June 4 (Reuters) - Goldman Sachs ⁠expects revenue from SpaceX's AI division to surge to $322 billion ⁠by 2030, up from $3.2 billion in 2025, according to the Wall ‌Street bank's forecasts shared with a potential investor, the Financial Times reported on Thursday.

The investment bank has estimated SpaceX's total revenue to reach $474 billion in 2030 from $18.7 billion ​last year, the report added.

Goldman has forecast ⁠revenue at SpaceX's AI segment ⁠to soar 388% from a year earlier to $15.6 billion in 2026, and ⁠reach $34.5 ‌billion in 2027, according to the report, citing a person familiar with the matter.

Goldman Sachs did not immediately respond to ⁠a Reuters request for comment. Reuters could not independently ​confirm the report.

The ‌investment bank is serving as lead underwriter of the offering. Other ⁠underwriters for ​SpaceX’s massive share sale include Morgan Stanley, BofA Securities, Citigroup and J.P. Morgan.

Elon Musk's company aims to raise $75 billion, the most ever for an IPO, ⁠with a valuation of $1.75 trillion, immediately placing it ​among the top 10 most valuable U.S.-listed firms.

The company publicly set a $135 price for shares in its IPO on Wednesday and kicked off its ⁠roadshow today, with pricing expected on June 11. Trading in shares will begin on the Nasdaq the next day.

Despite the lofty valuations, investors are expected to scrambleto secure a position in the deal, drawn by ​Elon Musk's track record.

However, Morningstar analysts pegged SpaceX's ⁠valuation at $780 billion, less than half the company's IPO target.

Prospects for the ​company's AI business, which includes xAI and ‌social media platform X, were uncertain given ​unclear economics and competition from OpenAI and Anthropic, according to Morningstar.
