# Elon Musk said SpaceX will hit $1trn in revenue by 2030. Its first earnings sent the stock down 11%

**[The Next Web](https://daily.dev/sources/tnw)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

SpaceX's first public earnings revealed a striking shift: the company made more revenue from AI compute ($2.6bn, up 247%) than from its space business ($962m), with total revenue nearly doubling to $7.8bn. Starlink remains the only profitable segment, generating $4.3bn in revenue and $1.7bn in operating income with 12 million subscribers. Despite the growth, shares fell 11% after capital spending surged sixfold to $18.4bn, mostly on AI infrastructure. Elon Musk raised the company's $1 trillion annual revenue target to 2030, while executives offered more cautious framing. A $101bn insider lockup expiration adds further pressure to the already battered stock.
