Earnings Recap (8/9/22)

Roblox is learning that investors don’t play games regarding earnings. 🎮

$RBLX shares are down close to 17% after its earnings and revenue numbers were below expectations. The company also reported 52.2 million average daily active users, nearly one million under expectations. Additionally, average bookings per daily user were down 21% YoY to $12.25. 📉

The company says the drop-off is expected given its rapid growth during the pandemic and that its long-term investments will negatively impact earnings in the short term.
