OpenAI Named Yahoo Finance Company of the Year Despite $1.4 Trillion Commitments and Record Losses

On December 15, 2025, OpenAI was selected as Yahoo Finance's Company of the Year even as it carried the largest losses ever recorded, tied to $1.4 trillion in spending plans. The firm shifted into a for-profit structure, struck massive deals with Microsoft, Oracle, AMD, Nvidia and others, and now reports 800 million weekly active users, $13 billion in 2025 revenue, and a private valuation of $500 billion. HSBC projects a $207 billion funding gap by 2030, while analysts warn that ambitious chip and data center investments have rattled partners and heightened competitive and financial risks.
