In a move reflecting the success of long-term investment bets in the technology and aerospace sectors, Kingdom Holding Company witnessed significant growth in its private equity portfolio. According to reports, the value of the stake held by Prince Alwaleed bin Talal’s firm in SpaceX surged to nearly $7 billion. This increase was driven by the strong performance of SpaceX shares on their first day of public trading, directly boosting Kingdom Holding's net asset value.
This valuation surge comes at a time when major tech firms are experiencing mixed volatility, with peers like Tesla recording annual growth in market capitalization while investors closely monitor private space firm valuations. Compared to previous funding rounds in 2024, SpaceX's market value has more than doubled, exceeding initial analyst estimates and positioning Kingdom Holding as a primary beneficiary of this transition to public ownership per market data.
