The company states that Turtle Beach has been the market leader in console gaming audio for over a decade. This focus on audio, combined with controllers, PC peripherals, and simulation accessories, outlines the core of its product mix as disclosed in its public communications.
Turtle Beach has also grown through acquisition. Company news releases report that Turtle Beach Corporation acquired Performance Designed Products LLC (PDP) in 2024. PDP is referenced in connection with the broader Turtle Beach group in regulatory filings, including as a borrower under the company’s credit agreement. This acquisition is part of the company’s expansion within gaming accessories.
From a corporate and capital structure perspective, Turtle Beach is incorporated in Nevada, as noted in multiple Form 8-K filings. Its headquarters are located in San Diego, California, with the city and state appearing in SEC filings as the location of its principal offices.

Turtle Beach’s public filings and earnings releases highlight that it uses both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures. In particular, the company reports Adjusted EBITDA, which it defines as net income or loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and certain non-recurring special items it does not consider representative of core operations. Management states that this measure is used internally for evaluating operating performance, financial planning, and incentive compensation.
Recent earnings releases describe the company’s focus on cost optimization initiatives, gross margin improvement, and capital allocation. Turtle Beach has discussed actions such as refinancing its debt facilities to lower its cost of capital and using share repurchase authorizations to buy back common stock. For example, company news releases and an 8-K dated August 14, 2025, describe a stock purchase agreement under which Turtle Beach repurchased shares from an existing shareholder, with additional shares sold to an investment firm affiliated with a board member. These activities are presented as part of the company’s capital allocation framework.
In addition, Turtle Beach has adopted a limited duration stockholder rights plan, sometimes referred to as a rights plan, as disclosed in a June 9, 2025 news release. The company states that this plan is intended to enable all stockholders to realize the potential value of their investment and to protect against certain accumulation of shares that the board may determine is not in the best interests of the company and its stockholders. The plan includes thresholds related to beneficial ownership of common stock and outlines potential rights to purchase additional shares under specified conditions.
Turtle Beach participates in investor conferences and earnings calls, where its leadership discusses financial performance and outlook. Public announcements reference participation in conferences such as Oppenheimer’s technology and consumer growth events, as well as quarterly earnings webcasts. These communications provide additional context on the company’s operations, strategy, and views on the gaming accessories market, while also including the standard cautionary notes on forward-looking statements.
Through its Turtle Beach and Victrix brands, and with the integration of Performance Designed Products LLC, the company’s disclosed focus remains on gaming headsets, controllers, PC gaming peripherals, and simulation accessories. Its regulatory filings and press releases emphasize financial discipline, the use of non-GAAP metrics like Adjusted EBITDA, and capital structure management through refinancing and share repurchase programs.
