TAKE-TWO INTERACTIVE SOFTWARE, INC.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(in thousands, except per share amounts)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (the "Company," "we," "us," or similar pronouns) was incorporated in the state of Delaware in 1993. We are a leading developer, publisher, and marketer of interactive entertainment for consumers around the globe. We develop and publish products through our labels Rockstar Games, 2K, and Private Division, as well as Social Point, a leading developer of mobile games. Our products are designed for console systems and personal computers, including smart phones and tablets, and are delivered through physical retail, digital download, online platforms, and cloud streaming services.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and, in our opinion, reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Interim results may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. As permitted under U.S. GAAP, interim accounting for certain expenses, including income taxes, are based on full year assumptions when appropriate. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with our annual Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019.
Certain immaterial reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting for Leases
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance related to the accounting for leases codified under Topic 842, Leases. The new lease accounting standard replaces all current U.S. GAAP guidance on this topic. The new standard, among other things, requires a lessee to classify a lease as either an operating or financing lease and to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset for its leases. On April 1, 2019, we adopted the new lease accounting standard using the alternative transition approach provided in ASU 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842) - Targeted Improvements,” which allows initial application of the new standard using the modified retrospective method.
As part of the adoption, the new lease accounting standard allows a number of practical expedients and exemptions. At transition, we elected the following:

• | The package of practical expedients, which allows us to carryforward our historical lease classification, our assessment of whether a contract is or contains a lease and our initial direct costs for any leases that exist prior to adoption of the new standard;

• | The practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from the related lease components; and

• | The exemption to not apply the balance sheet recognition requirements for leases with a lease term of 12 months or less and instead expense those costs on a straight-line basis over the lease term or in the period in which the obligation is incurred, if such costs are variable.

As a result of the adoption, we have updated our significant accounting policy disclosure as set forth below to include our accounting policy under Topic 842 for transactions from April 1, 2019 and thereafter:
8

Leases
We determine if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. If there is an identified asset in the contract (either explicitly or implicitly) and we have control over its use, the contract is (or contains) a lease. In certain of our lease arrangements, primarily those related to our data center arrangements, judgment is required in determining if a contract contains a lease. For these arrangements, there is judgment in evaluating if the arrangement provides us with an asset that is physically distinct, or that represents substantially all of the capacity of the asset, and if we have the right to direct the use of the asset. Lease assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Included in the lease liability are future lease payments that are fixed, in-substance fixed, or payments based on an index or rate known at the commencement date of the lease. Variable lease payments are recognized as lease expenses as incurred. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made prior to commencement, initial direct costs incurred, and lease incentives received. All ROU assets are reviewed for impairment.
As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we generally use our incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of future lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate represents the rate required to borrow funds over a similar term to purchase the leased asset and is based on an unsecured borrowing rate and risk-adjusted to approximate a collateralized rate at the commencement date of the lease.
In determining our lease liability, the lease term includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise such option. For operating leases, the lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease modifications result in remeasurement of the lease liability. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet, and we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Impact of adoption
As a result of adopting Topic 842, the following adjustments, including reclassifying prepaid and deferred rent to ROU, were made to our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at April 1, 2019:

|  | March 31, 2019 |  | Adjustments |  | April 1, 2019
ASSETS |  |  |  |  |  |
Prepaid expenses and other |  | $ | 186,688 |  |  | $ | (792 | ) |  | $ | 185,896 |
Right-of-use assets |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 118,799 |  |  | $ | 118,799 |
LIABILITIES AND STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY |  |  |  |  |  |
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities |  | $ | 1,035,695 |  |  | $ | (2,976 | ) |  | $ | 1,032,719 |
Lease liabilities |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 18,937 |  |  | $ | 18,937 |
Non-current lease liabilities |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 122,041 |  |  | $ | 122,041 |
Other long-term liabilities |  | $ | 229,633 |  |  | $ | (19,995 | ) |  | $ | 209,638 |

The adoption of Topic 842 did not have an impact on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operation or Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting for Fair Value Measurement
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements by removing, modifying, or adding certain disclosures. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning December 15, 2019 (April 1, 2020 for the Company), with early adoption permitted. Certain disclosures in ASU 2018-13 are required to be applied on a retrospective basis and others on a prospective basis. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, the additions to our deferred revenue balance were due primarily to cash payments received or due in advance of satisfying our performance obligations, while the reductions to our deferred revenue balance were due primarily to the recognition of revenue upon fulfillment of our performance obligations, both of which were in the ordinary course of business.
During the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, $234,411 and $183,644, respectively, of revenue was recognized that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the period. During the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, $564,833 and $424,129, respectively, of revenue was recognized that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the period. As of September 30, 2019, the aggregate amount of contract revenue allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations is $1,074,206, which includes our deferred revenue balances and amounts to be invoiced and recognized in future periods. We expect to recognize approximately $991,328 of this balance as revenue over the next 12 months, and the remainder thereafter. This balance does not include an estimate for variable consideration arising from sales-based royalty license revenue in excess of the contractual minimum guarantee.
As of September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, our contract asset balances were $80,501 and $57,643, respectively, which are recorded within Prepaid expenses and other in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
3. MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
In November 2017, we entered into a new management agreement (the "2017 Management Agreement"), with ZelnickMedia Corporation ("ZelnickMedia") that replaces our previous agreement with ZelnickMedia and pursuant to which ZelnickMedia provides financial and management consulting services through March 31, 2024. The 2017 Management Agreement became effective January 1, 2018. As part of the 2017 Management Agreement, Strauss Zelnick, the President of ZelnickMedia, continues to serve as Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Karl Slatoff, a partner of ZelnickMedia, continues to serve as President of the Company. The 2017 Management Agreement provides for an annual management fee of $3,100 over the term of the agreement and a maximum annual bonus opportunity of $7,440 over the term of the agreement, based on the Company achieving certain performance thresholds.
In consideration for ZelnickMedia's services, we recorded consulting expense (a component of General and administrative expenses) of $1,705 and $1,705 during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $3,375 and $3,410
11

Table of Contents
during the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. We recorded stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock units granted to ZelnickMedia, which is included in General and administrative expenses, of $5,956 and $5,682 during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $11,501 and $10,199 during the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
In connection with the 2017 Management Agreement, we have granted restricted stock units as follows:

| Six Months Ended September 30,
| 2019 |  | 2018
Time-based | 92 |  |  | 86 |
Market-based(1) | 168 |  |  | 158 |
Performance-based(1) |  |  |  |  |
IP | 28 |  |  | 27 |
Recurrent Consumer Spending ("RCS") | 28 |  |  | 26 |
Total—Performance-based | 56 |  |  | 53 |
Total Restricted Stock Units | 316 |  |  | 297 |

_______________________________________________________________________________

(1) | Represents the maximum number of shares eligible to vest.

