Yalla Group (ISIN US98459U1034) stock costs EUR 4.99 at Lang & Schwarz on October 20, 2026, while its second-quarter game services revenue reached USD 34.2 million. The latest company figures show gaming growth alongside heavier investment in new titles.
Gaming revenue gains ground
Yahoo Finance reported that Yalla generated USD 82.6 million in revenue in the second quarter of 2026, compared with USD 84.6 million in the same period of 2025. Game services revenue grew 11.6 percent year over year to USD 34.2 million, lifting the segment to 41.4 percent of total revenue.
The trade-off was higher spending. Selling and marketing expenses rose 106 percent year over year to USD 17.8 million in the second quarter, while non-GAAP net margin remained 41.7 percent. Average monthly active users reached 47.6 million, up 12.3 percent from a year earlier.
What does the gaming shift mean?
The figures point to a measurable change in Yalla's revenue mix, but they also put pressure on near-term profitability. Management said on the August 18, 2026 earnings call that third-quarter revenue was expected between USD 78 million and USD 85 million, while full-year 2026 revenue was expected to remain broadly in line with the prior year. The same call said the company was expanding Turbo Match and other games in the United States and Europe.

On October 14, 2026, MarketBeat said Weiss Ratings lifted Yalla from Hold C to Hold C+.
