Anthropic, the artificial intelligence company behind the Claude chatbot, plans to sell 825 million shares at $70 to $78 apiece in its initial public offering, according to a filing reported by The Hill and France 24.
Most reports put the target valuation at up to about $1.4 trillion. Fox Business, however, reported a figure of around $1.02 trillion, well short of the $1.5 trillion previously discussed, as Wall Street reassesses the cost of AI.
The New York Times reports the pricing would make it one of the biggest public listings in history, arriving at a volatile moment as investors question whether the AI boom can last. The Hill reports the offering is expected later this month.
If it goes forward, Anthropic would be the first frontier AI lab to trade publicly, according to Bloomberg.