Time-based restricted stock units granted in fiscal year 2020 will vest on April 13, 2021, and those granted in fiscal year 2019 will vest on April 13, 2020, in each case provided that the 2017 Management Agreement has not been terminated prior to such vesting date.
Market-based restricted stock units granted in fiscal year 2020 are eligible to vest on April 13, 2021, and those granted in fiscal year 2019 are eligible to vest on April 13, 2020, in each case provided that the 2017 Management Agreement has not been terminated prior to such vesting date. Market-based restricted stock units are eligible to vest based on the Company's Total Shareholder Return (as defined in the relevant grant agreement) relative to the Total Shareholder Return (as defined in the relevant grant agreement) of the companies that constitute the NASDAQ Composite Index as of the grant date measured over a two-year period. To earn the target number of market-based restricted stock units (which represents 50% of the number of the market-based restricted stock units set forth in the table above), the Company must perform at the 50th percentile, with the maximum number of market-based restricted stock units earned if the Company performs at the 75th percentile.
Performance-based restricted stock units granted in fiscal year 2020 are eligible to vest on April 13, 2021, and those granted in fiscal year 2019 are eligible to vest on April 13, 2020, in each case provided that the 2017 Management Agreement has not been terminated prior to such vesting date. The performance-based restricted stock units, of which 50% are tied to "IP" and 50% to "RCS" (as defined in the relevant grant agreement), are eligible to vest based on the Company's achievement of certain performance metrics (as defined in the relevant grant agreement) of either individual product releases of "IP" or "RCS" measured over a two-year period. The target number of performance-based restricted stock units that may be earned pursuant to these grants is equal to 50% of the grant amounts set forth in the above table (the numbers in the table represent the maximum number of performance-based restricted stock units that may be earned). At the end of each reporting period, we assess the probability of each performance metric and upon determination that certain thresholds are probable, we record expense for the unvested portion of the shares of performance-based restricted stock units.
The unvested portion of time-based, market-based and performance-based restricted stock units held by ZelnickMedia were 613 and 526 as of September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, respectively. 209 restricted stock units previously granted to ZelnickMedia vested and 20 restricted stock units were forfeited by ZelnickMedia during the six months ended September 30, 2019.
4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The carrying amounts of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities, approximate fair value because of their short maturities.
We follow a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of "observable inputs" and minimize the use of "unobservable inputs." The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
12

Table of Contents

• | Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• | Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

• | Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The table below segregates all assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (which is measured at least annually) into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to determine the fair value at the measurement date.

Total short-term investments | $ | 743,892 |  |  | $ | 769 |  |  | $ | (176 | ) |  | $ | 744,485 |

Based on our review of investments with unrealized losses, we did not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of September 30, 2019 or March 31, 2019. We do not intend to sell any of our investments with unrealized losses, nor is it more likely than not that we will be required to sell those investments.
The following table summarizes the contracted maturities of our short-term investments at September 30, 2019:

Total short-term investments | $ | 741,301 |  |  | $ | 742,613 |

6. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
Our risk management strategy includes the use of derivative financial instruments to reduce the volatility of earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We do not enter into derivative financial contracts for speculative or trading purposes. We recognize derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, and we measure those instruments at fair value. We classify cash flows from derivative transactions as cash flows from operating activities in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Foreign currency forward contracts
The following table shows the gross notional amounts of foreign currency forward contracts:

| September 30, 2019 |  | March 31, 2019
Forward contracts to sell foreign currencies | $ | 211,668 |  |  | $ | 116,590 |
Forward contracts to purchase foreign currencies | 40,512 |  |  | 87,793 |

For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we recorded a gain of $2,210 and a loss of $247, respectively, and for the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 we recorded a loss of $1,087 and $2,157, respectively, related to foreign currency forward contracts in Interest and other, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Our foreign currency exchange forward contracts are not designated as hedging instruments under hedge accounting and are used to reduce the impact of foreign currency on certain balance sheet exposures and certain revenue and expense. These instruments are generally short-term in nature, with typical maturities of less than one year, and are subject to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
Cross-currency swaps
We entered into a cross-currency swap agreement in August 2017 related to an intercompany loan that has been designated and accounted for as a cash flow hedge of foreign currency exchange risk. The intercompany loan is related to the acquisition of Social Point. As of September 30, 2019, the notional amount of the cross-currency swap is $115,641. This cross-currency swap mitigates the exposure to fluctuations in the U.S. dollar-euro exchange rate related to the intercompany loan. The critical terms
15

Table of Contents
of the cross-currency swap agreement correspond to the intercompany loan and both mature at the same time in 2027; as such, there was no ineffectiveness during the period.
Changes in the fair value of this cross-currency swap are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and offset the change in value of interest and principal payment as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates. Resulting gains or losses from the cross-currency swap are reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings to completely offset foreign currency transaction gains and losses recognized on the intercompany loan. We recognize the difference between the U.S. dollar interest payments received from the swap counterparty and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the euro interest payments made to the swap counterparty in Interest and other, net on our Consolidated Statement of Operations. There are no credit-risk related contingent features associated with these swaps.
7. INVENTORY
Inventory balances by category were as follows:

| September 30, 2019 |  | March 31, 2019
Finished products | $ | 34,408 |  |  | $ | 24,847 |
Parts and supplies | 4,885 |  |  | 3,353 |
Inventory | $ | 39,293 |  |  | $ | 28,200 |

Estimated product returns included in inventory at September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 were $347 and $491, respectively.
8. SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS AND LICENSES

10. DEBT
Credit Agreement
On February 8, 2019, we entered into an unsecured Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement runs through February 8, 2024. The Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured five-year revolving credit facility with commitments of $200,000, including sublimits for (i) the issuance of letters of credit in an aggregate face amount of up to $25,000 and (ii) borrowings and letters of credit denominated in Pounds Sterling, Euros and Canadian Dollars in an aggregate principal
16

