Tabular List, Table Tabular List of Most Important Financial Performance Measures
The following table presents the financial performance measures that the Company considers to have been the most important
in linking Compensation Actually Paid to our NEOs for fiscal 2025 to Company performance. The measures in this table are
not ranked.

PEO Name Strauss Zelnick        
Additional 402(v) Disclosure We determined Adjusted EBITDA to be the most important financial performance measure used to link Company performance to Compensation Actually Paid to
our NEOs in fiscal 2025. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure, which is defined as GAAP net income (loss) excluding the change in deferred net revenue
and related cost of revenue, stock-based compensation, business reorganization, interest expense (income), depreciation and amortization, goodwill
impairment, amortization and impairment of intangible assets, bonus, income taxes, impact of the revaluation of the Turkish Lira against the U.S. Dollar, fair
value adjustments related to certain equity investments and acquisition-related costs. A reconciliation of GAAP net income to Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2025 is
provided in Annex A. Adjusted EBITDA may not have been the most important financial performance measure in prior fiscal years, and we may determine a
different financial performance measure to be the most important financial performance measure in future fiscal years.
