# Anthropic heads for a second straight profitable quarter

14 Sep 2026 1 min read News · Funding

Anthropic told investors its adjusted operating income will be positive for a second straight quarter. Second-quarter revenue was $11.5 billion.

## The numbers

According to the Financial Times, Anthropic brought in $11.5 billion in second-quarter revenue, 14 times the same quarter a year earlier. Annualised revenue reached $65 billion at the end of July, up from $9 billion at the end of 2025.

**80%+** Gross margin, before revenue shared with partners such as Amazon and before model training costs

Investors expect annualised revenue to reach $120 billion by year end and nearly triple that by the end of 2027.

## The fine print on adjusted profit

The profit is adjusted, and that matters. The measure excludes stock-based compensation, and the gross margin above 80% leaves out partner revenue sharing and training costs. This is not a net profit figure after every cost.

## IPO on the horizon

The company is targeting an October listing on Nasdaq, after filing a confidential S-1 with the SEC in June. Valuations of up to $2 trillion have been discussed, and Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley are leading the offering.
