Elon Musk says SpaceX's "$1 trillion in revenue" forecasts "have moved up" a year, to 2030
“internal projections for reaching $1 trillion in revenue, not ARR, but revenue, have moved up from 2031 to 2030.”
Reported August 6, 2026 by pjmedia.com. Checked word for word against that report.
During SpaceX’s first quarterly earnings call on Tuesday, Elon Musk told investors that Starlink should pass $100 billion in annualized revenue by December. He also said the company now expected to reach $1 trillion in actually earned yearly sales by 2030, one year earlier than previously forecast, and did not rule out 2029. The update accompanied figures showing $7.8 billion in quarterly revenue, up 92%, and a net loss of $541 million. Musk linked the outlook to upcoming Starship test flights launching upgraded Starlink satellites, quicker profitability on xAI computing investments, and plans for space-based data centers.
