Electronic Arts Inc. (EA) reported fiscal fourth-quarter results that exceeded analyst expectations, driven by strong performances in its sports franchises and the successful launch of new titles. For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, EA posted net bookings of $1.8 billion, up 8% year-over-year and above the $1.56 billion estimate. Revenue reached $1.895 billion, and net income grew nearly 40% to $254 million, or $0.98 per share. Adjusted earnings per share were $1.58. The company's growth was attributed to the reacceleration of EA Sports FC, continued momentum in its American Football segment, and double-digit net bookings growth in The Sims, which marked its 25th anniversary. EA's American Football games, including Madden NFL and College Football, generated over $1 billion in net bookings, up 70% from the previous year. Live services accounted for 73% of full-year net bookings. A key highlight was the launch of Split Fiction, developed by Hazelight Studios, which sold nearly four million copies since its March debut and was described by EA as a 'hugely successful launch.' Split Fiction was the main driver of growth in full game sales for the quarter, contributing to a 1% increase in full-year full game sales to $2.02 billion. For the full fiscal year 2025, EA reported net revenue of $7.46 billion and net bookings of $7.36 billion. Net income for the year was $1.12 billion, or $4.25 per share. Net cash provided by operating activities was $549 million for the quarter and $2.08 billion for the year. The company repurchased 9.8 million shares for $1.38 billion and announced a 19-cent per share dividend. During the year, EA implemented layoffs at Respawn and other divisions as part of cost management efforts. Looking ahead, EA forecasts fiscal 2026 net bookings between $7.6 billion and $8 billion, above consensus estimates. First-quarter bookings guidance is between $1.175 billion and $1.275 billion. The company plans to reveal the next Battlefield installment in the summer, with over 600,000 signups for Battlefield Labs, and intends to launch both Battlefield and Skate within the fiscal year.
