TAKE-TWO INTERACTIVE SOFTWARE, INC. and SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Interim Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited) 1. Organization: Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (the "Company") is a leading global developer, publisher and distributor of interactive software games designed for multimedia personal computers and video game console platforms. 2. Restatement of Financial Statements In November 2001, the Company engaged outside counsel to conduct an investigation into the Company's accounting treatment of certain transactions in fiscal 2000 and 2001. Counsel was assisted in its investigation by forensic accountants. As a result of the investigation, the Company restated its previously issued consolidated financial statements for fiscal 2000 and each of the quarters in fiscal 2000 and the first three quarters in fiscal 2001. The restatement of the financial statements for the three months ended January 31, 2000 relates to the elimination of $2,195,057 of net sales made to independent third party distributors and related cost of sales of $870,654 and the related tax effect, which were improperly recognized as revenue since the products were later returned or repurchased by the Company. In addition, the Company reviewed its revenue recognition policy, reserve policies and its accounting for certain other transactions. As a result of this review, no additional adjustments were required to the financial statements for the three months ended January 31, 2000. The effect of the restatement for the three months ended January 31, 2000 is as follows: Three months ended January 31, 2000 As Reported Restatement As Restated --------------- --------------- --------------- Statement of Operations Data: Net sales $ 122,889,726 $ (2,195,057) $ 120,694,669 Cost of sales $ 86,273,609 $ (870,654) $ 85,402,955 Income from operations $ 9,017,467 $ (1,324,403) $ 7,693,064 Income before provision for income taxes $ 7,354,828 $ (1,324,403) $ 6,030,425 Provision for income taxes $ 2,568,170 $ (503,273) $ 2,064,897 Net income $ 4,786,658 $ (821,130) $ 3,965,528 Basic income per share $ 0.21 $ (0.04) $ 0.17 Diluted income per share $ 0.20 $ (0.04) $ 0.16 5

January 31, 2000 As Reported As Restated --------------- --------------- Balance Sheet Data Accounts receivable $ 95,442,481 $ 93,247,424 Inventories $ 45,958,636 $ 46,781,625 Prepaid royalties - current $ 31,101,065 $ 31,148,730 Total assets $ 250,101,045 $ 248,776,642 Accrued expenses and other current liabilities $ 27,277,951 $ 26,774,678 Total liabilities $ 158,695,011 $ 158,191,738 Retained earnings $ 23,188,283 $ 22,367,153 Total liabilities and stockholders' equity $ 250,101,045 $ 248,776,642 Amendment of Credit Agreement As a result of the restatement, in February 2002, the Company retroactively amended its covenants under the credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A. to December 1999. Accordingly, as of January 31, 2000, the Company was in compliance with the covenants, as amended. All applicable amounts relating to the aforementioned restatements have been reflected in these unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements and notes thereto. 3. Significant Accounting Policies and Transactions: Basis of Presentation The Interim Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and disclosures necessary for a presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operation and cash flows for such periods. The results of operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1999. 6

Risk and Uncertainties The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The most significant estimates and assumptions relate to: the recoverability of capitalized software development costs, prepaid royalties, advances to developers and other intangibles; allowances for returns and income taxes. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates. Prepaid Royalties Prepaid royalties represent prepayments made to independent software developers under development agreements. Prepaid royalties are expensed at the contractual royalty rate as cost of goods sold based on actual net product sales. Management continuously evaluates the future realization of prepaid royalties, and charges to cost of sales any amount that management deems unlikely to be realized at the contractual royalty rate through product sales. Prepaid royalties are classified as current and non-current assets based upon estimated net product sales within the next year. No prepaid royalties were written down for the three months ended January 31, 2000. For the three months ended January 31, 1999, prepaid royalties were written down by $656,698 to estimated net realizable value. Amortization of prepaid royalties for the three months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999 amounted to $2,802,815 and $1,929,839 respectively. Capitalized Software Development Costs Costs associated with research and development are expensed as incurred. Software development costs incurred subsequent to establishing technological feasibility are capitalized. Capitalized software costs are compared, by game title, to estimated net realizable value of the product and capitalized amounts in excess of estimated net realizable value, if any, are immediately written off. Capitalized software costs were written down by $9,000 and $168,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, to estimated net realizable value. Amortization of capitalized software costs amounted to $68,883 and $50,000 for estimated three months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999 respectively. Segment Reporting SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS No. 131"), establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual financial statements. SFAS No. 131 had no impact on the Company's results of operation, financial position or cash flows. The Company's operations fall within one reportable segment as defined by SFAS No. 131. 7

