Roblox was crushed on 4Q21 earnings, owing to a weak guidance for January due to tough Covid comps.
We think the selloff is overdone given the still strong user growth and the "of course" normalization that was due to occur after incredible growth for the past two years.
Once growth normalizes midyear, the platform narrative will resume as reaccelerating core growth and 2023 advertising growth comes into view. A likely double from here.
