UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Introduction

On May 23, 2022, Take-Two completed its acquisition of Zynga pursuant to the merger agreement dated January 9, 2022 (as amended on May 4, 2022, the “Merger Agreement"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub 1 merged with and into Zynga with Zynga continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Take-Two, and immediately following the merger, the surviving corporation in the merger merged with and into Merger Sub 2, with Merger Sub 2 continuing as the surviving corporation.

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the six months ended September 30, 2022 and the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 gives effect to the combination as if it had occurred on April 1, 2021, and combines the historical results of Take-Two and Zynga. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the six months ended September 30, 2022 combines the historical consolidated financial statements of operations of Take-Two for the six months ended September 30, 2022, which includes Zynga from the period following the closing of the acquisition on May 23, 2022 to September 30, 2022, with the historical combined statement of operations of Zynga for the period from April 1, 2022 to May 22, 2022. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 combines the audited consolidated statement of operations of Take-Two for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, and Zynga’s derived unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the twelve months ended March 31, 2022.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not include an unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2022 as the acquisition was consummated on May 23, 2022 and is reflected in the Take-Two’s historical unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022 included in the Take-Two’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 8, 2022.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information has been prepared pursuant to Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

The historical consolidated financial statements of Take-Two and the historical consolidated financial statements of Zynga have been adjusted in the accompanying unaudited pro forma combined financial information to give effect to pro forma events that are transaction accounting adjustments which are necessary to account for the combination in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that our management believes are reasonable.
The unaudited pro forma combined financial information should be read in conjunction with:

Description of the Combination

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub 1 merged with and into Zynga with Zynga continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Take-Two, and immediately following the merger, Zynga, the surviving corporation in the merger merged with and into Merger Sub 2, with Merger Sub 2 continuing as the surviving corporation. As a result, each issued and outstanding share of Zynga Common Stock converted into a



number of shares of Take-Two’s common stock equal to the Exchange Ratio (defined below) and the right to receive $3.50 in cash.

The transaction included a collar mechanism on the equity consideration based on the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of Take-Two Common Stock (the “Exchange Ratio”). If Take-Two common stock’s 20-day VWAP ending on the third trading day prior to closing was in a range from $156.50 to $181.88, the exchange ratio would be adjusted to deliver $6.36 of equity value based on that VWAP and $3.50 in cash. If the VWAP exceeded the higher end of that range, the Exchange Ratio would be 0.0350 per share, and if the VWAP fell below the lower end of that range, the Exchange Ratio would be 0.0406 per share.

At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding share of common stock of Zynga, par value $0.0000625 per share (“Zynga Common Stock”), other than dissenting shares and treasury shares, was converted into 0.0406 shares (the “Stock Consideration”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Take-Two Common Stock”) with a cash payment in lieu of fractional shares of Take-Two Common stock resulting from such calculation, and the right to receive $3.50 in cash (the “Cash Consideration” and, together with the Stock Consideration, the “Merger Consideration”). In addition, at the Effective Time, (i) each outstanding and unexercised option to purchase shares of Zynga Common Stock granted under any Zynga employee benefit plan, whether vested or unvested, was assumed by Take-Two and automatically converted into an option exercisable for shares of Take-Two Common Stock under the Take-Two equity plan, in accordance with the equity award exchange ratio in accordance with the Merger Agreement, (ii) each outstanding Zynga restricted stock unit whose vesting is not conditioned in whole or in part on the satisfaction of performance criteria that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, was assumed by Take-Two and automatically converted into a Take-Two restricted stock unit award with respect to shares of Take-Two Common Stock under the Take-Two equity plan, with the new number of shares underlying such award determined in accordance with the equity award exchange ratio in accordance with the Merger Agreement, and (iii) each outstanding Zynga restricted stock unit whose vesting is conditioned on the satisfaction of performance criteria, that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, was assumed by Take-Two and automatically converted into a Take-Two restricted stock unit award with respect to shares of Take-Two Common Stock under the Take-Two equity plan, with the new number of shares underlying such award determined in accordance with the equity award exchange ratio in accordance with the Merger Agreement. Upon the effectiveness of the Merger, Zynga Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Description of the Financing

In connection with the transaction, on April 14, 2022, Take-Two issued a registered offering of senior notes for an aggregate principal amount of $2,700,000,000 (“Bonds”). In addition, in June 2022, the Company drew down $200,000,000 on its $500,000,000 revolving credit facility (the “Revolving credit facility”) and entered into a new $350,000,000 Term loan facility (“Term loan”) with a one-year maturity expiring in June 2023. The proceeds from the Bonds and the Term loan, together with the Company’s new Revolving credit facility, were used to finance the cash consideration payable to Zynga shareholders and convertible note holders (further described below) pursuant to the combination.

Convertible Senior Notes

In June 2019, Zynga issued $690,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 0.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”). The conversion rate (without giving effect to any adjustment resulting from the combination that may be required by the applicable indenture) was 120.3695 shares of Zynga Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2024 Notes, which is equal to a conversion price of approximately $8.31 per share of Zynga Class A Common Stock. The principal amount for the 2024 Notes as of March 31, 2022 was $690,000,000.

