Palantir Technologies Inc., liquidity ratios (quarterly data)
Based on: 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2024-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2024-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2023-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2023-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2022-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2022-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2021-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2021-03-31).
- Current Ratio Trend
- The current ratio exhibits a consistent upward trend over the observed periods. Starting at 3.88 in the first quarter of 2021, it gradually increases with minor fluctuations reaching a peak of 6.49 by the first quarter of 2025. Notably, there is a significant jump between the fourth quarter of 2022 (5.17) and subsequent quarters, indicating an improvement in short-term liquidity over time.
- Quick Ratio Trend
- The quick ratio follows a similar upward trajectory as the current ratio. Beginning at 3.73 in March 2021, it steadily progresses to 6.36 by March 2025. The ratio experiences small variations but sustains growth, particularly after 2022, where it rises above 5.0 consistently, signaling enhanced ability to cover immediate liabilities without relying on inventory.
- Cash Ratio Trend
- The cash ratio shows growth with a slight initial decline from 3.5 to 3.43 between March and June 2021, followed by a general increasing trend up to 5.61 by March 2025. There is a notable increase after the last quarter of 2022 when the ratio climbs to above 4.4 and steadily improves thereafter. This suggests stronger cash and cash-equivalents availability relative to current liabilities over time.
- Comparative Liquidity Analysis
- Across the three liquidity ratios, a common pattern of improvement is evident. The current and quick ratios demonstrate robust liquidity, both crossing values above 6.0 and 5.5 respectively by early 2025. Meanwhile, the cash ratio, though lower in absolute terms, also indicates stronger cash coverage. This consistent increase in liquidity ratios reflects an increasing buffer against short-term financial obligations, enhancing financial stability.

1 Q1 2025 Calculation
Cash ratio = Total cash assets ÷ Current liabilities
= ÷ =
2 Click competitor name to see calculations.
- Total Cash Assets
- The total cash assets exhibited a consistent upward trend over the analysis period. Starting at approximately 2.34 billion USD at the end of Q1 2021, the cash position fluctuated slightly in the short term but maintained an overall increase. Notable increments were observable particularly from Q1 2023 onward, where cash assets rose markedly from around 2.90 billion USD to over 5.43 billion USD by Q1 2025. This reflects a strong liquidity buildup over four years, with the largest quarterly growth occurring in late 2024 and early 2025.
- Current Liabilities
- Current liabilities showed moderate variation throughout the quarters. Beginning near 668 million USD in Q1 2021, liabilities remained relatively stable with some fluctuations. There was a visible decline during the latter part of 2021, reaching a low of approximately 588 million USD at the end of 2021. However, the trend reversed afterward, with current liabilities increasing significantly from mid-2023 through Q1 2025, peaking close to 996 million USD before a slight decrease to around 967 million USD. This indicates an increasing obligation level toward the end of the period under review.
- Cash Ratio
- The cash ratio, representing the ability to cover current liabilities with cash assets, showed strength and growth over the period. Starting at 3.5 times in Q1 2021, the ratio improved steadily, surpassing 4 times coverage by the end of 2021. The ratio peaked at 5.61 in Q1 2025, indicating a strong liquidity position where cash assets consistently exceeded current liabilities by more than five times. There were minor fluctuations, but the overall trend suggests improved financial safety and a robust buffer against short-term obligations.
- Summary of Trends and Insights
- Over the four-year span, the company demonstrated a significant enhancement of its liquidity profile. The steady increase in total cash assets, combined with a relatively controlled rise in current liabilities, contributed to a strengthening cash ratio. This enhanced liquidity position could provide increased operational flexibility and improved capacity to meet short-term liabilities without financial strain. The trends suggest prudent cash management and possibly growing cash inflows exceeding obligations, which may align with strategic company initiatives or operational growth during the period analyzed.
