His name had become synonymous with military brilliance, and he had a knack for unseating more powerful opponents.</p><p><blockquote>织田信长,一个被认为是“伟大的统一者”(或战场上的“魔王”)的武士,正在成为全日本最强大的武士军阀。他的名字已经成为军事才华的代名词,他有能力推翻更强大的对手。</blockquote></p><p> Despite the power of Nobunaga, a faction of the Buddhist faith, called the Ikkō (Single Minded) Ikki (League), began consolidating power, building fortresses and accumulating growing numbers of warrior monks. The Ikkō Ikki ultimately established themselves in the fortress of Ishiyama Hongan-ji (Stone Mountain) in what is modern day Osaka.</p><p><blockquote>尽管信长拥有强大的力量,但佛教中的一个派别——一心一意的一辉(联盟)——开始巩固权力,建造堡垒,积累越来越多的武僧。Ikko一辉最终在今天大阪的石山本愿寺(石山)建立了自己的堡垒。</blockquote></p><p> By the 1560’s Nobunaga had defeated all opposing samurai warlords in Japan, and only the Ikkō Ikki stood in the way of Nobunaga blanketing Japan with his hegemony.</p><p><blockquote>到了16世纪60年代,信长已经击败了日本所有反对的武士军阀,只有一晃一辉阻止了信长用他的霸权覆盖日本。</blockquote></p><p> And so, in 1570 Nobunaga set out for Ishiyama Hongan-ji with 30,000 troops, many of whom were trained with early versions of rifles known as arquebuses. Nobunaga himself was armed with the Dōjigiri Yasutsuna: Japan’s most famous sword. Legend has it that the Dōjigiri Yasutsuna was used to kill the most terrifying demon of its time: the Shuten-Dōji.</p><p><blockquote>因此,1570年,信长带着30,000名士兵出发前往石山本愿寺,其中许多人接受过早期版本的火绳枪的训练。信长本人手持日本最著名的剑——“道吉里安纲”。传说道吉里安纲被用来杀死当时最可怕的恶魔——酒吞道吉。</blockquote></p><p> Despite the considerable weapons at his disposal, Nobunaga’s attack on the fortress of Ishiyama Hongan-ji was unsuccessful. For ten years his forces laid siege to Ishiyama, and for ten years he was repelled. Indeed, when the Ikkō Ikki finally surrendered in 1580, it was at the request of the Imperial Court rather than the fortress being overrun.</p><p><blockquote>尽管信长拥有大量武器,但他对石山本愿寺要塞的进攻并没有成功。他的部队围攻石山十年,他被击退了十年。事实上,1580年一光一号最终投降时,是应朝廷的要求,而不是要塞被攻破。</blockquote></p><p> So how did the Ikkō Ikki fend off the most fearsome shogun in medieval Japan?</p><p><blockquote>那么一晃一辉是如何抵挡住中世纪日本最可怕的幕府将军的呢?</blockquote></p><p> A moat, of course.</p><p><blockquote>当然是护城河。</blockquote></p><p> Flowing around the cathedral fortress of Ishiyama was an intricate labyrinth of moats surmounted by featureless walls. As a consequence of the moats, these walls could not be assaulted with siege towers or tunneled through. They could not be climbed or vaulted.

By combining operational excellence with thoughtful moat-building, Helmer argues, a business may be able to make itself enduringly valuable. The seven powers are: Scale Economies, Network Effects, Counter-Positioning, Switching Costs, Branding, Cornered Resources, and Process Power.</p><p><blockquote>在《7种权力》一书中,汉密尔顿·赫尔默(Hamilton Helmer)写道,企业可以用来指导价值创造工作的七条护城河。赫尔默认为,通过将卓越运营与深思熟虑的护城河建设相结合,企业或许能够使自己具有持久的价值。这七种力量是:规模经济、网络效应、反向定位、转换成本、品牌、垄断资源和流程力量。</blockquote></p><p> Helmer outlines case studies of these moats represented by modern day enterprises. Pixar had the brain trust (Cornered Resource), Nike(NYSE:NKE)can charge more for a pair of shoes than competitors (Brand), and Netflix’s(NASDAQ:NFLX)content costs less to produce as it gains subscribers (Scale Economies).

As you sip your oat milk latte, you begin clicking through Foundry information dashboards, and slowly you explore and experiment with the Foundry platform.

This is the second of Palantir’s moats.</p><p><blockquote>随着Foundry用于识别优化目标,开发人员开始在Foundry之上构建他们自己的应用层,它识别新的用例和新的应用,并添加新的层。Palantir的网络效应表现为数字歌剧蛋糕;随着效用产生效用,不可磨灭的用例堆栈越来越高。这是Palantir的第二条护城河。</blockquote></p><p> I believe there are sector-specific network effects in play as well.

Palantir revealed that a top 5 pharma company is using Foundry to integrate genotyping and lab data across thousands of clinical trials. This experience can be extended to<i>any</i>pharma company, and Palantir’s work with this customer allows foresight into the myriad use cases such companies would benefit from. Foresight here is not intangible; it results in accelerated product expansion at lower cost for each and every additional sector-specific customer who inks a deal with Palantir.</p><p><blockquote>生命科学领域是另一个例子,Palantir将其确定为未来的主要增长领域。Palantir透露,一家排名前5的制药公司正在使用Foundry来整合数千项临床试验的基因分型和实验室数据。这种经验可以推广到<i>任何</i>制药公司,Palantir与该客户的合作使我们能够预见此类公司将从中受益的无数用例。这里的远见不是无形的;对于与Palantir签署协议的每一个额外的特定行业客户来说,它可以以更低的成本加速产品扩展。</blockquote></p><p> This moat is borne out in the numbers, as Palantir’s largest customers continue to expand and renew larger contracts.</p><p><blockquote>随着Palantir最大的客户不断扩张并续签更大的合同,这条护城河在数字上得到了证实。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Palantir's</b> <b>Switching</b> <b>Costs</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的</b> <b>切换</b> <b>成本</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>Customers would incur value loss if they switched to a different product supplier</i></p><p><blockquote><i>如果客户转向不同的产品供应商,他们将遭受价值损失</i></blockquote></p><p> This is perhaps the easiest moat to highlight for Palantir. If you understand machine learning at a basic level, you might intuit how a data analytics company like Palantir would have high Switching Costs.</p><p><blockquote>这也许是Palantir最容易强调的护城河。如果您对机器学习有基本的了解,您可能会直觉到像Palantir这样的数据分析公司会有很高的转换成本。</blockquote></p><p> I believe there is a<i>point of no return</i>for customers somewhere in the Expand phase of the sales cycle. At this point, Foundry use cases are multiplying, efficiencies are being realized, and the software is becoming less a service and more the central operating system of the enterprise. In a given organization, petabytes of data have been collated by Palantir and refined into actionable processes, and each day Foundry knows the organizational needs a little bit better. Remember, this is likely 18 months into a customer relationship, and Foundry has become an everyday analytics tool in the company workflow.</p><p><blockquote>我相信有个<i>不归路</i>对于处于销售周期扩展阶段的客户。在这一点上,代工用例正在成倍增加,效率正在实现,软件正在变得越来越少的服务,而更多的是企业的中央操作系统。在给定的组织中,Palantir会整理数PB的数据并将其提炼为可操作的流程,Foundry每天都会更好地了解组织的需求。请记住,这可能是客户关系的18个月,Foundry已成为公司工作流程中的日常分析工具。</blockquote></p><p> I believe this is the point of no return, because the alternative here is unimaginable. First and foremost, who is this alternative software provider? Bueller? Even if there was a comparable service to Foundry, and there’s not, you would be starting entirely over again. Enterprises want to accelerate, no, hurtle towards a digital, AI-driven future. Try explaining to senior management we have to pull the plug 18 months in on Foundry because the price tag is too steep. You would have to go back to Day 0 with data collection, analysis and refining. It would be a duplication of effort, time and expense of the greatest scale. Somewhere in Expand you’re in too deep – if you turn off the lights, the ice cream melts.</p><p><blockquote>我相信这是不归路,因为这里的替代方案是不可想象的。首先,这个替代软件提供商是谁?布勒?即使有类似于Foundry的服务,但没有,你也要从头再来。企业希望加速,不,奔向数字化、人工智能驱动的未来。尝试向高级管理层解释,我们必须在18个月内停止代工业务,因为价格太高。您必须回到第0天进行数据收集、分析和提炼。这将是最大规模的努力、时间和费用的重复。在Expand的某个地方,你陷得太深了——如果你关灯,冰淇淋就会融化。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir’s largest contracts have been customers of Palantir the longest. This is not coincidence. It is a moat, Palantir's third. Switching costs only increase as customers become deeper users of Palantir products.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir最大的合同是Palantir最长的客户。这不是巧合。这是Palantir的第三条护城河。随着客户成为Palantir产品的深度用户,转换成本只会增加。</blockquote></p><p> Commodity software services will never enjoy the strategic advantage Palantir owns.

The U.S. Army released a solicitation seeking bids to build the Distributed Common Ground System-Army (DCGS-A). This would be an integrated data analytics framework that could gather data from numerous sources, share data seamlessly across a suite of analytical tools and provide easy-to use visualization for soldiers in the field. Sound familiar? Sounds exactly like Palantir’s Gotham product to me.</p><p><blockquote>对于哥谭市(政府)来说,现任<i>什么</i>政府;美国。陆军、国防部、中央情报局等。让我们把时钟拨回到2015年。美国。陆军发布了一份招标书,寻求建造分布式通用地面系统-陆军(DCGS-A)。这将是一个集成的数据分析框架,可以从众多来源收集数据,跨一套分析工具无缝共享数据,并为战场上的士兵提供易于使用的可视化。听起来很熟悉?对我来说,这听起来就像Palantir的Gotham产品。</blockquote></p><p> DCGS-A was actually an internal Army project over a decade in the making at a development cost of $3 Billion. Palantir entered into the bidding at a much lower cost, but the Army elected to continue its own internal development. Palantir ultimately filed a lawsuit against the Army, arguing that Gotham provided the exact services the Army was attempting to build, and at a fraction of the cost. In October of 2016, a federal judge ruled in favor of Palantir (§ 2377), and established the precedent that the government must procure commercial services and products to the maximum practical extent. This was appealed by the Army, but later held up in the U.S. Court of Appeals in 2018.</p><p><blockquote>DCGS-A实际上是一个酝酿了十多年的陆军内部项目,开发成本为30亿美元。Palantir以低得多的成本参与了竞标,但陆军选择继续自己的内部开发。Palantir最终对陆军提起诉讼,辩称哥谭市提供了陆军试图建设的确切服务,而且成本只是陆军试图建设的一小部分。2016年10月,一名联邦法官做出了有利于Palantir(2377)的裁决,并开创了政府必须在最大实际范围内采购商业服务和产品的先例。陆军对此提出上诉,但后来于2018年在美国上诉法院维持原判。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/70fc6c13c9c0d3ca0b559fd48bdff1da\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"457\"><span>Source:Palantir S-1 Filing</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源:Palantir S-1文件</span></p></blockquote></p><p> Palantir’s landmark lawsuit against the Army surprisingly resulted in a deepening relationship with the U.S. Government.

The U.S. government, for all its influence and power, either chose to underinvest in data analytics, moved too slowly, or underestimated the pace of innovation in the private sector. It was probably some of each.</p><p><blockquote>与现有银行类似,规模也会产生官僚主义和惰性。尽管美国政府拥有巨大的影响力和权力,但它要么选择在数据分析方面投资不足,行动过于缓慢,要么低估了私营部门的创新步伐。可能每种都有一些。</blockquote></p><p> These same competitive issues are manifesting in the private sector. Massive enterprise software behemoths like Oracle (ORCL) and SAP (SAP) have spent the past decade building out sales teams for ‘good enough’ products. Meanwhile, Palantir has been obsessively proliferating and refining their offerings (more on this later) without a recognizable salesforce. Palantir’s entire focus over the past 18 years was engineering great product, and the incumbents are just now sensing the deep, almost planetary groan of enterprise software culture shifting, the jeremiad of an opportunity missed.</p><p><blockquote>这些同样的竞争问题也出现在私营部门。甲骨文(ORCL)和SAP(SAP)等大型企业软件巨头在过去十年里一直在为“足够好”的产品建立销售团队。与此同时,Palantir在没有知名销售人员的情况下一直在痴迷地扩大和完善他们的产品(稍后将详细介绍)。Palantir在过去18年里的全部重点是设计伟大的产品,而现有企业现在刚刚感受到企业软件文化转变的深刻、几乎是全球性的呻吟,以及错失机会的哀叹。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir is deepening its Counter-Positioning moat by investing in several young, disruptive companies in the data analytics space. In my prior Palantir article,Palantir’s SPACs: Do You See What Karp Sees?, I outlined Palantir’s investments in these companies as opportunities to expand market reach and build a valuable portfolio.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir正在通过投资数据分析领域几家年轻、颠覆性的公司来深化其反定位护城河。在我之前的Palantir文章中,Palantir的SPAC:你看到卡普所看到的了吗?,我将Palantir对这些公司的投资概述为扩大市场覆盖范围和建立有价值的投资组合的机会。</blockquote></p><p> I have since added another layer to this analysis. These investment companies are not just expanding Palantir’s market reach, they are lighthouses for Palantir’s products, emissaries that may evince the velocity Foundry contributes to product roadmap and go to market pace. By partnering with these companies, Palantir is cementing its technological leadership and demonstrating commitment to the innovative product DNA its reputation is built around.</p><p><blockquote>从那以后,我在这个分析中又增加了一层。这些投资公司不仅扩大了Palantir的市场影响力,而且还是Palantir产品的灯塔,是可能表明velocity Foundry对产品路线图和上市步伐做出贡献的使者。通过与这些公司合作,Palantir巩固了其技术领先地位,并展示了对其声誉所依据的创新产品DNA的承诺。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> <b>Palantir's</b> <b>Cornered Resources</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的</b> <b>被垄断的资源</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>Preferential access at attractive terms to a coveted asset that can independently enhance value</i></p><p><blockquote><i>以有吸引力的条款优先获得可以独立增值的令人垂涎的资产</i></blockquote></p><p> Palantir hoards two resources that confer a remarkable advantage over its competitors: technology and talent.

