2014 was a year of progress for Zynga — we came together as one team and applied more discipline and rigor to our business. In the fourth quarter, we increased mobile bookings to 60% of our total bookings mix, expanded our mobile audience with monthly mobile consumers up 87% year over year, and grew our core franchise bookings by 35% year over year

He commented on the outlook for 2015:

In 2015, we will focus on three priorities: driving mobile growth, launching more products in more evergreen categories and building on our social legacy. We will deliver a 100 percent mobile-first new product slate featuring new games, with a goal of ending 2015 with more than 75% of our fourth quarter bookings coming from mobile. I am excited by the boldness of our 2015 product aspirations — this year we expect to launch between 6 to 10 new games in important categories like Match 3 and Action Strategy. We are building a high performing culture which takes time and while we would like to go faster, we are being methodical and purposeful about our decisions. We have a healthy balance sheet with $1.1 billion in cash and marketable securities which gives us staying power and the ability to invest in our future growth.
