Stifel Financial Corp.'s 2024 gaming report suggests a weaker lineup compared to 2023, with potential challenges in sales performance. The report forecasts a decline in consumer spending on new console and PC games, but identifies Take-Two Interactive (TTWO) and Electronic Arts (EA) as favorable prospects. Take-Two's GTA VI is expected to be a growth catalyst, while EA's live services contribute to net bookings. The report is neutral on CD PROJEKT (OTGLY) and Ubisoft (UBSFF), and sees opportunities in Corsair Gaming (CRSR), Turtle Beach (HEAR), and Roblox (RBLX) due to their market segments. The industry's software development costs and developer headcount show positive trends, but their impact may not be immediate.
