Anthropic files confidentially for IPO at $2T+ valuation
Anthropic has confidentially filed an S-1 with the U.S. SEC and plans to list on Nasdaq after November's U.S. midterm elections, seeking up to $100 billion in proceeds at a target valuation above $2 trillion, according to multiple media reports cited in the republished commentary. The same account says the company booked $4.6 billion in 2025 revenue (up about 12x year over year) with roughly $65 billion in annualized revenue, but a net loss of about $42 billion — around $34 billion of it non-cash accounting charges — plus some $518 billion in future compute and infrastructure commitments, 80% non-cancellable. It adds that about 47% of revenue flows through AWS and Google Cloud channels and nearly a quarter comes from two large customers, while firms such as PitchBook are said to see the valuation as unsupported by fundamentals.
If completed, it would be the largest IPO ever and a public-market stress test of the high-growth, high-loss AI business model.
