However, if that was all there was to Roblox, then it would not likely be trading at a PS ratio of 40.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6f55c95c8bc74d8fa11a7a39c48feae2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"454\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Presentation</span></p>\n<p>Roblox was designed almost from the beginning to be a human co-experience platform, which is now being more commonly called the Metaverse. The company's end goal is to have all human experiences that can be imagined to be available to be experienced with friends and family on the Roblox platform.</p>\n<blockquote>\n Roblox's mission is to build a human co-experience platform that enables billions of users to come together to play, learn, communicate, explore and expand their friendships.\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source:Roblox Corporate Overview\n</blockquote>\n<p>The concept of the Metaverse or a human co-experience platform is still a very speculative idea but if Roblox successfully gets a Metaverse platform up and running worldwide, it will stand to gain significant first mover advantages and could totally replace today's major social networks like Facebook. The upside in Roblox is potentially being larger than Facebook is today, if the company is successful. In fact, at least part of the reason that I think Facebook(NASDAQ:FB)&nbsp;changed its name to Meta&nbsp;and branded itself a Metaverse company is because I think Mark Zuckerberg sees the potential of Facebook getting disrupted by Roblox.</p>\n<p><b>What is the business model?</b></p>\n<p>Let me give a brief explanation on how the Roblox is monetized. Roblox uses a freemium model, where games are free to play but advanced features and customizations are only unlocked through paying with an in-game currency called Robux, which can be purchased either through gift cards, ala carte or through subscription.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02f69d2443db16542467c22831dfc32c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"389\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Investor Day Presentation</span></p>\n<p>Growth on the Roblox platform is largely organic and largely operates through word-of-mouth. There are two viral growth network effects associated with the platform, with one loop centered around content and the other loop centered around a social network.</p>\n<p>In the content loop, developers and creators are the prime engine of growth by creating the content that powers the platform. The content attracts players which pay for the content, which allows developers to both make a living and reinvest the money they make into building better experiences. The better experiences result in even more players, higher engagement and more spend, which in turn attracts new developers and creators, while incentivizing existing creators and developers to create even more and higher quality experiences.</p>\n<p>In Roblox's social network loop, players will play games with their friends, then invite even more of their friends to play the games which drives organic growth. The value of the Roblox platform increases to an individual when more of their friends play together. More friends and better experiences drive even more players to join.</p>\n<p>This social network loop aspect of Roblox is also a huge competitive advantage for the company, as players want to play the games that they create with their friends, and it tends to make Roblox very sticky. This competitive advantage will also likely at some point turn into a powerful&nbsp;Network Effect Moat, if enough users join the platform.</p>\n<p><b>The Key Factor</b></p>\n<p>The key factor that drives monetization on the platform is engagement. The more engagement there is, the healthier the platform.</p>\n<blockquote>\n Engagement is our north star. We're very pleased that during the third quarter, people of all ages from across the globe chose to spend over 11 billion hours on Roblox\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source: Roblox CEO David Baszucki - Roblox Q3 2021 Shareholder Letter\n</blockquote>\n<p>Roblox measures engagement through two metrics which are Daily Active Users (\"DAUs\") and hours engaged. In Q3, Roblox attracted an average of 47.3 million daily active users (DAUs) which was 31% higher than in Q3 of 2020 and was 2.6x larger than in Q3 of 2019. Users spent 11.2 billion hours engaged on the Roblox platform in Q3 of 2021, up 28% from Q3 in 2020 and up 3x over Q3 of 2019. From these increasing engagement numbers, Roblox is able to support its developer community, who earned over $130 million in the quarter and is on pace to earn well over $500 million this year.</p>\n<p>Roblox experienced severe headwinds in late October this year, as the company experienced a&nbsp;platform outage&nbsp;that shut everything down for three days. Prior to the outage, daily active users in October were 50.5 million, up 43% year-over-year. Hours of engagement in October were 3.2 billion, up 41% year-over-year. These numbers are an indication that Q4 numbers are likely to be strong when they get reported.</p>\n<p><b>What are the growth drivers Moving Forward?</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/282a44eac5fa5aa525e22bb65ba76c05\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"435\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Presentation</span></p>\n<p>The four growth drivers that the company self-identified as a priority moving forward are:</p>\n<ol>\n <li>Extend International reach</li>\n <li>Broaden age demographics</li>\n <li>Expand how people use platform with new use cases</li>\n <li>Grow how engagement is monetized on platform</li>\n</ol>\n<p><b>International Expansion</b></p>\n<p>Of the four growth drivers, Roblox considers international expansion the most advanced. Currently, the rest of the world (\"ROW\") is growing faster than the USA and Canada together, which is currently at only 25% of the traffic on the platform. International Growth, like the US, occurs primarily through strong organic word of mouth in both users and developers.</p>\n<p>Roblox has also been developing powerful machine translation infrastructure, soon to be complete, that should be a big driver for international growth. This translation infrastructure will have the capability of doing translation into all&nbsp;supported languages, which is currently sitting at 11 different languages. In prior years, Roblox experiences had to be manually translated by the developer.</p>\n<p><b>Broaden Age Demographics</b></p>\n<p>Up until now, Roblox has shown great success reaching the 13 and under audience. However, for Roblox to reach its goals, the platform will have to broaden its demographics into a brand that appeals to all ages. The company plans to do this in several ways:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Enable developers to build more polished experiences that will appeal to a wider range of users. Roblox is already giving tools to its developers to begin offering deeply immersive experiences through dynamic simulation, faster loading, and more sophisticated rendering.</li>\n <li>Rapidly evolve avatar technology to be more realistic. Roblox management considers avatars important because it was discovered that they promote loyalty, engagement and an investment by the user in their virtual identity. Roblox plans on giving users a wider range of identity options, as well as giving users more options in clothing. Another area that Roblox needed improvement was facial animation. In December 2020, Roblox acquired facial tracking and animation company Loom.ai in a bid to make avatars more lifelike by doing things like giving them the ability to smile and make eye gestures.</li>\n <li>Create better User Matching through better personalized recommendations based upon age, geography, and social graphing skill level. Roblox has also been working on content ratings based upon age. Since launching personalized search and discovery, there has been increased engagement from users as well as a wider distribution of engagement across all experiences which helps expand demographics through core network effects.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Ultimately, as the technology on the Roblox platform improves, the ability to create content for older users will improve and as more content for older ages appears, it should attract older users. Roblox is still in the very early stages of expanding the age demographics, yet is already seeing better usage in ages above 13. The 17-24 years old segment is currently growing very rapidly. Measuring by DAUs, approximately 50.4% of users are over the age of 13 this year, compared to 44.5% last year and 51.2% of engagement was from users over the age of 13, up from 40.8% two years ago.</p>\n<p><b>Expanding How People Use the Platform</b></p>\n<p>Expanding how people use platform should greatly enhance both DAUs and engagement hours. The Roblox platform is essentially a medium of shared experiences and Roblox is currently in the process of expanding the range of those shared experiences beyond simply playing games to things like education, shared music experiences (concerts), virtual shopping, to maybe even one day working in virtual environments.</p>\n<p>Roblox recently held an&nbsp;Investor Day, in which the company announced they were setting up a \"Roblox Education\" division that aims \"to support 100 million students learning on the Roblox platform by 2030\". Roblox plans to do this by building dynamic learning environments that educators can use to create educational content and to teach people how to code on the Roblox platform.</p>\n<p>Roblox is also creating a&nbsp;$10 million fund&nbsp;dedicated \"to bringing high-quality educational experiences to Roblox and to support educators in using Roblox Studio in their classrooms\". The company has major plans to use Roblox Studio to help teach \"computer science, design, and development courses\" to millions of children.</p>\n<p>The stock has continued rising after its initial 42% jump after earnings and that is largely due to excitement over the news of Roblox expanding outside of games. Investors are just now becoming aware of the possibilities of the platform.</p>\n<p><b>Growing The Roblox Economy</b></p>\n<p>Roblox plans on expanding the whole economic system that was built around gaming into other economic activities like \"high quality immersive brand advertising that is native and authentic\". Advertising is only the start because ultimately shopping in virtual stores could make its way on to the Roblox platform.</p>\n<p>The basic building blocks to improving economic activity on the Roblox platform identified by the company include:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Removing friction in purchasing Robux on the platform. One example of Robux friction removal is the introduction of the&nbsp;Roblox premium subscription&nbsp;offering. Roblox premium offers two things for subscribers which are providing premium subscribers with a stipend of recurring Robux at a discounted rate and also providing premium features like a VIP pass that enables subscribers to get access to premium only features or items only available for purchase with a premium subscription. What this does for Roblox is turn the platform into more of a subscription offering, which increases the stability of Roblox bookings.</li>\n <li>Making the process of purchasing the avatar and gear associated with the avatar, much easier. Also, improving how merchandise is created and sold on the platform. Roblox has long ago made the decision to make a move to a 100% user-generated content (\"UGC\") avatar marketplace. Prior to 2020, the avatar marketplace was primarily populated by Roblox designed items. Roblox is still relatively early in this transition to UGC.</li>\n <li>Testing ways to have select brands participate in the Roblox economy and engage with users in a way that enhances the user experience, which includes working with brands to sell branded merchandise in a catalogue. There are several examples of branding. One is with Disney(NYSE:DIS)having&nbsp;<i>Avengers: Endgame</i>&nbsp;themed collectibles&nbsp;available to be won in a game, another is Roblox teaming up with the NFL for a&nbsp;Superbowl promotion.Other examples of brands working with Roblox are entertainment brands working with Roblox to help them debut new content using interactive experiences like&nbsp;Ready Player One, Avengers and Aquaman. Roblox has even held concerts online and worked with artists like&nbsp;Ava Max&nbsp;on launching a single that attracted 1 million users. Various brands have also become interested in establishing their own presence on Roblox and Roblox calls these Branded Worlds.

The metric ABPDAU is used to understand monetization trends across active users when they buy virtual currency and subscriptions. This number is also sort of a proxy for the value of the platform to Daily Active Users.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/20cec146a312fc52bb7b913c52ab34ef\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"358\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials</span></p>\n<p>The following graphic reconciles revenues to bookings and gives an investor a better idea of the relationship between revenues, deferred revenues and bookings.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5bc7c29257bf140ff5fb9035a7cf9d61\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"148\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Earnings Release</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/178bc75cc39aabe79f36b10cd48be30f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"358\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials</span></p>\n<p>Revenue in Q3 2021 was $509.3 million, an increase of 102% over Q3 2020.

The Developer Exchange Fee is the payout that developers can elect to receive by converting Robux back into real world cash, which Roblox reports as an expense. Infrastructure and Trust &amp; Safety are the costs associated with running&nbsp;Roblox cloud&nbsp;and the costs of operating the platform with security, safety and trust in mind.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e2df9d03933067820a908838201f50d5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"359\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials</span></p>\n<p>Roblox is still heavily in investment mode, so operating expenses far exceed GAAP Gross Profit, resulting in an operating loss in Q3 2021 of $77.45 million compared to an operating loss of $51.52 million from the prior year.</p>\n<p>Net loss attributable to common stockholders, which includes a portion of the net loss attributable to the Luobu subsidiary, was $74.0 million, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $48.6 million last year. Net losses increased due to the higher levels of expense required to support the growth of the business and the fact that Roblox defers a significant amount of revenue to later periods.</p>\n<p>Roblox anticipates reporting net losses in the near and medium term, while also generating positive cash from operations.

