[Anthropic Reports Q3 Revenue Rising to $16.8 Billion and Achieving Profitability] Golden Finance reported on October 15, citing the Financial Times, that Anthropic informed investors its third-quarter revenue had surged to $16.8 billion, with profitability achieved during the period. Amid growing skepticism about the AI industry boom, the AI company is striving to garner support for its high-profile IPO plans. Anthropic told investors that, on an adjusted basis, the company has achieved profitability, with quarterly revenue increasing nearly 50% from $11.5 billion in the second quarter. Chips and data centers, essential for AI labs to train and run models, remain the company's largest expenses. Anthropic also added that it achieved positive cash flow during the quarter. It is widely anticipated that the IPO of this Claude model developer will become the highest-valued IPO in history.
