Zynga's market cap is listed as $2.9 million. Presumably this is a typo; it's ~$2.9 billion.

Proof that market cap is just numbers on paper, considering all the lay-offs.
They have ~$1.1B in cash, so their true market cap is closer to $1.8B.
It sounds like you're trying to get to their enterprise value (simplified as market cap + debt - cash), but market cap is market cap (value of outstanding shares). They also own other large assets such as their building in SF.

With revenue of $231M last quarter their market cap looks pretty bad. But that's expected given their trajectory.

Right, I was pointing out that their huge cash pile is a large reason for that high market cap despite their decreasing revenues.
