The case for and against
Both sides of the story, in plain English.
- Otherworldly Quarter
Sales grew 93% compared to last year, hitting 1.9 billion dollars in a single quarter. The business with American companies is the real story, growing 149% to 764 million dollars. Management raised the full year forecast to 82% growth, or roughly 8.15 billion dollars.
- Cash Machine
Palantir made 1.06 billion dollars in profit last quarter, a 55% margin, and turned 1.22 billion dollars into free cash. It signed 3.37 billion dollars of new contracts, including a record 2.13 billion with American companies, and sits on 9.2 billion dollars in cash.
- Priced Perfectly
Even with 93% growth, the stock trades at one of the richest valuations in the market, with a company value north of 300 billion dollars. Investors are paying a huge premium for every dollar of earnings, so one soft quarter could knock shares down 20% or more fast.
- America Heavy
U.S. revenue jumped 115% to 1.57 billion dollars, which is most of the company. Business outside America is growing far slower, so if U.S. government budgets tighten or corporate spending cools, there is no overseas engine to pick up the slack.
