OpenAI reportedly considers delaying IPO until 2027

OpenAI is reportedly contemplating postponing its initial public offering (IPO) until 2027, a shift from its earlier target of late 2026. The artificial intelligence company had engaged investment bankers and lawyers to prepare for an IPO in the third or fourth quarter of 2026, with CEO Sam Altman instructing consultants to explore achieving a $1 trillion valuation. However, leadership is now reconsidering these plans. This potential delay is primarily influenced by a recent decline in SpaceX's share value, suggesting a cautious market sentiment for high-valuation tech companies.
