Should You Buy U Shares?

The numbers are only rising for Unity! Here are some statistics that evidence the growth of Unity in the future. Unity recorded its updated quarterly revenue income from the end of September to November 2021.

The total income generated was 286 million dollars (approximately)

  • Revenue went up by 43 per cent each year.
  • Management raised their annual guidance to 40 per cent higher, resulting in total revenue of 1.08 billion dollars.
  • The solution alone produced revenue of 83 million dollars this quarter with a growth of 34 per cent every year.
  • The Operate solution produced a revenue of 185 million dollars in this quarter with a growth of 54 per cent every year, making it the most important part of the business for monetizing content.

There’s A Catch regarding the income statement. In this sector, Unity faced slack in profit-making aspects. There are reports of a loss of nearly 126 million dollars in the third quarter, making it comparatively unprofitable. Yet, positive cash flow in this quarter produced a profit of 34.2 million dollars and a free cash flow margin of 12 per cent. It is evident that soon Unity will keep growing and eventually find its way to make large profits out of free cash flow in 2022 and beyond. So investors should take into consideration the addressable market of the company. None of Unity’s Solutions features in the top-grossing mobile games on Alphabet’s Google Play Store. This means that the company has a long way to go . Considering this now is not the time to buy U shares at the moment.