His name had become synonymous with military brilliance, and he had a knack for unseating more powerful opponents.</p><p><blockquote>织田信长,一个被认为是“伟大的统一者”(或战场上的“魔王”)的武士,正在成为全日本最强大的武士军阀。他的名字已经成为军事才华的代名词,他有能力推翻更强大的对手。</blockquote></p><p> Despite the power of Nobunaga, a faction of the Buddhist faith, called the Ikkō (Single Minded) Ikki (League), began consolidating power, building fortresses and accumulating growing numbers of warrior monks. The Ikkō Ikki ultimately established themselves in the fortress of Ishiyama Hongan-ji (Stone Mountain) in what is modern day Osaka.</p><p><blockquote>尽管信长拥有强大的力量,但佛教中的一个派别——一心一意的一辉(联盟)——开始巩固权力,建造堡垒,积累越来越多的武僧。Ikko一辉最终在今天大阪的石山本愿寺(石山)建立了自己的堡垒。</blockquote></p><p> By the 1560’s Nobunaga had defeated all opposing samurai warlords in Japan, and only the Ikkō Ikki stood in the way of Nobunaga blanketing Japan with his hegemony.</p><p><blockquote>到了16世纪60年代,信长已经击败了日本所有反对的武士军阀,只有一晃一辉阻止了信长用他的霸权覆盖日本。</blockquote></p><p> And so, in 1570 Nobunaga set out for Ishiyama Hongan-ji with 30,000 troops, many of whom were trained with early versions of rifles known as arquebuses. Nobunaga himself was armed with the Dōjigiri Yasutsuna: Japan’s most famous sword. Legend has it that the Dōjigiri Yasutsuna was used to kill the most terrifying demon of its time: the Shuten-Dōji.</p><p><blockquote>因此,1570年,信长带着30,000名士兵出发前往石山本愿寺,其中许多人接受过早期版本的火绳枪的训练。信长本人手持日本最著名的剑——“道吉里安纲”。传说道吉里安纲被用来杀死当时最可怕的恶魔——酒吞道吉。</blockquote></p><p> Despite the considerable weapons at his disposal, Nobunaga’s attack on the fortress of Ishiyama Hongan-ji was unsuccessful. For ten years his forces laid siege to Ishiyama, and for ten years he was repelled. Indeed, when the Ikkō Ikki finally surrendered in 1580, it was at the request of the Imperial Court rather than the fortress being overrun.</p><p><blockquote>尽管信长拥有大量武器,但他对石山本愿寺要塞的进攻并没有成功。他的部队围攻石山十年,他被击退了十年。事实上,1580年一光一号最终投降时,是应朝廷的要求,而不是要塞被攻破。</blockquote></p><p> So how did the Ikkō Ikki fend off the most fearsome shogun in medieval Japan?</p><p><blockquote>那么一晃一辉是如何抵挡住中世纪日本最可怕的幕府将军的呢?</blockquote></p><p> A moat, of course.</p><p><blockquote>当然是护城河。</blockquote></p><p> Flowing around the cathedral fortress of Ishiyama was an intricate labyrinth of moats surmounted by featureless walls. As a consequence of the moats, these walls could not be assaulted with siege towers or tunneled through. They could not be climbed or vaulted. It was unassailable.</p><p><blockquote>环绕石山大教堂要塞的是一条错综复杂的护城河,上面是毫无特色的城墙。由于有了护城河,这些城墙不能被攻城塔或隧道攻击。它们不能被攀爬或跨越。它无懈可击。</blockquote></p><p> In reference to this medieval structure that could provide defense against attackers for 10 years or more, the word “moat” has since become a common measure of a business’ longevity. I appreciate when history makes sense.</p><p><blockquote>关于这种可以防御攻击者10年或更长时间的中世纪结构,“护城河”一词从此成为衡量企业寿命的常用指标。我欣赏历史有意义的时候。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Palantir’s Seven Moats</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的七大护城河</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>Growth is easy to measure, but durability isn’t. If you focus on near-term growth above all else, you miss the most important question you should be asking: will this business still be around a decade from now? Numbers alone won’t tell you the answer; instead you must think critically about the qualitative characteristics of your business.”</i> -Peter Thiel, Founder & Chairman, Palantir</p><p><blockquote><i>增长很容易衡量,但持久性却不容易。如果你把短期增长看得比什么都重要,你就错过了你应该问的最重要的问题:十年后,这项业务还会存在吗?光靠数字是不会告诉你答案的;相反,你必须批判性地思考你的业务的质量特征。”</i>—Peter Thiel,Palantir创始人兼董事长</blockquote></p><p> In 7 Powers, Hamilton Helmer writes about the seven moats a business may employ to guide value-creation efforts. By combining operational excellence with thoughtful moat-building, Helmer argues, a business may be able to make itself enduringly valuable. The seven powers are: Scale Economies, Network Effects, Counter-Positioning, Switching Costs, Branding, Cornered Resources, and Process Power.</p><p><blockquote>在《7种权力》一书中,汉密尔顿·赫尔默(Hamilton Helmer)写道,企业可以用来指导价值创造工作的七条护城河。赫尔默认为,通过将卓越运营与深思熟虑的护城河建设相结合,企业或许能够使自己具有持久的价值。这七种力量是:规模经济、网络效应、反向定位、转换成本、品牌、垄断资源和流程力量。</blockquote></p><p> Helmer outlines case studies of these moats represented by modern day enterprises. Pixar had the brain trust (Cornered Resource), Nike(NYSE:NKE)can charge more for a pair of shoes than competitors (Brand), and Netflix’s(NASDAQ:NFLX)content costs less to produce as it gains subscribers (Scale Economies). The most iconic companies in the world have two, maybe three moats.</p><p><blockquote>赫尔默概述了以现代企业为代表的这些护城河的案例研究。Pixar拥有智囊团(被垄断的资源),Nike(纽约证券交易所股票代码:NKE)可以为一双鞋收取比竞争对手(品牌)更高的费用,而Netflix(纳斯达克股票代码:NFLX)的内容制作成本随着订户的增加而降低(规模经济)。世界上最具标志性的公司有两条,也许三条护城河。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir (PLTR) has all seven.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir(PLTR)拥有全部七项。</blockquote></p><p> I know that sounds crazy because Palantir went public nine months ago, and yes, it remains unprofitable. Yes, the stock based compensation is corpulent. Yes, revenue is concentrated and yes, valuation is optimistic. Yes to all of it.</p><p><blockquote>我知道这听起来很疯狂,因为Palantir九个月前上市,是的,它仍然没有盈利。是的,基于股票的薪酬是丰厚的。是的,收入集中,是的,估值乐观。对所有这些都是肯定的。</blockquote></p><p> No take backs. Palantir has seven moats. Let me show you.</p><p><blockquote>没有收回。Palantir有七条护城河。让我给你看看。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Palantir's Scale Economies</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的规模经济</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>The quality of declining unit costs as volume increases</i></p><p><blockquote><i>随着数量的增加,单位成本下降的质量</i></blockquote></p><p> Palantir’s sales cycles are perhaps the most misunderstood aspect of their business model. Naysayers argue Palantir is a services company. Bag holders who bought at $35/share argue Palantir is a SaaS company. They’re both right.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir的销售周期可能是其商业模式中最被误解的方面。反对者认为Palantir是一家服务公司。以每股35美元的价格买入的购物者认为Palantir是一家SaaS公司。他们都是对的。</blockquote></p><p> Gotham and Foundry drive high margin, recurring software contracts for government and commercial customers alike. Meanwhile, Palantir parachutes in technical consultants to expand and mature these contracts. Palantir describes this sales cycle as “Acquire, Expand, and Scale.”</p><p><blockquote>Gotham和Foundry为政府和商业客户提供高利润的经常性软件合同。与此同时,Palantir引进技术顾问来扩大和成熟这些合同。Palantir将这个销售周期描述为“收购、扩张和规模化”。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Acquire</b></p><p><blockquote><b>获得</b></blockquote></p><p></p><p> While Palantir<i>is</i>a software company, it stands quite apart from others who share this label. For example, there are some differences between selling a software like Zoom (ZM) to an enterprise, and selling Foundry. As of Q1 2021, Palantir reported $8.1 million in annual revenue per customer. This staggering product revenue belies the value of Palantir’s offerings, but also underscores the complexity of their sales cycle.</p><p><blockquote>而Palantir<i>是</i>作为一家软件公司,它与其他分享这个标签的公司截然不同。例如,向企业销售Zoom(ZM)这样的软件和销售Foundry之间存在一些差异。截至2021年第一季度,Palantir报告每位客户的年收入为810万美元。这种惊人的产品收入掩盖了Palantir产品的价值,但也凸显了其销售周期的复杂性。</blockquote></p><p> In Palantir’s S-1, Acquire customers are described as those enjoying short-term pilot deployments of Palantir’s technology. Palantir operates these accounts at a loss, and notes this selling phase generally lasts 6-9 months on average.</p><p><blockquote>在Palantir的S-1中,Acquire客户被描述为享受Palantir技术短期试点部署的客户。Palantir亏本运营这些账户,并指出这一销售阶段通常平均持续6-9个月。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Expand</b></p><p><blockquote><b>扩大</b></blockquote></p><p> The second phase, Expand, is characterized by<i>value building.</i>Palantir focuses on understanding the customer’s challenges and delivering against them. These are customers who provide larger revenue contracts to Palantir, but also generally represent negative contribution margins.</p><p><blockquote>第二阶段,扩展,其特征是<i>价值建设。</i>Palantir专注于了解客户的挑战并应对这些挑战。这些客户向Palantir提供较大收入合同,但通常也代表负贡献利润率。</blockquote></p><p> I know, two stages in a row of unprofitable product delivery. However, this stage is marked by an almost viral expansion of Palantir’s personalized value creation, informed by 6 – 9 months of data ingestion and customer feedback during the Acquire phase. It is in this stage that Palantir’s offerings begin to merit the descriptor<i>bespoke.</i></p><p><blockquote>我知道,连续两个阶段的无利可图的产品交付。然而,这一阶段的特点是Palantir的个性化价值创造几乎呈病毒式扩张,这得益于收购阶段6-9个月的数据摄取和客户反馈。正是在这个阶段,Palantir的产品开始配得上这个描述<i>定制的。</i></blockquote></p><p> Expand is fueled by CEO Alex Karp himself, who, prior to the pandemic, spent 250 days a year visiting clients in person. This is perhaps the most ineffaceable contribution of Karp; the CEO served as a salesforce for a company that never had one. Palantir’s customers are whales. Karp is Captain Ahab.</p><p><blockquote>Expand是由首席执行官Alex Karp本人推动的,在大流行之前,他每年有250天亲自拜访客户。这也许是卡普最不可磨灭的贡献;这位首席执行官为一家从未有过销售人员的公司担任销售人员。Palantir的客户是鲸鱼。卡普是亚哈船长。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Scale</b></p><p><blockquote><b>比例</b></blockquote></p><p> The word “scale” is used a full 44 times in thePalantir S-1, and Palantir defines Scale customers as those contributing mature contracts with a positive contribution margin. During Scale, we witness a reversal of Palantir’s unit economics. As customer accounts mature, Palantir’s investment costs decrease. Customers can now operate independently, building their own applications on top of Foundry or Gotham. This results in new use cases, less services fees, and a greater proportion of high-margin recurring revenue.</p><p><blockquote>“规模”一词在Palantir S-1中被使用了整整44次,Palantir将规模客户定义为那些贡献具有正边际的成熟合同的客户。在规模化过程中,我们见证了Palantir单位经济效益的逆转。随着客户账户的成熟,Palantir的投资成本会降低。客户现在可以独立操作,在Foundry或Gotham之上构建自己的应用程序。这会带来新的用例、更少的服务费以及更大比例的高利润经常性收入。</blockquote></p><p> It is in the Scale phase of our partnerships with customers that we generally see contribution margin on particular accounts improve. In 2019, we generated $565.7 million in revenue from customers in the Scale phase, with a contribution margin of 55%.

As you sip your oat milk latte, you begin clicking through Foundry information dashboards, and slowly you explore and experiment with the Foundry platform. You realize you can run data-analytics on AI-infused applications, and begin identifying inefficiencies, which are shared with your team and supervisors (making you look quite brilliant).</p><p><blockquote>想象一下,你是奥克兰银行的一名穿着毛衣背心的软件工程师,刚刚同意进行代工试点。当您啜饮燕麦牛奶拿铁时,您开始点击Foundry信息仪表板,慢慢地探索和试验Foundry平台。你意识到你可以在注入人工智能的应用程序上运行数据分析,并开始识别效率低下的地方,这些地方与你的团队和主管分享(让你看起来很聪明)。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> As Foundry is used to identify optimization targets, developers begin building their own application layer on top of Foundry, which identifies new use cases and new applications, and new layers are added. Palantir’s network effects manifest as a digital opera cake; an indelible stack of use cases rising ever higher as utility begets utility. This is the second of Palantir’s moats.</p><p><blockquote>随着Foundry用于识别优化目标,开发人员开始在Foundry之上构建他们自己的应用层,它识别新的用例和新的应用,并添加新的层。Palantir的网络效应表现为数字歌剧蛋糕;随着效用产生效用,不可磨灭的用例堆栈越来越高。这是Palantir的第二条护城河。</blockquote></p><p> I believe there are sector-specific network effects in play as well. How much different would Palantir’s software deployment be for Boeing(NYSE:BA)as compared to current Palantir customer Airbus(OTCPK:EADSF)? Not much, I'd wager.</p><p><blockquote>我相信也有特定行业的网络效应在起作用。与Palantir当前客户空中客车公司(OTCPK:EADSF)相比,波音公司(NYSE:BA)的Palantir软件部署有多大不同?我敢打赌,不多。</blockquote></p><p> The Life Sciences sector, which Palantir identified as a major growth area moving forward is another example. Palantir revealed that a top 5 pharma company is using Foundry to integrate genotyping and lab data across thousands of clinical trials. This experience can be extended to<i>any</i>pharma company, and Palantir’s work with this customer allows foresight into the myriad use cases such companies would benefit from. Foresight here is not intangible; it results in accelerated product expansion at lower cost for each and every additional sector-specific customer who inks a deal with Palantir.</p><p><blockquote>生命科学领域是另一个例子,Palantir将其确定为未来的主要增长领域。Palantir透露,一家排名前5的制药公司正在使用Foundry来整合数千项临床试验的基因分型和实验室数据。这种经验可以推广到<i>任何</i>制药公司,Palantir与该客户的合作使我们能够预见此类公司将从中受益的无数用例。这里的远见不是无形的;对于与Palantir签署协议的每一个额外的特定行业客户来说,它可以以更低的成本加速产品扩展。</blockquote></p><p> This moat is borne out in the numbers, as Palantir’s largest customers continue to expand and renew larger contracts.</p><p><blockquote>随着Palantir最大的客户不断扩张并续签更大的合同,这条护城河在数字上得到了证实。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Palantir's</b> <b>Switching</b> <b>Costs</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的</b> <b>切换</b> <b>成本</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>Customers would incur value loss if they switched to a different product supplier</i></p><p><blockquote><i>如果客户转向不同的产品供应商,他们将遭受价值损失</i></blockquote></p><p> This is perhaps the easiest moat to highlight for Palantir. If you understand machine learning at a basic level, you might intuit how a data analytics company like Palantir would have high Switching Costs.</p><p><blockquote>这也许是Palantir最容易强调的护城河。如果您对机器学习有基本的了解,您可能会直觉到像Palantir这样的数据分析公司会有很高的转换成本。</blockquote></p><p> I believe there is a<i>point of no return</i>for customers somewhere in the Expand phase of the sales cycle. At this point, Foundry use cases are multiplying, efficiencies are being realized, and the software is becoming less a service and more the central operating system of the enterprise. In a given organization, petabytes of data have been collated by Palantir and refined into actionable processes, and each day Foundry knows the organizational needs a little bit better. Remember, this is likely 18 months into a customer relationship, and Foundry has become an everyday analytics tool in the company workflow.</p><p><blockquote>我相信有个<i>不归路</i>对于处于销售周期扩展阶段的客户。在这一点上,代工用例正在成倍增加,效率正在实现,软件正在变得越来越少的服务,而更多的是企业的中央操作系统。在给定的组织中,Palantir会整理数PB的数据并将其提炼为可操作的流程,Foundry每天都会更好地了解组织的需求。请记住,这可能是客户关系的18个月,Foundry已成为公司工作流程中的日常分析工具。</blockquote></p><p> I believe this is the point of no return, because the alternative here is unimaginable. First and foremost, who is this alternative software provider? Bueller? Even if there was a comparable service to Foundry, and there’s not, you would be starting entirely over again. Enterprises want to accelerate, no, hurtle towards a digital, AI-driven future. Try explaining to senior management we have to pull the plug 18 months in on Foundry because the price tag is too steep. You would have to go back to Day 0 with data collection, analysis and refining. It would be a duplication of effort, time and expense of the greatest scale. Somewhere in Expand you’re in too deep – if you turn off the lights, the ice cream melts.</p><p><blockquote>我相信这是不归路,因为这里的替代方案是不可想象的。首先,这个替代软件提供商是谁?布勒?即使有类似于Foundry的服务,但没有,你也要从头再来。企业希望加速,不,奔向数字化、人工智能驱动的未来。尝试向高级管理层解释,我们必须在18个月内停止代工业务,因为价格太高。您必须回到第0天进行数据收集、分析和提炼。这将是最大规模的努力、时间和费用的重复。在Expand的某个地方,你陷得太深了——如果你关灯,冰淇淋就会融化。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir’s largest contracts have been customers of Palantir the longest. This is not coincidence. It is a moat, Palantir's third. Switching costs only increase as customers become deeper users of Palantir products.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir最大的合同是Palantir最长的客户。这不是巧合。这是Palantir的第三条护城河。随着客户成为Palantir产品的深度用户,转换成本只会增加。</blockquote></p><p> Commodity software services will never enjoy the strategic advantage Palantir owns. Would it really be that big of a deal if your company switched from Skype to Zoom?</p><p><blockquote>商品软件服务永远不会享有Palantir所拥有的战略优势。如果你的公司从Skype转向Zoom,这真的有那么大的问题吗?</blockquote></p><p> <b>Palantir'sBranding</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的品牌</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>The durable attribution of higher value to an objectively identical offering that arises from historical information about the seller</i></p><p><blockquote><i>从卖方的历史信息中产生的客观上相同的产品的更高价值的持久属性</i></blockquote></p><p> The Branding moat is easier to understand in the context of basic consumer products, like Coca-Cola(NYSE:KO).

Hypothetically, however, let’s assume such a company exists.</p><p><blockquote>在数据分析软件中进行这种比较是一个挑战,因为我不相信Palantir有相同的产品。然而,假设一下,让我们假设这样一家公司存在。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir has built an iconic brand since its inception in 2003. Over the past 18 years, Palantir has been funded by the CIA, linked to the identification and killing of Osama Bin Laden, sued the U.S. Army and won, and has carefully curated a narrative of intrigue and ostensibly supernatural analytics capabilities. But this company image is not the Branding moat I aim to highlight here.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir自2003年成立以来已打造了一个标志性品牌。起诉美国,过去18年来,Palantir一直由中央情报局资助,与识别和击毙奥萨马·本·拉登有关。军队和胜利,并精心策划了一个阴谋和表面上超自然的分析能力的叙事。但这种公司形象并不是我在这里要强调的品牌护城河。</blockquote></p><p> This is the publicly traded company the<i>U.S. government hires to manage their nuclear program</i>. This is the company the NHS hires to manage PPE inventory and vaccine rollout during the greatest public health crisis of our time. Over the past two decades, Palantir has a track record of coming through in the most extreme circumstances our country faces. To the U.S. government, I would argue, there is no software company that better epitomizes reliability and security than Palantir. That is an enduring brand.</p><p><blockquote>这是一家上市公司<i>美国政府雇佣员工来管理他们的核计划</i>.这是NHS雇佣的公司,在我们这个时代最大的公共卫生危机期间管理个人防护设备库存和疫苗推广。在过去的二十年里,Palantir拥有在我国面临的最极端情况下挺身而出的记录。我认为,对于美国政府来说,没有哪家软件公司比Palantir更能体现可靠性和安全性。这是一个经久不衰的品牌。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> The below press releases were announced over the past two months<i>alone</i>:</p><p><blockquote>以下是过去两个月发布的新闻稿<i>单独的</i>:</blockquote></p><p> <ul> <li>CDC Renews Partnership with Palantir for Disease Monitoring and Outbreak Response</li> <li>Palantir Awarded $111m Contract to Provide Mission Command Platform for the United States Special Operations Command</li> <li>Palantir and Space Force Expand Partnership</li> </ul> I don’t care how bearish you may be about Palantir’s valuation.

