Anthropic completes the tender offer, employees reduce share sales due to optimistic expectations

By: rootdata|2026/04/09 11:42:01

According to Bloomberg, informed sources revealed that Anthropic employees have sold a portion of their equity to investors, completing a secondary equity sale that began earlier this year. However, due to the limited number of shares employees were willing to sell, some investors were unable to acquire as many shares as planned. Informed sources stated that the offer price for this acquisition is the same as the company's most recent financing valuation from February of this year. According to its latest transaction, the company's valuation is $350 billion.

The total amount of the share sale has not been disclosed, but some individuals indicated that its scale is below the $6 billion raised by investors. Anthropic employees hope to retain more shares before the company's upcoming initial public offering (IPO), which is expected to take place as early as this year.

One individual stated that this lower-than-expected transaction indicates that employees are optimistic about the company's prospects as its annual revenue rises. Last month, the company's annual revenue exceeded $19 billion. By April, Anthropic announced that its annual run rate revenue had surpassed $30 billion.
