Guidance for Q32021
Challenges
Although slightly more than 50% of gaming developers are using Unity Engine, there are formidable competition from other platforms including Cocos2d and Epic Games' platform known as Unreal Engine. Epic Games had some successes with Fortnite but is now embroiled in battle with Apple $蘋果(AAPL.US)$ on anti-trust laws.
The other concerns is revenue from advertising may be affected by the Apple's decision to remove Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) that is essential for targeted advertising. However, Unity CFO, Luis Felipe Visoso mentioned in Q2 2021 earnings report that Unity was well prepared and managed to build market share.
Future ahead
Unity has been onboarding many non-gaming industries including eyewear manufacturer, The Nature Conservatory to use their Unity Engine. The application of Unity software is likely limited by clients' imagination instead of technical capabilities.
Unity has also been actively acquiring synergistic companies to provide even better services to clients.
Recently, Unity also launched Unity Gaming Services – a new platform experience that unifies Unity’s existing Operate Solutions for games and introduces new tools and services that simplify any developer’s ability to launch cross platform, multiplayer games. This is likely due to demand for multiplayer games. The seamless work across Unity's tools would definitely make it sticker for existing subscribers to continue.
Fun fact:
Did you know the popular game Pokémon Go was built using Unity Engine?
Chart
Unity chart has been in a very nice up trending channel since May 2021. The volume since Feb till June 2021, seems to suggest accumulation phase. The breakout in Aug 2021, was pivotal for Unity to continue the quite aggressive up moves. It is very likely the price will challenge all time high $175, if the upcoming Q3 2021 earnings result is positive.
Else, price may drop back to $140 region.
Conclusion
Unity does have a bright future ahead. With hardware such as GPU, AR and VR enabled devices getting more common, the demand for RT3D applications will continue to surge. The pandemic also in a way pointed a direction towards metaverse. The potential is endless but as an investor, do take note of risks as Unity has yet to make money.
Eagerly waiting for Q3 2021 earning results…
