Banking on the boom in artificial intelligence (AI), tech behemoths such as NVIDIA Corp., Alphabet Inc. and Amazon.com Inc., to name a few, have seen substantial expansion, raising doubts about their growth prospects.
However, smaller companies, including Palantir Technologies Inc. are drawing more investor attention, thanks to record-breaking quarters and raised forecasts. But does this make Palantir a solid stock to buy now? Let’s delve into it –
It’s been an outstanding third quarter for Palantir as its AI offerings accelerated revenue growth. In the third quarter, Palantir’s revenues reached $1.18 billion, reflecting a 63% year-over-year increase and 18% quarter-over-quarter growth, easily beating Wall Street estimates, according to investors.palantir.com.
Most of the revenues were generated from the U.S. commercial segment, which saw sales jump 121% year over year and 29% quarter over quarter to $397 million in Q3. U.S. government revenues also rose 52% year over year and 14% quarter over quarter, totaling $486 million last quarter.
The strong results reflected rapid expansion in the U.S. commercial sector, outpacing the government segment, as many enterprise clients continue to adopt Palantir’s successful Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP). CEO Alex Karp and the management team highlighted several large AI enterprise deals. Consequently, Palantir has raised its revenue guidance to between $1.327 billion and $1.331 billion for Q4 and to $4.396 billion to $4.400 billion for the full year.
Karp also noted that Palantir posted an impressive $476 million in GAAP net income in Q3, nearly half a billion dollars in just three months. He mentioned in his letter to shareholders that this figure now exceeds what the company once earned in revenues over the same period. The GAAP net income margin was 40%.
The increasing popularity of the AIP platform is fueling Palantir’s revenue and profit growth. Its expanding U.S. commercial client base suggests potential long-term growth, and steady government contracts create a barrier for new competitors. These positives should encourage shareholders to maintain their investment in Palantir stock.