The average price target is $114.40 with a high forecast of $150.00 and a low forecast of $70.00. The average price target represents a 17% decrease from the last price of $134.72.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e21a864bc21a4c71e07dd8e4b52fac31\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<p><b>Short Term Risks</b>: Roblox now trades at a Price to Sales of 40, which is near the upper range of where it has traded since its IPO. This is a highly valued stock and if the company fails to execute and/or investors get nervous because of macroeconomic risks like rising interest rates, supply chain woes or potential war concerns over Taiwan, the stock could drop very rapidly.</p>\n<p>Another risk that has been a big knock on the stock of Roblox this year is that with lockdowns and school closures ending, it could affect engagement on the Roblox platform because the age demographics that currently use Roblox are mostly school age. Roblox's Q3 results has taken a lot of the wind out of the sails of that theory, as engagement is still healthy.</p>\n<p>Also, I don't think it is any accident that Roblox has announced a lot of education initiatives at its investor day. If Roblox is successful in getting educators to use Roblox in school systems around the country, then concerns that the school system will lower engagement from kids aged 7 to 18 will only go lower over time.</p>\n<p><b>Long Term Risk</b>: Roblox is a speculative stock. What investors are speculating on is that the concept of the Metaverse becomes popular and that Roblox will become one of the leading players in the Metaverse. If the Metaverse fails to reach the level of popularity that investors expect or Roblox fails to establish itself as one of the leading players in the Metaverse, then the stock will fall.</p>\n<p>Roblox will also have fierce competition in the Metaverse arena, including Meta, formerly known as Facebook and they will also have to face other large players like Nvidia's(NASDAQ:NVDA)&nbsp;Omniverse. Roblox currently has first mover advantages over most Metaverse players, as well as having the advantage of building the Roblox platform with trust and security in mind. This mindset is very different than Facebook, which sacrificed trust and security, in the name of growth on the Facebook platform. Roblox, on the other hand, took trust and security far more seriously very early on, probably after observing many of Facebook's mistakes in building a social network.</p>\n<p>Because of Roblox branding itself as safe and secure, any breach in that safety and security can damage the brand long term. Roblox has already had problems with its security, with some developers having found&nbsp;ways around restrictions&nbsp;around sexual content and dating, that Roblox wound up having to patch.</p>\n<p>Another concern is Roblox addiction. There is a fine line between driving more engagement and making children so addicted to the platform that they fail to develop real life social skills. Any adverse publicity on the topic of Roblox addiction where it is found that too much time in the Metaverse hurts people's mental health could hurt the company's long-term goal of raising engagement levels.</p>\n<p>Last but not least. Up until now, Roblox has been mostly for kids. Long-term, Roblox's business depends on its demographics spreading to adults. If Roblox fails in expanding its demographics, the stock will likely have far less upside than investors are currently enthusiastically pricing in.</p>\n<p><b>Conclusion</b></p>\n<p>Roblox stock is a buy for very aggressive investors willing to speculate on the upside of the Metaverse. This stock is selling at a high valuation, so less aggressive investors might want to wait for the stock to pull back.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The stock traded as high as $103.87 intraday in early June because of investor excitement over the possibility that Roblox could evolve into one of the first Metaverse companies.\nHowever, on June 15, Roblox released its May 2021 Key Metrics and the stock dropped 8% because of the perception that growth was slowing. The stock essentially stagnated by bouncing around between $70 and $90 until November 9th when the stock shot up 42% after reporting very strong Q3 earnings. Roblox was further propelled upwards by excitement over the company's future initiatives after the Roblox Investor Day on November 16.\n\nAfter such a massive move, that now has the stock back to trading at 40 times sales, investors might be wondering whether or not to chase the stock higher after such a huge move in a short period of time.\nData by YCharts\nReasons Why Roblox is Still a Buy\nRoblox started off simply as a platform where users could play games created by other users and share their own game creations to be played by others. However, if that was all there was to Roblox, then it would not likely be trading at a PS ratio of 40.\nSource: Roblox Presentation\nRoblox was designed almost from the beginning to be a human co-experience platform, which is now being more commonly called the Metaverse. The company's end goal is to have all human experiences that can be imagined to be available to be experienced with friends and family on the Roblox platform.\n\n Roblox's mission is to build a human co-experience platform that enables billions of users to come together to play, learn, communicate, explore and expand their friendships.\n\n\n Source:Roblox Corporate Overview\n\nThe concept of the Metaverse or a human co-experience platform is still a very speculative idea but if Roblox successfully gets a Metaverse platform up and running worldwide, it will stand to gain significant first mover advantages and could totally replace today's major social networks like Facebook. The upside in Roblox is potentially being larger than Facebook is today, if the company is successful. In fact, at least part of the reason that I think Facebook(NASDAQ:FB) changed its name to Meta and branded itself a Metaverse company is because I think Mark Zuckerberg sees the potential of Facebook getting disrupted by Roblox.\nWhat is the business model?\nLet me give a brief explanation on how the Roblox is monetized. Roblox uses a freemium model, where games are free to play but advanced features and customizations are only unlocked through paying with an in-game currency called Robux, which can be purchased either through gift cards, ala carte or through subscription.\nSource: Roblox Investor Day Presentation\nGrowth on the Roblox platform is largely organic and largely operates through word-of-mouth. There are two viral growth network effects associated with the platform, with one loop centered around content and the other loop centered around a social network.\nIn the content loop, developers and creators are the prime engine of growth by creating the content that powers the platform. The content attracts players which pay for the content, which allows developers to both make a living and reinvest the money they make into building better experiences. The better experiences result in even more players, higher engagement and more spend, which in turn attracts new developers and creators, while incentivizing existing creators and developers to create even more and higher quality experiences.\nIn Roblox's social network loop, players will play games with their friends, then invite even more of their friends to play the games which drives organic growth. The value of the Roblox platform increases to an individual when more of their friends play together. More friends and better experiences drive even more players to join.\nThis social network loop aspect of Roblox is also a huge competitive advantage for the company, as players want to play the games that they create with their friends, and it tends to make Roblox very sticky. This competitive advantage will also likely at some point turn into a powerful Network Effect Moat, if enough users join the platform.\nThe Key Factor\nThe key factor that drives monetization on the platform is engagement. The more engagement there is, the healthier the platform.\n\n Engagement is our north star. We're very pleased that during the third quarter, people of all ages from across the globe chose to spend over 11 billion hours on Roblox\n\n\n Source: Roblox CEO David Baszucki - Roblox Q3 2021 Shareholder Letter\n\nRoblox measures engagement through two metrics which are Daily Active Users (\"DAUs\") and hours engaged. In Q3, Roblox attracted an average of 47.3 million daily active users (DAUs) which was 31% higher than in Q3 of 2020 and was 2.6x larger than in Q3 of 2019. Users spent 11.2 billion hours engaged on the Roblox platform in Q3 of 2021, up 28% from Q3 in 2020 and up 3x over Q3 of 2019. From these increasing engagement numbers, Roblox is able to support its developer community, who earned over $130 million in the quarter and is on pace to earn well over $500 million this year.\nRoblox experienced severe headwinds in late October this year, as the company experienced a platform outage that shut everything down for three days. Prior to the outage, daily active users in October were 50.5 million, up 43% year-over-year. Hours of engagement in October were 3.2 billion, up 41% year-over-year. These numbers are an indication that Q4 numbers are likely to be strong when they get reported.\nWhat are the growth drivers Moving Forward?\nSource: Roblox Presentation\nThe four growth drivers that the company self-identified as a priority moving forward are:\n\nExtend International reach\nBroaden age demographics\nExpand how people use platform with new use cases\nGrow how engagement is monetized on platform\n\nInternational Expansion\nOf the four growth drivers, Roblox considers international expansion the most advanced. Currently, the rest of the world (\"ROW\") is growing faster than the USA and Canada together, which is currently at only 25% of the traffic on the platform. International Growth, like the US, occurs primarily through strong organic word of mouth in both users and developers.\nRoblox has also been developing powerful machine translation infrastructure, soon to be complete, that should be a big driver for international growth. This translation infrastructure will have the capability of doing translation into all supported languages, which is currently sitting at 11 different languages. In prior years, Roblox experiences had to be manually translated by the developer.\nBroaden Age Demographics\nUp until now, Roblox has shown great success reaching the 13 and under audience. However, for Roblox to reach its goals, the platform will have to broaden its demographics into a brand that appeals to all ages. The company plans to do this in several ways:\n\nEnable developers to build more polished experiences that will appeal to a wider range of users. Roblox is already giving tools to its developers to begin offering deeply immersive experiences through dynamic simulation, faster loading, and more sophisticated rendering.\nRapidly evolve avatar technology to be more realistic. Roblox management considers avatars important because it was discovered that they promote loyalty, engagement and an investment by the user in their virtual identity. Roblox plans on giving users a wider range of identity options, as well as giving users more options in clothing. Another area that Roblox needed improvement was facial animation. In December 2020, Roblox acquired facial tracking and animation company Loom.ai in a bid to make avatars more lifelike by doing things like giving them the ability to smile and make eye gestures.\nCreate better User Matching through better personalized recommendations based upon age, geography, and social graphing skill level. Roblox has also been working on content ratings based upon age. Since launching personalized search and discovery, there has been increased engagement from users as well as a wider distribution of engagement across all experiences which helps expand demographics through core network effects.\n\nUltimately, as the technology on the Roblox platform improves, the ability to create content for older users will improve and as more content for older ages appears, it should attract older users. Roblox is still in the very early stages of expanding the age demographics, yet is already seeing better usage in ages above 13. The 17-24 years old segment is currently growing very rapidly. Measuring by DAUs, approximately 50.4% of users are over the age of 13 this year, compared to 44.5% last year and 51.2% of engagement was from users over the age of 13, up from 40.8% two years ago.\nExpanding How People Use the Platform\nExpanding how people use platform should greatly enhance both DAUs and engagement hours. The Roblox platform is essentially a medium of shared experiences and Roblox is currently in the process of expanding the range of those shared experiences beyond simply playing games to things like education, shared music experiences (concerts), virtual shopping, to maybe even one day working in virtual environments.\nRoblox recently held an Investor Day, in which the company announced they were setting up a \"Roblox Education\" division that aims \"to support 100 million students learning on the Roblox platform by 2030\". Roblox plans to do this by building dynamic learning environments that educators can use to create educational content and to teach people how to code on the Roblox platform.\nRoblox is also creating a $10 million fund dedicated \"to bringing high-quality educational experiences to Roblox and to support educators in using Roblox Studio in their classrooms\". The company has major plans to use Roblox Studio to help teach \"computer science, design, and development courses\" to millions of children.\nThe stock has continued rising after its initial 42% jump after earnings and that is largely due to excitement over the news of Roblox expanding outside of games. Investors are just now becoming aware of the possibilities of the platform.\nGrowing The Roblox Economy\nRoblox plans on expanding the whole economic system that was built around gaming into other economic activities like \"high quality immersive brand advertising that is native and authentic\". Advertising is only the start because ultimately shopping in virtual stores could make its way on to the Roblox platform.\nThe basic building blocks to improving economic activity on the Roblox platform identified by the company include:\n\nRemoving friction in purchasing Robux on the platform. One example of Robux friction removal is the introduction of the Roblox premium subscription offering. Roblox premium offers two things for subscribers which are providing premium subscribers with a stipend of recurring Robux at a discounted rate and also providing premium features like a VIP pass that enables subscribers to get access to premium only features or items only available for purchase with a premium subscription. What this does for Roblox is turn the platform into more of a subscription offering, which increases the stability of Roblox bookings.\nMaking the process of purchasing the avatar and gear associated with the avatar, much easier. Also, improving how merchandise is created and sold on the platform. Roblox has long ago made the decision to make a move to a 100% user-generated content (\"UGC\") avatar marketplace. Prior to 2020, the avatar marketplace was primarily populated by Roblox designed items. Roblox is still relatively early in this transition to UGC.\nTesting ways to have select brands participate in the Roblox economy and engage with users in a way that enhances the user experience, which includes working with brands to sell branded merchandise in a catalogue. There are several examples of branding. One is with Disney(NYSE:DIS)having Avengers: Endgame themed collectibles available to be won in a game, another is Roblox teaming up with the NFL for a Superbowl promotion.Other examples of brands working with Roblox are entertainment brands working with Roblox to help them debut new content using interactive experiences like Ready Player One, Avengers and Aquaman. Roblox has even held concerts online and worked with artists like Ava Max on launching a single that attracted 1 million users. Various brands have also become interested in establishing their own presence on Roblox and Roblox calls these Branded Worlds. The first Branded World was launched with DC comics and today it has received millions of visitors. In an announcement made just recently, Nike(NYSE:NKE)teamed up with Roblox on building a 'Nikeland' virtual space.\n\nLet's now look at the earnings report that sent Roblox's stock up 42% in one day.\nRoblox Q3 2021 Earnings Report\nBefore getting into the revenues, I thought the following graphic from the Q3 2021 Supplemental materials would be very informative in describing how Roblox recognizes GAAP revenues:\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox Q3 2021 bookings grew 28% to $637.8 million compared to $496.5 million last year. For Roblox, booking growth is more important than revenue growth because bookings is actually recorded when people purchase Robux, but revenues are only recognized as users spend the Robux on the platform.\nThe company has also estimated October bookings between $177 million and $179 million, up 30% to 34% year-over-year, which is an indication that Q4 could also outperform.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nAverage bookings per daily active user (ABPDAU) was $13.49 in Q3 2021, compared to $13.73 last year. The small decline was due to a shift in the geographic mix of the user base. ABPDAU is defined as bookings in a given period divided by the DAUs for such period. The metric ABPDAU is used to understand monetization trends across active users when they buy virtual currency and subscriptions. This number is also sort of a proxy for the value of the platform to Daily Active Users.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nThe following graphic reconciles revenues to bookings and gives an investor a better idea of the relationship between revenues, deferred revenues and bookings.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Earnings Release\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRevenue in Q3 2021 was $509.3 million, an increase of 102% over Q3 2020. Cost of revenue totaled $130.0 million, up 98% year over year. Gross Profits were $379 million and Gross Margins were 74.47%.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nData by YCharts\nRoblox has additional Operating Expenses to the normal R&D, S&M, and G&A expenses, which are labelled by the company as Developer Exchange Fees and Infrastructure & Trust and Safety. The Developer Exchange Fee is the payout that developers can elect to receive by converting Robux back into real world cash, which Roblox reports as an expense. Infrastructure and Trust & Safety are the costs associated with running Roblox cloud and the costs of operating the platform with security, safety and trust in mind.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox is still heavily in investment mode, so operating expenses far exceed GAAP Gross Profit, resulting in an operating loss in Q3 2021 of $77.45 million compared to an operating loss of $51.52 million from the prior year.\nNet loss attributable to common stockholders, which includes a portion of the net loss attributable to the Luobu subsidiary, was $74.0 million, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $48.6 million last year. Net losses increased due to the higher levels of expense required to support the growth of the business and the fact that Roblox defers a significant amount of revenue to later periods.\nRoblox anticipates reporting net losses in the near and medium term, while also generating positive cash from operations. This occurs because deferred revenues are not included on the income statement, since deferred revenues are not considered revenue until they are earned, while, deferred revenues are included in the statement of cash flows.\nRoblox Q3 GAAP EPS of -$0.13 beats estimates by $0.01.\nYoung companies that are scaling often use a metric calledEBITDAbecause the early life stages of a company will often include a lot of financing and capital expenditures, which makes it hard to compare quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year operational profitability and efficiency.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox adjusted EBITDA dropped to $135.7 million from a year-ago $161 million, which is an indication that this company is very much in investment mode to build out the Metaverse, which has been a very hot theme in the market lately.\nBalance Sheet\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Earnings Release\nBalance sheet had $1.93 billion in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at the end of the quarter. There is no long-term debt on the balance sheet. The company has payables of $178.65 million.\nCash from operations, which is the amount of money a company brings in from its ongoing, regular business activities was $181.2 million.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox's Free Cash Flow, which is the amount of cash generated that is free and clear of all internal or external obligations, increased 7% over Q3 2020 to $170.6 million.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox currently has a very solid balance sheet, positive cash flows, and the company has the ability to fund its growth initiatives.\nAnalyst Price Targets\nSource: Yahoo Finance\nThe above is based on 10 Wall Street analysts offering 12-month price targets for Roblox in the last 3 months. The average price target is $114.40 with a high forecast of $150.00 and a low forecast of $70.00. The average price target represents a 17% decrease from the last price of $134.72.\n\nRisks\nShort Term Risks: Roblox now trades at a Price to Sales of 40, which is near the upper range of where it has traded since its IPO. This is a highly valued stock and if the company fails to execute and/or investors get nervous because of macroeconomic risks like rising interest rates, supply chain woes or potential war concerns over Taiwan, the stock could drop very rapidly.\nAnother risk that has been a big knock on the stock of Roblox this year is that with lockdowns and school closures ending, it could affect engagement on the Roblox platform because the age demographics that currently use Roblox are mostly school age. Roblox's Q3 results has taken a lot of the wind out of the sails of that theory, as engagement is still healthy.\nAlso, I don't think it is any accident that Roblox has announced a lot of education initiatives at its investor day. If Roblox is successful in getting educators to use Roblox in school systems around the country, then concerns that the school system will lower engagement from kids aged 7 to 18 will only go lower over time.\nLong Term Risk: Roblox is a speculative stock. What investors are speculating on is that the concept of the Metaverse becomes popular and that Roblox will become one of the leading players in the Metaverse. If the Metaverse fails to reach the level of popularity that investors expect or Roblox fails to establish itself as one of the leading players in the Metaverse, then the stock will fall.\nRoblox will also have fierce competition in the Metaverse arena, including Meta, formerly known as Facebook and they will also have to face other large players like Nvidia's(NASDAQ:NVDA) Omniverse. Roblox currently has first mover advantages over most Metaverse players, as well as having the advantage of building the Roblox platform with trust and security in mind. This mindset is very different than Facebook, which sacrificed trust and security, in the name of growth on the Facebook platform. Roblox, on the other hand, took trust and security far more seriously very early on, probably after observing many of Facebook's mistakes in building a social network.\nBecause of Roblox branding itself as safe and secure, any breach in that safety and security can damage the brand long term. Roblox has already had problems with its security, with some developers having found ways around restrictions around sexual content and dating, that Roblox wound up having to patch.\nAnother concern is Roblox addiction. There is a fine line between driving more engagement and making children so addicted to the platform that they fail to develop real life social skills. Any adverse publicity on the topic of Roblox addiction where it is found that too much time in the Metaverse hurts people's mental health could hurt the company's long-term goal of raising engagement levels.\nLast but not least. Up until now, Roblox has been mostly for kids. Long-term, Roblox's business depends on its demographics spreading to adults. If Roblox fails in expanding its demographics, the stock will likely have far less upside than investors are currently enthusiastically pricing in.\nConclusion\nRoblox stock is a buy for very aggressive investors willing to speculate on the upside of the Metaverse. This stock is selling at a high valuation, so less aggressive investors might want to wait for the stock to pull back.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1283,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":878894450,"gmtCreate":1637163650489,"gmtModify":1637163650489,"author":{"id":"3581295915321286","authorId":"3581295915321286","name":"DragonLee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581295915321286","authorIdStr":"3581295915321286"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Wow...","listText":"Wow...","text":"Wow...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/878894450","repostId":"1120506065","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1120506065","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1637140375,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1120506065?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-11-17 17:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Rivian jumped another 3.6% in premarket trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1120506065","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Rivian jumped another 3.6% in premarket trading after surging more than 15% yesterday.Rivian stock h","content":"<p>Rivian jumped another 3.6% in premarket trading&nbsp;after&nbsp;surging more than 15% yesterday.Rivian stock has more than doubled in the past week, since the electric truck maker’s smash-hit initial public offering.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/923d8c06b374c5762ab19f11ef2bfda1\" tg-width=\"850\" tg-height=\"619\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The stock remains priced for perfection while the company continues to have growth paths chipped away from the business. My&nbsp;investment thesis&nbsp;continues to remain Bearish on the stock up around $150.</p>\n<p><b>All About Payments</b></p>\n<p>In the past year, Apple had already made several shifts in payment terms with developers. The tech giant reduced App Store fees for small developers and recently allowed&nbsp;several reader apps&nbsp;to offer links to external payments options to avoid the 15% or 30% fees paid to Apple.</p>\n<p>On Friday, U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez-Rogers ruled that Apple must allow app developers the ability to direct customers to alternative payment methods outside of the App Store. Apple won the rest of their case blocking Fortnite from regaining access to the App Store and ruling the tech giant wasn't using monopolistic powers.</p>\n<p>The CEO of Epic Games took to Twitter to suggest this ruling doesn't solve the problem as gamers have to go to outside sources in order to register and make payments. The process might work for&nbsp;<b>Netflix</b>(NFLX) and&nbsp;<b>Spotify</b>(SPOT) offering monthly subscriptions and services a user might want to use outside of Apple devices, but gaming companies are far different mostly requiring in-app purchases at random times. Tim Sweeney made it clear Epic Games needs access to in-app payment methods provided by the app developer or gamers are likely to continue using Apple for payments.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/634a06a5a851f4867e1a7aba3bfdbdac\" tg-width=\"665\" tg-height=\"768\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p>Regardless, the U.S. District Court ruling opens up the door for companies to start bypassing the fees paid to Apple. A lot of big questions exist on whether consumers will actually utilize these external payment options, or if the tech giant will end up charging app developers fees for access to the App Store.</p>\n<p><b>2% Hit</b></p>\n<p>So much is unknown about the actual financial impact of this ruling other than just about every app developer wants to avoid the up to 30% fees these companies pay to both Apple and&nbsp;<b>Google</b>(GOOG) (GOOGL) for access to their app stores. Star Apple analyst Katy Huberty from Morgan Stanley had already suggested the company faced limited risk of only up to a 2% hit to earnings from the previous move to allow some of the top apps to offer links to external payment systems.</p>\n<p>Katy released the&nbsp;following analysis&nbsp;a couple of days prior to the judge ruling to force Apple to officially open up the payment system to all apps:</p>\n<blockquote>\n We view the top 10 or so apps as those that are most likely to have the scale, brand, marketing budget, and customer loyalty to absorb the friction of circumventing the App Store payments platform. Assuming a worst case scenario in which Apple stopped collecting economics from all of the top 20 reader apps translates to downside risk of 4% of Services revenue, 1% of total company revenue, and about 2% of FY22 EPS forecast.\n</blockquote>\n<p>Why the move ultimately matters is because the App Store generates up to&nbsp;$22 billion in annual revenues&nbsp;with an estimated gross margin of close to 80% according to analysis used by Epic Games. Everyone knows the Services business is what will provide the growth path for Apple from the recurring revenue streams, but this business is now taking a slight hit.</p>\n<p>A 1% hit to total revenues is over $3 billion, or what amounts to 4% of Services revenues up at $70 billion this year. The company will be fine, but the stock will suffer.</p>\n<p>Before this ruling hit the wires and most analysts had even updated numbers from the \"reader\" app decision, Apple was only forecast to generate annual EPS growth in the 1% to 6% range over the next 4 years. Analysts already forecast limited EPS growth and any hit to this growth rate further reduces the growth to next to nothing.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/15ea017715082a5bf3b0fe6351de2680\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"177\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: SA earnings estimates</span></p>\n<p>The problem is that the stock still trades at 26x those uncut FY22 EPS estimates of $5.84. Stocks hardly trade at more than 2x the growth rate and Apple would need over 13% EPS growth annually to warrant such a premium valuation multiple.</p>\n<p>If the new EPS impact trumps the estimates of the Morgan Stanley analyst due to the expanded scope of developers now gaining access to external payment options, the tech giant might not even generate earnings growth in the next couple of years.

