Anthropic's IPO may surpass SpaceX's latest offering and set a new record.

Multiple investors informed the FT that Anthropic's swift revenue increase is expected to enable it to significantly surpass its IPO valuation. In its May round, it was assessed at $965 billion.

Shareholders are convinced that the swift increase in demand for the company's cutting-edge AI models and tools validates these high expectations. They predict that Anthropic's annual revenue will be between $100 billion and $120 billion by the conclusion of 2026. This would indicate an increase in annual revenue of over ten times.

Investors indicate that Anthropic's leadership has not set a target valuation for the firm; this information has not been revealed even in confidential discussions.

The AI giant submitted an initial IPO registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in June.
