SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Video game publisher Take-Two Interactive Software Inc (TTWO.O) reported higher revenue in the fourth quarter, driven by strong sales of "BioShock Infinite" and "Borderlands: 2."
For the three months ended March 31, net revenue rose to $299.5 million from $148.1 million in the year-ago period.
Non-GAAP net revenue, adjusted for deferred revenue and other items, more than doubled to $303.1 million from $148.1 million over the same period. That beat the $280.1 million average estimate of analysts polled by Thomson-Reuters I/B/E/S.
Take-Two posted net income from continuing operations of $21.2 million, or 23 cents per share, compared with a net loss of $66 million, or 78 cents per share, a year ago.
Non-GAAP income was 38 cents per share, exceeding Wall Street's view of 23 cents.
Take-Two Interactive stock rose about 5 percent to $17.19 in after-hours trading after closing at $16.39 on Nasdaq.