This is the Counter-Positioning moat.</p><p><blockquote>反向定位是一条独特的护城河,我认为数字钱包领域的Square(SQ)最能代表这一点。现有银行的行动完全是为了对抗Square的举措,部分原因是监管,部分原因是竞争被低估,但主要是因为提供数字钱包解决方案可能会蚕食银行的核心产品。这就是反定位护城河。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir’s Counter-Positioning moat is perhaps less obvious. First off, who is the incumbent? Palantir’s technology is so disruptive, it can be challenging to construe a natural competitor.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir的反向定位护城河可能不太明显。首先,谁是现任者?Palantir的技术极具颠覆性,因此很难理解天然竞争对手。</blockquote></p><p> For Gotham (Gov’t), the incumbent<i>was</i>the government; the U.S. Army, the DoD, the CIA, etc. Let’s wind back the clocks to 2015. The U.S. Army released a solicitation seeking bids to build the Distributed Common Ground System-Army (DCGS-A). This would be an integrated data analytics framework that could gather data from numerous sources, share data seamlessly across a suite of analytical tools and provide easy-to use visualization for soldiers in the field. Sound familiar? Sounds exactly like Palantir’s Gotham product to me.</p><p><blockquote>对于哥谭市(政府)来说,现任<i>什么</i>政府;美国。陆军、国防部、中央情报局等。让我们把时钟拨回到2015年。美国。陆军发布了一份招标书,寻求建造分布式通用地面系统-陆军(DCGS-A)。这将是一个集成的数据分析框架,可以从众多来源收集数据,跨一套分析工具无缝共享数据,并为战场上的士兵提供易于使用的可视化。听起来很熟悉?对我来说,这听起来就像Palantir的Gotham产品。</blockquote></p><p> DCGS-A was actually an internal Army project over a decade in the making at a development cost of $3 Billion. Palantir entered into the bidding at a much lower cost, but the Army elected to continue its own internal development. Palantir ultimately filed a lawsuit against the Army, arguing that Gotham provided the exact services the Army was attempting to build, and at a fraction of the cost. In October of 2016, a federal judge ruled in favor of Palantir (§ 2377), and established the precedent that the government must procure commercial services and products to the maximum practical extent. This was appealed by the Army, but later held up in the U.S. Court of Appeals in 2018.</p><p><blockquote>DCGS-A实际上是一个酝酿了十多年的陆军内部项目,开发成本为30亿美元。Palantir以低得多的成本参与了竞标,但陆军选择继续自己的内部开发。Palantir最终对陆军提起诉讼,辩称哥谭市提供了陆军试图建设的确切服务,而且成本只是陆军试图建设的一小部分。2016年10月,一名联邦法官做出了有利于Palantir(2377)的裁决,并开创了政府必须在最大实际范围内采购商业服务和产品的先例。陆军对此提出上诉,但后来于2018年在美国上诉法院维持原判。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/70fc6c13c9c0d3ca0b559fd48bdff1da\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"457\"><span>Source:Palantir S-1 Filing</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源:Palantir S-1文件</span></p></blockquote></p><p> Palantir’s landmark lawsuit against the Army surprisingly resulted in a deepening relationship with the U.S. Government. In the year following the lawsuit, Palantir’s Army revenue equaled the sum of the eleven preceding years.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir针对陆军的里程碑式诉讼出人意料地加深了与美国政府的关系。诉讼发生后的一年,Palantir的陆军收入相当于前11年的总和。</blockquote></p><p> Similar to incumbent banks, there is something about size that begets bureaucracy and inertia. The U.S. government, for all its influence and power, either chose to underinvest in data analytics, moved too slowly, or underestimated the pace of innovation in the private sector. It was probably some of each.</p><p><blockquote>与现有银行类似,规模也会产生官僚主义和惰性。尽管美国政府拥有巨大的影响力和权力,但它要么选择在数据分析方面投资不足,行动过于缓慢,要么低估了私营部门的创新步伐。可能每种都有一些。</blockquote></p><p> These same competitive issues are manifesting in the private sector. Massive enterprise software behemoths like Oracle (ORCL) and SAP (SAP) have spent the past decade building out sales teams for ‘good enough’ products. Meanwhile, Palantir has been obsessively proliferating and refining their offerings (more on this later) without a recognizable salesforce. Palantir’s entire focus over the past 18 years was engineering great product, and the incumbents are just now sensing the deep, almost planetary groan of enterprise software culture shifting, the jeremiad of an opportunity missed.</p><p><blockquote>这些同样的竞争问题也出现在私营部门。甲骨文(ORCL)和SAP(SAP)等大型企业软件巨头在过去十年里一直在为“足够好”的产品建立销售团队。与此同时,Palantir在没有知名销售人员的情况下一直在痴迷地扩大和完善他们的产品(稍后将详细介绍)。Palantir在过去18年里的全部重点是设计伟大的产品,而现有企业现在刚刚感受到企业软件文化转变的深刻、几乎是全球性的呻吟,以及错失机会的哀叹。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir is deepening its Counter-Positioning moat by investing in several young, disruptive companies in the data analytics space. In my prior Palantir article,Palantir’s SPACs: Do You See What Karp Sees?, I outlined Palantir’s investments in these companies as opportunities to expand market reach and build a valuable portfolio.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir正在通过投资数据分析领域几家年轻、颠覆性的公司来深化其反定位护城河。在我之前的Palantir文章中,Palantir的SPAC:你看到卡普所看到的了吗?,我将Palantir对这些公司的投资概述为扩大市场覆盖范围和建立有价值的投资组合的机会。</blockquote></p><p> I have since added another layer to this analysis. These investment companies are not just expanding Palantir’s market reach, they are lighthouses for Palantir’s products, emissaries that may evince the velocity Foundry contributes to product roadmap and go to market pace. By partnering with these companies, Palantir is cementing its technological leadership and demonstrating commitment to the innovative product DNA its reputation is built around.</p><p><blockquote>从那以后,我在这个分析中又增加了一层。这些投资公司不仅扩大了Palantir的市场影响力,而且还是Palantir产品的灯塔,是可能表明velocity Foundry对产品路线图和上市步伐做出贡献的使者。通过与这些公司合作,Palantir巩固了其技术领先地位,并展示了对其声誉所依据的创新产品DNA的承诺。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> <b>Palantir's</b> <b>Cornered Resources</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的</b> <b>被垄断的资源</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>Preferential access at attractive terms to a coveted asset that can independently enhance value</i></p><p><blockquote><i>以有吸引力的条款优先获得可以独立增值的令人垂涎的资产</i></blockquote></p><p> Palantir hoards two resources that confer a remarkable advantage over its competitors: technology and talent.

Palantir has all seven.\nThese moats will allow Palantir to build an enduringly impactful and profitable business.\n\nScott Olson/Getty Images\nNewsIntroduction: On Building a Dynasty\nIn the mid 16thcentury, Japan was engaged in all-out civil war.\nOda Nobunaga, a samurai regarded as the “Great Unifier” (or “Devil king,” on the battlefield) was emerging as the most powerful samurai warlord in all of Japan. His name had become synonymous with military brilliance, and he had a knack for unseating more powerful opponents.\nDespite the power of Nobunaga, a faction of the Buddhist faith, called the Ikkō (Single Minded) Ikki (League), began consolidating power, building fortresses and accumulating growing numbers of warrior monks. The Ikkō Ikki ultimately established themselves in the fortress of Ishiyama Hongan-ji (Stone Mountain) in what is modern day Osaka.\nBy the 1560’s Nobunaga had defeated all opposing samurai warlords in Japan, and only the Ikkō Ikki stood in the way of Nobunaga blanketing Japan with his hegemony.\nAnd so, in 1570 Nobunaga set out for Ishiyama Hongan-ji with 30,000 troops, many of whom were trained with early versions of rifles known as arquebuses. Nobunaga himself was armed with the Dōjigiri Yasutsuna: Japan’s most famous sword. Legend has it that the Dōjigiri Yasutsuna was used to kill the most terrifying demon of its time: the Shuten-Dōji.\nDespite the considerable weapons at his disposal, Nobunaga’s attack on the fortress of Ishiyama Hongan-ji was unsuccessful. For ten years his forces laid siege to Ishiyama, and for ten years he was repelled. Indeed, when the Ikkō Ikki finally surrendered in 1580, it was at the request of the Imperial Court rather than the fortress being overrun.\nSo how did the Ikkō Ikki fend off the most fearsome shogun in medieval Japan?\nA moat, of course.\nFlowing around the cathedral fortress of Ishiyama was an intricate labyrinth of moats surmounted by featureless walls. As a consequence of the moats, these walls could not be assaulted with siege towers or tunneled through. They could not be climbed or vaulted. It was unassailable.\nIn reference to this medieval structure that could provide defense against attackers for 10 years or more, the word “moat” has since become a common measure of a business’ longevity. I appreciate when history makes sense.\nPalantir’s Seven Moats\n\nGrowth is easy to measure, but durability isn’t. If you focus on near-term growth above all else, you miss the most important question you should be asking: will this business still be around a decade from now? Numbers alone won’t tell you the answer; instead you must think critically about the qualitative characteristics of your business.”\n\n-Peter Thiel, Founder & Chairman, Palantir\nIn 7 Powers, Hamilton Helmer writes about the seven moats a business may employ to guide value-creation efforts. By combining operational excellence with thoughtful moat-building, Helmer argues, a business may be able to make itself enduringly valuable. The seven powers are: Scale Economies, Network Effects, Counter-Positioning, Switching Costs, Branding, Cornered Resources, and Process Power.\nHelmer outlines case studies of these moats represented by modern day enterprises. Pixar had the brain trust (Cornered Resource), Nike(NYSE:NKE)can charge more for a pair of shoes than competitors (Brand), and Netflix’s(NASDAQ:NFLX)content costs less to produce as it gains subscribers (Scale Economies). The most iconic companies in the world have two, maybe three moats.\nPalantir (PLTR) has all seven.\nI know that sounds crazy because Palantir went public nine months ago, and yes, it remains unprofitable. Yes, the stock based compensation is corpulent. Yes, revenue is concentrated and yes, valuation is optimistic. Yes to all of it.\nNo take backs. Palantir has seven moats. Let me show you.\nPalantir's Scale Economies\nThe quality of declining unit costs as volume increases\nPalantir’s sales cycles are perhaps the most misunderstood aspect of their business model. Naysayers argue Palantir is a services company. Bag holders who bought at $35/share argue Palantir is a SaaS company. They’re both right.\nGotham and Foundry drive high margin, recurring software contracts for government and commercial customers alike. Meanwhile, Palantir parachutes in technical consultants to expand and mature these contracts. Palantir describes this sales cycle as “Acquire, Expand, and Scale.”\nAcquire\nWhile Palantirisa software company, it stands quite apart from others who share this label. For example, there are some differences between selling a software like Zoom (ZM) to an enterprise, and selling Foundry. As of Q1 2021, Palantir reported $8.1 million in annual revenue per customer. This staggering product revenue belies the value of Palantir’s offerings, but also underscores the complexity of their sales cycle.\nIn Palantir’s S-1, Acquire customers are described as those enjoying short-term pilot deployments of Palantir’s technology. Palantir operates these accounts at a loss, and notes this selling phase generally lasts 6-9 months on average.\nExpand\nThe second phase, Expand, is characterized byvalue building.Palantir focuses on understanding the customer’s challenges and delivering against them. These are customers who provide larger revenue contracts to Palantir, but also generally represent negative contribution margins.\nI know, two stages in a row of unprofitable product delivery. However, this stage is marked by an almost viral expansion of Palantir’s personalized value creation, informed by 6 – 9 months of data ingestion and customer feedback during the Acquire phase. It is in this stage that Palantir’s offerings begin to merit the descriptorbespoke.\nExpand is fueled by CEO Alex Karp himself, who, prior to the pandemic, spent 250 days a year visiting clients in person. This is perhaps the most ineffaceable contribution of Karp; the CEO served as a salesforce for a company that never had one. Palantir’s customers are whales. Karp is Captain Ahab.\nScale\nThe word “scale” is used a full 44 times in thePalantir S-1, and Palantir defines Scale customers as those contributing mature contracts with a positive contribution margin. During Scale, we witness a reversal of Palantir’s unit economics. As customer accounts mature, Palantir’s investment costs decrease. Customers can now operate independently, building their own applications on top of Foundry or Gotham. This results in new use cases, less services fees, and a greater proportion of high-margin recurring revenue.\n\n It is in the Scale phase of our partnerships with customers that we generally see contribution margin on particular accounts improve. In 2019, we generated $565.7 million in revenue from customers in the Scale phase, with a contribution margin of 55%. In H1 2020, those same customers generated $296.3 million in revenue, with a contribution margin of 68%.\n\nSource:Palantir S-1\nAnd also:\n\nWe believe that all of our customers will move into the Scale phase over the long term.We also believe that contribution margin for Scale phase accounts will increase further as we become more efficient at deploying our software platforms across the entirety of our customers’ operations and at managing and operating our software…In H1 2020, the top 25% of customers by contribution margin in the Scale phase as of the end of 2019 had a\n contribution margin during the period of 89%.\n\nSource:Palantir S-1, emphasis mine\nFor those of you wringing your clammy hands over Palantir’s inability to turn a profit, take notice:Palantir has just begun to leverage this moat to drive astronomical contribution margins approaching 90%.As Palantir converts more customers from Expand to Scale, margins will improve, costs will depress, and revenue concentration will diversify. As Palantir optimizes and in some cases automates software deployment, I expect the Acquire and Expand cycles shorten, allowing this flywheel to spin faster.\nSource:Palantir Q4 2020 Business Update\nPalantir's Network effects\nThe product becomes more valuable as more customers use the product\nIn Palantir’s S-1, “Generate Network Effects,” is listed within the First Principles section. They go on to describe how Palantir’s software becomes more valuable to the customer as more employees use the product.\n\n At a financial services customer, network effects enabled our platforms to scale from a single use case to more than 70 workstreams across compliance, front office, risk, and internal audit desks.\n\n-Source:Palantir’s S-1\nImagine, for a moment, you are a sweater-vest wearing software engineer at Okland Bank, who just agreed to a Foundry pilot. As you sip your oat milk latte, you begin clicking through Foundry information dashboards, and slowly you explore and experiment with the Foundry platform. You realize you can run data-analytics on AI-infused applications, and begin identifying inefficiencies, which are shared with your team and supervisors (making you look quite brilliant).\nAs Foundry is used to identify optimization targets, developers begin building their own application layer on top of Foundry, which identifies new use cases and new applications, and new layers are added. Palantir’s network effects manifest as a digital opera cake; an indelible stack of use cases rising ever higher as utility begets utility. This is the second of Palantir’s moats.\nI believe there are sector-specific network effects in play as well. How much different would Palantir’s software deployment be for Boeing(NYSE:BA)as compared to current Palantir customer Airbus(OTCPK:EADSF)? Not much, I'd wager.\nThe Life Sciences sector, which Palantir identified as a major growth area moving forward is another example. Palantir revealed that a top 5 pharma company is using Foundry to integrate genotyping and lab data across thousands of clinical trials. This experience can be extended toanypharma company, and Palantir’s work with this customer allows foresight into the myriad use cases such companies would benefit from. Foresight here is not intangible; it results in accelerated product expansion at lower cost for each and every additional sector-specific customer who inks a deal with Palantir.\nThis moat is borne out in the numbers, as Palantir’s largest customers continue to expand and renew larger contracts.\nPalantir's Switching Costs\nCustomers would incur value loss if they switched to a different product supplier\nThis is perhaps the easiest moat to highlight for Palantir. If you understand machine learning at a basic level, you might intuit how a data analytics company like Palantir would have high Switching Costs.\nI believe there is apoint of no returnfor customers somewhere in the Expand phase of the sales cycle. At this point, Foundry use cases are multiplying, efficiencies are being realized, and the software is becoming less a service and more the central operating system of the enterprise. In a given organization, petabytes of data have been collated by Palantir and refined into actionable processes, and each day Foundry knows the organizational needs a little bit better. Remember, this is likely 18 months into a customer relationship, and Foundry has become an everyday analytics tool in the company workflow.\nI believe this is the point of no return, because the alternative here is unimaginable. First and foremost, who is this alternative software provider? Bueller? Even if there was a comparable service to Foundry, and there’s not, you would be starting entirely over again. Enterprises want to accelerate, no, hurtle towards a digital, AI-driven future. Try explaining to senior management we have to pull the plug 18 months in on Foundry because the price tag is too steep. You would have to go back to Day 0 with data collection, analysis and refining. It would be a duplication of effort, time and expense of the greatest scale. Somewhere in Expand you’re in too deep – if you turn off the lights, the ice cream melts.\nPalantir’s largest contracts have been customers of Palantir the longest. This is not coincidence. It is a moat, Palantir's third. Switching costs only increase as customers become deeper users of Palantir products.\nCommodity software services will never enjoy the strategic advantage Palantir owns. Would it really be that big of a deal if your company switched from Skype to Zoom?\nPalantir'sBranding\nThe durable attribution of higher value to an objectively identical offering that arises from historical information about the seller\nThe Branding moat is easier to understand in the context of basic consumer products, like Coca-Cola(NYSE:KO). I would probably pay double for a Coca-Cola than a Koka Kola, for example.\nMaking this comparison in data analytics software is challenged because I don’t believe there is an identical offering to Palantir. Hypothetically, however, let’s assume such a company exists.\nPalantir has built an iconic brand since its inception in 2003. Over the past 18 years, Palantir has been funded by the CIA, linked to the identification and killing of Osama Bin Laden, sued the U.S. Army and won, and has carefully curated a narrative of intrigue and ostensibly supernatural analytics capabilities. But this company image is not the Branding moat I aim to highlight here.\nThis is the publicly traded company theU.S. government hires to manage their nuclear program. This is the company the NHS hires to manage PPE inventory and vaccine rollout during the greatest public health crisis of our time. Over the past two decades, Palantir has a track record of coming through in the most extreme circumstances our country faces. To the U.S. government, I would argue, there is no software company that better epitomizes reliability and security than Palantir. That is an enduring brand.\nThe below press releases were announced over the past two monthsalone:\n\nCDC Renews Partnership with Palantir for Disease Monitoring and Outbreak Response\nPalantir Awarded $111m Contract to Provide Mission Command Platform for the United States Special Operations Command\nPalantir and Space Force Expand Partnership\n\nI don’t care how bearish you may be about Palantir’s valuation. There is no software company that has the brand value Palantir does with the U.S. government and her allies abroad. As Palantir expands into commercial vectors with clients evermore concerned about cybersecurity, and data fidelity… what competitor can point to the resume Palantir can? When the margin of error must be zero, and you are looking down the barrel of a no fail scenario, bet on Palantir.\nPalantir's Counter-Positioning\nA newcomer adopts a new, superior business model which the incumbent does not mimic due to anticipated damage to their existing business\nCounter-positioning is a unique moat, I think best represented by Square (SQ) in the digital wallet space. Incumbent banks have moved with all the intention of an ice floe to counter Square’s moves, partly due to regulation, partly due to underestimated competition, but mostly because offering digital wallet solutions could cannibalize banks’ core products. This is the Counter-Positioning moat.\nPalantir’s Counter-Positioning moat is perhaps less obvious. First off, who is the incumbent? Palantir’s technology is so disruptive, it can be challenging to construe a natural competitor.\nFor Gotham (Gov’t), the incumbentwasthe government; the U.S. Army, the DoD, the CIA, etc. Let’s wind back the clocks to 2015. The U.S. Army released a solicitation seeking bids to build the Distributed Common Ground System-Army (DCGS-A). This would be an integrated data analytics framework that could gather data from numerous sources, share data seamlessly across a suite of analytical tools and provide easy-to use visualization for soldiers in the field. Sound familiar? Sounds exactly like Palantir’s Gotham product to me.\nDCGS-A was actually an internal Army project over a decade in the making at a development cost of $3 Billion. Palantir entered into the bidding at a much lower cost, but the Army elected to continue its own internal development. Palantir ultimately filed a lawsuit against the Army, arguing that Gotham provided the exact services the Army was attempting to build, and at a fraction of the cost. In October of 2016, a federal judge ruled in favor of Palantir (§ 2377), and established the precedent that the government must procure commercial services and products to the maximum practical extent. This was appealed by the Army, but later held up in the U.S. Court of Appeals in 2018.\nSource:Palantir S-1 Filing\nPalantir’s landmark lawsuit against the Army surprisingly resulted in a deepening relationship with the U.S. Government. In the year following the lawsuit, Palantir’s Army revenue equaled the sum of the eleven preceding years.\nSimilar to incumbent banks, there is something about size that begets bureaucracy and inertia. The U.S. government, for all its influence and power, either chose to underinvest in data analytics, moved too slowly, or underestimated the pace of innovation in the private sector. It was probably some of each.\nThese same competitive issues are manifesting in the private sector. Massive enterprise software behemoths like Oracle (ORCL) and SAP (SAP) have spent the past decade building out sales teams for ‘good enough’ products. Meanwhile, Palantir has been obsessively proliferating and refining their offerings (more on this later) without a recognizable salesforce. Palantir’s entire focus over the past 18 years was engineering great product, and the incumbents are just now sensing the deep, almost planetary groan of enterprise software culture shifting, the jeremiad of an opportunity missed.\nPalantir is deepening its Counter-Positioning moat by investing in several young, disruptive companies in the data analytics space. In my prior Palantir article,Palantir’s SPACs: Do You See What Karp Sees?, I outlined Palantir’s investments in these companies as opportunities to expand market reach and build a valuable portfolio.\nI have since added another layer to this analysis. These investment companies are not just expanding Palantir’s market reach, they are lighthouses for Palantir’s products, emissaries that may evince the velocity Foundry contributes to product roadmap and go to market pace. By partnering with these companies, Palantir is cementing its technological leadership and demonstrating commitment to the innovative product DNA its reputation is built around.\nPalantir's Cornered Resources\nPreferential access at attractive terms to a coveted asset that can independently enhance value\nPalantir hoards two resources that confer a remarkable advantage over its competitors: technology and talent. I’m going to start with Thiel’s definition of technological advantage. It’s ambitious, but Palantir clears this bar.\n\n As a good rule of thumb, proprietary technology must be at least 10 times better than its closest substitute in some important dimension to lead to a real monopolistic advantage.”\n\n- Peter Thiel, Co-Founder & Chairman, Palantir,Zero to One\nTen times better. When the product offered is 10x better than the alternative, amazing things can happen. SpaceX’s (SPACE) rockets are 10x more efficient than NASA’s, meeting your next boyfriend is 10x easier on Bumble (BMBL) than it is in your local bar, and streaming Lord of the Rings on Netflix (NFLX) is 10x easier than driving to Best Buy (BBY) to wrangle up a set of DVDs.\nAlthough it’s early days, Palantir’s software already appears to be 10x better than competitors in several ways. In Q1 2021, for example, Gotham was used to enable all 11 DoD Combatant Commands to generate integrated strategic decision advantage from intelligence, operations, logistics and supply data. This capability otherwisenever existed. Palantir’s software is so advanced it continues to invent new use cases, which is a testament to the logarithmic improvement these offerings represent.\nSource:Palantir Q4 2020 Business Update\nAnd Palantir continues to out-innovate competitors. In Palantir’s Q4 2020 earning presentation, they provided an update on trajectory towards a DoD Impact Level 6 (IL-6) status. They are one of only four IL-5 companies (Mission Critical Information National Security Systems) in the world, and are targeting IL-6, which would make them the first SaaS for Classified Secret National Security Systems. For frame of reference, IL-2 companies include data analytics giants Snowflake (SNOW) and Google (GOOG).\nPalantir’s data are better because Palantir’s data quality is better. For as much import as we place on data volume in analytics, data quality is even more prized. Gotham has been humming in the mud, in space, and on the ocean floor more than a decade, informed by the harshest and most demanding scenarios. Gotham is battle tested enterprise software.\nPalantir’s second Cornered Resource is talent. Karp’s reported nose for and ability to seduce top engineering talent has resulted in a who’s who roster almost impossible to emulate.\nAs an investor, I am okay with Palantir bears doodling out their diluted cash flow models and how stock based compensation affects it. But these bears cannot in the same breath:\n\nComplain about Palantir’s SBC and--\nArgue Palantir does not have a moat of engineering talent\n\nPalantir is incentivizing engineering and product talent with SBC and an opportunity to change the world. If one NFL team had no salary cap, every position would be filled with the top player in The League. That is what Karp has done.\nPalantir's Process Power\nEmbedded company organization and activity sets enabling lower costs and/or superior product, and which can be matched only by an extended commitment\nProcess Power is Palantir's seventh, and final, moat. The most obvious examples are product deployment speed and the comprehensive nature of Palantir’s offerings.\n\n An energy supermajor deployed our ERP suite in hours. Within two weeks, they generated $57 million of cash savings and expect to generate $1 billion on an annualized basis.\n\n-Palantir Q3 2020 Business Update\nTraditional high touch software solutions offered by competitors are delivered in roadmap fashion, with an ultimate product delivery sometimes months or even years down the road. Palantir’s software can be deployed and benefits realized within hours.\nIn addition, there are no competitors that have the sweeping data analytics offerings Palantir does. This means customers who are not using Palantir are burdened with licensing fees from dozens of separate companies whose software oftentimes doesn’t communicate with each other.\nSource:The Generalist\nPalantir has built a full stack of data analytics applications and continues to do so as needed for clients.