Revenue Recognition Distribution revenue is derived from the sale of third-party interactive software games and hardware and is recognized upon the shipment of product to retailers. Distribution revenue amounted to $59,944,649 and $44,350,619 for the three months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Company sometimes negotiates accommodations to retailers, including price discounts, credits and product returns, when demand for specific products fall below expectations. Historically, the Company's write-offs from returns for its distribution activities have been less than 1% of distribution revenues. Publishing revenue is derived from the sale of internally developed interactive software games or from the sale of product licensed from a third party developer and is recognized upon the shipment of product to retailers. Publishing revenue amounted to $60,750,020 and $23,930,034 for the three months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Company has historically experienced a product return rate of approximately 10% of gross publishing revenues. The Company's distribution arrangements with retailers generally do not give them the right to return products, however, the Company generally accepts product returns for stock balancing or defective products. The Company's publishing arrangements require the Company to accept product returns. The Company establishes a reserve for future returns at the time of product sales, based primarily on these return policies, markdown allowances, and historical return rates, and as such, the Company recognizes revenues net of product returns. 4. Income Taxes The provision for income taxes for the three months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999 are based on the Company's estimated annualized tax rate for the respective years, after giving effect to the utilization of available tax credits and tax planning opportunities. 5. Net Income per Share The following table provides a reconciliation of basic earnings per share to diluted earnings per share for the three months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999. Net Per Share Income Shares Amount --------------- --------------- --------------- Three Months Ended January 31, 2000 - Restated: Basic $ 3,965,528 23,199,395 $ .17 Effect of dilutive securities - Stock options and warrants 1,278,538 (.01) --------------- --------------- --------------- Diluted $ 3,965,528 24,477,933 $ .16 =============== =============== =============== Three Months Ended January 31, 1999: Basic $ 2,894,836 18,212,240 $ .16 Effect of dilutive securities - Stock options and warrants 1,322,171 (.01) --------------- --------------- --------------- Diluted $ 2,894,836 19,534,411 $ .15 =============== =============== =============== The January 31, 2000 computation for diluted number of shares excludes unexercised stock options and warrants which are anti-dilutive. 8

6. Subsequent Events In February 2000, the Company purchased 400,000 shares of common stock from eUniverse, Inc. ("eUniverse"), a leading on-line gaming and entertainment network for $5.00 per share. In connection with the transaction, eUniverse purchased all of the capital stock of Falcon Ventures Corporation d/b/a DVDWave.com from the Company for 310,000 shares of common stock. eUniverse agreed to register these shares under the Securities Act of 1933. In March 2000, the Company consummated a private sale to one investor of 446,678 shares of Common Stock and received proceeds of $5,000,000 in cash. In March 2000, the Company acquired from Broadband Solutions, Inc. all of the outstanding capital stock of Netherlands based Toga Holdings BV, which owns Pixel Broadband Studios, Ltd., a leading developer of multiplayer broadband gaming technology, for approximately $4.45 million in cash and approximately 2,563,849 shares of common stock. 9

