This free snapshot doesn't read filing or proxy text, so the auditor-quality and governance checks that can lower a grade were not evaluated (red flags, auditor quality, say on pay, board independence, going concern, valuation). Those checks only ever lower a grade, so the full analysis can land below the grade above but never above it — treat it as the most favourable reading, not the settled one.
Take Two Interactive Software Inc earns a D (Weak — demands caution) forensic quality grade, and its balance-sheet distress test reads 4.7, placing it in the Safe zone. 2 forensic signals were flagged in its latest SEC filings, led by return on invested capital.
What the filings flag
-1.6%
FY2026
Return on invested capital.Return on invested capital is -1.6% in the latest fiscal year, against -31.2% in FY2024, having run between -66.0% and -1.6% across FY2024–FY2026 with no direction held. After-tax operating profit was ($2.8B) in FY2024 and ($82M) in FY2026, with operating income at -67.1% of revenue in FY2024, -77.9% in FY2025 and -1.6% in FY2026. The capital base behind it came down -42% across FY2024–FY2026, from $9.1B to $5.3B, so this is a return struck on a smaller base rather than a record of money put to work. FY2024's operating profit carried a $2.3B goodwill write-off and a $105M restructuring charge that alone took about 21.3 points off that year's return, so about 21.3 of the 29.6-point rise across FY2024–FY2026 is that charge leaving the base year rather than the capital earning more. FY2025's operating profit carried a $3.5B goodwill write-off and a $106M restructuring charge that alone took about 54.9 points off that year's return; FY2025 sits between the two ends of FY2024–FY2026, so the charge shapes the path between them without moving the change across it.
$5.9B
FY2024–FY2025
Goodwill impairments.Took $5.9B of goodwill writedowns across 2 years (FY2024 ($2.3B), FY2025 ($3.5B)). Writedowns mean past acquisitions underperformed what was paid for them.
