Do Wall Street Analysts Like Take-Two Interactive Stock?![]() Valued at $38.2 billion by market cap, Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (TTWO) is a leading U.S.-based video game publisher known for iconic franchises like Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption, NBA 2K, and Borderlands. Founded in 1993 and headquartered in New York City, the company has a strong presence across console, PC, and mobile platforms. Shares of this video game titan have outperformed the broader market over the past year. TTWO has gained 57.4% over this time frame, while the broader S&P 500 Index ($SPX) has rallied nearly 11.9%. In 2025, TTWO stock is up 29%, surpassing SPX’s 1% rise on a YTD basis. Zooming in further, TTWO’s outperformance is also apparent compared to the Global X Video Games & Esports ETF (HERO). The exchange-traded fund has gained about 36% over the past year. Moreover, TTWO’s returns on a YTD basis outshine the ETF’s 24.2% gains over the same time frame. ![]() On May 19, Morgan Stanley (MS) increased its price target on Take-Two Interactive from $210 to $265, reaffirming its "Overweight" rating and signaling strong confidence in the company's growth prospects. Following the price target hike, its shares rose more than 3%. Additionally, the company reported its fiscal Q4 2025 earnings on May 15, and its shares dropped 2.4% in the next trading session. Revenue rose 13% year-over-year to $1.58 billion, exceeding expectations, while net bookings increased 17% to $1.58 billion, driven by strong performance from titles like NBA 2K25 and WWE 2K25. However, the company posted a significant net loss of $3.73 billion, primarily due to a $3.55 billion goodwill impairment charge. For the current fiscal year ending in March 2026, analysts expect TTWO’s EPS to grow 726.8% to $4.63 on a diluted basis. The company’s earnings surprise history is impressive. It beat the consensus estimate in each of the last four quarters. Among the 25 analysts covering TTWO stock, the consensus is a “Strong Buy.” That’s based on 21 “Strong Buy” ratings, two “Moderate Buys,” and two “Holds.” ![]() TTWO’s mean price target of $243.38 implies a premium of 2.5% from the current market prices. The Street-high price target of $275 suggests an upside potential of 15.8%.