The stock remains priced for perfection while the company continues to have growth paths chipped away from the business. My investment thesis continues to remain Bearish on the stock up around $150.\nAll About Payments\nIn the past year, Apple had already made several shifts in payment terms with developers. The tech giant reduced App Store fees for small developers and recently allowed several reader apps to offer links to external payments options to avoid the 15% or 30% fees paid to Apple.\nOn Friday, U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez-Rogers ruled that Apple must allow app developers the ability to direct customers to alternative payment methods outside of the App Store. Apple won the rest of their case blocking Fortnite from regaining access to the App Store and ruling the tech giant wasn't using monopolistic powers.\nThe CEO of Epic Games took to Twitter to suggest this ruling doesn't solve the problem as gamers have to go to outside sources in order to register and make payments. The process might work for Netflix(NFLX) and Spotify(SPOT) offering monthly subscriptions and services a user might want to use outside of Apple devices, but gaming companies are far different mostly requiring in-app purchases at random times. Tim Sweeney made it clear Epic Games needs access to in-app payment methods provided by the app developer or gamers are likely to continue using Apple for payments.\n\nRegardless, the U.S. District Court ruling opens up the door for companies to start bypassing the fees paid to Apple. A lot of big questions exist on whether consumers will actually utilize these external payment options, or if the tech giant will end up charging app developers fees for access to the App Store.\n2% Hit\nSo much is unknown about the actual financial impact of this ruling other than just about every app developer wants to avoid the up to 30% fees these companies pay to both Apple and Google(GOOG) (GOOGL) for access to their app stores. Star Apple analyst Katy Huberty from Morgan Stanley had already suggested the company faced limited risk of only up to a 2% hit to earnings from the previous move to allow some of the top apps to offer links to external payment systems.\nKaty released the following analysis a couple of days prior to the judge ruling to force Apple to officially open up the payment system to all apps:\n\n We view the top 10 or so apps as those that are most likely to have the scale, brand, marketing budget, and customer loyalty to absorb the friction of circumventing the App Store payments platform. Assuming a worst case scenario in which Apple stopped collecting economics from all of the top 20 reader apps translates to downside risk of 4% of Services revenue, 1% of total company revenue, and about 2% of FY22 EPS forecast.\n\nWhy the move ultimately matters is because the App Store generates up to $22 billion in annual revenues with an estimated gross margin of close to 80% according to analysis used by Epic Games. Everyone knows the Services business is what will provide the growth path for Apple from the recurring revenue streams, but this business is now taking a slight hit.\nA 1% hit to total revenues is over $3 billion, or what amounts to 4% of Services revenues up at $70 billion this year. The company will be fine, but the stock will suffer.\nBefore this ruling hit the wires and most analysts had even updated numbers from the \"reader\" app decision, Apple was only forecast to generate annual EPS growth in the 1% to 6% range over the next 4 years. Analysts already forecast limited EPS growth and any hit to this growth rate further reduces the growth to next to nothing.\nSource: SA earnings estimates\nThe problem is that the stock still trades at 26x those uncut FY22 EPS estimates of $5.84. Stocks hardly trade at more than 2x the growth rate and Apple would need over 13% EPS growth annually to warrant such a premium valuation multiple.\nIf the new EPS impact trumps the estimates of the Morgan Stanley analyst due to the expanded scope of developers now gaining access to external payment options, the tech giant might not even generate earnings growth in the next couple of years. Investors are hardly likely to continue paying up for the stock under such a scenario.\nTakeaway\nThe key investor takeaway is that Apple has a bright future. The company will continue generating profits with operating cash flows topping $100 billion annually, but the tech giant will struggle to generate the growth needed to warrant the current stock price. The 2% hit to earnings might not seem meaningful, but the amount is very harmful to a stock priced for perfection.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":159,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":881324032,"gmtCreate":1631300543126,"gmtModify":1632883313221,"author":{"id":"3581295915321286","authorId":"3581295915321286","name":"DragonLee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581295915321286","authorIdStr":"3581295915321286"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy n hold.","listText":"Buy n hold.","text":"Buy n hold.","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/881324032","repostId":"2166120346","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2166120346","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1631240205,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2166120346?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-09-10 10:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 Top Growth Stocks to Buy Right Now and Hold for the Long Term","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2166120346","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Apple and PayPal have delivered years of big gains for their shareholders, and their growth stories are far from over.","content":"<p>Some investors are growing concerned about the state of the economy, inflation, and the direction the stock market might go next.

