SpaceX raised $750M at a valuation of $137B in January 2023.
A private investment at this scale should have a lot more transparency and due diligence than disclosures from a SEC disclosures. If I were investing $750M, I'd have engineers under NDA review SpaceX technologies, financial auditors, legal auditors, etc.
Secondary sales place it a little bit higher (but those typically have all the issues you describe).
Fair enough, didn’t know about that recent round. Still, I would assume that number is higher than it would be if the business were publicly listed, but the $140B should be close enough.
