TAKE-TWO INTERACTIVE SOFTWRE

Take-Two Interactive

Take-Two is one of the largest global developers and publishers of video games, with labels including Rockstar, 2K, and Zynga. Grand Theft Auto is the firm's biggest franchise, accounting for about 30% of total sales for the past decade. NBA 2K is the industry's dominant basketball video game, with Take-Two releasing a new version annually. Other notable franchises include Red Dead Redemption, Borderlands, and Civilization. Typically, more than three quarters of the firm's sales are from in-game spending, with the remainder coming from initial game sales. Since acquiring Zynga in 2022, mobile makes up about half of total sales.

Apple Inc&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) latest legal setback is a headwind, but one analyst says the impact on the iPhone maker&#8217;s stock price is materially lower than investors feared. 
What Happened: JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AAPL/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">an Overweight rating</a> on Apple, according to a Thursday research note.
The note comes one day after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit denied Apple&#8217;s emergency application to halt changes to its App Store that resulted from a legal spat with Epic Games.
Judge Gonzalez enforced Apple to allow link-out payments for applications at 0% commission versus 27% prior, Chatterjee noted. Implementing Gonzalez&#8217;s order will moderate Services revenue growth by up to 200 bps, which will result in an EPS headwind of 2%- 3%, as highlighted in his prior report.
However, Chatterjee said the actual impact will be driven by consumers&#8217; adoption rate for link-out payments.
As a reminder, before implementing the zero-commission link-outs, the analyst estimated that the US App Store would contribute $11.3 billion in fiscal 2025 (~3% of aggregate revenues).
In the future, investors will watch out for the appeal process against Gonzalez&#8217;s order, which may take two years or even more if the case reaches the Supreme Court. Other geographies will leverage the precedence from the current ruling to demand similar implementation of zero commission link-outs, Chatterjee said.

Why It Matters: Analyst Cory A Carpenter noted that the court denial is a big deal for app developers, many of whom have already updated their apps to accept credit card payments.
For apps that previously paid fees to Apple, the analyst estimated a potential annual margin uplift:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>2%-4% for Match Group, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MTCH#NASDAQ">MTCH</a>) and Bumble Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMBL#NASDAQ">BMBL</a>)</li>
<li>1%-2% for Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTWO#NASDAQ">TTWO</a>)</li>
<li>0.2%-0.5% for Electronic Arts Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EA#NASDAQ">EA</a>), and </li>
<li>2%-5% for PLAYSTUDIOS, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MYPS#NASDAQ">MYPS</a>).</li>
</ul>
Importantly, app store fee relief should represent upside potential to prior guidance, Carpenter said, as companies did not include any relief in their outlooks given the pending stay decision.
Roblox Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RBLX#NYSE">RBLX</a>) generates 30% of revenue from the app store, but the analyst says the margin uplift will depend on how much savings are passed on to developers.
Carpenter said some apps previously did not allow users to subscribe on the app store due to Apple fees, and these companies should see a user acquisition benefit. The companies included Spotify Technology (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>), Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Kindle, and Epic Games.
Spotify said in an Amicus briefing on May 19 that its iOS app update had significantly increased iOS users upgrading to a Premium subscription analyst.
Carpenter expects Applovin Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APP#NASDAQ">APP</a>) to be an indirect beneficiary as developers re allocate app store fees to user acquisition.
Price Action: Apple stock is up 0.29% to $203.40 at last check Thursday.

Apple Faces Modest Earnings Hit After Court Ruling But Analyst Expects Match, Bumble, Spotify To Gain

JP Morgan analyst Cory Carpenter named Take-Two Interactive Software (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTWO#NASDAQ">TTWO</a>) and Xometry (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XMTR#NASDAQ">XMTR</a>) as top picks within the internet small and mid-cap (SMID) and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/video-games" rel="noreferrer noopener">video games</a> sectors.
As part of a wider reassessment of the internet SMID and video games sectors, this modification by JP Morgan encapsulates their latest industry analysis and projections.
The key conclusion of this assessment is that small-cap internet stocks continue to underperform significantly, marking the fifth consecutive year of this trend.

Despite this, the sector shows some resilience with the median covered company projected to grow revenue by 9% and maintain a 20% EBITDA margin in 2025, with all companies now adjusted EBITDA profitable, the analyst observed in the report.
A notable finding is the potential positive impact of the App Store ruling on companies like Match Group (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MTCH#NASDAQ">MTCH</a>) and Bumble (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMBL#NASDAQ">BMBL</a>), which may result in some fee relief.
While overall estimates for 2025 have seen slight downward revisions, the report highlights specific opportunities and dislocations, such as Take-Two Interactive as a top pick due to the anticipated GTA VI release, and identifies Roku, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROKU#NASDAQ">ROKU</a>) and Xometry as companies with stock dislocations worth watching.
Carpenter maintained an Overweight rating on Take-Two Interactive with a price forecast of $250 due to the highly anticipated GTA VI (May 2026), its status as the most anticipated video game release in history, and strong performance from NBA 2K and Zynga. While GTA VI delays pose a risk, the firm projects significant growth with $8.75 billion in bookings and $9 adjusted EPS in FY27, driven by GTA VI unit sales.
The analyst has rated Xometry Overweight with a $38 price forecast, calling it a top small-cap pick. The custom manufacturing marketplace is seen as a clear leader in a growing online market, with accelerating revenue. Despite risks like manufacturing contraction, Xometry is projected for $595 million in marketplace revenue and $13 million adjusted EBITDA in 2025. Tariffs, supply chain uncertainty, and onshoring should accelerate share gains, as per the analyst. He increased the price forecast from $36 to $38.
Carpenter also increased the price forecast for Roblox Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RBLX#NYSE">RBLX</a>) (from $80 to $100), citing beat and raise first-quarter and strong second-quarter intra-quarter trends.
The analyst raised the price forecast on Roku, Inc. from $75 to $85, citing China tariff relief and platform revenue upside potential.
He boosted the price forecast on Applovin Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APP#NASDAQ">APP</a>) from $355 to $400, citing a first-quarter beat, app store ruling, and self-serve catalyst.
Carpenter downgraded Bumble from Neutral to Underweight, maintaining a $5 price forecast, despite the stock&#8217;s recent 50%+ surge since Liberation Day.
The upgrade in profit, driven by cost cuts, offset weaker revenue. However, Carpenter anticipates accelerated declines in revenue and payers, citing worsening U.S. download trends.
He expects margins to moderate as brand marketing resumes (i.e., another big upgrade seems unlikely) and notes continued challenges in the online dating sector, especially with Gen Z engagement. Tinder&#8217;s turnaround is further along, yet Match Group shares are near all-time lows, reflecting industry-wide struggles.

