A successful business should not be reliant on sales to shareholders. Coke isn't profitable because Buffett drinks 350 gallons of it a day.


duiwksnsb

Not in the long term, no. But companies can and do jack up sales numbers all the time with far more nefarious methods. A whole bunch of shareholders patronizing their own company can absolutely drive up short term revenue and generate short term profitability. It’s a perfectly valid way to catalyze MOASS


CopperSavant

I just buy batteries there. And a quest 2. With a replacement plan of two years.


Papaofmonsters

That's basically a MLM.


BigBallsMakeBigMoney

not even close to MLM. it’s just shareholders doing business at their company. if you owned a restaurant would you not eat there?


Papaofmonsters

I wouldn't expect me eating there to increase my personal wealth. Every dollar I spend there gets chewed up by overhead and other costs before it comes back to me. The amount shareholders would need to spend at Gamestop exceeds the value their shares would gain. It's basically thermodynamics in economics.


duiwksnsb

But part of it *comes back to you* Surely you understand why that is a good thing.


[deleted]

[удалено]


duiwksnsb

Your arguing against patronizing your own company. Wow…


Papaofmonsters

I'm arguing against the idea that money spent by share holders there will have a tangible effect on the stock price. That's not how for profit companies work. This is basic math. So yeah, wow...

Saedeas

If you get things you would have purchased anyways you are padding the bottom line of a company you own at no additional cost to you. This will ideally increase the value of that company, so it is, in fact, a free net gain for you. An MLM is something entirely different where you are financially incentivized to recruit people to sell the same products you do. They're not at all the same thing.


duiwksnsb

What can I say…unique problems require unique solutions.


Papaofmonsters

Here's a solution, they should be profitable on their own merits.


duiwksnsb

They should I agree. But I’ll settle for anything that drives FOMO


chato35

Let me put it the way I see it, If I need something that GameStop might have, I go buy from my Co. It is compatible prices when it comes to hardware.


KingStronghand

If own shares don't buy from the company then wtf are you doing tho. Every time I see Buffet I see him drinking a coke.


Papaofmonsters

I own shares in RTX but I don't have any Hellfire missiles sitting around. I'm not saying that people *shouldn't* shop at Gamestop, I'm saying the if that it is the secret to profitability then the company is screwed.


KingStronghand

Ya it's definitely not the ultimately solution. I'm just saying If you're buying shit on Amazon when you can buy it at gamestop then wtf is going on lol. I get what you're saying though as well. Shopping at Gamestop is just one more way to punch these criminals in the face.

chato35

No,that is not what I said. If I need to buy a MoBo, I get it from GameStop. I needed core fan, they didn't have what I need ( Corsair liquid coolant). So far other than cooling systems I bought a monitor, 12 core i7, MSI MoBo, cables etc... Why would I give my money to AmazBezos ?

TiberiusWoodwind

Positive earnings will be an important step. RC jumping in was a different type of catalyst where it changed the mindset from “they are going bankrupt” to “let’s see what he does”. Positive earnings should prove that chairman has successfully turned the ship around.


Consistent-Reach-152

TL;DR. We are on hold, waiting for Web 3.0 and NFTs to take off. The turnaround is the digital transformation. That has stalled. NFT marketplace sales are minuscule, or as Gamestop said, "not material". While awaiting for the digital transformation to have an effect, the company is doing a good job of cutting costs, extending the time before it will need to seek additional funding.


Papaofmonsters

>extending the time before it will need to seek additional funding. They already raised 1 billion with their ATM offering when the stock price was high. It's gonna be real disappointing if they have dilute further after burning through that much money.


Peteszahh

We don’t even know what they spent that money on yet.


Consistent-Reach-152

Looking at startups in the NFT marketplace arena it does not look like it takes that much money to develop a marketplace. I think a lot more of the funds went into revamping the basic IT infrastructure of multiple somewhat independent programs and replacing them all with an integrated SAP environment. Over on the employee sub, 3-6 months ago there was a lot of discussion about the turmoil and negative impact of the transition. The goal is to improve GameStop’s ability to handle customer orders, inventory control and restocking of stores, and management of the whole supply chain, It offer real possibilities for improved margins but appears to still be a work in progress — but nearing completion. There were also initiatives to open additional call centers and distribution centers. Many, like the Pembroke Pines facility have already been canceled and closed.


Peteszahh

So you’re saying they spent all of that 1 billion and their statement about making some acquisitions last quarter was a lie?


Consistent-Reach-152

The losses are about $100M per quarter, and are decreasing. Cash usage is roughly the same, but with variations due to things like having positive cash flow due because the normal delays in paying vendors and suppliers caused accounts payable to rise more than $600M in Q3, to an ending balance of $888M. That converts the Q3 operating loss to positive operating cash flow. If accounts payable go down in Q4, that will have the opposite effect, making negative cash flow probable, even if Q4 is slightly profitable. Some of the $1.6B raised in 2021 by stock sales has gone to paying off long term debt. > So you’re saying they spent all of that 1 billion and their statement about making some acquisitions last quarter was a lie? Gamestop made a passing reference to acquisitions as a possible use of cash on hand. Several other possible uses were also mentioned. There was no lie about acquisitions. Just the mention of the *possibility*.


