us at rates deteunined by Tesla and SpaceX, subject to rules of the FAA governing such arrangements. In certain circumstances, when our aircraft are unavailable, Mr. Musk uses his personal aircraft for SpaceX business purposes and is reimbursed by us, subject to rules of the FAA governing such arrangements. In connection with the use of such aircraft, SpaceX has incurred expenses of $0.1 million in 2023, $3 million in 2024, $2 million in 2025, and $0.2 million from January 1, 2026 through April 30, 2026. Ms. Shotwell, our President, Chief Operating Officer and Director, and Mr. Johnsen, our Chief Financial Officer, separately co-own an aircraft for their personal use. In certain circumstances, when none of our aircraft are available for business use, our directors and employees, including Ms. Shotwell and Mr. Johnsen, have used this aircraft for SpaceX business purposes. Any leasing fees for the use of such aircraft for our business purposes have been waived by the owners, and we have agreed to assume the cost of maintenance, crew and operation of such aircraft for such use, subject to rules of the FAA governing such arrangements. In connection with the use of this aircraft, SpaceX has incurred expenses of $3 million in 2023, $3 million in 2024, $3 million in 2025, and $1 million from January 1, 2026 through April 30, 2026. 11.7.5 Investors' Rights Agreement Certain existing investors in our equity securities, including entities affiliated with Elon Musk, Google, Valor, and DFJ Growth, are party to an Amended and Restated Investors' Rights Agreement, dated as of August 4, 2020 (the "Investors' Rights Agreement"). Under the Investors' Rights Agreement, such existing investors are entitled to registration rights with respect to shares of our Class A common stock beneficially owned by them (collectively, the "Registrable Securities"). These registration rights, if exercised, would require us to register such existing investors' Registrable Securities under the U.S. Securities Act, and would facilitate the resale of such securities by such existing investors into the public markets. We will pay all registration expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, associated with registrations effected pursuant to the Investors' Rights Agreement, subject to limited exceptions. 11.7.5.1 Demand Registration Rights At any time commencing six months after the effective date of the first registration statement for a public offering of our securities (other than a registration on certain registration foul's or for transactions not providing for the sale of Registrable Securities), such holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Registrable Securities, excluding for this purpose shares issuable or issued upon conversion of certain series of our preferred stock, may request that we file a registration statement within 60 days after receipt of the request covering the offer and sale of Registrable Securities, provided that, among other things, the anticipated aggregate offering price, net of underwriting discounts and selling expenses, exceeds $250.0 million. Further, the initiating holders may require -228- ’ rm rm rm t r ’ ’ “ t ’ ” ’ “ i ” ’ ’ rm ‑


 
that such registration be an underwritten offering, in which case the underwriter will be selected by a majority in interest of the initiating holders, subject to our reasonable approval. 11.7.5.2 Piggyback Registration Rights If we propose to register any of our securities under the U.S. Securities Act for sale to the public for cash (other than on certain registration foul's or for transactions that do not pelinit piggyback participation), we must promptly give each holder of Registrable Securities notice of such proposed registration and, upon timely request, cause to be registered all Registrable Securities that such holder requests to be included, subject to any cutbacks, as permitted by the agreement. 11.7.6 Policies and Procedures for Review of Related Person Transactions In connection with the completion of the offering, we will adopt a written policy pursuant to which the audit committee will review and approve or disapprove certain "related person transactions" (as defined in the policy and summarized below) with our directors, executive officers and holders of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities and certain of their family members and affiliates. In approving or disapproving any such transaction, we expect that our audit committee will consider the relevant facts and circumstances available and deemed relevant to the audit committee. Any member of the audit committee who is a related person with respect to a transaction under review will not be permitted to participate in the deliberations or vote on approval or disapproval of the transaction. In addition, certain transactions (including compensation arrangements with our executives and directors) will constitute pre-approved related person transactions under the teens of our policy. For purposes of the policy, (i) "related person transaction" is a transaction, arrangement or relationship in which we or any of our subsidiaries was, is or will be a participant, the amount of which involved exceeds $120,000, and in which any related person had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest; and (ii) "related person" means: (1) any person who is, or at any time during the applicable period was, one of our executive officers or one of our directors; (2) any person who is known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5.0% of any class of our common stock; and (3) any immediate family member of any of the foregoing persons, which means any child, stepchild, parent, stepparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son- in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law of a director, executive officer or a beneficial owner of more than 5.0% of any class of our common stock, and any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the household of such director, executive officer or beneficial owner of more than 5.0% of any class of our common stock. -229- rm rm f “ ” rm “ ” “ ”


 
12. DIVIDEND POLICY We do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends to holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the growth of our business. Our future dividend policy is within the discretion of our board and will depend upon then-existing conditions, including our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, investment opportunities, statutory restrictions on our ability to pay dividends, restrictions in our existing and any future debt agreements and other factors our board may deem relevant. Covenants under our Credit Agreements also restrict our ability to pay dividends, and we may enter into credit agreements or other borrowing arrangements in the future that restrict our ability to declare or pay cash dividends or make distributions in the future. Please refer to "5.11 Liquidity and Capital Resources" for a description of the restrictions on our ability to pay dividends. -230- “ ”

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Space Exploration Technologies Corp. Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Space Exploration Technologies Corp. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income (loss), of redeemable convertible preferred stock and shareholders' equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Change in Accounting Principle As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for digital assets in 2024. Basis for Opinion These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Significant Transactions with Related Parties As discussed in Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has entered into significant transactions with related parties. Critical Audit Matters The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. F-4


 
Revenue Recognition – Estimate of Total Cost at Completion for Certain Contracts Recognized Over Time As described in Notes 2 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognized revenue of $4.1 billion and $11.4 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025 within the Space and Connectivity segments, respectively, a portion of which related to contracts recognized over time using the cost-to-cost input method. Under the cost-to-cost input method, the Company records revenue based upon costs (such as materials and labor hours) incurred to date relative to the total estimated cost at completion. Developing the estimated total cost at completion for each performance obligation requires the use of significant management judgment, including assumptions regarding (i) launch timing, labor hours, allocation of shared costs for launch vehicles that have been identified as reusable for multiple launches, as well as expected technological changes to launch vehicles and spacecraft for Space contracts, and (ii) labor hours, allocation of shared costs used in the production of satellites, satellite material costs, as well as expected technological changes to satellites for Connectivity contracts. The Company recognizes changes in estimated contract revenue or costs at completion and the resulting changes in contract profit on a cumulative basis. The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to revenue recognition – estimate of total cost at completion for certain contracts recognized over time is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management in developing the estimate of total cost at completion, including significant judgments and assumptions on a contract by contract basis, and (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence related to management’s estimate of total cost at completion, including estimated labor hours. Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included, among others, (i) testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used by management related to actual costs to date, (ii) testing management’s process for developing the estimate of total cost at completion, including evaluating on a test basis, the reasonableness of certain significant judgments and assumptions considered by management specific to each contract, including estimated labor hours. Evaluating the significant judgments and assumptions related to the estimates of total cost at completion involved evaluating whether the significant judgments and assumptions used by management were reasonable considering (i) management’s historical forecasting accuracy; (ii) evidence to support the relevant aforementioned assumptions; (iii) the consistent application of accounting policies; and (iv) the timely identification of circumstances which may require a modification to a previous estimate. /s/PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP Los Angeles, California March 30, 2026, except for the effects of the reorganization of entities under common control and the effects of the stock split discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements and the change in reportable segments discussed in Note 19 to the consolidated financial statements, as to which the date is May 7, 2026 We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2012.

SPACE EXPLORATION TECHNOLOGIES CORP. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (tables in millions, except per share data) Note 1 - Nature of Business Description of Business Space Exploration Technologies Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, collectively referred to as the “Company” or “SpaceX,” operate three segments – (i) the Space segment designs, manufactures, and launches reusable rockets to provide high cadence, reliable, and affordable access to space at unprecedented scale, (ii) the Connectivity segment operates a worldwide high-speed, low-latency broadband network powered by thousands of Starlink satellites in Low-Earth Orbit, delivering connectivity to millions of consumer, enterprise, and government customers through our Starlink offering, and (iii) the AI segment operates a vertically integrated AI platform spanning a frontier LLM Grok, AI solutions for consumer and enterprise customers, X — a real-time information, entertainment, and free speech platform — and AI computational infrastructure. SpaceX is advancing the boundaries of space technology and human spaceflight through its Falcon launch vehicles and Dragon spacecraft and is currently developing Starship, a fully reusable transportation system that is designed to carry crew, cargo, satellites, and data centers to Earth orbit, the Moon, Mars, and beyond. SpaceX operates Starlink which delivers high-speed, low-latency broadband internet to customers around the globe, including to those who live in some of the most remote places on Earth. The Company also provides access to satellite-to-mobile texting and voice services to mobile users (referred to as “Starlink Mobile”). SpaceX operates a global platform for public conversation known as X (formerly known as Twitter) as well as the Grok suite of text and multi-modal AI models, accessible to individual users via online platforms such as x.com and to enterprise clients for applications in research, productivity, and decision-making. The Company’s corporate headquarters is located in Starbase, Texas. SpaceX was incorporated in the state of Delaware on March 14, 2002 and converted into a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Texas on February 14, 2024. On May 4, 2026, the Company effected a five-for-one forward stock split of its authorized, issued, and outstanding shares of Class A, Class B, and Class C Common Stock (“2026 Stock Split”). The conversion rate of SpaceX Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock was proportionately adjusted to factor in the 2026 Stock Split. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the 2026 Stock Split for all periods presented. On February 2, 2026, the Company completed its acquisition of X.AI Holdings Corp. (“xAI”), pursuant to which xAI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“xAI Merger”). Prior to the xAI Merger, on March 28, 2025, xAI completed its acquisition of X Holdings Corp. (“X”) and X.AI Corp., in which X and X.AI Corp. became wholly-owned subsidiaries of xAI (“X Merger”, and collectively with xAI Merger, “Mergers”). X.AI Corp began operations in March 2023 and Twitter, Inc. (“Twitter”) was acquired by Mr. Elon Musk in October 2022. The Mergers were each effected through a share exchange. The Mergers have been accounted for as reorganizations of entities under common control as Mr. Elon Musk had a controlling financial interest in the Company, xAI and X through his majority voting interest in each such entity during the years presented in these consolidated financial statements. The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared to reflect the retrospective combination of the net assets of the entities at their historical carrying amounts for all periods presented. No new goodwill or other intangible assets have been recorded and all historical related party transactions between the entities have been eliminated in consolidation. The capital stock and shareholders’ equity for all periods presented reflects a continuation of the historical SpaceX capital stock and shareholders’ equity, combined with the historical capital stock and shareholders’ equity of X and xAI merged under common control, as adjusted by the respective exchange ratios used to effect the Mergers, except for xAI’s historical redeemable convertible preferred stock. This presentation constitutes a change in reporting entity. Refer to F-12


 
Note 13, Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Shareholders’ Equity for additional details. As the consolidated financial statements already reflect the reorganization of entities under common control for all periods presented, separate financial statements of xAI and X are not provided. Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America (“U.S.”). Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Amounts which are subject to significant judgment and use of estimates include revenues recognized over time using the cost-to-cost input method, the determination of valuation allowances associated with deferred tax assets and estimates of tax liabilities, reserves for excess and obsolete inventory, fair value of indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill, useful lives of property, plant, and equipment, the determination of incremental borrowing rate for lease liabilities, litigation and settlement costs, and the valuation and assumptions underlying share-based compensation. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates compared to historical experience and current trends, which forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. In addition, the Company engages valuation specialists to assist in the valuation of equity instruments. Concentration of Supplier Risk Certain materials and products that are key inputs in the Company’s Space, Connectivity, and AI segments are available from a limited number of suppliers, including sole or limited-source suppliers; and the Company’s direct chip suppliers are dependent on a concentrated group of advanced semiconductor fabrication facilities. The Company believes that alternative suppliers are available for many, but not all, of these products and services. The inability of these suppliers to deliver necessary components of the products in a timely manner and at prices, quality levels, and volumes acceptable to the Company, or interruptions in supply of materials or products on which these suppliers rely, could have an adverse effect on the Company’s ability to meet customer demands and contractual obligations, to execute on its growth strategy, or to manage its expenses or timelines as expected, which could adversely impact the Company’s financial condition and operating results. Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in checking accounts, money market accounts, and certificates of deposit at high quality financial institutions primarily in the U.S. All highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains certain cash and cash equivalents for which the withdrawal or use is restricted. The restricted cash and cash equivalents are generally held in separate, dedicated accounts required to secure letters of credit related to various customer, insurance, and facility lease agreements. F-13


 
The Company’s total cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, as presented in the consolidated statements of cash flows, are as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2025 2024 2023 Cash and cash equivalents .............................................................. $ 24,747 $ 11,385 $ 4,620 Restricted cash included in prepaid expenses and other current assets ........................................................................................... 182 23 28 Restricted cash included in other assets ......................................... 195 93 42 Total as presented in the consolidated statements of cash flows .......................................................................................... $ 25,124 $ 11,501 $ 4,690 Marketable Securities The Company’s marketable securities consist primarily of debt securities of the U.S. Government, time deposits and certificates of deposits, and are classified and accounted for as either available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. Management determines the classification of its investments at the time of purchase and reevaluates the classification at each balance sheet date. Marketable securities are classified as held-to-maturity when the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity and are carried at cost. The Company’s available- for-sale investments in marketable securities are recorded at fair value, with any unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity until realized. Realized gains and losses on the sale of available-for-sale marketable securities are recorded in Other income (expense), net. Interest on marketable securities is included in Interest income. The Company classifies its marketable securities as either short-term or long-term based on each instrument’s underlying contractual maturity date. Marketable securities with maturities of 12 months or less from the balance sheet date are classified as short-term, and maturities greater than 12 months from the balance sheet date are classified as long-term and included in Other assets. Accounts Receivable, Unbilled Receivables, and Allowance for Credit Losses The Company extends credit in the normal course of business to its customers and performs credit evaluations on a case-by-case basis. The Company generally does not obtain collateral or other security to secure accounts receivable. Billed receivables are recorded at their carrying amount, net of allowance for credit losses, and do not bear interest. Unbilled receivables is comprised principally of revenue recognized on contracts that are not contractually billable at the balance sheet date. The allowance for credit losses is established through a provision for bad debt expense which is recorded in Selling, general, and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company determines the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses by considering a number of factors including: age of invoices, each customer’s expected ability to pay and collection history, customer-specific information, and current economic conditions that may impact a customer’s ability to pay. Accounts receivable are written off when they are deemed uncollectible. Fair Value Measurement Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, states that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. The three-tiered fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes which inputs should be used in measuring fair value, is comprised of: Level I Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets F-14


 
Level II Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly Level III Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data The fair value hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available in determining fair value. The Company’s financial assets only include cash equivalents, certain restricted cash accounts, digital assets and marketable securities that are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The carrying amounts of the Company’s other financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value because of their short maturities. The carrying value of financing obligations approximate fair value based on the interest rate remaining relatively consistent from the dates these arrangements were initially entered into and/or the overall materiality of the related liability balances. Launch Vehicles and Spacecraft The Company has four types of launch vehicles - Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy, Dragon, and Starship. Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy are comprised of the following significant components: boosters (also known as first stages), second stages, Merlin engines, and fairings. Boosters, fairings, and Merlin engines are reusable and are classified as Property, plant, and equipment, net. The second stages are not reusable and are recorded as inventory until they are launched for point-in-time revenue transactions or assigned for over-time revenue transactions. Dragon is composed of a fully reusable capsule that is classified as Property, plant, and equipment, net. Starship is a fully reusable rocket composed of boosters, ships, and Raptor engines and is currently in the development stage. A majority of Starship costs are expensed to Research and development as incurred. Inventory Inventory consists primarily of raw materials and work-in-progress used in the production of launch vehicles and Starlink Kits, and finished goods for Starlink Kits, Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy second stages awaiting launch. Inventory is computed using standard cost or weighted average, which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first- out basis and is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company records inventory write-downs in Cost of revenue in the consolidated statements of operations for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventories based upon assumptions about future demand and design, and technological or other changes. Property, Plant, and Equipment, net Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets except flight vehicles, which is computed based on the expected number of average flights for each flight vehicle. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the related lease term. Management periodically reviews these useful life estimates with engineering and operations teams and revises them as additional data becomes available. The Company estimates the useful lives of its satellite assets based on engineering studies, historical on-orbit performance, propellant life, utilization patterns, design enhancements across generations, and planned transitions to newer satellite technology. The Company estimates broadband satellites to have a five-year useful life and the first generation mobile satellites to have a three-year useful life. The Company estimates the expected flights for its flight vehicle hardware based on three key criteria: (1) the continued ability to successfully recover and refurbish the hardware for additional flights, (2) the continued economic feasibility of using the hardware on incremental flights, supported by declining refurbishment costs and sensitivity analyses, and (3) customer acceptance for reflown hardware as evidenced by the Company’s launch manifest. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs that do not extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed as incurred while significant refurbishment, renewals, and enhancements that increase the functionality, output or expected life of an asset are capitalized and depreciated ratably over the identified useful life. F-15


 
Satellites include costs to build the satellites (parts, labor, and allocated overhead) as well as capitalized launch costs incurred by the Space segment to launch the satellites to orbit, which include an allocation of the flight vehicle hardware costs. The Company capitalizes certain interest costs associated with significant acquisition or construction of certain Property, plant, and equipment, net. The Company begins to capitalize qualified interest cost once activities necessary to get the asset ready for its intended use have commenced. The Company calculates qualified interest capitalization using the average amount of accumulated expenditures during the period the asset is being prepared for its intended use and a capitalization rate which is derived from the Company’s weighted average borrowing rate during such time, in the absence of specific borrowings related to the significant long term construction projects. The Company ceases capitalization on any portions substantially completed and ready for their intended use. Capitalized interest is considered a part of the assets’ historical cost, and depreciates over the estimated useful lives of the underlying assets. The Company evaluates impairment of its Property, plant, and equipment assets at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. The Company reviews Property, plant, and equipment for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. If estimated future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset or asset group, an impairment charge is recognized to the extent its carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value. Routine asset disposals, scrapping, gateway decommissions, and other recurring operational losses are charged to Cost of revenue or Selling, general, and administrative expenses depending on the nature of the assets, or to impairment if the impairment is considered to be outside the normal course of business. The estimated useful lives of the Company’s Property, plant, and equipment, net are as follows: Classification Estimated Useful Life Servers and networking equipment ................................... 5 - 6 years Satellites ............................................................................ 3 - 5 years Machinery and equipment ................................................. 3 - 10 years Flight vehicle hardware ..................................................... 5 - 25 flights Data center infrastructure .................................................. 20 - 25 years Launch sites ....................................................................... 7 - 20 years Buildings and improvements ............................................. 30 years Leasehold improvements ................................................... Shorter of 7 - 20 years or the life of the lease Leases The Company leases facilities, corporate offices, data centers, and manufacturing equipment primarily in the U.S. under various operating and finance leases. In addition, the Company enters into various lease agreements for its satellite gateway sites throughout the world. The Company determines whether an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. If a lease exists, any lease arrangements with contractual terms longer than twelve months are classified as either an operating or finance lease. Finance leases are generally those leases that allow the Company to substantially utilize or pay for the entire asset over its estimated life. All other leases that do not meet any of the criteria for finance lease classification are classified as operating leases. Leases with a lease term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the consolidated statements of operations. Certain lease agreements include options that grant the Company the ability to renew or extend the lease term, or early terminate the lease. When determining the lease term, the Company does not include renewal or early termination options unless they are deemed to be reasonably certain of being exercised at the lease commencement date. F-16


