Analysts Cheer Palantir’s Record Quarter
Following the Q2 results, several analysts have raised their price target on PLTR stock. However, many are still concerned about the high valuation.
Davidson’s Luria has increased his estimates on Palantir and maintains a favorable outlook on the business. He noted that Palantir ranks among the top 10% of companies his firm covers under our Rule of X framework. However, Luria has maintained his Hold rating on PLTR stock, citing an extreme premium. The stock is currently trading at approximately 103 times its projected 2025 revenue, much higher than its comparable peers.
Similarly, four-star-rated analyst Gregg Moskowitz of Mizuho Securities lifted his price target from $135 to $165 while keeping his Hold rating. Moskowitz praised Palantir’s strong growth in both its Commercial and Government segments, calling its execution “stunning.” However, he warned that the stock remains highly overvalued compared to other software companies. While there’s a risk of a drop in valuation in the coming quarters, he believes Palantir’s unique market position deserves credit.
Is Palantir a Good Stock to Buy?
Turning to Wall Street, analysts have a Hold consensus rating on PLTR stock, based on four Buys, 10 Holds, and two Sells assigned in the last three months. The average Palantir share price target is $150.6, which implies a potential downside of 13% from current levels.
