Investor Insights

This summary was created by AI, based on 4 opinions in the last 12 months.

Electronic Arts Inc., known for its interactive entertainment software, has encountered a tumultuous turn of events in the past month. Despite a strong long-term growth forecast of 5-6% and substantial free cash flow margins allowing for consistent share buybacks, the company recently faced a significant 16% drop following a pre-announcement of disappointing revenue figures, especially in its major sports titles. The rise in social media attention, which surged by 450%, signals potential positive momentum, although concerns regarding mobile game performance linger. Additionally, the integration of AI tools discussed during the recent investor day could indicate future growth opportunities in various fields, including healthcare and sports entertainment. Moreover, the price targets provided by analysts suggest varying confidence levels, ranging from $146.38 to $167.50.

TOP PICK

Likes the portfolio, though a bit weak in mobile. Discretionary spend on some titles has been a bit lower. Over the long term, can grow 5-6%. 30% free cashflow margins, enough to buy back 5-6% of shares every year. In-game transactions are 99% gross margins. Yield is 0.6%.

(Analysts’ price target is $146.38)

DON'T BUY

The 5th-biggest loser on the S&P in January

Was down 16% last month when they pre-announced shockingly light numbers, given weakness in their biggest titles (i.e. soccer game).

TOP PICK

This pick results from his looking at the application layer 12 months down the road. Model training algorithms are already being monetized in healthcare, education, and now sports/entertainment. Investor day last week saw a lot of AI tools. Yield is 0.5%.

12-month price target of $167.50. Buy 1/3 here around $141, $134, and $125.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We reiterate this top video game developer as a TOP PICK. With the 2022 World Cup starting, the release of FIFA 23 has been the largest launch in EA FIFA franchise history. The company is shifting more to a subscription revenue style that will add longevity. It has prudently been using some cash reserves to buy back shares. We recommend trailing up the stop-loss (from $100) to $114, looking to achieve $149 -- upside over 15%. Yield 0.5% (Analysts’ price target is $148.76)

TOP PICK

Growth in video games growing as more people use tools to communicate and socialize. Added revenue streams with in-game purchases and upgrades to tools/guns etc. Transition into metaverse with users playing video games. Does not believe company is a legacy player within sector.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 22/21, Down 12.6%) Revenues are still growing at a healthy pace. Good franchises. A major player. A core holding for him. More of a mature gaming company than a high growth stock. Good, solid, secular grower.

BUY

Allan Tong’s Discover Picks With Activision Blizzard reeling from a recent sexual harassment lawsuit based on several claims and a report slamming it for incompetence in designing a key video game last year, shareholders of video game stocks are looking kindly upon names like Electronic Arts. Two weeks ago, EA reported and beat its guidance in Q1 revenues, bookings and EPS. On top of that, management raised its full-year outlook. EA bought back $325 million of shares in that quarter, bringing the 12-month total to $976 million (all figures in USD). The company continues to swim in cash at $1.413 billion for the trailing 12 months. Read 3 Growing Tech Stocks for our full analysis.

WEAK BUY

The videogame space is exciting and it's changing rapidly. ATVI and Take Two are also good. These names can be lumpy because of release dates, but he prefers ATVI because of their titles like Call of Duty and for their eco-system. The next generation won't slow down on videogames (he has a 9-year-old who's good at games).

TOP PICK

A secular growth story. One of the best in the space with amazing franchises. They have Madden, Fifa, Star Wars among others. They use their massive cashflow to buy back shares and increase their offering. They initiated a dividend during covid, which is compelling. The dividend should grow at a high rate for a long time. (Analysts’ price target is $149.08)
