Zynga, which makes casual games such as "FarmVille" and "Words With Friends" has built most of its success through ties to Facebook Inc. (FB). Glu Mobile, on the other hand, emphasized that its success isn't dependant on Facebook. Glu creates games for smartphones and tablet devices, including "Blood & Glory," "Deer Hunter" and "Gun Bros."
Zynga shares were off 38% to $3.15 in recent trading and pressed shares of peers, including Glu Mobile, which was down as much as 20% ahead of its early report, before paring the decline to 2.6%.
Glu also said it has brought forward its earnings call and now plans to announce its results on Aug. 2. Social-networking giant Facebook will issue its first earnings report as a public company after the close.
"Glu's strong year-over-year growth was powered by our mobile-focus, lack of dependence on Facebook web users, and strength in male-oriented games," Chief Executive Niccolo de Masi said. He noted that this is the tenth quarter in which preliminary second-quarter results have exceeded the upper end of the company's guidance.
Stripping out changes in deferred revenue, Glu's second-quarter revenue was about $24.2 million, up 35% from the year-ago period and topping the company's previous guidance of $20.5 million to $21.5 million. Adjusted smartphone revenue was about $20.4 million, more than double the year-ago period.
The company raised its full-year adjusted revenue guidance to between $94.4 million and $96.4 million, up from $86.7 million to $91.7 million. It said adjusted smartphone revenue for the full year is expected to be between $81.9 million and $83.9 million, above previous guidance of $76.5 million to $81.5 million.

Bei genauerer Betrachtung könnte doch Amazon.com GLUU aufkaufen...
Für die Aktionäre wäre es nur das beste, vor allem weil Amazon mit Sicherheit ein fetten Aufschlag vom jetzigen Kurs drauf gibt.
Wenn Amazon Interesse hat dann seh ich 9$ pro Aktie... bzw. ist nur mein Wunschdenken

The company has thrashed estimates the last four quarters, easily beating consensus and broke even on its last quarterly report.
Glu Mobile is showing exponential revenue growth. It should turn in a 30% sales increase in FY2012 and analysts project more than 35% revenue growth in FY2013.
The mean analysts' price target by the 16 analysts that cover the stock is $7, implying roughly 40% upside from the current stock price. It also has almost $25mm in net cash on its balance sheet.
Given the company's small market capitalization ($300mm after subtracting cash), rapid revenue growth and expertise in mobile gaming; I think Glu Mobile has high probability of becoming acquired. The high call option premiums on the stock bear out that I am not the only investor that has that opinion. Facebook (FB), Zynga (ZNGA) and Electronic Arts are all trying to accelerate their presence in mobile gaming and would make logical acquirers.