PayPal could grow enormously from here if engagement strengthens, which is management's goal. For these reasons, this growth stock should remain a rewarding investment for years to come.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":38,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":129549551,"gmtCreate":1624378738573,"gmtModify":1634006969996,"author":{"id":"3581295915321286","authorId":"3581295915321286","name":"DragonLee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581295915321286","authorIdStr":"3581295915321286"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Patience","listText":"Patience","text":"Patience","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/129549551","repostId":"1116451605","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":93,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":129540480,"gmtCreate":1624378712340,"gmtModify":1634006970708,"author":{"id":"3581295915321286","authorId":"3581295915321286","name":"DragonLee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581295915321286","authorIdStr":"3581295915321286"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/129540480","repostId":"1110726798","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1110726798","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1624362092,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1110726798?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-22 19:41","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Toplines Before US Market Open on Tuesday","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1110726798","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Stock futures rise to extend earlier gains.\nTorchlight Energy Price Gains Premarket.\nGameStop Jumps ","content":"<ul>\n <li>Stock futures rise to extend earlier gains.</li>\n <li>Torchlight Energy Price Gains Premarket.</li>\n <li>GameStop Jumps After Raising More Than $1 Billion in New Shares.</li>\n <li>GameStop, MicroVision, Sanderson Farms &amp; more made the biggest moves in the premarket.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>(June 22)&nbsp;Stock futures rose Tuesday morning to build on gains from a day earlier, with equities recovering from concerns over the path forward for monetary policy last week.</p>\n<p>At 7:47&nbsp;a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were up 23 points, or 0.07%, S&amp;P 500 e-minis were up 5.75 points, or 0.14%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were up 39.25 points, or 0.28%.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/127a76b6bde89676371162b1b268b550\" tg-width=\"1242\" tg-height=\"500\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p><b>Stocks making the biggest moves in the premarket: GameStop, MicroVision, Sanderson Farms &amp; more</b></p>\n<p><b>1)&nbsp;GameStop(GME)</b> – The videogame retailer's stock jumped 6.8% in the premarket after it had announced it had completed a previously announced sale of 5 million common shares, raising $1.126 billion.</p>\n<p><b>2)&nbsp;MicroVision(MVIS)</b> – MicroVision shares slid 10.8% in the premarket after the laser technology company said it would sell up to $140 million of stock \"from time to time\" and use the funds for general corporate purposes.</p>\n<p><b>3)&nbsp;Sanderson Farms(SAFM) </b>– Sanderson Farms is exploring a possible sale, according to people familiar with the matter who spoke to The Wall Street Journal.

When considering the health of its long term uptrend, it’s clear that BABA has a relatively strong uptrend bias and has generally been well supported along its key 50W MA. The only other time in the last 4 years that it lost its key 50W MA support level was during the 2018 bear market where BABA dropped about 40%, but was still well supported above the important 200W MA, which we usually consider as the “last line of defense”. Right now BABA is somewhat facing a similar situation again: down 34%, lost the 50W MA, but looks to be well supported above the 200W MA. In addition to that, one interesting observation in price action analysis may lead price action traders/investors to be especially bullish: a potential double bottom formation. BABA's price is seemingly going through a double bottom like it did during the 2018 bear market before it rallied strongly thereafter. As a result, BABA’s current level may offer a possible technical buy entry point now.</p>\n<p><b>BABA's Fundamental Thesis: Rapidly Expanding Growth Drivers</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eba49f5881708929949c30628eedc5d4\" tg-width=\"934\" tg-height=\"578\"><span>Annual GMV.

Although the market is still relatively small, BABA cannot allow the current leader in this market: PDD to so easily dominate and gobble up the early high growth rates at the ignorance of everyone else.

With BABA’s leadership in the rapidly expanding Chinese market, I’m increasingly bullish on the future profit and FCF contribution from this segment to BABA’s performance over time. Although BABA’s cloud segment has not been EBIT profitable yet (FY 21 EBIT margin: -15%, FY 20 EBIT margin: -17.5%), it’s also useful to note that GCP has also not been profitable for Alphabet as well (FY 20 EBIT margin: -42.9%, FY 19 EBIT margin: -52%). Therefore, we need to give BABA some time to scale up its cloud services in APAC and in China where it is expected to have stronger leadership to allow it to grow faster and investors should expect this to be a highly profitable segment over time.</p>\n<p><b>BABA's Valuations Look Highly Compelling</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/62a087c4b3ef7efc2c5dde813e3b959d\" tg-width=\"1000\" tg-height=\"600\"><span>NTM TEV / EBIT 3Y range.</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b2605c0e5ad364a7a43929fef204595c\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"687\"><span>EV / Fwd EBIT and EV / Fwd Rev trend.

When considering the health of its long term uptrend, it’s clear that BABA has a relatively strong uptrend bias and has generally been well supported along its key 50W MA. The only other time in the last 4 years that it lost its key 50W MA support level was during the 2018 bear market where BABA dropped about 40%, but was still well supported above the important 200W MA, which we usually consider as the “last line of defense”. Right now BABA is somewhat facing a similar situation again: down 34%, lost the 50W MA, but looks to be well supported above the 200W MA. In addition to that, one interesting observation in price action analysis may lead price action traders/investors to be especially bullish: a potential double bottom formation. BABA's price is seemingly going through a double bottom like it did during the 2018 bear market before it rallied strongly thereafter. As a result, BABA’s current level may offer a possible technical buy entry point now.\nBABA's Fundamental Thesis: Rapidly Expanding Growth Drivers\nAnnual GMV.

When considering the health of its long term uptrend, it’s clear that BABA has a relatively strong uptrend bias and has generally been well supported along its key 50W MA. The only other time in the last 4 years that it lost its key 50W MA support level was during the 2018 bear market where BABA dropped about 40%, but was still well supported above the important 200W MA, which we usually consider as the “last line of defense”. Right now BABA is somewhat facing a similar situation again: down 34%, lost the 50W MA, but looks to be well supported above the 200W MA. In addition to that, one interesting observation in price action analysis may lead price action traders/investors to be especially bullish: a potential double bottom formation. BABA's price is seemingly going through a double bottom like it did during the 2018 bear market before it rallied strongly thereafter. As a result, BABA’s current level may offer a possible technical buy entry point now.</p>\n<p><b>BABA's Fundamental Thesis: Rapidly Expanding Growth Drivers</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eba49f5881708929949c30628eedc5d4\" tg-width=\"934\" tg-height=\"578\"><span>Annual GMV.

We also saw its GMV growth being converted into revenue growth as its China commerce revenue grew from 7.67B yuan to 473.68B yuan, at a CAGR of 51% over the last 10 years. While its international footprint remains considerably smaller, it still grew at a CAGR of 30.42% over the last 10 years, which was by no means slow.</p>\n<p>Even though China’s e-commerce market is expected to grow considerably slower at a CAGR of 12.4% over the next three years, from 13.8T yuan, equivalent to $2.16T in 2021 to 19.6T yuan,equivalent to $3.06T by 2024, the massive size of the market still offers tremendous upside potential for BABA and its closest competitors to grow into.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ffe2dee43f267e1d1399c68e3ca60f36\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"371\"><span>E-commerce revenue in the U.S. Data source: Statista</span></p>\n<p>When we take things into clearer perspective by comparing China’s growth rate and size of its market to that of the U.S. e-commerce market, we could see the huge differences in their sizes and growth rates as the U.S. e-commerce market is only expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.67% from 2021 to 2025, which is significantly slower than China’s 12.4%. In addition, the U.S. market is also expected to reach about $563B in total revenue, which is 18% of what the China market is expected to be worth by then.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0d5a8d0d8a6a2dcdf667a6f33c6c9771\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"702\"><span>Peers EBIT Margin and Projected EBIT Margin. Data source: S&amp;P Capital IQ</span></p>\n<p>Even though Alibaba has been facing increased competitive pressures from its fast growing key competitors: JD.com(NASDAQ:JD)and Pinduoduo(NASDAQ:PDD), BABA has already been operating a much more profitable business (both EBIT and FCF), and is expected to continue delivering strong profitability moving forward, which should give the company tremendous flexibility to compete head on with JD and PDD in its quest to extend its leadership. Investors may observe that BABA’s EBIT margin was affected by the one-off administrative penalty of $2,782M that was reflected in its SG&amp;A, and therefore skewed its EBIT margin to the downside.</p>\n<p>One important move was the company’s decision to further its investment in the Community Marketplace, which is PDD’s main e-commerce strategy that saw PDD gain a total of&nbsp;823M AAC&nbsp;in its latest quarter as compared to BABA’s 891M AAC. PDD’s AAC growth is truly phenomenal considering it had only&nbsp;100M AAC in Q2’C17&nbsp;as compared to BABA’s 466M AAC in the same period.</p>\n<p>Therefore, the momentum of growth has surely swung over to the Community Marketplace segment and BABA would need to pull out its big guns (which it has) to compete for dominance with PDD and JD.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3b83b69b08b1f4b11a26393c8e6eead5\" tg-width=\"600\" tg-height=\"371\"><span>Market size of community group buying in China. Data source: iiMedia Research</span></p>\n<p>Even though the expected total market size of 102B yuan by 2022 represented only about 21.5% of BABA’s FY 21 China commerce revenue, the expected rapid CAGR of 44.22% over 3 years from 2019 to 2022 cannot be missed by BABA. Although the market is still relatively small, BABA cannot allow the current leader in this market: PDD to so easily dominate and gobble up the early high growth rates at the ignorance of everyone else. Certainly BABA must compete and fight for its place in this segment and strive for early leadership to prevent PDD from extending its lead.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b97b2b4a8a182dc9846d8fb7e4039877\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"770\"><span>PDD profitability metrics &amp; revenue growth forecast.

