Citing Forklog, OpenAI is preparing for a $1 trillion IPO, potentially one of the largest in history, with plans to file with regulators in the second half of 2026. The company is in early discussions to raise $60 billion, though the amount could increase. Financial director Sarah Friar informed some employees of the 2027 listing plan, though some advisors believe the IPO could happen as early as late 2026. OpenAI recently completed a restructuring, splitting into a commercial corporation and a nonprofit foundation. Microsoft holds 27% of the commercial entity, while investors and partners own 47%. The IPO is expected to help fund CEO Sam Altman’s trillion-dollar AI infrastructure plans. Current valuation is estimated at $500 billion, and the company faces rising losses despite an expected $20 billion annual revenue.
