Angerer</span></p><h2>Introduction</h2><p>Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) announced that is latest line-up of iPhones 14, while having enhanced qualities, will be sold all at the same prices as last year’s models, despite inflationary pressure that was leading many analyststo $100 price hike forecast.</p><p>This paints a picture that poses a danger for Apple: is the world&#39;s largest company going to see its margins shrink and its profitability reduced?</p><p>In this article, I would like to highlight what I think Apple&#39;s strategy may be to deliver yet again improving results that keep its high margins up.</p><h2>The context</h2><p>The research firm International Data Corp expects a worldwide decline in 2022 smartphone shipments of 6.5%. Nonetheless, the average price for new smartphones is expected to finish this year about 6% higher than last year, with the premium segment (where we find Apple) that is proving to be resilient to the economic turmoil with a 4% growth in market share to 16% of the total smartphone market.</p><p>The picture is somewhat mixed. On one side we have a weakening economy, on the other, we see Apple among the resilient businesses. But, by keeping iPhones prices the same, Apple will risk the undermining of its profits, given the fact that inflation drives up production costs. Some believe that Apple will take this hit, given its net income of $79 billion in the first three quarters of the year. However, I would like to show that we shouldn&#39;t be too rash in stating that Apple will just give up a small percentage, yet big in absolute terms, of its profits without doing anything to prevent it.</p><p>Apple sold an estimated 106 million iPhones through the first half of this year, an 8% increase and still expects to reach 220 million iPhones for 2022. Furthermore, the annual revenue estimates see Apple reaching an $88.47 billion 4th quarter, which, in confirmed, is a 6% growth YoY.</p><p>The analyst Dan Ives has also pointed out that Apple&#39;s initial order for 90 million iPhone 14 units has &#34;stayed firm&#34;. In fact, almost 25% of the 1 billion iPhone users across the world have not upgraded in 3.5 years and demand in China for the high-end devices continues to remain strong.</p><p>So, if sales are expected to grow 6% while inflation is around 8% it seems reasonable to expect Apple to suffer a bit. We could also account the strong dollar that is hurting Apple&#39;s revenue outside the U.S. All of this leads us to the question about Apple&#39;s next fiscal year.</p><h2>The business model: from a transactional to a subscription company</h2><p>If Apple were to rely only on its devices sales, then there wouldn&#39;t be a way around it: keeping prices the same means shrinking margins. However, is Apple only a transactional company?</p><p>Before we dive into some math, we have to consider that Apple is changing its business model, leveraging the fact that it is able to place its hardware devices in every corner. Instead of profiting only from selling hardware, Apple is gradually shifting its focus on maximizing the way to monetize the huge base of installed devices it has all over the world. In other words, Apple is considering every device not only as product sales revenue, but also as the key to earn more money from its user during the device lifetime. If we want to make it even clearer, Apple wants to make more money from its devices, especially the iPhones, the iPads and the MacBooks.</p><p>How is Apple achieving this? Through services. Apple offers different subscription services that offer recurrent revenue from every device. This is why Apple has started breaking down its revenue between products and services. By doing this, Apple can show how its real growth driver at the moment is found in the offered services.</p><p>In its annual report, Apple explains what it considers when it reports service sales:</p><blockquote>Services net sales include sales from the Company’s advertising, AppleCare, cloud, digital content, payment and other services. Services net sales also include amortization of the deferred value of services bundled in the sales price of certain products.</blockquote><p>I think it is still to understand the leveraging power Apple has. While many subscription based companies need to prove to their customers the value of their services, Apple has the huge advantage of basing its subscriptions on material goods that millions of customers around the world already have and want to have. I think this is Apple&#39;s real moat: it is materially present almost everywhere with its devices. Now it only needs to extract more money from their daily usage.</p><h2>Seeking recurrent revenue</h2><p>Back in March 2022, Bloomberg reported that Apple is working on a hardware subscription service for the iPhone which would not be equal to the full price split over 24 months, but that would really offer a new way of becoming an iPhone user. However, while this news is promising, we don&#39;t have enough data to make a forecast of the positive impact if will have on Apple.</p><p>Things are different if we look at the current services. Back in 2016, the average Apple user was estimated to pay $1 per day for hardware and services. According to Katy Huberty, an Apple analyst, at present the average user spends $280 each year on Apple hardware and an additional $69 on services. It is also widely believed that there are about 1 billion Apple users who can give Apple recurring sales income as they adopt new service subscriptions.