Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ:EA) announced today the completion of its acquisition of Playdemic, a Manchester-based mobile games studio best known for its hit title Golf Clash, for $1.4 billion in cash.
Playdemic marks the company’s third major acquisition in recent months, following Codemasters, acquired in an all-cash deal with an implied enterprise value of $1.2 billion, and Glu Mobile for $2.1 billion in enterprise value.
The acquisition of Playdemic is expected to yield considerable synergies for EA, including a more extensive mobile and sports-rich product portfolio, an increased gaming footprint within Europe, and enhanced live service capabilities.
Taking into account the above-mentioned benefits for the company, analysts at Wedbush raised their estimates for 2022 from $6,164 million to $6,264 million for net bookings and from $5.95 to $6.11 for EPS.
