Electronic Arts (EA) is currently undergoing a significant leveraged buyout, which has led to the suspension of its regular earnings reports. As a result, the company will not be hosting earnings calls or providing insights into its quarterly performance at this time.
Shacknews confirmed with Monica Roldan, Program Manager and Executive Assistant at Electronic Arts (EA) Investor Relations, that the company will not be posting earnings results or holding conference calls due to the pending acquisition.
Investors and consumers had been eagerly awaiting the Q2 FY26 earnings results, but those updates have been put on hold. EA recently announced a $55 billion sale to a consortium including Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF), Silver Lake, and Affinity Partners. This leveraged buyout will be an all-cash transaction, offering stockholders a return of $210 per share.
However, the deal has faced criticism from worker unions and several U.S. Senators. Concerns have been raised about certain studios being labeled as “less profitable” despite their significant contributions to shaping EA’s reputation. These groups are pushing back against the acquisition, seeking to protect the interests of EA’s employees and its creative legacy.