 
Upon lease commencement, the Company recognizes a lease liability measured at the present value of the fixed future minimum lease payments and a right-of-use asset for an amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted by prepaid and accrued rent, lease incentives, and initial direct costs. The Company has elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, with the cost presented as a component of Cost of revenue, Research and development, or Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations depending on the nature of the operating lease. Finance lease cost is composed of a separate interest component and amortization component. The interest component of a finance lease is included in Interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations and the amortization component of a finance lease is included in Cost of revenue, Research and development, or Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations depending on the nature of the finance lease. The Company’s leases generally do not provide information about the rate implicit in the lease. Therefore, the Company utilizes an incremental borrowing rate to calculate the present value of future lease obligations. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate is estimated to approximate the interest rate on a collateralized basis with similar terms and payments, and in economic environments where the leased asset is located. Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in connection with a business combination. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but rather, are tested for impairment annually on October 1 and more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Events that could indicate impairment of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets that trigger an impairment assessment include, but are not limited to, adverse economic market conditions, long-term declining industry outlook conditions, entity-specific financial underperformance, changes in the use of the asset, and other adverse legal and regulatory events. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. The Company may elect to utilize a qualitative assessment to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value and if so, the Company performs a quantitative test. Impairment is recognized when the quantitative assessment results in the carrying value exceeding the fair value. The reporting unit’s estimated fair value is determined on the basis of discounted future cash flows and market approach using the guideline public company method. The Company conducted its annual goodwill impairment test and no goodwill impairments were identified for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023. Refer to Note 6, Intangible Assets and Goodwill for additional discussion on indefinite-lived intangible assets. Digital Assets The Company has ownership of and control over its digital assets, which consist of bitcoin, and utilizes, and expects to continue to utilize, third-party custodians to hold its bitcoin. The Company determines and records the fair value of its bitcoin based on quoted prices on the active exchange that the Company has determined is the principal market for bitcoin (Level I inputs). The cost of bitcoin is based upon the specific identification method. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are recorded to Other income (expense), net in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60) (“ASU 2023-08”), using a modified retrospective approach effective January 1, 2024. The F-17


 
cumulative effect of the changes made on the Company’s January 1, 2024 consolidated balance sheet for the adoption of ASU 2023-08 were as follows: Balance at December 31, 2023 Adjustment from adoption of ASU 2023-08 Balance at January 1, 2024 Assets Digital assets .................................................................................. $ 299 $ 496 $ 794 Shareholders’ Equity Accumulated deficit ....................................................................... $ (4,664) $ 496 $ (4,168) Loss Contingencies The Company is currently involved in, and may in the future be involved in, legal proceedings, claims, investigations, and government inquiries and investigations arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company records a liability when it believes that it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount or range can be reasonably estimated. If the Company determines there is a reasonable possibility that it may incur a loss and the loss or range of loss can be estimated, it discloses the possible loss to the extent material. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount. The Company reviews these provisions on a regular basis and adjusts these provisions accordingly to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and updated information. Legal fees are expensed as incurred. Joint Ventures and Investments The Company has made strategic investments in joint ventures. The Company evaluates each investment to determine if the investee is a variable interest entity, and, if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entity. The Company has determined, as of December 31, 2025, there were no variable interest entities required to be consolidated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company’s investments in unconsolidated affiliates are primarily non-marketable equity securities without readily determinable fair values. The Company accounts for each of its investments in unconsolidated affiliates either under equity method accounting, fair value, or by adjusting the carrying value of its non-marketable equity securities to fair value upon observable transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer or upon impairment (referred to as the measurement alternative). The investments in unconsolidated affiliates are included within Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Gains and losses on the Company’s non-marketable equity securities are recognized in Other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations. Refer to Note 9, Investments in unconsolidated affiliates for additional details. Revenue Recognition Below describes the Company’s significant revenue recognition policies by segment. Space Segment The Company’s Space segment generates revenue primarily through (i) Launch Services for the deployment of payloads to their intended orbits for both commercial and government customers utilizing Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy, and (ii) Launch and Development for the development of spacecraft and provision of launch and mission services for government agency space programs utilizing Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy, Starship, and Dragon. Space revenue is derived from fixed-price contracts related to the development and provision of launch services for the deployment of spacecraft and other payloads to its intended orbit for both commercial customers and governmental agency space programs. The Company recognizes revenue as control is transferred to the customer, either “over time” or at a “point in time”. The Company recognizes revenue over time for Launch and Development contracts when the Company’s performance on the contract creates an asset with no alternative use and when the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance to date. The Company measures progress on these F-18


 
contracts using the cost-to-cost input method, as the Company believes this represents the most appropriate measure towards satisfaction of its performance obligation. Under the cost-to-cost input method, the Company records revenue based upon costs (such as materials and labor hours) incurred to date relative to the total estimated cost at completion. For Launch Services contracts where revenue is recognized at a point in time, due to the interchangeability of flight hardware and minimal unique engineering costs, revenue and costs are deferred and not recognized until the launch or deployment of the customer’s spacecraft to its intended orbit. The Company’s contracts are complex and require the Company to estimate total costs to perform over the term of the contracts, as well as the measurement of progress towards completion for each performance obligation. Developing the estimated total cost at completion for each performance obligation requires the use of significant management judgment, including assumptions regarding launch timing, labor hours, allocation of shared costs for launch vehicles that have been identified as reusable for multiple launches, as well as expected technological changes to launch vehicles and spacecraft. The Company recognizes changes in estimated contract revenue or costs at completion and the resulting changes in contract profit on a cumulative basis. Connectivity Segment The Company’s Connectivity segment generates revenue primarily through broadband and Starlink Mobile services to consumers, and enterprise and government customers throughout 156 markets. Substantially all of the Company’s contracts with Starlink customers contain multiple performance obligations. These performance obligations typically include (i) the broadband services provided through Starlink and (ii) the sale of the Starlink Kit (inclusive of the terminal). For customer contracts that include multiple performance obligations, the Company accounts for individual performance obligations if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on its standalone selling price. The Company determines the standalone selling price based on the price at which the good or service is sold separately on a standalone basis to similar customers in similar locations. Starlink Mobile services have one performance obligation. The Company’s performance obligation to provide broadband and Starlink Mobile services is satisfied over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided. The Company generates service revenue by (i) fixed price services that require advanced or recurring monthly payments by the customer or (ii) variable priced services based on actual data usage of the Starlink broadband. The amounts received from customers for advanced payment for broadband and Starlink Mobile service are included in deferred revenue on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and revenue is recognized either ratably over the subscription term or based on actual data usage. The Company’s contracts are generally month to month and the revenue recognized for these recurring customers is equal to the amount billed in that month. The Company’s performance obligation to provide the Starlink Kit and other related hardware is satisfied at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer. In almost all circumstances, control passes to the customer upon delivery of the Starlink Kit and other related hardware to the customer, or in the instance of certain enterprise customers, when it is installed. Starlink Kit revenue is reported net of sales returns and chargebacks. Shipping and handling charges are included in the transaction price. The Company recognizes shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities and not as a separate performance obligation. The Company recognizes revenue over time for certain contracts related to the Starshield business that are long-term in nature using the cost-to-cost input method. The Company records revenue based upon costs (such as materials and labor hours) incurred to date relative to the total estimated cost at completion. The Company’s Starshield contracts are complex and require the Company to estimate the total costs to perform over the term of the contracts, as well as the measurement of progress towards completion for each performance obligation. Developing the estimated total cost at completion for each performance obligation requires the use of significant management judgment, including assumptions regarding labor hours, allocation of shared costs used in the production of satellites, satellite material costs, as well as expected technological changes to satellites. The Company recognizes changes in estimated contract revenue or costs at completion and the resulting changes in contract profit on a cumulative basis. F-19


 
AI Segment The AI segment generates revenue from the sale of advertising and from AI solutions and infrastructure services, which include (i) subscription offerings, (ii) data licensing arrangements, and (iii) API access to Grok models. Revenue from advertising is recognized in the period in which the advertising is delivered, as evidenced by a user engaging with the ad in a manner that satisfies the advertiser’s selected engagement criteria. The Company evaluates whether it acts as principal or agent when third parties are involved. For advertising products sold directly through its X platform, the Company controls the specified ad services prior to transfer to the advertiser, is responsible for serving the advertisements, and fulfills the advertiser’s engagement criteria. Accordingly, it acts as principal and recognizes revenue on a gross basis. For advertising sold through supply side platform (“SSP”) partners, the Company receives a percentage share of gross advertising spend. The SSP partner controls the advertising inventory prior to its transfer to the advertisers, is primarily responsible for fulfilling the performance obligation to the advertiser, and has discretion in pricing. As a result, the Company acts as agent and recognizes revenue on a net basis. Subscription revenue is recognized ratably over the period of the subscription term. Data licensing arrangements grant customers a right to access, search, and analyze the Company’s historical and real-time intellectual property (“IP”) on the X platform through the developer channel for a defined period. These arrangements may contain a single performance obligation (satisfied at a point in time for historical IP or over time for future IP) or multiple performance obligations satisfied separately. For arrangements with a fixed monthly fee and a single future IP performance obligation, revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period in which the Company provides the data. When such arrangements contain multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates revenue on a relative basis between the performance obligations based on standalone selling price based on directly observable standalone transactions and recognizes revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied. For certain data licensing arrangements, the Company charges customers based on the amount of sales they generate from downstream customers using its data. For arrangements with a minimum guarantee and a single future IP performance obligation, the minimum guarantee is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period. For arrangements with a minimum guarantee and two or more performance obligations, the Company allocates revenue on a relative basis between the performance obligations based on standalone selling price based on directly observable standalone transactions and recognizes revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. Any royalties in excess of minimum guarantees, if any, are recognized over the contract term, on a straight-line, on a cumulative catch-up basis. For the Company’s API services, the primary performance obligation is to stand ready to provide customers with access to the platform to process data through token-based inputs and utilize compute hours for outputs. Revenue is recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the contract term for subscription arrangements that provide stand- ready access. For usage-based arrangements, revenue is recognized as the services are consumed (i.e., as tokens are processed or compute hours are utilized). For all segments, the Company records payment processing fees for its credit card sales within Cost of revenue. Taxes collected from customers and remitted to government authorities are not included in the transaction price. The Company expenses sales commissions as incurred when the amortization period is one year or less within Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Cost of Revenue Cost of revenue includes the cost of materials, depreciation and amortization, shipping and handling, payment processor fees, customs and duties, revenue share costs, infrastructure costs, allocated overhead, and employee compensation costs (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation). Infrastructure costs consist primarily of rocket, kit, and satellite manufacturing facilities and data center costs related to the Company’s colocated facilities, which include lease and hosting costs, related support and maintenance costs, energy and bandwidth costs, and public cloud hosting costs. F-20


 
Warranty on Starlink Kits The Company offers a standard product warranty for a period of one to two years on Starlink Kits. The Company has an obligation to either repair or replace the defective Starlink Kit. At the time revenue is recognized, an estimate of future warranty costs is recorded as a component of Cost of revenue. Factors that affect the warranty obligation include historical as well as current product failure rates and costs incurred in correcting product failures. Warranty expenses and related liabilities are not material to the consolidated financial statements. Research and Development Expenses The Company sponsors various research and development projects, whose costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development (“R&D”) expenses consist of cost of materials, employee compensation costs (including salaries, benefits, and share-based compensation), contractor compensation expenses, cloud computing expenses, data services, equipment lease expenses, depreciation for R&D equipment and allocated overhead. R&D costs also include certain expenses related to the development of features and modules created through engineering services for the Company’s products, where the Company retains the associated intellectual property. Software Development Costs The Company expenses software development costs marketed under on-premise perpetual license agreements. Costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are expensed as research and development costs. Due to the nature of the Company’s development cycle, technological feasibility typically occurs shortly before the product is available for general release. All software development costs for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 were expensed as incurred. Share-Based Compensation The fair value of stock options, restricted share units (“RSUs”) and restricted share awards (“RSAs”) with service and/or performance conditions and the employee share purchase plan (“ESPP”) are estimated on the grant or offering date. The fair value of RSUs, RSAs, and ESPP is determined based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant and the fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option- pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires inputs such as the fair value of the Company’s common stock, risk-free interest rate, expected award term and expected share price volatility. Share-based compensation expense for equity awards with performance conditions is recognized over the requisite service period when the vesting of the award becomes probable. Share-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis for equity awards with only a service condition and on a graded vesting basis for equity awards with a performance condition. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur rather than on an estimated basis. The fair value and derived service period of awards granted to the Company’s CEO with market, service, and performance conditions are estimated on the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model. A Monte Carlo simulation model requires inputs such as fair value of the Company’s common stock, the risk-free interest rate, expected award term, expected share dilution and expected share price volatility. These inputs, which are subjective and generally require judgment, are unique to each award based on the best available information at the valuation date. For these awards, share-based compensation expense is not recognized until the performance condition is probable. Once the performance condition is met, share-based compensation is recorded based on the requisite service period associated with the probable performance condition. Advertising Expense The Company expenses the cost of advertising and other promotional expenditures to primarily market Starlink services as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, advertising expenses included in Selling, general, and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations are $69 million, $31 million, and $29 million, respectively. F-21


 
Net Income (Loss) per Share of Common Stock Attributable to Common Shareholders Net income (loss) per share attributable to common shareholders is computed using the two-class method required for participating securities. Under this method, net income is allocated to common shareholders and participating securities based on their respective rights to receive dividends as if all earnings for the period had been distributed. Certain series of the Company’s redeemable convertible preferred stock are considered participating securities because they are entitled to receive dividends on an as-converted basis if and when dividends are declared on common stock. These securities do not participate in net losses. The Company’s classes of common stock have identical economic rights, resulting in the same net income (loss) per share for each class. Accordingly, the Company presents a single net income (loss) per share for all classes of common stock. Diluted net (loss) income per share is computed based on the more dilutive of (i) the two-class method or (ii) the if- converted method. Potentially dilutive shares from outstanding share-based compensation awards, including stock options and restricted stock units, are included when calculating diluted net income (loss) per share of attributable to common shareholders using the treasury stock method when their effect is dilutive. Refer to Note 13, Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Shareholders’ Equity for additional details of the Company’s preferred and common stock. Income Taxes The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book and tax bases of recorded assets and liabilities. ASC 740 also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company’s ability to realize deferred tax assets is assessed at each year-end and a valuation allowance is established if necessary. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization may include forecasts of future taxable income, future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize net deferred tax assets. The Company applies the provisions of ASC 740-10, which requires the Company to recognize in the consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position only if it is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740) (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. The Company adopted this ASU on a prospective basis effective January 1, 2025. Refer to Note 16, Income Taxes for the inclusion of new disclosures required. Investment Tax Credits The Company recognizes investment tax credits when there is reasonable assurance that the credit will be received and the Company will comply with the conditions specified in the agreement or statutory requirements. The Company records capital-related credits as a reduction to Property, plant, and equipment, net within the consolidated balance sheets and recognizes a reduction to depreciation expense over the useful life of the corresponding acquired asset. Foreign Currency The reporting currency of the Company is the United States (“U.S.”) dollar. The Company determines the functional and reporting currency of each of its international subsidiaries based on the primary currency in which they operate. If the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, the Company recognizes a cumulative translation adjustment created by the different rates the Company applies to current period income or loss and the balance sheet. For each F-22


 
subsidiary, the Company applies the monthly average functional exchange rate to its monthly income or loss and the month-end functional currency rate to translate the balance sheet. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are a result of the effect of exchange rate changes on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in Other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations. Net foreign currency transaction gains (losses) were not material to the consolidated financial statements. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Subtopic 220-40). The ASU requires the disaggregated disclosure of specific expense categories, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, within relevant income statement captions. This ASU also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses along with the definition of selling expenses. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU can either be applied prospectively to consolidated financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. This ASU will likely result in the required additional disclosures being included in the consolidated financial statements, once adopted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU. In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. The amendments in this update provide a practical expedient permitting an entity to assume that conditions at the balance sheet date remain unchanged over the life of the asset when estimating expected credit losses for current classified accounts receivable and contract assets. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of this ASU can be applied prospectively for reporting periods after its effective date. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The ASU simplifies the capitalization guidance by removing all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages (referred to as “project stages”) throughout ASC 350-40. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of this ASU can be applied prospectively for reporting periods after its effective date; or follow a modified transition approach that is based on the status of the respective projects and whether software costs were capitalized before the date of adoption; or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities. The ASU establishes authoritative guidance in GAAP about accounting for government grants received by business entities, clarifies the appropriate accounting, in an effort to reduce diversity in practice, and increase consistency of application across business entities. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Adoption of this ASU can be applied a modified prospective approach, a modified retrospective approach, or a retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. F-23


 
Note 3 - Revenue Revenue disaggregated by products and services is as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2025 2024 2023 Products .......................................................................................... $ 1,510 $ 1,470 $ 1,093 Services .......................................................................................... 17,164 12,545 9,294 Total revenues .............................................................................. $ 18,674 $ 14,015 $ 10,387 All of products revenue is attributable to the Connectivity segment.

Deferred revenue Deferred revenue is recorded when cash payments are received or due, in advance of the Company’s performance. Deferred revenue primarily relates to Space agreements and Connectivity enterprise and government contracts. Total deferred revenue as of December 31, 2024 was $10,179 million, of which $4,080 million was recognized as revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025. Total deferred revenue as of December 31, 2025 was $12,116 million. Revenue recognized during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 that were included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each period was $3,414 million and $2,691 million, respectively. Backlog The Company’s backlog represents the transaction price of performance obligations to customers for which work remains to be performed. The amount of backlog increases with new contracts or additions to existing contracts and decreases as revenue is recognized on existing contracts. Contracts are included in backlog when an enforceable agreement has been reached. Backlog does not include amounts related to performance obligations that are billed and recognized as they are delivered, optional purchases that do not represent material rights and any estimated amounts of variable consideration that are subject to constraint. Backlog totaled $28,377 million as of December 31, 2025, of which $12,116 million was recognized as deferred revenue at December 31, 2025. Approximately 32% is expected to be recognized within one year, and approximately 53% to be recognized in 2027 and 2028, with the remaining 15% to be recognized thereafter. F-24

Construction in progress is primarily comprised of ongoing construction and expansion of the facilities and equipment as well as AI infrastructure that has not yet been placed in service. Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $5,915 million, $2,977 million and $1,897 million respectively. Interest is capitalized during the construction period for significant long term construction projects, such as the AI infrastructure data centers. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company capitalized $169 million of interest, F-25


 
which is included in Construction-in-progress amounts above. No interest was capitalized during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded impairment charges of $38 million and $63 million, respectively, related to the write off of (i) damaged flight vehicle in the Space segment, and (ii) abandoned production line and damaged satellite hardware in the Connectivity segment. These charges are reflected in Impairment in the consolidated statements of operations. There was no impairment related to Property, plant, and equipment recorded in Impairment during the year ended December 31, 2023. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company also recorded impairment charges of $36 million and $54 million, respectively, related to its leasehold improvements and office equipment as part of its facilities consolidation efforts in the AI segment in Restructuring charges in the consolidated statements of operations. There was no impairment related to Property, plant, and equipment recorded in Restructuring charges during the year ended December 31, 2025. Refer to Note 20, Restructuring for additional details. In 2024, the Company closed two taxable revenue bond transactions with a local municipality, in order to receive a personal property tax abatement on newly acquired server and networking equipment in the state. Pursuant to this transaction, the municipality issued taxable revenue bonds of $442 million and $258 million principal amount each to the Company and used the constructive proceeds to purchase the server and networking equipment from the Company, and then leased the equipment back to the Company. As this effectively created a bond receivable and a corresponding financing obligation with the municipality, and the Company has the legal right to set-off and intends to set-off the corresponding lease expense and bond service payments received, there was no impact to the consolidated statements of operations and consolidated balance sheets. Note 6 - Intangible Assets and Goodwill Intangible Assets Finite-lived intangible assets consist of the following: December 31, 2025 Weighted- Average Useful Life (years) Gross Carrying Value Accumulated Amortization Net Carrying Value Brand ...................................................................... 5.0 $ 743 $ (335) $ 408 User base ................................................................. 9.0 1,291 (456) 835 Existing technology ................................................ 3.2 27 (16) 11 Advertising customer relationships ........................ 5.0 752 (478) 274 Acquired workforce ................................................ 2.0 9 — 9 Total ................................................................. $ 2,822 $ (1,285) $ 1,537 December 31, 2024 Weighted- Average Useful Life (in years) Gross Carrying Value Accumulated Amortization Net Carrying Value Brand ...................................................................... 5.0 $ 707 $ (177) $ 530 User base ................................................................. 9.0 1,225 (297) 928 Existing technology ................................................ 3.0 1,140 (823) 317 Advertising customer relationships ........................ 5.0 714 (311) 403 Data licensing customer relationships .................... 3.0 102 (74) 28 Developed technology ............................................ 2.0 3 (2) 1 Total ................................................................. $ 3,891 $ (1,684) $ 2,207 F-26


