Hard Times for Take-Two Interactive Software Inc.

Take-Two shares were down $3.09, or 28%, which resulted in $7.83 in premarket trading which scared analysts as well as investors.   The weak forecast was blamed on  the disappointing sales of its "Major League Baseball" titles. The overall video game industry has weathered a tough year, with consumers cutting back on discretionary purchases.

 

The company's chairman, Strauss Zelnick, said “Take-Two won't meet its goal next year of turning an operating profit on an adjusted basis.”