</p><p>According to the analyst Woodring, Apple users will spend in a few years $2 per day on Apple products or services, a figure already achieved by US iPhone owners. This means that Apple will see a daily revenue of $2 billion, which leads to an annual revenue of $730 billion, which is twice the size of the revenue Apple reported in 2021. It can be reasonable to expect that as the hardware subscription service kicks off, the program will boost the adoption of Apple&#39;s first-party services, such as Music, iCloud, etc. This should have a positive impact on services growth but it should also diminish the company’s dependence on App Store sales. In fact, around 30% of Apple’s current services revenue comes from here. The more Apple sells its first-hand services, the larger the chunk of profits it can retain. However, third party apps are indeed a very profitable business, as Apple has very low costs to earn this revenue since it just needs to make its app store available.</p><p>So far, we know that at the end of fiscal year 2021, Apple users had 785 million paid subscriptions across Apple’s first and third-party services. With a reasonable forecast of $76 billion revenue from services in 2022, Apple will reach a 235% growth from the $32.7 billion services revenue reported in 2017, the year when Apple started reporting its net sales with the breakdown between products and services. In the same time span, revenue from products increased 160% from $196.5 billion to the expected $315.9 billion at the end of fiscal year 2022. This growth is shown in the graph below where we see the annual sales split up in products and services.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8d2547d7f4afd1fb9114caa34a469f3f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"302\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Author with data from Apple&#39;s Annual Reports</span></p><p>However, the importance of this graph is not only to highlight the growing chunk of the services revenue, but also to show that as services revenue grows, so does the gross margin. Currently, services account for about 20% of the total revenues, but the impact they have on margins is becoming more and more meaningful. In fact, the cost of services is decreasing as a percentage of total costs, moving from 10.43% in 2017 to 9.24% in 2022. In addition, and even more importantly, the gross margin Apple obtains from the services revenue is moving up from 55% in 2017 to around 72.5% at the end of FY22, as shown below. During the same period of time, the gross margin of the products revenue has seen actually a compression or around 2 pps.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7f90ad845ba6da80aebe515476acede2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"370\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Author, with data from Apple&#39;s Annual Reports</span></p><p>Nonetheless, even if the products gross margin shrunk, the increase in services gross margin, even if it has an impact on only 20% of total revenues, has been so meaningful to drag upwards the total gross margin of Apple that moved up from 38.5% in 2017 to almost 42% at the end of last year, with a forecast for this fiscal year to be still around this level.</p><p>So, why can Apple afford not to raise prices this year? For sure, part of is a marketing expense that wants to make customers perceive the iPhone as somewhat in reach in an inflationary environment where everything costs more. But, the impact on the revenue will not be as great as we may expect because Apple knows that it is monetizing better all its users. Therefore, Apple knows that even though purchase price of the iPhones remains the same, the company is extracting more money from a device compared to what it was able to do just a year ago.</p><p>In fact, if we divide last year&#39;s services revenue by Apple&#39;s users we see that in 2021 every user spent around $68 in annual services (keep in mind that the $2 per day reported above takes into account products and services together). This year Apple should see at least an 11.7% growth to $76 annual services revenue per user. Clearly, the annual services revenue per user is meaningful.</p><p>We can also look at this revenue from another point of view to understand the possible growth for this segment. During the last earnings call,Tim Cook reported that</p><blockquote>We now have more than 860 million paid subscriptions across the services on our platform, which is up more than 160 million during the last 12 months alone.</blockquote><p>If we divide the $76.8 billion services revenue by the 860 million paid subscription we get that the revenue per subscription is $89, which proves once more that Apple knows it has room to turn more users into paying subscribers.</p><p>In any case, this services growth is enough to offset the current inflation rate, which, as many believe, is set to come down during 2023, where services should have at least a 21% weight on total revenues. Thus, even if the products revenue stays flat (and this would be somewhat of a surprise given the fact that the premium segment is growing), we would have a fifth of total revenues bump up another 10-13%, with a very low cost of sales. The impact on the revenue might still be just around 2%, however the impact on the gross margin will be already more tangible, lifting it up above 42% thus leading Apple to new record profits.</p><p>To this strategy, we could also add that Apple is developing its direct to consumer sales through its e-commerce. Some estimates show that around 15% of iPhone shipments, 30% of Mac/iPads, and 20-25% of Wearables (AirPods and Apple Watch) are sold directly through this channel which brings Apple to enjoy more margins while decreasing sales costs.