PLAYSTUDIOS tumbles 22% as Q4 earnings miss, guidance disappoints

LAS VEGAS - PLAYSTUDIOS, Inc. (NASDAQ:MYPS) shares plummeted 22% after the mobile game developer reported fourth-quarter earnings that fell short of analyst expectations and provided weaker-than-anticipated guidance for fiscal year 2025.

The company posted a Q4 net loss of $0.18 per share, significantly wider than the $0.09 loss per share analysts had forecast. Revenue for the quarter came in at $67.8 million, slightly below the consensus estimate of $67.83 million and down 12% YoY from $77.1 million.

For the full fiscal year 2025, PLAYSTUDIOS projects revenue between $250 million and $270 million, below Wall Street’s expectations of $269.8 million. The midpoint of this guidance range suggests a 10% YoY decline from 2024 revenue of $289.4 million.

"2024 closed with revenue and Consolidated AEBITDA in line with guidance despite continued industry pressures," said Andrew Pascal, Chairman and CEO of PLAYSTUDIOS. "We’re entering 2025 with a more structured, cost-efficient business model geared towards growth and shareholder returns."

The company reported Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $12.5 million for Q4, down from $14.7 million in the same period last year. PLAYSTUDIOS ended the quarter with $109.2 million in cash and cash equivalents on its balance sheet.

Management highlighted progress on new initiatives, including sweepstakes promotions and a new Tetris title, which they expect to contribute to results in 2025. The company also completed a cost reduction program, anticipating $25-30 million in annual savings.
