Electronic Arts Earnings Call Transcript Summary of Q1 2026
EA reported a strong start to FY26, with Q1 net bookings of $1.3bn (up 3%) and revenue of $1.67bn (up 1%), coming in above the high end of guidance. Strength was driven by Global Football (FC franchises, especially FC Mobile), Apex Legends (improved retention and engagement), Star Wars catalog momentum, and Split Fiction. Full-game net bookings grew (up 27%) while live services were down slightly (‑1%); excluding Apex, live services grew low single digits. Gross margin remained high (83.3%) but OpEx rose ~9% as EA ramps people and marketing spend for near-term launches. Cash flow remains healthy (trailing 12-month operating cash flow ~$1.98bn; free cash flow $1.75bn) and the company returned $423m to shareholders in the quarter. Management reiterated the full‑year guidance and highlighted a loaded release slate and marketing ramp for the back half of FY26: Madden NFL 26 (Aug), EA SPORTS FC 26 (Sept 26), NHL 26, skate., and Battlefield 6 (major reveal imminent). Q2 guidance: net bookings $1.8–$1.9bn (down 13% to 9% year-over-year) with temporary headwinds from release phasing (notably deluxe edition recognition moving to Q3) and normalized demand curves for College Football after a strong reintroduction in 2025. The company emphasized a community-centric, cross-platform strategy (console, PC, mobile) and conviction in building ‘massive online communities’ to drive durable long-term growth.
