LONG BEACH, Calif., April 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rocket Lab Corporation (Nasdaq: RKLB) (“Rocket Lab” or the “Company”), a global leader in launch services and space systems, today announced it has completed its previously disclosed “at-the-market” equity offering program (the “ATM Program”).
On March 17, 2026, Rocket Lab filed a prospectus supplement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to offer and sell shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $1,000,000,000. The Company sold an aggregate of 6,726,862 shares under the ATM Program in at-the-market transactions for aggregate gross proceeds (before commissions and offering expenses) of approximately $474 million. Additionally, pursuant to the ATM Program, the Company entered into collared forward transactions and sold an aggregate of 7,451,200 shares of common stock for minimum expected proceeds of approximately $474 million and maximum expected proceeds of approximately $642 million. The minimum and maximum expected proceeds are based on maturity dates scheduled to occur in April 2028. Actual proceeds will depend on, among other things, if the Company elects to settle the collared forward transactions prior to the scheduled maturity dates, as well as the cap price and floor price set forth in each collared forward transaction.
Rocket Lab intends to use the net proceeds from the ATM Program to fund future growth, including potential future acquisitions, and for general corporate and working capital purposes.