 
Amortization expense associated with finite-lived intangible assets was $786 million, $847 million, and $738 million in the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The Company also has indefinite-lived intangible assets of $11 million and $4 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Indefinite-lived intangible assets primarily consist of domain names, which are expected to provide long-term branding and marketing benefits. No impairment charges were recognized on indefinite-lived intangible assets for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 other than the Twitter impairment described below. Estimated future amortization expense of finite-lived intangible assets as of December 31, 2025 is as follows: 2026 ...................................................................................................................................................... $ 452 2027 ...................................................................................................................................................... 421 2028 ...................................................................................................................................................... 256 2029 ...................................................................................................................................................... 143 2030 ...................................................................................................................................................... 142 Thereafter .............................................................................................................................................. 123 $ 1,537 Twitter Impairment In 2023, the Company rebranded its Twitter platform to X. As a result of the rebranding, the Company performed an impairment assessment and recorded an impairment charge of $3,775 million on its previously indefinite-lived brand intangible for the AI segment. The Company’s brand intangible asset was determined to no longer be indefinite- lived and is presented as a finite-lived intangible asset with a five-year useful life. The fair value of the brand intangible asset was determined using the relief-from-royalty method. Spectrum Transactions On September 7, 2025, the Company entered into a License Purchase Agreement (the “Spectrum License Purchase Agreement”) with Spectrum Business Trust 2025-1, a Nevada Business Trust (“Trust”) and EchoStar Corporation (“EchoStar”, and the transactions contemplated thereby, “Spectrum Transactions”) for total consideration of $17,000 million as discussed below. Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Spectrum License Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to purchase EchoStar’s rights and licenses related to an aggregate of 50 MHz of spectrum in frequency ranges 2000–2020, 2180–2200, 1915–1920 and 1995–2000 (the “AWS-4 and H-Block Licenses” and such spectrum, “the Spectrum”) granted by the Federal Communication Commissions (“FCC”), together with certain international authorizations, filings, concessions, licenses, rights and priorities related to that spectrum and certain assets associated therewith (collectively, the “Foreign Assets”). The transfer of the AWS-4 and H-Block Licenses will occur in two steps: first, the AWS-4 and H-Block Licenses will be transferred by EchoStar to the Trust (the “Spectrum Transfer Closing”), and second, the AWS-4 and H-Block Licenses will be transferred by the Trust to the Company (the “Spectrum Acquisition Closing”). The Foreign Assets will be transferred directly to the Company at the Spectrum Acquisition Closing, to the extent the required regulatory approvals have been obtained by such date; provided, however, that the failure to obtain such approvals will not delay or prevent the Spectrum Acquisition Closing. In connection with the Spectrum License Purchase Agreement and the Spectrum Transactions, on September 7, 2025, the Company and the Trust entered into a Credit Agreement, pursuant to which the Company has agreed upon the Spectrum Transfer Closing, to loan to the Trust (via loans which are able to be canceled at six-month intervals) to be used by the Trust to make debt service payments on EchoStar’s debt through at least November 30, 2027, but in no event later than November 30, 2028. These loans will be secured on a junior lien basis by the AWS-4 and H- Block Licenses. The aggregate amount of debt service payments through November 30, 2028 will equal approximately $3,000 million. F-27


 
On November 5, 2025, the parties amended and restated the Spectrum License Purchase Agreement to include EchoStar’s licenses for up to 15MHz of additional unpaired AWS-3 spectrum, and increased the consideration by $2,600 million, to a total amount of consideration of $19,600 million. The cash payoff consideration (as noted below), two-step transfer process, debt service payments, trust structure, and maintenance obligations remain unchanged. The total consideration, approximating $19.6 billion, consisting of (i) approximately $11.1 billion in equity, payable through the issuance of approximately 261.8 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a fixed value of $42.40 per share, and (ii) up to $8.5 billion related to the payoff of designated EchoStar debt, with any shortfall below $8.5 billion to be paid in cash. The allocation of cash and equity consideration is subject to certain adjustments based on the amount of EchoStar debt satisfied at or prior to closing. The Spectrum Acquisition Closing is expected to occur on or about November 30, 2027. The completion of the Spectrum Transactions is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including, among others, receipt of certain consents and approvals from the FCC and the Department of Justice (“DOJ”). The Spectrum License Purchase Agreement also provides for specified termination rights. As of December 31, 2025, the Spectrum Transfer Closing has not yet occurred, and as a result, the Company is not yet obligated to make any payments under the Credit Agreement with the Trust. Once the Spectrum Transfer Closing occurs, the Spectrum Transactions will be recognized as acquired intangible assets. Goodwill The activity for goodwill is as follows: Balance at December 31, 2023 ............................................................................................................. $ 11,418 Cumulative translation adjustments .................................................................................................

Note 9 - Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates Equity method investment In April 2025, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary CTC Property LLC (“CTC”), entered into a joint venture Stateline Power, LLC (“Stateline”), with Solaris Power Solutions Stateline, LLC (“Stateline Power Solutions”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Solaris Energy Infrastructure, Inc. (“Solaris”). Stateline was formed to provide off-grid power to CTC’s data center campus pursuant to a long-term equipment rental arrangement. In connection with the formation of Stateline, Solaris contributed non-cash assets valued at $86 million, consisting primarily of progress payments on power generation equipment now owned by Stateline and pre- funded expenses, in exchange for a 50.1% equity interest in Stateline. CTC contributed $86 million in cash in exchange for the remaining 49.9% equity interest. Interests in Stateline held by CTC were subsequently assigned to MZX Tech LLC (“MZX”), another wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Concurrent with its formation, CTC (subsequently assigned to MZX) entered into a master equipment rental agreement (“Rental Agreement”) with Stateline under which Stateline will lease power generation equipment to MZX for use at the Company’s data center facility. The Rental Agreement lease commences upon completion of equipment deployment and commissioning activities by Stateline. No rental payments were made by the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company evaluated its interest in Stateline under ASC 810 and determined that Stateline is a variable interest entity but the Company is not the primary beneficiary because it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact Stateline’s economic performance, which are the operations of the assets managed by a subsidiary of Solaris and the Company’s lack of control over how the assets are managed and redeployed after the initial term of the Rental Agreement. As a result, the Company accounts for its interest in Stateline using the equity method of accounting. As of December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the equity method investment was $86 million, which represents the Company’s initial investment in Stateline. Activity in Stateline during the year ended December 31, 2025 was not material. Equity investments without readily determinable fair value As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company held investments in unconsolidated affiliates which are accounted for as equity investments without readily determinable fair values of $157 million and $154 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company recorded a total of $0 million, $1 million, and $45 million of impairment charges related to the equity method investments in Other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations.

In connection with the Plan of Conversion, the Company updated its authorized capitalization to issue five classes of stock - four classes to be designated Class A common stock (“Class A”), Class B common stock (“Class B”), Class C common stock (“Class C”), Class D common stock (“Class D”) (collectively the “SpaceX Common Stock”), and one class of stock to be designated preferred stock and subdivided into several series of redeemable convertible preferred stock (collectively the “SpaceX Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock”). All references to “Class” refer to that particular class of SpaceX Common Stock and all references to “Series” refer to that particular series of SpaceX Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. As of December 31, 2025, the total number of shares of SpaceX Common Stock the Company is authorized to issue is 53,855 million shares, each with a par value of $0.001 per share, except for Class D, which has a par value of $0.0001 per share. 36,130 million shares are Class A, 5,325 million shares are Class B, 10,000 million shares are Class C, and 2,400 million shares are Class D. The total number of SpaceX Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock that the Company is authorized to issue is 2,607 million shares, of which 2,400 million shares are undesignated. With the exception of the expanded conversion rights described below, there were no changes to the dividend provisions, liquidation preferences, conversion rights, redemption rights or the voting rights of the SpaceX Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and SpaceX Common Stock during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023. In 2022, the Board approved a stock split (the “2022 Stock Split”), pursuant to which each share of the SpaceX Common Stock issued and outstanding was split into ten shares of SpaceX Common Stock. In May 2026, the Board F-38


 
approved the 2026 Stock Split, pursuant to which each share of the Class A, Class B, and Class C SpaceX Common Stock issued and outstanding was split into five shares of SpaceX Common Stock. xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Common Stock On March 28, 2025, xAI adopted an Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, which established its capital structure and designated multiple classes of common stock and several series of redeemable convertible preferred stock. The Articles were subsequently amended and restated through January 30, 2026 (collectively, the “xAI Articles of Incorporation”) to add and authorize additional series of redeemable convertible preferred stock with no economic changes to any previously existing series. Pursuant to the xAI Articles of Incorporation, xAI’s authorized capitalization prior to the xAI Merger consisted of three classes of common, stock, which are designated Class A common stock (“xAI Class A”), Class B common stock (“xAI Class B”), Limited Voting common stock (“xAI Limited Voting”), (collectively the “xAI Common Stock”) and several series of redeemable convertible preferred stock (collectively the “xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock”). All references to “xAI Class” refer to that particular class of xAI Common Stock and all references to “xAI Series” refer to that particular series of xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. As of December 31, 2025, the total number of xAI Common Stock that xAI authorized to issue is 7,884 million shares, each with a par value of $0.001 per share, 5,874 million shares are xAI Class A, 2,000 million shares are xAI Class B, and 10 million shares are xAI Limited Voting. The total number of xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock that the Company is authorized to issue is 3,302 million shares. Effect of the xAI Merger xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock Upon the effective date of the xAI Merger, all outstanding shares of xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock converted into shares of SpaceX Common Stock, based on the share-for-share exchange mechanics specified in the Merger Agreement. Each share of xAI Series A-1, B, C, D, and E redeemable convertible preferred stock (classified as “xAI Low Vote Stock”) was converted into 0.1433 shares of SpaceX Class A Common Stock per preferred share (on a pre-2026 Stock Split basis), rounded up to the nearest whole number for fractional shares. Each share of xAI Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock (classified as “xAI High Vote Stock”) was converted into 0.1433 shares of SpaceX Class B Common Stock per preferred share (on a pre-2026 Stock Split basis), rounded up to the nearest whole number for fractional shares. For xAI Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, all holders that are an eligible service provider may instead elect to receive cash of $75.46 per share (on a pre-2026 Stock Split basis) of xAI Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. Upon conversion, all shares of xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock were canceled and retired, and former xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock shareholders received the applicable shares of SpaceX Common Stock. Any shares of xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock previously held by the Company were canceled and retired and did not receive any consideration. Although xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock converted into SpaceX Common Stock upon the xAI Merger closing, the xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock balances are presented as Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock in the consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. Because the xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock was legally outstanding during all historical periods prior to the xAI Merger and represented a separate equity class of a legally distinct predecessor entity, the conversion of xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock into SpaceX Common Stock is recognized only in the period in which the exchange actually occurs, and not retrospectively. Accordingly, the historical consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of redeemable convertible preferred stock and shareholders’ equity reflect the xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock as outstanding xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock consistent with its legal form and rights during those periods and are not recast on an as-converted basis. The impact of the conversion will be presented prospectively in the period of the merger (Q1 2026). F-39


 
xAI Warrants xAI also issued warrants to customer that were outstanding as of the effective date of the xAI Merger, which had a ten-year term originally set to expire in 2035, with an exercise price equal to the par value of the stock, and vesting terms that resulted in the warrants vesting proportionally to the payments received under the related agreement. The closing of the xAI Merger triggered an acceleration clause in which all outstanding xAI warrants, both vested and unvested components, were automatically exercised on a cashless basis exercised and converted into fully vested SpaceX Class A Common Stock at the exchange ratio of 0.1433 (on a pre-2026 Stock Split basis). xAI and X Common Stock Upon the effective date of the xAI Merger, every outstanding share of xAI Common Stock, whether Class A, Class B, or Limited Voting, converted into the right to receive SpaceX Common Stock at a fixed exchange ratio of 0.1433 SpaceX shares per share of xAI Common Stock (on a pre-2026 Stock Split basis), unless the holder was an eligible service provider and elected to receive cash of $75.46 per share of xAI Class A or Class B. No fractional SpaceX shares were issued and all share amounts were rounded up to the nearest whole number. Any shares of xAI Common Stock previously held by the Company were canceled and retired and did not receive any consideration. Effect of the X Merger Upon the effective date of the X Merger, each class of common stock of X Holdings Corp. (“X Common Stock”) was converted to 2.776 shares of xAI Common Stock of the same class (rounded down to the nearest whole share), each class of common stock of X.AI Corp. (“xAI Corp. Common Stock”) was converted to 1.000 share of xAI Common Stock of the same class, and each series of X.AI Corp. preferred stock (“xAI Corp. Preferred Stock”) (other than shares held by X or any of its subsidiaries) was converted to 1.000 share of xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock of the same series. As a result of the Mergers, all of X, X.AI Corp. and xAI Common Stock are being presented in the historical financial statements as if they had been converted into SpaceX Common Stock at the applicable exchange rate for all periods presented. As such, all shares of historical X, X.AI Corp. and xAI Common Stock are included in the share counts for SpaceX Common Stock below. X.AI Corp. and xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock are being presented in the consolidated financial statements at historical values with an adjustment to the conversion rate at the applicable exchange ratio per the xAI Merger.

The weighted-average grant date fair value per share of RSAs granted during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 was $93.87, $—, and $0.00, respectively. There were no RSAs released during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the total fair value of the RSAs released during the year ended December 31, 2023 was $38 million. F-48


 
CEO Award In November 2025, the Company granted a performance-based award (“xAI Award”) to Elon Musk consisting of twelve tranches. Each tranche represents the right to receive a number of shares at fair market value equal to 1.0% of xAI’s valuation at the valuation milestone. The xAI Award is subject to market conditions based on valuation milestones, ranging from $213 billion to $1,313 billion, performance condition requiring the Company to receive not less than $2,000 million in proceeds from investors through capital raises on the milestone date, and a service condition requiring Mr. Musk’s continued service over the ten-year performance period. The grant date fair value of the award was determined to be $2,205 million and the Company recorded $28 million of share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2025. In March 2026, the Company terminated the xAI Award, refer to Note 21, Subsequent Events for further discussion. Performance-based awards In March 2023, X issued performance-based RSU awards to all X employees that also included service conditions. The performance conditions would only be satisfied upon a change in control or completion of an initial public offering (deemed a liquidity event). For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, no share-based compensation expense was recorded as it was not probable the performance-based vesting condition would be met. In 2025, these awards were modified to remove the performance-based condition, resulting in additional share-based compensation expense of $588 million. Fair Value Determination The weighted-average assumptions that were used to calculate the grant date fair value of the Company’s employee stock option grants are as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2025 2024 2023 Expected term (years) ..................................................................... 6.94 6.80 6.70 Volatility ......................................................................................... 43.14 % 39.80 % 43.20 % Risk-free interest rate ..................................................................... 4.02 % 4.30 % 3.60 % Dividend yield ................................................................................ — % — % — % The expected term of employee stock options represents the weighted-average period that the stock options are expected to remain outstanding. The Company determined the expected term of options granted using the simplified method. Under the simplified method, the expected term of an award is presumed to be the mid-point between the vesting period and the contractual life of the award. The Company determined the expected volatility assumption using the frequency of daily historical prices of comparable public companies’ common stock for a period equal to the expected term of the options. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates on U.S. Government securities for a period consistent with the expected term of the Company’s employee stock options. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its Common Stock and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. F-49

Summary of Share-Based Compensation Information The following table summarizes our share-based compensation expense by line item in the consolidated statements of operations: 4.06 0.00 Year Ended December 31, 2025 2024 2023 Cost of revenue ............................................................................... $ 253 $ 193 $ 167 Research and development ............................................................. 859 230 179 Selling, general, and administrative ............................................... 835 360 333 Total ......................................................................................... $ 1,947 $ 784 $ 679 During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, share-based compensation expense capitalized to the consolidated balance sheets was $154 million, $132 million, and $108 million, respectively. No income tax benefit was recognized from share-based compensation expense during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 due to the valuation allowance on U.S. deferred tax assets. Refer to Note 16, Income Taxes for additional details.

The significant components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows: December 31, 2025 2024 Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carryforwards ............................................................................. $ 2,275 $ 572 Research and development and other credits ........................................................... 3,627 2,988 Intangible assets ....................................................................................................... 812 568 Operating lease liability ........................................................................................... 1,613 313 Capitalized research and development costs ........................................................... 4,077 3,215 Share-based compensation ...................................................................................... 366 254 Deferred revenue ..................................................................................................... 757 664 Disallowed interest expense .................................................................................... 762 785 Other ........................................................................................................................ 233 206 Total deferred tax assets .......................................................................................... 14,522 9,565 Valuation allowance ................................................................................................

(6,123) (3,280) Deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance ................................................. $ 113 $ 664 In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considered whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realizable based on the relevant weight of all positive and negative evidence, including the retrospective combination of the financial results of the entities due to the Mergers described in Note 1, Nature of Business. As a result of the Mergers, management assessed the realizability of the deferred tax assets of the combined group and concluded that the majority of the U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets are not more likely than not to be realized based on cumulative pretax losses adjusted for permanent differences and other negative evidence. Accordingly, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its net U.S. deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2025 with the exception of certain state deferred tax assets and transferrable investment tax credits that are expected to be realizable. The Company will continue to assess the realizability of its deferred tax assets in future periods and will adjust the valuation allowance as necessary based on changes in facts and circumstances. In addition, the Company continues to record a valuation allowance in certain foreign jurisdictions where the Company has concluded it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. A reconciliation of the valuation allowance is as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2025 2024 2023 Beginning balance .......................................................................... $ 5,621 $ 5,582 $ 4,347 Charged to income tax expense ...................................................... 2,551 204 1,210 Charged to other comprehensive income ....................................... 114 (55) 25 Cumulative effect adjustment ......................................................... — (110) — Ending balance ............................................................................ $ 8,286 $ 5,621 $ 5,582 F-53


 
The valuation allowance on the Company’s net deferred tax assets increased by $2,665 million, $39 million and $1,235 million during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The changes in valuation allowance are primarily driven by the generation of net operating loss carry-forwards (“NOLs”) and tax credits, which are not more likely than not to be realizable. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company released a partial valuation allowance on SpaceX’s U.S. deferred tax assets for the retrospectively combined comparative results. Based on available projections as of December 31, 2024, management forecasted $659 million of deferred tax assets related to U.S. R&D credits would be utilized in the following year on a separate company basis in 2025 before the Mergers occurred, and as such, no valuation allowance was recorded on those credits. At December 31, 2025, the Company had NOLs for federal and state income tax purposes of $9,728 million and $5,234 million, which are available to offset taxable income in future periods. The federal NOLs generated through December 31, 2017 expire at various dates beginning in 2034 and will continue to expire through 2037, while U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards generated in 2018 or later do not expire. The state NOLs will expire at various dates beginning in 2027. At December 31, 2025, the Company had tax credits for federal and state income tax purposes of $3,586 million and $2,104 million, respectively, which are available to offset future periods and begin to expire in 2036 for federal income tax purposes. Of the $2,104 million in state tax credits, $161 million will begin to expire in 2026 and the remaining credits do not expire. Additionally, the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes are subject to various limitations and restrictions, including those arising from ownership changes under applicable tax laws, which may limit the Company’s ability to utilize such attributes in the future. At December 31, 2025, the Company had foreign NOLs of $126 million, which will expire at various dates based on the tax laws of the different jurisdictions we operate in. In assessing whether uncertain tax positions should be recognized in the financial statements, the Company first determines whether it is more likely than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation process, based on the technical merits of the position. In evaluating whether a tax position has met the more likely than-not recognition threshold, the Company presumes that the position will be examined by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. For tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold, the Company measures the amount of benefit recognized in its financial statements at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50.0% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The following table reflects changes in gross unrecognized tax benefits: Year Ended December 31, 2025 2024 2023 Beginning balance .......................................................................... $ 1,619 $ 1,320 $ 1,114 Gross increases - current year tax positions ................................... 282 302 233 Gross increases - prior year tax positions ....................................... 16 — — Gross decreases - current year tax positions .................................. — — — Gross decreases - prior year tax positions ......................................

