November 11 news: After launching its IPO roadshow, Anthropic has added the Japanese market to its financing plan, seeking to raise $3 billion to $3.5 billion from Japanese investors. According to a document submitted to Japan's Ministry of Finance, the company plans to sell 38.5 million to 50 million shares to Japanese investors at a reference price of $70 to $78 per share. Earlier this month, Anthropic said its financing target was up to $3.5 billion and announced an IPO plan to sell shares worth up to $64.4 billion. Based on the number of outstanding shares listed in Tuesday's document, the company is valued at about $1 trillion; on a fully diluted basis, about $1.4 trillion. This offering in Japan is a "non-listed public offering" aimed at attracting Japan's cash-rich households and also helping Mizuho Financial Group enhance its market position as a coordinator of large transactions.
