3 Key Points

  1. 1

    On June 5, SpaceX announced a roughly three-year cloud service agreement with Google, under which SpaceX will provide access to roughly 110,000 Nvidia GPUs and other compute infrastructure from its AI data centers. Google will pay SpaceX $920 million per month from October 2024 through June 2029, with either party able to terminate with 90 days' notice starting in 2027.

  2. 2

    SpaceX separately disclosed an Anthropic data center compute deal valued at $1.25 billion per month through May 2029. Combined, these two agreements are projected to generate over $26 billion of revenue per year for SpaceX, compared with SpaceX's total 2025 revenue of $18.7 billion.

  3. 3

    SpaceX's AI unit, acquired earlier this year when the company purchased xAI, currently operates data centers providing 1 gigawatt of compute capacity. The AI unit generated an operating loss of nearly $2.5 billion in the first quarter of 2026, but the new revenue deals are expected to significantly change this trajectory.
