(Reuters) – Palantir Technologies Inc is aiming to file confidentially with U.S. regulators for a public listing in the coming weeks, according to people familiar with the matter.
The company is still deliberating whether to go public via a traditional initial public offering (IPO) or a direct listing, the sources said, requesting anonymity as the deliberations are private.
A spokeswoman for Palantir, which specializes in crunching and analyzing large quantities of data, declined to comment.
