Electronic Arts filed its 10-Q, the quarterly report a US-listed company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission, on Aug 1, 2025, for the quarter that ended Jun 30, 2025. Net revenue, the sales its accounts recognise in the period, was $1.67 billion, up 0.7% from $1.66 billion in the same quarter a year earlier. Operating income was $271 million, down 25.5% from $364 million. Net income was $201 million, down 28.2% from $280 million.

EA's management said net revenue rose by $11 million: a $129 million increase, mainly from Split Fiction and its American football games, driven by EA SPORTS College Football 25, partly offset by a $118 million decrease, mainly lower sales of extra content for Apex Legends and from sunset mobile titles. Full-game net revenue was $289 million, up 16%, which EA put mainly on Split Fiction. Live services and other net revenue was $1.382 billion, down 2%; EA put the fall mainly on lower Apex Legends extra-content sales, partly offset by Ultimate Team extra content in its American football games. EA said its live services included extra content, subscription offerings and other revenue generated in addition to the sale of its full games.15^,16^,17^,18^,19^,20

EA's net bookings, which it defined as net revenue plus the change in deferred net revenue for online-enabled games, were $1.298 billion, against $1.262 billion a year earlier. EA put the $36 million, or 3%, rise mainly on Split Fiction and its global football games, partly offset by lower extra-content sales for Apex Legends. EA's earnings release of Jul 29, 2025 said the quarter's net bookings exceeded the high end of its guidance range of $1.275 billion.21^,22^,23^,24^,25

Operating expenses were $1.121 billion, up 9% from a year earlier. Research and development expenses rose $77 million, or 12%, which EA put mainly on a $46 million increase in personnel-related expenses as part of its investment in its studios. In the quarter EA returned $423 million to stockholders, repurchasing 3.0 million shares for about $375 million and paying $48 million through its quarterly dividend. The Jul 29 release kept EA's outlook for fiscal year 2026 unchanged, with net bookings of about $7.6 billion to $8.0 billion, and put net bookings for the second fiscal quarter, which ended Sep 30, 2025, at about $1.8 billion to $1.9 billion.26^,27^,28^,24^,29^,30^,31

We hold the text of the 10-Q's management discussion, not its notes or exhibits, so this article tells what EA said only from that discussion and its Jul 29 earnings release. Our records keep one value for each period, so they cannot tell whether the year-earlier figures in this 10-Q were restated.32^,24^,33