More importantly, PDD is also expected to increasingly improve its EBIT and FCF profitability moving forward. This shows that the Community Marketplace segment is an highly important growth driver that BABA must use its strength to exploit in order to deny PDD’s claim to undisputed leadership so early on in the game.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3aadc32155b4108426a1a982e3b5b1c2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\"><span>China public cloud spending.

Source:CnTechPost; Gartner</span></p>\n<p>Therefore, I don’t find it surprising that Ali Cloud has continued to extend its lead over Alphabet’s(NASDAQ:GOOGL)(NASDAQ:GOOG)GCP with a market share of 9.5% in 2020. While AMZN remains the clear leader in the market, its market share has been coming down considerably as public cloud spending continues to expand, indicating that there is a huge potential for growth for multiple players to exist. With BABA’s leadership in the rapidly expanding Chinese market, I’m increasingly bullish on the future profit and FCF contribution from this segment to BABA’s performance over time. Although BABA’s cloud segment has not been EBIT profitable yet (FY 21 EBIT margin: -15%, FY 20 EBIT margin: -17.5%), it’s also useful to note that GCP has also not been profitable for Alphabet as well (FY 20 EBIT margin: -42.9%, FY 19 EBIT margin: -52%). Therefore, we need to give BABA some time to scale up its cloud services in APAC and in China where it is expected to have stronger leadership to allow it to grow faster and investors should expect this to be a highly profitable segment over time.</p>\n<p><b>BABA's Valuations Look Highly Compelling</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/62a087c4b3ef7efc2c5dde813e3b959d\" tg-width=\"1000\" tg-height=\"600\"><span>NTM TEV / EBIT 3Y range.</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b2605c0e5ad364a7a43929fef204595c\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"687\"><span>EV / Fwd EBIT and EV / Fwd Rev trend.

When considering the health of its long term uptrend, it’s clear that BABA has a relatively strong uptrend bias and has generally been well supported along its key 50W MA. The only other time in the last 4 years that it lost its key 50W MA support level was during the 2018 bear market where BABA dropped about 40%, but was still well supported above the important 200W MA, which we usually consider as the “last line of defense”. Right now BABA is somewhat facing a similar situation again: down 34%, lost the 50W MA, but looks to be well supported above the 200W MA. In addition to that, one interesting observation in price action analysis may lead price action traders/investors to be especially bullish: a potential double bottom formation. BABA's price is seemingly going through a double bottom like it did during the 2018 bear market before it rallied strongly thereafter. As a result, BABA’s current level may offer a possible technical buy entry point now.\nBABA's Fundamental Thesis: Rapidly Expanding Growth Drivers\nAnnual GMV. Data source: Company filings\nAnnual e-commerce revenue. Data source: Company filings\nBABA’s GMV grew from 1.68T yuan to 7.49T yuan in just a matter of 7 years, which represented a CAGR of 23.8%, a truly amazing growth rate. We also saw its GMV growth being converted into revenue growth as its China commerce revenue grew from 7.67B yuan to 473.68B yuan, at a CAGR of 51% over the last 10 years. While its international footprint remains considerably smaller, it still grew at a CAGR of 30.42% over the last 10 years, which was by no means slow.\nEven though China’s e-commerce market is expected to grow considerably slower at a CAGR of 12.4% over the next three years, from 13.8T yuan, equivalent to $2.16T in 2021 to 19.6T yuan,equivalent to $3.06T by 2024, the massive size of the market still offers tremendous upside potential for BABA and its closest competitors to grow into.\nE-commerce revenue in the U.S. Data source: Statista\nWhen we take things into clearer perspective by comparing China’s growth rate and size of its market to that of the U.S. e-commerce market, we could see the huge differences in their sizes and growth rates as the U.S. e-commerce market is only expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.67% from 2021 to 2025, which is significantly slower than China’s 12.4%. In addition, the U.S. market is also expected to reach about $563B in total revenue, which is 18% of what the China market is expected to be worth by then.\nPeers EBIT Margin and Projected EBIT Margin. Data source: S&P Capital IQ\nEven though Alibaba has been facing increased competitive pressures from its fast growing key competitors: JD.com(NASDAQ:JD)and Pinduoduo(NASDAQ:PDD), BABA has already been operating a much more profitable business (both EBIT and FCF), and is expected to continue delivering strong profitability moving forward, which should give the company tremendous flexibility to compete head on with JD and PDD in its quest to extend its leadership. Investors may observe that BABA’s EBIT margin was affected by the one-off administrative penalty of $2,782M that was reflected in its SG&A, and therefore skewed its EBIT margin to the downside.\nOne important move was the company’s decision to further its investment in the Community Marketplace, which is PDD’s main e-commerce strategy that saw PDD gain a total of 823M AAC in its latest quarter as compared to BABA’s 891M AAC. PDD’s AAC growth is truly phenomenal considering it had only 100M AAC in Q2’C17 as compared to BABA’s 466M AAC in the same period.\nTherefore, the momentum of growth has surely swung over to the Community Marketplace segment and BABA would need to pull out its big guns (which it has) to compete for dominance with PDD and JD.\nMarket size of community group buying in China. Data source: iiMedia Research\nEven though the expected total market size of 102B yuan by 2022 represented only about 21.5% of BABA’s FY 21 China commerce revenue, the expected rapid CAGR of 44.22% over 3 years from 2019 to 2022 cannot be missed by BABA. Although the market is still relatively small, BABA cannot allow the current leader in this market: PDD to so easily dominate and gobble up the early high growth rates at the ignorance of everyone else. Certainly BABA must compete and fight for its place in this segment and strive for early leadership to prevent PDD from extending its lead.\nPDD profitability metrics & revenue growth forecast. Data source: S&P Capital IQ\nWe could observe from the above chart that PDD is expected to continue growing its revenue rapidly over the next few years, even though they are expected to normalize subsequently. More importantly, PDD is also expected to increasingly improve its EBIT and FCF profitability moving forward. This shows that the Community Marketplace segment is an highly important growth driver that BABA must use its strength to exploit in order to deny PDD’s claim to undisputed leadership so early on in the game.\nChina public cloud spending. Source:China Internet Watch; Canalys\nSize of China public cloud market. Data source: CAICT; Sina.com.cn\nBABA has a 40% share in China’s public cloud market, way ahead of its key competitors. However, it’s important to note that despite this leadership, BABA is still in heavy investment mode to continue growing its market share as China’s public cloud market is expected to grow from 26.48B yuan in 2017 to 230.74B yuan by 2023, which would represent a CAGR of 43.4%, an incredibly stellar growth rate. This is especially clear when we compare China’s growth rate to the worldwide growth rate (see below) as public cloud spending worldwide is expected to grow from $145B in 2017 to $397B by 2022, that would represent a CAGR of 22.3%.\nWorldwide public cloud spending. Data source: Gartner\nWorldwide public cloud market share.

Don't make these huge mistakes.","content":"<p>For months, investors have been on the edge of their seats just waiting for their portfolio values to tumble. Stocks have been largely overvalued for months, and many believe that conditions are ripe for a near-term stock market crash. In fact, there's a solid chance stock values could tank before May comes to a close.</p><p>Of course, without a crystal ball, it's impossible to predict when the next stock market crash will occur. But it's important to be ready for <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> at all times, and that includes knowing what <i>not</i> to do if things take a turn for the worse. Here are three traps you shouldn't fall into if stock market volatility strikes soon.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F626498%2Fstock-market-downward-graph_gettyimages-463115585.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"494\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>1. Stop investing</h2><p>Many people assume that when stocks tank, the best idea is to just sit back and watch from the sidelines. But actually, <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the best times to invest is during a broad market correction or crash, because that's when you're likely to find stocks on sale.</p><p>Say you've been eying a company with a share price of $150. If its shares fall to $120 during a market crash, you have a prime opportunity to scoop them up at a discount -- and why would you want to miss out on that?</p><p>In fact, it's actually a good idea to stockpile some cash ahead of a market crash so you have an opportunity to buy stocks as their value drops. Just don't make the mistake of tapping your emergency fund -- that money should be reserved for unplanned bills only.</p><h2>2. Hit pause on your retirement plan contributions</h2><p>Just as you may be inclined to avoid buying stocks when the market declines, so too may the idea of pausing your retirement plan contributions enter your mind. But remember, funding an IRA or 401(k) doesn't just give you money to spend in the future -- it can also shield more of your income from the IRS at present (assuming you contribute to a traditional retirement plan and not a Roth account). And that's a tax break you really don't want to give up. As such, if you have the means to keep putting money into a retirement account, stick with that plan.</p><h2>3. Try to time the market by buying stocks at an absolute low</h2><p>Stock market crashes don't tend to last a single day. They can last weeks, months, or, in more extreme cases, years. Many investors spin their wheels during market crashes by trying to figure out when stocks will truly hit their low point. But doing so could cause you to lose out on prime buying opportunities.</p><p>Rather than attempt to time the market when stocks are down, keep a watchlist of companies you're hoping to invest in, and jump when their stocks go on sale. In fact, rather than ask yourself whether you're getting the lowest price for a given stock, ask yourself whether you think that price will go up over time. If the answer is yes, then it's a good time to buy. Period.</p><p>Will the stock market crumble in May? It could, or maybe it won't.

Stocks have been largely overvalued for months, and many believe that conditions are ripe for a near-term stock market crash. In fact, there's a solid chance stock values could tank before May comes to a close.Of course, without a crystal ball, it's impossible to predict when the next stock market crash will occur. But it's important to be ready for one at all times, and that includes knowing what not to do if things take a turn for the worse. Here are three traps you shouldn't fall into if stock market volatility strikes soon.Image source: Getty Images.1. Stop investingMany people assume that when stocks tank, the best idea is to just sit back and watch from the sidelines. But actually, one of the best times to invest is during a broad market correction or crash, because that's when you're likely to find stocks on sale.Say you've been eying a company with a share price of $150. If its shares fall to $120 during a market crash, you have a prime opportunity to scoop them up at a discount -- and why would you want to miss out on that?In fact, it's actually a good idea to stockpile some cash ahead of a market crash so you have an opportunity to buy stocks as their value drops. Just don't make the mistake of tapping your emergency fund -- that money should be reserved for unplanned bills only.2. Hit pause on your retirement plan contributionsJust as you may be inclined to avoid buying stocks when the market declines, so too may the idea of pausing your retirement plan contributions enter your mind. But remember, funding an IRA or 401(k) doesn't just give you money to spend in the future -- it can also shield more of your income from the IRS at present (assuming you contribute to a traditional retirement plan and not a Roth account). And that's a tax break you really don't want to give up. As such, if you have the means to keep putting money into a retirement account, stick with that plan.3. Try to time the market by buying stocks at an absolute lowStock market crashes don't tend to last a single day. They can last weeks, months, or, in more extreme cases, years. Many investors spin their wheels during market crashes by trying to figure out when stocks will truly hit their low point. But doing so could cause you to lose out on prime buying opportunities.Rather than attempt to time the market when stocks are down, keep a watchlist of companies you're hoping to invest in, and jump when their stocks go on sale. In fact, rather than ask yourself whether you're getting the lowest price for a given stock, ask yourself whether you think that price will go up over time. If the answer is yes, then it's a good time to buy. Period.Will the stock market crumble in May? It could, or maybe it won't. But at some point, stocks are apt to crash, even if for a brief period of time, and knowing what not to do when that happens could help you emerge from a downturn not only unscathed, but wealthier than when you started.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":240,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":603190804,"gmtCreate":1638371234619,"gmtModify":1638371247392,"author":{"id":"3581295915321286","authorId":"3581295915321286","name":"DragonLee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581295915321286","authorIdStr":"3581295915321286"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Applied Mat is interesting.&nbsp; Can take a look.&nbsp;","listText":"Applied Mat is interesting.&nbsp; Can take a look.&nbsp;","text":"Applied Mat is interesting.