Table of Contents
amount of up to $25,000. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains uncommitted incremental capacity permitting the incurrence of up to an additional $250,000 in term loans or revolving credit facilities.
Loans under the New Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate of (a) 0.250% to 0.750% above a certain base rate (5.50% at September 30, 2019) or (b) 1.125% to 1.750% above LIBOR (approximately 2.02% at September 30, 2019), which rates are determined by reference to our consolidated total net leverage ratio. We had no outstanding borrowings at September 30, 2019.
Information related to availability on our Credit Agreement was as follows:

| September 30, 2019 |  | March 31, 2019
Available borrowings | $ | 198,336 |  |  | $ | 198,336 |
Outstanding letters of credit | 1,664 |  |  | 1,664 |

We recorded interest expense and fees related to the Credit Agreement of $84 and $166 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, and $111 and $221 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, under a prior credit arrangement, which was terminated on the same day that we entered into the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement also includes, among other terms and conditions, maximum leverage ratio, minimum cash reserves and, in certain circumstances, minimum interest coverage ratio financial covenants, as well as limitations on us and each of our subsidiaries’ ability to: create, incur, assume or be liable for indebtedness; dispose of assets outside the ordinary course; acquire, merge or consolidate with or into another person or entity; create, incur or allow any lien on any of its property; make investments; or pay dividends or make distributions, in each case subject to certain exceptions. In addition, the Credit Agreement provides for certain events of default such as nonpayment of principal and interest when due thereunder, breaches of representations and warranties, noncompliance with covenants, acts of insolvency and default on indebtedness held by third parties (subject to certain limitations and cure periods).
11. EARNINGS PER SHARE ("EPS")
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

| Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Six Months Ended September 30,
| 2019 |  | 2018 |  | 2019 |  | 2018

Net income | $ | 71,815 |  |  | $ | 25,367 |  |  | $ | 118,095 |  |  | $ | 97,060 |
Weighted average shares outstanding—basic | 113,117 |  |  | 113,735 |  |  | 112,869 |  |  | 113,339 |
Basic earnings per share | $ | 0.63 |  |  | $ | 0.22 |  |  | $ | 1.05 |  |  | $ | 0.86 |
Computation of Diluted earnings per share: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Net income | $ | 71,815 |  |  | $ | 25,367 |  |  | $ | 118,095 |  |  | $ | 97,060 |
Weighted average shares outstanding—basic | 113,117 |  |  | 113,735 |  |  | 112,869 |  |  | 113,339 |
Add: dilutive effect of common stock equivalents | 960 |  |  | 2,360 |  |  | 1,056 |  |  | 2,462 |
Weighted average common shares outstanding—diluted | 114,077 |  |  | 116,095 |  |  | 113,925 |  |  | 115,801 |
Diluted earnings per share | $ | 0.63 |  |  | $ | 0.22 |  |  | $ | 1.04 |  |  | $ | 0.84 |

Certain of our unvested stock-based awards (including restricted stock units and restricted stock awards) are considered participating securities since these securities have non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents during the contractual period of the award and thus requires the two-class method of computing EPS. As of September 30, 2019, we have no material participating securities outstanding.
During the six months ended September 30, 2019, 1,501 restricted stock awards vested, we granted 716 unvested restricted stock awards, and 66 unvested restricted stock awards were forfeited.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
We have entered into various agreements in the ordinary course of business that require substantial cash commitments over the next several years. Other than agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business and in addition to the agreements requiring known cash commitments as reported in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, we did not have any significant changes to our commitments since March 31, 2019.
Legal and Other Proceedings
We are, or may become, subject to demands and claims (including intellectual property claims) and are involved in routine litigation in the ordinary course of business which we do not believe to be material to our business or financial condition or results of operations. We have appropriately accrued amounts related to certain of these claims and legal and other proceedings. While it is reasonably possible that a loss may be incurred in excess of the amounts accrued in our financial statements, we believe that such losses, unless otherwise disclosed, would not be material.
14. BUSINESS REORGANIZATION
In the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, we announced and initiated actions to implement a strategic reorganization at one of our labels (the "2018 Plan"). In connection with this initiative, we recorded business reorganization expense of $327 and $713 during the three and six months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, due to updating estimates for employee separation costs and did not make any payments related to these reorganization activities. As of September 30, 2019, $3,869 remained accrued for in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $3,116 in Other non-current liabilities. Although we may record additional expense or benefit in future periods to true-up estimates, we do not expect to incur additional reorganization costs in connection with the 2018 Plan.
15. INCOME TAXES
The provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2019 is based on our projected annual effective tax rate for fiscal year 2020, adjusted for specific items that are required to be recognized in the period in which they are incurred.

Table of Contents
The provision for income taxes was $11,059 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $5,594 for the prior year period.
When compared to the statutory rate of 21%, the effective tax rate of 13.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily due to tax benefits of $3,209 as a result of tax credits anticipated to be utilized and $1,402 due to geographic mix of earnings.
The provision for income taxes for the six months ended September 30, 2019 is based on our projected annual effective tax rate for fiscal year 2020, adjusted for specific items that are required to be recognized in the period in which they are incurred. The provision for income taxes was $26,934 for the six months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $11,348 for the prior year period.
When compared to the statutory rate of 21%, the effective tax rate of 18.6% for the six months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily due to a tax benefit of $11,749 from changes in unrecognized tax benefits due to audit settlements, a benefit of $6,026 as a result of tax credits anticipated to be utilized, and a benefit of $3,170 from our geographic mix of earnings. To a lesser extent the rate was also affected by excess tax benefits from employee stock-based compensation. These benefits were partially offset by a tax expense of $19,826 from the reversal of net deferred tax benefits relating to the Altera case, discussed below.
On July 27, 2015, the U.S. Tax Court issued an opinion in Altera Corp. v. Commissioner, which concluded that related parties in an intercompany cost-sharing arrangement are not required to share costs related to stock-based compensation. In February 2016, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service appealed the decision to the U.S Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. On June 7, 2019, the Ninth Circuit reversed the 2015 decision of the U.S. Tax Court. As a result of this decision, we are no longer reflecting a net tax benefit within our financial statements related to the removal of stock-based compensation from our intercompany cost-sharing arrangement. During the six months ended September 30, 2019, we removed the deferred tax asset and a deferred tax liability associated with this matter from our financial statements, resulting in a cumulative net discrete income tax expense of $19,826. On July 22, 2019, the taxpayer requested a rehearing before the full Ninth Circuit and may subsequently appeal from the Ninth Circuit to the U.S. Supreme Court. As a result, the final outcome of the case is uncertain. We will continue to monitor ongoing developments of this matter and potential impacts to our financial statements.
In addition, on June 21, 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair, which overturned previous case law that precluded states from requiring retailers to collect and remit sales and use tax collection on sales made to in-state customers unless the retailer had physical presence in the state. Although this case is limited to sales tax collection obligations, we continue to monitor the potential impact of this decision on our state income tax footprint.
We are regularly examined by domestic and foreign taxing authorities. Examinations may result in tax assessments in excess of amounts claimed and the payment of additional taxes. We believe our tax positions comply with applicable tax law, and that we have adequately provided for reasonably foreseeable tax assessments. It is possible that settlement of audits or the expiration of the statute of limitations may have an impact on our effective tax rate in future periods.
16. LEASES
Our lease arrangements are primarily for (1) corporate, administrative, and development studio offices and (2) data centers and server equipment. Our existing leases have remaining lease terms ranging from one to thirteen years. In certain instances, such leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that generally extend the lease term by one to five years for each option. The exercise of lease renewal options is generally at our sole discretion. Additionally, the majority of our leases are classified as operating leases.

