AI chipmaker Cerebras files to go public after scrapping IPO plans last year

The AI chipmaker shifted to cloud-based computing from its own data centers and said OpenAI’s expanded deal could exceed $20 billion.

  • On Friday, Sunnyvale-based AI chipmaker Cerebras Systems filed for a U.S. initial public offering, aiming to list on the Nasdaq under ticker symbol "CBRS," according to people familiar with the matter.
  • Cerebras previously withdrew its IPO paperwork last year to add financial details, while shifting from selling chips to offering cloud AI services and raising over $1 billion in a funding round valued at $8 billion last September.
  • OpenAI has expanded its computing partnership with Cerebras in an agreement valued at over $20 billion, providing up to 750 megawatts of computing power through 2028 with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman listed as an investor.
  • Morgan Stanley, Citigroup, Barclays, and UBS are leading the offering as retail investors pursue tech IPOs following a market drought since 2022, with the IPO market regaining momentum after recent volatility.
  • CEO Andrew Feldman, who previously sold startup SeaMicro for $355 million in 2012, leads Cerebras as analysts expect generative AI companies to spearhead tech sector listings amid broader industry growth.