</p><p>We mentioned briefly that Apple could also a FX problem. While I think the company may expect a little weakening of the dollar, given the point it has reached this year, I think that the fact the company didn&#39;t raise prices show how much Apple relies on the shift towards services revenue.</p><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>The first stock I invested in was Apple. At that time I didn&#39;t know how to read financial statements, nor did I have any particular experience of investing other than having heard a few ideas from my father who had been doing it. But I was sure of the brand. Alas, when I saw a 40% gain I sold my single share and I used the dividends received meanwhile to go drink a coffee. Had I kept that share, now I would have much more. However, the more I developed a passion for investing, the more I returned to Apple and started noticing that the company is not idle nor just sits on its earned status. I keep on seeing a company that becomes more profitable and that is actually set to have a moat no other subscription company has ever enjoyed with the combination of hardware devices that produce recurrent revenue. Financials are important and I always look at them, but in Apple&#39;s case (as in many others) it is important to understand the driving force behind these numbers in order to understand how a business can fare in the future. I think Apple is yet to deliver good and improving results as it leverages its moat and this is why I keep on rating it a buy.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

However, third party apps are indeed a very profitable business, as Apple has very low costs to earn this revenue since it just needs to make its app store available.So far, we know that at the end of fiscal year 2021, Apple users had 785 million paid subscriptions across Apple’s first and third-party services. With a reasonable forecast of $76 billion revenue from services in 2022, Apple will reach a 235% growth from the $32.7 billion services revenue reported in 2017, the year when Apple started reporting its net sales with the breakdown between products and services. In the same time span, revenue from products increased 160% from $196.5 billion to the expected $315.9 billion at the end of fiscal year 2022. This growth is shown in the graph below where we see the annual sales split up in products and services.Author with data from Apple's Annual ReportsHowever, the importance of this graph is not only to highlight the growing chunk of the services revenue, but also to show that as services revenue grows, so does the gross margin. Currently, services account for about 20% of the total revenues, but the impact they have on margins is becoming more and more meaningful. In fact, the cost of services is decreasing as a percentage of total costs, moving from 10.43% in 2017 to 9.24% in 2022. In addition, and even more importantly, the gross margin Apple obtains from the services revenue is moving up from 55% in 2017 to around 72.5% at the end of FY22, as shown below. During the same period of time, the gross margin of the products revenue has seen actually a compression or around 2 pps.Author, with data from Apple's Annual ReportsNonetheless, even if the products gross margin shrunk, the increase in services gross margin, even if it has an impact on only 20% of total revenues, has been so meaningful to drag upwards the total gross margin of Apple that moved up from 38.5% in 2017 to almost 42% at the end of last year, with a forecast for this fiscal year to be still around this level.So, why can Apple afford not to raise prices this year? For sure, part of is a marketing expense that wants to make customers perceive the iPhone as somewhat in reach in an inflationary environment where everything costs more. But, the impact on the revenue will not be as great as we may expect because Apple knows that it is monetizing better all its users. Therefore, Apple knows that even though purchase price of the iPhones remains the same, the company is extracting more money from a device compared to what it was able to do just a year ago.In fact, if we divide last year's services revenue by Apple's users we see that in 2021 every user spent around $68 in annual services (keep in mind that the $2 per day reported above takes into account products and services together). This year Apple should see at least an 11.7% growth to $76 annual services revenue per user. Clearly, the annual services revenue per user is meaningful.We can also look at this revenue from another point of view to understand the possible growth for this segment. During the last earnings call,Tim Cook reported thatWe now have more than 860 million paid subscriptions across the services on our platform, which is up more than 160 million during the last 12 months alone.If we divide the $76.8 billion services revenue by the 860 million paid subscription we get that the revenue per subscription is $89, which proves once more that Apple knows it has room to turn more users into paying subscribers.In any case, this services growth is enough to offset the current inflation rate, which, as many believe, is set to come down during 2023, where services should have at least a 21% weight on total revenues. Thus, even if the products revenue stays flat (and this would be somewhat of a surprise given the fact that the premium segment is growing), we would have a fifth of total revenues bump up another 10-13%, with a very low cost of sales. The impact on the revenue might still be just around 2%, however the impact on the gross margin will be already more tangible, lifting it up above 42% thus leading Apple to new record profits.To this strategy, we could also add that Apple is developing its direct to consumer sales