Overview
Our Business
We are a leading developer, publisher and marketer of interactive entertainment for consumers around the globe. We develop and publish products through our labels Rockstar Games, 2K, and Private Division, as well as Social Point, a leading developer of mobile games. Our products are currently designed for console gaming systems, such as Sony's PlayStation®4 ("PS4"), Microsoft's Xbox One® ("Xbox One"), or Nintendo's Switch™ ("Switch"), and personal computers ("PC"), including

smartphones and tablets. We deliver our products through physical retail, digital download, online platforms, and cloud streaming services.
We endeavor to be the most creative, innovative and efficient company in our industry. Our core strategy is to capitalize on the popularity of video games by developing and publishing high-quality interactive entertainment experiences across a range of genres. We focus on building compelling entertainment franchises by publishing a select number of titles for which we can create sequels and incremental revenue opportunities through virtual currency, add-on content, and in-game purchases. Most of our intellectual property is internally owned and developed, which we believe best positions us financially and competitively. We have established a portfolio of proprietary software content for the major hardware platforms in a wide range of genres, including action, adventure, family/casual, racing, role-playing, shooter, sports and strategy, which we distribute worldwide. We believe that our commitment to creativity and innovation is a distinguishing strength, enabling us to differentiate our products in the marketplace by combining advanced technology with compelling storylines and characters that provide unique gameplay experiences for consumers. We have created, acquired, or licensed a group of highly recognizable brands to match the broad consumer demographics that we serve, ranging from adults to children and game enthusiasts to casual gamers. Another cornerstone of our strategy is to support the success of our products in the marketplace through innovative marketing programs and global distribution on platforms and through channels that are relevant to our target audience.
Our revenue is primarily derived from the sale of internally developed software titles and software titles developed by third parties. Operating margins are dependent in part upon our ability to release new, commercially successful software products and to manage effectively their development and marketing costs. We have internal development studios located in Australia, Canada, China, Czech Republic, Hungary, India, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
Software titles published by our Rockstar Games label are primarily internally developed. We expect Rockstar Games, our wholly-owned publisher of the Grand Theft Auto, Max Payne, Midnight Club, Red Dead Redemption, and other popular franchises, to continue to be a leader in the action/adventure product category and to create groundbreaking entertainment by leveraging our existing titles as well as by developing new brands. We believe that Rockstar Games has established a uniquely original, popular cultural phenomenon with its Grand Theft Auto series, which is the interactive entertainment industry's most iconic and critically acclaimed brand and has sold-in over 305 million units. The latest installment, Grand Theft Auto V, has sold in over 115 million units worldwide and includes access to Grand Theft Auto Online. On October 26, 2018, Rockstar Games launched Red Dead Redemption 2, which has been a critical and commercial success that set numerous entertainment industry records. To date, Red Dead Redemption 2 has sold-in more than 25 million units worldwide. Rockstar Games is also well known for developing brands in other genres, including the L.A. Noire, Bully, and Manhunt franchises. Rockstar Games continues to expand on our established franchises by developing sequels, offering downloadable episodes, content, and virtual currency, and releasing titles for smartphones and tablets.
Our 2K label has published a variety of popular entertainment properties across all key platforms and across a range of genres including shooter, action, role-playing, strategy, sports and family/casual entertainment. We expect 2K to continue to develop new, successful franchises in the future. 2K's internally owned and developed franchises include the critically acclaimed, multi-million unit selling BioShock, Mafia, Sid Meier's Civilization and XCOM series. 2K also publishes externally developed brands, such as Borderlands. The latest installment, Borderlands 3, launched on September 13, 2019. 2K's realistic sports simulation titles include our flagship NBA 2K series, which continues to be the top-ranked NBA basketball video game, the WWE 2K professional wrestling series, and the Golf Club.
Our Private Division label is dedicated to bringing titles from top independent developers to market and is the publisher of Kerbal Space Program. During fiscal year 2020, Private Division has released The Outer Worlds and Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey, based on new IP from renowned industry creative talent. Private Division has announced that Kerbal Space Program 2 and Disintegration are planned for release in fiscal year 2021.
Social Point develops and publishes popular free-to-play mobile games that deliver high-quality, deeply-engaging entertainment experiences, including its two most successful games, Dragon City and Monster Legends. In addition, Social Point has a robust development pipeline with a number of exciting games planned for launch in the coming years.
We are continuing to execute on our growth initiatives in Asia, where our strategy is to broaden the distribution of our existing products and expand our online gaming presence, especially in China and South Korea. 2K has secured a multi-year license from the NBA to develop an online version of the NBA simulation game in China, Taiwan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia. NBA 2K Online, our free-to-play NBA simulation game, which was co-developed by 2K and Tencent, is the top online PC sports game in China with over 47 million registered users. On August 2, 2018, 2K and Tencent commercially launched NBA 2K Online 2 in China. The title is based on the console edition of NBA 2K and includes an array of new features.
In February 2017, we expanded our relationship with the NBA through the creation of the NBA 2K League. Launched in May 2018, this groundbreaking competitive gaming league is jointly owned by us and the NBA and consists of teams operated

