What is Shield AI’s valuation?

Shield AI is a private US space defense company. As a private company it has no live share price; its “valuation” comes from funding rounds, tenders and private secondary trades — most recently about $12.7B (as of 2026-03). Any private valuation is a point-in-time snapshot, not a market quote — see why a headline valuation differs from what one share is worth.
