Anthropic's October IPO Could Target Up to $3 Trillion Valuation, Investors Say
ChuckDBrooks · x · 2026-08-13
Investors anticipate that Anthropic may launch its highly awaited IPO as early as October. Driven by an explosive 800% annual revenue growth, backers project the company's annualized revenue could hit $100-$120 billion by the end of 2026, potentially supporting a valuation north of $2 trillion and setting a new historical IPO record.
According to the Financial Times, these massive projections stem from investor financial models rather than official company targets. Applying a conservative 30x revenue multiple suggests a potential $3 trillion valuation. For context, Anthropic was valued at $96.5 billion during its May funding round, when it reported an annualized revenue exceeding $47 billion.