by actual NBA franchises. The NBA 2K League follows a professional sports league format: the inaugural season included head-to-head competition throughout a regular season, followed by a bracketed playoff system and a finals match-up that was held in August 2018. The NBA 2K League's second season finals were held in August 2019.
Trends and Factors Affecting our Business
Product Release Schedule. Our financial results are affected by the timing of our product releases and the commercial success of those titles. Our Grand Theft Auto products in particular have historically accounted for a significant portion of our revenue. Sales of Grand Theft Auto products generated 23% of our net revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2019. In October 2018, we released Red Dead Redemption 2. Sales of Red Dead Redemption products generated 13% of our net revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2019. The timing of our Grand Theft Auto or Red Dead Redemption product releases may affect our financial performance on a quarterly and annual basis.
Economic Environment and Retailer Performance. We continue to monitor economic conditions that may unfavorably affect our businesses, such as deteriorating consumer demand, pricing pressure on our products, credit quality of our receivables, and foreign currency exchange rates. Our business is dependent upon a limited number of customers that account for a significant portion of our revenue. Our five largest customers accounted for 74.8% and 75.4% of net revenue during the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. As of September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, our five largest customers comprised 66.0% and 66.6% of our gross accounts receivable, respectively, with our significant customers (those that individually comprised more than 10% of our gross accounts receivable balance) accounting for 50.0% and 55.8% of such balance at September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, respectively. We had two customers who accounted for 31.4% and 18.7%, respectively, of our gross accounts receivable as of September 30, 2019 and two customers who accounted for 40.1% and 15.7%, respectively, of our gross accounts receivable as of March 31, 2019. The economic environment has affected our customers in the past, and may do so in the future. Bankruptcies or consolidations of our large retail customers could seriously hurt our business, due to uncollectible accounts receivables and the concentration of purchasing power among the remaining large retailers. Certain of our large customers sell used copies of our games, which may negatively affect our business by reducing demand for new copies of our games. While the online and downloadable content that we now offer for certain of our titles may serve to reduce used game sales, we expect used game sales to continue to adversely affect our business.
Hardware Platforms. We derive most of our revenue from the sale of software products made for video game consoles manufactured by third parties, such as Sony's PS4, Microsoft's Xbox One, and Nintendo's Switch, which comprised 77.7% of our net revenue by product platform for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The success of our business is dependent upon the consumer acceptance of these platforms and continued growth in their installed base. When new hardware platforms are introduced, demand for software used on older platforms typically declines, which may negatively affect our business during the market transition to the new consoles. Accordingly, our strategy is to focus our development efforts on a select number of the highest quality titles for these platforms, while also expanding our offerings for emerging platforms such as tablets, smartphones and online games.
Online Content and Digital Distribution. The interactive entertainment software industry is delivering a growing amount of content through digital online delivery methods. We provide a variety of online delivered products and offerings. Virtually all of our titles that are available through retailers as packaged goods products are also available through direct digital download (from websites we own and others owned by third parties) as well as a larger selection of our catalog titles. In addition, we aim to drive ongoing engagement and incremental revenue from recurrent consumer spending, which is generated from ongoing consumer engagement and includes revenue from virtual currency, add-on content, and in-game purchases. We also publish an expanding variety of titles for tablets and smartphones, which are delivered to consumers through digital download. Our "Results of Operations" discloses that net revenue from digital online channels comprised 74.6% of our net revenue by distribution channel for the six months ended September 30, 2019. We expect online delivery of games and game offerings to continue to grow and to become an increasing part of our business over the long-term.

Operating Metric
Net Bookings
We monitor Net Bookings as a key operating metric in evaluating the performance of our business. Net Bookings is defined as the net amount of products and services sold digitally or sold-in physically during the period and includes licensing fees, merchandise, in-game advertising, strategy guides, and publisher incentives. Net Bookings were as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Six Months Ended September 30,
|  | 2019 |  | 2018 |  | Increase/ (decrease) |  | % Increase/ (decrease) |  | 2019 |  | 2018 |  | Increase/ (decrease) |  | % Increase/ (decrease)
Net Bookings |  | $ | 950,516 |  |  | $ | 583,421 |  |  | $ | 367,095 |  |  | 62.9 | % |  | $ | 1,372,756 |  |  | $ | 871,746 |  |  | $ | 501,010 |  |  | 57.5 | %

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, Net Bookings increased by $367.1 million as compared to the prior year period due primarily to Borderlands 3, which released in September 2019, Grand Theft Auto Online and Grand Theft Auto V, Red Dead Redemption 2 and Red Dead Online, and our NBA 2K franchise. For the six months ended September 30, 2019, Net Bookings increased by $501.0 million as compared to the prior year period primarily due to Borderlands 3, our NBA 2K franchise, Red Dead Redemption 2 and Red Dead Online, and Grand Theft Auto Online.

Changes in foreign currency exchange rates decreased total operating expenses by $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the prior year period.
Selling and marketing
Selling and marketing expenses increased by $55.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the prior year period, due primarily to higher advertising expenses for Borderlands 3, which released in September 2019, and Grand Theft Auto Online. The increase was also due to higher personnel expenses due to increased headcount.
General and administrative
General and administrative expenses increased by $9.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the prior year period, due to increases in (i) personnel expenses for additional headcount and (ii) IT-related expenses for cloud-based services.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 included occupancy expense (primarily rent, utilities and office expenses) of $6.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively, related to our development studios.
Research and development
Research and development expenses increased by $15.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the prior year period, due primarily to increases in (i) personnel expenses for additional headcount and (ii) production and development expenses for titles for which technological feasibility has not been established.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the prior year period, due primarily to IT infrastructure.
Business reorganization
During the three months ended September 30, 2019, business reorganization expense increased $0.3 million as a result of updating estimates for our 2018 Plan with no corresponding expense in the prior year period.
Interest and other, net
Interest and other, net was income of $8.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $5.0 million for the prior year period. The change was due primarily to higher interest income due to the nature of our investments, higher invested balances, and the rise in interest rates on those investments.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2019 is based on our projected annual effective tax rate for fiscal year 2020, adjusted for specific items that are required to be recognized in the period in which they are incurred. The provision for income taxes was $11.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to a provision for income taxes of $5.6 million for the prior year period.
When compared to the statutory rate of 21.0%, the effective tax rate of 13.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily due to tax benefits of $3.2 million as a result of tax credits anticipated to be utilized and $1.4 million due to a geographic mix of earnings.
In the prior year period, when compared to our statutory rate of 21%, the effective tax rate of 18.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was primarily due to a tax benefit of $5.1 million as a result of changes in our valuation allowance relating to temporary items and tax carryforwards anticipated to be utilized, a tax benefit of $2.2 million as a result of tax credits anticipated to be utilized, and a net tax benefit of $1.4 million for excess tax benefits from employee stock compensation, offset by a tax provision of $6.1 million due to the geographic mix of earnings. To a lesser extent, our rate was also affected by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act due to a net tax provision of $1.0 million.
The change in the effective tax rate, when compared to the prior year period's effective tax rate, is due primarily to increased benefits from our geographic mix in earnings offset by decreased benefits from changes in our valuation allowance.
We anticipate that additional excess tax benefits or shortfalls from employee stock compensation, tax credits, and changes in our geographic mix of earnings could have a significant impact on our effective tax rate in the future. In addition, we are regularly examined by domestic and foreign taxing authorities. Examinations may result in tax assessments in excess of amounts claimed

