“Demand for Antropic IPO is 6 times the offering volume”... Expected to be the largest listing ever

As investment demand for the initial public offering (IPO) of Antropic, the developer of the artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot 'Claude', is pouring in, approximately six times the amount of the public offering, expectations are growing for the largest listing ever.

Citing multiple sources, Bloomberg News reported on the 12th (local time) that purchase intentions for Antropic's IPO amounting to about six times the number of shares scheduled to be sold.

Investment banks are known to have explained to potential investors that due to the large influx of investment demand, some investors may be allocated a smaller amount than initially expected.

Antropic plans to raise up to $64.4 billion through this IPO and secure an additional $26 billion through a separate private placement.

The amount of financing through the two transactions is expected to be up to $90.4 billion (about 121 trillion won), exceeding the size of SpaceX's IPO. If everything goes as planned, it will be the largest listing in history.

Antropic's target corporate value is approximately $1.4 trillion based on full dilution. The full dilution standard is a method of calculating corporate value by reflecting stocks that may be issued in the future, such as stock options.

Antropic plans to confirm its public offering price on the 18th and begin trading on Nasdaq on the 19th.