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax benefits as part of the income tax provision. The amount of interest and penalties recognized in the periods presented were insignificant. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has accrued $6 million and $5 million, respectively, related to interest and penalties on our unrecognized tax F-54


 
benefits. As of December 31, 2025, unrecognized tax benefits of $11 million, if recognized, would affect our effective tax rate. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. and all state and various foreign jurisdictions. To the extent the Company has tax attribute carryforwards, the tax years in which the attribute was generated may still be adjusted upon examination by the federal, state or foreign tax authorities to the extent utilized in a future period. As of December 31, 2025, the major jurisdictions in which the Company remains subject to examinations are U.S. federal and California for tax years 2003 and forward. Based on all available information, the Company is not aware of any new information that would require the remeasurement of its uncertain tax positions. On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, Public Law No. 119-21 and formally titled “An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. 14” (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the United States. The OBBBA includes a broad range of tax provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain provisions of the 2017 Act and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. The Company has evaluated the provisions of the OBBBA and determined that the most significant impacts relate to the expensing of research and experimental expenditures under IRC Section 174A and interest expense limitation under IRC Section 163(j). The effects of applicable provisions of OBBBA have been reflected in the Company’s income tax provision. Note 17 - Commitments and Contingencies Unconditional Obligations The Company’s unconditional obligations are non-cancelable contractual commitments primarily relate to the Company’s investments in AI infrastructure and third-party cloud capacity arrangements and other service arrangements. It also includes the Company’s commitments under the Spectrum Transaction, which are payable in cash and in the Company’s Class A Common Stock. Refer to Note 6, Intangible Assets and Goodwill for additional details. The following table summarizes the Company’s non-cancelable contractual commitments as of December 31, 2025: 2026 ...................................................................................................................................................... $ 2,720 2027 ...................................................................................................................................................... 21,476 2028 ...................................................................................................................................................... 1,250 2029 ...................................................................................................................................................... 4 2030 ...................................................................................................................................................... 1 Thereafter .............................................................................................................................................. — Total .................................................................................................................................................... $ 25,451 Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds The Company had outstanding letters of credit of $348 million at December 31, 2025 related to various customer contracts, insurance agreements, and facility lease agreements. All of the outstanding letters of credit were collateralized by restricted cash. The Company also had surety bonds of $51 million for self-insured workers’ compensation programs and other governmental licenses at December 31, 2025. Legal Proceedings In the normal course of its business, the Company is involved from time to time in various arbitrations, class actions, commercial litigation, investigations and other legal, regulatory or governmental actions, including the significant matters described below that could have a material impact on our results of operations. The Company assesses, in conjunction with its legal counsel, the need to record a liability for litigation and contingencies. With respect to the cases, actions, and inquiries described below, the Company evaluates the associated developments on a regular basis and will accrue a liability when it believes a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. In F-55


 
addition, the Company believes there is a reasonable possibility that it may incur a loss in some of these matters and the loss may be material or exceed its estimated ranges of possible loss. The outcomes of the matters described in this section, such as whether the likelihood of loss is remote, reasonably possible, or probable, or if and when the reasonably possible range of loss is estimable, are inherently uncertain, and unless specified otherwise, possible losses are not reasonably estimable at this time. If one or more of these matters were resolved against the Company for amounts above management’s estimates, the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, including in a particular reporting period in which any such outcome becomes probable and estimable, could be materially adversely affected. In November 2022, the European Union’s Digital Services Act (“DSA”) came into force as a result of which X has to comply with extensive content moderation and other duties. The Company published its first Transparency Report under the DSA in November 2023. In December 2023, the European Commission (“EC”) opened a formal investigation into X and its Irish subsidiary, Twitter International Unlimited Company (“TIUC”), which was later renamed to X Internet Unlimited Company (XIUC). On July 12, 2024, in relation to alleged breaches of Articles 25(1), 39 and 40(12) of the DSA, the EC issued preliminary findings that X’s blue checkmark is deceptive, its advertisement repository does not meet DSA requirements, and it grants inadequate access to data to third-party researchers. On September 26, 2024, XIUC and X submitted their observations challenging the EC’s preliminary findings. On December 5, 2025, the EC delivered a final decision in which it upheld its preliminary findings and imposed a fine of EUR 120 million on XIUC, X., x.AI, and Elon Musk (together, the “parties”). On February 16, 2026, the parties challenged the EC’s decision in the General Court of the European Union. This challenge remains pending. In March 2016, non-practicing entity Youtoo Technologies filed suit against Twitter, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas alleging its Vine and Periscope products infringe Youtoo’s video- sharing patents (the ‘304, ‘506, and ‘997 patents). On Twitter’s motion, the district court dismissed the ‘304 and ’506 patents as invalid. Twitter filed petitions for Inter Partes Review before the Patent Trial and Appeals Board (PTAB) challenging all three patents-in-suit. The PTAB upheld the ‘304 and ‘506 Patents and invalidated the ‘997 Patent; the Federal Circuit affirmed. On March 16, 2020, Plaintiff (now Vidstream LLC, which allegedly acquired the patents from Youtoo Technologies in a bankruptcy proceeding), moved the Court to reconsider its earlier ruling invalidating the ‘304 and ‘506 patents. On April 1, 2022, the Court reversed its original ruling on the ‘304 and ‘506 patents. On September 27, 2024, Vidstream filed a motion for partial summary judgment, which the Court granted in part. The case went to a jury trial, and on April 16, 2025, the jury rendered a verdict finding (i) that Twitter did not infringe any claim of the ‘506 patent and two out of three claims of the ‘304 patent and that each of those patent claims was invalid, but (ii) that Twitter willfully infringed one claim of the ‘304 patent. The jury awarded Plaintiff $105 million in damages. In November 2025, the district court affirmed the jury’s award and awarded an additional $67 million in prejudgment interest. Twitter has appealed and Vidstream has cross-appealed. Both appeals remain pending before the Federal Circuit. In June 2023, music publishing companies that are members of the National Music Publishers’ Association (the “NMPA”) filed a complaint against X in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, claiming direct, contributory, and vicarious copyright infringement based on Twitter’s alleged failure to expeditiously take down infringing music posted by users after the music publishers allegedly gave Twitter notice of those infringements. The music publishers also allege that Twitter did not suspend the accounts of “repeat infringers,” so that Twitter is not entitled to a “safe harbor” from liability under the DMCA. X filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on August 14, 2023. On March 5, 2024, the Court dismissed plaintiffs’ direct infringement and vicarious infringement claims, and part of plaintiffs’ claim for contributory infringement. X answered the complaint on April 9, 2024. Litigation was stayed from June 11, 2025 to September 9, 2025 for settlement discussions that were not successful. Accordingly, discovery is ongoing. In September 2023, Dutch foundation Stichting Data Bescherming Nederland (“SDBN”) filed a putative class action lawsuit in the District Court of Amsterdam in the Netherlands against TIUC, Twitter, Inc., X Corp., and Twitter Netherlands b.v. related to Twitter’s operation of the MoPub platform. SDBN primarily claims that MoPub’s real- time bidding ad exchange violated the GDPR. SDBN claims to represent 11 million Dutch internet users who downloaded and used third-party mobile apps containing the MoPub software development kit during the period F-56


 
2013-2022 and it seeks a monetary award in the range of € 250 to € 2,500 per person. On February 4, 2026, the Court declined to allow the case to proceed as a class action and indicated that it is considering staying the proceedings until the Court of Justice of the European Union has ruled in a separate case concerning the applicability of Dutch class action requirements to GDPR claims. The Twitter parties filed a brief in support of the proposed stay, which the plaintiffs opposed, on March 4, 2026. In August 2024, Dutch foundation Stichting Onderzoek Marktinformatie (SOMI) initiated a collective action in the District Court of Amsterdam in the Netherlands on behalf of approximately 7.8 million Dutch X users. Among other things, SOMI seeks damages against TIUC, X Corp. and Twitter Netherlands B.V. (collectively, the “X entities”) for: (1) alleged data breaches and insufficient security measures; (2) alleged unauthorized microtargeting and lack of transparency; and (3) the alleged failure to moderate hate speech and the obstruction of research, all in violation of the GDPR and/or DSA. The alleged data breaches relate to a Twitter API bug that came to light in 2022 and that had allowed persons who knew the email address or phone number of a user to determine the user’s Twitter ID. SOMI has requested compensation (to be assessed at a later stage) for each member of the class, including symbolic damages of EUR 1 for each member of the class that is allegedly affected by hate speech on the X platform. The X entities filed a procedural defense on March 12, 2025. A hearing has been scheduled for April 2, 2026. In September 2025, non-practicing entity Search and Share Technologies, LLC (“SaS”) filed a patent complaint against X Corp. in the Federal District Court for the Western District of Texas. SaS alleges that X Corp. infringed on U.S. Patent Nos. 10,180,952 and 11,106,744, through features in its mobile app and website enabling users to interact with content through dedicated interfaces that directly share what other users see in ranked feeds and search results. SaS filed an Amended Complaint on January 5, 2026. On January 20, 2026, X Corp. moved to dismiss SaS’s willful infringement and induced infringement claims. On February 3, 2026, SAS responded to, but did not oppose, X Corp.’s partial motion to dismiss. On February 10, 2026, X Corp. filed its reply. On February 4, 2026, X Corp. filed an IPR petition challenging the ‘744 Patent and on February 18, 2026, filed an IPR petition challenging the '952 Patent. Beginning in January 2026, the Company and certain subsidiaries have been named as defendants in multiple lawsuits arising from Grok’s image-generation and editing features. The complaints generally allege that Grok’s image-generation and editing features enabled the creation and dissemination of nonconsensual explicit images and/ or content representing women and/or children in sexualized contexts. The actions include Jane Doe v. X.AI Corp. and X.AI LLC, instituted in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California on January 23, 2026, and Jane Doe 1 et al. v. X.AI Corp. and X.AI LLC (the “Jane Doe 1 Case”) instituted in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California on March 16, 2026. These cases are putative class actions, asserting claims including, among other things, claims of strict liability, negligence, nuisance, rights of privacy or publicity, and, in the Jane Doe 1 Case, certain federal statutory claims. Plaintiffs in these two cases seek, among other things, compensatory, statutory and punitive damages, restitution, disgorgement and injunctive relief. In addition, a case, Mayor and City Council of Baltimore ex rel. Ebony M. Thompson v. X Corp., X.AI Corp., X.AI LLC, and Space Exploration Technologies Corp, was instituted in the Baltimore City Circuit Court on March 24, 2026 (the “Baltimore Case”). The plaintiff in the Baltimore Case, the Mayor and City Council of Baltimore, asserts similar claims to those in the two cases discussed above under Baltimore’s Consumer Protection Ordinances. The plaintiff in the Baltimore Case seeks statutory penalties and/or injunctive relief. The defendants intend to defend themselves vigorously in these actions. The Company has recorded an accrual of $530 million for litigation losses that are probable and reasonably estimable in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and Other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025. For other matters, the Company is not currently able to estimate the reasonably possible loss or range of loss. Non-Income Taxes The Company is under various non-income tax audits by domestic and foreign tax authorities. These audits primarily revolve around routine inquiries, refund requests, and employee benefits. The Company accrues non- income taxes that may result from these audits when they are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Due to the F-57


 
complexity and uncertainty of some of these matters, however, as well as the judicial process in certain jurisdictions, the final outcome of these audits may be materially different from the Company’s expectations. Indemnifications In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnifications of varying scope and terms to customers, vendors, lessors, investors, directors, officers, employees, and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of the Company’s breach of certain agreements, services to be provided by the Company, or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. These indemnifications may survive the termination of the underlying agreement and the maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification provisions may not be subject to maximum loss clauses. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by us under these agreements have not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has not accrued a liability for any indemnification claims, because the likelihood of incurring a payment obligation, if any, in connection with any such indemnification claims is not probable or reasonably estimable. Note 18 - Related Party Transactions The Company periodically does business with certain entities with which its CEO and directors are affiliated. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company purchased $506 million and $191 million of Megapack products, respectively, from Tesla, Inc. (“Tesla”) recorded in Property, plant, and equipment, net in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company also obtained $131 million of Cybertrucks at manufacturer’s suggested retail price from Tesla recorded in Property, plant, and equipment, net in the consolidated balance sheets during the year ended December 31, 2025. On October 12, 2025, and as subsequently amended on November 10, 2025, CTC, a subsidiary of xAI and an indirect subsidiary of the Company, entered into an equipment lease agreement with Valor Equity Partners (“Valor”) for certain AI infrastructure hardware (the “Valor transaction”). The founder, CEO and Chief Investment Officer of Valor, Antonio J. Gracias, serves as one of the directors of the Company. The Valor transaction was deemed to be a failed sale-leaseback transaction and the Company recorded the related debt of $455 million and $4,052 million within Debt and finance leases, current and Debt and finance leases, net of current, respectively, as of December 31, 2025 in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, and $66 million in Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Refer to Note 10, Debt for additional details. The related asset is recorded within Property, plant, and equipment, net in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. In 2025, Elon Musk, through his trust, purchased $1,421 million of common stock from current and former employees. Other transactions with Tesla and other related parties during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 were immaterial. F-58


 
Note 19 - Segments Following the Mergers, the Company evaluated how to view and measure performance of the combined company and potential realignment of individual entity’s historical segment structure. Following this evaluation, the Company determined that as a combined company, effective in Q1 2026, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), organizes the Company, manages resource allocations, and measures performance among three operating and reportable segments: (i) Space, (ii) Connectivity, and (iii) AI. Prior period presentations for segments conform to the current segment reporting structure. The Company’s CODM assesses performance and allocates resources to operating segments based on segment income (loss) from operations by comparing actual income (loss) from operations to historical results and previously forecasted financial information. The Company’s CODM does not evaluate operating and reportable segments using asset or liability information. The following tables present information as to revenues, significant segment expenses, and income (loss) from operations by the Company’s reportable segments: Year Ended December 31, 2025 Space Connectivity AI Total Reportable Segments Revenue ............................................................. $ 4,086 $ 11,387 $ 3,201 $ 18,674 Costs and expenses Cost of revenue ................................................. 1,352 5,921 2,178 9,451 Research and development ............................... 3,004 575 5,064 8,643 Selling, general, and administrative ................. 349 468 1,827 2,644 Restructuring charges ....................................... — — 487 487 Impairment ........................................................ 38 — — 38 Total costs and expenses ................................ 4,743 6,964 9,556 21,263 Income (loss) from operations .........................

Note 20 - Restructuring In 2022. X, an indirect subsidiary of the Company (through the X Merger and subsequently, xAI Merger), initiated global employee workforce reductions, the effects of which continued through 2025. The charges associated with the workforce reduction include cash severance expense and other termination benefits. Restructuring charges also include impairment of operating lease right-of-use assets for excess office space and related leasehold improvements and office equipment, as well as lease termination penalties for office space terminated before the end of the lease term as a result of the workforce reduction. Total charges of $487 million, $147 million, and $77 million associated with the workforce reduction were recorded in Restructuring charges in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. Additionally, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $36 million, and $54 million related to its leasehold improvements and office equipment, and restructuring charges of $30 million, and $106 million for operating lease right-of-use assets as part of its facilities consolidation efforts for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The following table is a summary of the changes in the restructuring liabilities for each period presented, included within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and Other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets: Restructuring liabilities as of December 31, 2023 ................................................................................ $ 8 Severance and other personnel costs ................................................................................................. 147 Cash payments ...................................................................................................................................

F-61


 
Officer Equity Awards In January 2026, the Company granted 1,000 million performance-based restricted shares of Class B common stock to Elon Musk. The restricted shares vest upon (i) the Company’s achievement of specified market capitalization milestones across 15 equal tranches ranging from $500 billion to $7.5 trillion, with each milestone reflecting $500 billion in additional valuation, and (ii) the Company’s establishment of a permanent human colony on Mars with at least one million inhabitants, in each case, subject to Mr. Musk’s continued employment. In March 2026, the Company cancelled Mr. Musk’s xAI Award and replaced it with a grant of 302.1 million performance-based restricted shares of Class B common stock, which vest upon (i) the achievement of specified market capitalization milestones across 12 equal tranches ranging from $1.065 trillion to $6.565 trillion, with each milestone reflecting $500 billion in additional valuation, and (ii) the Company’s completion of non-Earth-based data centers capable of delivering 100 terawatts of compute per year, in each case, subject to Mr. Musk’s continued employment. In January 2026, the Company approved an amendment to 4 million performance-based stock options granted to Bret Johnsen, Chief Financial Officer, that were originally issued in 2024. In lieu of vesting based on free cash flow achievement in excess of a baseline, 371 thousand of the stock options will vest for each $10 billion in adjusted EBITDA achieved during the 2025 through 2029 fiscal years, assessed on an annual basis. For purposes of this award, adjusted EBITDA is calculated as income from operations excluding (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) share-based compensation, (iii) impairment, and (iv) restructuring impacts. Once a tranche of the stock options have become earned as a result of the Company’s adjusted EBITDA performance as of the end of a particular fiscal year, such stock options remain subject to an additional one-year and one day service-based vesting requirement following December 31 of the fiscal year in which such tranche was earned. The number of options granted was not changed in the amendment. None of the stock options became earned on account of the Company’s adjusted EBITDA performance for the year ended December 31, 2025. Share Repurchases Between January and March 2026, the Company repurchased Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Common Stock from eligible current and former employees as well as third-party investors totaling $1,396 million. Sale-Leaseback Transaction In January 2026, and as further amended on February 18, 2026, CTC entered into an equipment lease agreement with Valor for certain AI infrastructure hardware (“Valor transaction II”). Similar to the Valor transaction, the Valor transaction II was considered to be a transaction with a related party. The Valor transaction II is deemed to be a failed sale-leaseback transaction and the Company recorded the related debt of $5,365 million in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. xAI Merger Closing Pursuant to the terms of the xAI Merger on February 2, 2026, the Company issued, prior to the 2026 Stock Split, 321.7 million shares of Class A Common Stock, 121.7 million shares of Class B Common Stock and paid $2,947 million in cash to holders of xAI Common Stock and Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. Refer to Note 13, Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Shareholders’ Equity for additional details. Tesla’s xAI Investment and SpaceX Class A Common Stock Issuance In January 2026, Tesla entered into an agreement with xAI to invest $2,000 million via a purchase of xAI Series E Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. Pursuant to the terms of that agreement and a letter agreement entered into between xAI and Tesla on January 16, 2026, xAI’s issuance of the shares of Series E Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, and Tesla’s payment therefore, was conditioned upon the receipt of required regulatory approvals. Following the xAI Merger, Tesla’s right to acquire Series E Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock of xAI was converted into the right to acquire SpaceX Class A common stock. On March 12, 2026, following expiration of the F-62


 
applicable regulatory waiting period, SpaceX issued 3.8 million shares of Class A Common Stock (on a pre-2026 Stock Split basis) to Tesla in accordance with the terms of the foregoing agreements. Tesla Collaboration In March 2026, the Company announced a collaboration with Tesla to build a chip manufacturing facility (referred to as Terafab). SpaceX Bridge Loan Credit Agreement In March 2026, SpaceX entered into a new bridge loan credit agreement (“SpaceX Bridge Loan”) for $20,000 million with a syndicate of banks. The SpaceX Bridge Loan matures on September 2, 2027 with two three- month extensions, at the option of the Company, reaching a final maturity date of March 2, 2028. The SpaceX Bridge Loan proceeds were used to extinguish and pay off the X B-1 Term Loan, X B-3 Term Loan, xAI Fixed Rate Loan, xAI Floating Rate Loan, and the xAI 12.5% Senior Secured Notes. The SpaceX Bridge Loan bears interest at a rate per annum of (i) between 0.75%-1.75%, dependent upon the debt rating of the Company, plus the relevant Term SOFR or (ii) the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, (b) the Prime Rate, (c) Term SOFR plus 1.0% and (d) 1.0%, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% (depending on the Company’s debt rating). Obligations under the SpaceX Bridge Loan were guaranteed jointly and severally by certain subsidiaries of the Company. The SpaceX Bridge Loan is repayable at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. The Company is required to meet various covenants, including meeting certain reporting requirements, and certain financial covenants. Concurrently with the SpaceX Bridge Loan, the Company repaid the outstanding principal and accrued interests of the X B-1 Term Loan, X B-3 Term Loan, xAI Fixed Rate Term Loan, xAI Floating Rate Term Loan and xAI 12.5% Secured Senior Notes for an aggregate amount of $18,905 million, including $1,163 million of prepayment penalty. Purchase Commitments In March 2026, the Company executed a purchase agreement with an unaffiliated third party to acquire additional turbines for the AI infrastructure totaling $805 million through 2029. Note 22 - Subsequent Events to the Original Issuance of the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) The Company has evaluated subsequent events that occurred from the date the consolidated financial statements were originally issued on March 30, 2026 through May 7, 2026, the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be reissued, and determined that the following subsequent events require disclosure in the consolidated financial statements. Collaboration Agreement On April 19, 2026, the Company entered into a compute agreement with Anysphere, Inc., doing business as Cursor, a San Francisco-based private software company (“Cursor”). Pursuant to the compute agreement, the Company will collaborate with Cursor to improve the Company’s existing models, including Grok, and potentially to jointly develop AI models and related model-specific deliverables. Concurrent with the compute agreement, the Company also entered into an option agreement for the right, but not the obligation, to acquire Cursor. The option agreement generally provides that the Company may exercise the call option at any time during the 30-day period following the earlier of (i) seven trading days following the completion of the Company’s IPO and (ii) September 30, 2026. Exercise of the call option is in the Company’s sole discretion and subject to further approval by the board of directors. Cursor is also subject to certain exclusivity obligations under the option agreement. The consideration for the acquisition of Cursor would consist of shares of Class A common stock based on an implied equity value of Cursor of $60.0 billion, and the price of Class A common stock that equals, if the acquisition closed prior to the completion of this offering, the most recent quarterly valuation, or, if the acquisition closed after the completion of the Company’s IPO, the volume-weighted average closing price thereof over the seven consecutive trading days immediately preceding the closing of the acquisition. If either (i) the Company decides to terminate the option agreement or (ii) Cursor is eligible to and decides to terminate due to the F-63


 
Company’s material breach of the option agreement, Cursor is entitled to a $1.5 billion termination fee under the option agreement and an $8.5 billion deferred services fee under the compute agreement. These fees are payable in cash (or Class A common stock, if the Company’s IPO has not been consummated at the time the fees become payable). The Company has conducted preliminary due diligence on Cursor’s business, technology and operations, and expect to continue such diligence in connection with any decision to exercise the call option. The Company cannot predict whether the Company will elect to exercise the call option or, if exercised, whether the acquisition will close on the anticipated terms or at all. Sale-Leaseback Transaction On April 24, 2026, CTC entered into a five-year equipment lease agreement with Valor, a related party, for certain AI infrastructure hardware (“Valor transaction III”) for total undiscounted lease payments of $6,587 million. Asset Acquisition On April 30, 2026, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with an unaffiliated third party to purchase certain mobile gas turbines and related packages for approximately $2,000 million (the “Turbine Acquisition”). The closing of the Turbine Acquisition is expected to occur in May 2026 and is subject to customary closing conditions. The seller has also agreed to enter into a post-closing services agreement to support the Company's turbine operations. The Turbine Acquisition will help provide power to the Company's data centers. Cloud Services Agreement On May 3, 2026, the Company entered into a cloud services agreement with Anthropic PBC, an AI research and development public benefit corporation, with respect to access to compute capacity. Pursuant to this agreement, the customer has agreed to pay a monthly fee through May 2029, with capacity ramping in May 2026 at a reduced fee. The agreement may be terminated by either party upon 90 days’ notice. The customer will retain ownership and intellectual property rights in its content, AI models, and related data. F-64

