Anthropic (ANT) — the variant view

Anthropic lost $80.7 billion on paper and $693 million in reality, and the filing hides its best number - an 85% gross margin - in a supplemental note.

The two most important numbers in Anthropic's filing are both off the face of its financial statements, and they point in opposite directions.

Operating expenses by function, first half of 2026 ($M)9,741Research and development3,808Sales and marketing2,380Cost of revenue1,050General and administrativeAnthropic Form S-1, Note 8; total operating expenses $16,979M
Four dollars of development per dollar of serving.

The first is the loss. In the first half of 2026 the reported net loss was $80,748M on revenue of $16,286M1, while the operating loss over the same six months was $693M2. The $80,055M between them3 is almost entirely a change in the fair value of convertible notes, derivative liabilities and SAFEs of $72,388M, plus $8,757M of other expense4. Those are non-cash charges that grow as Anthropic grows more valuable, because they are marks on instruments that convert at the offering; convertible notes payable went from $41,677M at the end of 2025 to $108,566M at 30 June 20265. The accounting is correct and it records success as a cost. Anyone quoting the bottom line is quoting a figure about sixteen times the operating loss6.

The second is the gross margin, and almost nobody will find it. The income statement is presented by nature — compute, personnel, sales, administration — with no cost-of-revenue line on its face. But Note 8 regroups exactly the same spending by function and does include one: cost of revenue was $2,380M in the first half of 2026 against $1,019M a year earlier, with research and development of $9,741M7. The filing adds that "Substantially all of cost of revenue consists of compute and infrastructure costs associated with customer-serving workloads"8.

Set that against revenue and the business underneath the noise has turned. The implied gross margin was minus 94.8% in 2024, when serving a customer cost about twice what the customer paid, then 39.5% in 2025 and 85.4% in the first half of 20269. A company that was giving compute away two years ago now keeps about 85 cents in the dollar.

The rest of the functional split explains where the loss actually comes from. Research and development is 4.09 times cost of revenue10 — roughly four dollars spent building models for every dollar spent serving customers. That is a choice, and a reversible one, in a way that a negative gross margin is not.

What cannot be priced at all is the price. The S-1 is preliminary, the offering range and the proceeds are blank, and it states that "Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our Class A common stock."11 The $965 billion on these pages is the reported post-money valuation of the Series H round announced in May 202612, which is 49.0 times trailing revenue and 29.6 times first-half revenue annualised13. No source states how that figure was struck and it cannot be reproduced from the filing, so it is a reported private mark rather than a market capitalisation.

So the number that decides this company sits in a note rather than in a headline. If the implied gross margin holds above 80% while revenue compounds, the losses in these accounts are a financing artefact plus a research budget. If it slips back toward where it was in 2025, the fair-value line was never the problem.