and the payment of additional taxes. We believe our tax positions comply with applicable tax law, and that we have adequately provided for reasonably foreseeable tax assessments. It is possible that settlement of audits and/or the expiration of the statute of limitations could have an impact on our effective tax rate in future periods.
The accounting for share-based compensation will increase or decrease our effective tax rate based on the difference between our share-based compensation expense and the deductions taken on our tax return, which depends on the stock price at the time of the employee award vesting. Since we recognize excess tax benefits on a discrete basis, we anticipate that our effective tax rate will vary from quarter to quarter depending on our stock price in each period.
In addition, on June 21, 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair, which overturned previous case law that precluded states from requiring retailers to collect sales tax on sales made to in-state customers unless the retailer had physical presence in the state. Although this case is limited to sales tax collection obligations, we continue to monitor the potential impact of this decision on our state income tax footprint.
Net income and earnings per share
For the three months ended September 30, 2019, net income was $71.8 million, as compared to $25.4 million in the prior year period. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2019, was $0.63, as compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.22 in the prior year period. Diluted weighted average shares of 114.1 million were 2.0 million shares lower as compared to the prior year period, due primarily to share repurchases in the last three quarters of fiscal year 2019. See Note 11 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding earnings per share.

Interest and other, net
Interest and other, net was income of $18.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to an income of $11.6 million for the prior year period. The change was due primarily to higher interest income due to the nature of our investments, higher invested balances, and the rise in interest rates on those investments.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes for the six months ended September 30, 2019 is based on our projected annual effective tax rate for fiscal year 2020, adjusted for specific items that are required to be recognized in the period in which they are incurred. The provision for income taxes was $26.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to a provision from income taxes of $11.3 million for the prior year period.
When compared to the statutory rate of 21.0%, the effective tax rate of 18.6% for the six months ended September 30, 2019 was due primarily to a tax benefit of $11.7 million from changes in unrecognized tax benefits due to audit settlements, a benefit of $6.0 million as a result of tax credits anticipated to be utilized, and a benefit of $3.2 million from our geographic mix of earnings. To a lesser extent the rate was also affected by excess tax benefits from employee stock-based compensation. These benefits were partially offset by a tax expense of $19.8 million from the reversal of net deferred tax benefits relating to the Altera case, discussed below.
In the prior year period, when compared to our blended statutory rate of 21%, the effective tax rate of 10.5% for the six months ended September 30, 2018 was primarily due to a tax benefit of $10.6 million as a result of changes in our valuation allowance relating to temporary items and tax carryforwards anticipated to be utilized, a tax benefit of $8.8 million as a result of tax credits anticipated to be utilized, and a net tax benefit of $6.9 million for excess tax benefits from employee stock compensation, offset by a tax provision of $10.6 million due to the geographic mix of earnings. To a lesser extent, our rate was also affected by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act due to a net tax provision of $3.4 million.
The change in the effective tax rate, when compared to the prior year period's effective tax rate, is due primarily to increased tax expense relating to the Altera case, discussed below, decreased benefits from changes in our valuation allowance relating to temporary items and tax carryforwards anticipated to be utilized, decreased excess tax benefits from employee stock-based compensation partially offset by increased geographic mix of earnings and increased discrete tax benefits recorded from changes in unrecognized tax benefits primarily due to expiration in statute of limitations.
We anticipate that additional excess tax benefits from employee stock compensation, tax credits, and changes in our geographic mix of earnings could have a significant impact on our effective tax rate in the future. In addition, we are regularly examined by domestic and foreign taxing authorities. Examinations may result in tax assessments in excess of amounts claimed and the payment of additional taxes. We believe our tax positions comply with applicable tax law, and that we have adequately provided for reasonably foreseeable tax assessments. It is possible that settlement of audits and/or the expiration of the statute of limitations could have an impact on our effective tax rate in future periods.
The accounting for share-based compensation will increase or decrease our effective tax rate based on the difference between our share-based compensation expense and the deductions taken on our tax return, which depends on the stock price at the time of the employee award vesting. Since we recognize excess tax benefits on a discrete basis, we anticipate that our effective tax rate will vary from quarter to quarter depending on our stock price in each period.
On July 27, 2015, the U.S. Tax Court issued an opinion in Altera Corp. v. Commissioner, which concluded that related parties in an intercompany cost-sharing arrangement are not required to share costs related to stock-based compensation. In

Table of Contents
February 2016, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service appealed the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. On June 7, 2019, the Ninth Circuit reversed the 2015 decision of the U.S. Tax Court. As a result of this decision, we are no longer reflecting a net tax benefit within our financial statements related to the removal of stock-based compensation from our intercompany cost-sharing arrangement. During the six months ended September 30, 2019, we removed the deferred tax asset and a deferred tax liability associated with this matter, resulting in a cumulative net discrete income tax expense of $19.8 million. On July 22, 2019, the taxpayer in the Altera Corp. case requested a rehearing before the full Ninth Circuit and may subsequently appeal from the Ninth Circuit to the Supreme Court. As a result, the final outcome of the case is uncertain. We will continue to monitor ongoing developments of this matter and potential impacts to our financial statements.
On June 21, 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair, which overturned previous case law that precluded states from requiring retailers to collect and remit sales tax on sales made to in-state customers unless the retailer had physical presence in the state.

