The revenue effect on EPS is entirely dependent, of course, on margins. A million extra from Worms 2 will move the stock a whole lot less than a million extra from M-1. As an average 2 cents is probably safe. With Ultimate Civ, M-1, and Falcon out MPRS can be profitable in Fiscal Q2 (assuming that is when all three are out) on 22-23 million in revenue assuming those three titles combine for 500K in sales. (The 15 million in margin from 500K in sales from those games at projected retail prices of $50 would cover the run rate of 14 to 15 million.) If MPRS can have several quarters where they average 500K in sales of titles they produce then they can make a small net profit on the margins they receive from Worms 2, distribution in Europe, URP and the like. The question is, will MPRS get out some other titles to back the three above mentioned high margin games?
