Anthropic officially files for its public debut
news
2 min read
Anthropic filed for an initial public offering on Monday and plans to list its shares under the ticker symbol “ANT.” Its SEC filing reported $16.3 billion in revenue for the first half of 2026, compared with $1.2 billion during the same period in 2025. Operating losses narrowed to $693 million from $2.1 billion a year earlier, while net loss reached $80.7 billion, largely because of noncash accounting adjustments related to convertible debt. Anthropic said it may not achieve or sustain profitability. Anthropic reported more than 11,900 customers spending at least $100,000 annually as of the end of September, including 1,900 spending at least $1 million and about 250 spending at least $10 million. The company has not disclosed its target fundraising amount or proposed share price. Seven co-founders will form a Founder LLC holding 50.1% of shareholder voting power after the listing: Dario Amodei, Daniela Amodei, Tom Brown, Jack Clark, Jared Kaplan, Sam McCandlish, and Christopher Olah. Anthropic says the arrangement is intended to preserve its AI safety mission. Its Long-Term Benefit Trust, created in 2023 to support its public-benefit mission, will be able to appoint most board members. Anthropic’s filing acknowledges that its technology may pose catastrophic or existential risks to humanity.

Anthropic tells staff to work from home due to possible security team strike
news
2 min read
Anthropic instructed employees at its San Francisco offices to work from home on Monday and Tuesday after receiving notice that security staff supplied by Allied Universal might strike, according to a person familiar with the matter. Anthropic declined to comment on the remote-work directive, and Allied Universal did not respond to requests for comment. Anthropic generally requires employees to work in an office at least 25% of the time under its hybrid policy, according to its job postings. The Service Employees International Union, which represents Allied Universal workers, said it had not called a strike-authorization vote or threatened a strike for that week. SEIU said it remains in prolonged negotiations with Allied Universal and other California security companies. The union, which represents thousands of California security workers, has sought a new contract since April and is pursuing higher pay, improved healthcare, and more comprehensive job training. Security spending has increased across the technology industry in recent years, while Anthropic and OpenAI have faced several threats against employees, The Wall Street Journal reported. Anthropic filed a confidential S-1 draft in June and is expected to file for an initial public offering as early as August.
