Nah there is no way sophisticated space travel like that would happen under capitalism. They'd run out of resources/destroy their planet before they make it.
Besides, privately run companies are inefficient and waste a bunch of time chasing profit and doing stupid shit like sending burgers into orbit.
Look at Space X, they can't even do anything worthwhile with the technology Nasa invented 50 years ago. They've created nothing new and have just made their own bastardised version. They don't give a shit about Space exploration (outside of exploiting it) so they do stupid shit that cripples astronomy like sending a fuckton of super-bright Starlink satellites into orbit without thinking things through.
You're telling me if capitalists discovered a planet with huge amounts of resources and a primitive population that could be enslaved they wouldn't find a way to colonize that shit? You're way too optimistic.
Getting resources off earth is a lot harder than getting resources out of the asteroid belt. There's undoubtedly a lot of asteroid belts between us and them.
With our dumb ass stupid technology, we're within a few decades to rendering human labor obsolete. If they can get here, I think they're more likely to eat us than enslave us.
Oh, I think they would if they could. I just think they'd either have destroyed their home planet/themselves before they achieve that level of technology, or they would be too incompetent/stupidly run to ever get to that level.

Edit: Just pray that they aren't Vogons.

This is literally why the Anunnaki created humans in the first place
