Anthropic设定IPO发行价区间70至78美元，隐含估值达1.404万亿美元

Anthropic intends to push ahead with its IPO despite shakier markets and the broader pullback from AI investing.

The Claude-maker said in an updated IPO filing on Tuesday that it would be offering a total of 825 million Class A shares at an estimated price range of $70 to $78 per share. The sale is expected to raise anywhere from $57.75 billion to $64.35 billion.

The company could end up being worth a hefty $1.404 trillion if its shares list at the top of the price range, on a fully diluted basis. That would represent a significant jump up from the $965 billion valuation Anthropic reached in a May fundraise, but it’s still lower than the $2 trillion the company was reportedly targeting a couple months ago.

Separately, Anthropic said it had struck a deal to privately sell $26 billion of non-voting Class N stock at the IPO price to AMD, Broadcom, Google, Micron, Microsoft, Nvidia and TSMC. Google and Nvidia are investing $10 billion apiece.

All up, Anthropic estimates net proceeds to reach somewhere between $84.6 billion to $93.7 billion.

Underwriters, including Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, will have the option to buy up to 123.75 million more shares from Anthropic at the IPO price.

As a public benefit corporation, the founders hold a Class F share with 50.1% of the voting power. The Long-Term Benefit Trust will also elect a board majority, so Class A buyers will have limited influence.

Anthropic intends to start trading on the Nasdaq close to November 19, per reporting from CNBC, under the ticker symbol “ANT”.

Anthropic’s third-quarter revenue came in at $17 billion, and nine-month revenue was $33.2 billion. The company reported a nine-month net loss of $104 billion, with compute and infrastructure commitments hitting $900.9 billion. It has nearly $132 billion in cash and short-term investments.

OpenAI, Anthropic’s biggest rival, was reportedly valued at $1.25 trillion last week after it raised $11 billion, nearly half the $20 billion it had first tried to raise.
