Anthropic IPO could draw record retail buying, Vanda Research says
Vanda Research said Anthropic’s debut could draw about $250 million in net retail buying, more than twice SpaceX’s record, based on pre-IPO futures trading.
- On Tuesday, Anthropic launched its IPO roadshow, aiming for a fully diluted valuation of roughly $1.4 trillion. The company plans to sell approximately 801.4 million shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under ticker ANT.
- Anthropic's IPO is oversubscribed multiple times, reflecting massive investor demand that positions the offering to set a new record for a stock market debut. The demand stemmed from large, anchor-style expressions of interest from institutional investors.
- Seven major technology companies, including Google and Nvidia, have committed to purchasing $26 billion worth of nonvoting Class N shares in a private placement. Their shares will be priced at the final IPO price, according to company filings.
- Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley are leading the IPO alongside 20 additional banks, managing what could become the largest first-time share sale ever. On Friday, Chief Executive Officer Dario Amodei will join JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon for a live-streamed investor event.
- The $1.4 trillion valuation target is lower than the roughly $1.5 trillion investors expected a week ago, after AI stocks sold off last Thursday. Earlier discussions had centered on figures near $2 trillion several months back, according to reports.
