AppLovin shares soared 45% on Thursday after the online gaming and advertising company issued guidance that was well above estimates and reported better-than-expected earnings and revenue.
For the fourth quarter, AppLovin sees revenue of $1.24 billion to $1.26 billion, representing growth of about 31% at the middle of the range.
The company said software platform revenue in the quarter increased 66% to $835 million, driven by improvements in AXON's models.
Net income in the quarter increased 300% to $434.4 million, or $1.25 a share, from $108.6 million, or 30 cents a share, a year earlier.
"AppLovin continues to impress with outsized revenue growth and incredible EBITDA conversion," analysts at Wedbush wrote in a report on Thursday.
