Anthropic to Share Updated Financials with Investors Ahead of Potential IPO
San Francisco-based AI company Anthropic is set to disclose its third-quarter financial figures for the first time during a meeting with institutional investors this week. The move comes as the firm prepares what could be one of history's largest initial public offerings (IPO), potentially valued at $2 trillion based on recent revenue estimates that may exceed $100 billion by year-end. The disclosure follows market volatility triggered last week when revised OpenAI financials, which showed a drop from reported $70 billion to $50 billion in annualized revenues due to changes in accounting methods, caused declines among semiconductor stocks and the Nasdaq. Investors are now closely watching how Anthropic accounts for its revenue—particularly whether it includes partner sales—to better assess growth potential ahead of an IPO. Anthropic filed confidentially with the SEC earlier this year but has yet to make public filings. While a November listing date is rumored, no official confirmation exists. The timing comes amid rising interest rates and concerns over capital access for AI firms, as highlighted by Broadcom CEO Hock Tan.
