what happened

Virgin Galactic (SPCE) is aiming to start commercial service in early second quarter 2027. The second spaceship is due to enter service later that quarter or in early third quarter. According to TradingView, the company plans to raise up to $250 million through an at-the-market share program to fund the ramp-up, growth projects and debt reduction.

A planned hangar could also lift capacity to 150 annual flights.

why it matters

For investors, the key question is how the new share issuance fits with the timeline for commercial operations. An at-the-market program lets the company sell shares on the open market at prevailing prices, which can dilute existing holders. The source is an AI-generated summary, so timing and amounts should be checked against the company's own filings.