SPACE EXPLORATION TECHNOLOGIES CORP. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (tables in millions, except per share data) (unaudited) Note 1 - Nature of Business Description of Business Space Exploration Technologies Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, collectively referred to as the “Company” or “SpaceX,” operate three segments – (i) the Space segment designs, manufactures, and launches reusable rockets to provide high cadence, reliable, and affordable access to space at unprecedented scale, (ii) the Connectivity segment operates a worldwide high-speed, low-latency broadband network powered by thousands of Starlink satellites in Low-Earth Orbit, delivering connectivity to millions of consumer, enterprise, and government customers through our Starlink offering, and (iii) the AI segment operates a vertically integrated AI platform spanning a frontier LLM Grok, AI solutions for consumer and enterprise customers, X — a real-time information, entertainment, and free speech platform — and AI computational infrastructure. On February 2, 2026 (“xAI Merger Date”), the Company completed its acquisition of X.AI Holdings Corp. (“xAI”), pursuant to which xAI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“xAI Merger”). Prior to the xAI Merger, on March 28, 2025, xAI completed its acquisition of X Holdings Corp. (“X”) and X.AI Corp., in which X and X.AI Corp. became wholly-owned subsidiaries of xAI (“X Merger”, and collectively with xAI Merger, “Mergers”). X.AI Corp began operations in March 2023 and Twitter, Inc. (“Twitter”) was acquired by Mr. Elon Musk in October 2022. The Mergers were each effected through a share exchange. The Mergers have been accounted for as reorganizations of entities under common control as Mr. Elon Musk had a controlling financial interest in the Company, xAI and X through his majority voting interest in each such entity during the periods presented in these consolidated financial statements. The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared to reflect the retrospective combination of the net assets of the entities at their historical carrying amounts for all periods presented. No new goodwill or other intangible assets have been recorded and all historical related party transactions between the entities have been eliminated in consolidation. The capital stock and shareholders’ equity for all periods presented reflects a continuation of the historical SpaceX capital stock and shareholders’ equity, combined with the historical capital stock and shareholders’ equity of X and xAI merged under common control, as adjusted by the respective exchange ratios used to effect the Mergers, except for xAI’s historical redeemable convertible preferred stock through the date of the xAI Merger. All of xAI’s redeemable convertible preferred stock were converted to SpaceX common stock as part of the xAI Merger and are presented as such from the date of the xAI Merger. This presentation constitutes a change in reporting entity. Refer to Note 12 - Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Shareholders’ Equity for additional details. On May 4, 2026, the Company effected a five-for-one forward stock split of its authorized, issued, and outstanding shares of Class A, Class B, and Class C Common Stock (“2026 Stock Split”). The conversion rate of SpaceX Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock was proportionately adjusted to factor in the 2026 Stock Split. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the 2026 Stock Split for all periods presented. Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Unaudited Interim Financial Statements The consolidated financial statements, including the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026, the consolidated statements of operations, the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, the consolidated statements of redeemable convertible preferred stock and shareholders’ equity and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, as well as other information disclosed in the accompanying notes, are unaudited. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The interim consolidated financial statements and the F-73


 
accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The interim consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the periods presented. The consolidated results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or for any other future years or interim periods. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Amounts which are subject to significant judgment and use of estimates include revenues recognized over time using the cost-to-cost input method, the determination of valuation allowances associated with deferred tax assets and estimates of tax liabilities, reserves for excess and obsolete inventory, fair value of indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill, useful lives of property, plant, and equipment, the determination of incremental borrowing rate for lease liabilities, litigation and settlement costs, and the valuation and assumptions underlying share-based compensation. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates compared to historical experience and current trends, which forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. In addition, the Company engages valuation specialists to assist in the valuation of equity instruments. Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash The Company’s total cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, as presented in the consolidated statements of cash flows, are as follows: March 31, 2026 December 31, 2025 Cash and cash equivalents ......................................................................................... $ 15,852 $ 24,747 Restricted cash included in prepaid expenses and other current assets ..................... 67 182 Restricted cash included in other assets ..................................................................... 689 195 Total as presented in the consolidated statements of cash flows ........................ $ 16,608 $ 25,124 Significant Accounting Policies There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies from the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements. The ASU improves the guidance in Topic 270 by improving the navigability of the required interim disclosures and clarifying when that guidance is applicable. The amendments also provide additional guidance on what disclosures should be provided in interim reporting periods. The amendments add to Topic 270 a principle that requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The ASU is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU can either be applied prospectively or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. F-74


 
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. The amendments in this update provide a practical expedient permitting an entity to assume that conditions at the balance sheet date remain unchanged over the life of the asset when estimating expected credit losses for current classified accounts receivable and contract assets. The Company adopted this ASU on a prospective basis effective January 1, 2026. While this ASU was adopted, the Company did not elect the practical expedient permitted under this ASU. Therefore, the adoption has no impact on the consolidated financial statements. Note 3 - Revenue Revenue disaggregated by products and services is as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 2025 Products ..................................................................................................................... $ 380 $ 352 Services ...................................................................................................................... 4,314 3,715 Total revenues ......................................................................................................... $ 4,694 $ 4,067 All of products revenue is attributable to the Connectivity segment.

Deferred revenue primarily relates to Space agreements and Connectivity enterprise and government contracts. Total deferred revenue as of December 31, 2025 was $12,116 million, of which $1,165 million was recognized as revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Total deferred revenue as of March 31, 2026 was $13,236 million. Backlog The Company’s backlog represents the transaction price of performance obligations to customers for which work remains to be performed. The amount of backlog increases with new contracts or additions to existing contracts and decreases as revenue is recognized on existing contracts. Contracts are included in backlog when an enforceable agreement has been reached. Backlog does not include amounts related to performance obligations that are billed and recognized as they are delivered, optional purchases that do not represent material rights and any estimated amounts of variable consideration that are subject to constraint. Backlog totaled $27,621 million as of March 31, F-75


 
2026, of which $13,236 million was recognized as deferred revenue at March 31, 2026.

SpaceX Bridge Loan General. In March 2026, SpaceX entered into a new bridge loan credit agreement (the “SpaceX Bridge Loan”) with a syndicate of lenders, providing for an unsecured bridge term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $20,000 million. The SpaceX Bridge Loan matures on September 2, 2027, with two three-month extensions at the Company’s option, subject to the absence of a continuing default and the payment of an extension fee of 0.25% of the aggregate outstanding principal per extension, resulting in a final extended maturity date in March 2028. Proceeds. The proceeds of the SpaceX Bridge Loan were used to repay the X B-1 Term Loan, the X B-3 Term Loan, the xAI Fixed Rate Loan, the xAI Floating Rate Loan, and the xAI 12.5% Senior Secured Notes (as defined and described below). The remaining proceeds were used for general corporate purposes. Interest Rates. The SpaceX Bridge Loan bears interest, at the Company’s election, at a rate per annum equal to (i) Term SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.75%-1.75% (depending on the Company’s debt rating), or (ii) a base rate equal to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, (b) the Prime Rate, (c) Term SOFR plus 1.00% and (d) 1.00%, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% (depending on the Company’s debt rating). In addition, the Company is obligated to pay duration fees equal to 0.125% of outstanding principal on the first anniversary of closing and 0.25% of outstanding principal on the fifteen-month anniversary of closing. The effective interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the SpaceX Bridge Loan was 4.58% as of March 31, 2026. Principal Repayments. The SpaceX Bridge Loan may be prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. The Company is required to use the net proceeds of certain debt financings to repay amounts outstanding under the SpaceX Bridge Loan and to apply the net proceeds of a qualified initial public offering (“IPO”) to repay such amounts within six months following receipt. Guarantors and Collateral. The obligations of the Company under the SpaceX Bridge Loan are guaranteed on a joint and several basis by X Corp., X.AI LLC, and CTC Property LLC (each a subsidiary of the Company). Covenants. The SpaceX Bridge Loan contains customary events of default and affirmative and negative covenants, including restrictions on liens, subsidiary indebtedness, fundamental changes (including a prohibition on the disposition of Starlink assets and other material businesses outside the consolidated group), and changes in the nature of the Company’s business. The sole financial maintenance covenant requires the Company to maintain a Consolidated Leverage Ratio — defined as consolidated funded indebtedness (net of 85% of unrestricted cash) to Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the SpaceX Bridge Loan) — of no greater than 3.75 to 1.0 as of the end of each fiscal quarter, with a temporary step-up to 4.25 to 1.0 for four fiscal quarters following a qualifying acquisition of at least $1.0 billion. The Company was in compliance with the covenants as of March 31, 2026. Accounting Treatment.

All references to “Class” refer to that particular class of SpaceX Common Stock and all references to “Series” refer to that particular series of SpaceX Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. As of March 31, 2026, the total number of shares of SpaceX Common Stock the Company is authorized to issue is 54,657 million shares, each with a par value of $0.001 per share, except for Class D, which has a par value of $0.0001 per share. 36,132 million shares are Class A, 6,125 million shares are Class B, 10,000 million shares are Class C, and 2,400 million shares are Class D. The total number of SpaceX Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock that the Company is authorized to issue is 2,607 million shares, of which 2,400 million shares are undesignated. With the exception of the expanded conversion rights described below, there were no changes to the dividend provisions, liquidation preferences, conversion rights, redemption rights or the voting rights of the SpaceX Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and SpaceX Common Stock during the three months ended March 31, 2026. In May 2026, the Board approved the 2026 Stock Split, pursuant to which each share of the Class A, Class B, and Class C SpaceX Common Stock issued and outstanding was split into five shares of the same class of SpaceX Common Stock. xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Common Stock On March 28, 2025, xAI adopted an Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, which established its capital structure and designated multiple classes of common stock and several series of redeemable convertible preferred stock. The Articles were subsequently amended and restated through January 30, 2026 (collectively, the “xAI Articles of Incorporation”) to add and authorize additional series of redeemable convertible preferred stock with no economic changes to any previously existing series. Pursuant to the xAI Articles of Incorporation, xAI’s authorized capitalization prior to the xAI Merger consisted of three classes of common, stock, which are designated Class A common stock (“xAI Class A”), Class B common stock (“xAI Class B”), Limited Voting common stock (“xAI Limited Voting”), (collectively the “xAI Common Stock”) and several series of redeemable convertible preferred stock (collectively the “xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock”).

Effect of the xAI Merger xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock On xAI Merger Date, all outstanding shares of xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock converted into shares of SpaceX Common Stock, based on the share-for-share exchange mechanics specified in the Merger Agreement. Each share of xAI Series A-1, B, C, D, and E redeemable convertible preferred stock (classified as “xAI Low Vote Stock”) was converted into 0.1433 shares of SpaceX Class A Common Stock per preferred share (on a pre-2026 Stock Split basis), rounded up to the nearest whole number for fractional shares. Each share of xAI Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock (classified as “xAI High Vote Stock”) was converted into 0.1433 shares of SpaceX Class B Common Stock per preferred share (on a pre-2026 Stock Split basis), rounded up to the nearest whole number for fractional shares.

Upon conversion, all shares of xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock were canceled and retired, and former xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock shareholders F-85


 
received the applicable shares of SpaceX Common Stock. Any shares of xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock previously held by the Company were canceled and retired and did not receive any consideration. Because the xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock was legally outstanding during all historical periods prior to the xAI Merger and represented a separate equity class of a legally distinct predecessor entity, the conversion of xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock into SpaceX Common Stock is recognized only as of the closing of the xAI Merger, and not retrospectively. Accordingly, the historical consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of redeemable convertible preferred stock and shareholders’ equity reflect the xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock as outstanding xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock consistent with its legal form and rights during those periods and are not recast on an as-converted basis for all periods presented prior to the xAI Merger Date. The impact of the conversion is presented separately in the consolidated statements of redeemable convertible preferred stock and shareholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2026. xAI Warrants xAI also issued warrants to customers that were outstanding as of the effective date of the xAI Merger, which had a ten-year term originally set to expire in 2035, with an exercise price equal to the par value of the stock, and vesting terms that resulted in the warrants vesting proportionally to the payments received under the related agreement. The closing of the xAI Merger triggered an acceleration clause in which all outstanding xAI warrants, both vested and unvested components, were automatically exercised on a cashless basis exercised and converted into fully vested SpaceX Class A Common Stock at the exchange ratio of 0.1433 (on a pre-2026 Stock Split basis). xAI and X Common Stock Upon the effective date of the xAI Merger, every outstanding share of xAI Common Stock, whether Class A, Class B, or Limited Voting, converted into the right to receive SpaceX Common Stock at a fixed exchange ratio of 0.1433 SpaceX shares per share of xAI Common Stock, unless the holder was an eligible service provider and elected to receive cash of $75.46 per share of xAI Class A or Class B (on a pre-2026 Stock Split basis). No fractional SpaceX shares were issued and all share amounts were rounded up to the nearest whole number. Any shares of xAI Common Stock previously held by the Company were canceled and retired and did not receive any consideration. Effect of the X Merger Upon the effective date of the X Merger, each class of common stock of X Holdings Corp. (“X Common Stock”) was converted to 2.776 shares of xAI Common Stock of the same class (rounded down to the nearest whole share), each class of common stock of X.AI Corp. (“xAI Corp. Common Stock”) was converted to 1.000 share of xAI Common Stock of the same class, and each series of X.AI Corp. preferred stock (“xAI Corp. Preferred Stock”) (other than shares held by X or any of its subsidiaries) was converted to 1.000 share of xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock of the same series. As a result of the Mergers, all of X, X.AI Corp. and xAI Common Stock are being presented in the historical financial statements as if they had been converted into SpaceX Common Stock at the applicable exchange rate for all periods presented through the date of the xAI Merger. As such, all shares of historical X, X.AI Corp. and xAI Common Stock are included in the share counts for SpaceX Common Stock below. X.AI Corp. and xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock are being presented in the consolidated financial statements at historical values with an adjustment to the conversion rate at the applicable exchange ratio per the xAI Merger.

For the period from inception through March 31, 2026, no dividends were declared on SpaceX Common Stock. Liquidation Rights In the event of a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, upon the completion of the distributions required with respect to the SpaceX Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, if assets remain in the Company, the then remaining assets will be distributed on an equal priority, pro rata basis to the holders of SpaceX Common Stock. Conversion Rights Each share of Class B is convertible at the option of the holder, at any time, into one share of Class A.

Reserve for Unissued Shares of Common Stock The Company is required to reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of SpaceX Common Stock such number of shares sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of SpaceX Redeemable F-90


 
Convertible Preferred Stock and Class B, as applicable, plus shares granted and available for grant under the Company’s share plans. The amount of such shares of the SpaceX Common Stock reserved for these purposes at March 31, 2026 is as follows: Number of Shares Class A Class B Class C Class D Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock issued (low-vote) ................................................................. 3,448 — 3,448 — Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock issued (high-vote) ............................................................... 3,274 3,274 3,274 — Outstanding Class B .................................................... 2,421 — — — Outstanding stock options ........................................... 8 450 476 — Outstanding RSUs ....................................................... 49 1 79 — Future grants under share-based compensation ........... 150 — 350 — 9,350 3,725 7,627 — Share Repurchases During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company repurchased $2,413 million or 25.4 million shares of SpaceX Common Stock from eligible current and former xAI employees as part of the xAI Merger. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company also repurchased of 30.5 million shares of SpaceX Common Stock and 2.1 million shares of SpaceX Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock for $1,933 million in a number of unrelated transactions with existing shareholders at their then-current fair market value. Similarly, the Company repurchased $508 million or 28.0 million shares of SpaceX Common Stock from eligible current and former employees and existing shareholders during the three ended March 31, 2025. The Company only repurchased shares held by eligible participants for more than six months at a purchase price per share equal to the then current fair market value. All SpaceX shares repurchased to date have been retired. F-91


 
Note 13 - Earnings per Share The following table presents the reconciliation of net loss attributable to common shareholders to net loss used in computing basic and diluted net income loss per share of common stock: Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 2025 Numerator: Net loss ...................................................................................................................... $ (4,276) $ (528) Less: Deemed dividend(1) ...................................................................................... 671 — Net loss attributable to common shareholders - basic and diluted ............................ (4,947) (528) Denominator: Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding - basic and diluted ............ 3,884 2,875 Loss per share attributable to common shareholders Basic and Diluted .................................................................................................. $ (1.27) $ (0.18) __________________ (1) The excess of fair market value over the consideration transferred for the repurchase of SpaceX Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock was treated as a deemed dividend and resulted in an increase to net loss attributable to common shareholders in the calculation of loss per share. The following potentially dilutive securities on an as-converted basis are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common shareholders for the periods presented because the impact of including them would be anti-dilutive (refer to Note 14, Share-based Compensation for additional details): Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 2025 xAI Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock .......................................................... — 1,155 SpaceX Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock .................................................... 6,723 6,760 Share-based compensation ........................................................................................ 598 674 The table above excludes 1,319.1 million and 14.3 million share-based compensation awards outstanding as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, as these awards are subject to performance and market conditions that were not met as of those dates. Note 14 - Share-based Compensation X and xAI Mergers As part of the xAI Merger, each xAI option for a share of xAI common stock outstanding and unexercised at the time of the xAI Merger (vested and unvested) was converted into a SpaceX option to receive 0.1433 shares of SpaceX Class A or Class B Common Stock (on a pre-2026 Stock Split basis), as applicable, under the same terms and conditions (including the vesting and exercisability conditions) as the original xAI stock options at an exercise price equal to the original xAI option exercise price divided by 0.1433. Each xAI RSU that was vested and outstanding was converted to the right to receive 0.1433 of a share of SpaceX Class A or Class B Common Stock (on a pre-2026 Stock Split basis), as applicable. Each xAI RSU that was unvested was converted to 0.1433 of a SpaceX RSU. Each xAI RSA was converted to 0.1433 shares of SpaceX RSA for SpaceX Class A or Class B Common Stock (on a pre-2026 Stock Split basis), as applicable, with the same terms and conditions (including the vesting terms). Refer to Note 12, Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Shareholders’ Equity for additional details. F-92


 
As part of the X Merger, each X RSU that was outstanding was converted to a xAI RSU to receive 2.776 shares of xAI Common Stock. General The Company grants RSUs, RSAs, and non-statutory options to eligible employees, key executives, and certain non- employee service providers (collectively, the “Plans”). The Company also has a number of performance-based awards. The Company offers an ESPP, under which eligible employees can purchase the Company’s Common Stock at a discounted price. The Company also offers a Non-Qualified Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“NQ ESPP”), under which employees can purchase the Company’s Common Stock at the fair market value. In April 2026, the Company cancelled the NQ ESPP. Officer Equity Awards In January 2026, the Company granted 1,000 million performance-based restricted shares of Class B common stock to Elon Musk. The restricted shares vest upon (i) the Company’s achievement of specified market capitalization milestones across 15 equal tranches ranging from $500 billion to $7.5 trillion, with each milestone reflecting $500 billion in additional valuation, and (ii) the Company’s establishment of a permanent human colony on Mars with at least one million inhabitants, in each case, subject to Mr. Musk’s continued employment (“SpaceX CEO Award”). The grant date fair value of the SpaceX CEO Award was determined to be $90.40 to $95.92 per share for each tranche. In November 2025, the Company granted a performance-based award (“xAI Award”) to Elon Musk consisting of twelve tranches with certain market, performance and service conditions. In March 2026, the Company cancelled the xAI Award and replaced it with a grant of 302.1 million performance-based restricted shares of Class B common stock, which vest upon (i) the achievement of specified market capitalization milestones across 12 equal tranches ranging from $1.065 trillion to $6.565 trillion, with each milestone reflecting $500 billion in additional valuation, and (ii) the Company’s completion of non-Earth-based data centers capable of delivering 100 terawatts of compute per year, in each case, subject to Mr. Musk’s continued employment (“AI CEO Award”). The grant date fair value of the AI CEO Award was determined to be $91.47 to $95.92 per share for each tranche. The cancellation of the xAI Award and the grant of the AI CEO Award was considered an accounting modification. Share-based compensation will continue to be recognized over the original remaining service period equal to the fair value of the portion of the original xAI Award that was deemed probable of vesting as of the modification date. No incremental expense will be recognized based on the modified terms of the new AI CEO Award until the new performance conditions are deemed probable of vesting. Share-based compensation expense recognition for the SpaceX CEO Award and AI CEO Award commences when the performance condition milestone is considered probable of achievement for each award regardless of the progress made towards achieving the next market capitalization milestone. As of March 31, 2026, both performance milestones were considered improbable and no share-based compensation expense has been recognized related to the SpaceX CEO Award and AI CEO Award. Once the performance milestone is considered probable of achievement, share-based compensation expense associated with the tranche will be recognized over the expected achievement date of the performance milestone. In January 2026, the Company approved an amendment to 4 million performance-based stock options granted to Bret Johnsen, Chief Financial Officer, that were originally issued in 2024 (“CFO Award”). In lieu of vesting based on free cash flow achievement in excess of a baseline, 371 thousand of the stock options will vest for each $10 billion in adjusted EBITDA achieved during the 2025 through 2029 fiscal years, assessed on an annual basis. For purposes of this award, adjusted EBITDA is calculated as income from operations excluding (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) share-based compensation, (iii) impairment, and (iv) restructuring impacts. Once a tranche of the stock options have become earned as a result of the Company’s adjusted EBITDA performance as of the end of a particular fiscal year, such stock options remain subject to an additional one-year and one day service-based vesting requirement following December 31 of the fiscal year in which such tranche was earned. The number of options granted was not changed in the amendment. The impact of the modification of the CFO Award was not material. F-93


