Wall Street sets Palantir stock price for the next 12 months

Wall Street sets Palantir stock price for the next 12 months

Palantir (NYSE: PLTR) has been on a remarkable winning streak the past couple of years, consistently posting double-digit revenue growth fueled by surging demand for its artificial intelligence (AI) solutions. 

Indeed, government agencies and commercial clients alike have also rapidly adopted the software company’s Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP), which relies on machine learning to solve complex operational challenges via automation.

Consequently, Palantir shares have more than doubled so far in 2025, having gained nearly 138% year-to-date (YTD) and trading at $179.90 as of the time of writing (October 20).

While the momentum has been more than rewarding, investors are still on the edge of their seats in expectation of further gains now that Palantir’s next earnings report is scheduled for November 3, a date many hope will be another major catalyst for the stock. 

One key reason for the optimism is the past quarter’s performance. For instance, revenue levels surpassed $1 billion in Q2, with 48% year-over-year growth, while the adjusted operating margin grew to 46%, beating expectations by some 300 basis points.

Satisfied with the results, the company raised its Q3 revenue guidance to $1.083 billion and $1.087 billion and its full-year expectations to somewhere in the $4.142–$4.150 billion range. If the forecast proves accurate, the stock could certainly be in for another rally.

Wall Street not impressed with Palantir

Palantir has beaten Wall Street estimates for four consecutive quarters, and the aforementioned results from earlier this year suggest it could do so again. What’s more, the firm is one of the leaders in applied AI and has a steadily growing, high-profile customer base.

However, Wall Street appears to be less optimistic. Namely, a total of 19 analysts project an average Palantir stock price target of $157.65 for the next 12 months. This suggests a -11.51% downside from the current price of nearly $180, as per the market research platform TipRanks.

Palantir price predictions are mixed this month. The stock received a price downgrade from $179.53 to $165 from Mizuho Securities, together with a “Hold” rating, on October 7. A week later, though, Piper Sandler’s Clarke Jeffries tweaked his price target to $201 from $182 while keeping an “Overweight (Buy)” rating, saying that the AI powerhouse still hasn’t hit its peak.

Overall, the predictions are highly varied, going from as low as $45 to as high as $215. As for the aggregated ratings, four consider it a “Buy,” while 13 rate it a “Hold” and two a “Sell.”  

Ultimately, Palantir’s short-term trajectory will largely depend on the strength of its upcoming Q3 reports, while the long-term strength is likely to hinge on its ability to keep the pace going if it indeed does blow the earnings estimates out of the water.
