GoKawiilAnduril employee tender offer values defense startup at $90 billion
Anduril is letting employees sell shares through a tender offer priced at $94.80 each, implying a roughly $90 billion valuation, CNBC confirmed after an initial Bloomberg report. The offer opened October 13, closes November 9, is capped at $1.3 billion, and is open to employees in 16 countries.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The jump from a $61 billion valuation in May to $90 billion now underscores investor enthusiasm for defense tech amid the Trump administration's push to rebuild U.S. military manufacturing. Anduril's recent Navy shipyard contract and co-founder Palmer Luckey's growing Washington advisory role suggest the company is positioning itself at the center of government modernization efforts, though the valuation reflects investor sentiment rather than confirmed future revenue.
