Business Outlook
The following forward-looking statements reflect expectations as of May 3, 2005. Results may be materially different and are affected by many factors, such as changes in foreign exchange rates, the overall global economy, the popular appeal of EA’s products, competition in the industry, the ability of console manufacturers to meet demand, EA’s effective tax rate, development delays, EA’s ability to secure key licenses and other factors detailed in this release and in EA’s annual and quarterly SEC filings.

| · | Net revenue is expected to be between $3.4 and $3.5 billion – up 9 to 12 percent year-over-year. |

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Electronic Arts uses non-GAAP measures of operating income, net income and diluted earnings per share. These non-GAAP measures exclude the following items, including any related tax effect, from the Company’s statement of operations:
| · | Amortization of intangibles |
| · | Employee stock-based compensation |
| · | Restructuring and asset impairment charges |
| · | Acquired in-process technology |
| · | Certain non-recurring litigation expenses |
| · | Other-than-temporary impairment of investments in affiliates |
In addition, other significant unforeseeable and non-recurring items may occur from time to time that require an adjustment to these non-GAAP measures. For example, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, a $20 million non-recurring benefit to the Company’s income tax expense was included in the GAAP results but excluded from the non-GAAP results. When these items occur, the accounting impact will become a reconciling item between the GAAP results and these non-GAAP measures.
The Company believes that excluding these items is useful for illustrating and explaining operating results and comparisons to prior periods. Management considers these non-GAAP measures in its decision-making to facilitate more relevant operating comparisons.
A reconciliation of GAAP operating income to non-GAAP operating income; GAAP net income to non-GAAP net income; and GAAP diluted earnings per share to non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is included as part of the supplemental disclosures to this release.

Electronic Arts will host a conference call on May 3, 2005 at 2:00 pm PT (5:00 pm ET) to review the results for the Company’s fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2005.
