OpenAI aims to raise at least $30 billion from investors at a valuation of around $1.4 trillion, led by investor demand amid strong revenue growth. The round is intended as a bridge to replace an IPO, which the company has postponed for 2026 to focus on AI safety. The reported revenue run rate topped $40 billion in August, up 70% since July. For a financial institution, this represents a large private capital raise that shifts the firm's funding structure away from public markets, with implications for its debt capacity and valuation benchmarks.
