Millennial Investing - The Investor’s Podcast Network - TIVP083 (Video): SpaceX (SPCX): Is It Really Worth $2 Trillion Dollars? w/ Kyle Grieve and Shawn O'Malley

发布时间:   原节目
以下是这段内容的中文翻译: 2026年6月12日,SpaceX以每股135美元的价格上市,其估值立即媲美许多国家的整个股票市场。该公司的招股说明书提出了28.5万亿美元的总目标市场规模(TAM),但主持人经仔细审查后发现这一数字被严重夸大,这表明该公司股价表现的很大一部分是由“精心编织的叙事”而非内在价值所驱动。 埃隆·马斯克此前在特斯拉的成功激发了投资者浓厚的兴趣,尽管他两极分化的个性也引发了强烈争议。主持人尽管欣赏SpaceX的宏大愿景,但对其当前估值表示怀疑,将其比作历史上的泡沫以及“市场是一台称重机”的投资哲学。他们强调,即使在面对一家看起来“估值高得离谱”的公司时,也需要保持分析的客观公正。 SpaceX的业务分为三个部门: 1. **航天部门:** 负责火箭设计、制造、发射和翻新,专注于可重复使用火箭(如猎鹰9号、猎鹰重型和星舰)。该部门已成功发射650多次,成功率达99%,与NASA等竞争对手相比,显著降低了发射成本。他们的关键绩效指标是“入轨质量”,其中星舰的目标是,与历史平均水平相比,每公斤成本惊人地降低99%。收入来源于发射服务以及发射和开发合同。 2. **人工智能部门 (XAI/X):** 由XAI和X(前身为Twitter)合并而成。主持人对该部门持批评态度,质疑其与Anthropic和OpenAI等行业领导者相比的竞争优势。尽管埃隆设想了协同效应(例如,太空中的AI数据中心),但该部门目前是一个“烧钱机器”,在2026年第一季度创造了32亿美元的收入,却产生了63亿美元的运营亏损和127亿美元的资本支出。“TerraFab”计划旨在实现大规模AI计算能力,这是一个雄心勃勃但具有投机性的项目。 3. **互联互通部门 (Starlink):** 被认为是SpaceX的“核心资产”,因为它拥有稳健的40%营业利润率和63%的调整后EBITDA利润率。星链运营着一个由9600颗卫星组成的星座,为164个国家的1030万用户提供服务。它包括消费者宽带、企业级服务、政府服务(StarShield)和移动服务。尽管由于低价套餐导致每用户平均收入(ARPU)下降,但星链在起步阶段仍战略性地旨在扩大市场份额。V3卫星有望实现V2卫星20倍的吞吐量容量,进一步提高效率。 主持人指出,SpaceX在航天部门拥有强大的低成本供应商优势,这使得新进入者极难与其竞争。然而,他们对AI部门薄弱的护城河表示担忧,将SpaceX的多部门结构比作阿里巴巴,即一个强大的部门补贴较弱的部门。 在财务方面,SpaceX正处于大力再投资模式,这体现在其负现金流上。最近的IPO募资857亿美元,使其现金头寸显著改善至1015亿美元,而债务为300亿美元,从而实现了负净债务。这笔巨额资本注入计划用于AI基础设施、发射能力增强和卫星扩张。高管薪酬,特别是埃隆·马斯克的薪酬,与非凡的长期目标挂钩,包括达到7.5万亿美元的市值以及在火星上建立拥有百万居民的永久人类殖民地。 主要风险包括极度高估(营收的110倍,调整后EBITDA的500倍)、“反身性”(埃隆的叙事不成比例地影响股价)、关键人物风险(埃隆·马斯克的双重CEO角色和引发争议的行为),以及其多元化业务面临的监管挑战。招股说明书中提出的28.5万亿美元的总目标市场规模(TAM)受到了严格审查;主持人通过大幅削减互联互通和AI部门的虚高数字,估计更实际的TAM接近6000亿美元。 主持人的估值模型显示,即使假设到2031年营收复合年增长率为37%、EBITDA利润率为26%,并且采用保守的30倍企业价值/EBITDA倍数,也预计会产生负的复合年回报率。这表明该股票被严重高估,需要极高的增长率才能证明其当前估值的合理性。尽管认可埃隆·马斯克的过往成就,主持人总结道,以目前的价格来看,SpaceX“对我们来说价格太高”,他们宁愿作壁上观,等待更具吸引力的入场点。

On June 12, 2026, SpaceX went public at $135 a share, immediately achieving a valuation comparable to many countries' entire stock markets. The company's prospectus pitched a Total Addressable Market (TAM) of $28.5 trillion, a figure that the hosts found to be highly inflated upon scrutiny, signaling that much of the stock's price action is driven by a "very well-crafted narrative" rather than intrinsic value. Elon Musk's previous successes with Tesla have fueled significant investor interest, though his polarizing personality also contributes to strong opinions. Despite appreciating the ambitious vision of SpaceX, the hosts express skepticism about the current valuation, comparing it to historical bubbles and the "market is a weighing machine" philosophy. They highlight the intellectual honesty required to analyze such a company, even when it appears "obscenely overvalued." SpaceX's business is divided into three segments: 1. **Space Segment:** Responsible for rocket design, manufacturing, launch, and refurbishment, focusing on reusable rockets (Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy, Starship). This segment has achieved over 650 successful launches with a 99% success rate, significantly reducing launch costs compared to competitors like NASA. Their KPI is "mass to orbit," with Starship aiming for an astounding 99% cost reduction per kilogram compared to historical averages. Revenue comes from launch services and launch and development contracts. 