Needham reiterated a Buy rating and $159 price target on Roblox Corp. (NYSE:RBLX) following key announcements at the company’s developer conference.
The analysts pointed to four takeaways: the launch of “Moments,” a new search and discovery feature management viewed as potentially transformational; plans to enable off-site advertising for experiences, marking a major new monetization opportunity; rising developer expenses, already incorporated into guidance; and continued platform enhancements supporting growth.
Needham said the new initiatives could drive higher engagement, stronger in-app purchases, and broader advertising opportunities, reinforcing Roblox’s growth trajectory.
