Unity Software has launched a free Ad Quality tool, a standalone SDK, to enhance game developers' commercial success. Analysts forecast varied price targets, suggesting a potential downside of 15.05% from the current price of $40.34. The company anticipates mid-single-digit revenue growth in Q3 2025.

Unity Software (NYSE: U) has announced the broad availability of its Ad Quality tool, now available as a free, standalone SDK for all publishers, regardless of mediation platform. This move is aimed at enhancing game developers' commercial success by providing a more controlled, higher-quality ad experience.

This transparency and control are crucial for protecting the player experience and preserving the integrity of games.

Unity's announcement comes on the heels of mixed Q2 performance, with adjusted EBITDA margins at 21% and record free cash flow of $127 million. The company's stock has surged 64% over the past three months, driven by robust growth in the Unity Ad Network and Create subscription revenue. However, concerns about potential cannibalization of ironSource revenue and the scalability of the business remain.
