Selecting metaverse-centric companies can be risky, as most do not have another revenue-producing vertical. The better option right now might be to find stocks like Unity Software(NYSE:U),Match Group(NASDAQ:MTCH), and Autodesk(NASDAQ:ADSK)that have metaverse use cases as well as real-world applications to generate needed revenue to fund their expansions. Let&#39;s take a closer look at these three stocks.<blockquote>由于没有人知道元宇宙将持有什么，投资机会是广泛的。选择以元宇宙为中心的公司可能有风险，因为大多数公司没有其他创收垂直行业。现在更好的选择可能是寻找这样的股票Unity软件（纽约证券交易所代码：U），匹配组（纳斯达克：MTCH），以及Autodesk（纳斯达克：ADSK）拥有元宇宙用例以及现实世界的应用程序，可以产生所需的收入来资助其扩张。让我们仔细看看这三只股票。</blockquote><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/dd5f9f69de71f16dd891ed9d3d71dbae\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1125\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.<blockquote>图片来源：盖蒂图片社。</blockquote>1. Unity Software<blockquote>1.Unity软件</blockquote>Without realistic graphics, the metaverse will likely never catch on. Unity Software&#39;s 3D animation software creates lifelike representations that have use cases in multiple industries. Its main focus is video games, and it has the tools developers need to monetize and grow the games. Augmented and virtual reality represent huge potential for Unity, and it is already integrated with architectural design software like Autocad&#39;s Revit.<blockquote>如果没有逼真的图形，元宇宙可能永远不会流行起来。Unity Software的3D动画软件创建逼真的表示，在多个行业都有用例。它的主要关注点是视频游戏，它拥有开发者赚钱和发展游戏所需的工具。增强和虚拟现实代表了Unity的巨大潜力，它已经与Autocad的Revit等建筑设计软件集成在一起。</blockquote>In November, Unity acquired Weta Digital, a media company specializing in 3D creation, simulation, and rendering. During Unity&#39;s third-quarter conference call, CEO John Riccitiello said, &#34;We plan to offer a cloud-based version of Weta for the millions of consumers who generate content every day on social and gaming platforms and on the web or to use the current vernacular, the metaverse.&#34; Unity sees opportunity in the metaverse and is acting to capture significant market share.<blockquote>11月，Unity收购了专门从事3D创作、模拟和渲染的媒体公司维塔数码。在Unity第三季度电话会议上，首席执行官John Riccitiello表示，“我们计划为每天在社交和游戏平台以及网络上生成内容或使用当前方言的数百万消费者提供基于云的Weta版本，元宇宙。”Unity看到了元宇宙的机遇，并正在采取行动占领重要的市场份额。</blockquote>Q3 results were solid; revenue increased 43% year over year, and Unity increased the number of customers spending more than $100,000 by 32% to 973. Additionally, it maintained a strong 142% net retention rate, showcasing how much customers are expanding their usage of Unity&#39;s offerings.<blockquote>第三季度业绩稳健；收入同比增长43%，Unity将消费超过10万美元的客户数量增加了32%，达到973人。此外，它还保持了142%的强劲净保留率，显示了客户正在扩大对Unity产品的使用。</blockquote>Management&#39;s full-year guidance includes breaking the $1 billion revenue mark. If Unity&#39;s metaverse role becomes as big as it thinks, revenue will far surpass this level.<blockquote>管理层的全年指导包括突破10亿美元的收入大关。如果Unity的元宇宙角色变得像它想象的那么大，收入将远远超过这个水平。</blockquote>2. Match Group<blockquote>2.比赛组</blockquote>Online dating has become ingrained in modern society. When someone introduces a significant other or spouse, proclaiming that they met online is far less likely to be derided. While Match Group has improved its dating platforms like Tinder and Hinge by adding video communication and voice samples on a profile, it is still an app with a matching feature, not a real-life simulation.<blockquote>网上约会已经在现代社会根深蒂固。当有人介绍一个重要的另一半或配偶时，宣称他们是在网上认识的就不太可能被嘲笑。虽然Match Group通过在个人资料上添加视频通信和语音样本来改进其约会平台，如Tinder和Hinge，但它仍然是一个具有匹配功能的应用程序，而不是现实生活中的模拟。</blockquote>Shar Dubey, Match&#39;s CEO, spoke about a new product called Singletown during Match&#39;s Q3 conference call. She described one area as a piano bar setting where people gathered virtually, but an individual played the piano in real life. Instead of yelling over bar noises to get someone&#39;s attention, users could click on the profile, adjust the ambient noises, and have a meaningful conversation. This is just one metaverse application Match has tested, but it could become the ultimate dating app if successful.