Short-term Activity Ratios (Summary)
Palantir Technologies Inc., short-term (operating) activity ratios (quarterly data)
Based on: 10-Q (reporting date: 2026-06-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2026-03-31), 10-K (reporting date: 2025-12-31), 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-09-30), 10-Q (reporting date: 2025-06-30), 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).
An overall decline in operational efficiency regarding short-term asset utilization is evident throughout the reported period. Both receivables and working capital turnover exhibit downward trends, reflecting a slower cycle of converting current assets into revenue and a lengthening of the cash conversion process.
- Receivables Turnover
- A notable decrease in the frequency of receivable collections is observed. The ratio reached a peak of 7.81 in March 2023 before entering a period of sustained decline, dropping to 3.76 by June 2024. While some volatility persists, the ratio remained within a lower range of 3.72 to 4.60 through mid-2026, indicating a reduced efficiency in clearing outstanding customer invoices compared to the 2022-2023 period.
- Working Capital Turnover
- The efficiency of working capital utilization shows a gradual compression. After peaking at 0.81 in September 2022, the ratio trended downward to a low of 0.58 by December 2024. A slight recovery and stabilization occurred during 2025 and 2026, with values fluctuating between 0.59 and 0.64, suggesting that the company is generating less revenue per unit of working capital than it did at the start of the analyzed period.
- Average Receivable Collection Period
- The time required to collect payments from customers has expanded significantly. The collection period fluctuated between 47 and 68 days during 2022 and early 2023 but experienced a marked increase starting in mid-2023. This period frequently exceeded 80 days from 2024 onwards, reaching a maximum of 98 days in March 2026. This trend highlights a systemic slowdown in the collection cycle, directly correlating with the decline in the receivables turnover ratio.

An analysis of the quarterly financial activity reveals a period of aggressive revenue expansion coupled with a systemic decline in receivables turnover efficiency. While top-line growth has accelerated significantly over the observed period, the rate of collection for outstanding invoices has not kept pace, leading to a higher concentration of capital in accounts receivable.
- Revenue Trajectory
- Revenue exhibits a consistent and accelerating upward trend, growing from 446.36 million US dollars in March 2022 to 1.94 billion US dollars by June 2026. The growth profile shifts from steady incremental gains in 2022 and 2023 to more rapid expansion beginning in 2024, with the most pronounced increases occurring between December 2024 and June 2026.
- Accounts Receivable Growth
- Net accounts receivable grew from 256.55 million US dollars in March 2022 to 1.49 billion US dollars by June 2026. This growth trend mirrors the revenue expansion but shows periods of heightened accumulation. A notable surge is observed between March 2024 and June 2024, where receivables increased by approximately 172 million US dollars in a single quarter, suggesting a shift in credit terms or a delay in collections during that window.
- Receivables Turnover Efficiency
- The receivables turnover ratio demonstrates a clear downward trend over the long term. In the first year of the analysis, turnover remained relatively high, peaking at 7.81 in March 2023. However, a marked decline followed, with the ratio dropping to a low of 3.76 by June 2024. From mid-2024 through June 2026, the ratio stabilized at a lower baseline, fluctuating between 3.72 and 4.98. This indicates that the company is now turning over its receivables significantly fewer times per year than it did in 2022.
- Operational Implications
- The inverse relationship between surging revenue and declining turnover suggests that sales growth is being partially funded by extended payment terms or slower collection cycles. The transition from a turnover ratio averaging above 6.0 in early 2022 to an average near 4.0 in 2025 and 2026 implies an increase in the average collection period, which may impact short-term liquidity and operational cash flow despite the strong increase in nominal revenue.

The analysis of the operating activity ratios reveals a period of significant expansion in both the liquidity base and top-line performance, although the efficiency of working capital utilization experienced a period of decline before stabilizing.
- Working Capital Growth
- A consistent and substantial upward trend in working capital is observed, increasing from 2,258,270 thousand USD in March 2022 to 9,563,931 thousand USD by June 2026. This represents a more than fourfold increase over the analyzed period, indicating a significant accumulation of net current assets.
- Revenue Expansion
- Revenue exhibits a strong growth trajectory, rising from 446,357 thousand USD in March 2022 to 1,935,464 thousand USD in June 2026. The acceleration in revenue is particularly notable in the latter half of the period, with values exceeding 1 billion USD starting in June 2025.
- Working Capital Turnover Dynamics
- The working capital turnover ratio demonstrates a non-linear progression. An initial increase is noted from 0.73 in March 2022 to a peak of 0.81 in September 2022. This was followed by a sustained downward trend, reaching a minimum of 0.58 in December 2023. This decline indicates that during this window, working capital grew at a faster rate than the revenue it was intended to support.
- Recent Efficiency Trends
- Starting in early 2024, a gradual recovery in the turnover ratio is observed. The ratio moved from 0.58 in December 2023 to 0.64 by June 2026. This suggests a realignment where revenue growth began to catch up with the expanded working capital base, leading to a slight improvement in the efficiency of short-term asset utilization.

The financial data indicates a progressive deterioration in the efficiency of receivable collections over the analyzed period from March 2022 through June 2026. A general increase in the average collection period is accompanied by a corresponding decline in the receivables turnover ratio, suggesting a slower conversion of accounts receivable into cash.
- Receivables Turnover Trends
- The turnover ratio exhibited a general downward trajectory, moving from a range of 6.42 to 7.38 in 2022 to a lower range of 3.72 to 4.14 by the first half of 2026. Peak efficiency was recorded in March 2023 at 7.81, after which the ratio experienced a notable decline, reaching a period low of 3.72 in March 2026. This trend signifies a reduction in the velocity at which the company recovers its outstanding credit sales.
- Average Receivable Collection Period Analysis
- The average time required to collect receivables has expanded significantly. During the first year of the period, the collection cycle remained relatively contained, fluctuating between 49 and 68 days. A marked upward shift began in 2023, with the collection period consistently exceeding 70 days from September 2023 onward. The period peaked at 97 days in June 2024 and reached a maximum of 98 days in March 2026. The latter stages of the data reflect a stabilized but elevated collection cycle, typically ranging between 79 and 98 days.
- Comparative Operational Efficiency
- Comparing the baseline of March 2022 to the final recorded quarter in June 2026, the average receivable collection period increased from 57 days to 88 days. This expansion correlates with the decrease in the turnover ratio from 6.42 to 4.14. The data reveals a transition from a relatively efficient collection cycle to one characterized by longer payment durations, which may indicate changes in customer credit terms or a decrease in collection effectiveness.
