EA reported its final numbers as a public company in the quarter ended June 30, 2026, with net revenue rising 19 percent to $1.98 billion and operating income up 89 percent to $513 million. Live service revenue, the primary driver, climbed 7 percent year-over-year to $1.47 billion on the strength of extra content sales in Battlefield 6 and EA Sports FC. Net bookings reached $1.39 billion, up 4 percent, fueled by EA Sports FC, Apex Legends, and the Madden and College Football titles.

The $55 billion take-private deal led by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, alongside Silver Lake and Affinity Partners, is set to close today after all regulatory approvals cleared, ending EA’s 35-year run on public markets. Full-game revenue totaled $514 million, with 85 percent of it coming from digital channels, a trend the company says supports margin expansion. CEO Andrew Wilson’s compensation for fiscal 2026 reached $38.6 million, including an $8 million raise tied to the prior year’s performance.

Layoffs continued across studios including Full Circle and the Battlefield division despite the revenue uptick, while digital sales now account for roughly three-quarters of units sold in recent fiscal years. The filing notes the shift toward online-enabled content as the structural reality for the newly private entity.
