There are the numbers! Palantir presented its results in the United States after closing the IPO and spoke of a real demand explosion in the field of AI. The sales forecast was raised. The current numbers were above the expectations of the analysts. From the shareholders’ point of view, there is still a little hair in the soup.
For the 2025 financial year, Palantir is now in prospect of around $ 3.9 billion. That would be an increase of around 36 percent compared to the previous year. Before that, the company had only assumed 31 percent.
In the first quarter, sales rose by 39 percent to $ 884 million. Analysts had an average of 36 percent. The adjusted profit per share was 13 US cent and thus corresponded to the forecasts.
Sales with corporate customers in the United States rose by 71 percent to $ 255 million in the first quarter. Turnover with US government agencies grew by 45 percent to 373 million. Analysts had expected an average of 358 million.
In the first quarter, Palantir was able to conclude a total of 139 contracts with a minimum volume of $ 1 million each – 51 of them with a volume of at least 5 million, 31 with more than $ 10 million.
The Palantir share is currently extremely expensive. It is evaluated with 200 times the expected profit (KGV) and 70 times the sales (KUV).
Analysts had often adapted their estimates upwards in the past few months. Palantir recently reported significant orders from the US military and NATO (see further articles at the end of the article).

After the share had scratched $ 125 in the US trade at the all-time high today, it could not completely hold the level and was $ 120 shortly after the numbers in post-exchanged trading-and thus almost three percent in minus. However, the course traditionally fluctuates very strongly in this phase. At times, the course also slipped towards $ 117 and thus five percent into the minus. A hair in the soup – but from the perspective of long -term investors, possibly unproblematic in the face of the strong run that Palantir has put in the past few months. The numbers also generally convince.
