It’s no secret that Ubisoft has been struggling over the last few years, having failed to secure pop-cultural significance and losing 95 percent of its stock value. Now, it reported a staggering “record” of a loss as it ended fiscal year 2025-2026 with $1.5 billion in the red.
But it has plans to rebound and, hopefully, come back stronger than ever. That is according to Reuters, where it is reported that Ubisoft marked “a record annual operating loss” of 1.3 billion euros, or around $1.5 billion per today’s conversion rate. It also expects to burn through another 500 billion euros ($581 billion) and see a drop in sales of eight to nine percent. Yikes.
However, in an effort to win back some of its value and perhaps turn the ship around, Ubisoft is betting on releasing big games in its top franchises by the end of 2029. It expects its new releases to bring in a “positive free cash flow” and bigger profits in 2027-28, but is also betting on the growth of its live-service games.