In December 2020, Zynga issued $874,500,000 aggregate principal amount of 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). The conversion rate (without giving effect to any adjustment resulting from the combination that may be required by the applicable indenture) was 76.5404 shares of Zynga Class A Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2026 Notes, which is equal to a conversion price of approximately $13.07 per share of Zynga Class A Common Stock. The principal amount for the 2026 Notes as of March 31, 2022 was $874,500,000.

In connection with the issuances of the 2024 Notes and 2026 Notes, Zynga entered into privately negotiated Capped Call options with certain counterparties (the “2024 Capped Calls” and “2026 Capped Calls,” respectively). The 2024 Capped Calls had an initial strike price of approximately $8.31 per share, subject to certain adjustments, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2024 Notes and an initial cap price of $12.54 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The 2026 Capped Calls had an initial strike price of approximately $13.07 per share, subject to certain adjustments, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2026 Notes and an initial cap price of $17.42 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The 2024 Capped Calls and 2026 Capped Calls were intended to reduce the potential economic dilution to Zynga Class A Common Stock upon any conversion of the 2024 Notes or



2026 Notes, respectively, and/or offset any cash payments made in excess of the principal amount of converted notes with such reduction and/or offset, as the case may be, subject to a maximum based on the cap price.

Upon completion of the combination, holders of the 2024 Notes and 2026 Notes were entitled to elect to convert the convertible notes at a special make-whole conversion rate, and, upon any such conversion Take-Two was entitled to settle such conversion for (i) cash, (ii) the cash and stock components of the merger consideration, or (iii) a combination thereof. Further, in anticipation of the settlement of the 2024 Notes and 2026 Notes, the Company negotiated termination agreements prior to the closing of the merger with the 2024 Capped Call counterparties and 2026 Capped Call counterparties related to the 2024 Capped Calls and 2026 Capped Calls agreements, respectively, stipulating the cash settlement amount based on the 5-day VWAP of the Termination Valuation Period (as defined in applicable agreements).

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information includes adjustments to reflect the conversion of the 2024 convertible notes that were converted at the election of the holders (and the settlement thereof by Take-Two in merger consideration) and settlement of all the 2024 Capped Calls.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information reflects the cash settlement of all of the 2026 Notes that were settled at the election of the holders (equal to par value of the notes) and settlement of all the 2026 Capped Calls.

Accounting for the Combination

The combination is being accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method with Take-Two as the accounting acquirer in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations. Under this method of accounting, the aggregate merger consideration will be allocated to Zynga’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of completion of the combination. The process of valuing the net assets of Zynga immediately prior to the combination, as well as evaluating accounting policies for conformity, is preliminary. Any differences between the estimated fair value of the consideration transferred and the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded as goodwill. Accordingly, the aggregate merger consideration allocation and related adjustments reflected in this unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations are preliminary and subject to revision based on a final determination of fair value. Refer to Note 1—Basis of Presentation for more information.

The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations have been prepared for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of what the combined company’s statements of operations actually would have been had the combination occurred as of the dates indicated. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations also should not be considered indicative of the future results of operations of Take-Two.

The combination is subject to closing adjustments that have not yet been finalized. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of providing unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations as required by SEC rules. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final combination accounting may be material.

TAKE-TWO INTERACTIVE SOFTWARE, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
(in 000’s, except per share amounts)

1.Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations have been prepared by Take-Two in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, are presented for illustrative purposes only, and are not necessarily indicative of what Take-Two’s consolidated statements of operations would have been had the combination been completed as of the dates indicated or will be for any future periods. The pro forma combined statements of operations do not purport to project the results of operations of Take-Two following the completion of the combination. The pro forma combined statements of operations reflect transaction accounting adjustments management believes are necessary to present fairly Take-Two’s pro forma results of operations following the closing of the combination for the periods indicated. The unaudited pro forma statements of operations do not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies, or revenue enhancements that the combined company may achieve as a result of the combination, nor do they reflect all costs to integrate the operations of Take-Two and Zynga or the costs necessary to achieve any cost savings, operating synergies, and revenue enhancements.

The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, with Take-Two as the accounting acquirer, using the fair value concepts defined in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, and based on the historical consolidated financial statements of Take-Two and the historical consolidated financial statements of Zynga. Under ASC 805, the total consideration transferred was calculated as described in Note 14 of Take-Two’s September 30, 2022 Form 10-Q.

The transaction accounting adjustments represent Take-Two management’s best estimates and are based upon currently available information and certain assumptions that Take-Two believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Take-Two is not aware of any material transactions between Take-Two and Zynga (prior to the announcement of the combination) during the periods presented; hence, adjustments to eliminate transactions between Take-Two and Zynga have not been reflected in the unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations.

Take-Two conducted a review of Zynga’s accounting policies to determine if differences in accounting policies and account classifications require reclassification of results of operations or reclassification of assets or liabilities to conform to Take-Two’s accounting policies and classifications. The accounting policies followed in preparing the unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations reflect the adjustments known at this time to conform Zynga’s historical financial information to Take-Two’s significant accounting policies described in the Transaction Accounting adjustments in Note 4. Additional differences may be identified as Take-Two finalizes their review. In addition, certain reclassification adjustments were identified as described in Note 2 below.

