Answers are derived from the roster record shown on this page — filing status, last round and confirmed marks. Where the record is silent, the answer says so rather than guessing.
Boom Supersonic is designing the Overture, a 64-80 seat Mach 1.7 commercial airliner, alongside its own Symphony turbofan engine. The XB-1 demonstrator achieved its first supersonic flight in January 2025, and the Trump administration's June 2025 executive order lifting the 50-year overland supersonic ban materially expanded Boom's addressable market. American Airlines, United Airlines, and Japan Airlines have placed pre-orders for Overture.

Implied per-share price from private secondary transactions, as of Jun 2026. This is a point estimate, not a quote — the feed carries no bid, ask or spread, and a secondary print is evidence of what someone paid on that date rather than a live market. The feed’s last-round price for this company is not a plausible per-share figure, so no comparison is shown. Compare across every tracked name →
