No it is not. From wiki:

A cost-plus contract, also termed a cost plus contract, is a contract such that a contractor is paid for all of its allowed expenses, plus additional payment to allow for risk and incentive sharing.

Spacex has received money over the last 20 years because they were awarded different contracts and they provided different services to the government.

From re-supplying the ISS, to launching satellites, to taking people to orbit.
