Anthropic has launched a share sale for current and former employees at a valuation of approximately $350 billion, according to a Bloomberg report on Monday, allowing staff to liquidate equity following a recent surge in the company’s value.
The transaction could total between $5 billion and $6 billion, with the final deal size contingent on the number of eligible employees participating and has not been finalized. This pre-money valuation aligns with figures from Anthropic’s latest fundraising round, which closed on February 12 with a post-money valuation of $380 billion.
The share sale follows Anthropic’s announcement of a $30 billion Series G funding round. The round was led by Singapore sovereign wealth fund GIC and Coatue Management, with participation from D.E. Shaw Ventures, Founders Fund, ICONIQ, and MGX. Microsoft and Nvidia joined as strategic investors, fulfilling plans announced last November to invest up to $5 billion and $10 billion, respectively. Investor demand exceeded expectations, causing the round to nearly triple from an initial $10 billion target. Since its founding in 2021, Anthropic has raised over $57 billion in total funding. The $380 billion post-money valuation represents more than a doubling from the $183 billion valuation set during the Series F round in September 2025.
Anthropic’s revenue has grown rapidly alongside its valuation. The company reported an annualized revenue run rate of $14 billion in early February. This figure is up from $1 billion in December 2024 and $9 billion at the end of 2025. Revenue from the coding tool Claude Code exceeded $2.5 billion in annualized run rate within six weeks, more than doubling in that period. The number of enterprise customers spending over $100,000 annually increased sevenfold over the past year.
Anthropic hired law firm Wilson Sonsini in late 2025 to prepare for a potential initial public offering as early as this year. The company also appointed Chris Liddell to its board of directors last week. Liddell previously served as CFO for both Microsoft and General Motors, where he guided GM’s $23 billion IPO in 2010. Anthropic is now part of a group of companies on a 2026 IPO watchlist, which includes OpenAI, reportedly targeting a valuation of up to $1 trillion, and SpaceX.