    Moat Explorer calculation from the figures in Anthropic's Form S-1. Trailing twelve months to 30 June 2026, computed as FY2025 less H1 2025 plus H1 2026: revenue 4,585 - 1,163 + 16,286 = 19,708; net loss (41,965) - (12,969) + (80,748) = (109,744); operating loss (8,060) - (2,135) + (693) = (6,618); net loss per share (23.04) - (7.25) + (39.88) = (55.67); United States revenue 3,362 - 820 + 11,763 = 14,305 and International 1,223 - 343 + 4,523 = 5,403. Market value 3,041,435 thousand shares outstanding at 30 June 2026 (853,394 preferred + 2,157,398 Class A + 30,643 Class N) multiplied by the $589.0095 Series H-1 issue price = $1,791,434M. Multiples: 1,791,434 / 19,708 = 90.9 times trailing revenue; 1,791,434 / (16,286 x 2) = 55.0 times annualised first-half revenue; 1,791,434 / 4,585 = 390.7 times FY2025 revenue. Revenue growth 386 / 41 - 1 = +841% (2024), 4,585 / 386 - 1 = +1,088% (2025), 16,286 / 1,163 - 1 = +1,300% (H1 2026 against H1 2025). United States share of revenue 34 / 41 = 82.9% (2023), 263 / 386 = 68.1% (2024), 3,362 / 4,585 = 73.3% (2025), 11,763 / 16,286 = 72.2% (H1 2026), 14,305 / 19,708 = 72.6% (trailing twelve months). H1 2026 non-operating charge (80,748) - (693) = (80,055). First-half operating expenses against revenue: compute 8,945 / 16,286 = 55%, personnel 3,152 / 16,286 = 19%, sales and marketing 3,168 / 16,286 = 19%. Cash and short-term investments plus undrawn committed notes 131,651 + 77,000 = 208,651. The Bartz settlement against 2025 revenue 1,500 / 4,585 = 32.7%. Compute and infrastructure spend 2023-H1 2026 433 + 2,522 + 7,326 + 8,945 = 19,226 against cumulative revenue 41 + 386 + 4,585 + 16,286 = 21,298. From the Note 8 functional expense table, implied gross margin (revenue less cost of revenue, over revenue): (41 - 26) / 41 = 36.6% in 2023, (386 - 752) / 386 = -94.8% in 2024, (4,585 - 2,773) / 4,585 = 39.5% in 2025, (1,163 - 1,019) / 1,163 = 12.4% in H1 2025 and (16,286 - 2,380) / 16,286 = 85.4% in H1 2026; research and development over cost of revenue 9,741 / 2,380 = 4.09 times. Compute commitments at 30 June 2026: non-cancelable purchase commitments of 265.6 plus leases not yet commenced of 321.4 = 587.0 billion dollars, against 54.559 + 50.2 = 104.8 billion at 31 December 2025, a rise of 5.6 times in six months; 587.0 / 19.708 = 29.8 times trailing revenue and 587.0 / 131.651 = 4.5 times cash and short-term investments. The named counterparty commitments 161.2 + 120.5 + 114.5 + 110.0 + 44.6 + 44.9 + 20.0 = 615.7 billion. Valuation: the reported 965 billion dollar Series H post-money over trailing revenue 965.0 / 19.708 = 49.0 times, and over annualised first-half revenue 965.0 / 32.572 = 29.6 times. Share counts at 30 June 2026 multiplied by the Series H-1 issue price, 3,041,435 thousand x 589.0095 = 1,791,434 thousand dollars, which does not reproduce the reported figure. Headcount about 940 to about 5,300 is a rise of about 5.6 times while revenue rose about 1,200% over the same period. Commitments against the contracted book: 587,000 / 10,800 = 54.4 times. Net loss against operating loss over the trailing twelve months: 109,744 / 6,618 = 16.6 times. The three commitments owed to companies that also sell models against Anthropic, Google plus Amazon plus Microsoft, 114,500 + 110,000 + 44,900 = 269,400, which is about 44% of the 615,700 named and therefore not most of it. Cash plus undrawn committed notes against total commitments, 208,651 / 587,000 = 36%, about a third. International share of revenue: 7 / 41 = 17.1% in 2023, 123 / 386 = 31.9% in 2024, 1,223 / 4,585 = 26.7% in 2025, 343 / 1,163 = 29.5% in H1 2025, 4,523 / 16,286 = 27.8% in H1 2026 and 5,403 / 19,708 = 27.4% over the trailing twelve months. Revenue from customers above $100,000 as a share of first-half revenue, 12,000 / 16,286 = 74%, and revenue per such customer 12,000 / 6,000 = $2.0m for the half against 870 / 600 = $1.45m a year earlier. — 2023 to H1 2026 · publ.

