Roblox shares tumble after Q3 results and weaker Q4 bookings outlook

Roblox reported third‑quarter 2026 bookings of $1.70 billion, down 12% year‑over‑year, and revenue of $1.57 billion. Daily active users fell 9% to 138 million, and the number of paying users dropped 16%. The company forecast fourth‑quarter bookings of $1.89‑$2.00 billion, a 10%‑15% decline year‑over‑year, and an adjusted EBITDA loss of $10‑$70 million. The outlook sent the stock down about 18% to $42.99‑$43 and prompted analysts to cut price targets.

DA Davidson lowered its price target to $48 from $50, and other analysts trimmed targets, reflecting the weaker bookings guidance (DA Davidson note). The lower guidance suggests reduced near‑term revenue growth, pressuring investors holding the stock.