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Restatement of Historical Financial Statements In November 2001, in connection with an informal and voluntary request from the SEC to provide documents, the Company engaged outside counsel to conduct an investigation into the Company's accounting treatment of certain transactions in fiscal 2000 and 2001. Counsel retained advisors to perform a forensic accounting investigation. As a result of the investigation, the Company restated its previously issued consolidated financial statements for fiscal 2000 and each of the quarters in fiscal 2000 and the first three quarters in fiscal 2001. The restatement of the financial statements for the three months ended January 31, 2000 relates to the elimination of $2,195,057 of net sales made to independent third party distributors and related cost of sales of $870,654 and the related tax effect, which were improperly recognized as revenue since the products were later returned or repurchased by the Company. In addition, the Company reviewed its revenue recognition policy, reserve policies and its accounting for certain other transactions. As a result of this review, no additional adjustments were required to the financial statements for the three months ended January 31, 2000. See Note 2 of Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: The statements contained herein which are not historical facts are forward looking statements that involve material risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to: risks associated with the Company's future growth, prospects and operating results; the ability of the Company to successfully integrate the businesses and personnel of newly acquired entities into its operations; the availability of adequate sources of financing; credit risks; inventory obsolescence; products returns; failure of our products to sell-through by retailers; changes in consumer preferences and demographics; technological change; competitive factors; unfavorable general economic conditions; and other factors described herein and in the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3 as filed with the Securities And Exchange Commission, any or all of which could have a material adverse affect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. Actual results may vary significantly from such forward-looking statements. Overview The Company derives its principal sources of revenues from publishing and distribution activities. Publishing revenues are derived from the sale of internally developed interactive entertainment software products or products licensed from third parties. Distribution revenues are derived from the sale of third-party software and hardware products. Publishing activities generally generate higher margins than distribution activities, with sales of PC software resulting in higher margins than sales of cartridges designed for video game consoles. The Company recognizes revenue from software sales when products are shipped. 10

The Company's published products are subject to return if not sold to consumers, including for stock balancing, markdowns or defective products. The Company establishes a reserve for future returns of published products at the time of product sales, based primarily on these return policies and historical return rates, and the Company recognize revenues net of product returns. The Company has historically experienced a product return rate of approximately 10% of gross publishing revenues (less than 1% of distribution revenues). If future product returns significantly exceed these reserves, the Company's operating results would materially be adversely affected. Research and development costs (consisting primarily of salaries and related costs) incurred prior to establishing technological feasibility are expensed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 86. In accordance with FASB 86, the Company capitalizes software development costs subsequent to establishing technological feasibility (completion of a detailed program design) which is amortized (included in cost of sales) based on the greater of the proportion of current year sales to total estimated sales commencing with the product's release or the straight line method. At January 31, 2000, the Company had capitalized $3,219,300 of software development costs. The Company evaluates the recoverability of capitalized software costs which may be reduced materially in future periods. See Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. 11

Results of Operations The following table sets forth for the periods indicated the percentage of net sales represented by certain items reflected in the Company's statement of operations: Three Months Ended January 31, ----------------------------------- 2000 Restated 1999 --------------- --------------- Net sales 100.0 % 100.0 % Cost of sales 70.8 78.4 Selling and marketing 12.7 6.1 General and administrative 7.7 6.5 Research and development costs 1.3 0.9 Depreciation and amortization 1.2 0.7 Interest expense, net 1.2 1.2 Provision for income taxes 1.7 2.1 Net income 3.3 4.2 Results of Three Months Ended January 31, 2000 and 1999 Net sales increased by $52,414,016 or 76.8%, to $120,694,669 for the three months ended January 31, 2000 from $68,280,653 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. The increase in net sales was primarily attributable to the Company's expanded presence in international markets. International publishing revenues increased by $26,360,951 or 203.0%, to $39,343,486 for the three months ended January 31, 2000 from $12,982,535 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. In addition, revenues from distribution activities in the United States increased by $17,181,163, or 40.2% to $59,944,649 for the three months ended January 31, 2000 from $42,763,486 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. Cost of sales increased by $31,865,115, or 59.5%, to $85,402,955 for the three months ended January 31, 2000 from $53,537,840 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. This increase was primarily a result of the expanded scope of the Company's operations. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased primarily due to the higher margin international publishing activities. In future periods, cost of sales may be adversely affected by manufacturing and other costs, price competition and by changes in product and sales mix and distribution channels. 12