Palantir is building a dynasty.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"PLTR":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1427,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":126547102,"gmtCreate":1624580073006,"gmtModify":1633951070787,"author":{"id":"3578269551303318","authorId":"3578269551303318","name":"Pusheen","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3578269551303318","idStr":"3578269551303318"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice!","listText":"Nice!","text":"Nice!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/126547102","repostId":"2146023438","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2146023438","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1624565740,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2146023438?lang=zh_CN&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-25 04:15","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"Nike Q4 EPS $0.93 Beats $0.51 Estimate, Sales $12.30B Beat $11.01B Estimate<blockquote>耐克第四季度EPS$0.93超出预期$0.51,销售额$12.30 B超出预期$11.01 B</blockquote>","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2146023438","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Nike (NYSE:NKE) reported quarterly earnings of $0.93 per share which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $0.51 by 82.35 percent.

His name had become synonymous with military brilliance, and he had a knack for unseating more powerful opponents.</p><p><blockquote>织田信长,一个被认为是“伟大的统一者”(或战场上的“魔王”)的武士,正在成为全日本最强大的武士军阀。他的名字已经成为军事才华的代名词,他有能力推翻更强大的对手。</blockquote></p><p> Despite the power of Nobunaga, a faction of the Buddhist faith, called the Ikkō (Single Minded) Ikki (League), began consolidating power, building fortresses and accumulating growing numbers of warrior monks. The Ikkō Ikki ultimately established themselves in the fortress of Ishiyama Hongan-ji (Stone Mountain) in what is modern day Osaka.</p><p><blockquote>尽管信长拥有强大的力量,但佛教中的一个派别——一心一意的一辉(联盟)——开始巩固权力,建造堡垒,积累越来越多的武僧。Ikko一辉最终在今天大阪的石山本愿寺(石山)建立了自己的堡垒。</blockquote></p><p> By the 1560’s Nobunaga had defeated all opposing samurai warlords in Japan, and only the Ikkō Ikki stood in the way of Nobunaga blanketing Japan with his hegemony.</p><p><blockquote>到了16世纪60年代,信长已经击败了日本所有反对的武士军阀,只有一晃一辉阻止了信长用他的霸权覆盖日本。</blockquote></p><p> And so, in 1570 Nobunaga set out for Ishiyama Hongan-ji with 30,000 troops, many of whom were trained with early versions of rifles known as arquebuses. Nobunaga himself was armed with the Dōjigiri Yasutsuna: Japan’s most famous sword. Legend has it that the Dōjigiri Yasutsuna was used to kill the most terrifying demon of its time: the Shuten-Dōji.</p><p><blockquote>因此,1570年,信长带着30,000名士兵出发前往石山本愿寺,其中许多人接受过早期版本的火绳枪的训练。信长本人手持日本最著名的剑——“道吉里安纲”。传说道吉里安纲被用来杀死当时最可怕的恶魔——酒吞道吉。</blockquote></p><p> Despite the considerable weapons at his disposal, Nobunaga’s attack on the fortress of Ishiyama Hongan-ji was unsuccessful. For ten years his forces laid siege to Ishiyama, and for ten years he was repelled. Indeed, when the Ikkō Ikki finally surrendered in 1580, it was at the request of the Imperial Court rather than the fortress being overrun.</p><p><blockquote>尽管信长拥有大量武器,但他对石山本愿寺要塞的进攻并没有成功。他的部队围攻石山十年,他被击退了十年。事实上,1580年一光一号最终投降时,是应朝廷的要求,而不是要塞被攻破。</blockquote></p><p> So how did the Ikkō Ikki fend off the most fearsome shogun in medieval Japan?</p><p><blockquote>那么一晃一辉是如何抵挡住中世纪日本最可怕的幕府将军的呢?</blockquote></p><p> A moat, of course.</p><p><blockquote>当然是护城河。</blockquote></p><p> Flowing around the cathedral fortress of Ishiyama was an intricate labyrinth of moats surmounted by featureless walls. As a consequence of the moats, these walls could not be assaulted with siege towers or tunneled through. They could not be climbed or vaulted. It was unassailable.</p><p><blockquote>环绕石山大教堂要塞的是一条错综复杂的护城河,上面是毫无特色的城墙。由于有了护城河,这些城墙不能被攻城塔或隧道攻击。它们不能被攀爬或跨越。它无懈可击。</blockquote></p><p> In reference to this medieval structure that could provide defense against attackers for 10 years or more, the word “moat” has since become a common measure of a business’ longevity. I appreciate when history makes sense.</p><p><blockquote>关于这种可以防御攻击者10年或更长时间的中世纪结构,“护城河”一词从此成为衡量企业寿命的常用指标。我欣赏历史有意义的时候。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Palantir’s Seven Moats</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的七大护城河</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>Growth is easy to measure, but durability isn’t. If you focus on near-term growth above all else, you miss the most important question you should be asking: will this business still be around a decade from now? Numbers alone won’t tell you the answer; instead you must think critically about the qualitative characteristics of your business.”</i> -Peter Thiel, Founder & Chairman, Palantir</p><p><blockquote><i>增长很容易衡量,但持久性却不容易。如果你把短期增长看得比什么都重要,你就错过了你应该问的最重要的问题:十年后,这项业务还会存在吗?光靠数字是不会告诉你答案的;相反,你必须批判性地思考你的业务的质量特征。”</i>—Peter Thiel,Palantir创始人兼董事长</blockquote></p><p> In 7 Powers, Hamilton Helmer writes about the seven moats a business may employ to guide value-creation efforts. By combining operational excellence with thoughtful moat-building, Helmer argues, a business may be able to make itself enduringly valuable. The seven powers are: Scale Economies, Network Effects, Counter-Positioning, Switching Costs, Branding, Cornered Resources, and Process Power.</p><p><blockquote>在《7种权力》一书中,汉密尔顿·赫尔默(Hamilton Helmer)写道,企业可以用来指导价值创造工作的七条护城河。赫尔默认为,通过将卓越运营与深思熟虑的护城河建设相结合,企业或许能够使自己具有持久的价值。这七种力量是:规模经济、网络效应、反向定位、转换成本、品牌、垄断资源和流程力量。</blockquote></p><p> Helmer outlines case studies of these moats represented by modern day enterprises. Pixar had the brain trust (Cornered Resource), Nike(NYSE:NKE)can charge more for a pair of shoes than competitors (Brand), and Netflix’s(NASDAQ:NFLX)content costs less to produce as it gains subscribers (Scale Economies). The most iconic companies in the world have two, maybe three moats.</p><p><blockquote>赫尔默概述了以现代企业为代表的这些护城河的案例研究。Pixar拥有智囊团(被垄断的资源),Nike(纽约证券交易所股票代码:NKE)可以为一双鞋收取比竞争对手(品牌)更高的费用,而Netflix(纳斯达克股票代码:NFLX)的内容制作成本随着订户的增加而降低(规模经济)。世界上最具标志性的公司有两条,也许三条护城河。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir (PLTR) has all seven.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir(PLTR)拥有全部七项。</blockquote></p><p> I know that sounds crazy because Palantir went public nine months ago, and yes, it remains unprofitable. Yes, the stock based compensation is corpulent. Yes, revenue is concentrated and yes, valuation is optimistic. Yes to all of it.</p><p><blockquote>我知道这听起来很疯狂,因为Palantir九个月前上市,是的,它仍然没有盈利。是的,基于股票的薪酬是丰厚的。是的,收入集中,是的,估值乐观。对所有这些都是肯定的。</blockquote></p><p> No take backs. Palantir has seven moats.

