In other recent news, Electronic Arts has been the focus of several analyst reviews and financial adjustments. TD Cowen has revised its price target for Electronic Arts to $160, down from $183, while maintaining a Buy rating. This follows the company’s third-quarter results, which met expectations, though the firm has lowered its fiscal year 2025 bookings estimate due to a cautious outlook. UBS has also cut its price target for Electronic Arts to $138 from $160, maintaining a Neutral rating, after the company pre-announced reduced fiscal 2025 guidance and third-quarter bookings. The decline was attributed to weaker performances in global football and Dragon Age, though a return to growth is anticipated in fiscal 2026 with new titles.

Citi reiterated a Neutral rating with a $139 target, noting potential growth in fiscal 2026 driven by future releases of FC and Battlefield. Meanwhile, DA Davidson maintained a Neutral stance with a $140 target, citing a mixed outlook with increased engagement in "FIFA 25" but challenges in "Apex Legends." Analysts have pointed to the importance of upcoming releases and player engagement for Electronic Arts’ future performance. The various assessments reflect a cautious yet optimistic view of the company’s long-term prospects, considering both current challenges and potential future growth.
