This piece summarizes recent developments around
Electronic Arts (EA) from a wealth of sources. EA tallied impressive marks in the
opening week of SPORTS FC 24, revealed new features for
College Football 25, and released
quarterly earnings that slightly missed revenue expectations but aligned with analyst predictions. Major shifts include a
layoff of 5% of the workforce and cancellation of a
Star Wars game. EA also made headlines by prototyping
in-game ads, unveiling a new strategy game for mobile -
EA SPORTS FC Tactical, missing quarterly bookings due to lower consumer spending.
Eric Charles Kelly sold 3000 EA shares, while
Andrew Wilson offloaded 4639 shares. Despite workforce cuts, EA has reported significant growth due to EA Sports FC and Madden. Yet, FY 2024
revenue guidance fell below expectations, inciting concerns over return on capital. The board has authorized a
$5 billion share buyback. Electronic Arts also took an innovative step, partnering with Warner Chappell Music. These developments collectively shape EA's current landscape.
