Qué pasó
On November 10 Anthropic filed an updated IPO prospectus with the SEC. The company and some holders are selling 825 million Class A shares at $70 to $78. At the top that is up to $64.4 billion. The stock is set to trade on Nasdaq as ANT. Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley lead the deal.
Por qué te importa
It is one of the largest IPOs ever and a test of what markets will pay for AI. By Reuters' math, the top of the range values the company at about $1.4 trillion fully diluted, about $1 trillion without options. Demand for this stock will color the whole AI sector.

What happened. Anthropic, the maker of the Claude chatbot, filed Amendment No. 2 to its Form S-1. That is the prospectus for its initial public offering. For the first time it includes a price range: $70 to $78 per Class A share.
Who sells. The company sells 801.35 million shares and selling holders 23.65 million, 825 million in total. Underwriters can buy up to 123.75 million more from the company. Anthropic gets no money from the shares holders sell.
Big partners. At the same time there is a $26 billion private placement of non-voting Class N shares at the IPO price. Buyers: Google, Nvidia, AMD, Broadcom, Micron, Microsoft and TSMC. Google and Nvidia take 135.1 million shares each. Reuters says the total with the IPO is up to $90.4 billion.
The business. Revenue for the first nine months of 2026 was $33.2 billion, versus $4.6 billion for all of 2025. The nine-month net loss was $104 billion, but $94.3 billion of it is a revaluation of convertible notes, which rise in value as the company's valuation rises. Reuters says annualized revenue was about $81 billion as of October 31.
Who is in charge. Class A shares carry one vote. A majority of the board is elected by an independent Long-Term Benefit Trust through a special Class T share. Buyers on the exchange do not control the board.
The money goes to compute, infrastructure and hiring. There are no commitments for large acquisitions now. Reuters notes Anthropic was valued at $965 billion in its last private round.
