About: AppLovin is a vertically integrated advertising technology company that acts as a demand-side platform for advertisers, a supply-side platform for publishers, and an exchange facilitating transactions between the two. About 80% of AppLovin's revenue comes from the DSP, AppDiscovery, while the remainder comes from the SSP, Max, and gaming studios, which develop mobile games. AppLovin announced in February 2025 its plans to divest from the lower-margin gaming studios to focus exclusively on the ad tech platform. AppLovin's primary tool for future growth is Axon 2, which is an ad optimizer operating within the DSP that allows advertisers to place ads according to specified return thresholds.

AppLovin: A Golden Buying Opportunity
I am upgrading AppLovin (APP) to 'Strong Buy' as its financial growth far outpaces its modest 2025 share price appreciation. APP's valuation is highly attractive, with strong revenue and EPS growth, bullish earnings revisions, and a forward P/E ratio that justifies current multiples. Upcoming Q2 earnings look bullish due to positive EPS revisions and strategic divestments, positioning APP for improved long-term profitability.
