Ubisoft Shares Drop!

Hi Brag.... I think you may have the wrong end of the stick here. The previous figures are accurate and the 2010 figure is estimated but if you look at the base figure, the share price is actually 10.90 euros. The figures you are looking at are the profit per share rather than the actual price........Easy mistake to make dude

It is also worth noting that the 2010 estimate is just that, an estimate and will no doubt have taken into account the current economic downturn

Patience, Q4 Sales report can be expected by the end of this month, the 2009/10 sales report by May 14th if I recall correctly from the Ubisoft Coporate Investors Center (a site that is better maintained and structured than anything else they have

...).

After the Q4 report, the race is on... And will see how investors like this. But keep in mind that in their latest sales report 2008/9 the PC Market was but some 8% of total revenue. So even if the DRM cut away the whole PC customers, they could just withdraw from that segment (for any possible reason, probably piracy will be pulled out of the coffin again) and refocus business on consoles. But it is still fun to watch Ubisoft in its experiment to gather RL market data...

NOTE TO TROLLS: Note this thread. Note it well! Here we have disagreement among individuals that didn't result in name-calling and hostility. Getting to be an unusual event around here...unfortunately !

Where is the disagreement friend??

mcarlsonus · 04-15-10, 06:23 PM

share price, interpretation of same

Less a disagreement than a misunderstanding that was discussed and made to be an understanding. This thread feels like adults communicating and understanding each other. It's refreshing in the midst of what has become a lot of hostile attitudes as of late.
I, for one, appreciate civil discourse as found here.
Well played, good sirs.

ubisoft will remain successful just from console sales even if thier pc markets fall off. if they give up on the pc market it will be the loss of more pc titles for us pc gamers, and thats a sad thing.

Irony? Is that you?

Net earnings halved isn't a good sign. Share price drop will likely follow soon before or after the official records are announced.

29/4 if I remember correctly. Ubisoft will probably have an hard time explaining why other operators in the videogaming industry actualkly inreased their margins in 2009, despite the worldwide crisis, and they didn't. Personally, I think DRM is only the proverbial drop that made water spill out of the vase. Ubisoft software quality went down the drain in past years.

Who cares? If they go under, and that's a very, very big if, will we really miss them?

After all the rage, and angst displayed on here after the release of SH5, I cannot see too many being overly concerned as to the fate of Ubisoft. After all, this may well be the last game in the series in any case, especially when you consider the reception it received.