Selling and marketing expenses increased by $11,114,421, or 267.1%, to $15,275,624 for the three months ended January 31, 2000 from $4,161,203 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. Selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 12.7% for the three months ended January 31, 2000 from 6.1% for the three months ended January 31, 1999. The increase in both absolute dollars and as a percentage of net sales was primarily attributable to increased marketing and promotion efforts undertaken to broaden product distribution and to assist retailers in positioning our products for sale to consumers. General and administrative expenses increased by $4,883,424, or 110.7%, to $9,294,922 for the three months ended January 31, 2000 from $4,411,498 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 7.7% for the three months ended January 31, 2000 from 6.5% for the three months ended January 31, 1999. This increase in both absolute dollars and as a percentage of net sales was primarily attributable to salaries, rent, insurance premiums and professional fees associated with the Company's expanded operations. Research and development costs increased by $1,033,293, or 174.5%, to $1,625,437 for the three months ended January 31, 2000 from $592,144 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. This increase was primarily attributable to the Company's expansion of its product development operations. Research and development costs as a percentage of net sales remained relatively constant. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $949,252, or 209.4%, to $1,402,667 for the three months ended January 31, 2000 from $453,415 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to the amortization of intangible assets from acquisitions. Interest expense increased by $689,819, or 84.5%, to $1,506,336 for the three months ended January 31, 2000 from $816,517 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. The increase resulted primarily from interest on increased bank borrowings. Income taxes increased by $651,697, or 46.1% to $2,064,897 for the three months ended January 31, 2000 from $1,413,200 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. The increase in absolute dollars resulted primarily from increased pre-tax income. Income tax expense as a percentage of net sales remained relatively constant. As a result of the foregoing, the Company achieved net income of $3,965,528 for the three months ended January 31, 2000, as compared to net income of $2,894,836 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's primary capital requirements have been and will continue to fund the acquisition, development, manufacture and commercialization of its software products. The Company has historically financed its operations primarily through the issuance of debt and equity securities and bank borrowings. At January 31, 2000, the Company had working capital of $43,451,845 as compared to working capital of $41,438,968 at October 31, 1999. 13

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended January 31, 2000 was $5,478,898 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $177,843 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to increase in prepaid royalties and increase in inventories. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended January 31, 2000 was $5,349,099 as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $184,408 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. The increase in net cash used in investing was primarily attributable to the Company's investment activities. Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended January 31, 2000 was $20,714,857 as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $2,245,258 for the three months ended January 31, 1999. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributed to an increase in net borrowings under the line of credit. At January 31, 2000, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $19,255,178. In December 1999, our subsidiary, Take-Two Interactive Software Europe Limited entered into a line of credit agreement with Barclays' Bank. The line of credit provides for borrowings of up to approximately British Pounds 17,000,000 (approximately $25,000,000). Advances under the line of credit bear interest at the rate of 1.4% over Barclays' base rate per annum, payable quarterly. Borrowings are collateralized by receivables of the Company's European subsidiaries, and are guaranteed by the Company. The line of credit is repayable upon demand and is subject to review prior to November 29, 2000. The outstanding balance and available credit under the revolving line of credit is $14,520,254 and $1,801,865, respectively, as of January 31, 2000. In December 1999, the Company entered into a credit agreement with a group of lenders led by Bank of America, N.A., as agent, which provides for borrowings of up to $75,000,000. The Company may increase the credit line to up to $85,000,000 subject to certain conditions. Interest accrues on such advances at the bank's prime rate plus 0.5% or at LIBOR plus 2.5%. Borrowings under the line of credit are collaterized by all of the Company's assets. Under the terms of the credit agreement, the Company is required to comply with certain financial, affirmative and negative covenants, including consolidated net worth, consolidated leverage ratio and consolidated fixed charge ratio. In addition, the credit agreement limits or prohibits the Company from declaring or paying cash dividends, merging or consolidating with another corporation, selling assets (other than in the ordinary course of business), creating liens and incurring additional indebtedness. In February 2002, certain financial covenants and several other covenants were amended retroactively to December 1999. Accordingly, as of January 31, 2000, the Company was in compliance with the covenants, as amended. The line of credit expires on December 7, 2002. The outstanding balance under the revolving line of credit is $60,000,000 as of January 31, 2000. In March 2000, the Company consummated a private sale to one investor of 446,678 shares of Common Stock and received proceeds of $5,000,000 in cash. The Company's accounts receivable, less an allowance for doubtful accounts and returns, at January 31, 2000 were $93,247,424. Of such receivables, approximately $16,117,054 or 17.3% were due from Ames Department Stores. Most of the Company's receivables are covered by insurance and generally have been collected in the ordinary course of business. The Company's sales are typically made on credit, with terms that vary depending upon the customer and the demand for the particular title being sold. The Company does not hold any collateral to secure payment by our customers. As a result, the Company is subject to credit risks, particularly in the event that any of our receivables represent sales to a limited number of retailers or are concentrated in foreign markets. If the Company is unable to collect its accounts receivable as they become due and such accounts are not covered by insurance, our liquidity and working capital position would be materially adversely affected. 14

