Anthropic eyes $2 trillion valuation in potential IPO

Anthropic, the developer of the Claude chatbot, is preparing for a potential initial public offering (IPO) that could value the company at $2 trillion or more. The company aims to raise upwards of $100 billion in its Wall Street debut, which is tentatively expected to occur in October.

Recent financial indicators show significant growth, with an annualized revenue run rate reported at $65 billion. Some reports suggest that preliminary data for the second quarter of 2026 showed revenues increasing more than 14 times compared to the same period the previous year. To support its operations, the company's revolving credit facility may exceed its $10 billion target.

In preparation for the IPO, Anthropic is considering a dual-class stock structure. This would grant CEO Dario Amodei and other co-founders supervoting power to insulate leadership from external shareholder pressure. Currently, Amodei holds approximately 2% ownership. The company also intends to maintain its existing non-shareholder trustees through a special class of stock to elect a majority of the board of directors. Anthropic is structured as a public benefit corporation, utilizing a Long-Term Benefit Trust to oversee its social and public benefit mission.
