Electronic Arts (EA) is currently undergoing a major acquisition, which has led to the suspension of its earnings announcements. Due to the leveraged buyout process, the company will not be hosting conference calls or releasing insights into its quarterly performance.
Shacknews confirmed with Monica Roldan, Program Manager and Executive Assistant at EA Investor Relations, that the company will not be posting earnings results or hosting conference calls amid the pending leveraged buyout. Investors and consumers who had been eagerly awaiting the Q2 FY26 earnings results will have to wait until further notice.
EA recently announced a $55 billion sale involving the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund (PIF), Silver Lake, and Affinity Partners. This leveraged buyout is structured as an all-cash transaction, set to return $210 per share to stockholders.
However, the deal has not come without controversy. Worker unions and some U.S. Senators have voiced concerns, particularly about the potential impact on EA’s studios. Critics argue that some studios may be labeled as “less profitable” despite their significant contributions in helping shape EA’s reputation over the years.
As the acquisition process continues, stakeholders will be watching closely to see how the transition affects EA’s operations and future performance.