<blockquote>Match首席执行官Shar Dubey在Match第三季度电话会议上谈到了一款名为Singletown的新产品。她将一个区域描述为一个钢琴酒吧，人们虚拟地聚集在那里，但一个人在现实生活中弹钢琴。用户可以点击个人资料，调整环境噪音，进行有意义的对话，而不是对着酒吧噪音大喊大叫来引起别人的注意。这只是Match测试的一个元宇宙应用程序，但如果成功，它可能会成为终极约会应用程序。</blockquote>While new ideas are on the horizon, Match Group reports excellent results. Revenue eclipsed $800 million during Q3, growing at a 25% clip. Its most profitable region, Asia-Pacific (APAC), increased its paying users by 36%. It still has a large capturable demographic located there, as total payers in the Americas were 8.3 million versus 3.3 million in APAC.<blockquote>虽然新的想法即将出现，Match Group报告了出色的结果。第三季度收入超过8亿美元，增长25%。其最赚钱的地区亚太地区(APAC)的付费用户增长了36%。它仍然有大量可捕捉的人口，因为美洲的支付者总数为830万，而APAC为330万。</blockquote>After being spun out from IAC/InterActiveCorp(NASDAQ:IAC), its balance sheet was loaded with debt. Match Group is reducing its debt and has proved it by reducing its net leverage ratio from 4.6 times (June 30, 2020) to 3.3 times (Sept. 31, 2021). It does this by channeling its free cash flow generated with a 28% margin to repurchase exchangeable notes.<blockquote>在从IAC/InterActiveCorp（纳斯达克：IAC），其资产负债表负债累累。Match Group正在减少债务，并通过将净杠杆率从4.6倍（2020年6月30日）降至3.3倍（2021年9月31日）来证明这一点。它通过将28%利润率产生的自由现金流用于回购可交换票据来实现这一目标。</blockquote>Match Group is improving its balance sheet, growing rapidly, and displaying exceptional optionality. It is a strong stock pick that will succeed regardless of the metaverse&#39;s success.<blockquote>Match Group正在改善其资产负债表，快速增长，并显示出非凡的选择性。无论元宇宙是否成功，这都是一个强有力的股票选择，它都会取得成功。</blockquote>3. Autodesk<blockquote>3.欧特克</blockquote>Engineers and architects use Autodesk&#39;s flagship products to design buildings and other manufacturable goods. Revit, a building information modeling (BIM) program, allows architects to visualize their designs and showcase them to customers. These creations can be transformed into a virtual reality setting with plugins like Autodesk Rendering. It doesn&#39;t take much imagination to understand how these products could be utilized in the metaverse.<blockquote>工程师和建筑师使用Autodesk的旗舰产品来设计建筑和其他可制造的产品。Revit是一个建筑信息建模(BIM)程序，允许建筑师可视化他们的设计并向客户展示。这些创作可以通过Autodesk Rendering等插件转换成虚拟现实设置。不需要太多想象力就能理解如何在元宇宙中利用这些产品。</blockquote>A few years ago, Autodesk switched to a subscription pricing model. Since then, revenue has gone straight up.<blockquote>几年前，Autodesk转向了订阅定价模式。从那以后，收入直线上升。</blockquote><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c5d048242f7be8ccb28568095927f14d\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"433\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>ADSK REVENUE (TTM) DATA BY YCHARTS.<blockquote>YCHARTS提供的ADSK收入(TTM)数据。</blockquote>Companies can no longer buy Autodesk&#39;s software and use it until it upgrades. Instead, Autodesk requires an annual license, creating a recurring revenue stream.<blockquote>公司不能再购买Autodesk的软件并使用它，直到它升级。相反，Autodesk需要年度许可证，从而创造经常性收入流。</blockquote>This business model has delivered strong results. During Q3, which ended Oct. 31, Autodesk&#39;s revenue rose 18% to $1.12 billion, with subscription revenue making up 95% of the total. Margins were also strong, with operating margins of 17% (GAAP) and 32% (non-GAAP). Autodesk also gives investors international exposure.<blockquote>这种商业模式取得了强劲的成果。截至10月31日的第三季度，Autodesk的收入增长了18%，达到11.2亿美元，其中订阅收入占总收入的95%。利润率也很强劲，营业利润率分别为17%（GAAP）和32%（非GAAP）。Autodesk还为投资者提供国际投资机会。</blockquote><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/71669bda1905e96ae8ff387a49164721\" tg-width=\"1150\" tg-height=\"338\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>SOURCE: AUTODESK.<blockquote>资料来源：欧特克。