⚡IPO Brief⚡ Anthropic has reportedly selected Nasdaq as the listing venue for a potential initial public offering that could come as soon as October, Bloomberg reported on September 13, citing people familiar with the preparations. This describes a possible IPO, not a completed transaction. Anthropic has not formally announced the Nasdaq selection or a final listing date, and the timing remains subject to change. Offering size, valuation, share count, and price have also not been finalized publicly. The company confirmed on June 1 that it had confidentially submitted a draft Form S-1 registration statement to the SEC. A confidential S-1 is an IPO prospectus submitted for regulatory review before a company publicly discloses the full filing. Anthropic said at the time that the offering would depend on SEC review and market conditions. The latest development marks reported progress in the IPO process, while the core transaction terms and launch timetable remain unresolved. Source: Bloomberg / Anthropic, 2026-09-13
