Prediction: Palantir Stock Will Skyrocket After Nov. 2
Palantir has rallied impressively in recent months, and its upcoming report could give the stock another boost.
Palantir Technologies (PLTR) has seen its stock surge by 62% over the past three months, driven by renewed confidence in software stocks. The company's third-quarter results, expected to be released after the market closes on November 2, may prompt a further increase in Palantir's stock price. This potential boost stems from Palantir's consistent earnings beats, fueled by robust growth from existing customers and the expansion of its customer base.
In Q2, Palantir recorded $3.37 billion in contracts, a 49% increase from the previous year, and revenue rose by 93% year over year to $1.93 billion. The company's Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) has enabled customers to utilize its technology for productivity enhancements, reduced redundancy, and automated operations. Palantir has successfully converted pilot projects and smaller contracts into larger ones, leading to margin improvement.
Analysts anticipate Palantir's adjusted EPS for Q2 to nearly double compared to the year-ago period, and for the current quarter, they forecast an 84% increase over last year. Despite trading at 181 times earnings, Palantir's valuation could be justified by its strong growth trajectory and potential to exceed market expectations.