Naysayers argue Palantir is a services company. Bag holders who bought at $35/share argue Palantir is a SaaS company. They’re both right.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir的销售周期可能是其商业模式中最被误解的方面。反对者认为Palantir是一家服务公司。以每股35美元的价格买入的购物者认为Palantir是一家SaaS公司。他们都是对的。</blockquote></p><p> Gotham and Foundry drive high margin, recurring software contracts for government and commercial customers alike. Meanwhile, Palantir parachutes in technical consultants to expand and mature these contracts. Palantir describes this sales cycle as “Acquire, Expand, and Scale.”</p><p><blockquote>Gotham和Foundry为政府和商业客户提供高利润的经常性软件合同。与此同时,Palantir引进技术顾问来扩大和成熟这些合同。Palantir将这个销售周期描述为“收购、扩张和规模化”。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Acquire</b></p><p><blockquote><b>获得</b></blockquote></p><p></p><p> While Palantir<i>is</i>a software company, it stands quite apart from others who share this label. For example, there are some differences between selling a software like Zoom (ZM) to an enterprise, and selling Foundry. As of Q1 2021, Palantir reported $8.1 million in annual revenue per customer. This staggering product revenue belies the value of Palantir’s offerings, but also underscores the complexity of their sales cycle.</p><p><blockquote>而Palantir<i>是</i>作为一家软件公司,它与其他分享这个标签的公司截然不同。例如,向企业销售Zoom(ZM)这样的软件和销售Foundry之间存在一些差异。截至2021年第一季度,Palantir报告每位客户的年收入为810万美元。这种惊人的产品收入掩盖了Palantir产品的价值,但也凸显了其销售周期的复杂性。</blockquote></p><p> In Palantir’s S-1, Acquire customers are described as those enjoying short-term pilot deployments of Palantir’s technology. Palantir operates these accounts at a loss, and notes this selling phase generally lasts 6-9 months on average.</p><p><blockquote>在Palantir的S-1中,Acquire客户被描述为享受Palantir技术短期试点部署的客户。Palantir亏本运营这些账户,并指出这一销售阶段通常平均持续6-9个月。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Expand</b></p><p><blockquote><b>扩大</b></blockquote></p><p> The second phase, Expand, is characterized by<i>value building.</i>Palantir focuses on understanding the customer’s challenges and delivering against them. These are customers who provide larger revenue contracts to Palantir, but also generally represent negative contribution margins.</p><p><blockquote>第二阶段,扩展,其特征是<i>价值建设。</i>Palantir专注于了解客户的挑战并应对这些挑战。这些客户向Palantir提供较大收入合同,但通常也代表负贡献利润率。</blockquote></p><p> I know, two stages in a row of unprofitable product delivery. However, this stage is marked by an almost viral expansion of Palantir’s personalized value creation, informed by 6 – 9 months of data ingestion and customer feedback during the Acquire phase.

Karp is Captain Ahab.</p><p><blockquote>Expand是由首席执行官Alex Karp本人推动的,在大流行之前,他每年有250天亲自拜访客户。这也许是卡普最不可磨灭的贡献;这位首席执行官为一家从未有过销售人员的公司担任销售人员。Palantir的客户是鲸鱼。卡普是亚哈船长。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Scale</b></p><p><blockquote><b>比例</b></blockquote></p><p> The word “scale” is used a full 44 times in thePalantir S-1, and Palantir defines Scale customers as those contributing mature contracts with a positive contribution margin. During Scale, we witness a reversal of Palantir’s unit economics. As customer accounts mature, Palantir’s investment costs decrease. Customers can now operate independently, building their own applications on top of Foundry or Gotham. This results in new use cases, less services fees, and a greater proportion of high-margin recurring revenue.</p><p><blockquote>“规模”一词在Palantir S-1中被使用了整整44次,Palantir将规模客户定义为那些贡献具有正边际的成熟合同的客户。在规模化过程中,我们见证了Palantir单位经济效益的逆转。随着客户账户的成熟,Palantir的投资成本会降低。客户现在可以独立操作,在Foundry或Gotham之上构建自己的应用程序。这会带来新的用例、更少的服务费以及更大比例的高利润经常性收入。</blockquote></p><p> It is in the Scale phase of our partnerships with customers that we generally see contribution margin on particular accounts improve. In 2019, we generated $565.7 million in revenue from customers in the Scale phase, with a contribution margin of 55%.

As you sip your oat milk latte, you begin clicking through Foundry information dashboards, and slowly you explore and experiment with the Foundry platform. You realize you can run data-analytics on AI-infused applications, and begin identifying inefficiencies, which are shared with your team and supervisors (making you look quite brilliant).</p><p><blockquote>想象一下,你是奥克兰银行的一名穿着毛衣背心的软件工程师,刚刚同意进行代工试点。当您啜饮燕麦牛奶拿铁时,您开始点击Foundry信息仪表板,慢慢地探索和试验Foundry平台。你意识到你可以在注入人工智能的应用程序上运行数据分析,并开始识别效率低下的地方,这些地方与你的团队和主管分享(让你看起来很聪明)。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> As Foundry is used to identify optimization targets, developers begin building their own application layer on top of Foundry, which identifies new use cases and new applications, and new layers are added. Palantir’s network effects manifest as a digital opera cake; an indelible stack of use cases rising ever higher as utility begets utility. This is the second of Palantir’s moats.</p><p><blockquote>随着Foundry用于识别优化目标,开发人员开始在Foundry之上构建他们自己的应用层,它识别新的用例和新的应用,并添加新的层。Palantir的网络效应表现为数字歌剧蛋糕;随着效用产生效用,不可磨灭的用例堆栈越来越高。这是Palantir的第二条护城河。</blockquote></p><p> I believe there are sector-specific network effects in play as well. How much different would Palantir’s software deployment be for Boeing(NYSE:BA)as compared to current Palantir customer Airbus(OTCPK:EADSF)? Not much, I'd wager.</p><p><blockquote>我相信也有特定行业的网络效应在起作用。与Palantir当前客户空中客车公司(OTCPK:EADSF)相比,波音公司(NYSE:BA)的Palantir软件部署有多大不同?我敢打赌,不多。</blockquote></p><p> The Life Sciences sector, which Palantir identified as a major growth area moving forward is another example. Palantir revealed that a top 5 pharma company is using Foundry to integrate genotyping and lab data across thousands of clinical trials. This experience can be extended to<i>any</i>pharma company, and Palantir’s work with this customer allows foresight into the myriad use cases such companies would benefit from. Foresight here is not intangible; it results in accelerated product expansion at lower cost for each and every additional sector-specific customer who inks a deal with Palantir.</p><p><blockquote>生命科学领域是另一个例子,Palantir将其确定为未来的主要增长领域。Palantir透露,一家排名前5的制药公司正在使用Foundry来整合数千项临床试验的基因分型和实验室数据。这种经验可以推广到<i>任何</i>制药公司,Palantir与该客户的合作使我们能够预见此类公司将从中受益的无数用例。这里的远见不是无形的;对于与Palantir签署协议的每一个额外的特定行业客户来说,它可以以更低的成本加速产品扩展。</blockquote></p><p> This moat is borne out in the numbers, as Palantir’s largest customers continue to expand and renew larger contracts.</p><p><blockquote>随着Palantir最大的客户不断扩张并续签更大的合同,这条护城河在数字上得到了证实。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Palantir's</b> <b>Switching</b> <b>Costs</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的</b> <b>切换</b> <b>成本</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>Customers would incur value loss if they switched to a different product supplier</i></p><p><blockquote><i>如果客户转向不同的产品供应商,他们将遭受价值损失</i></blockquote></p><p> This is perhaps the easiest moat to highlight for Palantir. If you understand machine learning at a basic level, you might intuit how a data analytics company like Palantir would have high Switching Costs.</p><p><blockquote>这也许是Palantir最容易强调的护城河。如果您对机器学习有基本的了解,您可能会直觉到像Palantir这样的数据分析公司会有很高的转换成本。</blockquote></p><p> I believe there is a<i>point of no return</i>for customers somewhere in the Expand phase of the sales cycle. At this point, Foundry use cases are multiplying, efficiencies are being realized, and the software is becoming less a service and more the central operating system of the enterprise. In a given organization, petabytes of data have been collated by Palantir and refined into actionable processes, and each day Foundry knows the organizational needs a little bit better. Remember, this is likely 18 months into a customer relationship, and Foundry has become an everyday analytics tool in the company workflow.</p><p><blockquote>我相信有个<i>不归路</i>对于处于销售周期扩展阶段的客户。在这一点上,代工用例正在成倍增加,效率正在实现,软件正在变得越来越少的服务,而更多的是企业的中央操作系统。在给定的组织中,Palantir会整理数PB的数据并将其提炼为可操作的流程,Foundry每天都会更好地了解组织的需求。请记住,这可能是客户关系的18个月,Foundry已成为公司工作流程中的日常分析工具。</blockquote></p><p> I believe this is the point of no return, because the alternative here is unimaginable. First and foremost, who is this alternative software provider? Bueller? Even if there was a comparable service to Foundry, and there’s not, you would be starting entirely over again. Enterprises want to accelerate, no, hurtle towards a digital, AI-driven future. Try explaining to senior management we have to pull the plug 18 months in on Foundry because the price tag is too steep. You would have to go back to Day 0 with data collection, analysis and refining. It would be a duplication of effort, time and expense of the greatest scale. Somewhere in Expand you’re in too deep – if you turn off the lights, the ice cream melts.</p><p><blockquote>我相信这是不归路,因为这里的替代方案是不可想象的。首先,这个替代软件提供商是谁?布勒?即使有类似于Foundry的服务,但没有,你也要从头再来。企业希望加速,不,奔向数字化、人工智能驱动的未来。尝试向高级管理层解释,我们必须在18个月内停止代工业务,因为价格太高。您必须回到第0天进行数据收集、分析和提炼。这将是最大规模的努力、时间和费用的重复。在Expand的某个地方,你陷得太深了——如果你关灯,冰淇淋就会融化。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir’s largest contracts have been customers of Palantir the longest. This is not coincidence. It is a moat, Palantir's third. Switching costs only increase as customers become deeper users of Palantir products.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir最大的合同是Palantir最长的客户。这不是巧合。这是Palantir的第三条护城河。随着客户成为Palantir产品的深度用户,转换成本只会增加。</blockquote></p><p> Commodity software services will never enjoy the strategic advantage Palantir owns. Would it really be that big of a deal if your company switched from Skype to Zoom?</p><p><blockquote>商品软件服务永远不会享有Palantir所拥有的战略优势。如果你的公司从Skype转向Zoom,这真的有那么大的问题吗?</blockquote></p><p> <b>Palantir'sBranding</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的品牌</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>The durable attribution of higher value to an objectively identical offering that arises from historical information about the seller</i></p><p><blockquote><i>从卖方的历史信息中产生的客观上相同的产品的更高价值的持久属性</i></blockquote></p><p> The Branding moat is easier to understand in the context of basic consumer products, like Coca-Cola(NYSE:KO). I would probably pay double for a Coca-Cola than a Koka Kola, for example.</p><p><blockquote>在可口可乐(纽约证券交易所股票代码:KO)等基本消费品的背景下,品牌护城河更容易理解。例如,我可能会花双倍的钱买一杯可口可乐。</blockquote></p><p> Making this comparison in data analytics software is challenged because I don’t believe there is an identical offering to Palantir. Hypothetically, however, let’s assume such a company exists.</p><p><blockquote>在数据分析软件中进行这种比较是一个挑战,因为我不相信Palantir有相同的产品。然而,假设一下,让我们假设这样一家公司存在。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir has built an iconic brand since its inception in 2003. Over the past 18 years, Palantir has been funded by the CIA, linked to the identification and killing of Osama Bin Laden, sued the U.S. Army and won, and has carefully curated a narrative of intrigue and ostensibly supernatural analytics capabilities. But this company image is not the Branding moat I aim to highlight here.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir自2003年成立以来已打造了一个标志性品牌。起诉美国,过去18年来,Palantir一直由中央情报局资助,与识别和击毙奥萨马·本·拉登有关。军队和胜利,并精心策划了一个阴谋和表面上超自然的分析能力的叙事。但这种公司形象并不是我在这里要强调的品牌护城河。</blockquote></p><p> This is the publicly traded company the<i>U.S. government hires to manage their nuclear program</i>. This is the company the NHS hires to manage PPE inventory and vaccine rollout during the greatest public health crisis of our time. Over the past two decades, Palantir has a track record of coming through in the most extreme circumstances our country faces. To the U.S. government, I would argue, there is no software company that better epitomizes reliability and security than Palantir. That is an enduring brand.</p><p><blockquote>这是一家上市公司<i>美国政府雇佣员工来管理他们的核计划</i>.这是NHS雇佣的公司,在我们这个时代最大的公共卫生危机期间管理个人防护设备库存和疫苗推广。在过去的二十年里,Palantir拥有在我国面临的最极端情况下挺身而出的记录。我认为,对于美国政府来说,没有哪家软件公司比Palantir更能体现可靠性和安全性。这是一个经久不衰的品牌。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> The below press releases were announced over the past two months<i>alone</i>:</p><p><blockquote>以下是过去两个月发布的新闻稿<i>单独的</i>:</blockquote></p><p> <ul> <li>CDC Renews Partnership with Palantir for Disease Monitoring and Outbreak Response</li> <li>Palantir Awarded $111m Contract to Provide Mission Command Platform for the United States Special Operations Command</li> <li>Palantir and Space Force Expand Partnership</li> </ul> I don’t care how bearish you may be about Palantir’s valuation.

This is the Counter-Positioning moat.</p><p><blockquote>反向定位是一条独特的护城河,我认为数字钱包领域的Square(SQ)最能代表这一点。现有银行的行动完全是为了对抗Square的举措,部分原因是监管,部分原因是竞争被低估,但主要是因为提供数字钱包解决方案可能会蚕食银行的核心产品。这就是反定位护城河。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir’s Counter-Positioning moat is perhaps less obvious. First off, who is the incumbent?

The U.S. Army released a solicitation seeking bids to build the Distributed Common Ground System-Army (DCGS-A). This would be an integrated data analytics framework that could gather data from numerous sources, share data seamlessly across a suite of analytical tools and provide easy-to use visualization for soldiers in the field. Sound familiar? Sounds exactly like Palantir’s Gotham product to me.</p><p><blockquote>对于哥谭市(政府)来说,现任<i>什么</i>政府;美国。陆军、国防部、中央情报局等。让我们把时钟拨回到2015年。美国。陆军发布了一份招标书,寻求建造分布式通用地面系统-陆军(DCGS-A)。这将是一个集成的数据分析框架,可以从众多来源收集数据,跨一套分析工具无缝共享数据,并为战场上的士兵提供易于使用的可视化。听起来很熟悉?对我来说,这听起来就像Palantir的Gotham产品。</blockquote></p><p> DCGS-A was actually an internal Army project over a decade in the making at a development cost of $3 Billion. Palantir entered into the bidding at a much lower cost, but the Army elected to continue its own internal development. Palantir ultimately filed a lawsuit against the Army, arguing that Gotham provided the exact services the Army was attempting to build, and at a fraction of the cost. In October of 2016, a federal judge ruled in favor of Palantir (§ 2377), and established the precedent that the government must procure commercial services and products to the maximum practical extent. This was appealed by the Army, but later held up in the U.S. Court of Appeals in 2018.</p><p><blockquote>DCGS-A实际上是一个酝酿了十多年的陆军内部项目,开发成本为30亿美元。Palantir以低得多的成本参与了竞标,但陆军选择继续自己的内部开发。Palantir最终对陆军提起诉讼,辩称哥谭市提供了陆军试图建设的确切服务,而且成本只是陆军试图建设的一小部分。2016年10月,一名联邦法官做出了有利于Palantir(2377)的裁决,并开创了政府必须在最大实际范围内采购商业服务和产品的先例。陆军对此提出上诉,但后来于2018年在美国上诉法院维持原判。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/70fc6c13c9c0d3ca0b559fd48bdff1da\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"457\"><span>Source:Palantir S-1 Filing</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源:Palantir S-1文件</span></p></blockquote></p><p> Palantir’s landmark lawsuit against the Army surprisingly resulted in a deepening relationship with the U.S. Government. In the year following the lawsuit, Palantir’s Army revenue equaled the sum of the eleven preceding years.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir针对陆军的里程碑式诉讼出人意料地加深了与美国政府的关系。诉讼发生后的一年,Palantir的陆军收入相当于前11年的总和。</blockquote></p><p> Similar to incumbent banks, there is something about size that begets bureaucracy and inertia. The U.S. government, for all its influence and power, either chose to underinvest in data analytics, moved too slowly, or underestimated the pace of innovation in the private sector. It was probably some of each.</p><p><blockquote>与现有银行类似,规模也会产生官僚主义和惰性。尽管美国政府拥有巨大的影响力和权力,但它要么选择在数据分析方面投资不足,行动过于缓慢,要么低估了私营部门的创新步伐。可能每种都有一些。</blockquote></p><p> These same competitive issues are manifesting in the private sector. Massive enterprise software behemoths like Oracle (ORCL) and SAP (SAP) have spent the past decade building out sales teams for ‘good enough’ products. Meanwhile, Palantir has been obsessively proliferating and refining their offerings (more on this later) without a recognizable salesforce. Palantir’s entire focus over the past 18 years was engineering great product, and the incumbents are just now sensing the deep, almost planetary groan of enterprise software culture shifting, the jeremiad of an opportunity missed.</p><p><blockquote>这些同样的竞争问题也出现在私营部门。甲骨文(ORCL)和SAP(SAP)等大型企业软件巨头在过去十年里一直在为“足够好”的产品建立销售团队。与此同时,Palantir在没有知名销售人员的情况下一直在痴迷地扩大和完善他们的产品(稍后将详细介绍)。Palantir在过去18年里的全部重点是设计伟大的产品,而现有企业现在刚刚感受到企业软件文化转变的深刻、几乎是全球性的呻吟,以及错失机会的哀叹。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir is deepening its Counter-Positioning moat by investing in several young, disruptive companies in the data analytics space. In my prior Palantir article,Palantir’s SPACs: Do You See What Karp Sees?, I outlined Palantir’s investments in these companies as opportunities to expand market reach and build a valuable portfolio.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir正在通过投资数据分析领域几家年轻、颠覆性的公司来深化其反定位护城河。在我之前的Palantir文章中,Palantir的SPAC:你看到卡普所看到的了吗?,我将Palantir对这些公司的投资概述为扩大市场覆盖范围和建立有价值的投资组合的机会。</blockquote></p><p> I have since added another layer to this analysis. These investment companies are not just expanding Palantir’s market reach, they are lighthouses for Palantir’s products, emissaries that may evince the velocity Foundry contributes to product roadmap and go to market pace. By partnering with these companies, Palantir is cementing its technological leadership and demonstrating commitment to the innovative product DNA its reputation is built around.</p><p><blockquote>从那以后,我在这个分析中又增加了一层。这些投资公司不仅扩大了Palantir的市场影响力,而且还是Palantir产品的灯塔,是可能表明velocity Foundry对产品路线图和上市步伐做出贡献的使者。通过与这些公司合作,Palantir巩固了其技术领先地位,并展示了对其声誉所依据的创新产品DNA的承诺。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> <b>Palantir's</b> <b>Cornered Resources</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的</b> <b>被垄断的资源</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>Preferential access at attractive terms to a coveted asset that can independently enhance value</i></p><p><blockquote><i>以有吸引力的条款优先获得可以独立增值的令人垂涎的资产</i></blockquote></p><p> Palantir hoards two resources that confer a remarkable advantage over its competitors: technology and talent.

