EA REPORTS SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 2007 RESULTS

Q2 Net Revenue a Record $784 Million Driven by EA SPORTS Titles

Need for Speed Carbon Debuts on 10 Platforms

 

REDWOOD CITY, CA – November 2, 2006 – Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: ERTS) today announced preliminary financial results for its fiscal second quarter ended September 30, 2006.

 

Fiscal Second Quarter Results

 

Net revenue for the second quarter was $784 million, up 16 percent as compared with $675 million for the prior year. Sales were driven primarily by Madden NFL 07, NCAA® Football 07, FIFA 07, NBA Live 07 and catalog titles.

 

Gross profit for the quarter was $445 million, up 14 percent year-over-year. Net income for the quarter was $22 million as compared with $51 million for the prior year. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R “Share-Based Payment” at the beginning of its fiscal year resulting in pre-tax stock-based compensation charges of $33 million in the second quarter. Diluted earnings per share were $0.07 as compared with $0.16 for the prior year.

 

Non-GAAP net income was $65 million as compared with $46 million a year ago – an increase of 41 percent year-over-year. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share were $0.21 as compared with $0.15 for the prior year. (Please see Non-GAAP Financial Measures and reconciliation information included in this release.)

 

Trailing twelve month operating cash flow was $571 million as compared with $592 million a year ago. The Company ended the quarter with cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $2.4 billion.

 

“We are well prepared for the holidays on all platforms, including the Xbox 360, PLAYSTATION 3 and the Nintendo Wii,” said Larry Probst, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “In the quarter, we plan to release eight titles across multiple platforms and currently have more than 30 next-generation games in development.”

 

“This was a strong quarter for EA,” said Warren Jenson, Chief Financial and Administrative Officer. “While our industry remains in the midst of transition the landscape looks strong enough that we are able to increase our guidance range for the year.”

 

Highlights (comparisons are to the quarter ended September 30, 2005)

 

    Net revenue: North America – up 16 percent to a Q2 record $512 million; Europe – up 28 percent to a Q2 record $245 million; Asia – down 34 percent to $27 million. Movements in foreign currency rates positively impacted net revenue by $10 million, or one percent.

 

    Xbox 360™ revenue was $166 million – offsetting a 25 percent decline in current-generation console revenue.

 

    Year-to-date, EA is the number one publisher on the Xbox 360 in both North America and Europe.

 

1


    Madden NFL 07 had a record launch with five million copies sold in just five weeks. Year-to-date, Madden NFL 07 is the industry’s number one title in North America.

 

    NCAA Football 07 set a record – selling over 2 million copies in the quarter.

 

    NHL® 07 has gone platinum since launch.

 

    FIFA 07 had a strong international launch – selling nearly two million copies in just one week.

 

    EA has partnered with Apple® to bring its games to the iPod®.

 

    EA has joined with Massive and IGA to introduce dynamic in-game advertising to several titles.

 

    EA purchased Phenomic Games, a talented European developer of real time strategy games.

 

    EA closed the acquisition of Mythic Entertainment, the critically acclaimed developer of massively multiplayer online games.

 

Business Outlook

 

The following forward-looking statements, as well as those made above, reflect expectations as of November 2, 2006. Results may be materially different and are affected by many factors, such as: the timely release of next-generation hardware and the ability of console manufacturers to produce an adequate supply of consoles to meet demand; development delays on EA’s products; changes in foreign exchange rates; the overall global economy; the popular appeal of EA’s products; competition in the industry; EA’s effective tax rate and other factors detailed in this release and in EA’s annual and quarterly SEC filings.

 

Fiscal Third Quarter Expectations – Ending December 31, 2006

 

    Net revenue is expected to be between $1.2 and $1.3 billion.

 

    GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be between $0.33 and $0.43.

Fiscal Year Expectations – Ending March 31, 2007

 

    Net revenue is expected to be between $2.950 and $3.125 billion – up from previous expectations of $2.8 to 3.0 billion

 

    GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be breakeven to $0.15 – versus previous expectations of ($0.30) to breakeven.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

To supplement the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, Electronic Arts uses certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures used by Electronic Arts include non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) and historical and estimated non-GAAP diluted earnings (loss) per share. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude the following items from the Company’s statement of operations:

 

    Acquired in-process technology

 

    Amortization of intangibles

 

    Certain litigation expense

 

    Restructuring charges

 

    Stock-based compensation

 

    Income tax adjustments (consisting of the income tax effect of the items listed above and certain one-time income tax adjustments)

 

In addition, Electronic Arts may consider whether other significant non-recurring items that arise in the future should also be excluded in calculating the non-GAAP financial measures it uses.

 

Electronic Arts believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the Company’s core business, operating results or future outlook. Electronic Arts’ management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company’s operating results both as a consolidated entity and at the business unit level, as well as when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate comparisons of the Company’s performance to prior periods.

