## TTWO risk-adjusted returns: Sharpe, Sortino and volatility

Over 5 years, TTWO had a Sharpe ratio of **0.05** against 0.58 for the S&P 500, so it earned less return per unit of risk than the index. Its annualized volatility was 28.5% and its beta 0.93: it tended to move about 0.9× as much as the market.

| Metric | TTWO | S&P 500 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Annual return | +1.0% | +12.0% |
| Volatility (annualized) | 28.5% | 15.5% |
| Sharpe ratio | 0.05 | 0.58 |
| Sortino ratio | 0.07 | 0.91 |
| Max drawdown (month-end) | −42.5% | −23.9% |
| Beta to the S&P 500 | 0.93 | 1.00 |

[Sharpe](https://www.exent.ai/learn/sharpe-ratio) divides return above cash by total volatility; [Sortino](https://www.exent.ai/learn/sortino-ratio) counts only downside volatility. Both use monthly returns and the 1–3 month T‑bill ETF (BIL) as the risk‑free rate.

## How TTWO behaved in past crashes

TTWO’s deepest fall in the crises below was **−79.7%** in the global financial crisis (2007–09), against −56.5% for the S&P 500. The last column turns that into money: what a $100,000 position would have lost from peak to trough.

| Crisis | TTWO | S&P 500 | Loss on $100,000 |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Global financial crisis (2007–09) | −79.7% | −56.5% | −$79,670 |
| 2018 trade-war selloff | −28.4% | −20.2% | −$28,430 |
| COVID crash (Feb–Mar 2020) | −16.1% | −34.1% | −$16,140 |
| 2022 inflation bear market | −43.0% | −25.4% | −$43,050 |
| 2025 tariff selloff | −10.7% | −19.0% | −$10,720 |

| Window | TTWO max drawdown |
| --- | --- |
| Last 1 year | −27.7% |
| Last 3 years | −27.7% |
| Last 5 years | −51.5% |
| Last 10 years | −56.1% |

Peak‑to‑trough declines from daily prices inside each crisis window. A crash replay does not predict the next crisis; it shows how much room a holding needs. Run the same replay on a whole portfolio with the [crash test](https://www.exent.ai/tools/crash-test).

## What moves with TTWO, and what doesn’t

Correlation runs from −1 (moves opposite) to +1 (moves in lockstep). Over the last 60 months of monthly returns, TTWO’s correlation with the S&P 500 was **0.51**, with the Nasdaq‑100 0.52, with long Treasuries (TLT) 0.40 and with gold (GLD) 0.00.

Adding a 5% TTWO position to an S&P 500 portfolio would have moved its 5‑year volatility from 15.5% to 15.5%.

| Least correlated large caps | Correlation | Most correlated large caps | Correlation |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | −0.15 |  | 0.55 |
|  | −0.14 |  | 0.50 |
|  | −0.13 |  | 0.50 |
|  | −0.11 |  | 0.49 |
|  | −0.11 |  | 0.48 |

Holdings that are highly correlated behave like one position in a selloff. See [how to find hidden overlap](https://www.exent.ai/resources/is-my-portfolio-diversified).

## How much is TTWO’s CEO paid?

Strauss Zelnick, TTWO’s Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, received total pay of **$403,019** for fiscal 2026, up 278.6% from $106,457 for fiscal 2025, according to the company’s [proxy statement](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/946581/000162828026049813/0001628280-26-049813-index.htm) filed with the SEC on Jul 27, 2026. The median CEO pay across the 378 S&P 500 companies Exent tracks was $17.2 million, so TTWO’s CEO earned less than most.

| Pay component | Amount | Share of total |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Salary | $1 | 0.0% |
| Other | $403,018 | 100.0% |

| Other top executives | Role | Total pay, 2026 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Lainie Goldstein | Chief Financial Officer | $11.3 million |
| Daniel Emerson | Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer | $8.0 million |
| Karl Slatoff | President | $1 |

Figures from the summary compensation table of the proxy statement; awards count at their grant‑date value, so one large multi‑year grant can make a single year stand out. [CEO pay across the S&P 500](https://www.exent.ai/resources/ceo-pay-sp-500)

## The right benchmark for TTWO

Exent matches every holding to the index with the most similar risk. For TTWO that is **QQQ** (the Nasdaq‑100). Comparing a holding with an index that carries very different risk makes good results look bad and risky ones look clever.