 
Fair Value Determination The fair value and derived service period of the SpaceX CEO Award and AI CEO Award are estimated on the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The weighted-average assumptions that were used to calculate the grant date fair value of the SpaceX CEO Award and modification date fair value of the AI CEO Award are as follows: Expected term (years) ........................................................................................................................... 30.0 Volatility ............................................................................................................................................... 45.0 % Risk-free interest rate ............................................................................................................................ 4.91 % Dividend yield ....................................................................................................................................... — % The SpaceX CEO Award and AI CEO Award do not have a defined performance period other than Mr. Musk’s continued employment through the date each milestone is achieved. Therefore, an analysis was performed for an expected term of ten to fifty years and a midpoint of thirty years was used. The Company determined the expected volatility assumption using the frequency of daily historical prices of comparable public companies’ common stock for a period equal to the expected term. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates on U.S. Government securities for a period consistent with the expected term. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its Common Stock and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Summary of Share-Based Compensation Information The following table summarizes our share-based compensation expense by line item in the consolidated statements of operations: Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 2025 Cost of revenue .......................................................................................................... $ 76 $ 39 Research and development ........................................................................................ 362 75 Selling, general, and administrative .......................................................................... 201 118 Total .................................................................................................................... $ 639 $ 232 During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, share-based compensation expense capitalized to the consolidated balance sheets was $60 million and $30 million, respectively. Note 15 - Income Taxes The Company’s effective tax rate was (0.1)% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to (2.7)% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The change in the Company’s effective tax rate was primarily due to the changes in the mix of its jurisdictional earnings. The Company’s effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 as compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% were primarily impacted by the mix of its jurisdictional earnings subject to different tax rates and the valuation allowances on its deferred tax assets. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considered whether it is more likely than not that some or all of its net deferred tax assets will not be realizable based on the relevant weight of all positive and negative evidence. As of March 31, 2026, the Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets in the United States, with the exception of certain state deferred tax assets and transferrable investment tax credits that are expected to be realizable. The Company has also recorded valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions where it concluded that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company will continue to assess the realizability of its deferred tax assets in future periods and will adjust the valuation allowance as necessary based on changes in facts and circumstances. F-94


 
Note 16 - Commitments and Contingencies Unconditional Obligations During the three months ended March 31, 2026, there have been no material changes to the Company’s unconditional obligation since December 31, 2025 other than the execution of certain purchase agreements with an unaffiliated third party to acquire additional turbines for the AI infrastructure totaling $925 million through 2029. Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds The Company had outstanding letters of credit of $517 million at March 31, 2026 related to various customer contracts, insurance agreements, and facility lease agreements. All of the outstanding letters of credit were collateralized by restricted cash. The Company also had surety bonds of $447 million for self-insured workers’ compensation programs and other governmental licenses at March 31, 2026. Legal Proceedings In the normal course of its business, the Company is involved from time to time in various arbitrations, class actions, commercial litigation, investigations and other legal, regulatory or governmental actions, including the significant matters described below that could have a material impact on our results of operations. The Company assesses, in conjunction with its legal counsel, the need to record a liability for litigation and contingencies. With respect to the cases, actions, and inquiries described below, the Company evaluates the associated developments on a regular basis and will accrue a liability when it believes a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. In addition, the Company believes there is a reasonable possibility that it may incur a loss in some of these matters and the loss may be material or exceed its estimated ranges of possible loss. The outcomes of the matters described in this section, such as whether the likelihood of loss is remote, reasonably possible, or probable, or if and when the reasonably possible range of loss is estimable, are inherently uncertain, and unless specified otherwise, possible losses are not reasonably estimable at this time. If one or more of these matters were resolved against the Company for amounts above management’s estimates, the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, including in a particular reporting period in which any such outcome becomes probable and estimable, could be materially adversely affected. In November 2022, the European Union’s Digital Services Act (“DSA”) came into force as a result of which X has to comply with extensive content moderation and other duties. The Company published its first Transparency Report under the DSA in November 2023. In December 2023, the European Commission (“EC”) opened a formal investigation into X and its Irish subsidiary, Twitter International Unlimited Company (“TIUC”), which was later renamed to X Internet Unlimited Company (XIUC). On July 12, 2024, in relation to alleged breaches of Articles 25(1), 39 and 40(12) of the DSA, the EC issued preliminary findings that X’s blue checkmark is deceptive, its advertisement repository does not meet DSA requirements, and it grants inadequate access to data to third-party researchers. On September 26, 2024, XIUC and X submitted their observations challenging the EC’s preliminary findings. On December 5, 2025, the EC delivered a final decision in which it upheld its preliminary findings and imposed a fine of EUR 120 million on XIUC, X., x.AI, and Elon Musk (together, the “parties”). On February 16, 2026, the parties challenged the EC’s decision in the General Court of the European Union. This challenge remains pending. In March 2016, non-practicing entity Youtoo Technologies filed suit against Twitter, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas alleging its Vine and Periscope products infringe Youtoo’s video- sharing patents (the ‘304, ‘506, and ‘997 patents). On Twitter’s motion, the district court dismissed the ‘304 and ’506 patents as invalid. Twitter filed petitions for Inter Partes Review before the Patent Trial and Appeals Board (PTAB) challenging all three patents-in-suit. The PTAB upheld the ‘304 and ‘506 Patents and invalidated the ‘997 Patent; the Federal Circuit affirmed. On March 16, 2020, Plaintiff (now Vidstream LLC, which allegedly acquired the patents from Youtoo Technologies in a bankruptcy proceeding), moved the Court to reconsider its earlier ruling invalidating the ‘304 and ‘506 patents. On April 1, 2022, the Court reversed its original ruling on the ‘304 and ‘506 patents. On September 27, 2024, Vidstream filed a motion for partial summary judgment, which the Court granted in part. The case went to a jury trial, and on April 16, 2025, the jury rendered a verdict finding (i) that Twitter did not F-95


 
infringe any claim of the ‘506 patent and two out of three claims of the ‘304 patent and that each of those patent claims was invalid, but (ii) that Twitter willfully infringed one claim of the ‘304 patent. The jury awarded Plaintiff $105 million in damages. In November 2025, the district court affirmed the jury’s award and awarded an additional $67 million in prejudgment interest. Twitter has appealed and Vidstream has cross-appealed. Both appeals remain pending before the Federal Circuit. In June 2023, music publishing companies that are members of the National Music Publishers’ Association (the “NMPA”) filed a complaint against X in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, claiming direct, contributory, and vicarious copyright infringement based on Twitter’s alleged failure to expeditiously take down infringing music posted by users after the music publishers allegedly gave Twitter notice of those infringements. The music publishers also allege that Twitter did not suspend the accounts of “repeat infringers,” so that Twitter is not entitled to a “safe harbor” from liability under the DMCA. X filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on August 14, 2023. On March 5, 2024, the Court dismissed plaintiffs’ direct infringement and vicarious infringement claims, and part of plaintiffs’ claim for contributory infringement. X answered the complaint on April 9, 2024. Litigation was stayed from June 11, 2025 to September 9, 2025 for settlement discussions that were not successful. Accordingly, discovery is ongoing. On April 1, 2026, the Court granted the parties’ joint motion for a stay to allow X to file a renewed motion to dismiss the suit based on the Supreme Court’s decision in Cox Comm’s, Inc. v. Sony Music Entm’t. Fact discovery is now closed. In light of this Supreme Court ruling, the parties have stipulated to a May 11, 2026 deadline for the music publishers to amend their complaint with respect to their remaining claims for contributory infringement, and a June 11, 2026 deadline for X to file a renewed motion to dismiss. In September 2023, Dutch foundation Stichting Data Bescherming Nederland (“SDBN”) filed a putative class action lawsuit in the District Court of Amsterdam in the Netherlands against TIUC, Twitter, Inc., X Corp., and Twitter Netherlands b.v. related to Twitter’s operation of the MoPub platform. SDBN primarily claims that MoPub’s real- time bidding ad exchange violated the GDPR. SDBN claims to represent 11 million Dutch internet users who downloaded and used third-party mobile apps containing the MoPub software development kit during the period 2013-2022 and it seeks a monetary award in the range of € 250 to € 2,500 per person. On February 4, 2026, the Court declined to allow the case to proceed as a class action and indicated that it is considering staying the proceedings until the Court of Justice of the European Union has ruled in a separate case concerning the applicability of Dutch class action requirements to GDPR claims. The Twitter parties filed a brief in support of the proposed stay, which the plaintiffs opposed, on March 4, 2026. In August 2024, Dutch foundation Stichting Onderzoek Marktinformatie (SOMI) initiated a collective action in the District Court of Amsterdam in the Netherlands on behalf of approximately 7.8 million Dutch X users. Among other things, SOMI seeks damages against TIUC, X Corp. and Twitter Netherlands B.V. (collectively, the “X entities”) for: (1) alleged data breaches and insufficient security measures; (2) alleged unauthorized microtargeting and lack of transparency; and (3) the alleged failure to moderate hate speech and the obstruction of research, all in violation of the GDPR and/or DSA. The alleged data breaches relate to a Twitter API bug that came to light in 2022 and that had allowed persons who knew the email address or phone number of a user to determine the user’s Twitter ID. SOMI has requested compensation (to be assessed at a later stage) for each member of the class, including symbolic damages of EUR 1 for each member of the class that is allegedly affected by hate speech on the X platform. The X entities filed a procedural defense on March 12, 2025. The court held a hearing on April 2, 2026, and indicated that it would hand down its decision on May 27, 2026. In September 2025, non-practicing entity Search and Share Technologies, LLC (“SaS”) filed a patent complaint against X Corp. in the Federal District Court for the Western District of Texas. SaS alleges that X Corp. infringed on U.S. Patent Nos. 10,180,952 and 11,106,744, through features in its mobile app and website enabling users to interact with content through dedicated interfaces that directly share what other users see in ranked feeds and search results. SaS filed an Amended Complaint on January 5, 2026. On January 20, 2026, X Corp. moved to dismiss SaS’s willful infringement and induced infringement claims. On February 3, 2026, SAS responded to, but did not oppose, X Corp.’s partial motion to dismiss. On February 10, 2026, X Corp. filed its reply. On February 4, 2026, X Corp. filed an IPR petition challenging the ‘744 Patent and on February 18, 2026, filed an IPR petition challenging the '952 Patent. F-96


 
Beginning in January 2026, the Company and certain subsidiaries have been named as defendants in multiple lawsuits arising from Grok’s image-generation and editing features. The complaints generally allege that Grok’s image-generation and editing features enabled the creation and dissemination of nonconsensual explicit images and/ or content representing women and/or children in sexualized contexts. The actions include Jane Doe v. X.AI Corp. and X.AI LLC, instituted in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California on January 23, 2026, and Jane Doe 1 et al. v. X.AI Corp. and X.AI LLC (the “Jane Doe 1 Case”) instituted in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California on March 16, 2026. These cases are putative class actions, asserting claims including, among other things, claims of strict liability, negligence, nuisance, rights of privacy or publicity, and, in the Jane Doe 1 Case, certain federal statutory claims. Plaintiffs in these two cases seek, among other things, compensatory, statutory and punitive damages, restitution, disgorgement and injunctive relief. In addition, a case, Mayor and City Council of Baltimore ex rel. Ebony M. Thompson v. X Corp., X.AI Corp., X.AI LLC, and Space Exploration Technologies Corp, was instituted in the Baltimore City Circuit Court on March 24, 2026 (the “Baltimore Case”). The plaintiff in the Baltimore Case, the Mayor and City Council of Baltimore, asserts similar claims to those in the two cases discussed above under Baltimore’s Consumer Protection Ordinances. The plaintiff in the Baltimore Case seeks statutory penalties and/or injunctive relief. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously in these actions. On April 14, 2026, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the NAACP Mississippi State Conference (together, the “NAACP”) filed suit against X.AI Corp. and MZX Tech, LLC alleging that the mobile gas turbines powering the COLOSSUS II data center with the permission of the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality are in violation of the Clean Air Act because they allegedly constitute stationary sources without the proper permits. On May 6, 2026, the NAACP filed a preliminary injunction motion seeking to enjoin the operation of the turbines. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously in these actions. The Company has recorded an accrual of $399 million for litigation losses that are probable and reasonably estimable in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and Other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026. For other matters, the Company is not currently able to estimate the reasonably possible loss or range of loss. Note 17 - Related Party Transactions The Company periodically does business with certain entities with which its CEO and directors are affiliated. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company purchased $34 million of Megapack products from Tesla, Inc. (“Tesla”) recorded in Property, plant, and equipment, net in the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2025, the Company purchased $506 million of Megapack products and $131 million of Cybertrucks at manufacturer’s suggested retail price from Tesla, recorded in Property, plant, and equipment, net in the consolidated balance sheets. In January 2026, and as further amended on February 18, 2026, CTC entered into an equipment lease agreement with Valor Equity Partners (“Valor”) for certain AI infrastructure hardware (“Valor transaction II”). The founder, CEO and Chief Investment Officer of Valor, Antonio Gracias, serves as one of the directors of the Company. The Valor transaction II was deemed to be a failed sale-leaseback transaction. The Company has previously entered into a similar agreement with Valor for other AI infrastructure hardware. As of March 31, 2026, the Company recorded debt of $1,121 million and $7,920 million within Debt and finance leases, current and Debt and finance leases, net of current, respectively, in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, and $186 million in Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations related to equipment lease agreements with Valor. As of December 31, 2025, the Company recorded debt of $455 million and $4,052 million within Debt and finance leases, current and Debt and finance leases, net of current, respectively, in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet related to equipment lease agreements with Valor. Refer to Note 9, Debt for additional details. The related asset is recorded within Property, plant, and equipment, net in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Other transactions with Tesla and other related parties during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were immaterial. F-97


 
Note 18 - Segments Following the Mergers, the Company evaluated how to view and measure performance of the combined company and potential realignment of individual entity’s historical segment structure. Following this evaluation, the Company determined that as a combined company, effective in Q1 2026, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), organizes the Company, manages resource allocations, and measures performance among three operating and reportable segments: (i) Space, (ii) Connectivity, and (iii) AI. Prior period presentations for segments conform to the current segment reporting structure. The Company’s CODM assesses performance and allocates resources to operating segments based on segment income (loss) from operations by comparing actual income (loss) from operations to historical results and previously forecasted financial information. The Company’s CODM does not evaluate operating and reportable segments using asset or liability information. The following tables present information as to revenues, significant segment expenses, and income (loss) from operations by the Company’s reportable segments: Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 Space Connectivity AI Total Reportable Segments Revenue ............................................................. $ 619 $ 3,257 $ 818 $ 4,694 Costs and expenses Cost of revenue .............................................. 281 1,651 456 2,388 Research and development ............................. 930 205 2,379 3,514 Selling, general and administrative ................ 70 213 463 746 Restructuring charges ..................................... — — (11) (11) Total costs and expenses ........................... 1,281 2,069 3,287 6,637 Income (loss) from operations ..........................

Note 20 - Subsequent Events The Company has evaluated subsequent events that occurred from April 1, 2026 through May 7, 2026, which is the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued, and determined that there were no subsequent events or transactions that required recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements, except as discussed below. Collaboration Agreement On April 19, 2026, the Company entered into a compute agreement with Anysphere, Inc., doing business as Cursor, a San Francisco-based private software company (“Cursor”). Pursuant to the compute agreement, the Company will collaborate with Cursor to improve the Company’s existing models, including Grok, and potentially to jointly develop AI models and related model-specific deliverables. Concurrent with the compute agreement, the Company also entered into an option agreement for the right, but not the obligation, to acquire Cursor. The option agreement generally provides that the Company may exercise the call option at any time during the 30-day period following the earlier of (i) seven trading days following the completion of the Company’s IPO and (ii) September 30, 2026. Exercise of the call option is in the Company’s sole discretion and subject to further approval by the board of directors. Cursor is also subject to certain exclusivity obligations under the option agreement. The consideration for the acquisition of Cursor would consist of shares of Class A common stock based on an implied equity value of Cursor of $60.0 billion, and the price of Class A common stock that equals, if the acquisition closed prior to the completion of this offering, the most recent quarterly valuation, or, if the acquisition closed after the completion of the Company’s IPO, the volume-weighted average closing price thereof over the seven consecutive trading days immediately preceding the closing of the acquisition. If either (i) the Company decides to terminate the option agreement or (ii) Cursor is eligible to and decides to terminate due to the Company’s material breach of the option agreement, Cursor is entitled to a $1.5 billion termination fee under the option agreement and an $8.5 billion deferred services fee under the compute agreement. These fees are payable in cash (or Class A common stock, if the Company’s IPO has not been consummated at the time the fees become payable). The Company has conducted preliminary due diligence on Cursor’s business, technology and operations, and expect to continue such diligence in connection with any decision to exercise the call option. The Company cannot predict whether the Company will elect to exercise the call option or, if exercised, whether the acquisition will close on the anticipated terms or at all. Sale-Leaseback Transaction On April 24, 2026, CTC entered into a five-year equipment lease agreement with Valor, a related party, for certain AI infrastructure hardware (“Valor transaction III”) for total undiscounted lease payments of $6,587 million. Asset Acquisition On April 30, 2026, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with an unaffiliated third party to purchase certain mobile gas turbines and related packages for approximately $2,000 million (the “Turbine Acquisition”). The closing of the Turbine Acquisition is expected to occur in May 2026 and is subject to customary closing conditions. The seller has also agreed to enter into a post-closing services agreement to support the Company's turbine operations. The Turbine Acquisition will help provide power to the Company's data centers. Cloud Services Agreement On May 3, 2026, the Company entered into a cloud services agreement with Anthropic PBC, an AI research and development public benefit corporation, with respect to access to compute capacity. Pursuant to this agreement, the customer has agreed to pay a monthly fee through May 2029, with capacity ramping in May 2026 at a reduced fee. The agreement may be terminated by either party upon 90 days’ notice. The customer will retain ownership and intellectual property rights in its content, AI models, and related data. F-100