 

3


In addition to the reasons stated above, which are generally applicable to each of the items Electronic Arts excludes from its non-GAAP financial measures, the Company believes it is appropriate to exclude certain items for the following reasons:

 

Amortization of Intangibles. When analyzing the operating performance of an acquired entity, Electronic Arts’ management focuses on the total return provided by the investment (i.e., operating profit generated from the acquired entity as compared to the purchase price paid) without taking into consideration any allocations made for accounting purposes. Because the purchase price for an acquisition necessarily reflects the accounting value assigned to intangible assets (including acquired in-process technology and goodwill), when analyzing the operating performance of an acquisition in subsequent periods, the Company’s management excludes the GAAP impact of acquired intangible assets to its financial results. Electronic Arts believes that such an approach is useful in understanding the long-term return provided by an acquisition and that investors benefit from a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the accounting expense associated with acquired intangible assets.

 

In addition, in accordance with GAAP, Electronic Arts generally recognizes expenses for internally-developed intangible assets as they are incurred, notwithstanding the potential future benefit such assets may provide. Unlike internally-developed intangible assets, however, and also in accordance with GAAP, the Company generally capitalizes the cost of acquired intangible assets and recognizes that cost as an expense over the useful lives of the assets acquired (other than goodwill, which is not amortized, and acquired in-process technology, which is expensed immediately, as required under GAAP). As a result of their GAAP treatment, there is an inherent lack of comparability between the financial performance of internally-developed intangible assets and acquired intangible assets. Accordingly, Electronic Arts believes it is useful to provide, as a supplement to its GAAP operating results, a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the amortization of acquired intangibles.

 

Stock-Based Compensation. Electronic Arts adopted SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” beginning in its fiscal year 2007. When evaluating the performance of its individual business units, the Company does not consider stock-based compensation charges. Likewise, the Company’s management teams exclude stock-based compensation expense from their short and long-term operating plans. In contrast, the Company’s management teams are held accountable for cash-based compensation and such amounts are included in their operating plans. Further, when considering the impact of equity award grants, Electronic Arts places a greater emphasis on overall shareholder dilution rather than the accounting charges associated with such grants.

 

Video game platforms have historically had a life cycle of four to six years, which causes the video game software market to be cyclical. The Company’s management analyzes its business and operating performance in the context of these business cycles, comparing Electronic Arts’ performance at similar stages of different cycles. For comparability purposes, Electronic Arts believes it is useful to provide a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes stock-based compensation in order to better understand the long-term performance of its core business. In addition, given the Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” beginning with its fiscal year ending March 31, 2007, Electronic Arts believes that a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes stock-based compensation will facilitate the comparison of its year-over-year results.

 

Restructuring Charges. Although Electronic Arts has engaged in various restructuring activities over the past several years, each has been a discrete, extraordinary event based on a unique

 

4


set of business objectives. Each of these restructurings has been unlike its predecessors in terms of its operational implementation, business impact and scope. The Company does not engage in restructuring activities on a regular basis or in the ordinary course of business. As such, the Company believes it is appropriate to exclude restructuring charges from its non-GAAP financial measures.

 

In the financial tables below, Electronic Arts has provided a reconciliation of the most comparable GAAP financial measure to each of the historical non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Some statements set forth in this release, including the estimates under the heading “Business Outlook,” contain forward-looking statements that are subject to change. Statements including words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate” or “expect” and statements in the future tense are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events or actual future results to differ materially from the expectations set forth in the forward-looking statements. Some of the factors which could cause the Company’s results to differ materially from its expectations include the following: the timely release of next-generation hardware; the availability of an adequate supply of current-generation and next-generation hardware units (including the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system, the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system and the Wii™); the Company’s ability to predict consumer preferences among competing hardware platforms; consumer spending trends; the seasonal and cyclical nature of the interactive game segment; timely development and release of Electronic Arts’ products; competition in the interactive entertainment industry; the Company’s ability to manage expenses during fiscal year 2007; the Company’s ability to attract and retain key personnel; changes in the Company’s effective tax rates; adoption of new accounting regulations and standards; potential regulation of the Company’s products in key territories; developments in the law regarding protection of the Company’s products; fluctuations in foreign exchange rates; the Company’s ability to secure licenses to valuable entertainment properties on favorable terms; and other factors described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2006 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. These forward-looking statements speak only as of November 2, 2006. Electronic Arts assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements, including those made under the “Business Outlook” heading. In addition, the financial results set forth in this release are estimates based on information currently available to Electronic Arts. While Electronic Arts believes these estimates are meaningful, they could differ from the actual amounts that Electronic Arts ultimately reports in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2006. Electronic Arts assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these estimates prior to filing its Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2006.
