Palantir Technologies reported soaring profits as its U.S. commercial revenue overtook government business for the first time. The company's revenue surged, driven by enterprises increasingly turning away from AI labs to fully control their use of the technology. Chief Executive Alex Karp said demand for Palantir's Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) is "unlike anything" he has seen in 20 years. U.S. commercial revenue jumped 55% year-over-year to $159 million, surpassing U.S. government revenue of $144 million.
Total revenue rose 27% to $678 million, beating estimates. Net income reached $144 million, a significant turnaround from a loss a year earlier. The company raised its full-year revenue guidance to $2.75 billion.
Palantir's stock surged in after-hours trading, reflecting investor confidence in its commercial AI strategy.
