Here’s How Much of EA Saudi Arabia Will Reportedly Own After the Acquisition

Following a report in the Wall Street Journal, EA officially announced it was being bought for $55 billion in what was then the biggest leveraged buyout ever. If the deal goes through as expected, EA will no longer be publicly traded on the stock market. Instead, a small number of investors—including the Public Investment Fund (PIF) and private equity firms Silver Lake and Affinity Partners—will fully own the company. However, recent indications suggest one of these three groups will end up with a significantly larger share than the others.
