IT Home reported on November 10 that, according to the latest draft prospectus released by Reuters this evening (the 10th), Anthropic plans to raise up to $64.4 billion through an initial public offering (IPO) and is preparing to launch its roadshow. (IT Home note: approximately 430.616 billion yuan at the current exchange rate.)
The draft prospectus shows that Anthropic also plans to raise $26 billion (approximately 173.851 billion yuan at the current exchange rate) from cornerstone investors including Google, Nvidia and AMD through a separate private placement. Including contributions from other cornerstone investors such as Broadcom, Micron, Microsoft and TSMC, Anthropic's share offering could raise as much as $90.4 billion (approximately 604.467 billion yuan at the current exchange rate).
Anthropic and some existing investors plan to sell shares in the IPO, with an initial price range of $70 to $78 per share (approximately 468.1 to 521.6 yuan at the current exchange rate). Details of the offering are expected to be announced soon.
On the 9th, local time, Reuters reported that Anthropic planned to raise up to $69.3 billion through an IPO (approximately 463.38 billion yuan at the current exchange rate). However, shortly after distributing copies of a securities filing stating that it planned to raise $69.3 billion through an IPO to banks, Anthropic withdrew the document and said its pricing details were inaccurate and that it would update the filing later.
