(NASDAQ:TTWO) today released final results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended October 31, 2005, unchanged from its previously announced preliminary results. Net revenues in the fourth quarter ended October 31, 2005 were $308.2 million compared to $438.0 million for the same period a year ago when results included the launch of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas for the PlayStation(R)2 computer entertainment system. Fourth quarter 2005 net income was $19.2 million with diluted net income per share of $0.27 compared to net income of $62.6 million and diluted net income per share of $0.91 for the same period last year. Net revenues for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2005 increased 6% to $1.20 billion from $1.13 billion for the prior year. Net income of $37.5 million for fiscal 2005 compared to net income of $65.4 million for the prior year with diluted earnings per share of $0.53 compared to $0.95 per diluted share last year. The Company's diluted earnings per share for the periods above do not include the impact of adopting FASB 123(R), requiring the expensing of employee stock options beginning on November 1, 2005. The Company expects to file its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2005 by the close of business on February 1, 2006. Separately, Take-Two announced that a fire had damaged the Manhattan based offices of 2K Games, Global Star and Joytech North America. The Company is thankful to report that no employees were injured. However, due to the significant damage sustained to these leased offices, the Company has temporarily relocated all of these employees, consisting primarily of marketing and administrative personnel, and to a limited extent, product testing personnel. While Take-Two is still determining the overall financial and operational impact of the fire, the Company does not expect any significant effect on its business.