Based on currently proposed operating plans and assumptions, the Company believes that projected revenues from operations and available cash resources will be sufficient to satisfy its contemplated cash requirements for the reasonably foreseeable future. The Company recently acquired from Broadband Solutions, Inc. all of the outstanding capital stock of Netherlands based Toga Holdings BV, which owns Pixel Broadband Studios, Ltd., a company engaged in the development of multiplayer broadband gaming technology, which may require the Company to seek additional financing to fund ongoing product and technology development efforts. There can be no assurance that projected revenues from operations and available cash resources will be sufficient to fund the Company's operations or future expansion activities (including technology development) or that any additional financing will be available to the Company on commercially reasonable forms or at all. Failure to obtain any such additional financing could severely limit the Company's ability to continue to expand its operations. Fluctuations in Operating Results and Seasonality We have experienced and may continue to experience fluctuations in quarterly operating results as a result of timing in the introduction of new titles; variations in sales of titles developed for particular platforms; market acceptance of our titles; development and promotional expenses relating to the introduction of new titles, sequels or enhancements of existing titles; projected and actual changes in platforms; the timing and success of title introductions by our competitors; product returns; changes in pricing policies by us and our competitors; the accuracy of retailers' forecasts of consumer demand; the size and timing of acquisitions; the timing of orders from major customers; and order cancellations and delays in shipment. Sales of our titles are seasonal, with peak shipments typically occurring in the fourth calendar quarter (our fourth and first fiscal quarters) as a result of increased demand for titles during the holiday season. International Operations Product sales in international markets, primarily in the United Kingdom and other countries in Europe and the Pacific Rim, have accounted for an increasing portion of the Company's revenues. For the three months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999, sales of products in international markets accounted for approximately 34.5% and 21.3%, respectively, of the Company's revenues. The Company is subject to risks inherent in foreign trade, including increased credit risks, tariffs and duties, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, shipping delays and international political, regulatory and economic developments, all of which can have a significant impact on the Company's operating results. Product sales in France and Germany are made in local currencies. The Company does not engage in foreign currency hedging transactions. 15

Year 2000 Pursuant to the year 2000 issue, the Company had developed programs to address the possible exposures related to the impact of computer systems incorrectly recognizing the year 2000 or "00" as 1900. As a result of implementation of its programs, the Company did not experience any significant Year 2000 disruptions during the transition from 1999 to 2000, and since entering 2000 the Company has not experienced any significant Year 2000 disruptions to its business. In addition, the Company is not aware of any significant disruptions impacting its customers or suppliers. The Company will continue to monitor its computer system over the next several months. Costs incurred to achieve Year 2000 readiness, which included modification to existing systems, replacement or non-compliant systems and consulting resources were not material to the Company's total operating expenses. 16
