Guidance: Palantir expects first-quarter revenue to be in the range of $858 million to $862 million, versus estimates of $799.35 million. The company expects full-year 2025 revenue to be between $3.74 billion and $3.76 billion versus estimates of $3.52 billion.

“We are still in the earliest stages, the beginning of the first act, of a revolution that will play out over years and decades,” Karp said in a letter to shareholders.

“This is not an incremental advance or marginal acceleration of our business. This is a new phase. And the momentum we are seeing across sectors, both commercial and government, is unlike anything that has come before.”

Management will hold a conference call with analysts and investors to further discuss the quarter at 5 p.m. ET.
