65% : Even before Musk befriended Trump, SpaceX had been on quite a run.64% : His other big private company, social media firm X, dropped to No. 185 from No. 149 last year, with estimated revenue of $3.4 billion for 2023, down from $4.4 billion the previous year.
62% : Other newcomers include Valve Corporation (No. 139), the company behind the bestselling Half-Life videogame, with estimated revenue of $5 billion; restaurant supply firm Clark Associates (No, 174) and homebuilder Perry Homes (No. 242).
60% : Tapped by Trump to co-chair newly created advisory board Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Musk will continue to work alongside the president-elect.
57% : It was enough to rocket it up 85 spots to No. 60 this year, making it the biggest gainer on Forbes' 2024 list of America's Top Private Companies.
57% : The highest-ranked newcomer, at No. 62, is US LBM, a distributor of specialty building materials.
54% : Such close ties with Trump bode well for SpaceX, which has already gotten nearly $20 billion in government contracts over the years from such clients as NASA and the Department of Defense and is valued at $210 billion by private investors.
52% : Nearby was Elon Musk, the SpaceX CEO and the world's richest person, with whom Trump has been spending a lot of time since the November 5 election.
50% : Coca-Cola Beverages Florida joins the list at No. 264.
47% : Sierra Nevada Corporation is one of four returnees to the list at No. 274-meaning it made the list in the past, fell off and has re-joined the ranks.
