RBLX 1Q26 First Take: 1Q was a bomb, missing badly. Stricter child-protection compliance across markets, a lull in new hits with tough YoY comps, and developer-friendly revenue-share changes all pressured near-term results. Management slashed guidance far more than the Street had baked in, clouding the high-growth narrative. We believe management has a history of sandbagging and that sharing more economics with developers can pay off long term. But near term the headwinds are exceptional. 1) Tighter rules + fewer hits, engagement down: DAUs and quarterly hours missed expectations, though third-party trackers meant some was anticipated. Since late Mar–early Apr, Indonesia and Brazil followed Russia in rolling out child protections, and with few breakout titles, the company expects user metrics could deteriorate further QoQ. 2) Broad guidance cut: The bigger blow was cutting Q2 and full-year bookings growth to 8–12%. That is a mature-platform pace, and putting the same range on Q2 and FY suggests limited visibility on 2H. With bookings slowing, revenue and profit guidance also had to come down. The Street did expect a reset, but ~10% growth hardly qualifies as a high-growth platform. Equating FY bookings growth with Q2 implicitly signals reduced visibility on the outlook. Management opted for a cautious stance. 3) Compliance and developer-friendly pain: The company incurred an extra $57 mn related to navigating compliance and settlement matters in 1Q. To address regulators’ concerns on child protection, Roblox implemented age-tiered accounts, which adds friction to registration/login and can weigh on user scale. To mitigate user-scale pressure, the new PLUS membership offers users a 10% discount, while developer payouts are calculated on the pre-discount amount, fully incentivizing creators. This increases platform costs, with developer payouts rising to 24% of bookings in Q1 vs. 22–23% last year. We support the developer-friendly approach from a long-term lens, but the near-term drag is real. Covenant adj. EBITDA was $420 mn, above consensus, at 24% of bookings. $Roblox(RBLX.US) $T-Rex 2X Long RBLX Daily Target ETF(RBLU.US)

RBLX 4Q25 First Take: Q4 was broadly constructive. With sentiment depressed for a while, growth fears finally eased. 1) Bookings beat: For Roblox, bookings are more forward-looking than revenue and thus more relevant; both Q4 results and Q1 guidance topped expectations. Given management's typically conservative guide, actuals may come in stronger, which is a notable boost to sentiment.2) Healthy user ecosystem: DAU and engagement hours maintained high growth in Q4, slightly ahead of estimates. All four regions saw double-digit growth in daily time spent vs. last year.Total hours declined QoQ by a bit more than seasonal, but summer 2025 set a high watermark with multiple blockbusters clustering, making the cooldown look sharper than third-party trackers suggest. Previously, as top titles normalized, third-party data showed a steep QoQ drop vs. Q3 in platform activity.3) Monetization deepening: Strong bookings were driven by Robux purchases and the ad business launched last year. Ads will dilute ARPDAU near term, so bookings per user fell YoY.That said, it reduces reliance on pure user spend; monthly payers are increasing, further improving the platform's economic flywheel.4) Higher developer payout: The developer payout rate rose again in Q4; since Sep last year, Roblox lifted developer revenue share by 8.5%, raising post-transaction Robux earnings from 35% to 38%. Dolphin Research has long argued that sharing more with developers helps scale the ecosystem.Covenant adj. EBITDA was $690 mn, beating consensus by $100 mn, at 31% of bookings, up QoQ and YoY. $Roblox(RBLX.US) $T-Rex 2X Long RBLX Daily Target ETF(RBLU.US)
