Elon Musk Backs SpaceX-Tesla Merger After Rocket Firm Posts Profit
Yahoo Finance ·
Elon Musk stated on Tuesday that he supports a potential merger between SpaceX and Tesla. The remarks came as the rocket company reported its first quarterly net income since going public, reaching $4.4 billion for the July-September period on a 161 percent jump in revenue to $14.6 billion. SpaceX shares climbed nearly five percent in after-hours trading following the announcement. Musk noted that independent director committees at both entities are reviewing the proposal at shareholder request, though he is recused due to a conflict of interest. The turnaround was driven primarily by the AI division, which generated $7.6 billion in revenue. Computing capacity expanded to 1.7 gigawatts, with capital expenditure totaling $19.6 billion for the quarter. Musk also discussed plans to scale capacity further, despite ongoing supply and infrastructure constraints.

SpaceX's third-quarter revenue surged 161% year-over-year to $14.6 billion, with AI sector revenue hitting $7.6 billion, driving the earnings rebound. However, continuous large-scale AI facility investments could act as a financial burden.
If the merger succeeds, synergies in AI software and chip design are expected, but high hurdles such as shareholder approval remain. Future power and cooling equipment supply conditions and merger approval status are key points to watch.
