U.S. law prohibits Anthropic, which has applied for an IPO, from publicly discussing its financial results during the “silent period,” but information about its developments is still leaked to the media. According to Bloomberg, Anthropic’s revenue reached US$11.5 billion in the second quarter, an increase of more than 14 times year-on-year.

source ReportAnthropic’s revenue did not exceed $787 million a year ago, and was limited to $4.73 billion in the first quarter of this year. In other words, it’s growing at an impressive rate. As mentioned earlier, Anthropic’s extrapolated projected annual revenue as of May reached $47 billion, suggesting the startup outperforms its main competitor OpenAI ($40 billion) in this metric.
Additionally, as Bloomberg noted, Anthropic posted an adjusted operating profit in the second quarter. For multi-billion dollar businesses, this is important for the sustainability of the revenue model. Anthropic is preparing to go public in September or October to beat not only OpenAI but also DeepSeek, although they are unlikely to compete with the latter for investor capital due to disunity in U.S. and Chinese stock markets. Bloomberg estimates that excluding special purpose listed companies, IPO turnover this year may reach $256.4 billion, the highest level since 2021.