Our primary cash requirements have been to fund (i) the development, manufacturing, and marketing of our published products, (ii) working capital, (iii) acquisitions, and (iv) capital expenditures. We expect to rely on cash and cash equivalents as well as on short-term investments, funds provided by our operating activities, and our Credit Agreement to satisfy our working capital needs.
Short-term Investments
As of September 30, 2019, we had $742.6 million of short-term investments, which are highly liquid in nature and represent an investment of cash that is available for current operations. From time to time, we may purchase additional short-term investments depending on future market conditions and liquidity needs.
Credit Agreement
On February 8, 2019, we entered into an unsecured Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement runs through February 8, 2024. The Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured five-year revolving credit facility with commitments of $200 million, including sublimits for (i) the issuance of letters of credit in an aggregate face amount of up to $25 million and (ii) borrowings and letters of credit denominated in Pounds Sterling, Euros and Canadian Dollars in an aggregate principal amount of up to $25 million. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains uncommitted incremental capacity permitting the incurrence of up to an additional $250 million in term loans or revolving credit facilities.
Loans under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate of (a) 0.250% to 0.750% above a certain base rate (5.50% at September 30, 2019) or (b) 1.125% to 1.750% above LIBOR (approximately 2.02% at September 30, 2019), which rates are determined by reference to our consolidated total net leverage ratio.
As of September 30, 2019, there was $198.3 million available to borrow under the Credit Agreement and we had $1.7 million of letters of credit outstanding. At September 30, 2019, we had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement.
The Credit Agreement also includes, among other terms and conditions, maximum leverage ratio, minimum cash reserves and, in certain circumstances, minimum interest coverage ratio financial covenants, as well as limitations on the Company’s and each of its subsidiaries’ ability to: create, incur, assume or be liable for indebtedness; dispose of assets outside the ordinary course; acquire, merge or consolidate with or into another person or entity; create, incur or allow any lien on any of its property; make investments; or pay dividends or make distributions, in each case subject to certain exceptions. In addition, the Credit Agreement provides for certain events of default such as nonpayment of principal and interest when due thereunder, breaches of representations and warranties, noncompliance with covenants, acts of insolvency and default on indebtedness held by third parties (subject to certain limitations and cure periods).

Financial Condition
We are subject to credit risks, particularly if any of our receivables represent a limited number of customers or are concentrated in foreign markets. If we are unable to collect our accounts receivable as they become due, it could adversely affect our liquidity and working capital position.
Generally, we have been able to collect our accounts receivable in the ordinary course of business. We do not hold any collateral to secure payment from customers. We have trade credit insurance on the majority of our customers to mitigate accounts receivable risk.
A majority of our trade receivables are derived from sales to major retailers and distributors. Our five largest customers accounted for 74.8% and 75.4% of net revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. As of September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, five customers accounted for 66.0% and 66.6% of our gross accounts receivable, respectively. Customers that individually accounted for more than 10% of our gross accounts receivable balance comprised 50% and 55.8% of such balances at September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, respectively. We had two customers who accounted for 31.4% and 18.7% of our gross accounts receivable as of September 30, 2019, respectively, and two customers who accounted for 40.1% and 15.7% of our gross accounts receivable as of March 31, 2019, respectively. Based upon performing ongoing credit evaluations, maintaining trade credit insurance on a majority of our customers and our past collection experience, we believe that the receivable balances from these largest customers do not represent a significant credit risk, although we actively monitor each customer's credit worthiness and economic conditions that may affect our customers' business and access to capital. We are monitoring the current global economic conditions, including credit markets and other factors as it relates to our customers in order to manage the risk of uncollectible accounts receivable.
We believe our current cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and projected cash flows from operations, along with availability under our Credit Agreement will provide us with sufficient liquidity to satisfy our cash requirements for working capital, capital expenditures and commitments on both a short-term and long-term basis.
As of September 30, 2019, the amount of cash and cash equivalents held outside of the U.S. by our foreign subsidiaries was $187.7 million. These balances are dispersed across various locations around the world. We believe that such dispersion meets the business and liquidity needs of our foreign affiliates. In addition, we expect for the foreseeable future to have the ability to generate sufficient cash domestically to support ongoing operations.
Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to 14,218 shares of our common stock. Under this program, we may purchase shares from time to time through a variety of methods, including in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, in accordance with applicable securities laws. Repurchases are subject to the availability of stock, prevailing market conditions, the trading price of the stock, our financial performance and other conditions. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time for any reason.
During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we did not make any repurchases of our common stock in the open market. We have repurchased a total of 10,400 shares of our common stock under the program, and as of September 30, 2019, 3,818 shares of our common stock remain available for repurchase under the share repurchase program.
Our changes in cash flows were as follows:

| Six Months Ended September 30,
(thousands of dollars) | 2019 |  | 2018
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities | $ | 144,158 |  |  | $ | (206,035 | )
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities | (36,200 | ) |  | 19,689 |
Net cash used in financing activities | (61,478 | ) |  | (217,467 | )
Effects of foreign currency exchange rates on cash and cash equivalents | (8,063 | ) |  | (9,464 | )
Net change in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash | $ | 38,417 |  |  | $ | (413,277 | )

At September 30, 2019, we had $1,430.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, compared to $1,392.0 million at March 31, 2019. The increase was due to Net cash provided by operating activities from sales of our products, partially offset by the timing of payments. This net increase was partially offset by (1) Net cash used in financing activities, which was primarily for tax payments related to net share settlements of our restricted stock awards and (2) Net cash used in investing activities primarily related to the purchases of fixed assets and business acquisitions.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments
We have entered into various agreements in the ordinary course of business that require substantial cash commitments over the next several years. Other than agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business and in addition to the agreements requiring known cash commitments as reported in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, we did not have any significant changes to our commitments since March 31, 2019.
Legal and Other Proceedings: We are, or may become, subject to demands and claims (including intellectual property claims) and are involved in routine litigation in the ordinary course of business which we do not believe to be material to our business or financial statements. We have appropriately accrued amounts related to certain of these claims and legal and other proceedings. While it is reasonably possible that a loss may be incurred in excess of the amounts accrued in our financial statements, we believe that such losses, unless otherwise disclosed, would not be material.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, we did not have any material relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial parties, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As such, we are not exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.
International Operations
Net revenue earned outside of the United States is principally generated by our operations in Europe, Asia, Australia, Canada and Latin America. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, 42.3% and 43.3%, respectively, and for the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, 41.0% and 43.1%, respectively, of our net revenue was earned outside of the United States. We are 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 effect on our operating results.
Fluctuations in Quarterly Operating Results and Seasonality
We have experienced fluctuations in quarterly and annual operating results as a result of the timing of 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 product shipment. Sales of our products are also seasonal, with peak shipments typically occurring in the fourth calendar quarter as a result of increased demand for products during the holiday season. For certain of our software products, we allocate a portion of the amount to be recognized as revenue over an estimated service period, which generally ranges from 9 to 15 months. As a result, the quarter in which we generate the highest net sales volume may be different from the quarter in which we recognize the highest amount of net revenues. Quarterly comparisons of operating results are not necessarily indicative of future operating results.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk is the potential loss arising from fluctuations in market rates and prices. Our market risk exposures primarily include fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates relates primarily to our short-term investment portfolio and variable rate debt under the Credit Agreement.
We seek to manage our interest rate risk by maintaining a short-term investment portfolio that includes corporate bonds with high credit quality and maturities less than two years. Since short-term investments mature relatively quickly and can be reinvested at the then-current market rates, interest income on a portfolio consisting of short-term securities is more subject to market fluctuations than a portfolio of longer-term maturities. However, the fair value of a short-term portfolio is less sensitive to market fluctuations than a portfolio of longer-term securities. We do not currently use derivative financial instruments in our short-term investment portfolio. Our investments are held for purposes other than trading.
As of September 30, 2019, we had $742.6 million of short-term investments, which included $361.6 million of available-for-sale securities. The available-for-sale securities were recorded at fair market value with unrealized gains or losses resulting from changes in fair value reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, in

