OpenAI to bring in $20 billion less than previously expected
OpenAI says it will make $50 billion this year. That's quite a bit less than investors expected.
OpenAI has reportedly reduced its anticipated revenue for the year to $50 billion, $20 billion less than previous projections, according to a Financial Times report. This comes as AI companies like Anthropic and OpenAI spend billions on infrastructure, potentially rattling investors concerned about profitability. The $70 billion revenue figure was based on comparisons with Anthropic's revenue, which includes cloud provider revenue, a detail OpenAI does not account for.
OpenAI raised $122 billion in March at a $852 billion valuation, but CEO Sam Altman announced the IPO's delay until 2026 due to AI safety concerns. Despite this, Anthropic plans to go public this year, but reported a $42 billion loss in 2025.
