OpenAI’s path to an IPO continues to center on achieving a closing market capitalization near or above $1 trillion, with the company’s most recent private valuation reaching $852 billion in March 2026 after raising $122 billion. As of mid-August 2026, CFO Sarah Friar indicated to employees that a public listing is targeted for 2027 or potentially sooner if revenue growth persists, following the confidential S-1 filing in June. The firm generates approximately $2 billion in monthly revenue—driven increasingly by enterprise API usage now exceeding 40 percent of total—with growth outpacing historical benchmarks at comparable tech firms, though it remains unprofitable amid heavy infrastructure spending. Key variables for any closing valuation include broader equity market conditions, AI sector sentiment, successful execution on scaling, and potential shifts in monetary policy or risk appetite that could influence pricing multiples at debut.

Market capitalization is defined as the total number of outstanding shares multiplied by the closing share price on the first trading day.
Resolution will be based on the primary exchange’s official listing page. In the event that the relevant figure is not displayed, another reliable source will be used.
In the event of an interruption in the course of the normal trading session on OpenAI's first day of trading (e.g., a circuit breaker or half-day), the market will resolve according to the official closing price of the abbreviated session. If no such official closing price is published, the market will resolve according to the next trading day on which an official closing price is published, treating that as the first day of trading.
