Results miss estimates due to loss of ‘WoW.’ The9 reported Q1 revenue of $62.4 million and GAAP loss per share of ($0.26) versus our estimates of $60.3 million and $0.29. It also reported Q2 revenue and GAAP loss per share of $42.2 million and ($0.46) versus our estimates of $71.5 million and $0.48. Results were much worse than expected because of the loss of World of Warcraft (WoW) in early June and associated depreciation and other expenses recognized due to the loss.
