Ubisoft announces (Adobe Acrobat format) third quarter 2014-15 sales, saying they achieved record sales of €809.7 million. This exceeds their projections, and they've increased their forecast for the year accordingly. Here are the highlights:

The third-quarter sales figure was higher than the target of approximately €730 million
announced when Ubisoft released its first-half 2014-15 results. This performance reflects:

  • A sharp increase in market share to 12.8% for 2014 (from 9.6% in 2013).
  • A very good performance delivered by the two Assassin’s Creed® opuses, Far Cry® 4 and The Crew®, with respective sales of 10 million, 7 million and 2 million units (sellin):
    • Far Cry 4 was voted “Best Shooter” at "The Games Awards 2014".
    • Assassin’s Creed Unity won the prize for best “Character Animation in a Video Game” at the Annie Awards.
    • To date, The Crew has recorded the best sales for the racing games released in late 2014.
  • A solid showing from Just Dance® with 4 million units sold (sell-in).
  • The continued success of Watch Dogs®, with 10 million units sold (sell-in) since its release. Watch Dogs is the biggest launch ever of a new IP in the EMEA region and the second largest launch in the United States.
  • A 157.0% surge in digital segment revenues to €138.0 million in the third quarter. For the first nine months of 2014-15, revenues generated by the digital segment came to €274.1 million, up 120.3% year on year, and representing 21.2% of Ubisoft’s total sales compared with 15.3% in the same period of 2013-14.
  • A robust 25.9% increase in back-catalog sales to €67.1 million in the third quarter. For the first nine months of the fiscal year, back-catalog sales rose 6.1% to €181.9 million.
