Anthropic’s revenue in the third quarter reached US$16.8 billion and it plans to launch an IPO roadshow in November. According to Bloomberg, the artificial intelligence company Anthropic disclosed to potential investors that its revenue in the third quarter of 2026 will reach US$16.8 billion and achieve adjusted profits. Anthropic, which developed the Claude model, held an investor promotion meeting at its San Francisco headquarters on Wednesday local time. It disclosed that the company had achieved positive free cash flow as of the third quarter, with an adjusted gross profit margin of 85% and an adjusted operating profit margin of more than 11%. People familiar with the matter said that Anthropic plans to launch an initial public offering (IPO) road show as early as the week of November 9, with the goal of listing the company before Thanksgiving and striving to complete the listing within the year. However, the relevant time schedule may still be adjusted. Bloomberg previously reported that Anthropic hopes that the scale of this IPO will reach or even exceed the scale of SpaceX’s listing. Anthropic’s latest operating data contrasts with previous losses. Bloomberg disclosed that the company’s revenue in 2025 will be approximately US$4.6 billion, higher than US$386 million in 2024, but its full-year net loss will be close to US$42 billion, with operating losses exceeding US$8 billion. At the same time, Anthropic is facing pressure from competitors such as OpenAI and Meta. Meta recently launched the Muse Wonder model, saying it has equivalent capabilities to ChatGPT and Claude in terms of programming and handling financial and legal issues. AI security issues and cyber attacks caused by agents have also increased the market's attention to related corporate risks. According to reports, some investors had previously expected the valuation of Anthropic to be approximately US$1.8 trillion to US$2 trillion. Its listing process and investor feedback on the latest financial performance will become an important window for observing the commercialization capabilities and capital market valuation of AI companies. At the same time, data center operator AirTrunk has postponed its Singapore IPO to 2027, and Australian data center company Firmus's listing plan has also failed. Anthropic is still striving to go public within the year. via AI News (author: AI Base)
