## Key points

- Anthropic’s IPO and placement could raise up to $90.4 billion.
- The proposed top price implies a valuation of about $1 trillion.
- Six major technology companies committed $26 billion to the placement.

## Summary

Anthropic has set an IPO price range of $70 to $78 a share, seeking up to $64.4 billion in its public offering, alongside a $26 billion private placement. Together with shares sold by existing backers, the plans could raise as much as $90.4 billion and value the Claude maker at about $1 trillion, testing investor demand for AI companies after a sharp market sell-off.

The filing outlines a sale of about 801.4 million IPO shares, with backers offering a further 23.6 million. AMD, Broadcom, Alphabet, Microsoft, Nvidia and TSMC have committed to the private placement. The proposed valuation would exceed SpaceX’s $75 billion offering in June; meanwhile, Anthropic reported nearly $17 billion in third-quarter revenue, up from $1.4 billion a year earlier. The company had previously withdrawn incorrect pricing details from an earlier filing and said an updated one would follow.
