That is likely to lift the carrying value of Google\u2019s long-standing investment in Elon Musk\u2019s rocket and satellite company.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alphabet, Google\u2019s parent, has been an investor in SpaceX since at least 2015, when it joined Fidelity Investments in a $1 billion funding round for a combined stake of about 10% at the time, Bloomberg has\u00a0reported.<\/p>\n<p>A representative for Google declined to comment, citing their policy of not disclosing or commenting on individual private holdings.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A similar revaluation boosted Alphabet\u2019s earnings earlier this year. In April, the company disclosed an $8 billion unrealized gain tied to its investment in a private company \u2014 widely understood to be SpaceX \u2014 after a tender offer late last year valued the company at about $350 billion. That gain helped lift Alphabet\u2019s net income for the March quarter above Wall Street expectations.<\/p>\n<p>While Alphabet does not name individual private holdings in its financial filings, changes in SpaceX\u2019s valuation have previously flowed through earnings as \u201cunrealized gains on non-marketable equity securities.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With SpaceX\u2019s latest tender implying a much higher valuation, investors will be watching Alphabet\u2019s next earnings report for signs of another accounting boost.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"not-prose empty:contents [:has(*[data-empty=true])]:hidden\">\n<div class=\"typography-level-4 mt-4 font-graphik-compact [&amp;_*_a]:hover:underline\" data-cy=\"subscriptionPlea\"><span class=\"description-parser contents\"><strong>Join us at the Fortune Workplace Innovation Summit <\/strong>May 19\u201320, 2026, in Atlanta.
