The new model improvements boosted AppLovin's gaming ad monetization by nearly +50% YoY, leading to the +55% revenue and +59% adj EBITDA growth in FQ3'26. The asset-light, ad-tech model drives their richer FCF generation, healthier balance sheet, and shareholder returns through share repurchases. Despite the post-earnings rally, APP trades at discounted EV/EBITDA multiples versus peers, with it underscoring the >40% upside potential to my LTPT of $524.40.
