WoW: Burning Crusade ups Vivendi Games profit by 91.9% |
Ó
No one has ever doubted the massive impact the World of Warcraft expansion The Burning Crusade had on the gaming market.In terms of financial gain, Vivendi SA is a video game developer; formerly known as Vivendi Universal">Vivendi's Games Division has announced that the company had an EBITA (Earnings Before Interest, Tax, and Amortization) of 119 Million Euros for the first six months of 2007. This places them up by a whopping 91.9% from the previous year.
The company has attributed this gain to the very successful launch of WoW: The Burning Crusade and their increased subscription base of 9 million players worldwide.
The numbers they posted are also said to be affected by a non-recurring release due to Blizzard's profit sharing and talent retention plan as well as the other Sierra releases throughout the year.
A very good showing from the company. It makes one wonder on how much of an impact Wrath of the Lich King will make on Vivendi's earnings when it comes out.
