SunTrust analyst Matthew Thornton kept his Buy rating and $107 price target on Electronic Arts, saying his latest survey data contained positive findings for Apex Legends in relation to user spending intentions and spending per player. The analyst also maintains that the company's initial FY20 guidance will be "more conservative", even though his price target is "very comfortable" as it implies a forward earnings multiple of 21.5-times - in-line with the 5-year average for the stock. Thornton further points to Electronic Arts' next release of Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order on April 13th and the next SuperData Apex estimate on April 20th as potential catalysts.
