Anthropic Plans IPO Valuation Over $2 Trillion Amid Rising Costs and Losses
Anthropic, an AI company founded five years ago, plans an IPO that could value it at over $2 trillion, more than double its May 2025 estimate. The company reported a $42 billion net loss in 2025, largely due to a $34 billion accounting charge, and an operating loss exceeding $8 billion. Revenue grew 12-fold to nearly $4.6 billion, driven by demand for its Claude AI models. Anthropic faces substantial future commitments, including $518 billion in cloud and infrastructure costs, highlighting the high expenses of AI development. Its IPO may set a benchmark for valuing AI firms.
