Anthropic’s $700 billion in obligations may complicate its path to an investment-grade rating after an IPO, separate from the BB+ grade tied to its chip financing. In June, Kroll Bond Rating Agency (KBRA) gave Anthropic a BB+ issuer rating, one notch below investment grade. The June BB+ issuer rating was tied to a $35 billion chip-financing package that included about $4.4 billion in subordinated debt. That subordinated borrowing carried a yield of about 8.5%; the package’s senior debt had a 5.75% rate. Anthropic’s IPO papers list ANT as its proposed ticker.
