- Its adjusted operating margin improved but remained negative.
- Anthropic reported a higher annual run rate, using a different calculation.

## Summary

OpenAI’s quarterly revenue reportedly exceeded $10 billion for the first time, driven by demand for its newer AI models. If confirmed, the figure would signal a sharp acceleration in growth and an improved operating margin, as the company seeks to strengthen its position in the enterprise market.

Bloomberg, citing anonymous sources, reported revenue rose from $6.7 billion in the second quarter, while adjusted operating margin improved from minus 150% to minus 109%. OpenAI’s annual revenue run rate is reportedly $50 billion. Anthropic reported an $81 billion run rate at the end of October, though the companies calculate these figures differently; both face competition from major technology firms and lower-cost AI models.
