Ubisoft explores ‘strategic options’ as it reports lackluster September quarter results

Yves Guillemot, CEO of Ubisoft, said the French video game publisher is exploring its strategic options as it reported lackluster results for the first half of the year.

For the second fiscal quarter, Ubisoft report its net bookings were €352.3 million ($382 million), in line with revised guidance but lower than previous expectations. The company said lower-than-expected results for Star Wars: Outlaws were to blame. In the first half, net bookings were €642.3 million ($697 million), down 22% from a year ago. The net loss was $1.94 a diluted share.
