Anthropic has filed to list its Class A shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the ticker ANT, but as of 6 November 2026 the offering has not priced and no price range has been filed.
The public S-1 landed on 26 October and an amended filing on 2 November added third-quarter results: revenue of nearly $17 billion, up 47% on the second quarter, against an operating loss of $567 million and about $895 billion of purchase and lease commitments.
Reports point to a roadshow starting the week of 9 November and a debut before Thanksgiving, with a reported target valuation of $1.5 trillion that some investors are pushing to lower. I would treat every date and valuation in this post as a moving target until the price-range amendment is filed.

What Is the Anthropic IPO?
Anthropic is the AI company behind the Claude models. It is a Delaware public benefit corporation, and it has filed to list Class A common stock on the Nasdaq. Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley lead an underwriting group of 22 banks named in the filing.
Term | Detail |
|---|---|
Exchange | Nasdaq Global Select Market |
Ticker | ANT (Class A common stock) |
Structure | Delaware public benefit corporation |
Public S-1 filed | 26 October 2026 |
Amended S-1/A | 2 November 2026, adds Q3 results |
Share count and price range | Not yet filed |
Lead underwriters | Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley |
Last private valuation | $965 billion post-money (Series H, 28 May 2026) |
Reported IPO valuation target | $1.5 trillion (WSJ reporting, not company guidance) |
Reported raise | Up to $100 billion (WSJ reporting, not in the filing) |
Reported timing | Roadshow from the week of 9 November, debut before 26 November |
The bolded row is the one that matters. Until a share count and price range are filed, the valuation, the raise size and the dates are projections from news reports, not terms of an offer.
How Fast Is Anthropic Growing, and What Does It Cost to Keep Up?
Revenue went from $41 million in 2023 to $386 million in 2024 and $4.6 billion in 2025 (audited), then $16.3 billion in the first half of 2026 (unaudited). The third quarter alone came in at nearly $17 billion. That is a rate of growth I cannot recall seeing from a company this size.
Metric | Figure | Context |
|---|---|---|
Revenue, FY2025 | $4.6 billion | Audited |
Revenue, H1 2026 | $16.3 billion | Unaudited |
Revenue, Q3 2026 | Nearly $17 billion | Up 47% on Q2 ($11.6 billion), up 1,127% year on year |
Operating result, Q3 2026 | $567 million loss | Q2 was a $974 million profit |
Net loss, Q3 2026 | $23.29 billion | Reported figure |
Cash and liquid assets | $146.6 billion | Q3 2026 |
Purchase and lease commitments | $895.4 billion | Running through 2045, about half due by end 2030 |
Commitments due in next 12 months | $69.8 billion | After 30 September 2026 |
Read the growth line twice. Sequential revenue growth was 132% in Q1, 144% in Q2 and 47% in Q3. Still fast, but the pace of acceleration has cooled sharply, and I think that is the line the IPO debate is really about.
The net loss line is noisy. The filing attributes most of the first-half net loss of $80.7 billion to a $72.4 billion non-cash fair value change, so I lean on the operating line instead, which swung from a $974 million profit in Q2 to a $567 million loss in Q3.

How Can a Singapore Investor Get Exposure to the Anthropic IPO?

Anthropic is listing in the US, not on the SGX. As of this writing I have not seen a Singapore Depositary Receipt or any other SGX-listed route to it. Once ANT trades, the practical route is a broker with US market access. For how the main platforms compare on fees and features, see our broker comparison guide.
Whether your broker offers retail allocations in the offering itself is broker-specific, and retail slices of very large US IPOs tend to be small. Many investors will first get a chance on the open market after the first trade, when the price can sit well away from the offer price. Our Mi Material IPO analysis shows how that gap between offer price and listing day plays out on a much smaller deal.
There is also an indirect route. Reports name Amazon, Alphabet and Nvidia among Anthropic's major investors. Holding those gets you a thin slice of a far bigger business, not Anthropic itself, and each carries its own story. Our Alphabet (GOOGL) analysis covers one of them.
A short checklist before the first day of trading:
Confirm your broker offers US market access and which currency you fund in.
Read the amended S-1/A with the share count and price range once it is filed, not the headlines about it.
Check how US-listed holdings are treated for dividend withholding and US estate tax rules for non-US investors, since both can apply to Nasdaq-listed shares.
Decide how large a position you can live with if the price swings widely in the first weeks.

