Electronic Arts (EA) is going private in a $55 billion deal that values the company at a 35% premium to its pre-announcement price. Martin Yang breaks down the massive LBO, which he considers a fair and compelling offer for shareholders. Martin believes the deal is a one-off opportunity driven by EA's strong and stable free cash flow generation, growth trajectory, and solid domination in sports games. Martin thinks going private could benefit EA by allowing it to stay on a longer-term investment cycle for new content and reducing pressure to deliver short-term growth.
