Apple Inc&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) latest legal setback is a headwind, but one analyst says the impact on the iPhone maker&#8217;s stock price is materially lower than investors feared. 
What Happened: JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AAPL/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">an Overweight rating</a> on Apple, according to a Thursday research note.
The note comes one day after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit denied Apple&#8217;s emergency application to halt changes to its App Store that resulted from a legal spat with Epic Games.
Judge Gonzalez enforced Apple to allow link-out payments for applications at 0% commission versus 27% prior, Chatterjee noted. Implementing Gonzalez&#8217;s order will moderate Services revenue growth by up to 200 bps, which will result in an EPS headwind of 2%- 3%, as highlighted in his prior report.
However, Chatterjee said the actual impact will be driven by consumers&#8217; adoption rate for link-out payments.
As a reminder, before implementing the zero-commission link-outs, the analyst estimated that the US App Store would contribute $11.3 billion in fiscal 2025 (~3% of aggregate revenues).
In the future, investors will watch out for the appeal process against Gonzalez&#8217;s order, which may take two years or even more if the case reaches the Supreme Court. Other geographies will leverage the precedence from the current ruling to demand similar implementation of zero commission link-outs, Chatterjee said.

Why It Matters: Analyst Cory A Carpenter noted that the court denial is a big deal for app developers, many of whom have already updated their apps to accept credit card payments.
For apps that previously paid fees to Apple, the analyst estimated a potential annual margin uplift:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>2%-4% for Match Group, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MTCH#NASDAQ">MTCH</a>) and Bumble Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMBL#NASDAQ">BMBL</a>)</li>
<li>1%-2% for Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTWO#NASDAQ">TTWO</a>)</li>
<li>0.2%-0.5% for Electronic Arts Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EA#NASDAQ">EA</a>), and </li>
<li>2%-5% for PLAYSTUDIOS, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MYPS#NASDAQ">MYPS</a>).</li>
</ul>
Importantly, app store fee relief should represent upside potential to prior guidance, Carpenter said, as companies did not include any relief in their outlooks given the pending stay decision.
Roblox Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RBLX#NYSE">RBLX</a>) generates 30% of revenue from the app store, but the analyst says the margin uplift will depend on how much savings are passed on to developers.
Carpenter said some apps previously did not allow users to subscribe on the app store due to Apple fees, and these companies should see a user acquisition benefit. The companies included Spotify Technology (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>), Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Kindle, and Epic Games.
Spotify said in an Amicus briefing on May 19 that its iOS app update had significantly increased iOS users upgrading to a Premium subscription analyst.
Carpenter expects Applovin Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APP#NASDAQ">APP</a>) to be an indirect beneficiary as developers re allocate app store fees to user acquisition.
Price Action: Apple stock is up 0.29% to $203.40 at last check Thursday.

Apple Faces Modest Earnings Hit After Court Ruling But Analyst Expects Match, Bumble, Spotify To Gain

Nearly 80% of S&amp;P 500 companies exceeded earnings forecasts in the first quarter of 2025, helping the index post a 13.3% profit surge — its second straight quarter <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">of double-digit growth.</a>
According to the latest Earnings Insight report from FactSet, authored by vice president and senior earnings analyst John Butters, only 18% fell short of analyst forecasts.
About 98% of S&amp;P 500 companies now have reported first-quarter results. And up to 78% beat earnings-per-share (EPS) expectations—a figure that outpaces both the 5-year average of 77% and the 10-year average of 75%. 
&#8220;In aggregate, companies are reporting earnings that are 8.2% above expectations. This surprise percentage is above the 1-year average (+6.1%), below the 5-year average (+8.8%), and above the 10-year average (+6.9%),&#8221; Butters wrote. 
The "Magnificent Seven" — Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Microsoft Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NYSE">MSFT</a>), Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), and Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) — outperformed the broader index.
Six of the seven companies beat EPS estimates (86%), with an average earnings surprise of 14.9%, nearly twice the S&amp;P 500 average.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Which Sectors Led The Upside?</h3>
Health Care topped the leaderboard with 92% of its constituents beating estimates, followed by Communication Services (87%) and Information Technology (86%). 
At the opposite end, Utilities and Energy sectors posted the weakest beat rates at 61% and 64%, respectively.
Communication Services delivered the strongest upside surprises, boasting an average earnings surprise of +23.8%. 
Meta Platforms Inc. beat by over $1 per share ($6.43 vs. $5.23), while Alphabet Inc. posted EPS of $2.81 against estimates of $2.02. 
Other strong performers included Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EA#NASDAQ">EA</a>), Interpublic Group of Companies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IPG#NYSE">IPG</a>), News Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NWSA#NASDAQ">NWSA</a>), and Walt Disney Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>).
Consumer Discretionary followed with a 9.4% surprise rate. Booking Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BKNG#NASDAQ">BKNG</a>) surged past expectations with $24.81 in EPS vs. $17.37 forecast, while NIKE Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) posted $0.54 vs. $0.30.
Health Care delivered an 8.6% surprise, with Pfizer Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PFE#NYSE">PFE</a>) earning $0.92 per share vs. $0.67 estimate, and CVS Health Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVS#NYSE">CVS</a>) reporting $2.25 vs. $1.70. The sector also had the highest beat rate, with 92% of companies exceeding EPS forecasts.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Response: Positive Earnings Are Paying Off</h3>
Investors rewarded strong results. Companies that beat expectations saw their stock prices rise by an average of 1.9% from two days before to two days after earnings — the highest average gain since the third quarter of 2022. 
Conversely, companies that missed expectations saw a more muted decline of -1.9%, smaller than the 5-year average drop of -2.3%.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Valuations Are Getting Stretched</h3>
The forward 12-month price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio for the S&amp;P 500 rose to 21.3, above the 5-year average of 19.9 and the 10-year average of 18.4. 
That increase reflects a 5.4% rise in the index since March 31, while forward EPS estimates have slipped less than 0.1%.
By sector, Consumer Discretionary (28.1) and Information Technology (27.2) have the richest valuations, while Energy (14.6) trades at the lowest. 
The trailing 12-month P/E ratio also moved higher to 25.9, above the historical 5- and 10-year norms.

