Electronic Arts (EA) has been a subject of various
financial maneuvers, experiencing a
0.9% increase following their last earnings report. Despite shutting down a game released last year, EA has managed to maintain steady investor interest with games like the multi-award nominated
Battlefield 6, which has shattered franchise records. However, their attempt to use
AI technology for game development has reportedly backfired. In an unexpected turn, EA is going private, stirring speculations about what this might mean for its stakeholders, particularly after
Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund splurged on EA and is now reportedly tightening its pursestrings. Expansion efforts are evident in their partnership with the NFL and The Athletic, aiming to engage next-generation fans. Recent buyout rumors suggest that EA might be undervaluing its shareholders. The gaming giant is gearing up to be acquired and taken private for $55bn, a move questioned by some based on its financial computations. EA's association with Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund could position it for competition in the Asia-led mobile gaming business. Amidst these developments, EA continues to make efforts in bolstering its franchises and has proposed partnerships with James Cameron-backed Stability AI to develop game developer tools.
