  Reuters  reported first in September that Anthropic posted a net loss of $42 billion in 2025  and plans to spend $518 billion on cloud, computing  and  infrastructure obligations in coming years.

Why leave out the time scales? 16.8B revenue for Q3 of 2026 and planning to spend 518B over 10 years (which would average to 13B quarterly)

Its revenue grew 12-fold year to year, and 50% just last quarter. Last quarter it reached profitability if you exclude convertibles etc. And if you won’t it is still well on track to be profitable this/next year.

It is actually faring much better than other tech startups ipo’ing over the last 20 years.
