The EPS miss is significant relative to consensus, but the underlying business trends (advertising growth, margin expansion, user engagement) remain solid. Watch for management commentary on the mobile games pipeline and any guidance on Q3 2026 to assess whether the EPS miss is a one-off or a trend. The strong buyback activity ($118M YTD) provides a floor, but the stock may face near-term pressure from the headline miss.
