Anthropic files for what could be history's biggest stock listing while warning AI could pose 'existential risks' to humanity
Anthropic's quarterly revenue hit $16.8bn in Q3 2026, up 45% on the previous quarter, as the company filed a 335-page prospectus to list its shares.Dario Amodei leads Anthropic, which filed to float on the US stock market on Monday at a valuation exceeding $1.5tn.
Anthropic lost $80.7bn in the first half of 2026, more than six times the $13bn it lost a year earlier. Revenue soared to $16.3bn, up from $1.2bn, though 23 per cent came from two unnamed customers. The Claude maker is heading to Nasdaq with the ticker ANT, possibly as soon as November. Markets expect the sale could raise $100bn at a valuation of around $2 trillion.
A hacking group believed to be backed by China 'manipulated' Claude to breach institutions.
The filing admits its AI models have shown 'unexpected strategic or self-preserving behaviors'.
