Investment thesis

Palantir Technologies is an elite software business with a Rule of 40 score of 118, 85% revenue growth, a perfect 4-for-4 earnings beat streak, and superior peer-group quality ranking — but the stock trades at a forward P/E of 64.8x with negative price momentum and a confirmed technical downtrend that must resolve before the fundamental case can be expressed.

About Palantir Technologies Inc.

About Palantir Technologies Inc.

Palantir Technologies generated $4.5 billion in revenue in 2025, with the government segment contributing 54% and the commercial segment 46%; 74% of total revenue came from U.S. customers and 26% from customers abroad. The company held 954 customers as of December 31, 2025, served by four core platforms: Gotham for defense and intelligence operations, Foundry for commercial data management and workflow development, Apollo for continuous software delivery across cloud and on-premises environments, and AIP for generative AI agent deployment. Palantir employed 4,429 full-time employees globally as of December 31, 2025.

Palantir earns revenue through multi-year software contracts — typically one to five years — with government and commercial institutions that expand platform usage over time. The top twenty customers averaged $93.9 million in trailing-twelve-month revenue as of December 31, 2025, up from $64.6 million a year earlier. Total remaining deal value stood at $11.2 billion as of December 31, 2025, split between $6.8 billion in commercial and $4.4 billion in government contracts. Customer acquisition relies on a direct sales force reinforced by AIP bootcamps — short programs that deliver working workflows on actual customer data within days — as well as cloud partnerships with major providers. Revenue is seasonally weighted toward the third and fourth quarters, influenced by U.S. government customers' September 30 fiscal year-end and commercial customers' December 31 budget cycles. The company competes primarily against customers' internal software development efforts, as well as large enterprise software companies, government contractors, and system integrators.

Show full overview

U.S. federal government contracts — representing a portion of the $4.4 billion in government remaining deal value — carry termination-for-convenience provisions, and by law the government may not exercise contract options more than one year in advance. The top three customers accounted for 16% of 2025 revenue, and the 10-K warns that losing or delaying one large government contract could adversely affect results for the affected quarter and future periods. The company's 74% U.S. revenue concentration also subjects the business to federal budget cycles, continuing-resolution risk, and export-control regulations that may restrict certain international deployments.