Clean energy stocks are down roughly 20% this year on an absolute basis, while energy, commodities, defense and tobacco stocks have all outperformed. This sharp contrast comes despite flows into ESG funds continuing at a record pace.\nRising prices will likely continue to pose a significant challenge for ESG funds in particular, Bernstein said, but added that there are a number of ways for these investors to lower their risk exposure.\nIn a note published June 10, Bernstein screened for ESG stocks in the U.S., Europe and Asia that are best positioned for rising inflation.\nBernstein screened for the stocks by considering three ways that sustainable investors could brace for a rising inflationary environment:\n1. Seeking out high-scoring ESG stocks that are positively exposed to rising bond yields.\n2. Investing in high-scoring ESG stocks which have robust pricing power.\n3. Identifying companies that have increased exposure to the energy, commodities and financials sectors.\nIn considering stocks that should be in an ESG portfolio, Bernstein recognized that investors may struggle to prioritize so-called “sin” stocks, such as energy and commodity companies, although these “value” stocks usually perform well when inflation and bond yields rise. Value stocks are seen as being underappreciated by the market.\nBernstein also highlighted that financials tend to be left on the sidelines by ESG investors, since measuring their environmental credentials can be tricky.\nU.S.\nThe analysts said that U.S. ESG funds are “not that well positioned” for inflation because they tend to be underweight on so-called value stocks. The bank did, however, single outState Street,LearandBank of New York Mellonamong its top picks of those positively exposed to rising bond yields. The three U.S. firms were found to score in the top quintile on “environment,” according to data from Sustainalytics, and had a positive correlation with U.S. 10-year bond yields over the past 12 months.\nHome Depot,Adobe,PepsiCo were named by Bernstein as being among the stocks with the highest pricing power and ESG scores.\nEurope\nESG funds in Europe were found to be particularly exposed to rising inflation and the bank said tighter constraints and regulations on sustainability made lowering inflation risk more difficult than in other regions.\nNonetheless,ING,EniandTotalEnergieswere picked out among the region’s high-scoring ESG stocks within industries that are positively exposed to rising bond yields.Neste,Norsk HydroandKingfisherwere all cited as top picks when it comes to strong pricing power and high ESG scores, the analysts at Bernstein said.\nAsia\nAsian ESG funds are better positioned than their counterparts in the U.S. and Europe, the bank said. This is likely to reflect the fact that ESG investing is still in an early stage in the region and many investors are predominantly focused on environmental issues rather than fully integrating social and governance considerations, the bank said.\nAmong the bank’s high-scoring “improver” stocks in the region that are positively exposed to rising U.S. bond yields areMelco Resorts,Trip.comandAdani Ports and Special Economic Zone.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":93,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":129540480,"gmtCreate":1624378712340,"gmtModify":1634006970708,"author":{"id":"3581295915321286","authorId":"3581295915321286","name":"DragonLee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581295915321286","authorIdStr":"3581295915321286"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/129540480","repostId":"1110726798","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":107,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":162370314,"gmtCreate":1624037152738,"gmtModify":1634023681115,"author":{"id":"3581295915321286","authorId":"3581295915321286","name":"DragonLee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581295915321286","authorIdStr":"3581295915321286"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Buy low sell high.

However, if that was all there was to Roblox, then it would not likely be trading at a PS ratio of 40.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6f55c95c8bc74d8fa11a7a39c48feae2\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"454\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Presentation</span></p>\n<p>Roblox was designed almost from the beginning to be a human co-experience platform, which is now being more commonly called the Metaverse. The company's end goal is to have all human experiences that can be imagined to be available to be experienced with friends and family on the Roblox platform.</p>\n<blockquote>\n Roblox's mission is to build a human co-experience platform that enables billions of users to come together to play, learn, communicate, explore and expand their friendships.\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source:Roblox Corporate Overview\n</blockquote>\n<p>The concept of the Metaverse or a human co-experience platform is still a very speculative idea but if Roblox successfully gets a Metaverse platform up and running worldwide, it will stand to gain significant first mover advantages and could totally replace today's major social networks like Facebook. The upside in Roblox is potentially being larger than Facebook is today, if the company is successful. In fact, at least part of the reason that I think Facebook(NASDAQ:FB)&nbsp;changed its name to Meta&nbsp;and branded itself a Metaverse company is because I think Mark Zuckerberg sees the potential of Facebook getting disrupted by Roblox.</p>\n<p><b>What is the business model?</b></p>\n<p>Let me give a brief explanation on how the Roblox is monetized. Roblox uses a freemium model, where games are free to play but advanced features and customizations are only unlocked through paying with an in-game currency called Robux, which can be purchased either through gift cards, ala carte or through subscription.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02f69d2443db16542467c22831dfc32c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"389\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Investor Day Presentation</span></p>\n<p>Growth on the Roblox platform is largely organic and largely operates through word-of-mouth. There are two viral growth network effects associated with the platform, with one loop centered around content and the other loop centered around a social network.</p>\n<p>In the content loop, developers and creators are the prime engine of growth by creating the content that powers the platform. The content attracts players which pay for the content, which allows developers to both make a living and reinvest the money they make into building better experiences. The better experiences result in even more players, higher engagement and more spend, which in turn attracts new developers and creators, while incentivizing existing creators and developers to create even more and higher quality experiences.</p>\n<p>In Roblox's social network loop, players will play games with their friends, then invite even more of their friends to play the games which drives organic growth. The value of the Roblox platform increases to an individual when more of their friends play together. More friends and better experiences drive even more players to join.</p>\n<p>This social network loop aspect of Roblox is also a huge competitive advantage for the company, as players want to play the games that they create with their friends, and it tends to make Roblox very sticky. This competitive advantage will also likely at some point turn into a powerful&nbsp;Network Effect Moat, if enough users join the platform.</p>\n<p><b>The Key Factor</b></p>\n<p>The key factor that drives monetization on the platform is engagement. The more engagement there is, the healthier the platform.</p>\n<blockquote>\n Engagement is our north star. We're very pleased that during the third quarter, people of all ages from across the globe chose to spend over 11 billion hours on Roblox\n</blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n Source: Roblox CEO David Baszucki - Roblox Q3 2021 Shareholder Letter\n</blockquote>\n<p>Roblox measures engagement through two metrics which are Daily Active Users (\"DAUs\") and hours engaged. In Q3, Roblox attracted an average of 47.3 million daily active users (DAUs) which was 31% higher than in Q3 of 2020 and was 2.6x larger than in Q3 of 2019. Users spent 11.2 billion hours engaged on the Roblox platform in Q3 of 2021, up 28% from Q3 in 2020 and up 3x over Q3 of 2019. From these increasing engagement numbers, Roblox is able to support its developer community, who earned over $130 million in the quarter and is on pace to earn well over $500 million this year.</p>\n<p>Roblox experienced severe headwinds in late October this year, as the company experienced a&nbsp;platform outage&nbsp;that shut everything down for three days. Prior to the outage, daily active users in October were 50.5 million, up 43% year-over-year. Hours of engagement in October were 3.2 billion, up 41% year-over-year. These numbers are an indication that Q4 numbers are likely to be strong when they get reported.</p>\n<p><b>What are the growth drivers Moving Forward?</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/282a44eac5fa5aa525e22bb65ba76c05\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"435\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Presentation</span></p>\n<p>The four growth drivers that the company self-identified as a priority moving forward are:</p>\n<ol>\n <li>Extend International reach</li>\n <li>Broaden age demographics</li>\n <li>Expand how people use platform with new use cases</li>\n <li>Grow how engagement is monetized on platform</li>\n</ol>\n<p><b>International Expansion</b></p>\n<p>Of the four growth drivers, Roblox considers international expansion the most advanced. Currently, the rest of the world (\"ROW\") is growing faster than the USA and Canada together, which is currently at only 25% of the traffic on the platform. International Growth, like the US, occurs primarily through strong organic word of mouth in both users and developers.</p>\n<p>Roblox has also been developing powerful machine translation infrastructure, soon to be complete, that should be a big driver for international growth. This translation infrastructure will have the capability of doing translation into all&nbsp;supported languages, which is currently sitting at 11 different languages. In prior years, Roblox experiences had to be manually translated by the developer.</p>\n<p><b>Broaden Age Demographics</b></p>\n<p>Up until now, Roblox has shown great success reaching the 13 and under audience. However, for Roblox to reach its goals, the platform will have to broaden its demographics into a brand that appeals to all ages. The company plans to do this in several ways:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Enable developers to build more polished experiences that will appeal to a wider range of users. Roblox is already giving tools to its developers to begin offering deeply immersive experiences through dynamic simulation, faster loading, and more sophisticated rendering.</li>\n <li>Rapidly evolve avatar technology to be more realistic. Roblox management considers avatars important because it was discovered that they promote loyalty, engagement and an investment by the user in their virtual identity. Roblox plans on giving users a wider range of identity options, as well as giving users more options in clothing. Another area that Roblox needed improvement was facial animation. In December 2020, Roblox acquired facial tracking and animation company Loom.ai in a bid to make avatars more lifelike by doing things like giving them the ability to smile and make eye gestures.</li>\n <li>Create better User Matching through better personalized recommendations based upon age, geography, and social graphing skill level. Roblox has also been working on content ratings based upon age. Since launching personalized search and discovery, there has been increased engagement from users as well as a wider distribution of engagement across all experiences which helps expand demographics through core network effects.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Ultimately, as the technology on the Roblox platform improves, the ability to create content for older users will improve and as more content for older ages appears, it should attract older users. Roblox is still in the very early stages of expanding the age demographics, yet is already seeing better usage in ages above 13. The 17-24 years old segment is currently growing very rapidly. Measuring by DAUs, approximately 50.4% of users are over the age of 13 this year, compared to 44.5% last year and 51.2% of engagement was from users over the age of 13, up from 40.8% two years ago.</p>\n<p><b>Expanding How People Use the Platform</b></p>\n<p>Expanding how people use platform should greatly enhance both DAUs and engagement hours. The Roblox platform is essentially a medium of shared experiences and Roblox is currently in the process of expanding the range of those shared experiences beyond simply playing games to things like education, shared music experiences (concerts), virtual shopping, to maybe even one day working in virtual environments.</p>\n<p>Roblox recently held an&nbsp;Investor Day, in which the company announced they were setting up a \"Roblox Education\" division that aims \"to support 100 million students learning on the Roblox platform by 2030\". Roblox plans to do this by building dynamic learning environments that educators can use to create educational content and to teach people how to code on the Roblox platform.</p>\n<p>Roblox is also creating a&nbsp;$10 million fund&nbsp;dedicated \"to bringing high-quality educational experiences to Roblox and to support educators in using Roblox Studio in their classrooms\". The company has major plans to use Roblox Studio to help teach \"computer science, design, and development courses\" to millions of children.</p>\n<p>The stock has continued rising after its initial 42% jump after earnings and that is largely due to excitement over the news of Roblox expanding outside of games. Investors are just now becoming aware of the possibilities of the platform.</p>\n<p><b>Growing The Roblox Economy</b></p>\n<p>Roblox plans on expanding the whole economic system that was built around gaming into other economic activities like \"high quality immersive brand advertising that is native and authentic\". Advertising is only the start because ultimately shopping in virtual stores could make its way on to the Roblox platform.</p>\n<p>The basic building blocks to improving economic activity on the Roblox platform identified by the company include:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Removing friction in purchasing Robux on the platform. One example of Robux friction removal is the introduction of the&nbsp;Roblox premium subscription&nbsp;offering. Roblox premium offers two things for subscribers which are providing premium subscribers with a stipend of recurring Robux at a discounted rate and also providing premium features like a VIP pass that enables subscribers to get access to premium only features or items only available for purchase with a premium subscription. What this does for Roblox is turn the platform into more of a subscription offering, which increases the stability of Roblox bookings.</li>\n <li>Making the process of purchasing the avatar and gear associated with the avatar, much easier. Also, improving how merchandise is created and sold on the platform. Roblox has long ago made the decision to make a move to a 100% user-generated content (\"UGC\") avatar marketplace. Prior to 2020, the avatar marketplace was primarily populated by Roblox designed items. Roblox is still relatively early in this transition to UGC.</li>\n <li>Testing ways to have select brands participate in the Roblox economy and engage with users in a way that enhances the user experience, which includes working with brands to sell branded merchandise in a catalogue. There are several examples of branding. One is with Disney(NYSE:DIS)having&nbsp;<i>Avengers: Endgame</i>&nbsp;themed collectibles&nbsp;available to be won in a game, another is Roblox teaming up with the NFL for a&nbsp;Superbowl promotion.Other examples of brands working with Roblox are entertainment brands working with Roblox to help them debut new content using interactive experiences like&nbsp;Ready Player One, Avengers and Aquaman. Roblox has even held concerts online and worked with artists like&nbsp;Ava Max&nbsp;on launching a single that attracted 1 million users. Various brands have also become interested in establishing their own presence on Roblox and Roblox calls these Branded Worlds. The first Branded World was launched with DC comics and today it has received millions of visitors. In an announcement made just recently, Nike(NYSE:NKE)teamed up with Roblox on building a&nbsp;'Nikeland' virtual space.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Let's now look at the earnings report that sent Roblox's stock up 42% in one day.</p>\n<p><b>Roblox Q3 2021 Earnings Report</b></p>\n<p>Before getting into the revenues, I thought the following graphic from the&nbsp;Q3 2021 Supplemental materials&nbsp;would be very informative in describing how Roblox recognizes GAAP revenues:</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ba131189d01319851cb518635499c00f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"360\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials</span></p>\n<p>Roblox Q3 2021 bookings grew 28% to $637.8 million compared to $496.5 million last year. For Roblox, booking growth is more important than revenue growth because bookings is actually recorded when people purchase Robux, but revenues are only recognized as users spend the Robux on the platform.</p>\n<p>The company has also estimated October bookings between $177 million and $179 million, up 30% to 34% year-over-year, which is an indication that Q4 could also outperform.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/04c23ff22edb1bffd9c81382aa468f4b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"359\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials</span></p>\n<p>Average bookings per daily active user (ABPDAU) was $13.49 in Q3 2021, compared to $13.73 last year. The small decline was due to a shift in the geographic mix of the user base. ABPDAU is defined as bookings in a given period divided by the DAUs for such period. The metric ABPDAU is used to understand monetization trends across active users when they buy virtual currency and subscriptions. This number is also sort of a proxy for the value of the platform to Daily Active Users.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/20cec146a312fc52bb7b913c52ab34ef\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"358\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials</span></p>\n<p>The following graphic reconciles revenues to bookings and gives an investor a better idea of the relationship between revenues, deferred revenues and bookings.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5bc7c29257bf140ff5fb9035a7cf9d61\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"148\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Earnings Release</span></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/178bc75cc39aabe79f36b10cd48be30f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"358\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials</span></p>\n<p>Revenue in Q3 2021 was $509.3 million, an increase of 102% over Q3 2020.

