Anthropic targets November IPO at potential $2 trillion valuation
Anthropic has moved its planned initial public offering to November as investors discuss a deal that could value the Claude developer at roughly $2 trillion and raise up to $100 billion. People familiar with the preparations told the newspaper that the extra time would allow Anthropic to present third-quarter financial results to prospective investors. The company is expected to begin sharing more detailed financial information in the coming weeks, although the final timetable will depend on market conditions and investor demand.
️ Under the figures being discussed, Anthropic could seek a valuation of about $2 trillion and raise up to $100 billion. A transaction of that size would rank among the largest public offerings on record, but the valuation, share count and final proceeds remain subject to change. Investor meetings are expected to test demand before Anthropic settles the terms of the proposed sale. As part of that process, prospective shareholders are likely to examine the company’s revenue growth, computing costs, customer concentration and spending required to train and operate advanced AI models.
No public registration statement has been identified for the proposed offering. Until Anthropic files offering documents, details such as the exchange, ticker, underwriting banks, and number of shares will remain unconfirmed.
