| Year | Price | Value | Annual |

| 2023 | $10.12 | $1,000 | - |
| 2024 | $3.78 | $374 | -62.6% |

What this return means
A $1,000 stake in Intuitive Machines (LUNR) from 2023 has grown to $2,114. That is a +111.4% gain, a little over 2.1x your money, measured to 2026-06-01.
In compound terms that is roughly 23.2% a year, well above what a broad index has historically returned. By comparison the S&P 500 returned about $1,916 on the same stake, putting Intuitive Machines ahead by close to $197. The index compounded at about 19.9% a year over that period.
Getting here meant sitting through real volatility. The best single year was 2025 at +473.5%, and the worst was 2024 at -62.6%. At its lowest point the position was down about 63% from an earlier high. These figures use split-adjusted closing prices and exclude dividends, taxes, trading fees, and inflation, so a real after-tax result would differ.

What if you invested $100 a month instead?
Most people do not drop a lump sum in on day one. They add a fixed amount every month. Putting $100 into Intuitive Machines at the close of every month from January 2023 through June 2026 means 42 buys and $4,200 contributed over about 3.5 years.
$100/month, dollar-cost averaged
$12,415
+195.6% on $4,200 in
Same $4,200, all in at the start
$8,877
+111.4% on $4,200 in
Spreading the buys out beat going all in at the start by $3,538. That happens when the price spent time below where it began, so averaging in caught the cheaper months. Averaging in also meant an average buy price of $7.24 per share across the whole stretch, so the monthly buyer never had to time a single low. Neither number counts dividends, taxes, or trading costs.
