Anthropic is holding investor meetings ahead of a potential IPO launch as soon as September or early October, according to recent reporting from CNBC and other outlets. The AI company filed a confidential S-1 with regulators on June 1 and is targeting a Nasdaq listing, with Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley serving as lead underwriters on an offering expected to raise more than $60 billion, which would rank among the largest US IPOs on record. Anthropic was last valued at $965 billion following a $65 billion Series H-1 round in May, up from a $380 billion valuation just three months earlier in February. The company has reported more than 300,000 business customers, with its largest accounts growing more than sevenfold over the past year. Executives are reportedly addressing investor questions on the company's growth strategy, competition from Chinese AI labs, and tensions with the Trump administration ahead of the listing. A successful offering at this scale would make Anthropic the first AI lab to test public markets at this size, setting a reference point for how investors price frontier AI companies that are not yet profitable.
