Anthropic IPO launch shifts toward mid-October: Report
Anthropic, the artificial intelligence company, is preparing to begin marketing its initial public offering (IPO) in mid-October, according to sources familiar with the matter. The listing is expected to occur just before the U.S. midterm elections in November. This shift in timeline comes after the company was initially expected to release its IPO prospectus as early as next week, a key step in the process.
However, this is now anticipated to take place in late September, though the plans, including the timing, are subject to change. The IPO could potentially be one of the largest ever attempted, with some investors valuing it at $2 trillion, reflecting the rapid growth of the AI industry. Anthropic is looking to finalize a $15 billion revolving credit facility, after which analysts from the involved banks are expected to meet with the company.
Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and Citi are among the banks assisting with the IPO process.
