Chinese filing implies DeepSeek valuation of around $52 billion
China’s Anhui Korrun said a fund in which its subsidiary invested deployed 2.90 billion yuan for an indirect 0.8265% stake in DeepSeek, implying the privately held artificial intelligence startup was valued at 350.88 billion yuan ($51.82 billion).
The stock-exchange filing offers rare public evidence about the pricing of DeepSeek’s maiden external fundraising, which the low-profile company has never publicly announced or detailed.
