Needham & Company maintains a 'Strong Buy' on Glu Mobile (NASDAQ: GLUU) price target of $8.00.
Analyst, Sean McGowan, said, "GLUU reported 2Q earnings in line with preliminary results announced last week. (All figures are in non-GAAP unless otherwise noted) Revenues rose 35% YoY to $24.2mm and smartphone revenues grew 111% to $20.4mm. GM expanded 1040 bps to 91.4% of sales thanks to an increasing portion of internally developed IP. EPS were breakeven for 2Q with an EBITDA of $0.02 per share. GLUU announced the acquisition of GameSpy, a cross-platform technology company, which management expects will help future revenues. We have left our 2012 EPS estimate at breakeven, but we have raised our loss estimate for 3Q, offset by a higher profit estimate for 4Q." (FY13 EPS estimate cut from $0.16 to $0.12)
