Two Questions That Matter

The print will turn on these two things.

What will the EPS be this quarter?

How is customer retention trending?

Customer retention is critical for Palantir's growth strategy, and any changes could significantly impact future revenue.

Edge

What the Street Is Missing

Why consensus could be wrong

The consensus may underestimate Palantir's ability to sustain its growth trajectory, particularly in light of its recent EPS surprises.

Supporting Evidence

Palantir has consistently beaten EPS estimates, suggesting stronger operational performance than anticipated.

The options market is pricing in a significant move, indicating that investors expect volatility that may not align with consensus expectations.

Key Risk

If customer retention rates show improvement, it could challenge the current cautious outlook.

Edge

Thesis-Break Levels

Pre-commit to what would confirm each case.

The market is debating whether Palantir can maintain its growth and profitability amid increasing competition and market pressures.

Bull Confirmed If

An EPS of $0.35 or higher would confirm the bull case, indicating strong profitability.