The Developer Exchange Fee is the payout that developers can elect to receive by converting Robux back into real world cash, which Roblox reports as an expense. Infrastructure and Trust &amp; Safety are the costs associated with running&nbsp;Roblox cloud&nbsp;and the costs of operating the platform with security, safety and trust in mind.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e2df9d03933067820a908838201f50d5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"359\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials</span></p>\n<p>Roblox is still heavily in investment mode, so operating expenses far exceed GAAP Gross Profit, resulting in an operating loss in Q3 2021 of $77.45 million compared to an operating loss of $51.52 million from the prior year.</p>\n<p>Net loss attributable to common stockholders, which includes a portion of the net loss attributable to the Luobu subsidiary, was $74.0 million, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $48.6 million last year. Net losses increased due to the higher levels of expense required to support the growth of the business and the fact that Roblox defers a significant amount of revenue to later periods.</p>\n<p>Roblox anticipates reporting net losses in the near and medium term, while also generating positive cash from operations. This occurs because deferred revenues are not included on the income statement, since deferred revenues are not considered revenue until they are earned, while, deferred revenues are included in the statement of cash flows.</p>\n<p>Roblox Q3 GAAP EPS of -$0.13 beats estimates by $0.01.</p>\n<p>Young companies that are scaling often use a metric calledEBITDAbecause the early life stages of a company will often include a lot of financing and capital expenditures, which makes it hard to compare quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year operational profitability and efficiency.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7e6ec5f480a07e1dced7f84cf0a91285\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"349\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials</span></p>\n<p>Roblox adjusted EBITDA dropped to $135.7 million from a year-ago $161 million, which is an indication that this company is very much in investment mode to build out the Metaverse, which has been a very hot theme in the market lately.</p>\n<p><b>Balance Sheet</b></p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8de3420f79c56ccc0ea168bd56ee1f53\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"377\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Source: Roblox Q3 2021 Earnings Release</span></p>\n<p>Balance sheet had $1.93 billion in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at the end of the quarter.

The average price target is $114.40 with a high forecast of $150.00 and a low forecast of $70.00. The average price target represents a 17% decrease from the last price of $134.72.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e21a864bc21a4c71e07dd8e4b52fac31\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"417\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"></p>\n<p><b>Risks</b></p>\n<p><b>Short Term Risks</b>: Roblox now trades at a Price to Sales of 40, which is near the upper range of where it has traded since its IPO. This is a highly valued stock and if the company fails to execute and/or investors get nervous because of macroeconomic risks like rising interest rates, supply chain woes or potential war concerns over Taiwan, the stock could drop very rapidly.</p>\n<p>Another risk that has been a big knock on the stock of Roblox this year is that with lockdowns and school closures ending, it could affect engagement on the Roblox platform because the age demographics that currently use Roblox are mostly school age. Roblox's Q3 results has taken a lot of the wind out of the sails of that theory, as engagement is still healthy.</p>\n<p>Also, I don't think it is any accident that Roblox has announced a lot of education initiatives at its investor day. If Roblox is successful in getting educators to use Roblox in school systems around the country, then concerns that the school system will lower engagement from kids aged 7 to 18 will only go lower over time.</p>\n<p><b>Long Term Risk</b>: Roblox is a speculative stock. What investors are speculating on is that the concept of the Metaverse becomes popular and that Roblox will become one of the leading players in the Metaverse. If the Metaverse fails to reach the level of popularity that investors expect or Roblox fails to establish itself as one of the leading players in the Metaverse, then the stock will fall.</p>\n<p>Roblox will also have fierce competition in the Metaverse arena, including Meta, formerly known as Facebook and they will also have to face other large players like Nvidia's(NASDAQ:NVDA)&nbsp;Omniverse. Roblox currently has first mover advantages over most Metaverse players, as well as having the advantage of building the Roblox platform with trust and security in mind. This mindset is very different than Facebook, which sacrificed trust and security, in the name of growth on the Facebook platform. Roblox, on the other hand, took trust and security far more seriously very early on, probably after observing many of Facebook's mistakes in building a social network.</p>\n<p>Because of Roblox branding itself as safe and secure, any breach in that safety and security can damage the brand long term. Roblox has already had problems with its security, with some developers having found&nbsp;ways around restrictions&nbsp;around sexual content and dating, that Roblox wound up having to patch.</p>\n<p>Another concern is Roblox addiction. There is a fine line between driving more engagement and making children so addicted to the platform that they fail to develop real life social skills. Any adverse publicity on the topic of Roblox addiction where it is found that too much time in the Metaverse hurts people's mental health could hurt the company's long-term goal of raising engagement levels.</p>\n<p>Last but not least. Up until now, Roblox has been mostly for kids. Long-term, Roblox's business depends on its demographics spreading to adults.

