Palantir
Autonomy / software · NasdaqGS · px 167.99 · cap $402.1B · score 62
What it does
Sells software. One verified drone integration in this universe: VNav on Black Widow.
Defense autonomy enabler, not a drone manufacturer.
Bull
- If sUAS need GPS-denied nav as a software attach, Palantir is already on a PoR airframe.
- Quality of earnings is in a different league than UAS hardware micro-caps.
Bear
- Drone is rounding error. A 10x in Red Cat does not 10x Palantir.
- Valuation risk is the stock's dominant factor (52-week $106–$207, mcap ~$420B).
Snapshot
Last Q n.d. (n.d. YoY) · GM n.d. · backlog n.d. · cash n.d.
