Roblox Downgraded to Neutral on Soft Third Quarter Outlook, Lack of Visibility, Wedbush Says

Roblox (RBLX) has "near-zero forward visibility" as weakening player monetization triggered disappointing third-quarter guidance and the company withdrew its full-year outlook, Wedbush Securities said Friday.The video game platform projected Thursday third-quarter bookings in the range of $1.58 billion to $1.65 billion, down 14% to 18% year over year. Analysts in a FactSet survey expect $1.72 billion.The company reported bookings of $1.56 billion in the quarter ending June 30, up from $1.44 billion a year earlier and missing analysts' estimates of $1.60 billion.The brokerage said Roblox's second quarter miss stemmed from decelerating monetization among under-13 users in North America rather than an expected user growth decline, even as daily active users and engagement hours met consensus market expectations."With this backdrop, we can no longer justify our positive stance here and are therefore downgrading to neutral," Wedbush Analysts wrote. The firm downgraded its rating on Roblox stock to neutral from outperform and reduced the price target to $40 from $65.Shares of the company were down 27% in Friday afternoon trading and have fallen 56% this year.Roblox recently shifted its discovery strategy with algorithms focusing on long-term user retention, Chief Executive David Baszucki said during the earnings call, according to a FactSet transcript. "We have seen this impact monetization, primarily in the US under 13 cohort, and this has been exemplified by a lower frequency of impressions with games that emphasize short-term monetization rather than long-term retention."Chief Financial Officer Naveen Chopra said internal testing indicates long-term retention gains will "more than offset" the temporary hit to bookings."Monetization is soft while investment is rising, and beyond building better tools and incentives for developers to make more engaging, more monetizable 18+ content, much of the outcome is now out of Roblox's hands," Wedbush added.Earlier this year, the video game platform implemented an age-check feature for accessing chat, and by the end of the second quarter, 57% of global daily active users had age-checked.

Roblox Offering Limited Visibility After Withdrawing 2026 Guidance, Wedbush Says

Roblox (RBLX) is offering investors limited earnings visibility after withdrawing its full-year 2026 guidance, citing weaker-than-expected monetization trends and a softer outlook for Q3, Wedbush said in a Friday note.Roblox guided Q3 bookings to between $1.58 billion to $1.65 billion, below the $1.84 billion market consensus, Wedbush said, noting that monetization appears weakest among users under age 13 in the US and Canada.Monetization has been pressured by a shift toward evergreen games and changes to Roblox's recommendation algorithm focused on long-term user retention, while increased investment in developer tools and 18 plus content also weighed on results, the investment firm said.Wedbush lowered its bookings and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization forecasts for 2026 through 2028, including cutting its 2026 bookings estimate to $6.82 billion from $7.40 billion and its adjusted EBITDA forecast to $1.14 billion from $1.51 billion.Wedbush downgraded the stock to neutral from outperform and lowered its price target to $40 from $65.Roblox shares were down more than 28% in Friday trading.Price: $34.45, Change: $-14.22, Percent Change: -29.22%

Take-Two Interactive's 'GTA VI' Pricing Suggests Incremental Upside to Financials, B. Riley Says

Take-Two Interactive Software's (TTWO) financials are poised to get a boost from the higher-than-expected pricing of the "Grand Theft Auto VI" video game, B. Riley Securities said in a note e-mailed Thursday.In a Wednesday update, the video game publisher's Rockstar Games said pre-orders for the highly anticipated title would begin Thursday, with the base edition introduced at $79.99. The game will be available on Sony's (SONY) PlayStation and Microsoft's (MSFT) Xbox platforms.B. Riley said the game's price is $10 higher than originally modeled and the industry standard for a new triple A game on current-generation console systems."We view this update favorably given it insinuates confidence in the quality of the game (and) suggests incremental upside to financials -- keeping unit volume unchanged implies an incremental ($300 million-plus) to net bookings in our model," B. Riley analyst Drew Crum said in a note to clients.The brokerage now projects Take-Two's non-GAAP earnings at $8 per share for 2027 and $9.75 for 2028, compared with its prior outlooks of $7.52 and $9.36, respectively. B. Riley's unit estimates for GTA VI are unchanged at 37 million and 28.9 million for 2027 and 2028, respectively, according to the note.The latest update from Rockstar also offers another data point that confirms the game's Nov. 19 launch date remains intact, Crum said.GTA VI was originally slated to come out in 2025, but was delayed first to May 26 this year and then to Nov. 19.B. Riley sees Rockstar's update favorably for Turtle Beach (TBCH) and the video game industry. It is neutral in terms of impact to Corsair Gaming (CRSR) and Roblox (RBLX), and "potentially negative for other parts of our universe as the game consumes mindshare and limited entertainment time," Crum wrote.Price: $233.81, Change: $-1.91, Percent Change: -0.81%
