SPACE EXPLORATION TECHNOLOGIES CORP

On June 22, 2026, the Company announced the commencement of an offering of senior unsecured notes (the “Notes”) to persons reasonably believed to be “qualified institutional buyers” in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes will be unsecured obligations of the Company and will rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future unsubordinated indebtedness, liabilities and other obligations of the Company.

The timing of pricing and terms of the Notes are subject to market conditions and other factors. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Notes offering to repay the outstanding borrowings under its bridge loan facility in full, to pay related fees and expenses, and any remaining amount for general corporate purposes. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any state or other jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
