The Anthropic IPO is officially on the calendar. Anthropic, PBC filed its Form S-1 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on October 26, 2026 to list its Class A shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the ticker ANT, with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley leading a 22-bank syndicate. According to the S-1, revenue reached $16.29 billion in the first half of 2026, up from $1.16 billion a year earlier, and the company booked an $80.7 billion net loss over the same six months.
The filing leaves the price range, share count, raise size and valuation blank. The Run-Rate Revenue figure on page 195 is blank too. Everything you read about a valuation today comes from press reports, and we label it that way below.
Here is the full S-1 on SEC EDGAR.
Revenue in the second quarter of 2026 alone was $11.56 billion, according to the S-1 (p. 158). Anthropic brought in more revenue in those 91 days than in its entire history up to the end of 2025 ($5.0 billion across 2023, 2024 and 2025, our sum from p. 23).
That is the headline. The real story sits in four places: the quarterly revenue curve, the loss bridge, the compute contracts and the control structure.
