THQ (NASDAQ: THQI), a developer and publisher of interactive entertainment software, still has a lot to prove, according to analysts at MKM Partners.
THQ recently reported better than expected 1QFY12 results and showed off a scaled down cost structure. However, analysts say they continue to view THQ as a company with too few “must have” franchises.
"[This] provides limited visibility into when (or if) THQ can achieve meaningful profits or generate positive FCF," said Eric Handler, Media, Entertainment, and Video Game Analyst at MKM.
"As the firm progresses with its (yet another) new business strategy focused on core game franchises and digital initiatives we prefer to remain on the sidelines as THQ’s execution has been poor this console cycle," added Handler.
MKM has a Neutral rating on THQ Inc. (NASDAQ: THQI). Today they cut their price target on the stock to $6.00 (from $7.50)
