Stock price when the opinion was issued
Keep in mind GME is a stock we have deliberately chosen not to follow too closely, as it would use up pretty much all of our time with the craziness it exudes. The financing puts it into decent financial shape, with about $1.8B net cash now. But, cash flow was negative $204M in the last 12 months. The issue comes with dilution, and even with a 6-fold increase in EPS expected from 2025 to 2026 (January year end) that still only amounts now to 6c per share, at best. So the P/E, as they say, is way up there. It still has a 21% short interest. IF GME makes an acquisition we might be more interested in it. But as it is, its revenue is about 40% lower than it was in 2018, even with higher inflationary forces. It is very hard to succeed, long term, with such declining revenue. It certainly is not a stock we would be comfortable owning, unless for pure amusement purposes ala a lottery ticket. The financing will give it flexibility, but this in itself does not guarantee a 'turn'.

The world’s largest video game retailer. They’ve done a lot of things well. To combat online gaming, they have a great trade program. If someone is tired of a game, they can take the video to this company, and get credit for the new hot game they want, and that ability is not available online. The challenge is that they are going through a transition of being known as a video game retailer to being a sort of entertainment media outlet, and are doing that in a variety of ways, including getting into selling mobile phones. Expects this will trade at a discount because the market is worried about what it will look like 5 years from now. The balance sheet looks pretty good and pays a juicy dividend of 8%.
