Next earnings Jul 27, 2026 · consensus $0.83 EPS, $1.52B rev
Last earnings -0.1% on 2026-05-05
Fortress balance sheet and elite cash flow, but a 57x P/E on falling earnings and an eroding live-services engine — pay too much for too little growth.
P/E (price / FY diluted EPS) 57.6 · FY2026
Weak on both the fundamentals and the price — little to like at the current level.
EA is a high-quality, franchise-driven business that is no longer growing. FY2026 revenue of $7.53B rose just 0.9% YoY and has been stuck in a $6.99B–$7.56B band for five straight years; meanwhile profitability is deteriorating, with net income down 20.9% to $887M, operating income down 23.6% to $1.16B (opex +9% per the 10-K), and diluted EPS down 17.4% to $3.51. The market is paying a 57.6x trailing P/E and 6.7x sales — a growth multiple — for a company whose earnings are shrinking, which is the core of the bearish case.
The deeper concern is in the filing's own disclosures: the live-services engine that defines the bull thesis is contracting. Live services and other revenue has fallen three years running ($5,547M → $5,461M → $5,383M), and the crown jewel — extra content, a substantial portion of which is FC Ultimate Team — dropped from $4,365M to $4,091M (about -6%). When the highest-margin, most-defensible revenue stream is in decline, a premium multiple becomes very hard to justify, and the 24% drop in operating income shows the cost base isn't flexing to compensate.