stockholders' equity. We also had $762.0 million of cash and cash equivalents that are comprised primarily of money market funds and bank-time deposits. We determined that, based on the composition of our investment portfolio, there was no material interest rate risk exposure to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or liquidity as of September 30, 2019.
Historically, fluctuations in interest rates have not had a significant effect on our operating results. Under our Credit Agreement, outstanding balances bear interest at our election of (a) 0.250% to 0.750% above a certain base rate (5.50% at September 30, 2019), or (b) 1.125% to 1.750% above the LIBOR rate (approximately 2.02% at September 30, 2019), with the margin rate subject to the achievement of certain average liquidity levels. Changes in market rates may affect our future interest expense if there is an outstanding balance on our line of credit.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
We transact business in foreign currencies and are exposed to risks resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Accounts relating to foreign operations are translated into United States dollars using prevailing exchange rates at the relevant period end. Translation adjustments are included as a separate component of stockholders' equity. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, our foreign currency translation adjustment was a loss of $12.6 million and a gain of $2.5 million, respectively, and for the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we recognized a foreign currency translation adjustment loss of $21.4 million and a loss of $24.3 million, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we recognized a foreign currency exchange transaction loss of $1.7 million and a loss of $0.9 million, respectively, and for the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we recognized a foreign currency exchange transaction loss of $2.7 million and a gain of $0.6 million, respectively, included in interest and other, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Balance Sheet Hedging Activities
We use foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with non-functional currency denominated cash balances and intercompany funding loans, non-functional currency denominated accounts receivable and non-functional currency denominated accounts payable. These transactions are not designated as hedging instruments and are accounted for as derivatives whereby the fair value of the contracts is reported as either assets or liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value are reported in Interest and other, net, in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. We do not enter into derivative financial contracts for speculative or trading purposes. At September 30, 2019, we had $211.7 million of forward contracts outstanding to sell foreign currencies in exchange for U.S. dollars and $40.5 million of forward contracts outstanding to buy foreign currencies in exchange for U.S. dollars, all of which have maturities of less than one year. At March 31, 2019, we had $116.6 million of forward contracts outstanding to sell foreign currencies in exchange for U.S. dollars and $87.8 million of forward contracts outstanding to buy foreign currencies in exchange for U.S. dollars, all of which have maturities of less than one year. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we recorded a gain of $2.2 million and a loss of $0.2 million, respectively, and for the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we recorded a loss of $1.1 million and a gain of $2.2 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2019, the fair value of these outstanding forward contracts was an immaterial gain and was included in Prepaid expenses and other, and, as of March 31, 2019, the fair value of outstanding forward contracts was an immaterial loss and was included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities. The fair value of these outstanding forward contracts is estimated based on the prevailing exchange rates of the various hedged currencies as of the end of the period.
Our hedging programs are designed to reduce, but do not entirely eliminate, the effect of currency exchange rate movements. We believe the counterparties to these foreign currency forward contracts are creditworthy multinational commercial banks and that the risk of counterparty nonperformance is not material. Notwithstanding our efforts to mitigate some foreign currency exchange rate risks, there can be no assurance that our hedging activities will adequately protect us against the risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, 42.3% of our revenue was generated outside the United States. Using sensitivity analysis, a hypothetical 10% increase in the value of the U.S. dollar against all currencies would decrease revenues by 4.2%, while a hypothetical 10% decrease in the value of the U.S. dollar against all currencies would increase revenues by 4.2%. In our opinion, a substantial portion of this fluctuation would be offset by cost of goods sold and operating expenses incurred in local currency.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act") were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
34

Table of Contents
Commission rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, which were identified in connection with management's evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Inherent limitations to any system of disclosure controls and procedures include, but are not limited to, the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of such controls by one or more persons. In addition, we have designed our system of controls based on certain assumptions, which we believe are reasonable, about the likelihood of future events, and our system of controls may therefore not achieve its desired objectives under all possible future events.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are, or may become, subject to demands and claims (including intellectual property claims) and are involved in routine litigation in the ordinary course of business which we do not believe to be material to our business or financial statements. We have appropriately accrued amounts related to certain of these claims and legal and other proceedings. While it is reasonably possible that a loss may be incurred in excess of the amounts accrued in our financial statements, we believe that such losses, unless otherwise disclosed, would not be material.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the Risk Factors disclosed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Share Repurchase Program—In January 2013, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 7,500 shares of our common stock. On May 13, 2015, our Board of Directors approved an increase of 6,718 shares to our share repurchase program, increasing the total number of shares that we are permitted to repurchase to 14,218 shares of our common stock. The authorizations permit us to purchase shares from time to time through a variety of methods, including in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, in accordance with applicable securities laws. Repurchases are subject to the availability of stock, prevailing market conditions, the trading price of the stock, our financial performance and other conditions. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time for any reason. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we did not make any repurchases of our common stock in the open market. As of September 30, 2019, we have repurchased a total of 10,400 shares of our common stock under this program and 3,818 shares of common stock remain available for repurchase under our share repurchase program. The table below details the share repurchases made by us during the three months ended September 30, 2019:
