Earlier this week, exactly one year after the prospectus became available, Cerebras <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2025\/09\/30\/ai-chip-company-cerebras-raises-1-billion-in-pre-ipo-funding-round.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">announced<\/a> that it had raised $1.2 billion at a $8.1 billion valuation. <\/p>\n<p>At the time, Andrew Feldman, Cerebras&#8217; co-founder and CEO, said in an interview that the company still wanted to go public, rather than continue to raise venture capital and stay private. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t think this is an indication of a preference for one or the other,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I think we have tremendous opportunities in front of us, and I think it&#8217;s good practice, when you have enormous opportunities, not to let them fall by the wayside for lack of capital.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Cerebras still does want to go public as soon as possible, a spokesperson told CNBC on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Since filing for the IPO last year, Cerebras has shifted focus away from selling systems and more toward providing a cloud service for accepting incoming queries to models that use its chips underneath.<\/p>\n<p>Feldman thought the original prospectus from last year was out of date, especially considering developments in AI, the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n<p>The government shutdown did not factor into Cerebras&#8217; decision, the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n<p>This is breaking news.
