Rocket Lab joins the Nasdaq-100 Index
Rocket Lab's addition to the Nasdaq-100 Index took effect before the market open on Monday, June 22, placing the launch and space-systems company among the 100 largest non-financial firms listed on the Nasdaq. The inclusion, announced June 12, follows record Q1 2026 revenue of $200.3 million and a backlog above $2.2 billion as Rocket Lab builds toward the first flight of its medium-lift Neutron rocket, still targeted for late 2026. CEO Sir Peter Beck called the milestone a reflection of the company's journey 'from a small company with big ambitions to a global space leader.'