The stock traded as high as $103.87 intraday in early June because of investor excitement over the possibility that Roblox could evolve into one of the first Metaverse companies.\nHowever, on June 15, Roblox released its May 2021 Key Metrics and the stock dropped 8% because of the perception that growth was slowing. The stock essentially stagnated by bouncing around between $70 and $90 until November 9th when the stock shot up 42% after reporting very strong Q3 earnings. Roblox was further propelled upwards by excitement over the company's future initiatives after the Roblox Investor Day on November 16.\n\nAfter such a massive move, that now has the stock back to trading at 40 times sales, investors might be wondering whether or not to chase the stock higher after such a huge move in a short period of time.\nData by YCharts\nReasons Why Roblox is Still a Buy\nRoblox started off simply as a platform where users could play games created by other users and share their own game creations to be played by others. However, if that was all there was to Roblox, then it would not likely be trading at a PS ratio of 40.\nSource: Roblox Presentation\nRoblox was designed almost from the beginning to be a human co-experience platform, which is now being more commonly called the Metaverse. The company's end goal is to have all human experiences that can be imagined to be available to be experienced with friends and family on the Roblox platform.\n\n Roblox's mission is to build a human co-experience platform that enables billions of users to come together to play, learn, communicate, explore and expand their friendships.\n\n\n Source:Roblox Corporate Overview\n\nThe concept of the Metaverse or a human co-experience platform is still a very speculative idea but if Roblox successfully gets a Metaverse platform up and running worldwide, it will stand to gain significant first mover advantages and could totally replace today's major social networks like Facebook. The upside in Roblox is potentially being larger than Facebook is today, if the company is successful. In fact, at least part of the reason that I think Facebook(NASDAQ:FB) changed its name to Meta and branded itself a Metaverse company is because I think Mark Zuckerberg sees the potential of Facebook getting disrupted by Roblox.\nWhat is the business model?\nLet me give a brief explanation on how the Roblox is monetized. Roblox uses a freemium model, where games are free to play but advanced features and customizations are only unlocked through paying with an in-game currency called Robux, which can be purchased either through gift cards, ala carte or through subscription.\nSource: Roblox Investor Day Presentation\nGrowth on the Roblox platform is largely organic and largely operates through word-of-mouth. There are two viral growth network effects associated with the platform, with one loop centered around content and the other loop centered around a social network.\nIn the content loop, developers and creators are the prime engine of growth by creating the content that powers the platform. The content attracts players which pay for the content, which allows developers to both make a living and reinvest the money they make into building better experiences. The better experiences result in even more players, higher engagement and more spend, which in turn attracts new developers and creators, while incentivizing existing creators and developers to create even more and higher quality experiences.\nIn Roblox's social network loop, players will play games with their friends, then invite even more of their friends to play the games which drives organic growth. The value of the Roblox platform increases to an individual when more of their friends play together. More friends and better experiences drive even more players to join.\nThis social network loop aspect of Roblox is also a huge competitive advantage for the company, as players want to play the games that they create with their friends, and it tends to make Roblox very sticky. This competitive advantage will also likely at some point turn into a powerful Network Effect Moat, if enough users join the platform.\nThe Key Factor\nThe key factor that drives monetization on the platform is engagement. The more engagement there is, the healthier the platform.\n\n Engagement is our north star. We're very pleased that during the third quarter, people of all ages from across the globe chose to spend over 11 billion hours on Roblox\n\n\n Source: Roblox CEO David Baszucki - Roblox Q3 2021 Shareholder Letter\n\nRoblox measures engagement through two metrics which are Daily Active Users (\"DAUs\") and hours engaged. In Q3, Roblox attracted an average of 47.3 million daily active users (DAUs) which was 31% higher than in Q3 of 2020 and was 2.6x larger than in Q3 of 2019. Users spent 11.2 billion hours engaged on the Roblox platform in Q3 of 2021, up 28% from Q3 in 2020 and up 3x over Q3 of 2019. From these increasing engagement numbers, Roblox is able to support its developer community, who earned over $130 million in the quarter and is on pace to earn well over $500 million this year.\nRoblox experienced severe headwinds in late October this year, as the company experienced a platform outage that shut everything down for three days. Prior to the outage, daily active users in October were 50.5 million, up 43% year-over-year. Hours of engagement in October were 3.2 billion, up 41% year-over-year. These numbers are an indication that Q4 numbers are likely to be strong when they get reported.\nWhat are the growth drivers Moving Forward?\nSource: Roblox Presentation\nThe four growth drivers that the company self-identified as a priority moving forward are:\n\nExtend International reach\nBroaden age demographics\nExpand how people use platform with new use cases\nGrow how engagement is monetized on platform\n\nInternational Expansion\nOf the four growth drivers, Roblox considers international expansion the most advanced. Currently, the rest of the world (\"ROW\") is growing faster than the USA and Canada together, which is currently at only 25% of the traffic on the platform. International Growth, like the US, occurs primarily through strong organic word of mouth in both users and developers.\nRoblox has also been developing powerful machine translation infrastructure, soon to be complete, that should be a big driver for international growth. This translation infrastructure will have the capability of doing translation into all supported languages, which is currently sitting at 11 different languages. In prior years, Roblox experiences had to be manually translated by the developer.\nBroaden Age Demographics\nUp until now, Roblox has shown great success reaching the 13 and under audience. However, for Roblox to reach its goals, the platform will have to broaden its demographics into a brand that appeals to all ages. The company plans to do this in several ways:\n\nEnable developers to build more polished experiences that will appeal to a wider range of users. Roblox is already giving tools to its developers to begin offering deeply immersive experiences through dynamic simulation, faster loading, and more sophisticated rendering.\nRapidly evolve avatar technology to be more realistic. Roblox management considers avatars important because it was discovered that they promote loyalty, engagement and an investment by the user in their virtual identity. Roblox plans on giving users a wider range of identity options, as well as giving users more options in clothing. Another area that Roblox needed improvement was facial animation. In December 2020, Roblox acquired facial tracking and animation company Loom.ai in a bid to make avatars more lifelike by doing things like giving them the ability to smile and make eye gestures.\nCreate better User Matching through better personalized recommendations based upon age, geography, and social graphing skill level. Roblox has also been working on content ratings based upon age. Since launching personalized search and discovery, there has been increased engagement from users as well as a wider distribution of engagement across all experiences which helps expand demographics through core network effects.\n\nUltimately, as the technology on the Roblox platform improves, the ability to create content for older users will improve and as more content for older ages appears, it should attract older users. Roblox is still in the very early stages of expanding the age demographics, yet is already seeing better usage in ages above 13. The 17-24 years old segment is currently growing very rapidly. Measuring by DAUs, approximately 50.4% of users are over the age of 13 this year, compared to 44.5% last year and 51.2% of engagement was from users over the age of 13, up from 40.8% two years ago.\nExpanding How People Use the Platform\nExpanding how people use platform should greatly enhance both DAUs and engagement hours. The Roblox platform is essentially a medium of shared experiences and Roblox is currently in the process of expanding the range of those shared experiences beyond simply playing games to things like education, shared music experiences (concerts), virtual shopping, to maybe even one day working in virtual environments.\nRoblox recently held an Investor Day, in which the company announced they were setting up a \"Roblox Education\" division that aims \"to support 100 million students learning on the Roblox platform by 2030\". Roblox plans to do this by building dynamic learning environments that educators can use to create educational content and to teach people how to code on the Roblox platform.\nRoblox is also creating a $10 million fund dedicated \"to bringing high-quality educational experiences to Roblox and to support educators in using Roblox Studio in their classrooms\". The company has major plans to use Roblox Studio to help teach \"computer science, design, and development courses\" to millions of children.\nThe stock has continued rising after its initial 42% jump after earnings and that is largely due to excitement over the news of Roblox expanding outside of games. Investors are just now becoming aware of the possibilities of the platform.\nGrowing The Roblox Economy\nRoblox plans on expanding the whole economic system that was built around gaming into other economic activities like \"high quality immersive brand advertising that is native and authentic\". Advertising is only the start because ultimately shopping in virtual stores could make its way on to the Roblox platform.\nThe basic building blocks to improving economic activity on the Roblox platform identified by the company include:\n\nRemoving friction in purchasing Robux on the platform. One example of Robux friction removal is the introduction of the Roblox premium subscription offering. Roblox premium offers two things for subscribers which are providing premium subscribers with a stipend of recurring Robux at a discounted rate and also providing premium features like a VIP pass that enables subscribers to get access to premium only features or items only available for purchase with a premium subscription. What this does for Roblox is turn the platform into more of a subscription offering, which increases the stability of Roblox bookings.\nMaking the process of purchasing the avatar and gear associated with the avatar, much easier. Also, improving how merchandise is created and sold on the platform. Roblox has long ago made the decision to make a move to a 100% user-generated content (\"UGC\") avatar marketplace. Prior to 2020, the avatar marketplace was primarily populated by Roblox designed items. Roblox is still relatively early in this transition to UGC.\nTesting ways to have select brands participate in the Roblox economy and engage with users in a way that enhances the user experience, which includes working with brands to sell branded merchandise in a catalogue. There are several examples of branding. One is with Disney(NYSE:DIS)having Avengers: Endgame themed collectibles available to be won in a game, another is Roblox teaming up with the NFL for a Superbowl promotion.Other examples of brands working with Roblox are entertainment brands working with Roblox to help them debut new content using interactive experiences like Ready Player One, Avengers and Aquaman. Roblox has even held concerts online and worked with artists like Ava Max on launching a single that attracted 1 million users. Various brands have also become interested in establishing their own presence on Roblox and Roblox calls these Branded Worlds. The first Branded World was launched with DC comics and today it has received millions of visitors. In an announcement made just recently, Nike(NYSE:NKE)teamed up with Roblox on building a 'Nikeland' virtual space.\n\nLet's now look at the earnings report that sent Roblox's stock up 42% in one day.\nRoblox Q3 2021 Earnings Report\nBefore getting into the revenues, I thought the following graphic from the Q3 2021 Supplemental materials would be very informative in describing how Roblox recognizes GAAP revenues:\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox Q3 2021 bookings grew 28% to $637.8 million compared to $496.5 million last year. For Roblox, booking growth is more important than revenue growth because bookings is actually recorded when people purchase Robux, but revenues are only recognized as users spend the Robux on the platform.\nThe company has also estimated October bookings between $177 million and $179 million, up 30% to 34% year-over-year, which is an indication that Q4 could also outperform.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nAverage bookings per daily active user (ABPDAU) was $13.49 in Q3 2021, compared to $13.73 last year. The small decline was due to a shift in the geographic mix of the user base. ABPDAU is defined as bookings in a given period divided by the DAUs for such period. The metric ABPDAU is used to understand monetization trends across active users when they buy virtual currency and subscriptions. This number is also sort of a proxy for the value of the platform to Daily Active Users.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nThe following graphic reconciles revenues to bookings and gives an investor a better idea of the relationship between revenues, deferred revenues and bookings.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Earnings Release\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRevenue in Q3 2021 was $509.3 million, an increase of 102% over Q3 2020. Cost of revenue totaled $130.0 million, up 98% year over year. Gross Profits were $379 million and Gross Margins were 74.47%.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nData by YCharts\nRoblox has additional Operating Expenses to the normal R&D, S&M, and G&A expenses, which are labelled by the company as Developer Exchange Fees and Infrastructure & Trust and Safety. The Developer Exchange Fee is the payout that developers can elect to receive by converting Robux back into real world cash, which Roblox reports as an expense. Infrastructure and Trust & Safety are the costs associated with running Roblox cloud and the costs of operating the platform with security, safety and trust in mind.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox is still heavily in investment mode, so operating expenses far exceed GAAP Gross Profit, resulting in an operating loss in Q3 2021 of $77.45 million compared to an operating loss of $51.52 million from the prior year.\nNet loss attributable to common stockholders, which includes a portion of the net loss attributable to the Luobu subsidiary, was $74.0 million, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $48.6 million last year. Net losses increased due to the higher levels of expense required to support the growth of the business and the fact that Roblox defers a significant amount of revenue to later periods.\nRoblox anticipates reporting net losses in the near and medium term, while also generating positive cash from operations. This occurs because deferred revenues are not included on the income statement, since deferred revenues are not considered revenue until they are earned, while, deferred revenues are included in the statement of cash flows.\nRoblox Q3 GAAP EPS of -$0.13 beats estimates by $0.01.\nYoung companies that are scaling often use a metric calledEBITDAbecause the early life stages of a company will often include a lot of financing and capital expenditures, which makes it hard to compare quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year operational profitability and efficiency.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox adjusted EBITDA dropped to $135.7 million from a year-ago $161 million, which is an indication that this company is very much in investment mode to build out the Metaverse, which has been a very hot theme in the market lately.\nBalance Sheet\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Earnings Release\nBalance sheet had $1.93 billion in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at the end of the quarter. There is no long-term debt on the balance sheet. The company has payables of $178.65 million.\nCash from operations, which is the amount of money a company brings in from its ongoing, regular business activities was $181.2 million.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox's Free Cash Flow, which is the amount of cash generated that is free and clear of all internal or external obligations, increased 7% over Q3 2020 to $170.6 million.\nSource: Roblox Q3 2021 Supplemental materials\nRoblox currently has a very solid balance sheet, positive cash flows, and the company has the ability to fund its growth initiatives.\nAnalyst Price Targets\nSource: Yahoo Finance\nThe above is based on 10 Wall Street analysts offering 12-month price targets for Roblox in the last 3 months. The average price target is $114.40 with a high forecast of $150.00 and a low forecast of $70.00. The average price target represents a 17% decrease from the last price of $134.72.\n\nRisks\nShort Term Risks: Roblox now trades at a Price to Sales of 40, which is near the upper range of where it has traded since its IPO. This is a highly valued stock and if the company fails to execute and/or investors get nervous because of macroeconomic risks like rising interest rates, supply chain woes or potential war concerns over Taiwan, the stock could drop very rapidly.\nAnother risk that has been a big knock on the stock of Roblox this year is that with lockdowns and school closures ending, it could affect engagement on the Roblox platform because the age demographics that currently use Roblox are mostly school age. Roblox's Q3 results has taken a lot of the wind out of the sails of that theory, as engagement is still healthy.\nAlso, I don't think it is any accident that Roblox has announced a lot of education initiatives at its investor day. If Roblox is successful in getting educators to use Roblox in school systems around the country, then concerns that the school system will lower engagement from kids aged 7 to 18 will only go lower over time.\nLong Term Risk: Roblox is a speculative stock. What investors are speculating on is that the concept of the Metaverse becomes popular and that Roblox will become one of the leading players in the Metaverse. If the Metaverse fails to reach the level of popularity that investors expect or Roblox fails to establish itself as one of the leading players in the Metaverse, then the stock will fall.\nRoblox will also have fierce competition in the Metaverse arena, including Meta, formerly known as Facebook and they will also have to face other large players like Nvidia's(NASDAQ:NVDA) Omniverse. Roblox currently has first mover advantages over most Metaverse players, as well as having the advantage of building the Roblox platform with trust and security in mind. This mindset is very different than Facebook, which sacrificed trust and security, in the name of growth on the Facebook platform. Roblox, on the other hand, took trust and security far more seriously very early on, probably after observing many of Facebook's mistakes in building a social network.\nBecause of Roblox branding itself as safe and secure, any breach in that safety and security can damage the brand long term. Roblox has already had problems with its security, with some developers having found ways around restrictions around sexual content and dating, that Roblox wound up having to patch.\nAnother concern is Roblox addiction. There is a fine line between driving more engagement and making children so addicted to the platform that they fail to develop real life social skills. Any adverse publicity on the topic of Roblox addiction where it is found that too much time in the Metaverse hurts people's mental health could hurt the company's long-term goal of raising engagement levels.\nLast but not least. Up until now, Roblox has been mostly for kids. Long-term, Roblox's business depends on its demographics spreading to adults. If Roblox fails in expanding its demographics, the stock will likely have far less upside than investors are currently enthusiastically pricing in.\nConclusion\nRoblox stock is a buy for very aggressive investors willing to speculate on the upside of the Metaverse. This stock is selling at a high valuation, so less aggressive investors might want to wait for the stock to pull back.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1283,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0},{"id":870717140,"gmtCreate":1636647167097,"gmtModify":1636647167208,"author":{"id":"3581295915321286","authorId":"3581295915321286","name":"DragonLee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3581295915321286","authorIdStr":"3581295915321286"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Mkt share not growing as much.... it needs to think of strategies to increase customer base.&nbsp; Think ahead of your competitors.&nbsp;","listText":"Mkt share not growing as much.... it needs to think of strategies to increase customer base.&nbsp; Think ahead of your competitors.&nbsp;","text":"Mkt share not growing as much.... it needs to think of strategies to increase customer base.
