OpenAI Targets Q4 2026 IPO With Valuation of Up to One Trillion Dollars

Artificial intelligence company OpenAI is preparing for an initial public offering as early as Q4 2026, with a current valuation of 852 billion dollars. Chief Financial Officer Sarah Friar said the company tested retail investor demand in its latest funding round and received a strong response.

OpenAI, the influential artificial intelligence company, is actively preparing for an initial public offering and plans to go public as early as the fourth quarter of 2026. The company has recently completed a new financing round of 12.2 billion US dollars, which has raised its latest valuation to an impressive 852 billion US dollars.

Chief Financial Officer Sarah Friar stated that during this latest funding round, the company tested the demand from retail investors and received an exceptionally strong response. She confirmed that when the company goes public, a certain allocation of shares will be reserved for retail investors.

OpenAI currently generates annualized revenue exceeding 20 billion US dollars, boasts 810 million monthly active users, and serves one million enterprise customers. However, the company projects losses of approximately 14 billion US dollars for 2026. Additionally, ongoing copyright litigation could potentially impact the company's IPO timeline, presenting a significant challenge as OpenAI moves toward public markets.
