Anthropic sets IPO price range valuing company at approximately $1 trillion
Anthropic aims to raise up to $100 billion, which would make it the largest IPO ever. The valuation is lower than previously discussed figures but remains higher than OpenAI's recent valuation.
Anthropic has released its IPO price range, valuing the company at approximately $1 trillion based on market cap, or $1.4 trillion on a fully diluted basis including employee and charity shares. The price range is set between $70 and $78 per share. The company aims to raise $90.4 billion, potentially reaching $100 billion with the greenshoe option, which would make it the largest IPO ever, surpassing SpaceX's $86 billion. This valuation is significantly lower than the $2 trillion figure previously discussed, though it remains higher than OpenAI's recent $1.25 trillion valuation.
Investors can subscribe via platforms like Trade Republic and Scalable, with some using leverage to maximize allocation chances. Commentators described the IPO as a 'once in a lifetime' opportunity, noting that the valuation has become more realistic compared to earlier expectations. One host expressed willingness to invest at the lower valuation, highlighting the shift from previous high-end estimates.
