The most expensive private company in the U.S. was named
U.S. businessman Ilon Musk SpaceX offered private investors to buy shares of $ 77 a piece, Bloomberg reported citing sources. Thus, this is the most expensive private U.S. company with an estimated capitalization of $ 140 billion.
In the summer, Musk's company was valued at $127 billion. Sources say that SpaceX several weeks negotiated the sale of securities to shareholders. As a result, the parties settled on an estimate of $140 billion in a tender offer.
And while Musk's company is the most expensive in the U.S., in the world it is second, with the Chinese ByteDance in first place with an estimated $300 billion.
In early December, Elon Musk lost the first place in the Forbes billionaire ranking, losing it to the head of LVMH Moet Hennessy - Louis Vuitton Bernard Arnault. The American entrepreneur dropped to second place in the list several times in an hour, but later regained the position.
