“Attorney General Ken Paxton sued the Roblox Corporation, a multi-billion-dollar company that operates one of the largest online gaming sites for children, for flagrantly ignoring state and federal online safety laws while deceiving parents about the dangers of its platform.”

Pourquoi : ce qu'ils disent à leurs investisseurs

Sentences copied word for word from the latest annual report of the company behind Roblox. Companies must tell investors what their business depends on.

“We generate substantially all of our revenue through the sale of or access to virtual items to users, enabling them to enhance their experience on the Roblox Platform.”

Where the money comes from, in the company's own words.

Roblox Corp · annual report (Form 10-K) filed with the US SEC on 2026-02-11 · source · SHA-256 8f8bd3685e34…

“If we fail to retain users or add new users, or if our users decrease their level of engagement with our Platform, our revenue, bookings, and operating results will be harmed.”

In plain words: when people use it less, the company says its results suffer.