B.3 — Welches sind die zentralen Risiken, die für die Emittentin spezifisch sind? • Jedes Scheitern oder jede Verzögerung bei der Entwicklung von Starship im großen Maßstab oder bei der Erreichung der erforderlichen Startfrequenz, Wiederverwendbarkeit und der damit verbundenen Fähigkeiten könnten unsere Fähigkeit zur Umsetzung unserer Wachstumsstrategie verzögern oder einschränken, einschließlich des Einsatzes von Satelliten der nächsten Generation, globaler Satellite-to-Mobile-Konnektivität und orbitaler KI-Recheninfrastruktur, was sich wesentlich nachteilig auf unser Geschäft, unsere Finanz- und Ertragslage und unsere Zukunftsaussichten auswirken könnte. • Verzögerungen oder Schwierigkeiten bei der Erlangung, Aufrechterhaltung oder Erneuerung erforderlicher behördlicher Genehmigungen und Lizenzen für unsere weltraumbezogenen Aktivitäten, einschließlich der Start- und Wiedereintrittslizenzen der U.S. Federal Aviation Administration, könnten unseren Geschäftsbetrieb wesentlich verzögern oder beeinträchtigen, unserem Geschäft schaden oder unsere Fähigkeit zur Umsetzung unserer Geschäftsstrategie einschränken. • Verzögerungen oder Schwierigkeiten bei der Erlangung, Aufrechterhaltung oder Erneuerung erforderlicher Kommunikationslizenzen und Frequenzgenehmigungen für unsere Satelliten-Konnektivitätsdienste, einschließlich internationaler und von der Federal Communications Commission erteilter Satellitenfrequenzlizenzen, könnten unseren Geschäftsbetrieb wesentlich verzögern oder beeinträchtigen, unserem Geschäft schaden oder unsere Fähigkeit zur Umsetzung unserer Geschäftsstrategie einschränken. • Unsere KI-Produkte und X-Plattform unterliegen komplexen und sich weiterentwickelnden US-amerikanischen und ausländischen Gesetzen und Vorschriften, die Änderungen und unsicherer Auslegung unterliegen, und wir könnten gezwungen sein, Änderungen an unseren Produkten und Geschäftspraktiken vorzunehmen, und Geldstrafen, erhöhten Betriebskosten, einem Rückgang des Nutzerwachstums oder der Nutzeraktivität oder einem Verlust von Kunden oder anderen Beeinträchtigungen unserer KI-Produkte und der X-Plattform ausgesetzt sein. • Unsere Starlink- und sonstigen Satellitendienste unterliegen komplexen und sich weiterentwickelnden US-amerikanischen und ausländischen Gesetzen und Vorschriften, insbesondere in Bezug auf Datenschutz, Cybersicherheit und Telekommunikation. • Unsere Geschäftsstrategie hängt davon ab, dass wir unsere Produkte und Dienstleistungen sowie die zugehörigen Plattformen, Infrastrukturen und sonstigen strategischen Initiativen in einem beispiellosen Umfang erfolgreich konzipieren, entwickeln und einsetzen, was erhebliche Umsetzungs-, Kosten- und Timing-Risiken mit sich bringt. • Wir haben in der Vergangenheit Startverzögerungen und Startfehlschläge erlitten und werden diese voraussichtlich auch künftig erfahren, was sich wesentlich nachteilig auf unser Geschäft, unsere Finanz- und Ertragslage und unsere Zukunftsaussichten auswirken könnte. • Unsere Satelliten, Trägerraketen und sonstigen weltraumbezogenen Technologien werden — im Fall orbitaler KI- Recheninfrastruktur künftig — in der rauen und unberechenbaren Umgebung des Weltraums betrieben, wodurch sie einer Vielzahl spezifischer weltraumbezogener Risiken ausgesetzt sind, die zu Fehlfunktionen oder Ausfällen führen könnten, und jede solche Fehlfunktion oder jeder solche Ausfall könnte sich wesentlich nachteilig auf unser Geschäft, unsere Finanz- und Ertragslage und unsere Zukunftsaussichten auswirken. • Die zunehmende Verbreitung von Satellitenkonstellationen in der niedrigen Erdumlaufbahn (Low-Earth Orbit) sowie das Risiko von Kollisionen mit Weltraummüll oder anderen Raumfahrzeugen könnten unsere Startflexibilität und den Einsatz unserer Satelliten einschränken oder beeinträchtigen, was sich wesentlich nachteilig auf unser Geschäft, unsere Finanz- und Ertragslage und unsere Zukunftsaussichten auswirken könnte. • Unterbrechungen des Betriebs kritischer Satellitennetz-, Bodenstation-, Start-, Fertigungs- oder Raumfahrzeug- oder Rechenzentrumsinfrastruktur könnten zu erheblichen Ausfallzeiten, betrieblichen Verzögerungen oder Dienstunterbrechungen führen, die sich jeweils wesentlich nachteilig auf unser Geschäft, unsere Finanz- und Ertragslage und unsere Zukunftsaussichten auswirken könnten. • Die Herstellung, Erprobung und der Start von Raketen, Satelliten und Raumfahrzeugen, einschließlich unserer Bemühungen zur Wiederverwendung von Raketen und Raumfahrzeugen, bergen inhärente Risiken, die zu Personenschäden oder zum Tod von Personen, zu Sachschäden und zu Umweltschäden oder anderen nachteiligen Umweltauswirkungen infolge von Unfällen Z-4 t it t j (1).............................................

oder Geräteausfällen führen könnten. Derartige Ereignisse könnten erhebliche Schäden zur Folge haben, einschließlich Reputationsschäden und zivilrechtlicher Haftung, die sich wesentlich nachteilig auf unser Geschäft, unsere Finanz- und Ertragslage und unsere Zukunftsaussichten auswirken könnten. • Obwohl wir auf die vertikale Integration unserer Geschäftsbereiche ausgerichtet sind, sind wir bei der Herstellung und Lieferung bestimmter Schlüsselkomponenten, die für die Erbringung unserer Start-, Konnektivitäts- und KI-Dienste erforderlich sind, auf Dritte angewiesen, und etwaige Lieferengpässe, Lieferunterbrechungen oder Leistungsstörungen dieser Dritten könnten sich wesentlich nachteilig auf unser Geschäft, unsere Finanz- und Ertragslage und unsere Zukunftsaussichten auswirken.

C.3 — Welches sind die zentralen Risiken, die für die Wertpapiere spezifisch sind? • Zwischen uns einerseits und Heun Musk und den von ihm gehaltenen oder mit ihm verbundenen Unternehmen andererseits könnten in Zukunft Interessenkonflikte entstehen, unter anderem in Bezug auf Geschäftstransaktionen, potenzielle Wettbewerbsaktivitäten oder andere Geschäftsmöglichkeiten. • Bestimmte Mitglieder unseres Verwaltungsrats (Board of Directors) und Schlüsselmitarbeiter könnten Interessenkonflikten unterliegen, da sie zugleich Mitarbeiter oder Verwaltungsratsmitglieder von mit Heun Musk oder anderen Großaktionären verbundenen Unternehmen sind. Die Lösung dieser Interessenkonflikte muss nicht in unserem oder Ihrem besten Interesse liegen. • Nach der Durchführung des Angebots wird Herr Musk als unser Chief Executive Officer, Chief Technical Officer und Vorsitzender unseres Verwaltungsrats (Board of Directors) tätig sein und die Wahl unserer Verwaltungsratsmitglieder kontrollieren, und unsere Zwei-Klassen-Aktienstruktur konzentriert die Stimmrechtskontrolle bei Heun Musk und den sonstigen Inhabern unserer Stammaktien der Klasse B. Dies wird Ihre Möglichkeit, Einfluss auf Unternehmensangelegenheiten und die Wahl unserer Verwaltungsratsmitglieder zu nehmen, einschränken oder ausschließen. D. — Basisinformationen über das Angebot der Wertpapiere und die Zulassung zum Handel D.1 — Zu welchen Konditionen und nach welchem Zeitplan kann ich in dieses Wertpapier investieren? Umfang des Europäischen Retail- Das Europäische Retail-Angebot besteht aus öffentlichen Angeboten in Deutschland, Angebots Dänemark, Frankreich, den Niederlanden, Norwegen, Spanien und Schweden. Das in diesem Prospekt beschriebene Europäische Retail-Angebot bildet eine Tranche innerhalb des Globalen Angebots. Nach dem U.S. Securities Act ist es der Gesellschaft möglich, das US-Angebot aufzustocken und damit die Anzahl der im Rahmen des US-Angebots angebotenen Aktien zu erhöhen, indem die Gesellschaft vor Inkrafttreten der bei der SEC eingereichten Registrierungserklärung eine Anpassung dieser Erklärung einreicht. Darüber hinaus kann die Gesellschaft nach Rule 462(b) des U.S. Securities Act, die auf das US-Angebot anwendbar ist, zusätzliche Wertpapiere im Rahmen ihrer bei der SEC eingereichten Registrierungserklärung durch eine Änderung in Foul' einer automatisch wirksam werdenden nachträglichen Änderung in einem Umfang und zu einem Preis registrieren, die zusammen nicht mehr als 20 % des maximalen Gesamtangebotspreises ausmachen, berechnet als die Bruttoerlöse, die die Gesellschaft aus der Ausgabe der angebotenen Basisaktien durch den erwarteten Preis für das US-Angebot zusammen mit den Zusatzaktien erhalten würde. Demnach kann sich die Gesamtanzahl der im Rahmen des Globalen Angebots angebotenen Aktien erhöhen. Es wird jedoch keine Erhöhung der Anzahl der im Rahmen des Europäische Retail-Angebots angebotenen Aktien stattfinden, wenn die Anzahl der im Rahmen des Globalen Angebots angebotenen Aktien erhöht wird. Sofern und soweit die Europäischen Retail-Aktien nicht von berechtigten Kleinanlegern gezeichnet werden oder sofern die Gesellschaft und die Europäischen Konsortialbanken beschließen, die Anzahl der angebotenen Europäischen Retail- Aktien zu reduzieren oder einen endgültigen Betrag der angebotenen Europäischen Retail-Aktien unterhalb der maximalen Anzahl der im Rahmen dieses Prospekts angebotenen Aktien festzusetzen, können die nicht gezeichneten bzw. nicht mehr im Rahmen dieses Prospekts angebotenen Europäischen Retail-Aktien im Rahmen des Globalen Angebots angeboten und verkauft werden, wobei sie in Mitgliedstaaten des EWR ausschließlich unter Umständen angeboten werden, die in den Anwendungsbereich von Artikel 1 Absatz 4 der Prospektverordnung fallen. Maximaler Angebotspreis 162,00 US-Dollar je Klasse-A-Stammaktie. Für Zwecke des US-Angebots wurde ein erwarteter Preis von 135,00 US-Dollar festgesetzt. Für Zwecke des Europäischen Retail-Angebots wurde der maximale Angebotspreis auf 162,00 US-Dollar festgesetzt. Anleger, die Orders unterhalb von 135,00 US-Dollar abgeben, was dem erwarteten Preis für das US-Angebot entspricht, sollten nicht damit rechnen, eine Zuteilung im Rahmen des Europäischen Angebots zu erhalten. Abhängig von der Rechtsordnung und der Bank oder dem Finanzinteii_lediär können Kleinanleger unter Umständen eine Preisgrenze für ihre Orders angeben oder unlimitierte Orders erteilen. Orders ohne angegebene Preisgrenze oder unlimitierte Orders, die von Kleinanlegern erteilt werden, sind bis zur Höhe des maximalen öffentlichen Angebotspreises gültig. Der endgültige Angebotspreis wird ein einheitlicher Preis je Klasse-A-Stammaktie Z-6 – rr rr rr – – f .................................. rm ......... ll i rm

Der endgültige Angebotspreis versteht sich ohne Börsenumsatzsteuer oder sonstige Steuern sowie ohne etwaige Kosten (einschließlich Währungsumtauschgebühren), die von Finanzintermediären (mit Ausnahme der Europäischen Konsortialbanken) für die Platzierung von Kauforders erhoben werden. Die Gesellschaft wird den endgültigen öffentlichen Angebotspreis gemäß Artikel 17 Absatz 2 der Prospektverordnung am oder um den 11.

Was das Retail- Angebot in der Schweiz betrifft, wird der Angebotszeitraum voraussichtlich nach Einreichung dieses Prospekts bei einer Schweizer Prüfstelle für Prospekte am 5. Juni 2026 beginnen. Zuteilungsplan Das Globale Angebot der Klasse-A-Stammaktien durch die Konsortialbanken steht unter dem Vorbehalt des Eingangs und der Annahme von Orders und unter dem Vorbehalt des Rechts der Konsortialbanken, jede Order ganz oder teilweise nach eigenem Ermessen abzulehnen, sofern die folgenden Kriterien eingehalten werden. Programm der Aktienreservierung Auf Ersuchen der Gesellschaft haben die Konsortialbanken bis zu 5 % der im Rahmen (Directed Share Program) des Globalen Angebots angebotenen Klasse-A-Stammaktien für den Verkauf zum Angebotspreis im Rahmen eines Programms der Aktienreservierung (Directed Share Program) an bestimmte Mitarbeiter und Personen, die nach freiem Ermessen der Executive Officer der Gesellschaft ausgewählt wurden, reserviert, zu denen auch Parteien gehören können, zu denen die Gesellschaft eine Geschäftsbeziehung unterhält, sowie Freunde und Familienangehörige der Executive Officer. Sofern diese Personen diese Aktien erwerben, unterliegen diese Aktien keiner Lock-up-Beschränkung. Die Anzahl der zum Verkauf an die allgemeine Öffentlichkeit verfügbaren Klasse-A- Stammaktien verringert sich um die Anzahl der an diese Personen verkauften reservierten Aktien. Etwaige reservierte Aktien, die nicht von diesen Personen erworben werden, werden von den Konsortialbanken der allgemeinen Öffentlichkeit zu denselben Konditionen angeboten wie die übrigen angebotenen Klasse-A-Stammaktien im Rahmen des Globalen Angebots mit Ausnahme des Europäischen Retail-Angebots.

B.3 — Quels sont les principaux risques spécifiques à l'émetteur ? • Tout échec ou retard dans le développement à grande échelle de Starship ou dans l'atteinte de la cadence de lancement, de la réutilisabilité et des capacités requises par la suite retarderait ou limiterait notre capacité à mettre en oeuvre notre stratégie de croissance, y compris le déploiement de satellites de nouvelle génération, la connectivité mondiale par satellite vers les mobiles et le calcul IA en orbite, ce qui pourrait avoir un effet défavorable significatif sur nos activités, notre situation financière, nos résultats d'exploitation et nos perspectives futures. • Tout retard ou difficulté dans l'obtention, le maintien ou le renouvellement des autorisations réglementaires et des licences requises pour nos activités spatiales, y compris les licences de lancement et de rentrée atmosphérique délivrées par l'Administration Fédérale de l'Aviation des États-Unis (U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)), retarderait ou perturberait considérablement nos opérations, nuirait à nos activités ou limiterait notre capacité à mettre en oeuvre notre stratégie commerciale. • Tout retard ou difficulté dans l'obtention, le maintien ou le renouvellement des licences de communication et des autorisations d'utilisation du spectre requises pour nos services de connectivité par satellite, y compris les licences de spectre satellite internationales et celles de la Commission Fédérale des Communications (Federal Communications Commission (FCC)), pourrait retarder ou perturber de manière significative nos opérations, nuire à nos activités ou limiter notre capacité à mettre en oeuvre notre stratégie commerciale. • Nos produits d'IA et notre platefoline X sont soumis à des lois et réglementations américaines et étrangères complexes et en constante évolution qui sont susceptibles d'être modifiées et de faire l'objet d'interprétations incertaines et nous pourrions être contraints d'apporter des modifications à nos produits et à nos pratiques commerciales, et nous pourrions être exposés à des sanctions financières, à une augmentation des coûts d'exploitation, à une baisse de la croissance des utilisateurs ou de l'engagement des utilisateurs, à une perte de clients ou à d'autres préjudices pour nos produits d'IA et notre platefoline X. • Nos services Starlink et autres services satellitaires sont soumis à des lois et réglementations américaines et étrangères complexes et en constante évolution, notamment en matière de confidentialité des données, de cybersécurité et de télécommunications. • Notre stratégie commerciale repose sur la capacité à concevoir, développer et déployer avec succès nos produits et services, ainsi que les platefolines, infrastructures et autres initiatives stratégiques qui y sont associées, à une échelle sans précédent, ce qui présente des risques importants en matière de mise en oeuvre, de coûts et de délais. • Nous avons connu, et continuerons probablement de connaître, des retards et des échecs de lancement susceptibles d'avoir un impact significatif et défavorable sur notre activité, notre situation financière, nos résultats d'exploitation et nos perspectives futures. • Nos satellites, lanceurs et autres technologies spatiales fonctionnent, et dans le cas du calcul IA en orbite, fonctionneront, dans l'environnement hostile et imprévisible de l'espace, ce qui les expose à un vaste éventail de risques spatiaux uniques susceptibles d'entraîner des dysfonctionnements ou des défaillances ; or, tout dysfonctionnement ou défaillance de ce type pourrait avoir un impact significatif et défavorable sur nos activités, notre situation financière, nos résultats d'exploitation et nos perspectives futures. • La multiplication continue des constellations de satellites en orbite terrestre basse, ainsi que le risque de collisions avec des débris spatiaux ou d'autres engins spatiaux, pourraient limiter ou compromettre notre flexibilité en matière de lancement et de déploiement de nos satellites, ce qui pourrait avoir un impact significatif et défavorable sur nos activités, notre situation financière, nos résultats d'exploitation et nos perspectives futures. • Toute interruption dans l'exploitation des réseaux satellitaires essentiels, des stations au sol, des opérations de lancement, des processus de fabrication, des infrastructures liées aux engins spatiaux ou aux centres de données (datacenters) pourrait entraîner des temps d'arrêt importants, des retards opérationnels ou une interruption de service, chacun de ces événements étant susceptible d'avoir un impact significatif et défavorable sur nos activités, notre situation financière, nos résultats d'exploitation et nos perspectives futures. • La fabrication, les essais et le lancement de fusées, de satellites et d'engins spatiaux, y compris nos efforts visant à réutiliser les fusées et les engins spatiaux, comportent des risques inhérents susceptibles d'entraîner des blessures ou le décès de personnes, des dommages matériels et des dommages environnementaux ou d'avoir d'autres répercussions négatives sur l'environnement en raison d'accidents ou de défaillances d'équipements. Tout événement de ce type pourrait entraîner des pertes substantielles, notamment une atteinte à notre réputation et une responsabilité juridique, ce qui pourrait avoir un impact significatif et défavorable sur nos activités, notre situation financière, nos résultats d'exploitation et nos perspectives futures. • Bien que nous nous concentrions sur l'intégration verticale de nos activités, nous dépendons de tiers pour la fabrication et la fourniture de certains composants clés nécessaires à la fourniture de nos services de lancement, de connectivité et d'IA, et toute pénurie d'approvisionnement, perturbation ou défaillance de leur part pourrait avoir un impact significatif et défavorable sur nos activités, notre situation financière, nos résultats d'exploitation et nos perspectives futures.

Conformément aux termes et sous réserve des conditions du contrat de garantie, les garants devraient s'engager, chacun pour sa part, à acheter, et la Société devrait accepter de leur céder, chacun pour sa part, toutes les actions ordinaires de catégorie A effectivement placées dans le cadre de l'offre mondiale. Conflits d'intérêts importants Il n'existe aucun conflit d'intérêts important concernant l'offre mondiale, y compris concernant l'offre européenne aux investisseurs de détail.

Det finns inga planer på att ansöka om upptagande till handel av Bolagets stamaktier av Serie A på någon annan handelsplats. C.3 — Vilka nyckelrisker är specifika för värdepapperen? • Intressekonflikter skulle i framtiden kunna uppstå mellan oss å ena sidan och Elon Musk och enheter som ägs av eller k närstående till honom å andra sidan, bland annat avseende affärstransaktioner, potentiella konkurrerande aktiviteter eller andra affärsmöjligheter. • Vissa av våra styrelseledamöter och nyckelanställda kan ha intressekonflikter eftersom de även k anställda av eller styrelseledamöter i närståendeföretag till Mr. Musk eller andra större aktieägare. Sådana intressekonflikter kan komma att lösas på ett sätt som inte ligger i vårt eller era bästa intressen. • Nk erbjudandet har genomförts kommer Mr. Musk att fungera som vår Chief Executive Officer, Chief Technical Officer och styrelseordförande samt kontrollera valet av våra styrelseledamöter. Vår struktur med två aktieslag koncentrerar vidare röstkontrollen till Mr. Musk och andra innehavare av våra stamaktier av Serie B. Detta kommer att begränsa eller utesluta er möjlighet att påverka frågor som rör bolaget och valet av styrelseledamöter. D. — Nyckelinformation om erbjudandet av värdepapper till allmänheten och upptagandet till handel D.1 — På vilka villkor och enligt vilken tidplan kan jag investera i detta värdepapper? Omfattningen av det Det europeiska retail-erbjudandet består av offentliga erbjudanden av de europeiska retail-aktierna europeiska retail- i Tyskland, Danmark, Frankrike, Nederländerna, Norge, Spanien och Sverige. erbjudandet Det europeiska retail-erbjudande som avses i detta prospekt utgör en tranch inom ramen för det globala erbjudandet. Enligt amerikanska värdepapperslagstiftning har Bolaget möjlighet att utöka det amerikanska erbjudandet, och därigenom öka antalet aktier som erbjuds i det amerikanska erbjudandet, genom att ge in ett tillägg (amendment) till registreringshandlingen till SEC innan registreringshandlingen träder i kraft. Därutöver får Bolaget, enligt Rule 462(b) under U.S. Securities Act, vilken k tillämplig på det amerikanska erbjudandet, registrera ytterligare värdepapper enligt dess registreringshandling enligt Form S-1 som lämnats in till SEC genom ett tillägg i forn' av en s.k. "efterföljande ändring med automatisk effekt" (automatically effective post-effective amendment), till ett antal och pris som tillsammans inte överstiger 20 % av det högsta sammanlagda erbjudandepriset, beräknat som bruttolikviden som Bolaget förväntas erhålla vid utgivandet av de erbjudna grundaktierna till det förväntade priset för det amerikanska erbjudandet, tillsammans med de ytterligare aktierna. Följaktligen kan antalet aktier som erbjuds inom ramen för det globala erbjudandet komma att öka. Antalet aktier som erbjuds i det europeiska retail-erbjudandet kommer dock inte att öka om antalet aktier som erbjuds i det globala erbjudandet ökas. Om och i den utsträckning de europeiska retail-aktierna inte tecknas av berättigade retail- investerare, eller om Bolaget och de europeiska underwriter-bankerna beslutar att minska antalet erbjudna europeiska retail-aktier eller fastställa ett slutligt antal europeiska retail-aktier som understiger det högsta antalet aktier som erbjuds enligt detta prospekt, får de europeiska retail- aktier som inte har tecknats respektive inte längre erbjuds enligt prospektet, istället erbjudas och Z -31 – är ” ” är är – s är är – – ” ” – är är är – – t .......................... är m ” ” st-eff


 
säljas inom ramen för det globala erbjudandet, med förbehåll för att de endast kommer att erbjudas inom EES under sådana omständigheter som omfattas av tillämpningsområdet för artikel 1.4 i Prospektförordningen. Högsta erbjudandepris 162,00 USD per stamaktie av Serie A. För det amerikanska erbjudandet har det förväntade priset fastställts till 135,00 USD. För det europeiska retail-erbjudandet har det högsta erbjudandepriset fastställts till 162,00 USD. Investerare som lägger order understigande 135,00 USD, vilket utgör det förväntade priset för det amerikanska erbjudandet, bör inte räkna med tilldelning inom ramen för det europeiska retail-erbjudandet. Beroende på jurisdiktion och bank eller finansiell mellanhand kan retail-investerare ha, eller sakna, möjlighet att ange ett högsta orderpris eller lägga obegränsade order. Order från retail-investerare utan angivet högstapris eller obegränsade order kommer att vara giltiga upp till det högsta erbjudandepriset. Det slutliga erbjudandepriset kommer att vara ett enda pris per stamaktie av Serie A som gäller för samtliga investerare i hela det globala erbjudandet, inklusive detta europeiska retail-erbjudande. Det slutliga erbjudandepriset kommer att vara exklusive skatt på transaktioner över börs eller andra skatter, samt eventuella kostnader (inklusive växelkursavgifter), om några, som tas ut av finansiella mellanhänder (andra än de europeiska underwriter-bankerna) för placering av köporder. Bolaget kommer offentliggöra det slutliga erbjudandepriset i enlighet med artikel 17.2 i Prospektförordningen omkring den 11 juni 2026, genom ett meddelande som offentliggörs i elektronisk form på Bolagets webbplats, https://www.spacexipo.com.