The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations presented reflect the early adoption of ASU 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. Under this new standard, deferred revenue acquired in a business combination is measured pursuant to ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, rather than its assumed acquisition date fair value. Take-Two early adopted this standard in fiscal year 2023 (as of April 1, 2022) and therefore has accounted for the merger under the new standard. The adoption of the standard has no retrospective impact to Take-Two’s historical combined financial statements or Zynga’s historical consolidated financial statements.

The pro forma combined statements of operations for the six months ended September 30, 2022 and the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, presented herein, are based on the historical consolidated financial statements of Take-Two and the historical consolidated financial statements of Zynga. The adjustments presented in the unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations have been identified and presented to provide relevant information necessary to assist in understanding the post-combination company.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended September 30, 2022 has been derived from the following:
The unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations of Take-Two for the six months ended September 30, 2022
The unaudited accounting records of Zynga for the period from April 1, 2022 through May 22, 2022

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 has been derived from the following:
The audited consolidated statement of operations of Take-Two for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022



The derived unaudited consolidated statement of operations of Zynga for the twelve months ended March 31, 2022

Zynga’s results for the twelve months ended March 31, 2022 were derived by subtracting the results for the unaudited three months ended March 31, 2021 from its audited statement of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and adding the results for the unaudited three months ended March 31, 2022.


2.Reclassification Adjustments

The accounting policies used in the preparation of this unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations are those set out in Take-Two’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended September 30, 2022 and the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022. During the preparation of the unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations, management performed a preliminary analysis of Zynga’s financial information to identify differences in accounting policies as compared to those of Take-Two and differences in financial statement presentation as compared to the presentation of Take-Two. With the information currently available, Take-Two determined there are certain accounting policy differences which have been adjusted for in the unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations and described in the transaction accounting adjustments in Note 4.

In addition, certain reclassification adjustments have been made to conform Zynga’s historical financial statement presentation to Take-Two’s financial statement presentation. The reclassification adjustments are based on currently available information and assumptions management believes are, under the circumstances and given the information available at this time, reasonable, and reflective of adjustments necessary to report information of the combined company.

The combined company is finalizing a full and detailed review of Zynga’s accounting policies and financial statements presentation. As a result of the review, additional accounting policy and classification differences may be identified and these differences, when identified, could have a material impact on the combined company unaudited pro forma combined financial information.

The reclassification adjustments currently identified are as follows:

A) Refer to the table below for a summary of reclassification adjustments made to present Zynga’s derived statement of operations for the period April 1, 2022 through May 22, 2022 to conform with that of Take-Two’s (amounts in 000’s):

(I) The pro forma adjustments for the tax provision utilize a blended statutory income tax rate of 22% for the six months ended September 30, 2022 and the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022. Although not reflected in these unaudited pro forma combined financial statements, the effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different depending on post-merger activities, including repatriation decisions, cash needs, and the geographical mix of income. Further, the pro forma adjustments for the tax provision reflect the benefit of U.S. deferred taxes generated by Zynga during the pro forma statement of operations periods presented. Historically, Zynga had not recorded the benefit of these U.S. deferred taxes within its consolidated tax provision as Zynga had concluded that realization of these deferred taxes was not more-likely-than-not.

(J) The pro forma basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding are a combination of historic weighted average shares of Take-Two common stock and the issuance of shares in connection with the combination. In connection with the combination, Take-Two converted certain equity awards held by Zynga employees with Take-Two equity awards. At this time, Take-Two has completed a preliminary analysis related to eligible employees and vesting schedules in order to determine the impact to the basic and diluted weighted average shares from the converted awards. The pro forma basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding are as follows:

(i)Because these shares were issued on May 22, 2022, they have been outstanding and included for 4.3 months in Take-Two's historical weighted average shares outstanding for the six months ended September 30, 2022. Therefore, the number of common shares issued to Zynga shareholders is calculated by multiplying the total number of common shares issued of 46,311 by 1.3 / 6 months.

(ii)Because these shares were issued throughout June 2022, they have been outstanding and included in Take-Two's historical weighted average shares outstanding for only a portion of the six months ended September 30, 2022. Therefore, the number of common shares issued for the Conversion of the 2024 Notes is calculated by multiplying the total number of common shares issued of 3,727 by the percent of days outstanding during the six months ended September 30, 2022 the shares had not been issued (in order to reflect the shares outstanding for the entire period).

(iii)Because these shares were replaced on May 22, 2022, they have been outstanding and included for 4.3 months in Take-Two's historical weighted average shares outstanding for the six months ended September 30, 2022. Therefore, the number of replacement awards vesting is calculated by multiplying the total number of replacement awards vested for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 of 1,001 by 1.3 / 6 months plus any incremental awards vested during the interim period presented.

(iv)Outstanding potentially dilutive common stock, share-based awards, including Take-Two replacement awards to Zynga equity holders, and shares from Convertible notes are anti-dilutive and are not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share.