His name had become synonymous with military brilliance, and he had a knack for unseating more powerful opponents.</p><p><blockquote>织田信长,一个被认为是“伟大的统一者”(或战场上的“魔王”)的武士,正在成为全日本最强大的武士军阀。他的名字已经成为军事才华的代名词,他有能力推翻更强大的对手。</blockquote></p><p> Despite the power of Nobunaga, a faction of the Buddhist faith, called the Ikkō (Single Minded) Ikki (League), began consolidating power, building fortresses and accumulating growing numbers of warrior monks. The Ikkō Ikki ultimately established themselves in the fortress of Ishiyama Hongan-ji (Stone Mountain) in what is modern day Osaka.</p><p><blockquote>尽管信长拥有强大的力量,但佛教中的一个派别——一心一意的一辉(联盟)——开始巩固权力,建造堡垒,积累越来越多的武僧。Ikko一辉最终在今天大阪的石山本愿寺(石山)建立了自己的堡垒。</blockquote></p><p> By the 1560’s Nobunaga had defeated all opposing samurai warlords in Japan, and only the Ikkō Ikki stood in the way of Nobunaga blanketing Japan with his hegemony.</p><p><blockquote>到了16世纪60年代,信长已经击败了日本所有反对的武士军阀,只有一晃一辉阻止了信长用他的霸权覆盖日本。</blockquote></p><p> And so, in 1570 Nobunaga set out for Ishiyama Hongan-ji with 30,000 troops, many of whom were trained with early versions of rifles known as arquebuses. Nobunaga himself was armed with the Dōjigiri Yasutsuna: Japan’s most famous sword. Legend has it that the Dōjigiri Yasutsuna was used to kill the most terrifying demon of its time: the Shuten-Dōji.</p><p><blockquote>因此,1570年,信长带着30,000名士兵出发前往石山本愿寺,其中许多人接受过早期版本的火绳枪的训练。信长本人手持日本最著名的剑——“道吉里安纲”。传说道吉里安纲被用来杀死当时最可怕的恶魔——酒吞道吉。</blockquote></p><p> Despite the considerable weapons at his disposal, Nobunaga’s attack on the fortress of Ishiyama Hongan-ji was unsuccessful. For ten years his forces laid siege to Ishiyama, and for ten years he was repelled. Indeed, when the Ikkō Ikki finally surrendered in 1580, it was at the request of the Imperial Court rather than the fortress being overrun.</p><p><blockquote>尽管信长拥有大量武器,但他对石山本愿寺要塞的进攻并没有成功。他的部队围攻石山十年,他被击退了十年。事实上,1580年一光一号最终投降时,是应朝廷的要求,而不是要塞被攻破。</blockquote></p><p> So how did the Ikkō Ikki fend off the most fearsome shogun in medieval Japan?</p><p><blockquote>那么一晃一辉是如何抵挡住中世纪日本最可怕的幕府将军的呢?</blockquote></p><p> A moat, of course.</p><p><blockquote>当然是护城河。</blockquote></p><p> Flowing around the cathedral fortress of Ishiyama was an intricate labyrinth of moats surmounted by featureless walls. As a consequence of the moats, these walls could not be assaulted with siege towers or tunneled through. They could not be climbed or vaulted. It was unassailable.</p><p><blockquote>环绕石山大教堂要塞的是一条错综复杂的护城河,上面是毫无特色的城墙。由于有了护城河,这些城墙不能被攻城塔或隧道攻击。它们不能被攀爬或跨越。它无懈可击。</blockquote></p><p> In reference to this medieval structure that could provide defense against attackers for 10 years or more, the word “moat” has since become a common measure of a business’ longevity. I appreciate when history makes sense.</p><p><blockquote>关于这种可以防御攻击者10年或更长时间的中世纪结构,“护城河”一词从此成为衡量企业寿命的常用指标。我欣赏历史有意义的时候。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Palantir’s Seven Moats</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的七大护城河</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>Growth is easy to measure, but durability isn’t. If you focus on near-term growth above all else, you miss the most important question you should be asking: will this business still be around a decade from now? Numbers alone won’t tell you the answer; instead you must think critically about the qualitative characteristics of your business.”</i> -Peter Thiel, Founder & Chairman, Palantir</p><p><blockquote><i>增长很容易衡量,但持久性却不容易。如果你把短期增长看得比什么都重要,你就错过了你应该问的最重要的问题:十年后,这项业务还会存在吗?光靠数字是不会告诉你答案的;相反,你必须批判性地思考你的业务的质量特征。”</i>—Peter Thiel,Palantir创始人兼董事长</blockquote></p><p> In 7 Powers, Hamilton Helmer writes about the seven moats a business may employ to guide value-creation efforts. By combining operational excellence with thoughtful moat-building, Helmer argues, a business may be able to make itself enduringly valuable. The seven powers are: Scale Economies, Network Effects, Counter-Positioning, Switching Costs, Branding, Cornered Resources, and Process Power.</p><p><blockquote>在《7种权力》一书中,汉密尔顿·赫尔默(Hamilton Helmer)写道,企业可以用来指导价值创造工作的七条护城河。赫尔默认为,通过将卓越运营与深思熟虑的护城河建设相结合,企业或许能够使自己具有持久的价值。这七种力量是:规模经济、网络效应、反向定位、转换成本、品牌、垄断资源和流程力量。</blockquote></p><p> Helmer outlines case studies of these moats represented by modern day enterprises. Pixar had the brain trust (Cornered Resource), Nike(NYSE:NKE)can charge more for a pair of shoes than competitors (Brand), and Netflix’s(NASDAQ:NFLX)content costs less to produce as it gains subscribers (Scale Economies). The most iconic companies in the world have two, maybe three moats.</p><p><blockquote>赫尔默概述了以现代企业为代表的这些护城河的案例研究。Pixar拥有智囊团(被垄断的资源),Nike(纽约证券交易所股票代码:NKE)可以为一双鞋收取比竞争对手(品牌)更高的费用,而Netflix(纳斯达克股票代码:NFLX)的内容制作成本随着订户的增加而降低(规模经济)。世界上最具标志性的公司有两条,也许三条护城河。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir (PLTR) has all seven.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir(PLTR)拥有全部七项。</blockquote></p><p> I know that sounds crazy because Palantir went public nine months ago, and yes, it remains unprofitable. Yes, the stock based compensation is corpulent. Yes, revenue is concentrated and yes, valuation is optimistic. Yes to all of it.</p><p><blockquote>我知道这听起来很疯狂,因为Palantir九个月前上市,是的,它仍然没有盈利。是的,基于股票的薪酬是丰厚的。是的,收入集中,是的,估值乐观。对所有这些都是肯定的。</blockquote></p><p> No take backs. Palantir has seven moats. Let me show you.</p><p><blockquote>没有收回。Palantir有七条护城河。让我给你看看。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Palantir's Scale Economies</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的规模经济</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>The quality of declining unit costs as volume increases</i></p><p><blockquote><i>随着数量的增加,单位成本下降的质量</i></blockquote></p><p> Palantir’s sales cycles are perhaps the most misunderstood aspect of their business model. Naysayers argue Palantir is a services company. Bag holders who bought at $35/share argue Palantir is a SaaS company. They’re both right.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir的销售周期可能是其商业模式中最被误解的方面。反对者认为Palantir是一家服务公司。以每股35美元的价格买入的购物者认为Palantir是一家SaaS公司。他们都是对的。</blockquote></p><p> Gotham and Foundry drive high margin, recurring software contracts for government and commercial customers alike. Meanwhile, Palantir parachutes in technical consultants to expand and mature these contracts. Palantir describes this sales cycle as “Acquire, Expand, and Scale.”</p><p><blockquote>Gotham和Foundry为政府和商业客户提供高利润的经常性软件合同。与此同时,Palantir引进技术顾问来扩大和成熟这些合同。Palantir将这个销售周期描述为“收购、扩张和规模化”。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Acquire</b></p><p><blockquote><b>获得</b></blockquote></p><p></p><p> While Palantir<i>is</i>a software company, it stands quite apart from others who share this label. For example, there are some differences between selling a software like Zoom (ZM) to an enterprise, and selling Foundry. As of Q1 2021, Palantir reported $8.1 million in annual revenue per customer. This staggering product revenue belies the value of Palantir’s offerings, but also underscores the complexity of their sales cycle.</p><p><blockquote>而Palantir<i>是</i>作为一家软件公司,它与其他分享这个标签的公司截然不同。例如,向企业销售Zoom(ZM)这样的软件和销售Foundry之间存在一些差异。截至2021年第一季度,Palantir报告每位客户的年收入为810万美元。这种惊人的产品收入掩盖了Palantir产品的价值,但也凸显了其销售周期的复杂性。</blockquote></p><p> In Palantir’s S-1, Acquire customers are described as those enjoying short-term pilot deployments of Palantir’s technology. Palantir operates these accounts at a loss, and notes this selling phase generally lasts 6-9 months on average.</p><p><blockquote>在Palantir的S-1中,Acquire客户被描述为享受Palantir技术短期试点部署的客户。Palantir亏本运营这些账户,并指出这一销售阶段通常平均持续6-9个月。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Expand</b></p><p><blockquote><b>扩大</b></blockquote></p><p> The second phase, Expand, is characterized by<i>value building.</i>Palantir focuses on understanding the customer’s challenges and delivering against them. These are customers who provide larger revenue contracts to Palantir, but also generally represent negative contribution margins.</p><p><blockquote>第二阶段,扩展,其特征是<i>价值建设。</i>Palantir专注于了解客户的挑战并应对这些挑战。这些客户向Palantir提供较大收入合同,但通常也代表负贡献利润率。</blockquote></p><p> I know, two stages in a row of unprofitable product delivery. However, this stage is marked by an almost viral expansion of Palantir’s personalized value creation, informed by 6 – 9 months of data ingestion and customer feedback during the Acquire phase. It is in this stage that Palantir’s offerings begin to merit the descriptor<i>bespoke.</i></p><p><blockquote>我知道,连续两个阶段的无利可图的产品交付。然而,这一阶段的特点是Palantir的个性化价值创造几乎呈病毒式扩张,这得益于收购阶段6-9个月的数据摄取和客户反馈。正是在这个阶段,Palantir的产品开始配得上这个描述<i>定制的。</i></blockquote></p><p> Expand is fueled by CEO Alex Karp himself, who, prior to the pandemic, spent 250 days a year visiting clients in person. This is perhaps the most ineffaceable contribution of Karp; the CEO served as a salesforce for a company that never had one. Palantir’s customers are whales. Karp is Captain Ahab.</p><p><blockquote>Expand是由首席执行官Alex Karp本人推动的,在大流行之前,他每年有250天亲自拜访客户。这也许是卡普最不可磨灭的贡献;这位首席执行官为一家从未有过销售人员的公司担任销售人员。Palantir的客户是鲸鱼。卡普是亚哈船长。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Scale</b></p><p><blockquote><b>比例</b></blockquote></p><p> The word “scale” is used a full 44 times in thePalantir S-1, and Palantir defines Scale customers as those contributing mature contracts with a positive contribution margin. During Scale, we witness a reversal of Palantir’s unit economics. As customer accounts mature, Palantir’s investment costs decrease. Customers can now operate independently, building their own applications on top of Foundry or Gotham. This results in new use cases, less services fees, and a greater proportion of high-margin recurring revenue.</p><p><blockquote>“规模”一词在Palantir S-1中被使用了整整44次,Palantir将规模客户定义为那些贡献具有正边际的成熟合同的客户。在规模化过程中,我们见证了Palantir单位经济效益的逆转。随着客户账户的成熟,Palantir的投资成本会降低。客户现在可以独立操作,在Foundry或Gotham之上构建自己的应用程序。这会带来新的用例、更少的服务费以及更大比例的高利润经常性收入。</blockquote></p><p> It is in the Scale phase of our partnerships with customers that we generally see contribution margin on particular accounts improve. In 2019, we generated $565.7 million in revenue from customers in the Scale phase, with a contribution margin of 55%.

As you sip your oat milk latte, you begin clicking through Foundry information dashboards, and slowly you explore and experiment with the Foundry platform. You realize you can run data-analytics on AI-infused applications, and begin identifying inefficiencies, which are shared with your team and supervisors (making you look quite brilliant).</p><p><blockquote>想象一下,你是奥克兰银行的一名穿着毛衣背心的软件工程师,刚刚同意进行代工试点。当您啜饮燕麦牛奶拿铁时,您开始点击Foundry信息仪表板,慢慢地探索和试验Foundry平台。你意识到你可以在注入人工智能的应用程序上运行数据分析,并开始识别效率低下的地方,这些地方与你的团队和主管分享(让你看起来很聪明)。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> As Foundry is used to identify optimization targets, developers begin building their own application layer on top of Foundry, which identifies new use cases and new applications, and new layers are added. Palantir’s network effects manifest as a digital opera cake; an indelible stack of use cases rising ever higher as utility begets utility. This is the second of Palantir’s moats.</p><p><blockquote>随着Foundry用于识别优化目标,开发人员开始在Foundry之上构建他们自己的应用层,它识别新的用例和新的应用,并添加新的层。Palantir的网络效应表现为数字歌剧蛋糕;随着效用产生效用,不可磨灭的用例堆栈越来越高。这是Palantir的第二条护城河。</blockquote></p><p> I believe there are sector-specific network effects in play as well. How much different would Palantir’s software deployment be for Boeing(NYSE:BA)as compared to current Palantir customer Airbus(OTCPK:EADSF)? Not much, I'd wager.</p><p><blockquote>我相信也有特定行业的网络效应在起作用。与Palantir当前客户空中客车公司(OTCPK:EADSF)相比,波音公司(NYSE:BA)的Palantir软件部署有多大不同?我敢打赌,不多。</blockquote></p><p> The Life Sciences sector, which Palantir identified as a major growth area moving forward is another example. Palantir revealed that a top 5 pharma company is using Foundry to integrate genotyping and lab data across thousands of clinical trials. This experience can be extended to<i>any</i>pharma company, and Palantir’s work with this customer allows foresight into the myriad use cases such companies would benefit from. Foresight here is not intangible; it results in accelerated product expansion at lower cost for each and every additional sector-specific customer who inks a deal with Palantir.</p><p><blockquote>生命科学领域是另一个例子,Palantir将其确定为未来的主要增长领域。Palantir透露,一家排名前5的制药公司正在使用Foundry来整合数千项临床试验的基因分型和实验室数据。这种经验可以推广到<i>任何</i>制药公司,Palantir与该客户的合作使我们能够预见此类公司将从中受益的无数用例。这里的远见不是无形的;对于与Palantir签署协议的每一个额外的特定行业客户来说,它可以以更低的成本加速产品扩展。</blockquote></p><p> This moat is borne out in the numbers, as Palantir’s largest customers continue to expand and renew larger contracts.</p><p><blockquote>随着Palantir最大的客户不断扩张并续签更大的合同,这条护城河在数字上得到了证实。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Palantir's</b> <b>Switching</b> <b>Costs</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的</b> <b>切换</b> <b>成本</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>Customers would incur value loss if they switched to a different product supplier</i></p><p><blockquote><i>如果客户转向不同的产品供应商,他们将遭受价值损失</i></blockquote></p><p> This is perhaps the easiest moat to highlight for Palantir. If you understand machine learning at a basic level, you might intuit how a data analytics company like Palantir would have high Switching Costs.</p><p><blockquote>这也许是Palantir最容易强调的护城河。如果您对机器学习有基本的了解,您可能会直觉到像Palantir这样的数据分析公司会有很高的转换成本。</blockquote></p><p> I believe there is a<i>point of no return</i>for customers somewhere in the Expand phase of the sales cycle. At this point, Foundry use cases are multiplying, efficiencies are being realized, and the software is becoming less a service and more the central operating system of the enterprise. In a given organization, petabytes of data have been collated by Palantir and refined into actionable processes, and each day Foundry knows the organizational needs a little bit better. Remember, this is likely 18 months into a customer relationship, and Foundry has become an everyday analytics tool in the company workflow.</p><p><blockquote>我相信有个<i>不归路</i>对于处于销售周期扩展阶段的客户。在这一点上,代工用例正在成倍增加,效率正在实现,软件正在变得越来越少的服务,而更多的是企业的中央操作系统。在给定的组织中,Palantir会整理数PB的数据并将其提炼为可操作的流程,Foundry每天都会更好地了解组织的需求。请记住,这可能是客户关系的18个月,Foundry已成为公司工作流程中的日常分析工具。</blockquote></p><p> I believe this is the point of no return, because the alternative here is unimaginable. First and foremost, who is this alternative software provider? Bueller? Even if there was a comparable service to Foundry, and there’s not, you would be starting entirely over again. Enterprises want to accelerate, no, hurtle towards a digital, AI-driven future. Try explaining to senior management we have to pull the plug 18 months in on Foundry because the price tag is too steep. You would have to go back to Day 0 with data collection, analysis and refining. It would be a duplication of effort, time and expense of the greatest scale. Somewhere in Expand you’re in too deep – if you turn off the lights, the ice cream melts.</p><p><blockquote>我相信这是不归路,因为这里的替代方案是不可想象的。首先,这个替代软件提供商是谁?布勒?即使有类似于Foundry的服务,但没有,你也要从头再来。企业希望加速,不,奔向数字化、人工智能驱动的未来。尝试向高级管理层解释,我们必须在18个月内停止代工业务,因为价格太高。您必须回到第0天进行数据收集、分析和提炼。这将是最大规模的努力、时间和费用的重复。在Expand的某个地方,你陷得太深了——如果你关灯,冰淇淋就会融化。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir’s largest contracts have been customers of Palantir the longest. This is not coincidence. It is a moat, Palantir's third. Switching costs only increase as customers become deeper users of Palantir products.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir最大的合同是Palantir最长的客户。这不是巧合。这是Palantir的第三条护城河。随着客户成为Palantir产品的深度用户,转换成本只会增加。</blockquote></p><p> Commodity software services will never enjoy the strategic advantage Palantir owns. Would it really be that big of a deal if your company switched from Skype to Zoom?</p><p><blockquote>商品软件服务永远不会享有Palantir所拥有的战略优势。如果你的公司从Skype转向Zoom,这真的有那么大的问题吗?</blockquote></p><p> <b>Palantir'sBranding</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的品牌</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>The durable attribution of higher value to an objectively identical offering that arises from historical information about the seller</i></p><p><blockquote><i>从卖方的历史信息中产生的客观上相同的产品的更高价值的持久属性</i></blockquote></p><p> The Branding moat is easier to understand in the context of basic consumer products, like Coca-Cola(NYSE:KO).

