What Analysts Think of Palantir Stock Ahead of Earnings

Palantir Technologies (PLTR) is scheduled to report second-quarter results after the closing bell Monday, with analysts divided on one of 2025’s hottest stocks.

Shares of Palantir have more than doubled in price this year, leading the best-performing S&P 500 companies, as the company’s AI software has become a mainstay, particularly within U.S. government agencies.

However, Wall Street largely has been wary of the meteoric rise. The consensus price target among analysts tracked by Visible Alpha is just over $107—roughly 30% lower than Palantir’s Friday close above $154.

Analysts Divided in Their Palantir Ratings

Just two out of 12 analysts have a “buy” or equivalent rating for Palantir stock, alongside seven “hold” ratings and three “sell” recommendations, according to Visible Alpha data. One such bull is Wedbush Securities, which last month lifted its Palantir price target to $160. To hear Wedbush analyst Dan Ives tell it, the Street has it wrong.

“We believe the Street is underestimating the $1 billion+ revenue stream that [Palantir’s Artificial Intelligence Platform] US commercial business can evolve into over the next few years and the technology competitive moat that [CEO Alex] Karp & Co. have built,” Wedbush said.

For the second quarter, analysts expect Palantir to report revenue of $939.6 million, up 39% year-over-year, and adjusted earnings per share of 14 cents, rising from 9 cents a year earlier.
