Rocket Lab secured its largest-ever Electron launch contract with Tokyo-based Synspective for 20 missions over several years, pushing its launch backlog beyond 100 missions. This multi-year deal, combined with a new Buy rating and $105 price target from Citigroup, boosted Rocket Lab's shares by 5%. However, financial terms remain undisclosed and the missions are scheduled years ahead, so investors should cautiously weigh the long-term growth potential. The company's ability to execute these launches will be key to realizing the stock's value.
