Updated on:

SpaceX shareholders approved a 5-for-1 stock split as the company prepares for a potential IPO, with share values adjusted and listing plans reportedly targeting Nasdaq in June.

(Reuters) - A majority of SpaceX shareholders have ​approved a 5-for-1 stock split recommended by ‌the company's board, Bloomberg News reported on Friday, citing people familiar with the matter.

Shareholders of ​IPO-bound SpaceX were informed via email ​that the stock's fair market value was ⁠adjusted to $105.32 per share from $526.59 following ​the split, the report said. The stock split ​will be processed during the week of May 18 and is expected to be completed by May ​22, Bloomberg reported.

Reuters exclusively reported on ​Friday that Elon Musk's rocket and satellite maker SpaceX is ‌aiming ⁠to list its shares as early as June 12 and has picked the Nasdaq as the trading venue for its blockbuster market ​debut.

The company ​is likely ⁠to seek to raise about $75 billion at a valuation of ​roughly $1.75 trillion, which would make it ​the ⁠largest stock market flotation of all time, Reuters has previously reported.

SpaceX did not immediately ⁠respond ​to a request for ​comment outside regular business hours.
