I&#39;m confident this is more than just a short-lived rally, as Palantir&#39;s business looks to be in strong shape. The company&#39;s recent quarterly results suggest that it could have more room to run.</p><p>Here are three reasons more growth is likely ahead for the business and now may be a good time to buy the stock.</p><h2>1. Palantir&#39;s customer count rose 55% last year</h2><p>Over the past several months, many businesses struggled and scaled back expenses as concerns rose that a recession may be on the horizon this year. But Palantir&#39;s business continued to consistently add to its customer count, suggesting that it is more resilient to the effects of inflation than other businesses.</p><p>Palantir added 30 net new customers in Q4 2022, with total customers up 9% quarter over quarter and 55% year over year.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e991adb5fc3f3c7d482ce6f81f1a887e\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"570\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Image source: Palantir Q4 investor presentation.</p><p>While it has been growing at a decreasing rate, those are still some impressive numbers for Palantir. The nature of the company&#39;s software, which helps fight fraud and is used in counterterrorism operations, may make it essential to its customers, especially government agencies.</p><h2>2. Palantir&#39;s net dollar retention rate is high at 115%</h2><p>Another key metric that&#39;s important for the company is the net dollar retention rate, which looks at how much more customers spend versus the prior-year period and it is a good indicator of customer satisfaction. Palantir&#39;s net dollar retention rate was 115% in 2022, which was key to the company&#39;s strong 24% revenue growth last year.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d373d9f7356124d779e5c8c4c5ade2f8\" tg-width=\"576\" tg-height=\"616\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Image source: Palantir Q4 investor presentation.</p><p>Having a strong retention rate such as Palantir&#39;s can make it easier to grow revenue since the company doesn&#39;t have to be entirely dependent on acquiring new customers for growth. But as seen from the earlier chart, Palantir hasn&#39;t had trouble doing that, anyway.</p><h2>3. Palantir&#39;s adjusted gross margins remain north of 80%</h2><p>One percentage that investors should always consider is gross margin. A high gross margin can enable a company to grow its bottom line more easily over time as the business grows. A low gross margin, meanwhile, can make it much more difficult because a company&#39;s overhead will need to be extremely well managed. With Palantir, the company&#39;s adjusted gross margin has been consistently over 80% in each of the past four quarters.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/15715ceeb3bcf1219996520fd11b2cd9\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"331\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Image source: Palantir Q4 investor presentation.</p><p>Those high gross margins are a key reason Palantir hit a milestone this past quarter, reporting its first profitable quarter with earnings per share jumping to $0.01, up from a negative $0.08 in the prior-year period.</p><p>If Palantir can continue to maintain this high adjusted gross margin, then its bottom line should continue to improve over time along with the company&#39;s growth. And as that happens, it can make the tech stock a more attractive buy, leading to better returns for investors.</p><h2>Why Palantir is a buy</h2><p>Palantir&#39;s business continues to grow. For 2023, the company is projecting revenue of between $2.18 billion and $2.23 billion, while remaining profitable. It does look as though the company has turned a corner, with profitability being the norm from here on out. While the stock did get a boost from the positive earnings report, it has given back much of those gains in the days following as concerns about the economy&#39;s future continue to weigh down growth stocks as a whole.</p><p>Palantir looks like a potentially underrated buy this year. If the company is able to continue to produce profitable results while growing its business (at a time when many are struggling to do so), there should be much more bullishness surrounding the stock. Buying shares of Palantir now, while they&#39;re still down more than 40% from their 52-week highs, could be a good move for long-term investors.</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>3 Promising Numbers That Suggest Palantir's Stock Could Continue Rising This Year</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\">\n3 Promising Numbers That Suggest Palantir's Stock Could Continue Rising This Year\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-03-02 21:54 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/03/02/3-promising-numbers-that-suggest-palantirs-stock-c/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Share prices of data analysis company Palantir Technologies are up 25% this year after a brutal performance in 2022 when the stock crashed 65%.
