Summary
MARK PINCUS HAS CONVERTED HIS FOUNDER SUPER-VOTING STOCKS TO ORDINARY STOCKS. HIS VOTING POWER IS NOW REDUCED FROM 70% TO 10%.
It is a generous gesture from Mr. Pincus. By giving up his super-voting/veto privileges, ZYNGA’S LONG-TERM STRATEGY IS NOW MORE FLEXIBLE.
PINCUS’ SACRIFICE MEANS ZYNGA IS NOW OPEN TO TAKEOVER BIDS. ZYNGA IS AN ATTRACTIVE M&A TARGET. IT IS PROFITABLE AND HAS NO DEBT with $740 million in cash.

I hope Zynga will consider porting some of its Android/iOS games to Facebook’s Instant Games platform. Facebook has enabled in-app purchases on its Instant Games Platform.
I am still long Zynga (ZNGA). This company posted excellent numbers on its Q1 2018 earnings report. In spite of not having a new hit game, Zynga still posted Q1 revenue of $208.2 million, up 7% year over year [Y/Y]. Mobile revenue is $182.6 million, up 13% Y/Y. Net income was $5.6 million - a big turnaround from Q1 2017’s net loss of $9.5 million. The all-important metric pertaining to the number of mobile average daily active users also increased 24% Y/Y to 23 million.
