Anthropic IPO led by Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, with JPMorgan also participating

According to Dongcha Beating monitoring, Anthropic has appointed Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs to lead its IPO, with JPMorgan also participating in the IPO.

On June 2nd, it was reported that the artificial intelligence giant Anthropic has secretly submitted the draft S-1 registration statement for its initial public offering (IPO) to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This IPO application follows Anthropic's just completed Series H funding round at the end of May 2026. In this monumental $65 billion funding round, Anthropic's post-money valuation has reached a staggering $965 billion, making it the world's highest-valued private AI startup, surpassing its competitor OpenAI. The lead investors in this round include Altimeter Capital, Dragoneer, Greenoaks, and Sequoia Capital, and it has attracted top global strategic and financial investors including Amazon, Google, and GIC.

As Anthropic prepares for its public market debut, early investors are also seeing significant returns. Bloomberg revealed that tech giant Salesforce's stake in Anthropic is now worth approximately $5 billion. Salesforce began investing in Anthropic in early 2023, with a total investment of around $500 million, and the exposure of this stake value directly caused a 10% single-day increase in Salesforce's stock price. Meanwhile, at the time of announcing the secret submission of the S-1, Anthropic's annualized revenue run rate had officially surpassed $47 billion, demonstrating a strong commercialization capability.