through its e-commerce. Some estimates show that around 15% of iPhone shipments, 30% of Mac/iPads, and 20-25% of Wearables (AirPods and Apple Watch) are sold directly through this channel which brings Apple to enjoy more margins while decreasing sales costs.We mentioned briefly that Apple could also a FX problem. While I think the company may expect a little weakening of the dollar, given the point it has reached this year, I think that the fact the company didn't raise prices show how much Apple relies on the shift towards services revenue.ConclusionThe first stock I invested in was Apple. At that time I didn't know how to read financial statements, nor did I have any particular experience of investing other than having heard a few ideas from my father who had been doing it. But I was sure of the brand. Alas, when I saw a 40% gain I sold my single share and I used the dividends received meanwhile to go drink a coffee. Had I kept that share, now I would have much more. However, the more I developed a passion for investing, the more I returned to Apple and started noticing that the company is not idle nor just sits on its earned status. I keep on seeing a company that becomes more profitable and that is actually set to have a moat no other subscription company has ever enjoyed with the combination of hardware devices that produce recurrent revenue. Financials are important and I always look at them, but in Apple's case (as in many others) it is important to understand the driving force behind these numbers in order to understand how a business can fare in the future. I think Apple is yet to deliver good and improving results as it leverages its moat and this is why I keep on rating it a buy.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":438,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9935853020,"gmtCreate":1663072190661,"gmtModify":1676537196176,"author":{"id":"4100154061997160","authorId":"4100154061997160","name":"虎洁","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/95468b36c721d552193b43a4b0d4efce","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4100154061997160","authorIdStr":"4100154061997160"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Like&nbsp;","listText":"Like&nbsp;","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9935853020","repostId":"2266325053","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2266325053","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1663035105,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2266325053?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-09-13 10:11","market":"us","language":"en","title":"4 Growth Stocks to Buy and Hold Forever","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2266325053","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Buying when these stocks are low could be the investment move of a lifetime.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Who doesn&#39;t love a great growth stock?

Those impressive figures more than justify its price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 27.4, which is a good deal higher than the <b>S&amp;P 500</b> average of 20.5.</p><p>Microsoft has long earned a premium from the market -- its five-year average P/E is over 35. Smart investors might use the recent market swoon as an opportunity to load up on one of the world&#39;s premier companies -- before its valuation bounces higher.</p><h2>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SPOT\">Spotify</a></h2><p>After years of decline, music industry revenue has surged to its highest level in more than 20 years. The reason? Music streaming companies like <b>Spotify</b>.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cfba0c37d379e16f6fcabe26efcf82f4\" tg-width=\"1200\" tg-height=\"1200\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>While physical and digital music sales have continued to wane, audio streaming has exploded over the last seven years and now accounts for over $15 billion of music industry revenue. Moreover, Spotify isn&#39;t satisfied with just delivering great music to its users. The company has invested in podcasts and audiobooks, landing exclusive deals with celebrities as varied as Joe Rogan and Meghan Markle.</p><p>Operationally, the company is firing on all cylinders. In its most recent quarterly report, Spotify announced a 19% year-over-year increase in daily average users (DAUs) to 433 million and a 14% jump in paid subscribers to 188 million. The company is expanding its international user base, and it specifically called out blistering growth among Gen Z users in Latin America. Just as video streaming disrupted traditional TV and movies, streaming has done the same to audio. Smart investors should take note and load up on Spotify shares now.</p><h2>3. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RBLX\">Roblox</a></h2><p>My third recommendation is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/RBLX\">Roblox</a>. As I&#39;ve noted before, owning Roblox is one way for investors to participate in the growth of Web3. As the internet continues to evolve, more and more individuals will start to own virtual assets: digital currencies, non-fungible tokens, and many other forms of property.</p><p>Roblox, as the operator of an online metaverse-style gaming network, has a first-mover advantage when it comes to Web3. It has some 58.5 million DAUs. In July alone, its users spent more than 4.7 billion hours exploring its platform. This size and scale, along with the brand loyalty and network effect that results from such a large pool of users, means Roblox has a leg up on other companies that want to &#34;own&#34; the metaverse. Yes, I&#39;m looking at you,<b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Meta Platforms</a></b>.