Goldman Sachs Maintains Neutral on Electronic Arts, Raises Price Target to $155

Electronic Arts Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EA#NASDAQ">EA</a>) released its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming/25/05/45238060/electronic-arts-stock-climbs-after-better-than-expected-q4-report" rel="noreferrer noopener">fourth-quarter results</a> after Tuesday&#8217;s closing bell.&nbsp;
Wall Street analysts rerated the stock after the report.
Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter reiterated Electronic Arts with an Outperform and raised the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/EA/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target from&nbsp;$179&nbsp;to&nbsp;$210</a>.
JP Morgan analyst Cory A Carpenter maintained Electronic Arts with a Neutral and raised the price target from&nbsp;$135&nbsp;to&nbsp;$160.

Wedbush: Electronic Arts reported net bookings of $1.799 billion compared with Pachter&#8217;s estimate of $1.594 billion, consensus of $1.550 billion, and guidance of $1.444 billion-1.594 billion. Revenues exceeded expectations, driven by a rebound in EA SPORTS FC, the successful launch of Split Fiction, double-digit net bookings growth in The Sims, and continued strength in American Football titles. 
Adjusted EPS was $1.58, compared with Pachter&#8217;s estimate of $1.21, consensus of $1.10, and guidance of $0.76– 1.17. Fiscal 2026 guidance for net bookings of $7.600 billion-8.000 billion and adjusted EPS of $7.60-8.40, compared with Pachter&#8217;s prior estimates of $7.830 billion and $8.38 and previous consensus of $7.900 billion and $6.93. 
First-quarter 2026 guidance is for net bookings of $1.175 billion-1.275 billion and EPS of $(0.05)-0.15, compared with Pachter&#8217;s prior estimates of $1.250 billion and $0.51, and prior consensus of $1.264 billion and $0.23. First-quarter guidance assumes seasonally lower revenue, a five-point drag from Apex Legends, and a two-point drag from the catalog. Excluding Apex Legends, EA expects low single-digit live services growth in the period.
Pachter noted that the launch of Battlefwill likely result in sales of 7 million-15 million units for the year and expects Skate to add 3 million-5 million units more. At the low end, these titles should contribute $500 million of year-over-year growth; at the high end, they should contribute $1 billion. 
Perhaps more importantly, Electronic Arts&#8217; guidance contemplates that retail game prices will remain $70 for Xbox Series and PS5 releases. Electronic Arts noted it is highly likely that the company can raise prices for ALL of its new releases by $10 at retail, allowing it to capture $350 million of bookings growth in fiscal 2026 with only modest performance from its latest titles.
Pachter projected first-quarter revenue of $1.28 billion and EPS of $0.15.
JP Morgan: Three months ago, investors debated if the FC slowdown was temporary or structural, Dragon Age disappointed, and a Battlefield release in fiscal 2026 was uncertain due to GTA VI. A lot has changed in three months. FC proved to be a temporary &#8220;ebb,&#8221; the delay of GTA VI opened a window for Battlefield to launch in fiscal 2026, and Split Fiction nearly doubled expectations, according to Carpenter.
Carpenter listed his takeaways from management calls. The outlook does not include game price increases, but the analyst would not interpret them as off the table. Battlefield unit assumptions are prudent, given that the game has been out of the market for about four years. 
The analyst noted Electronic Arts could achieve the low end of its fiscal 2027 margin framework a year early in a Battlefield &#8220;blue sky&#8221; scenario. The fiscal first-quarter outlook reflects FC trends consistent with recent weeks, which could prove conservative given the significant upcoming events in the quarter.
Battlefield will have live services tied to it, but management has yet to disclose the timing. Carpenter noted the outlook reflects Battlefield live services assumptions that are even more conservative than unit assumptions.
Apex 2.0 release timing will likely be further out so as not to conflict with Battlefield.
Catalog is a bigger headwind than Apex for the fiscal year, but Apex is a bigger headwind in the fiscal first quarter.
Carpenter did not anticipate any material change to the dividend.
He projected first-quarter revenue of $1.6 billion and adjusted EPS of $0.04.
Price Action: EA stock is up 1% at $156.08 at last check Wednesday.
