What the data says
An overview of the public data behind RKLB.
At $64.26, the stock sits roughly 57% below its 52-week high of $151.00 and about 71% above its 52-week low of $37.57. A range that wide — the high is four times the low — describes a stock that has moved through very different pricing regimes within a single year, and the current level sits closer to the middle of that band than to either end. A beta of 2.61 is consistent with that history: the shares have historically moved more than twice as far as the broader market in both directions.
The roughly $41.9 billion market capitalization is being applied to a business that is not currently profitable, with a profit margin of about -21.5%, alongside revenue growth near 62%. That combination is why the forward price-to-earnings figure reads near 1,475 — the multiple rests on a very small expected earnings base rather than an established one, so it says more about how thin projected profits are than about ordinary earnings pricing. The price-to-book ratio of about 11.2 is the cleaner reference point here, showing the market valuing the company well above its accounting net asset value.
Recent coverage splits between company-specific developments and the wider space sector. The company-specific items center on the Neutron vehicle's schedule, with several pieces addressing a further slip and the possibility of a move into 2027, plus commentary on Space Development Network contract work and a report of the CFO selling more than 140,000 shares worth roughly $8.8 million. The rest of the flow is sector-level rather than about this company: articles on a SpaceX share unlock and on Intuitive Machines' backlog and share decline, indicating the news cycle is partly tracking space-industry sentiment as a whole.
