Shares of Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (Nasdaq: SPCX) are under renewed scrutiny this weekend as another significant lock-up expiration looms. Up to 328.4 million shares — representing 7% of the original 180-day lock-up pool — became eligible for trading on Monday, October 26, 2026, following a lock-up agreement that ended on Saturday, October 24.
This comes just days after the largest single unlock since SpaceX’s historic June 12, 2026, Nasdaq debut, when 1.3 billion shares became eligible on October 22 and the stock plunged nearly 9% in a single session. SpaceX posted blockbuster Q3 2026 results on October 20, reporting revenue of $14.6 billion — a staggering 161% year-over-year increase — and net income of $4.4 billion.
The stock, trading at approximately $147–$148 per share, remains above its $135 IPO price but well below its post-listing peak of $225.64. Investors and employees holding pre-IPO shares — excluding Elon Musk, whose holdings remain locked until June 2027 — are now eligible to sell. The main 180-day lock-up for remaining shares expires on December 8, 2026, which analysts expect to be another critical inflection point for SPCX.