2. **AI Segment (XAI/X):** Formed by the merger of XAI and X (formerly Twitter). The hosts are critical of this segment, questioning its competitive advantage compared to leaders like Anthropic and OpenAI. While Elon envisions synergies (e.g., in-space AI data centers), the segment is currently a "capital incinerator," generating $3.2 billion in revenue in Q1 2026 but incurring $6.3 billion in operating losses and $12.7 billion in CapEx. The "TerraFab" initiative aims for massive AI computing capacity, an ambitious but speculative project. 3. **Connectivity Segment (Starlink):** Considered SpaceX's "crown jewel" due to its robust 40% operating margins and 63% adjusted EBITDA margins. Starlink operates a constellation of 9,600 satellites, serving 10.3 million subscribers across 164 countries. It includes consumer broadband, enterprise, government (StarShield), and mobile offerings. Despite declining Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) due to lower-priced plans, Starlink strategically aims to expand market share in its infancy. The V3 satellites promise 20x throughput capacity of V2, further improving efficiency. The hosts note SpaceX's strong low-cost provider advantage in the space segment, making it incredibly difficult for new entrants to compete. However, they raise concerns about the AI segment's weak moat, comparing SpaceX's multi-segment structure to Alibaba, where one strong segment subsidizes weaker ones. Financially, SpaceX is in heavy reinvestment mode, reflected in its negative cash flow. The recent IPO raised $85.7 billion, significantly improving its cash position to $101.5 billion against $30 billion in debt, resulting in negative net debt. This massive capital infusion is slated for AI infrastructure, launch enhancements, and satellite expansion. Executive compensation, particularly for Elon Musk, is tied to extraordinary long-term goals, including reaching a $7.5 trillion market cap *and* establishing a permanent human colony on Mars with a million inhabitants. Key risks include extreme overvaluation (110x revenue, 500x adjusted EBITDA), "reflexivity" where Elon's narrative disproportionately influences stock price, key man risk (Elon Musk's dual CEO roles and polarizing actions), and regulatory challenges across its diverse industries. The prospectus's $28.5 trillion TAM is heavily scrutinized; the hosts estimate a more realistic TAM closer to $600 billion by significantly reducing the inflated figures for connectivity and AI. The host's valuation model, assuming a 37% revenue CAGR to 2031 and 26% EBITDA margins, still projects a negative compounded annual return, even with a conservative 30x EV/EBITDA multiple. This indicates the stock is heavily overpriced and requires incredibly high growth rates to justify its current valuation. Despite acknowledging Elon Musk's track record, the hosts conclude that SpaceX is "way too rich for our tastes" at its current price, and they prefer to remain on the sidelines, waiting for a more attractive entry point.
