One of the last financial reports EA has to publish spotlights the company's poor financial performance in Q2.
Beyond the many implications Electronic Arts' acquisition has for the company and the gaming industry as a whole, it also means EA will no longer be required to publicly disclose its financial results. In one of its final reports before the deal takes effect, EA revealed weak financial performance for Q2 2026, the three-month period ending September 30, 2025, showing all key metrics going down.

Net bookings for the quarter totaled $1.818 billion, down 13% year-over-year, which the company attributes to the "extraordinary release" of College Football 25 in Q2 2025. Net revenue fell 9.2% from $2.025 billion last year to $1.839 billion, with approximately $1.221 billion (66%) coming from live services and $618 million from full game releases. The largest decline was in EA's net income, which dropped a whopping 53.4% to $137 million from $294 million in Q2 2025.
Despite all key figures declining, EA expressed optimism about the successful early access launch of Skate 4 and the record-breaking performance of Battlefield 6, which was released in Q3 and is expected to pump those numbers up in the next financial report – if it ever gets published, that is.