Hypothetically, however, let’s assume such a company exists.</p><p><blockquote>在数据分析软件中进行这种比较是一个挑战,因为我不相信Palantir有相同的产品。然而,假设一下,让我们假设这样一家公司存在。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir has built an iconic brand since its inception in 2003. Over the past 18 years, Palantir has been funded by the CIA, linked to the identification and killing of Osama Bin Laden, sued the U.S. Army and won, and has carefully curated a narrative of intrigue and ostensibly supernatural analytics capabilities. But this company image is not the Branding moat I aim to highlight here.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir自2003年成立以来已打造了一个标志性品牌。起诉美国,过去18年来,Palantir一直由中央情报局资助,与识别和击毙奥萨马·本·拉登有关。军队和胜利,并精心策划了一个阴谋和表面上超自然的分析能力的叙事。但这种公司形象并不是我在这里要强调的品牌护城河。</blockquote></p><p> This is the publicly traded company the<i>U.S. government hires to manage their nuclear program</i>. This is the company the NHS hires to manage PPE inventory and vaccine rollout during the greatest public health crisis of our time. Over the past two decades, Palantir has a track record of coming through in the most extreme circumstances our country faces. To the U.S. government, I would argue, there is no software company that better epitomizes reliability and security than Palantir. That is an enduring brand.</p><p><blockquote>这是一家上市公司<i>美国政府雇佣员工来管理他们的核计划</i>.这是NHS雇佣的公司,在我们这个时代最大的公共卫生危机期间管理个人防护设备库存和疫苗推广。在过去的二十年里,Palantir拥有在我国面临的最极端情况下挺身而出的记录。我认为,对于美国政府来说,没有哪家软件公司比Palantir更能体现可靠性和安全性。这是一个经久不衰的品牌。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> The below press releases were announced over the past two months<i>alone</i>:</p><p><blockquote>以下是过去两个月发布的新闻稿<i>单独的</i>:</blockquote></p><p> <ul> <li>CDC Renews Partnership with Palantir for Disease Monitoring and Outbreak Response</li> <li>Palantir Awarded $111m Contract to Provide Mission Command Platform for the United States Special Operations Command</li> <li>Palantir and Space Force Expand Partnership</li> </ul> I don’t care how bearish you may be about Palantir’s valuation.

This is the Counter-Positioning moat.</p><p><blockquote>反向定位是一条独特的护城河,我认为数字钱包领域的Square(SQ)最能代表这一点。现有银行的行动完全是为了对抗Square的举措,部分原因是监管,部分原因是竞争被低估,但主要是因为提供数字钱包解决方案可能会蚕食银行的核心产品。这就是反定位护城河。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir’s Counter-Positioning moat is perhaps less obvious. First off, who is the incumbent? Palantir’s technology is so disruptive, it can be challenging to construe a natural competitor.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir的反向定位护城河可能不太明显。首先,谁是现任者?Palantir的技术极具颠覆性,因此很难理解天然竞争对手。</blockquote></p><p> For Gotham (Gov’t), the incumbent<i>was</i>the government; the U.S. Army, the DoD, the CIA, etc. Let’s wind back the clocks to 2015. The U.S. Army released a solicitation seeking bids to build the Distributed Common Ground System-Army (DCGS-A). This would be an integrated data analytics framework that could gather data from numerous sources, share data seamlessly across a suite of analytical tools and provide easy-to use visualization for soldiers in the field. Sound familiar? Sounds exactly like Palantir’s Gotham product to me.</p><p><blockquote>对于哥谭市(政府)来说,现任<i>什么</i>政府;美国。陆军、国防部、中央情报局等。让我们把时钟拨回到2015年。美国。陆军发布了一份招标书,寻求建造分布式通用地面系统-陆军(DCGS-A)。这将是一个集成的数据分析框架,可以从众多来源收集数据,跨一套分析工具无缝共享数据,并为战场上的士兵提供易于使用的可视化。听起来很熟悉?对我来说,这听起来就像Palantir的Gotham产品。</blockquote></p><p> DCGS-A was actually an internal Army project over a decade in the making at a development cost of $3 Billion. Palantir entered into the bidding at a much lower cost, but the Army elected to continue its own internal development. Palantir ultimately filed a lawsuit against the Army, arguing that Gotham provided the exact services the Army was attempting to build, and at a fraction of the cost. In October of 2016, a federal judge ruled in favor of Palantir (§ 2377), and established the precedent that the government must procure commercial services and products to the maximum practical extent. This was appealed by the Army, but later held up in the U.S. Court of Appeals in 2018.</p><p><blockquote>DCGS-A实际上是一个酝酿了十多年的陆军内部项目,开发成本为30亿美元。Palantir以低得多的成本参与了竞标,但陆军选择继续自己的内部开发。Palantir最终对陆军提起诉讼,辩称哥谭市提供了陆军试图建设的确切服务,而且成本只是陆军试图建设的一小部分。2016年10月,一名联邦法官做出了有利于Palantir(2377)的裁决,并开创了政府必须在最大实际范围内采购商业服务和产品的先例。陆军对此提出上诉,但后来于2018年在美国上诉法院维持原判。</blockquote></p><p> <p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/70fc6c13c9c0d3ca0b559fd48bdff1da\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"457\"><span>Source:Palantir S-1 Filing</span></p><p><blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><span>资料来源:Palantir S-1文件</span></p></blockquote></p><p> Palantir’s landmark lawsuit against the Army surprisingly resulted in a deepening relationship with the U.S. Government. In the year following the lawsuit, Palantir’s Army revenue equaled the sum of the eleven preceding years.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir针对陆军的里程碑式诉讼出人意料地加深了与美国政府的关系。诉讼发生后的一年,Palantir的陆军收入相当于前11年的总和。</blockquote></p><p> Similar to incumbent banks, there is something about size that begets bureaucracy and inertia. The U.S. government, for all its influence and power, either chose to underinvest in data analytics, moved too slowly, or underestimated the pace of innovation in the private sector. It was probably some of each.</p><p><blockquote>与现有银行类似,规模也会产生官僚主义和惰性。尽管美国政府拥有巨大的影响力和权力,但它要么选择在数据分析方面投资不足,行动过于缓慢,要么低估了私营部门的创新步伐。可能每种都有一些。</blockquote></p><p> These same competitive issues are manifesting in the private sector. Massive enterprise software behemoths like Oracle (ORCL) and SAP (SAP) have spent the past decade building out sales teams for ‘good enough’ products. Meanwhile, Palantir has been obsessively proliferating and refining their offerings (more on this later) without a recognizable salesforce. Palantir’s entire focus over the past 18 years was engineering great product, and the incumbents are just now sensing the deep, almost planetary groan of enterprise software culture shifting, the jeremiad of an opportunity missed.</p><p><blockquote>这些同样的竞争问题也出现在私营部门。甲骨文(ORCL)和SAP(SAP)等大型企业软件巨头在过去十年里一直在为“足够好”的产品建立销售团队。与此同时,Palantir在没有知名销售人员的情况下一直在痴迷地扩大和完善他们的产品(稍后将详细介绍)。Palantir在过去18年里的全部重点是设计伟大的产品,而现有企业现在刚刚感受到企业软件文化转变的深刻、几乎是全球性的呻吟,以及错失机会的哀叹。</blockquote></p><p> Palantir is deepening its Counter-Positioning moat by investing in several young, disruptive companies in the data analytics space. In my prior Palantir article,Palantir’s SPACs: Do You See What Karp Sees?, I outlined Palantir’s investments in these companies as opportunities to expand market reach and build a valuable portfolio.</p><p><blockquote>Palantir正在通过投资数据分析领域几家年轻、颠覆性的公司来深化其反定位护城河。在我之前的Palantir文章中,Palantir的SPAC:你看到卡普所看到的了吗?,我将Palantir对这些公司的投资概述为扩大市场覆盖范围和建立有价值的投资组合的机会。</blockquote></p><p> I have since added another layer to this analysis. These investment companies are not just expanding Palantir’s market reach, they are lighthouses for Palantir’s products, emissaries that may evince the velocity Foundry contributes to product roadmap and go to market pace. By partnering with these companies, Palantir is cementing its technological leadership and demonstrating commitment to the innovative product DNA its reputation is built around.</p><p><blockquote>从那以后,我在这个分析中又增加了一层。这些投资公司不仅扩大了Palantir的市场影响力,而且还是Palantir产品的灯塔,是可能表明velocity Foundry对产品路线图和上市步伐做出贡献的使者。通过与这些公司合作,Palantir巩固了其技术领先地位,并展示了对其声誉所依据的创新产品DNA的承诺。</blockquote></p><p></p><p> <b>Palantir's</b> <b>Cornered Resources</b></p><p><blockquote><b>Palantir的</b> <b>被垄断的资源</b></blockquote></p><p> <i>Preferential access at attractive terms to a coveted asset that can independently enhance value</i></p><p><blockquote><i>以有吸引力的条款优先获得可以独立增值的令人垂涎的资产</i></blockquote></p><p> Palantir hoards two resources that confer a remarkable advantage over its competitors: technology and talent.

In Q1 2021, for example, Gotham was used to enable all 11 DoD Combatant Commands to generate integrated strategic decision advantage from intelligence, operations, logistics and supply data.

