Cestrian Capital Research Investing Group Leader Follow Summary Palantir delivered accelerating revenue growth and record 51% TTM unlevered pretax FCF margins, supported by a robust $9.4bn net cash position. PLTR's Q2 revenue reached $1.9bn, up 93% YoY, but RPO flatlined at $4.9bn, signaling potential growth deceleration ahead—just as the Q3 guide indicates. We rate PLTR at Hold, with a technical price target of $177, expecting near-term resistance near $150–152. Valuation remains stretched, but sector tailwinds and strong fundamentals justify holding rather than selling at current levels in our view. Looking for a portfolio of ideas like this one?