</p><p>While Meta Platforms is spending billions of dollars to develop its own version of the metaverse, Roblox has already captured the hearts and minds of millions of users, many of them under the age of 18. And while this year has seen Roblox stock tumble as it came up against incredibly difficult year-over-year comparisons to its lockdown-fueled 2021, the company continues to steadily grow its user base.</p><p>In time, those users (and their billions of hours spent on the platform) <i>will be monetized</i>. Investors who are willing to ride out this admittedly volatile name should be rewarded for their patience.</p><h2>4. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ABNB\">Airbnb</a></h2><p>The fourth stock to buy and hold forever is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ABNB\">Airbnb</a>. If there&#39;s one thing everyone can agree on, it&#39;s this: After the last two years, it seems everyone has needed a vacation this year. And as the world largely rolled back pandemic restrictions and travel picked up, Airbnb was there to provide a place for eager tourists to stay.</p><p>But the company is so much more than just a play on reopening economies. CEO Brian Chesky made waves when he announced in May of this year that, &#34;The office, as we know it, is over.&#34; Chesky seems to be right on the money. Airbnb has reported that close to half of its bookings are for stays of seven days or more, and 19% are for stays of 28 days or more.</p><p>Airbnb is capitalizing on the new work-from-home reality. And it&#39;s bringing a sense of whimsy to travel by offering exotic accommodations like castles, windmills, caves, and treehouses.</p><p>The analyst community is convinced. Wall Street expects Airbnb to record $8.3 billion in revenue this year, a jump of 38% from 2021. For the following year, it expects revenue to surpass $9.5 billion.</p><p>So for investors looking to add growth to their portfolio, Airbnb is a stock worth adding to their wish list.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>4 Growth Stocks to Buy and Hold Forever</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n4 Growth Stocks to Buy and Hold Forever\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-09-13 10:11 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/09/12/4-growth-stocks-to-buy-and-hold-forever/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Who doesn't love a great growth stock?

More conservative traders may wait to enter a position on a break down from the neckline.Bullish traders may wait to enter into a position if the security climbs above the highest price within the second arc, which negates the bearish head-and-shoulders pattern and indicates an accelerated move to the upside may follow.The Palantir Chart: Palantir completed a head-and-shoulders pattern on Thursday, with the left shoulder formed between July 20 and  July 26, the head formed between July 27 and Aug. 9 and the right shoulder formed over the trading days that have followed. On Friday, the stock was reacting to the pattern and falling through the descending neckline but on lower-than-average volume, which indicates there may not be momentum to the downside.The loss of downwards momentum may be due to Palantir approaching a long-term descending trendline, which began on Dec. 9, 2021. The stock broke up from the trendline on July 20 and may find support at the area if Palantir continues to fall lower.The measured move, if the descending trendline doesn’t hold as support, is about 30%, which suggests Palantir could retrace toward $6.20. If the stock falls that far, bullish traders can watch for a bounce, because by that time Palantir’s relative strength index will have entered into oversold territory.Palantir has resistance above at $8.92 and $9.79 and support below at $7.50 and $6.44.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":461,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9904035951,"gmtCreate":1659956582177,"gmtModify":1703476349886,"author":{"id":"4100154061997160","authorId":"4100154061997160","name":"虎洁","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/95468b36c721d552193b43a4b0d4efce","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4100154061997160","authorIdStr":"4100154061997160"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Looking forward to&nbsp;","listText":"Looking forward to&nbsp;","text":"Looking forward to","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9904035951","repostId":"1166279467","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1166279467","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1659949477,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1166279467?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-08 17:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Palantir: Judgement Day","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1166279467","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryPalantir is about to report its Q2 earnings results.Despite the decline in share prices earli","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>Summary</b></p><ul><li>Palantir is about to report its Q2 earnings results.</li><li>Despite the decline in share prices earlier this year, there are reasons to be optimistic about the company’s future.</li><li>This article will highlight some of the recent developments that could have a lasting impact on the company’s financials in the following quarters.</li></ul><p>On Monday, Palantir (NYSE:PLTR) will report its Q2 earnings results, which will be able to answer several critical questions regarding the company&#39;s future.

