Pachter: Nintendo has over-performed in its first quarter

Wedbush Morgan’s Michael Pachter’s issued a note saying he believes Nintendo will show Q1 figures far in excess of estimates tomorrow.

“We expect the company to report results above our estimates for revenue of Â¥421 billion and EPS of Â¥571 due to very strong hardware sales and better than expected exchange rates, compared to consensus for revenue of Â¥400 billion and EPS of Â¥623,” said the analyst.

“We expect the company to raise its FY:09 guidance (currently for revenue of Â¥1,800 billion, operating income of Â¥530 billion, net income of Â¥325 billion, and EPS of Â¥2,541). This compares with consensus expectations for revenue of Â¥1,907 billion, operating income of Â¥598 billion, and EPS of Â¥2,938.”

WM’s currently listing the Wii-maker as “buy,” saying, “Nintendo’s recent financial performance has been spectacular and we expect this to continue in FY:09.”
