Peer group, and who names Activision Blizzard as a peer
Companies that benchmark against ATVI
1 company names ATVI as a compensation peer
- Flutter Entertainment plcFLUTFY2025
Each company listed discloses ATVI in its own benchmarking peer group, as disclosed in each company's most recent proxy statement within the last two proxy seasons. Two companies are therefore absent by design: one that named ATVI in an earlier year and no longer does, and one whose own most recent disclosure is older than the last two seasons.
