Investing.com - Oppenheimer maintained its Outperform rating and $125.00 price target on Roblox Corp . (NYSE:RBLX) on Monday, citing potential bookings upside from the popular game Grow a Garden. The stock, currently trading at $102.09, has surged 182% over the past year and sits near its 52-week high of $103.57, according to InvestingPro data.
The research firm believes most investors have underestimated the second-quarter 2025 bookings potential from Grow a Garden, failing to recognize the game’s momentum driven by effective live operations and social media popularity.
Under aggressive assumptions, Oppenheimer sees Roblox’s quarterly bookings run-rate at the end of June potentially reaching 66% above management’s high-end guidance, which would represent 106% year-over-year growth compared to the 25% growth reflected in the company’s guidance.
Even with more conservative projections, the firm still anticipates at least 10% upside to the high end of management’s guidance, implying over 40% year-over-year bookings growth for the second quarter of 2025.
The analysis follows Oppenheimer’s recent conversation with Splitting Point Studios, the developer behind Grow a Garden, which informed the firm’s outlook on Roblox’s near-term performance potential.
