GameStop Corp. (NYSE:GME) ("GameStop" or the "Company") today announced certain preliminary unaudited financial information for the second quarter ended August 1, 2026. The Company is providing this preliminary information in connection with the amendments to its convertible notes exchange announced separately today.

On a preliminary basis for the 13 weeks ended August 1, 2026 compared to the 13 weeks ended August 2, 2025:

  • Net sales are expected to be in the range of $780 million to $800 million compared to $972.2 million in the prior year’s second quarter. The decrease primarily reflects the prior-year launch of Nintendo Switch 2, planned store closures, and the divestiture of the Company's France operations.
  • Operating income is expected to be in the range of $150 million to $170 million, compared to $66.4 million in the prior year’s second quarter.
  • Net income is expected to be in the range of $290 million to $310 million, compared to net income of $168.6 million in the prior year’s second quarter.
  • Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities are expected to be in the range of $5.050 billion to $5.070 billion, compared to $8.694 billion at the close of the prior year’s second quarter.
  • During the quarter, the Company converted its previously disclosed derivative position related to eBay Inc. into a direct equity investment, resulting in a decrease in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. The Company's net income for the quarter includes approximately $238 million of net gains related to its eBay Inc. derivative asset and equity investment, partially offset by a loss of approximately $75 million on digital assets and related receivables. As of August 1, 2026, the Company held approximately 43.4 million shares of eBay common stock with a fair value of approximately $4.947 billion. The Company expects to release its complete second quarter results on September 8, 2026.
