Ubisoft's latest financials revealed; Splinter Cell Conviction delayed
We mentioned earlier today that this is the season for earnings to be revealed by publicly traded companies including game publishers. Today Ubisoft released their latest numbers for their first fiscal quarter which ended June 30. Revenues were €169 million for the time period, up from €134 million for the same period a year ago and exceeding Ubisoft's previous expectations. The sales figures were helped in part by the release of the PC game ports of Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and Assassin's Creed.
Sales for the current quarter are expected to come in at €169 million, a 25 percent increase from the same period the year before as expectations are high for the release of the WWII shooter Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway. One piece of expected bad news was that the long-delayed Splinter Cell Conviction has now been pushed into Ubisoft's 2009-2010 fiscal year which begins on April 1, 2009.
