This market will resolve according to the total gross proceeds raised by OpenAI in its initial public offering (IPO) at the time of pricing. The amount raised is defined as the aggregate dollar value of shares sold at the final offering price at the time of IPO pricing, as disclosed in the final prospectus filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Shares sold pursuant to any overallotment option (greenshoe) will not be considered. Secondary sales of existing shares by current shareholders will be included only to the extent that they are part of the IPO offering at pricing and reflected in the total gross proceeds. Private secondary transactions conducted outside of the IPO will not be considered. If the total proceeds fall exactly on a boundary between two ranges, this market will resolve to the higher range. If OpenAI does not complete an IPO by December 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to the lowest bracket. The primary resolution source will be the final prospectus filed with the SEC; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.OpenAI’s IPO raise prospects reflect trader uncertainty around a 2027 debut—signaled by CFO Sarah Friar on August 20—or an earlier window if revenue growth persists, against a backdrop of ample private capital from the $122 billion March round at an $852 billion valuation. With annualized revenue now exceeding $40 billion and a confidential S-1 filed in June, consensus splits between modest primary proceeds under $50 billion and larger raises near $80–90 billion as the firm balances a $1 trillion target with market volatility and rival Anthropic’s filing. Recent $7 billion secondary tender activity further reduces near-term financing pressure, leaving implied probabilities sensitive to upcoming earnings inflection and broader tech IPO reception.
