AI safety and research company; announcement of its first owned US data center build-out with Fluidstack

Anthropic said the sites, expected to create about 800 permanent and 2,400 construction jobs, would come online 'throughout 2026'; resolution turns on whether at least the first Texas or New York facility is operational by December 31, 2026.

“For 2026, Anthropic has set a base case of more than doubling to $20 billion in annualized revenue and a best case of as much as $26 billion.”

Internal company revenue targets reported by Reuters

Anthropic's annualized revenue reached roughly $47 billion by mid-May 2026 and about $65 billion by August 2026, far exceeding the target, but the year-end deadline has not yet passed.

“Anthropic expects to generate as much as $70 billion in revenue and $17 billion in cash flow in 2028, fueled by rapid adoption of its business products.”

Internal financial projections reported by The Information

Anthropic's run rate reached roughly $65 billion annualized by August 2026, well ahead of the pace implied by the 2028 projection.

“Anthropic expects to break even in 2028 — two years ahead of OpenAI — forecasting its cash burn will fall to roughly one-third of revenue in 2026 and to 9% of revenue by 2027.”

Internal company projections shared with investors, reported by The Wall Street Journal

Later reporting (April 2026) indicated Anthropic had pushed its profitability target to 2029, with 2026 expected to be its largest loss year.

“Anthropic is on track to meet its internal goal of $9 billion in annualized revenue run rate by the end of 2025.”

Anthropic exited 2025 at roughly $9 billion in annualized run-rate revenue, matching the internal goal; subsequent reporting in 2026 repeatedly cites the $9 billion year-end 2025 figure as the base for its growth.
