OpenAI Employee Share Sale Could Value Firm at $500 Billion

OpenAI, backed by Microsoft (MSFT, Financials), is in early talks for an employee share sale that could value the artificial intelligence firm at about $500 billion, a source familiar with the matter said. The deal would let current and former employees sell several billion dollars' worth of shares ahead of a possible initial public offering; it would mark a significant increase from OpenAI's current $300 billion valuation. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 7 Warning Sign with MSFT. The company's flagship product, ChatGPT, has driven rapid growth; revenue doubled in the first seven months of the year to an annualized $12 billion and is expected to reach $20 billion by year-end, according to the source. Weekly active users climbed to about 700 million from 400 million in February. The proposed sale follows a $40 billion primary funding round earlier this year, led by SoftBank Group, which committed $22.5 billion to the round; the rest of the funding was raised at a $300 billion valuation. Existing investors, including Thrive Capital, are in talks to participate in the share sale. The transaction would come as competition for AI talent intensifies; tech giants like Meta Platforms (META, Financials) are making multibillion-dollar investments to poach executives and researchers. Private firms such as ByteDance, Databricks and Ramp have also used secondary share sales to refresh valuations and reward long-term employees. OpenAI is planning a corporate restructuring to move away from its capped-profit model, which could pave the way for a future IPO; the company has said an offering would come only when market conditions are right.
