Overview
Databricks completed a $5 billion funding round at a $190 billion valuation in August 2026, replacing the earlier $134 billion figure. The company also reported a revenue run-rate above $7 billion.
CEO Ali Ghodsi has said 2026 is not the year for a Databricks IPO. No public listing date has been announced. The FreeMalta read: the private valuation is current; the calendar remains open.
Catalysts
August 2026 funding round and growing data-and-AI platform revenue.
Risks
No public filing or offer price. Private-round valuation may not carry into a future IPO.
FreeMalta Verdict
The $190B round is real. A 2026 IPO is not the plan.

A confidential filing is not a confirmed offer date. Every company file has a dated evidence record; some figures are explicitly reported estimates rather than company disclosures.
