Cerebras Systems, an AI chip startup, has filed for an initial public offering after raising $2.1 billion in funding rounds last year. The company generated $510 million revenue in 2025 with $237.8 million net income.
Cerebras Systems, led by CEO Andrew Feldman, has filed to go public after previously withdrawing its 2024 IPO filing due to federal review of G42 investment. The company raised $1.1 billion Series G followed by $1 billion Series H in February at $23 billion valuation. Cerebras announced partnerships with Amazon Web Services for data center chip deployment and a deal with OpenAI reportedly worth over $10 billion. The company reported $510 million revenue in 2025 with $237.8 million net income, though showed non-GAAP net loss of $75.7 million excluding one-time items. Feldman claimed the company took OpenAI's fast inference business from Nvidia. The IPO is planned for mid-May with undisclosed fundraising target.
