Anthropic intends to raise up to $64.4 billion during its IPO

Anthropic, the developer of the Claude AI assistant, has announced the start of meetings with potential investors ahead of its initial public offering (IPO). According to an official statement dated November 10, 2026, the company plans to offer 825 million Class A securities at a price of $70 to $78 per unit.

Of this volume, about 801.4 million shares will be offered by Anthropic itself, and another 23.6 million by existing shareholders. At the upper end of the price range, the total offering amount will be about $64.4 billion.

As Bloomberg noted, Anthropic also expects to raise $26 billion as part of the private placement. Among the potential investors are Google, Microsoft, NVIDIA, AMD, Broadcom, Micron, and TSMC.

Thus, the total amount of capital raised under the two deals could reach $90.4 billion, and Anthropic's valuation could be approximately $1.4 trillion. The offering will become one of the largest in stock market history, although in terms of volume this IPO will still be inferior to SpaceX's record offering, which raised about $86 billion.

The company intends to list on Nasdaq under the ticker ANT. In addition, the underwriters will be able to purchase an additional 123.75 million shares within 30 days after the IPO. If this option is exercised, the amount of funds raised could increase by approximately another $9.7 billion.

According to the registration documents, Anthropic plans to use the proceeds to develop its business, fund operating expenses, expand computing infrastructure, and attract specialists.

Recall that on June 1, 2026, Anthropic submitted a confidential draft registration statement to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). At that time, the company did not disclose the expected share price or the size of the offering.

Later, on October 26, the developer of Claude publicly presented its registration statement on Form S-1, confirming its intention to list on Nasdaq. However, the price range and number of shares were determined only now.

Anthropic emphasized that the registration statement has not yet become effective. Until the approval procedure is completed, the company will not be able to sell shares or accept orders to purchase them.
