According to Bloomberg on June 3, Anthropic selected Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs to lead the IPO process, with JPMorgan Chase also participating in the deal.
However, the listing procedures and conditions have yet to be finalized. Bloomberg noted that discussions are ongoing, and additional banks may join or details may change. Anthropic, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan declined to comment on the matter.
On June 1, Anthropic submitted a draft confidential securities registration statement to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The company may pursue its IPO after the SEC review, taking market conditions into account. The number of shares to be offered and the pricing have not yet been determined.
The IPO could occur as early as October. Recently, Anthropic was valued at $96.5 billion (approximately 1.477 trillion won) during its latest funding round.
Anthropic operates the chatbot Claude and is considered a major player in the generative AI market, alongside OpenAI, with significant investments from Amazon and Google.
The company's actual financial structure and offering size are expected to be clarified after the public securities registration statement is filed.
