SpaceX = 65-75% of revenue. 5-yr GaN RF amplifier supply deal, $115M+ value confirmed. Pure-play SpaceX beneficiary with growth locked in.

Mkt Cap: ~$200M Entry: Pullbacks to 50-day MA

Starlink v3 ramp (2026-27) · SpaceX IPO re-rating · potential secondary listing

Concentration risk: one customer dominates. Small-cap liquidity on OTC.

STM HIGH STMicroelectronics NYSE: STM

Confirmed multi-billion chip supplier for Starlink v2/v3 user terminals. SoCs, power management, MEMS sensors. Benefits from volume ramp regardless of competitive moat.

Mkt Cap: ~$20B Entry: Buy on semis weakness; core position

Starlink v3 terminal production · SpaceX IPO secondary demand · automotive recovery

STM revenue diversified — SpaceX ~5-8% of total. Cyclical semis exposure.

VELO SPECULATIVE Velo3D NASDAQ: VELO

Confirmed SpaceX Raptor engine supplier — Sapphire metal AM system prints combustion chambers and fuel manifolds with zero support structures. SpaceX was the dominant customer. Filed Ch.11 Feb 2024; relisted post-restructuring as VELO. Represents the highest-conviction SpaceX manufacturing link in public markets, but capital structure and liquidity warrant scrutiny.

Mkt Cap: ~$100-200M (post-reorg) Entry: Only on deep research into new capital structure; small position

Post-restructuring re-rating · Starship production ramp drives Raptor 3 orders · SpaceX IPO supplier halo effect

Ch.11 history; dilution risk from new equity; small float post-restructure; single-customer concentration.

Sources: Velo3D SEC filings  ·  SpaceX Raptor AM supplier disclosures
DDD MEDIUM 3D Systems NYSE: DDD

Direct Metal Printing (DMP) platform qualified for aerospace and space hardware. DMP Flex 350 produces titanium and Inconel parts for propulsion and structural space applications. Broader AM portfolio (plastics, medical) provides revenue diversification while space/defense is a growth vector.

Mkt Cap: ~$400-600M Entry: Buy on weakness with stop below 52-week low

Space & defense AM adoption ramp · SpaceX IPO draws attention to AM supply chain · DDD restructuring / asset monetization

DDD has been a serial under-deliverer on growth. Balance sheet concerns. AM space highly competitive.

CRS MEDIUM Carpenter Technology NYSE: CRS

High-performance alloys for Raptor and Merlin engine turbopumps. Raptor 3 production ramp + Starship cadence increase is direct revenue driver.

Mkt Cap: ~$5B Entry: Accumulate on dips; pair with ATI

Starship IFT cadence increase · Raptor 3 full-rate production · defense orders

Alloy market is competitive. SpaceX share of CRS revenue ~10-15%.

RKLB MEDIUM Rocket Lab USA NASDAQ: RKLB

Best pure-play publicly traded launch company. Electron operational, Neutron mid-lift in development. Spacecraft manufacturing adds revenue diversity. SpaceX IPO validates the sector.

Mkt Cap: ~$8B Entry: Core position; size for volatility

Neutron first launch (2026) · US DoD contracts · SpaceX IPO sector re-rating

Neutron delays. SpaceX Falcon competition. Dilution risk.

ASTS MEDIUM AST SpaceMobile NASDAQ: ASTS

Direct-to-cell broadband from space. Partners with AT&T, Verizon, Vodafone. Block 1 constellation operational. Competes with Starlink D2D but serves carrier ecosystem differently.

Mkt Cap: ~$5B Entry: Speculative allocation; use defined risk (options)

Block 2 constellation · commercial service launch · carrier contract expansion

Capital intensive. Execution risk on Block 2. Spectrum disputes.

IRDM MEDIUM Iridium Communications NASDAQ: IRDM

Profitable, cash-generative LEO network. L-band IoT and safety services not replicable by Starlink in short term. Defensive allocation in space portfolio with 3%+ dividend.

Mkt Cap: ~$4B Entry: Core defensive; income + optionality

NEXT generation satellite refresh · defense IoT contracts · safety-of-life mandates

Long-term Starlink L-band competition. Slow growth.

DXYZ SPECULATIVE Destiny Tech100 NASDAQ: DXYZ

Closed-end fund holding ~15% SpaceX (pre-IPO). Traded at extreme premiums historically. Post-IPO, premium should compress but provides retail access to SpaceX and other unicorns.

Mkt Cap: ~$500M fund Entry: Only on deep discounts to estimated NAV

SpaceX IPO lock-up expiry · NAV re-rating · new unicorn positions

Historically trades at 500-1000%+ premium to NAV. NAV compression risk post-IPO is severe.
