Anthropic plans to sell up to ¥552.9 billion (approximately $3.5 billion) in shares to Japanese investors as part of its upcoming U.S. IPO, according to filings dated November 2. Proceeds from the new share issuance to Japanese investors will be used to supplement working capital and cover operating expenses and capital expenditures. The filing did not disclose the overall IPO size or valuation, though Reuters previously reported that some investors have discussed valuing the AI company at around $1.5 trillion. The allocation marks a notable international demand signal for one of the largest anticipated tech listings. Investors will be watching for the formal IPO prospectus detailing final deal size, pricing, and valuation.
