(Reuters) – Videogame publisher Activision Blizzard Inc missed market estimates for fourth-quarter adjusted sales on Thursday, as demand for its popular games such as “Call of Duty” and “Candy Crush” cooled down following the easing of pandemic-related curbs.
The company’s quarterly adjusted sales stood at $2.49 billion, compared with analysts’ estimates of $2.82 billion, according to Refinitiv IBES data.