How Does the Reported Valuation Compare With Revenue?
Valuation marker | Source | Valuation | Multiple of annualised Q3 revenue |
|---|---|---|---|
Last private round (Series H, 28 May 2026) | Company filing | $965 billion | About 14x |
Nasdaq Private Market level | Reported | $1.41 trillion | About 21x |
Low end one investor reportedly floated | WSJ reporting | Around $1 trillion | About 15x |
Planned IPO valuation | WSJ reporting | $1.5 trillion | About 22x |
Earlier IPO talk | Reported | $2 trillion | About 29x |
One note on the last column. I multiplied Q3 revenue of roughly $17 billion by four to get about $68 billion. That is my own rough arithmetic, not a company figure, and it is a yardstick rather than a forecast. It also ignores the $146.6 billion of cash on the balance sheet.
The comparison I find more useful sits on the other side of the ledger. The $895.4 billion of commitments is about 13 times that annualised revenue. In plain terms, Anthropic has committed to spend roughly thirteen years of its current revenue on compute and related obligations, though about half falls due by the end of 2030. The $69.8 billion due in the next 12 months is covered about twice by cash on hand.
Is the Anthropic IPO Worth Watching? My Read
What stands out to me is the operating swing. A company that earned $974 million at the operating line in Q2 and lost $567 million in Q3 is choosing to spend ahead of its revenue. That can be read two ways. It can be a deliberate land grab by a business with real demand, or it can be a sign the cost of staying competitive is rising faster than pricing power.
The valuation debate is live as I write. Reports say three major investors told the WSJ the $1.5 trillion figure will likely need to fall, with one suggesting a level near $1 trillion, and one raising the possibility of delaying the listing or shrinking the offering.
Personally, I would want to see the price range and the stated use of proceeds before forming any view, because those two items will tell me more than the headline valuation does.
What Are the Key Risks?
Valuation reset. The reported target has already moved from about $2 trillion to $1.5 trillion, and investors are discussing lower. A reset before pricing is plausible.
Growth deceleration. Sequential growth slowed from 144% in Q2 to 47% in Q3. A further slowdown against a $1.5 trillion price tag is the scenario to stress test.
Commitment load. $895.4 billion of commitments through 2045 is large against about $68 billion of annualised revenue, even with $146.6 billion of cash.
Timing and size risk. The listing could slip or the offering could shrink. Reported dates range from the week of 9 November to the week of 16 November.
Market conditions. Reports link the investor pushback to a sharp selloff in the Nasdaq 100, and a weak tape can change how a large deal prices.
Information risk. Much of what circulates is second-hand reporting of filings and of private investor conversations. The S-1 and its amendments are the source to check.
What I would watch: the amended S-1/A with the price range and share count, the use of proceeds, and whether Q4 sequential growth stabilises or keeps slowing.
Frequently Asked Questions
When will the Anthropic IPO happen?
No date is set. Reports say the roadshow could start the week of 9 November with a debut before Thanksgiving on 26 November, and the WSJ has pointed to the week of 16 November. As of 5 November no price-range amendment had been filed, so treat every date as provisional.
What is the Anthropic IPO ticker?
The filing lists ANT for Class A common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market. The ticker only becomes active once the shares list.
How much is Anthropic worth?
The last company-stated valuation is $965 billion post-money from the Series H round in May 2026. Reports put the planned IPO valuation at $1.5 trillion, with investors pushing for lower, and Nasdaq Private Market shows $1.41 trillion. None of the IPO figures come from the filing.
How much could Anthropic raise in its IPO?
The WSJ has reported a raise of up to $100 billion, which would exceed the $86 billion SpaceX raised in June. That figure is not in the filing, and a smaller offering is reportedly under discussion.
Is Anthropic profitable?
Not on the latest numbers. Q3 2026 showed an operating loss of $567 million after a $974 million operating profit in Q2, and a reported net loss of $23.29 billion. Most of the first-half net loss of $80.7 billion was a non-cash fair value change.
What is Anthropic's revenue?
Revenue was $4.6 billion in 2025 (audited), $16.3 billion in the first half of 2026 (unaudited) and nearly $17 billion in Q3 2026 alone, up 47% on the second quarter.
Can Singapore investors invest in the Anthropic IPO?
Once ANT lists, yes, through a broker with US market access. Retail allocations in the offering itself depend on the broker, so check with yours early. Our broker comparison guide covers the main platforms.
Can I use CPF to invest in Anthropic?
I would not expect so. CPFIS-OA covers a defined list of approved products, and I would not assume a Nasdaq-listed share is on it. Check the CPF Board's CPFIS lists before planning around it.
Can I use SRS to invest in Anthropic?
It depends on your SRS operator and broker. Some allow SRS funds into US-listed shares and others restrict SRS to SGX instruments, so confirm with them directly. Our SRS investing guide walks through the options.
What does Anthropic actually do?
Anthropic develops the Claude family of AI models, offered to businesses and developers and through consumer apps. Its revenue comes from that usage, while its largest costs are the computing capacity needed to train and run the models.
The Bottom Line
What this filing genuinely gives investors is a rare look at the audited numbers of a frontier AI lab. Revenue went from $4.6 billion in 2025 to nearly $17 billion in a single quarter, and the company holds $146.6 billion of cash and liquid assets going into the offering.
The open question is whether growth that has already slowed to 47% sequentially can carry $895.4 billion of commitments and a valuation that investors themselves are now questioning. Reasonable people land on both sides of that, and the market consensus is not settled.
What I would watch next is the amended S-1/A with the share count and price range, which has to come before the roadshow can get going. Read the use of proceeds and the pricing before the commentary, and revisit this post once the terms are filed.