  6. Moat Explorer calcAnyone quoting the bottom line is quoting a figure about sixteen times the operating loss.
    Moat Explorer calculation from the figures in Anthropic's Form S-1. Trailing twelve months to 30 June 2026, computed as FY2025 less H1 2025 plus H1 2026: revenue 4,585 - 1,163 + 16,286 = 19,708; net loss (41,965) - (12,969) + (80,748) = (109,744); operating loss (8,060) - (2,135) + (693) = (6,618); net loss per share (23.04) - (7.25) + (39.88) = (55.67); United States revenue 3,362 - 820 + 11,763 = 14,305 and International 1,223 - 343 + 4,523 = 5,403. Market value 3,041,435 thousand shares outstanding at 30 June 2026 (853,394 preferred + 2,157,398 Class A + 30,643 Class N) multiplied by the $589.0095 Series H-1 issue price = $1,791,434M. Multiples: 1,791,434 / 19,708 = 90.9 times trailing revenue; 1,791,434 / (16,286 x 2) = 55.0 times annualised first-half revenue; 1,791,434 / 4,585 = 390.7 times FY2025 revenue. Revenue growth 386 / 41 - 1 = +841% (2024), 4,585 / 386 - 1 = +1,088% (2025), 16,286 / 1,163 - 1 = +1,300% (H1 2026 against H1 2025). United States share of revenue 34 / 41 = 82.9% (2023), 263 / 386 = 68.1% (2024), 3,362 / 4,585 = 73.3% (2025), 11,763 / 16,286 = 72.2% (H1 2026), 14,305 / 19,708 = 72.6% (trailing twelve months). H1 2026 non-operating charge (80,748) - (693) = (80,055). First-half operating expenses against revenue: compute 8,945 / 16,286 = 55%, personnel 3,152 / 16,286 = 19%, sales and marketing 3,168 / 16,286 = 19%. Cash and short-term investments plus undrawn committed notes 131,651 + 77,000 = 208,651. The Bartz settlement against 2025 revenue 1,500 / 4,585 = 32.7%. Compute and infrastructure spend 2023-H1 2026 433 + 2,522 + 7,326 + 8,945 = 19,226 against cumulative revenue 41 + 386 + 4,585 + 16,286 = 21,298. From the Note 8 functional expense table, implied gross margin (revenue less cost of revenue, over revenue): (41 - 26) / 41 = 36.6% in 2023, (386 - 752) / 386 = -94.8% in 2024, (4,585 - 2,773) / 4,585 = 39.5% in 2025, (1,163 - 1,019) / 1,163 = 12.4% in H1 2025 and (16,286 - 2,380) / 16,286 = 85.4% in H1 2026; research and development over cost of revenue 9,741 / 2,380 = 4.09 times. Compute commitments at 30 June 2026: non-cancelable purchase commitments of 265.6 plus leases not yet commenced of 321.4 = 587.0 billion dollars, against 54.559 + 50.2 = 104.8 billion at 31 December 2025, a rise of 5.6 times in six months; 587.0 / 19.708 = 29.8 times trailing revenue and 587.0 / 131.651 = 4.5 times cash and short-term investments. The named counterparty commitments 161.2 + 120.5 + 114.5 + 110.0 + 44.6 + 44.9 + 20.0 = 615.7 billion. Valuation: the reported 965 billion dollar Series H post-money over trailing revenue 965.0 / 19.708 = 49.0 times, and over annualised first-half revenue 965.0 / 32.572 = 29.6 times. Share counts at 30 June 2026 multiplied by the Series H-1 issue price, 3,041,435 thousand x 589.0095 = 1,791,434 thousand dollars, which does not reproduce the reported figure. Headcount about 940 to about 5,300 is a rise of about 5.6 times while revenue rose about 1,200% over the same period. Commitments against the contracted book: 587,000 / 10,800 = 54.4 times. Net loss against operating loss over the trailing twelve months: 109,744 / 6,618 = 16.6 times. The three commitments owed to companies that also sell models against Anthropic, Google plus Amazon plus Microsoft, 114,500 + 110,000 + 44,900 = 269,400, which is about 44% of the 615,700 named and therefore not most of it. Cash plus undrawn committed notes against total commitments, 208,651 / 587,000 = 36%, about a third. International share of revenue: 7 / 41 = 17.1% in 2023, 123 / 386 = 31.9% in 2024, 1,223 / 4,585 = 26.7% in 2025, 343 / 1,163 = 29.5% in H1 2025, 4,523 / 16,286 = 27.8% in H1 2026 and 5,403 / 19,708 = 27.4% over the trailing twelve months. Revenue from customers above $100,000 as a share of first-half revenue, 12,000 / 16,286 = 74%, and revenue per such customer 12,000 / 6,000 = $2.0m for the half against 870 / 600 = $1.45m a year earlier. — 2023 to H1 2026 · publ.

    Moat Explorer calculation from the figures in Anthropic's Form S-1. Trailing twelve months to 30 June 2026, computed as FY2025 less H1 2025 plus H1 2026: revenue 4,585 - 1,163 + 16,286 = 19,708; net loss (41,965) - (12,969) + (80,748) = (109,744); operating loss (8,060) - (2,135) + (693) = (6,618); net loss per share (23.04) - (7.25) + (39.88) = (55.67); United States revenue 3,362 - 820 + 11,763 = 14,305 and International 1,223 - 343 + 4,523 = 5,403. Market value 3,041,435 thousand shares outstanding at 30 June 2026 (853,394 preferred + 2,157,398 Class A + 30,643 Class N) multiplied by the $589.0095 Series H-1 issue price = $1,791,434M. Multiples: 1,791,434 / 19,708 = 90.9 times trailing revenue; 1,791,434 / (16,286 x 2) = 55.0 times annualised first-half revenue; 1,791,434 / 4,585 = 390.7 times FY2025 revenue. Revenue growth 386 / 41 - 1 = +841% (2024), 4,585 / 386 - 1 = +1,088% (2025), 16,286 / 1,163 - 1 = +1,300% (H1 2026 against H1 2025). United States share of revenue 34 / 41 = 82.9% (2023), 263 / 386 = 68.1% (2024), 3,362 / 4,585 = 73.3% (2025), 11,763 / 16,286 = 72.2% (H1 2026), 14,305 / 19,708 = 72.6% (trailing twelve months). H1 2026 non-operating charge (80,748) - (693) = (80,055). First-half operating expenses against revenue: compute 8,945 / 16,286 = 55%, personnel 3,152 / 16,286 = 19%, sales and marketing 3,168 / 16,286 = 19%. Cash and short-term investments plus undrawn committed notes 131,651 + 77,000 = 208,651. The Bartz settlement against 2025 revenue 1,500 / 4,585 = 32.7%. Compute and infrastructure spend 2023-H1 2026 433 + 2,522 + 7,326 + 8,945 = 19,226 against cumulative revenue 41 + 386 + 4,585 + 16,286 = 21,298. From the Note 8 functional expense table, implied gross margin (revenue less cost of revenue, over revenue): (41 - 26) / 41 = 36.6% in 2023, (386 - 752) / 386 = -94.8% in 2024, (4,585 - 2,773) / 4,585 = 39.5% in 2025, (1,163 - 1,019) / 1,163 = 12.4% in H1 2025 and (16,286 - 2,380) / 16,286 = 85.4% in H1 2026; research and development over cost of revenue 9,741 / 2,380 = 4.09 times. Compute commitments at 30 June 2026: non-cancelable purchase commitments of 265.6 plus leases not yet commenced of 321.4 = 587.0 billion dollars, against 54.559 + 50.2 = 104.8 billion at 31 December 2025, a rise of 5.6 times in six months; 587.0 / 19.708 = 29.8 times trailing revenue and 587.0 / 131.651 = 4.5 times cash and short-term investments. The named counterparty commitments 161.2 + 120.5 + 114.5 + 110.0 + 44.6 + 44.9 + 20.0 = 615.7 billion.