</blockquote>The stock price took a dive after reporting earnings, cratering 15%. The sell-off can be attributed more to what analysts expected than to management guidance, even though Autodesk still projected 15% growth. After the sell-off, Autodesk trades at a 47 price-to-earnings ratio. While it has recovered from its lows, Autodesk is still a strong buy with more growth on the horizon.<blockquote>公布财报后，股价暴跌15%。尽管Autodesk仍预计增长15%，但抛售更多地归因于分析师的预期，而不是管理层的指导。抛售后，Autodesk的市盈率为47倍。尽管Autodesk已从低点回升，但它仍然是值得买入的，而且未来还会有更多增长。</blockquote>Investor takeaway<blockquote>投资者要点</blockquote>How large and what the metaverse becomes is only limited by the creator&#39;s imagination. Fortunately, companies like Unity Software and Autodesk are designing the building blocks needed to enable businesses like Match Group to build their metaverse vision. Even if the metaverse flops, each company will still have a thriving business underneath. Growth investors should consider each stock moving into 2022 and beyond.<blockquote>元宇宙变得多大，变成什么样子，只受造物主想象力的限制。幸运的是，Unity Software和Autodesk等公司正在设计所需的构建模块，使Match Group等企业能够构建其元宇宙愿景。即使元宇宙失败了，每家公司的业务仍然会蒸蒸日上。成长型投资者应该考虑每只股票进入2022年及以后。</blockquote></body></html><blockquote></blockquote>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 Metaverse Stocks That Could Help Make You a Fortune<blockquote>3只可以帮助您致富的元宇宙股票</blockquote></title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 Metaverse Stocks That Could Help Make You a Fortune<blockquote>3只可以帮助您致富的元宇宙股票</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nMotley Fool2021-12-29 17:33\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><head></head><body>Like it or not, the metaverse is coming.

The better option right now might be to find stocks like Unity Software(NYSE:U),Match Group(NASDAQ:MTCH), and Autodesk(NASDAQ:ADSK)that have metaverse use cases as well as real-world applications to generate needed revenue to fund their expansions. Let's take a closer look at these three stocks.IMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.1. Unity SoftwareWithout realistic graphics, the metaverse will likely never catch on. Unity Software's 3D animation software creates lifelike representations that have use cases in multiple industries. Its main focus is video games, and it has the tools developers need to monetize and grow the games. Augmented and virtual reality represent huge potential for Unity, and it is already integrated with architectural design software like Autocad's Revit.In November, Unity acquired Weta Digital, a media company specializing in 3D creation, simulation, and rendering. During Unity's third-quarter conference call, CEO John Riccitiello said, \"We plan to offer a cloud-based version of Weta for the millions of consumers who generate content every day on social and gaming platforms and on the web or to use the current vernacular, the metaverse.\" Unity sees opportunity in the metaverse and is acting to capture significant market share.Q3 results were solid; revenue increased 43% year over year, and Unity increased the number of customers spending more than $100,000 by 32% to 973. Additionally, it maintained a strong 142% net retention rate, showcasing how much customers are expanding their usage of Unity's offerings.Management's full-year guidance includes breaking the $1 billion revenue mark. If Unity's metaverse role becomes as big as it thinks, revenue will far surpass this level.2. Match GroupOnline dating has become ingrained in modern society. When someone introduces a significant other or spouse, proclaiming that they met online is far less likely to be derided. While Match Group has improved its dating platforms like Tinder and Hinge by adding video communication and voice samples on a profile, it is still an app with a matching feature, not a real-life simulation.Shar Dubey, Match's CEO, spoke about a new product called Singletown during Match's Q3 conference call. She described one area as a