Read MoreHide Full Article
Roblox (RBLX - Free Report) is set to report fourth-quarter 2021 results on Feb 15.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $763.11 million. The consensus mark for loss improved by 7.14% at 13 cents per share in the past 30 days.
Let’s see how things have shaped up prior to this announcement.
Roblox Corporation Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
Roblox’s fourth-quarter performance is expected to have benefited from growth in the company’s community of users and developers. This is expected to have driven sales of Robux, the currency used in Roblox, thereby aiding the top line.
The company’s fastest-growing demographic is between 17-to 24-year-olds. The Roblox developer community has been focused on tackling this expanding market with a robust content portfolio, updates and more innovative experiences featuring visuals and effects.
The company is expected to have benefited from the strong cash flow generated from Robux sales. Users spend Robux on experiences and items for their avatars, while developers and creators earn Robux by building experiences and items for users.
As measured on Jan 1, 2022, the median user on Roblox visited 40 unique experiences over the course of 2021.
In third-quarter 2021, the average daily active users (DAU) reached 47.3 million, up 31% year over year. Average bookings per DAU (ABPDAU) were $13.49, reflecting a 1.75% decline year over year. The game was offline for three days between Oct 28 and Oct 31.
Roblox also reported a 43% year-over-year growth in daily active users during the first 27 days of October 2021.
