Roblox 10-K Analysis: $6.8 Billion in Bookings, $1.1 Billion in Losses
Roblox — the gaming platform with 85 million daily active users — reported $6.8 billion in bookings and $4.9 billion in revenue for FY2025, with $1.36 billion in free cash flow. But the 10-K reveals a $1.07 billion GAAP loss bridged almost entirely by $1.13 billion in stock-based compensation. Meanwhile, 63% of that revenue came from prior-year bookings, recognized through a $6.5 billion deferred revenue liability controlled by a single 27-month accounting estimate. The structural cost floor consumes 66.6% of revenue before any personnel costs, $1.6 billion in new lease commitments will double infrastructure expenses, and FY2026 GAAP losses are guided to widen even as revenue grows 25%.