Palantir has all seven.\nThese moats will allow Palantir to build an enduringly impactful and profitable business.\n\nScott Olson/Getty Images\nNewsIntroduction: On Building a Dynasty\nIn the mid 16thcentury, Japan was engaged in all-out civil war.\nOda Nobunaga, a samurai regarded as the “Great Unifier” (or “Devil king,” on the battlefield) was emerging as the most powerful samurai warlord in all of Japan. His name had become synonymous with military brilliance, and he had a knack for unseating more powerful opponents.\nDespite the power of Nobunaga, a faction of the Buddhist faith, called the Ikkō (Single Minded) Ikki (League), began consolidating power, building fortresses and accumulating growing numbers of warrior monks. The Ikkō Ikki ultimately established themselves in the fortress of Ishiyama Hongan-ji (Stone Mountain) in what is modern day Osaka.\nBy the 1560’s Nobunaga had defeated all opposing samurai warlords in Japan, and only the Ikkō Ikki stood in the way of Nobunaga blanketing Japan with his hegemony.\nAnd so, in 1570 Nobunaga set out for Ishiyama Hongan-ji with 30,000 troops, many of whom were trained with early versions of rifles known as arquebuses. Nobunaga himself was armed with the Dōjigiri Yasutsuna: Japan’s most famous sword. Legend has it that the Dōjigiri Yasutsuna was used to kill the most terrifying demon of its time: the Shuten-Dōji.\nDespite the considerable weapons at his disposal, Nobunaga’s attack on the fortress of Ishiyama Hongan-ji was unsuccessful. For ten years his forces laid siege to Ishiyama, and for ten years he was repelled. Indeed, when the Ikkō Ikki finally surrendered in 1580, it was at the request of the Imperial Court rather than the fortress being overrun.\nSo how did the Ikkō Ikki fend off the most fearsome shogun in medieval Japan?\nA moat, of course.\nFlowing around the cathedral fortress of Ishiyama was an intricate labyrinth of moats surmounted by featureless walls. As a consequence of the moats, these walls could not be assaulted with siege towers or tunneled through. They could not be climbed or vaulted. It was unassailable.\nIn reference to this medieval structure that could provide defense against attackers for 10 years or more, the word “moat” has since become a common measure of a business’ longevity. I appreciate when history makes sense.\nPalantir’s Seven Moats\n\nGrowth is easy to measure, but durability isn’t. If you focus on near-term growth above all else, you miss the most important question you should be asking: will this business still be around a decade from now? Numbers alone won’t tell you the answer; instead you must think critically about the qualitative characteristics of your business.”\n\n-Peter Thiel, Founder & Chairman, Palantir\nIn 7 Powers, Hamilton Helmer writes about the seven moats a business may employ to guide value-creation efforts. By combining operational excellence with thoughtful moat-building, Helmer argues, a business may be able to make itself enduringly valuable. The seven powers are: Scale Economies, Network Effects, Counter-Positioning, Switching Costs, Branding, Cornered Resources, and Process Power.\nHelmer outlines case studies of these moats represented by modern day enterprises. Pixar had the brain trust (Cornered Resource), Nike(NYSE:NKE)can charge more for a pair of shoes than competitors (Brand), and Netflix’s(NASDAQ:NFLX)content costs less to produce as it gains subscribers (Scale Economies). The most iconic companies in the world have two, maybe three moats.\nPalantir (PLTR) has all seven.\nI know that sounds crazy because Palantir went public nine months ago, and yes, it remains unprofitable. Yes, the stock based compensation is corpulent. Yes, revenue is concentrated and yes, valuation is optimistic. Yes to all of it.\nNo take backs. Palantir has seven moats. Let me show you.\nPalantir's Scale Economies\nThe quality of declining unit costs as volume increases\nPalantir’s sales cycles are perhaps the most misunderstood aspect of their business model. Naysayers argue Palantir is a services company. Bag holders who bought at $35/share argue Palantir is a SaaS company. They’re both right.\nGotham and Foundry drive high margin, recurring software contracts for government and commercial customers alike. Meanwhile, Palantir parachutes in technical consultants to expand and mature these contracts. Palantir describes this sales cycle as “Acquire, Expand, and Scale.”\nAcquire\nWhile Palantirisa software company, it stands quite apart from others who share this label. For example, there are some differences between selling a software like Zoom (ZM) to an enterprise, and selling Foundry. As of Q1 2021, Palantir reported $8.1 million in annual revenue per customer. This staggering product revenue belies the value of Palantir’s offerings, but also underscores the complexity of their sales cycle.\nIn Palantir’s S-1, Acquire customers are described as those enjoying short-term pilot deployments of Palantir’s technology. Palantir operates these accounts at a loss, and notes this selling phase generally lasts 6-9 months on average.\nExpand\nThe second phase, Expand, is characterized byvalue building.Palantir focuses on understanding the customer’s challenges and delivering against them. These are customers who provide larger revenue contracts to Palantir, but also generally represent negative contribution margins.\nI know, two stages in a row of unprofitable product delivery. However, this stage is marked by an almost viral expansion of Palantir’s personalized value creation, informed by 6 – 9 months of data ingestion and customer feedback during the Acquire phase. It is in this stage that Palantir’s offerings begin to merit the descriptorbespoke.\nExpand is fueled by CEO Alex Karp himself, who, prior to the pandemic, spent 250 days a year visiting clients in person. This is perhaps the most ineffaceable contribution of Karp; the CEO served as a salesforce for a company that never had one. Palantir’s customers are whales. Karp is Captain Ahab.\nScale\nThe word “scale” is used a full 44 times in thePalantir S-1, and Palantir defines Scale customers as those contributing mature contracts with a positive contribution margin. During Scale, we witness a reversal of Palantir’s unit economics. As customer accounts mature, Palantir’s investment costs decrease. Customers can now operate independently, building their own applications on top of Foundry or Gotham. This results in new use cases, less services fees, and a greater proportion of high-margin recurring revenue.\n\n It is in the Scale phase of our partnerships with customers that we generally see contribution margin on particular accounts improve. In 2019, we generated $565.7 million in revenue from customers in the Scale phase, with a contribution margin of 55%. In H1 2020, those same customers generated $296.3 million in revenue, with a contribution margin of 68%.\n\nSource:Palantir S-1\nAnd also:\n\nWe believe that all of our customers will move into the Scale phase over the long term.We also believe that contribution margin for Scale phase accounts will increase further as we become more efficient at deploying our software platforms across the entirety of our customers’ operations and at managing and operating our software…In H1 2020, the top 25% of customers by contribution margin in the Scale phase as of the end of 2019 had a\n contribution margin during the period of 89%.\n\nSource:Palantir S-1, emphasis mine\nFor those of you wringing your clammy hands over Palantir’s inability to turn a profit, take notice:Palantir has just begun to leverage this moat to drive astronomical contribution margins approaching 90%.As Palantir converts more customers from Expand to Scale, margins will improve, costs will depress, and revenue concentration will diversify. As Palantir optimizes and in some cases automates software deployment, I expect the Acquire and Expand cycles shorten, allowing this flywheel to spin faster.\nSource:Palantir Q4 2020 Business Update\nPalantir's Network effects\nThe product becomes more valuable as more customers use the product\nIn Palantir’s S-1, “Generate Network Effects,” is listed within the First Principles section. They go on to describe how Palantir’s software becomes more valuable to the customer as more employees use the product.\n\n At a financial services customer, network effects enabled our platforms to scale from a single use case to more than 70 workstreams across compliance, front office, risk, and internal audit desks.\n\n-Source:Palantir’s S-1\nImagine, for a moment, you are a sweater-vest wearing software engineer at Okland Bank, who just agreed to a Foundry pilot. As you sip your oat milk latte, you begin clicking through Foundry information dashboards, and slowly you explore and experiment with the Foundry platform. You realize you can run data-analytics on AI-infused applications, and begin identifying inefficiencies, which are shared with your team and supervisors (making you look quite brilliant).\nAs Foundry is used to identify optimization targets, developers begin building their own application layer on top of Foundry, which identifies new use cases and new applications, and new layers are added. Palantir’s network effects manifest as a digital opera cake; an indelible stack of use cases rising ever higher as utility begets utility. This is the second of Palantir’s moats.\nI believe there are sector-specific network effects in play as well. How much different would Palantir’s software deployment be for Boeing(NYSE:BA)as compared to current Palantir customer Airbus(OTCPK:EADSF)? Not much, I'd wager.\nThe Life Sciences sector, which Palantir identified as a major growth area moving forward is another example. Palantir revealed that a top 5 pharma company is using Foundry to integrate genotyping and lab data across thousands of clinical trials. This experience can be extended toanypharma company, and Palantir’s work with this customer allows foresight into the myriad use cases such companies would benefit from. Foresight here is not intangible; it results in accelerated product expansion at lower cost for each and every additional sector-specific customer who inks a deal with Palantir.\nThis moat is borne out in the numbers, as Palantir’s largest customers continue to expand and renew larger contracts.\nPalantir's Switching Costs\nCustomers would incur value loss if they switched to a different product supplier\nThis is perhaps the easiest moat to highlight for Palantir. If you understand machine learning at a basic level, you might intuit how a data analytics company like Palantir would have high Switching Costs.\nI believe there is apoint of no returnfor customers somewhere in the Expand phase of the sales cycle. At this point, Foundry use cases are multiplying, efficiencies are being realized, and the software is becoming less a service and more the central operating system of the enterprise. In a given organization, petabytes of data have been collated by Palantir and refined into actionable processes, and each day Foundry knows the organizational needs a little bit better. Remember, this is likely 18 months into a customer relationship, and Foundry has become an everyday analytics tool in the company workflow.\nI believe this is the point of no return, because the alternative here is unimaginable. First and foremost, who is this alternative software provider? Bueller? Even if there was a comparable service to Foundry, and there’s not, you would be starting entirely over again. Enterprises want to accelerate, no, hurtle towards a digital, AI-driven future. Try explaining to senior management we have to pull the plug 18 months in on Foundry because the price tag is too steep. You would have to go back to Day 0 with data collection, analysis and refining. It would be a duplication of effort, time and expense of the greatest scale. Somewhere in Expand you’re in too deep – if you turn off the lights, the ice cream melts.\nPalantir’s largest contracts have been customers of Palantir the longest. This is not coincidence. It is a moat, Palantir's third. Switching costs only increase as customers become deeper users of Palantir products.\nCommodity software services will never enjoy the strategic advantage Palantir owns. Would it really be that big of a deal if your company switched from Skype to Zoom?\nPalantir'sBranding\nThe durable attribution of higher value to an objectively identical offering that arises from historical information about the seller\nThe Branding moat is easier to understand in the context of basic consumer products, like Coca-Cola(NYSE:KO). I would probably pay double for a Coca-Cola than a Koka Kola, for example.\nMaking this comparison in data analytics software is challenged because I don’t believe there is an identical offering to Palantir. Hypothetically, however, let’s assume such a company exists.\nPalantir has built an iconic brand since its inception in 2003. Over the past 18 years, Palantir has been funded by the CIA, linked to the identification and killing of Osama Bin Laden, sued the U.S. Army and won, and has carefully curated a narrative of intrigue and ostensibly supernatural analytics capabilities. But this company image is not the Branding moat I aim to highlight here.\nThis is the publicly traded company theU.S. government hires to manage their nuclear program. This is the company the NHS hires to manage PPE inventory and vaccine rollout during the greatest public health crisis of our time. Over the past two decades, Palantir has a track record of coming through in the most extreme circumstances our country faces. To the U.S. government, I would argue, there is no software company that better epitomizes reliability and security than Palantir. That is an enduring brand.\nThe below press releases were announced over the past two monthsalone:\n\nCDC Renews Partnership with Palantir for Disease Monitoring and Outbreak Response\nPalantir Awarded $111m Contract to Provide Mission Command Platform for the United States Special Operations Command\nPalantir and Space Force Expand Partnership\n\nI don’t care how bearish you may be about Palantir’s valuation. There is no software company that has the brand value Palantir does with the U.S. government and her allies abroad. As Palantir expands into commercial vectors with clients evermore concerned about cybersecurity, and data fidelity… what competitor can point to the resume Palantir can? When the margin of error must be zero, and you are looking down the barrel of a no fail scenario, bet on Palantir.\nPalantir's Counter-Positioning\nA newcomer adopts a new, superior business model which the incumbent does not mimic due to anticipated damage to their existing business\nCounter-positioning is a unique moat, I think best represented by Square (SQ) in the digital wallet space. Incumbent banks have moved with all the intention of an ice floe to counter Square’s moves, partly due to regulation, partly due to underestimated competition, but mostly because offering digital wallet solutions could cannibalize banks’ core products. This is the Counter-Positioning moat.\nPalantir’s Counter-Positioning moat is perhaps less obvious. First off, who is the incumbent? Palantir’s technology is so disruptive, it can be challenging to construe a natural competitor.\nFor Gotham (Gov’t), the incumbentwasthe government; the U.S. Army, the DoD, the CIA, etc. Let’s wind back the clocks to 2015. The U.S. Army released a solicitation seeking bids to build the Distributed Common Ground System-Army (DCGS-A). This would be an integrated data analytics framework that could gather data from numerous sources, share data seamlessly across a suite of analytical tools and provide easy-to use visualization for soldiers in the field. Sound familiar? Sounds exactly like Palantir’s Gotham product to me.\nDCGS-A was actually an internal Army project over a decade in the making at a development cost of $3 Billion. Palantir entered into the bidding at a much lower cost, but the Army elected to continue its own internal development. Palantir ultimately filed a lawsuit against the Army, arguing that Gotham provided the exact services the Army was attempting to build, and at a fraction of the cost. In October of 2016, a federal judge ruled in favor of Palantir (§ 2377), and established the precedent that the government must procure commercial services and products to the maximum practical extent. This was appealed by the Army, but later held up in the U.S. Court of Appeals in 2018.\nSource:Palantir S-1 Filing\nPalantir’s landmark lawsuit against the Army surprisingly resulted in a deepening relationship with the U.S. Government. In the year following the lawsuit, Palantir’s Army revenue equaled the sum of the eleven preceding years.\nSimilar to incumbent banks, there is something about size that begets bureaucracy and inertia. The U.S. government, for all its influence and power, either chose to underinvest in data analytics, moved too slowly, or underestimated the pace of innovation in the private sector. It was probably some of each.\nThese same competitive issues are manifesting in the private sector. Massive enterprise software behemoths like Oracle (ORCL) and SAP (SAP) have spent the past decade building out sales teams for ‘good enough’ products. Meanwhile, Palantir has been obsessively proliferating and refining their offerings (more on this later) without a recognizable salesforce. Palantir’s entire focus over the past 18 years was engineering great product, and the incumbents are just now sensing the deep, almost planetary groan of enterprise software culture shifting, the jeremiad of an opportunity missed.\nPalantir is deepening its Counter-Positioning moat by investing in several young, disruptive companies in the data analytics space. In my prior Palantir article,Palantir’s SPACs: Do You See What Karp Sees?, I outlined Palantir’s investments in these companies as opportunities to expand market reach and build a valuable portfolio.\nI have since added another layer to this analysis. These investment companies are not just expanding Palantir’s market reach, they are lighthouses for Palantir’s products, emissaries that may evince the velocity Foundry contributes to product roadmap and go to market pace. By partnering with these companies, Palantir is cementing its technological leadership and demonstrating commitment to the innovative product DNA its reputation is built around.\nPalantir's Cornered Resources\nPreferential access at attractive terms to a coveted asset that can independently enhance value\nPalantir hoards two resources that confer a remarkable advantage over its competitors: technology and talent. I’m going to start with Thiel’s definition of technological advantage. It’s ambitious, but Palantir clears this bar.\n\n As a good rule of thumb, proprietary technology must be at least 10 times better than its closest substitute in some important dimension to lead to a real monopolistic advantage.”\n\n- Peter Thiel, Co-Founder & Chairman, Palantir,Zero to One\nTen times better. When the product offered is 10x better than the alternative, amazing things can happen. SpaceX’s (SPACE) rockets are 10x more efficient than NASA’s, meeting your next boyfriend is 10x easier on Bumble (BMBL) than it is in your local bar, and streaming Lord of the Rings on Netflix (NFLX) is 10x easier than driving to Best Buy (BBY) to wrangle up a set of DVDs.\nAlthough it’s early days, Palantir’s software already appears to be 10x better than competitors in several ways. In Q1 2021, for example, Gotham was used to enable all 11 DoD Combatant Commands to generate integrated strategic decision advantage from intelligence, operations, logistics and supply data. This capability otherwisenever existed. Palantir’s software is so advanced it continues to invent new use cases, which is a testament to the logarithmic improvement these offerings represent.\nSource:Palantir Q4 2020 Business Update\nAnd Palantir continues to out-innovate competitors. In Palantir’s Q4 2020 earning presentation, they provided an update on trajectory towards a DoD Impact Level 6 (IL-6) status. They are one of only four IL-5 companies (Mission Critical Information National Security Systems) in the world, and are targeting IL-6, which would make them the first SaaS for Classified Secret National Security Systems. For frame of reference, IL-2 companies include data analytics giants Snowflake (SNOW) and Google (GOOG).\nPalantir’s data are better because Palantir’s data quality is better. For as much import as we place on data volume in analytics, data quality is even more prized. Gotham has been humming in the mud, in space, and on the ocean floor more than a decade, informed by the harshest and most demanding scenarios. Gotham is battle tested enterprise software.\nPalantir’s second Cornered Resource is talent. Karp’s reported nose for and ability to seduce top engineering talent has resulted in a who’s who roster almost impossible to emulate.\nAs an investor, I am okay with Palantir bears doodling out their diluted cash flow models and how stock based compensation affects it. But these bears cannot in the same breath:\n\nComplain about Palantir’s SBC and--\nArgue Palantir does not have a moat of engineering talent\n\nPalantir is incentivizing engineering and product talent with SBC and an opportunity to change the world. If one NFL team had no salary cap, every position would be filled with the top player in The League. That is what Karp has done.\nPalantir's Process Power\nEmbedded company organization and activity sets enabling lower costs and/or superior product, and which can be matched only by an extended commitment\nProcess Power is Palantir's seventh, and final, moat. The most obvious examples are product deployment speed and the comprehensive nature of Palantir’s offerings.\n\n An energy supermajor deployed our ERP suite in hours. Within two weeks, they generated $57 million of cash savings and expect to generate $1 billion on an annualized basis.\n\n-Palantir Q3 2020 Business Update\nTraditional high touch software solutions offered by competitors are delivered in roadmap fashion, with an ultimate product delivery sometimes months or even years down the road. Palantir’s software can be deployed and benefits realized within hours.\nIn addition, there are no competitors that have the sweeping data analytics offerings Palantir does. This means customers who are not using Palantir are burdened with licensing fees from dozens of separate companies whose software oftentimes doesn’t communicate with each other.\nSource:The Generalist\nPalantir has built a full stack of data analytics applications and continues to do so as needed for clients. The resulting product offering is so compelling and so rapidly delivered that Palantir does not have any direct competitors. In the above chart, Palantir's 19 product applications are outlined, with brief descriptions and which competitors offer a comparable product. Notice that the next most comprehensive offering comes from Tableau, and has only four products overlapping with Palantir.\nSource: Me, with help from Palantir’s S-1 filing\nWhen I initially began writing notes about Palantir’s Process Power, features such as product deployment speed and their comprehensive nature were immediately apparent. However, the more I reflected on Palantir’s business model, the more I began to see a second moat, one that is wider and deeper.\nPerhaps Palantir’s greatest strategic advantage is that its products offer the Process Power moat to its customers.\nSaid another way, Foundry and Gotham allow customers to build their own Process Power moat. If you are a Fortune 100 company using Palantir, your lead over competitors widens as your supply chains achieve resonance, inefficiencies are trimmed and the product roadmap slope goes vertical. Palantir's software allows customers to look into the very seeing stone it was named for.\nPalantir recognized this moat, which is why they are investing aggressively in early data companies – so they might take share in rapidly growing businesses defended by Palantir’s moats.\nPalantir Final Thoughts\nI am fascinated with the concept of building a fortress-like business with the staying power of a dynasty. There are only a few companies that can boast Palantir’s mélange of seven powers, and none exist in the data analytics sector.

Electric vehicle (EV) sales are expected to jump from 1.7 million in 2020 to 8.5 million just by 2025, and to 26 million 10 years from now, according to industry research providerBloombergNEF. And the firm expects EV sales to more than double again in the following 10 years.Charging station network leader ChargePoint Holdings(NYSE:CHPT) is established in the business, and investors in this company could ride the explosive EV growth trend.De-SPAC resultsChargePoint went public on March 1 through a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) merger. But unlike somede-SPAC companiesin the EV space, the company has so far met its sales expectations and kept its future outlook unchanged. That's because it was already an established business before going public, with more than 4,000 commercial and fleet customers, and more than 132,000 charging locations on its network in North America and Europe.There is, and will be, plenty of competition in this space. But ChargePoint exists as one of the largest compared to other domestic and international players. Past and estimated future revenue of several in the sector are shown below.Company2021 Revenue Estimate (million)2020 Revenue (million)ChargePoint$200$146EVBox$145$84Volta$47$25EVgo$20$14Blink ChargingNP*$6.2DATA SOURCE: COMPANY FINANCIALS. *NOT PROVIDEDChargePoint is the current favoriteChargePoint already has a large lead in North America with a 70% share of Level 2 charging networks, which use 240-volt power. Its comprehensive network of offerings also includes more than 2,000 publicly available fast-charging stations. Its suite of products caters to the needs of EV fleet owners, parking operators, and consumers, as well as corporations and municipalities.And in a sign of how large the market can grow, President Joe Biden has proposed installing 500,000 new charging stations in the U.S. as part of an infrastructure initiative. He also intends to electrify bus fleets and government vehicle fleets. While ChargePoint supports the infrastructure package, and would almost certainly be a beneficiary of its passage, the company doesn't need that catalyst for its charging network to grow rapidly.Investors should play the odds and think long-termBetting on the EV sector is not a short-term strategy. But if the exponential global growth to more than 54 million vehicles by 2040 materializes, today's high valuations in the sector could eventually be more than justified. Just looking at the two with the highest and lowest 2020 revenue, respectively, theprice-to-sales ratiosare about 50 for ChargePoint, but 250 for Blink Charging(NASDAQ:BLNK).A bet on the charging network sector has no guarantee of success, of course.
