Anthropic Chooses Nasdaq for Initial Public Offering

Anthropic announced June 1 that it confidentially submitted a draft S-1 to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The filing gives Anthropic an option to proceed after the regulator completes its review. Anthropic said market conditions would determine whether the offering moves forward. Anthropic said it had not set the share count or price.
Anthropic raised $65 billion in May at a $965 billion post-money valuation. Its annualised revenue run rate exceeded $65 billion by July’s end, rising from roughly $9 billion in late 2025.
That measure estimates recent sales activity and does not equal recognised annual revenue. Reported losses sharpen the test for the Anthropic IPO.
Anthropic reportedly posted a net loss of nearly $42 billion in 2025 amid high computing costs. The prospectus should show whether margins, cash usage, and customer concentration improved during 2026.