Shares of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTWO#NASDAQ">TTWO</a>) is trading lower on Friday, after the company reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58d52968b85e930001416e4f/michael-pachter">mixed fiscal fourth-quarter results on Thursday</a>.
The announcement came amid an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">exciting earnings season</a>. Here are some key analyst takeaways.
Wedbush On Take-Two Interactive Software
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58ad8d48b85e930001f97170/robert-ohmes">Analyst Michael Pachter</a> maintained an Outperform rating, while raising the price target from $253 to $269.
Take-Two Interactive Software reported its quarterly results broadly in-line with expectations, Pachter said in a note. The company declared net bookings of $1.582 billion, above consensus of $1.550 billion and hitting "the high end of its guidance on a solid release slate, strong back catalog performance, live services, and continued mobile success," he added.
Management guided to net bookings of $5.9 billion–$6 billion and earnings of $2.45–$2.70 per share for fiscal 2026, missing the guidance, the analyst stated. The guidance was impacted by a delay in the launch of Grand Theft Auto VI from the fall of 2025 to May 26, 2026, he mentioned.

Raymond James On Take-Two Interactive Software
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/660e8c32d4edd70001a6ca22/andy-marok">Analyst Andrew Marok</a> reiterated an Outperform rating, while lifting the price target from $240 to $250.
Take-Two Interactive Software reported solid results for the fiscal fourth quarter, with bookings hitting the top end of the guidance range, Marok said. Both NBA 2K25 and mobile delivered strong performances, he added.
Fiscal 2026 is "shaping up solidly on the release front," with a strong response to major titles, the analyst stated. "Fan reception to Mafia and TTWO's other headline release, Borderlands 4, have been solidly positive to date, which should provide a high floor for FY26 bookings given the ongoing momentum in other areas of the business like NBA 2K and the company's mobile business," he further wrote.
Benchmark On Take-Two Interactive Software
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/5935519f85b07a0001c0bc58/mike-hickey">Analyst Mike Hickey</a> reaffirmed a Buy rating and price target of $250.
Take-Two Interactive Software delivered strong figures, driven by a "broad based performance across core franchises and mobile," Hickey said. NBA 2K25 sold nearly 10 million units, up 7% year-on-year, he added.
Recurrent consumer spending grew 14% year-on-year and contributed 77% of the company's total net bookings, the analyst stated. Grand Theft Auto V has now sold over 215 million units, and the "excitement for Grand Theft Auto VI continues to build," he further wrote.
TTWO Price Action: Shares of Take-Two Interactive Software had declined by 1.5% to $228.80 at the time of publication on Friday.

Earnings Beats

Take-Two Q4 Beats On NBA 2K, Mobile; Analysts Flag Cautious Guidance On GTA 6 Delay

Wall Street fought for a fifth consecutive day of gains on Friday, with major indexes edging slightly higher by midday in New York as investors continued to digest the week's significant trade breakthroughs and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s">recalibrate their economic expectations.</a>
The S&amp;P 500 rose 0.1% to 5,925, its highest level since early March, while the Nasdaq 100 held firm after a strong prior session. Gains were broad but cautious as markets balanced optimism over de-escalating tariffs with growing macro concerns. 
Healthcare stocks rebounded from recent underperformance, buoyed by a rally in Eli Lilly &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>), while the energy sector lagged as crude prices cooled.
The U.S. dollar surged after the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45470155/consumer-sentiment-crashes-to-5-year-lows-as-inflation-fears-reach-1981-levels">University of Michigan's consumer sentiment report</a> delivered one of the bleakest stagflationary signals in recent decades. 
The headline Consumer Sentiment Index dropped to its lowest level since June 2020, while the Consumer Expectations subindex hit levels not seen since 1980. Year-ahead inflation expectations soared to 7.3%, the highest since late 1981. 
The spike in inflation fears rattled rate-cut bets. Fed funds futures slashed the odds of a June interest rate cut to just 5%, effectively pricing out any move next month. 
Markets now fully price the first rate cut only by October 2025, with a second possibly arriving in December.
Treasury yields rose as bond prices fell, with the 30-year yield rising back to 4.90%, following the dismal sentiment data. The combination of rising yields and a stronger dollar weighed heavily on gold, which dropped 1.8% and is headed for its worst weekly performance since November 2024. 
In crypto, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) bounced back and reclaimed the $104,500 level.
