"This ascent has confounded most financial analysts and the chattering class, whose frames of reference did not quite anticipate a company of this size and scale growing at such a ferocious and unrelenting rate,"
"Some of our detractors have been left in a kind of deranged and self-destructive befuddlement."
"It has indeed been difficult for outsiders to appraise our business, either its significance in shaping our current geopolitics or its value in the vulgar, financial sense."
"The reality is that Palantir has made it possible for retail investors to achieve rates of return previously limited to the most successful venture capitalists in Palo Alto. And we have done so through authentic and substantive growth."
Palantir recorded $1.2 billion in Q3 2025 revenue, a 63% year-over-year increase, and $476 million in profit. U.S. government revenue grew 52% year-over-year to $486 million. The company emphasized unusually rapid and sustained growth for an enterprise software firm. CEO Alex Karp criticized financial analysts and commentators for underestimating the company's scale and momentum, characterizing detractors as deranged and self-destructive. The company highlighted that retail investors have achieved returns comparable to top venture capitalists through Palantir's growth. Observers cautioned that some government contract payments could be delayed pending U.S. government operations resuming.