Vad gäller retail-erbjudandet i Schweiz förväntas erbjudandeperioden inledas efter detta prospekt har givits in till ett schweiziskt prospektorgan den 5 juni 2026. Tilldelningprinciper Det globala erbjudandet av stamaktier av Serie A från underwriter-bankerna är villkorat av mottagande och godkännande samt underwriter-bankernas rätt att helt eller delvis avvisa en order efter eget gottfinnande, förutsatt att följ ande kriterier iakttas. Riktat aktieprogram På Bolagets begäran har underwriter-bankerna reserverat upp till 5 % av de stamaktier av Serie A som erbjuds i det globala erbjudandet för försäljning till det initiala erbjudandepriset genom ett riktat aktieprogram till vissa anställda och personer utvalda av Bolagets ledande befattningshavare enligt eget gottfinnande, vilket kan inkludera parter med vilka Bolaget har en affärsrelation samt vänner och familjemedlemmar till Bolagets ledande befattningshavare. Om dessa personer förvärvar sådana aktier kommer aktierna inte att omfattas av någon inlåsningsperiod. Antalet stamaktier av Serie A som erbjuds allmänheten kommer att minskas med det antal reserverade aktier som säljs till dessa personer. Eventuella reserverade stamaktier av Serie A som inte förvärvas av dessa personer kommer att erbjudas allmänheten av underwriter-bankerna på samma villkor som övriga aktier av Serie A som erbjuds i det globala erbjudandet, med undantag för det europeiska retail-erbjudandet. Högsta tilldelning till Med avseende på det globala erbjudandet har underwriter-bankerna informerat Bolaget om att de diskretionära konton inte avser att låta försäljning till diskretionärt förvaltade konton (dvs. kundkonton för vilka underwriter-bankerna (i egenskap av värdepappersmäklare och innehavare av kundmedel) har befogenhet att förvärva aktier för kundens räkning (utan att inhämta uttryckligt godkännande från kunden)) överstiga 5 % av det totala antalet stamaktier av Serie A som erbjuds av dem. Option att förvärva Bolaget kommer enligt placeringsavtalet att ge underwriter-bankerna en option, vilken får utnyttjas ytterligare aktier under en period om 30 dagar från dagen för placeringsavtalet, att förvärva upp till 83 333 333 ytterligare stamaktier av Serie A till det slutliga erbjudandepriset, efter avdrag för underwriting- rabatter och provisioner, i syfte att täcka eventuell övertilldelning som uppkommit genom blankningsförsäljningar.

Motiv till det globala Bolaget avser att genomföra det globala erbjudandet för att erhålla nettolikviden från erbjudandet försäljningen av stamaktier av Serie A. Nettolikvid Bolaget förväntar sig att erhålla en nettolikvid om cirka 74,4 miljarder USD från det globala erbjudandet om alla grundaktier säljs (varav cirka 7,4 miljarder USD hänförliga till det europeiska retail-erbjudandet om det högsta antalet om 55 555 555 aktier säljs inom ramen för sådant erbjudande) eller cirka 85,7 miljarder USD om underwriter-bankerna utnyttjar sin option att köpa ytterligare stamaktier av Serie A fullt ut, baserat på det förväntade initiala erbjudandepriset om 135,00 USD per aktie (vilket är det förväntade pris som fastställts för det amerikanska erbjudandet), efter avdrag för underwriting-rabatter och provisioner samt beräknade kostnader för erbjudandet som ska betalas av Bolaget. Användning av Bolaget avser att använda nettolikviden från det globala erbjudandet för att finansiera sin emissionslikviden tillväxtstrategi, inklusive expansionen av sin AI-infrastruktur för beräkningskraft, förbättringar av sin uppskjutningsinfrastruktur och sina bärraketer, utökning av omfattningen och kapaciteten hos sina satellitkonstellationer, samt eventuella återstående belopp för allmänna verksamhetsändamål.

Exhibit B Video of Jamie Dimon’s Interview of Elon Musk Video link: https://x.com/jpmorgan/status/2062665224285470758?s=43&t=5v9hD0Vy2OcI3hjVdXvIEg Transcript: *Transcript slightly edited for clarity. MARY ERDOES: Elon, welcome to JP Morgan’s headquarters. You’re on the fifty-first floor, which is about the equivalent of…well, nowhere near where you usually go in space, but as high as we can get in New York City. Before we get started with you and Jamie, we have a very special guest who wanted to welcome you this afternoon. Your mother, Maye Musk, is here to welcome you. Maye, please stand up. MAYE MUSK: I don’t think you can see me or everybody here. MARY ERDOES: They can see you. Yes. He can. MAYE MUSK: This is your party. ELON MUSK: I actually can’t see my mom, but I can hear her. There you are. MAYE MUSK: OK. What I’d like to say is when you were three years old and I told people I had a genius son, they rolled their eyes. ELON MUSK: Understandable, frankly. MAYE MUSK: But I knew. And then when you said you wanted to start with rockets, I rolled my eyes. And then you did it. This is a great party, and we’re celebrating. I love you so much. MARY ERDOES: One proud mom.


 
JAMIE DIMON: Elon, welcome. It’s a real privilege to have you here on this momentous occasion. This is new for us, but it’s an important thing: the trajectory of American innovation. We’re live today with 3,500 of our top individual investors around the country, across 100 branches. There are 350 people here in the room and 3,500 around the country. This is very unique and reflects something Elon and I have discussed—democratizing finance and treating individual investors the same way institutions and hedge funds are treated. So, my view is that it’s a wonderful thing to do. Elon, very brave, by the way, because I would never let my mother speak publicly when I was in the room. God knows what she would have said. ELON MUSK: I had no idea she was there actually. JAMIE DIMON: Elon is the Edison of our time. I remember visiting Tesla 15 years ago—an entirely new way of building cars through vertical integration. Then there’s SpaceX. I visited the SpaceX factory in California, which is exceptional. You’ve built more than 650 rockets, and today you mentioned having nearly 10,000 Starlink satellites in orbit. Starlink 3 is coming, which is a new generation that may replace some undersea cables. It’s been an extraordinary 24 years watching Elon grow over time and now making a massive leap into the future. So welcome here Elon. I have 10 questions for you so I want to make sure I get to each one. Some of them came from folks here—they’re all kind of important. So let’s begin. Question one: Why take SpaceX public now? You’ve had choices, you didn’t have to—why now? ELON MUSK: I’ve been asked for many years about taking SpaceX public—probably almost 10 years that people have been suggesting to me that I should take SpaceX public. We’ve been cash flow positive since around 2014 or 2015 and have been self-funding. Our private equity rounds were not fundraising rounds; they were liquidity rounds for investors and employees because we give everyone at the company stock and SpaceX has actually bought back stock in most of our funding events. What’s different now is that we’re embarking on a significant capital growth phase. We plan to put over 100,000 satellites into orbit just for communications—and these will be Version 3 and beyond versus version 2 and 1 that are currently in orbit. Version 3 is 10 to 20 times more capable than Version 2. Our chip design team taped out three chips that are far beyond the state of the art. This enables roughly 100 times more bandwidth than the current Starlink system, with about half the latency because the altitude will be about half the altitude. This will likely be the highest-bandwidth, lowest-latency means of communicating. And the future with AI and robots will require a lot more bandwidth than we currently use because you can imagine, what’s the bandwidth of a


 
human, it’s peak bandwidth is a few hundred bits per second, while a computer can reach a trillion bits per second. So the appetite for bandwidth of AI and robots has the potential to be enormous. We’re also developing AI data centers in space, which is another massive capital endeavor. I think it will be the primary means by which AI can be expanded – it’s increasingly difficult to build power plants on the ground. There are very few people who want a power plant in their backyard. If you want to, say, double U.S. electricity usage, which is on average roughly 500 gigawatts, we would need twice as many power plants, which I don't think people are, most communities are not super excited about that. But actually, if we go to space, we can go far beyond the electricity generation of both. In fact, this is going to sound kind of crazy, but you could actually increase harnessed energy by a factor of a million and still be using much less than a millionth of the sun's energy. So current human civilization uses much less than 1 trillionth of the sun's energy output. Which is kind of humbling to think about. We're really a tiny when you see the true size of Earth relative to the sun, we're a tiny dust mote in a vast darkness, and the sun is enormous. The sun is 99.8% of all mass in the solar system, and most of the remaining 0.2% is Jupiter. Sometimes people ask me – I’m sort of maybe going a little wide ranging in the answer, because you just asked me why you're going public now, you know, and I’m talking about the sun's power output and such. Bit of a long winded answer. Yeah, you know, if I was an AI you might tell me to, you know, OK, stop now. But also it is important, like some of these things are kind of important because people sometimes wonder what's the future of energy generation. I can say that it is absolutely solar power, or maybe a better word for solar power is star power. It's the power of a star. The crazy thing is that if you burnt all mass in the solar system that was not the sun, the amount of energy produced by the sun would still round up to 100% because the sun is 99.8% of the mass of the solar system. Even if you teleported two more Jupiters from another solar system and burnt them too, the sun would round up to 100%. So it's very much the sun. And you could scale to a million times Earth's economy in space, in terms of harnessed power, which is a good proxy for economic output, and still be much less than a millionth of the sun's energy, which is humbling really to think about how tiny we are. And this is just one star among many. So I guess the TLDR, would be: we're embarking on a massive new growth phase and we need capital for that. Another thing is I also feel pretty good about the target revenue projections. Before, the revenue was a little bit unstable, but now I feel like the revenue is much more predictable. JAMIE DIMON: I always learn listening to you, I guarantee you. People hear about multiplanetary species, travel to space, one of the most exciting ideas in human history. Can you explain the bridge you talk about—from Earth to the Moon to Mars? ELON MUSK: You don’t need the Moon to get to Mars, but I think we can build a self-growing city on the Moon faster than we could do so on Mars. There's also the potential, if you say you want to scale far beyond what you can do from Earth, because the moon has no atmosphere and about one sixth of Earth's gravity, you can use an electromagnetic accelerator, a rail gun or mass driver. Basically, you don't need to use rockets to launch AI data centers into deep space from the moon. You can literally just shoot them like a rail gun type of thing. And it’s possible to manufacture solar powered radiators on the moon from moon materials. That would allow scaling potentially to beyond 1,000 terawatts a year, which is truly a staggering number. From Earth, we might reach about one terawatt per year of AI space compute. From the Moon, it could be 1,000 terawatts or more. We could also build a Moon base and I think it would be pretty cool if you could vacation on the moon. That would be the most epic vacation, you know. Not everybody want’s to go to the moon, but I think a lot of people do,


 
provided you could do so safely. I think that could be possible in the future. Mars is another step beyond. It’s a whole planet with gravity much closer to that of Earth and it has an atmosphere, and if you warm it up, you could one day make Mars like Earth meaning with liquid oceans and life and where you could walk outside without a spacesuit. I call Mars a fixer-upper of a planet, but it’s got a lot of potential. JAMIE DIMON: I never thought you'd be in the hospitality business. ELON MUSK: We should have moon hotels, don't you think? JAMIE DIMON: Yeah, Musk hotels? ELON MUSK: Well, it could be others actually. We're kind of like the Union Pacific, you know. When they built the Union Pacific back in the day, people thought they were crazy. Why are you trying to all this cargo and people to California? No one's there. But now California is the biggest state in the country. JAMIE DIMON: Not for long, but yeah. ELON MUSK: Admittedly it's self-defeating. JAMIE DIMON: So with Starship, you’ve built an unbelievable ship. It’s already had 12 flights. But technically it’s hard to do. What were some of the breakthroughs that you’ve had that people should know about? ELON MUSK: Well, our webcasts are very good, so I recommend if anyone wants to learn about Starship, the SpaceX IPO website or any of the Starship live casts are a great way to learn about it. But really, the fundamental breakthrough of Starship is that it’s designed to be the first fully reusable orbital rocket. This might sound like an obvious thing – because in every other mode of transport, whether it’s aircraft, cars, bicycles, horses, ships, you name it – we take for granted these are all reusable. An aircraft journey would be very expensive if you had to throw the plane away every time. And that’s how rockets have been in the past. But it's it's very difficult from a technology standpoint to achieve full reusability for a rocket. We got part of the way there with Falcon 9, and we expect to get all the way there with Starship. Once you achieve full reusability, then the cost of access to orbit is essentially just the cost of propellant, because now you can reuse all aspects of the vehicle. The propellant we used for Starship is liquid oxygen and liquid methane, which is the cheapest propellant you could get. We can just literally get oxygen from the air and methane from natural gas. So the cost of propellant for Starship is less than the cost of jet aviation fuel. Which means that you should be able to actually send cargo to space for less than the cost of cargo on an airplane going on a transoceanic trip.


 
JAMIE DIMON: Starlink, another thing that has been amazing, global communications we already mentioned Ukraine. But you had mentioned to me that V3 would maybe be able to replace some of these cyber cables, which, by the way, is a huge security risk for all of us because several have already been cut in the Baltic Sea. So what’s next for Starlink both V3 and maybe V4? ELON MUSK: Version 3 satellites are massive—about 10 to 20 times more capable than Version 2. It’s a very big satellite, and can only be launched on Starship. It’s too big to be launched on any other rocket on Earth. Starship has a 30 foot diameter cargo bay and the V3 satellites are about seven meters, so about 22 or 23 feet wide. So, very big. That’s like the size of a small bus. There are a bunch of technical details – we have much bigger phase array antennas, we’ve got more Ku ground links, our satellites communicate with each other with lasers that we developed and manufacture; so it’s got a lot more lasers and more advanced lasers. It’s also got W-band and E-band. These are technical details but it’s like a crazy orbiting radio station. JAMIE DIMON: And doesn’t a starship do like 12 of them or 15 at once? ELON MUSK: Well it should be able to do 50, because Starship V3 is aiming to do 100 tons to orbit with full reusability. And then Starship V4 we’re aiming for over 200 tons per mission and then being able to launch every hour. JAMIE DIMON: So, next one: data centers in space. You've been talking about that. Other people have mentioned it, but obviously it has different technical capabilities. You know, it's colder up there. It's less vibration, but you also have to get the data back to the Earth by some method. I think you mentioned to me lasers in good weather and bad. How hard is it to build AI data centers in space? ELON MUSK: We think it’s easier than building communication satellites. The Starlink V3 communication satellites is an incredibly complex machine. The AI data center would be much simpler by comparison, because it's really just solar power plus radiator, and some basic equipment for operating the satellite and then the laser links, which would connect to Starlink communications constellation and then to the ground. The connection would happen no matter what the weather is, because once you connect via lasers to the Starlink communication constellation, Starlink communicates to the ground with frequencies that are cloud penetrating, in fact, even roof penetrating to some degree. So you would always be able to close link with the data centers. JAMIE DIMON: Talking about America, one of the big things here, we've been talking about the reindustrialization of America for a long time, bringing back advanced manufacturing. Now you're talking about building Terra Fab, building chip fabs. What compelled you do that now with all the other things you’re working on?


 
ELON MUSK: We try to think about, what's the limiting factor? What we see as a limiting factor is being able to make chips, both logic, memory, and packaging. It’s worth noting that there's not a single high volume computer memory fab in America right now. Zero. There's one being built in Idaho by Micron, but that will not reach volume production until I believe 2028. And there's some built in New York, but they are, I think, 29 and 30. And this is a tiny fraction of the memory that's needed. And in fact, even if, if you take the best case assumptions of the memory makers and the logic makers, it is not enough to meet the demand that is anticipated, which is why you're seeing, you know, stocks of like Micron go to, I think 1.2 trillion or some quite high number. So there's just clearly a need for AI logic memory and packaging, AI computers essentially, that is far beyond what even the best case assumptions of the existing fabricators can do. And that's why we need to do Terra Fab. It seems essential. Otherwise we will not, there will not be enough chips. JAMIE DIMON: I'm going to do one more on some of the stuff you're building and then a little bit more on other issues. AI strategy. You've brought Grok inside SpaceX. How does that fit into this platform you're building? ELON MUSK: We intend with our SpaceX AI satellites to allow people to put whatever GPU or TPU they want. So if Nvidia GPUs can be put on it, Google TPUs can be put on it, Amazon Traniums or any other chips that you want to put on, can be put on. We'll also offer our chips in the future. We also want to offer our AI software as well in the future. But it will be such that you can run anyone's AI hardware or software on that has the SpaceX AI satellites. JAMIE DIMON: The next three are completely different. I'm going to mention each one. I'll ask you each one, but this one's about your view of patriotism, service to this country. One’s about culture and bench. How do you actually build these wonderful companies? And then leadership, and I have a very specific question about that. But first let's start with patriotism. You've served this country. I know you're a patriot. We've spoken about it. How do you view your role as an American patriot helping the United States? ELON MUSK: I’m incredibly pro-American, frankly always have been. SpaceX does significant work for the Department of War. We have a division called Starshield which provides military communications. We are helping the Department of War and part of the government. We are a vital component of that I’m just super pro-America and always have been. JAMIE DIMON: Culture, bench. Bret and Gwynn have been with you for 15 or 20 years. I know you’ve built a huge bench in SpaceX. How do you keep it going? What’s important to you? How do you make sure you keep the best talent? ELON MUSK: Gwynn was, I think, around the 7th person to join the company and that was 2002. So it's been 24 years. And generally, the senior executives at the company have a very long tenure. I think Bret Johnsen's been CFO for 15 years. Because people really believe in the mission, I think they want to stay and they want to keep building. We


 
want to make humanity a space faring civilization. We want to take humanity to Mars and the moon and, and ultimately beyond. We want to go to places that have never been explored before. Make Star Trek real, you know. JAMIE DIMON: That was one of my favorite shows. Last one: you've built multiple companies. How have you changed from maybe 20 years ago? How have you changed both as a leader and as a person? ELON MUSK: I think I'm probably more chill than I used to be. I'm way more laid back than I used to be. I'm not that laid back, but more than I used to be for sure. One of the things I found over time, is that in terms of recruiting people to the company or having people work with the company, their individual abilities and, their intellectual capabilities matter a lot. But also, it also matters if they have a good heart. It's not just about whether somebody has a certain IQ or whatever, but that they are a good person. That matters a lot. I’ve learned a lot, although I still have a lot to learn and make a lot of mistakes. But I suppose I think maybe the future AI will say: not bad for a human. JAMIE DIMON: Before we let him go, I just want to thank Elon. I can't wait to watch the next 10 or 15 years, what you accomplish and what you dream of, getting to Mars and building new businesses and being creative. So Elon, I want to thank you on behalf of everybody for coming here, sharing your ideas. ELON MUSK: Thank you. Thanks for having me.
