Ubisoft (ISIN FR0000054470) proposed closing its Finnish RedLynx studio and cutting 70 positions at Ubisoft Singapore on October 14, 2026. GamesIndustry.biz reported that the RedLynx proposal could affect up to 52 positions and remains subject to local negotiations. The restructuring puts studio capacity and the November reporting date at the center of the stock story.

Three restructuring milestones

On July 23, 2026, Ubisoft reported first-quarter fiscal 2026-27 revenue of EUR 268.2 million and net bookings of EUR 255.8 million, down 13.7 percent and 9.2 percent, respectively, according to Admirals. On September 30, 2026, Ubisoft reported 138,996,121 shares outstanding, according to TipRanks. On October 14, 2026, the RedLynx proposal and 70 Singapore positions extended that restructuring sequence.

What does November test?

The November figures will show whether Ubisoft can offset a weaker comparison base with new releases and tighter studio spending. The company has set a second-quarter net bookings objective of EUR 370 million, compared with EUR 490.8 million a year earlier, according to Admirals. The target is 24.64 percent below the prior-year figure, making execution and launch timing central metrics for the next update.

Barclays maintained a Hold rating and set a EUR 5.85 price target on October 8, 2026, according to Markets Insider. That target sits above the October 16 close, but the rating signals a measured view while Ubisoft works through its restructuring.

Next reporting date

Ubisoft's investor calendar lists November 19, 2026, for its half-year sales and earnings release, as shown on the company's Ubisoft investor page. The release will provide the next scheduled update on bookings, revenue and the cost-reduction program.

Stock awaits the next figures

The last Euronext Paris close was EUR 5.02 on October 16, 2026. The quoted 52-week range was EUR 3.70 to EUR 8.31 as of October 16, 2026, while market capitalization was EUR 697.5 million.
