Palantir's real moat is Foundry's position as the agnostic application layer, which compounds as customers keep building on it and makes Palantir more valuable as AI models get cheaper. Revenue of $1.94B beat the $1.81B estimate, up 93%, with EPS of $0.41 versus $0.33, a Rule of 40 score of 155 and 62% operating margins. StockSavvyShay called it one of the strongest quarters Palantir has ever delivered. x.com x.com x.comÂ
Palantir's expanding customer base and large deals suggest its run is not over. Q2 2026 net dollar retention reached 157%, it closed 220 deals of at least $1 million, and customers rose 24% year over year to 1,049. x.comÂ
Better AI models make Palantir more valuable to customers, whose higher spending makes it more cash generative. Its chart shows net dollar retention at 157% and quarterly free cash flow per share at $0.47, roughly 8x its level three years earlier. Palantir will soon be a 100-bagger alongside AMD. x.comÂ
Palantir Technologies is exceptional as a business but overpriced at about 90 times forward earnings, so much of its future is already paid for. Revenue is growing 85% with a 60% operating margin, 150% net dollar retention and about $7.7 billion in revenue guided for the year, numbers that are genuinely rare at its size. Being right about the business and wrong about the price is still a loss. x.comÂ
Palantir may be undervalued because the market values it as a software company while its opportunity is much bigger. It spans AI deployment, government contracts, enterprise adoption and mission-critical data infrastructure, and expensive stocks can stay expensive when the business keeps expanding. x.comÂ
Palantir's government contract activity is growing sharply, supporting its resilience despite the share-price pullback. Its $2.1 billion in 12-month obligations is up 184% from the prior year, among the strongest increases tracked. The Cryptic Bottom Index remains green despite the pullback. Its score is among the highest in the Cryptic Research System, led by growth and profitability, though catalysts and valuation score weakest. x.com x.com x.comÂ
Palantir's reliance on pay-as-you-go service with refunds makes customer cancellations and sudden earnings declines or write-downs a serious risk as AI and high SaaS prices pressure the business. Its 10-Q warns of these risks. Anthropic can and will easily replace Palantir with an all-in-one platform under Democratic control of the legislative branches. x.com x.comÂ
Palantir's accelerating commercial growth, sticky contracts and high margins make it a standout aggressive growth name despite its premium valuation. Q1 2026 revenue rose 85% to $1.63B, US commercial revenue grew 133% and government 84%, and full-year guidance was raised to about 71% growth. CEO Alex Karp cites overwhelming demand it cannot fully meet, showing real platform adoption rather than hype. x.comÂ
Palantir keeps printing growth that software companies at its scale are not supposed to achieve. Revenue grew 93% year over year last quarter, US commercial revenue grew 149%, and full-year guidance was raised to 82% growth. x.comÂ
Palantir's share price demands unusually fast cash and profit growth despite its strong business. At roughly $210, it implies 48.5% annual growth for five years; at 32% annual growth, the shares would be worth $96.64. It is a Watch, not a Buy at today's prices. Q2 sales rose 93% and cash flow after employee stock pay was $2.52 billion over 12 months, but government concentration, cancellable contracts and rising stock pay remain risks. x.com x.com x.com x.com x.com x.com x.com x.comÂ
Continued improvement in fundamentals and technicals could carry Palantir to megacap scale. A $1 trillion market cap is a realistic destination for strong growth companies, and Palantir appears on that path, though its timing is uncertain. Drawdowns remain opportunities to accumulate until the thesis changes. x.comÂ
