# Anthropic Reports $47B Annualized Revenue, Targets October IPO, Projects $1B Q3 Profit

> Anthropic has posted one of the steepest revenue ramps the software industry has seen. According to a SemiAnalysis report, the company's annualized revenue reached about 47 billion dollars by May 2026, up from roughly 9 billion at the end of 2025, growth of more than 400 percent in a matter of months. It now expects to turn a profit, with Q3 operating income projected above 1 billion dollars. That trajectory sits behind a confidential IPO filing made on June 1, targeting a Nasdaq debut in October led by Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley. Its most recent private round reportedly closed near a 965 billion dollar valuation, and the offering could raise more than 60 billion. The striking part is the profitability claim. Frontier AI has been synonymous with enormous losses, so an Anthropic that is both growing this fast and printing operating profit would reset expectations for what a leading lab's business can actually look like.