piano bar setting where people gathered virtually, but an individual played the piano in real life. Instead of yelling over bar noises to get someone's attention, users could click on the profile, adjust the ambient noises, and have a meaningful conversation. This is just one metaverse application Match has tested, but it could become the ultimate dating app if successful.While new ideas are on the horizon, Match Group reports excellent results. Revenue eclipsed $800 million during Q3, growing at a 25% clip. Its most profitable region, Asia-Pacific (APAC), increased its paying users by 36%. It still has a large capturable demographic located there, as total payers in the Americas were 8.3 million versus 3.3 million in APAC.After being spun out from IAC/InterActiveCorp(NASDAQ:IAC), its balance sheet was loaded with debt. Match Group is reducing its debt and has proved it by reducing its net leverage ratio from 4.6 times (June 30, 2020) to 3.3 times (Sept. 31, 2021). It does this by channeling its free cash flow generated with a 28% margin to repurchase exchangeable notes.Match Group is improving its balance sheet, growing rapidly, and displaying exceptional optionality. It is a strong stock pick that will succeed regardless of the metaverse's success.3. AutodeskEngineers and architects use Autodesk's flagship products to design buildings and other manufacturable goods. Revit, a building information modeling (BIM) program, allows architects to visualize their designs and showcase them to customers. These creations can be transformed into a virtual reality setting with plugins like Autodesk Rendering. It doesn't take much imagination to understand how these products could be utilized in the metaverse.A few years ago, Autodesk switched to a subscription pricing model. Since then, revenue has gone straight up.ADSK REVENUE (TTM) DATA BY YCHARTS.Companies can no longer buy Autodesk's software and use it until it upgrades. Instead, Autodesk requires an annual license, creating a recurring revenue stream.This business model has delivered strong results. During Q3, which ended Oct. 31, Autodesk's revenue rose 18% to $1.12 billion, with subscription revenue making up 95% of the total. Margins were also strong, with operating margins of 17% (GAAP) and 32% (non-GAAP). Autodesk also gives investors international exposure.SOURCE: AUTODESK.The stock price took a dive after reporting earnings, cratering 15%. The sell-off can be attributed more to what analysts expected than to management guidance, even though Autodesk still projected 15% growth. After the sell-off, Autodesk trades at a 47 price-to-earnings ratio. While it has recovered from its lows, Autodesk is still a strong buy with more growth on the horizon.Investor takeawayHow large and what the metaverse becomes is only limited by the creator's imagination. Fortunately, companies like Unity Software and Autodesk are designing the building blocks needed to enable businesses like Match Group to build their metaverse vision. Even if the metaverse flops, each company will still have a thriving business underneath. Growth investors should consider each stock moving into 2022 and beyond.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"MTCH":0.9,"ADSK":0.9,"U":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":3810,"commentLimit":10,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"symbols":[],"verified":2,"subType":0,"readableState":1,"langContent":"CN","currentLanguage":"CN","warmUpFlag":false,"orderFlag":false,"shareable":true,"causeOfNotShareable":"","featuresForAnalytics":[],"commentAndTweetFlag":false,"andRepostAutoSelectedFlag":false,"upFlag":false,"length":10,"xxTargetLangEnum":"ZH_CN"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"isTiger":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"url":"/m/post/696729833"}