    Moat Explorer calculation from the figures in Anthropic's Form S-1. Trailing twelve months to 30 June 2026, computed as FY2025 less H1 2025 plus H1 2026: revenue 4,585 - 1,163 + 16,286 = 19,708; net loss (41,965) - (12,969) + (80,748) = (109,744); operating loss (8,060) - (2,135) + (693) = (6,618); net loss per share (23.04) - (7.25) + (39.88) = (55.67); United States revenue 3,362 - 820 + 11,763 = 14,305 and International 1,223 - 343 + 4,523 = 5,403. Market value 3,041,435 thousand shares outstanding at 30 June 2026 (853,394 preferred + 2,157,398 Class A + 30,643 Class N) multiplied by the $589.0095 Series H-1 issue price = $1,791,434M. Multiples: 1,791,434 / 19,708 = 90.9 times trailing revenue; 1,791,434 / (16,286 x 2) = 55.0 times annualised first-half revenue; 1,791,434 / 4,585 = 390.7 times FY2025 revenue. Revenue growth 386 / 41 - 1 = +841% (2024), 4,585 / 386 - 1 = +1,088% (2025), 16,286 / 1,163 - 1 = +1,300% (H1 2026 against H1 2025). United States share of revenue 34 / 41 = 82.9% (2023), 263 / 386 = 68.1% (2024), 3,362 / 4,585 = 73.3% (2025), 11,763 / 16,286 = 72.2% (H1 2026), 14,305 / 19,708 = 72.6% (trailing twelve months). H1 2026 non-operating charge (80,748) - (693) = (80,055). First-half operating expenses against revenue: compute 8,945 / 16,286 = 55%, personnel 3,152 / 16,286 = 19%, sales and marketing 3,168 / 16,286 = 19%. Cash and short-term investments plus undrawn committed notes 131,651 + 77,000 = 208,651. The Bartz settlement against 2025 revenue 1,500 / 4,585 = 32.7%. Compute and infrastructure spend 2023-H1 2026 433 + 2,522 + 7,326 + 8,945 = 19,226 against cumulative revenue 41 + 386 + 4,585 + 16,286 = 21,298. From the Note 8 functional expense table, implied gross margin (revenue less cost of revenue, over revenue): (41 - 26) / 41 = 36.6% in 2023, (386 - 752) / 386 = -94.8% in 2024, (4,585 - 2,773) / 4,585 = 39.5% in 2025, (1,163 - 1,019) / 1,163 = 12.4% in H1 2025 and (16,286 - 2,380) / 16,286 = 85.4% in H1 2026; research and development over cost of revenue 9,741 / 2,380 = 4.09 times. Compute commitments at 30 June 2026: non-cancelable purchase commitments of 265.6 plus leases not yet commenced of 321.4 = 587.0 billion dollars, against 54.559 + 50.2 = 104.8 billion at 31 December 2025, a rise of 5.6 times in six months; 587.0 / 19.708 = 29.8 times trailing revenue and 587.0 / 131.651 = 4.5 times cash and short-term investments. The named counterparty commitments 161.2 + 120.5 + 114.5 + 110.0 + 44.6 + 44.9 + 20.0 = 615.7 billion. Valuation: the reported 965 billion dollar Series H post-money over trailing revenue 965.0 / 19.708 = 49.0 times, and over annualised first-half revenue 965.0 / 32.572 = 29.6 times.
