May 26, 2025 3:30 AM

02:10 PM EDT, 05/07/2025 (MT Newswires) -- CFRA, an independent research provider, has provided MT Newswires with the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:

We lift our 12-month target to $179 from $149 on 20x our CY 26 EPS view of $8.97. We increase our FY 26 (Mar.) EPS view to $8.31 from $7.82 and start FY 27's at $8.83. We maintain our Buy rating on EA as multiple catalysts approach, notably the Battlefield and Skate releases in FY 26, alongside continued strength in sports franchises. Q4 results showed strong momentum, with net bookings up 8% Y/Y, driven by Split Fiction's successful launch (4M units) and EA SPORTS performance. The shift toward live services (73% of bookings) provides recurring revenue stability. Despite temporary margin pressure in FY 26 from Battlefield marketing, we expect expansion in FY 27 as new titles contribute fully. EA's commitment to return 80%+ of FCF through FY 27 provides downside protection while investors await catalysts.
