BRC Group Holdings, Inc. Provides Update on SpaceX Carried Interest Position
LOS ANGELES, June 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- BRC Group Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: RILY) ("BRC" or the "Company") today provided supplemental information regarding its indirect economic interest in Space Exploration Technologies Corp. ("SpaceX"), following SpaceX's initial public offering on June 12, 2026 (the "IPO"). The Company discussed this interest in its latest filing on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2026 filed on May 7, 2026 and its most recent quarterly earnings call on May 7, 2026.
Between 2018 and 2021, the Company's wealth management business facilitated client investments in SpaceX through subsidiaries of the Company that hold carried interest in certain special purpose vehicles (the "SPVs"). During this period, clients invested approximately $233 million into the SPVs. The Company's subsidiaries' carried interest represents a share of the returns generated on a portion of these investments.
Based on SpaceX's closing price of $160.95 per share on June 12, 2026:
- Gross carried interest: The gross aggregate value of the Company's subsidiaries' carried interest in the SPVs was approximately $84.2 million; and
- Net carried interest: The Company's expected net proceeds in respect of such carried interest, after deduction of estimated expenses, period adjustments, and accrued payouts, were approximately $70.4 million.
The value of the Company's carried interest will fluctuate based upon SpaceX's share price. Each $5.00 change in SpaceX's share price would result in an estimated $2.3 million change in net carried interest. All amounts remain subject to customary IPO lock-up restrictions, which expire in stages through the remainder of the calendar year.
The amounts above are preliminary, unaudited management estimates, and are presented for informational purposes only. The value of the Company's carried interest and the amount and timing of any net proceeds actually realized will depend on, among other things, the trading price of SpaceX common stock when the SPVs sell or distribute their shares, the expiration of applicable lock-up and other transfer restrictions, the unaffiliated third-party manager's discretion on the timing of any sales by the SPVs, the timing of any distributions by the SPVs, transaction costs, taxes, and final determinations of expenses, adjustments, and amounts payable to other parties.
The trading price of SpaceX common stock following the IPO may be volatile and may decline below the IPO price, including while the SpaceX shares held by the SPVs remain subject to lock-up restrictions. Accordingly, the value ultimately realized may be materially less than the amounts above, and there can be no assurance that the Company will realize any particular amount of value or net proceeds, or any at all, in respect of its carried interest in the SPVs.
