Palantir (PLTR) shares soared in extended trading Monday after the analytics software company’s fourth-quarter revenue and 2025 outlook sailed past Wall Street expectations amid robust demand for its artificial intelligence platform.

The company, which generated more than 40% of its fourth-quarter sales from the U.S. government, continues to focus on expanding its private sector business, with executives forecasting commercial sales will grow at least 54% in 2025 to more than $1.08 billion as enterprises ramp up deployment of generative AI technology.

The software maker also said that possible tariffs imposed by the Trump administration could help drive demand for its analytics services, which help companies manage supply-chain and logistics decisions.