While those talking points certainly exposed some of the risks related to owning Palantir, most of them are no longer relevant that much after the management began to tackle those issues in recent quarters, which I have covered in one of my latest articles on the company earlier this year.</p><p>The important question at this stage is whether Palantir will be able to continue to grow at a double-digit rate in the current turbulent environment that&#39;s full of new systemic shocks and challenges. Earlier this year the company reported a weaker than expected outlook for Q2 amid the lower government spending, which could prevent its defense business from growing at an aggressive rate in the following months. As all of us wait for the results to come out in order to figure out what the future holds for Palantir, this article will highlight some of the recent developments that could have a lasting impact on the company&#39;s financials in the following quarters.</p><p><b>Reasons To Be Optimistic</b></p><p>After releasing its Q1 earnings report a few months ago, Palantir&#39;s management gave relatively weak guidance for Q2. While the street expected Palantir&#39;s Q2 sales to be $483.76 million, the management announced that its base scenario projects only $470 million in sales for the June quarter. However, the company hinted that the top-line performance could be better than expected by stating the following:</p><blockquote>There is a wide range of potential upside to our guidance, including those driven by our role in responding to developing geopolitical events.</blockquote><p>Considering that in Q1, Palantir&#39;s customer count grew by 86% Y/Y, the company does have an opportunity to beat its guidance thanks to the potential increase in revenues from those new clients. At the same time, there&#39;s also a possibility that Palantir will be able to grow its revenues thanks to the signing of new contracts and winning new awards from governmental agencies. In my latest article on the company, I have already noted how the war in Ukraine along with the increase in defense spending by NATO members is a major long-term growth catalyst for Palantir due to its close connections with the U.S. Department of Defense.</p><p>Let&#39;s not forget that Palantir is one of the few companies in the world along with Microsoft (MSFT) and Amazon (AMZN) that has an impact level 6 DoD SRG authorization, which allows the storage and transfer of secret classified data through its software solutions. As a result, we could expect Palantir to sign new governmental contracts in the future especially since defense spending is expected to accelerate in the following years. Last week Palantir has already signed a new $99.9 million deal with the U.S. Army to implement AI and ML capabilities for the combatant commands, and it&#39;s unlikely to be the last deal with the army, considering that the company is also working on the TITAN program to enhance multidomain operations.</p><p>In addition to all of this, the number of Palantir&#39;s commercial deals with private and public companies has been on the rise as well. The latest earnings results proved that the company&#39;s solutions are in high demand even in the current environment, as its commercial revenues wereup54% Y/Y, while its commercial revenues in the United States alone were up 136% Y/Y. As corporations grow and their processes become more complex, they need companies such as Palantir to handle all the data in order to figure out where all of their weak spots are and how to tackle them.</p><p>In addition, as Big Tech talks about a hiring freeze, Palantir doubles down on employees and expects to increase its headcount by 25% by the end of 2022. This is a sign that its business is growing and its software solutions continue to be in high demand despite the turbulent environment.</p><p>What&#39;s also important to mention is that despite having a forward P/Sratioof ~12x and trading at a premium, the street believes that the stock still has an upside, as its consensus price target is $11.99 per share. There are several reasons for it. First of all, Palantirhas$2.52 billion in cash reserves and no debt, which gives the company more flexibility in the current environment with higher interest rates. At the same time, the business has an insane gross profit margin of nearly 80%, as its main expenses go mostly to retaining the top talent to develop unique software solutions that could generate nearly $2 billion in revenues this year alone.</p><p>Let&#39;s not forget that despite all the challenges, Palantir continues to grow at an aggressive double-digit rate and the street&#39;s consensus is that the business will continue to grow its top line at a nearly 30% rate in the following quarters. That&#39;s why we could justify Palantir&#39;s premium multiples given its ability to grow at an aggressive rate after being in the business for nearly two decades even in the current environment.