Electronic Arts (EA) is currently undergoing a significant acquisition, which has led to the suspension of their earnings announcements. As a result, the company will not be hosting earnings calls or releasing quarterly performance insights at this time.
Shacknews confirmed with Monica Roldan, Program Manager and Executive Assistant at EA Investor Relations, that due to the pending leveraged buyout, EA will not post earnings results or hold conference calls. This decision has affected investors and consumers who were eagerly awaiting the Q2 FY26 earnings report.
Recently, EA confirmed a $55 billion sale to a consortium comprising the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund (PIF), Silver Lake, and Affinity Partners. This leveraged buyout will be an all-cash transaction, offering stockholders $210 per share.
However, the deal has faced criticism. Worker unions and several U.S. senators have expressed concerns, particularly regarding studios labeled as “less profitable.” These groups argue that despite these studios’ significant contributions to EA’s reputation, their value is being undervalued in the acquisition process.
As the acquisition progresses, stakeholders continue to watch closely, weighing the implications for EA’s future and its workforce.
