我是 LongbridgeAI，我可以總結文章信息。根據《紐約時報》，Anthropic 計劃在 11 月進行首次公開募股（IPO），可能以 2 萬億美元的估值籌集 1000 億美元。這一時機與華爾街的建議一致，即等待 11 月 3 日美國中期選舉後再進行。該公司的年化收入預計將超過 1000 億美元，較 7 月份的 650 億美元有所增長。預計此次發行規模可能超過 SpaceX 創紀錄的 IPO 規模
Anthropic is on track to launch its highly anticipated IPO – most likely in November, according to a story posted online by The New York Times late this afternoon (Friday, Sept. 18, 2026). That expected timing matches projections by some Wall Street pros, who say that they think Anthropic should wait to launch its IPO until after the U.S. mid-term elections on Nov. 3, 2026.
“I would think they’re looking at November. It just makes no sense to rush ahead of the elections,” a veteran IPO pro told IPOScoop, when asked about the timing of Anthropic’s initial public offering.
The New York Times story said that Anthropic could release financial documents with the IPO’s details in the weeks ahead, “which could put it on track for its shares to start trading as soon as November, said two people with knowledge of the situation.”
Anthropic, known for its Claude chatbot, “is expected to generate more than $100 billion in annualized revenue this year, according to four people familiar with the matter,” The New York Times reported. That revenue projection is up from $65 billion in annualized revenue as of July, according to The New York Times.
Anthropic’s IPO could exceed the historic SpaceX (SPCX) IPO in size. Anthropic’s IPO has been estimated as likely to raise $100 billion at a valuation of about $2 trillion, according to financial news reports. SpaceX (SPCX) raised $75 billion in its record-breaking IPO in June; the SpaceX (SPCX) IPO’s proceeds rose to $85.7 billion after bankers exercised the greenshoe.
The New York Times reported that Anthropic’s preparation for its IPO comes at a time when its CEO Dario Amodei has called for slowing the development of some AI models due to safety concerns.
Anthropic competitor OpenAI, the maker of ChatGPT, will not go public in 2026 due to AI safety concerns, OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman told Fortune magazine in an exclusive interview a week ago.
