Impact of COVID-19 on our Business Operations and Outlook

We have focused on actions to support our people, our players, and our communities around the world affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Substantially all of our global workforce has shifted to work from home, and our primary focus continues to be the safety and well-being of our employees. Our IT, security and digital platform teams mobilized to add capacity to our remote working systems to scale to a fully distributed workforce.

Throughout this time, our studio teams have continued to deliver live service content while working from home. We launched our “Stay Home, Play Together” initiative to bring our players together when physical distancing is keeping us apart, and we’ve delivered dozens of Stay & Play programs to date, from special community livestreams and giveaways, to athletes and celebrities playing our games with fans. Our esports teams have conducted major online tournaments, and we’ve executed or plan to execute in the coming months more than 100 celebrity, athlete, community and charity online esports events.

With more people staying at home, we have experienced, and are continuing to experience, heightened levels of engagement and live services net bookings growth to date. The full extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to our business, operations and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors that we are not able to predict. The key risks to EA’s business are set forth under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements” in this release.

Business Outlook as of May 5, 2020

The following forward-looking statements reflect expectations as of May 5, 2020. Electronic Arts assumes no obligation to update these statements. Results may be materially different and are affected by many factors detailed in this release and in EA’s annual and quarterly SEC filings.

Fiscal Year 2021 Expectations – Ending March 31, 2021

Beginning in fiscal year 2021, we will make two changes to the way we report net bookings.

• First, we will report mobile bookings gross of platform fees, instead of net, to align with industry practice. This will result in a gross up in net bookings but no change to underlying profit.
• Second, we will update the presentation of net bookings by composition to focus on full game and live services sales & other, in line with the direction we continue to drive the business.

Our fiscal year 2021 guidance reflects both of these changes. Where relevant, financial data for fiscal 2020 is recast for comparability. Please refer to our FY21 Financial Reporting Update on our IR website for additional information.

Financial metrics:

• Net revenue is expected to be approximately $5.525 billion.
  • Change in deferred net revenue (online-enabled games) is expected to be approximately $25 million.
• Net income is expected to be approximately $978 million.
• Diluted earnings per share is expected to be approximately $3.35.
• Operating cash flow is expected to be approximately $1.575 billion.
• The Company estimates a share count of 292 million for purposes of calculating fiscal year 2021 diluted earnings per share.

Operational metric:

• Net bookings is expected to be approximately $5.550 billion. For comparison purposes, if fiscal 2020 were to be recast in the same way, we would have reported net bookings of $5.375 billion.

		Twelve Months Ended		Twelve Months Ending

Full game		1,783		1,700

In addition, the following outlook for GAAP-based financial data and a long-term tax rate of 18% are used internally by EA to adjust our GAAP expectations to assess EA’s operating results and plan for future periods:

First Quarter Fiscal Year 2021 Expectations – Ending June 30, 2020

Financial metrics:

• Net revenue is expected to be approximately $1.220 billion.
  • Change in deferred net revenue (online-enabled games) is expected to be approximately $(220) million.
• Net income is expected to be approximately $270 million.
• Diluted earnings per share is expected to be approximately $0.93.
• The Company estimates a share count of 291 million for purposes of calculating first quarter fiscal year 2021 diluted earnings per share.

Operational metric:

• Net bookings is expected to be approximately $1.000 billion. For comparison purposes, if the first fiscal quarter of 2020 were to be recast in the same way, we would have reported net bookings of $782 million.

In addition, the following outlook for GAAP-based financial data and a long-term tax rate of 18% are used internally by EA to adjust our GAAP expectations to assess EA’s operating results and plan for future periods:

Forward-Looking Statements

Some statements set forth in this release, including the information relating to EA’s fiscal 2021 expectations under the heading “Business Outlook as of May 5, 2020,” and other information regarding EA's fiscal 2021 expectations contain forward-looking statements that are subject to change. Statements including words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “plan,” “predict,” “seek,” “goal,” “will,” “may,” “likely,” “should,” “could” (and the negative of any of these terms), “future” and similar expressions also identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and reflect management’s current expectations. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed 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 Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic: Continued disruptions, postponements or cancellations of sports seasons and sporting events around which the Company seeks to launch games and provide live services; worsening economic conditions that negatively impact discretionary consumer spending and consumer demand; the closure of several of the Company’s key locations, including its global headquarters in Redwood City, California and key studios across North America, Europe and Asia which could impact (1) the Company’s ability to meet product and live service development schedules, (2) the effectiveness of the Company’s quality controls and game testing measures, and (3) the Company’s ability to conduct normal business operations; the inability of third-party developers with whom the Company has partnerships to meet product development schedules; sustained closures of the physical stores of key retail partners and deterioration in the financial condition of such retail partners; delays in the release date and the decreased unit volume of next-generation consoles from the Company’s platform partners; volatility in foreign currency exchange rates; and other risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic that may be unforeseen as of the date of this release.

• General Business Risks: Sales of the Company’s products and services; the Company’s ability to develop and support digital products and services, including managing online security and privacy; outages of our products, services and technological infrastructure; the Company’s ability to manage expenses; the competition in the interactive entertainment industry; governmental regulations; the effectiveness of the Company’s sales and marketing programs; the Company’s ability to realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions; the Company’s ability to predict consumer preferences among competing platforms; the Company’s ability to develop and implement new technology; changes in our tax rates or tax laws timely development and release of the Company’s products and services; and the consumer demand for, and the availability of an adequate supply of console hardware units.

In addition, other factors which could cause the Company’s results to differ materially from its expectations are described in Part II, Item 1A of Electronic Arts’ latest Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the heading “Risk Factors” as well as in other documents we have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019.

These forward-looking statements are current as of May 5, 2020. Electronic Arts assumes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statement for any reason, except as required by law. In addition, the preliminary 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 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020. Electronic Arts assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these estimates prior to filing its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.

1The change in deferred net revenue (online-enabled games) in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows does not necessarily equal the change in deferred net revenue (online-enabled games) in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations primarily due to the impact of unrecognized gains/losses on cash flow hedges.

2Mobile Platform Fees differ from Platform Fees due to fees on platforms other than mobile.
