"Although the success of Space Marine 2 (SM2) means GAW is set to report a year of profit decline in FY26, we think the consistent underlying growth trajectory in the Core (10yr/5yr CAGR +17%/+16%) underpins a reacceleration to double-digit profit growth in FY27," the bank said.
Further out, Jefferies sees SM2 as an indicator of Warhammer’s "significant" mass-market potential and said it remains bullish about the opportunity presented by the Amazon TV series.
At 1115 GMT, the shares were up 5.6% at 16,267.66p.