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/be3151ba9247266d54e293a72a5f4db4\" tg-width=\"893\" tg-height=\"310\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>Palantir&#39;s Consensus Price Target (Seeking Alpha)</p><p><b>What Could Go Wrong?</b></p><p>As I&#39;ve already mentioned at the beginning of this article, the constant insider selling and an excessive stock-based compensation policy are no longer as big of a threat to the stock as they were before. The latest data shows that after Alex Karp&#39;s options expired in December, the constant dumping of shares that was creating selling pressure already stopped more than half a year ago. At the same time, the stock-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash expenses, have been declining as well in recent quarters. Therefore, I don&#39;t see both of those risks relevant anymore, especially since Palantir insiders still have skin in the game, continue to own 10.74% of the company&#39;s outstanding shares, and don&#39;t benefit from the declining share price as well.</p><p>However, several real challenges could prevent Palantir&#39;s stock from rising higher in the short to near term. First of all, we already saw how growth stocks collapsed since the beginning of the year due to the worsening macro environment. As Fed continues to raise interest rates to tackle inflation, which could likely result in a moderate recession, there&#39;s a risk that growth names will continue to trade in distressed territory for a while in the foreseeable future.</p><p>What&#39;s worse is that in recent years Palantir has been actively investing in variousSPACsto gain access to various markets from different industries. The problem is that SPACs are unlikely to perform well in the current turbulent environment as well, so there&#39;s a high possibility that in addition to a badly performing stock Palantir could also have significant unrealized losses from its investments. The problem is that we won&#39;t be able to figure this out since the full terms of the deals that Palantir made are not reported directly, which leaves investors in the dark.</p><p>There are however some investments with the potential to create an additional shareholder value such as Palantir&#39;s equity stake in the geospatial intelligence firm BlackSky (BKSY), which recently has been winning major awards from the private and public sector organizations. However, other than that most of the information on those investments is fairly limited, which could lead to major losses for Palantir without investors knowing about it. As a result, there&#39;s always a risk that Palantir could underperform and disappoint its investors.</p><p><b>The Bottom Line</b></p><p>Despite the short to near-term risks described above, we shouldn&#39;t forget that even in a conservative scenario Palantir is projected to continue to grow at an aggressive double-digit growth rate after being in the business for nearly two decades. The company has a healthy balance sheet with enough liquidity to tackle the incoming challenges, while its capital-light business model will help it to continue to keep its operating margins at high levels and generate a meaningful FCF for years to come.</p><p>At the same time, greater penetration of its software solutions in the commercial field along with a close relationship with the Department of Defense should help the company to continue to expand at an aggressive rate in the future. For that reason, I continue to be a long-term bull of Palantir and believe that no matter what numbers are reported tomorrow, the company has much more room for growth from the current levels.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Palantir: Judgement Day</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nPalantir: Judgement Day\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-08-08 17:04 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4531127-palantir-q2-earnings-judgement-day><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryPalantir is about to report its Q2 earnings results.Despite the decline in share prices earlier this year, there are reasons to be optimistic about the company’s future.This article will ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4531127-palantir-q2-earnings-judgement-day\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"PLTR":"Palantir Technologies Inc."},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4531127-palantir-q2-earnings-judgement-day","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1166279467","content_text":"SummaryPalantir is about to report its Q2 earnings results.Despite the decline in share prices earlier this year, there are reasons to be optimistic about the company’s future.This article will highlight some of the recent developments that could have a lasting impact on the company’s financials in the following quarters.On Monday, Palantir (NYSE:PLTR) will report its Q2 earnings results, which will be able to answer several critical questions regarding the company's future.
