On January 12, Citigroup analyst Tyler Radke increased his 12-month price target for Palantir Technologies by more than 30%, citing accelerating adoption of its AI software platforms among enterprise and government clients. Radke’s revised target now implies potential upside of over 30% from current levels, marking the third upward revision by a major Wall Street firm in the past six months. The upgrade follows a sustained rally that has lifted Palantir shares by nearly 2,000% since 2020, driven largely by growing demand for data integration and machine-learning solutions.

In its Q3 2025 report, Palantir posted adjusted EPS of $0.21 versus consensus of $0.17 and generated revenue of $1.18 billion compared with estimates of $1.09 billion. The 8% revenue beat and 24% EPS beat were attributed to higher subscription renewals and initial deployments of its Foundry and AIP platforms. Management guided Q4 revenue growth of 55% year-over-year, citing several large commercial deals in the pipeline and expectation of continued government spending on intelligence and defense analytics.

Since the end of Q3, Palantir has announced two landmark contracts: a £1.5 billion multi-year partnership with the U.K. Ministry of Defence and a $10 billion terms agreement with the U.S. Army to deploy its Gotham and Foundry platforms for mission-critical operations. These awards bring total new contract wins to $11.5 billion over a six-month span, boosting Palantir’s government backlog to an estimated $25 billion. With government revenue accounting for roughly 55% of total sales in 2024, these deals underpin expectations for a sustained 25% compound annual growth rate in public-sector bookings through 2028.

Analysts project Palantir’s revenue to climb from $2.9 billion in 2025 to $8.5 billion by 2030, implying a five-year compound annual growth rate of 24%. Net income is forecast to rise from $0.46 billion to nearly $3.0 billion over the same period, with EPS expanding from $0.21 to $1.27. At current multiples, the stock trades at over 100 times forward sales and nearly 200 times projected 2026 earnings, positioning it among the most richly valued software names. Even so, a median 2026 price target of $202.50 from 24/7 Wall St. suggests roughly 18% upside, contingent on execution in both new commercial segments and modular sales to mid-market customers.
