Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Take-Two Interactive Software stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Take Two’s enviable product portfolio that includes Grand Theft Auto, NBA 2K and WWE2K series along with increasing digital revenues will continue to drive growth. Moreover, the company will benefit from the recent acquisition of Barcelona-based mobile games developer, Social Point. Management expects Social Point to contribute 6% of the net revenue in the current fiscal.  The company’s attempts to strengthen its presence in the lucrative e-sports market are prudent in our view. Over the past one year, share prices have vastly outperformed the Zacks categorized Toys/Games/Hobby Prod industry. However, hit-driven and competitive nature of the video game industry begets caution." (7/27/2017)
• 2. Stifel Nicolaus analysts commented, "On Tuesday, Take-Two reported FY3Q results that exceeded expectations, with non-GAAP EPS of $0.99 (vs. $0.89), which beat our estimate ($0.94) and consensus ($0.97) ~ the variance was due largely to better top line, with non-GAAP revenue at $745 million (+53%) or about $15 million higher than our forecast. Digital surged +67%, with bookings from recurrent consumer spending up +55% y/y, propelled by outperformance for the Grand Theft Auto franchise (including GTA Online). FY2017 guidance was increased, and we've made upward adjustments to estimates as well. Overall, we thought this was a solid quarter for Take-Two, believe our investment thesis remains intact, and continue to recommend purchase of the shares." (2/9/2017)
• 3. Benchmark Co. analysts commented, "We view the Company's share price risk / reward profile balancing positive; valuation should benefit from strong execution over conservative guidance, an on-going digital sales opportunity and related margin expansion as the industry accelerates its transition to digital and a strong fiscal '18 growth potential, offset somewhat by an on-going roll forward of anticipated Rockstar games and op-ex growth. We view management as credible, with recent performance generating financial upside; we believe their fiscal '17 guidance is conservative, and note the recent trends in digital and recurring digital spends have demonstrated growth."