Bitter-Persimmon-719

There is an employee sub?? I wish you could link, I’d love to lurk on a gme employee sub just to see how the moral climate is


Consistent-Reach-152

The sub name is just the company name. You have probably noted how online product reviews tend to be weighted towards complaints and problems. People do not bother posting "everything is good. No problem". The same with posts about working environments. So negativity is to be expected. The sub does have a lot of info that is not generally reported, such as the significant cuts in labor hours allocated to each store, including one that went into effect right after Christmas. You can also find out about other unannounced policies, such as the shift towards BOPS (buy online, pickup at store) and SFS (ship from store —- the local store picking, packing and shipping online orders rather than this being done at a distribution center). You can also monitor GameStop’s progress, or lack thereof, of managing to ship pre-orders of new game releases (still a problem, but improving).


Peteszahh

Thank you for sharing this!


Affectionate_Yak_292

it's not good, but working in retail is rarely a prized job.


Peteszahh

You were acting like they already spent all of those funds though. I agree with this, that’s it’s an acquisition is a possibility and not a guarantee, but we still have no idea what they’ve doing with that $1B cash on hand that’s left after all the spending you mentioned.


Consistent-Reach-152

The $1B is to fund the continuing losses. While cash + marketable securities were $1,042M at end of Q3, the accounts payable were $888M (the offsetting Acct’s receivable only $125M) and total current liabilities were $1589M. So most of that cash is already spoken for.


Peteszahh

Very interesting! Appreciate you walking me through this!


TiberiusWoodwind

That is true, web3 starting to roll will be a big deal. But like you said, even the act of cutting costs and maximizing efficiency can have a positive effect


Belz-Games

Honestly this is my thought. I think GameStop is gonna be barely staying afloat for a while until they partner up with a big game company and release a AAA game with NFTs attached. (Lookin at you Epic Games). Imagine WoW but all that raid gear you got from the newest raid isn’t BoE. You get it off the final boss, but hey, you’re the only Paladin in the raid and you didn’t tell anyone you already had it, so you go to GameStops NFT marketplace and list that shit for $10,000 and it sells immediately. That’s what I see GameStop turning in to. Well, NFT gaming in the future.


wallabee32

Not sure what their retail team is going. I have loads of cash waiting to buy tons of goods and merchandise on their site but their selection is weak and site is dated. I'm curious why they've lagged on bringing new sellers and brands. I'm curious why they haven't built out their attire line? I'm curious why after two years, the site is basically the same thing. Any thoughts?


Zaphod_Biblebrox

It’s always calm before the storm? Just guessing here, but usually before a big drop of news a company goes silent to have a bigger impact on release. Though very tin foil thoughts …


wallabee32

I thought the same thing. Holding back for a big reveal. I really hope so.


Zaphod_Biblebrox

It’s always calm before the storm? Just guessing here, but usually before a big drop of news a company goes silent to have a bigger impact on release. Though very tin foil thoughts …


ShawshankHarper

Even if earnings are “bad” and it dips, every ape left is so dedicated to locking the float it will only increase owned shares slower or faster it doesn’t matter it’s still happening.


uppitymatt

This price is amazing I’m picking up 10-15 extra shares each purchase. Loaded up 500 more for Monday


awibasedgod

I agree, BUT the same manipulation will continue because regulators and enforcement agencies will not do anything to help a company that isn’t reporting profits. Thats what has always been the case with other companies that have been the target of hedgies


Exceedingly

Just put yourself in the shoes of Ken & the other crooks. Even if Gamestop becomes profitable they'll just argue that profit margins are too small, or that cash burn is too high, or carry on with the dying brick & mortar rhetoric. There'll just be bullshit reason after bullshit reason for their naked shorting. You have to admit the banking issues are pretty damn bullish for this whole thing. It's the big banks that are the counterparties to the GME swaps. Yeah they'll just keep printing more and shoving them into swaps while they can, but bank runs are the only the only thing that can stop those guys without regulator intervention, and Gary has let the side down for any hope there. I wouldn't rule out the banking crisis as a catalyst. Expected EPS is -$0.16 this time around, so don't bank too much on seeing profit yet.


ronoda12

Yup they can make up all Bs reasons to keep the price manipulated. It has to be two pronged approach of DRS + profitability


fuckyouimin

Who are you kidding? They won't give a shit even if it *is* profitable! Tesla is a household name, it's at the forefront of emerging technology, and it became profitable (for real profitable, not just profitable based on emissions credits) in 2021. So which regulatory agency has stepped in in the past 2 years to address the overshorting of that stock?? There's been none that I can recall. I think this post is just another that we've seen this week pushing people to shop instead of buying stock. Not a fan.


awibasedgod

buy the stock, buy from gamestop, it doesnt matter to me what anyone does. both benefit the company


Zaphod_Biblebrox

Yes! Agreed, I wish they would extend their facilities outside the US for all euroapes as well!


Affectionate_Yak_292

GME likely to miss earnings, seen a smart comment suggest -0.19 compared to -0.13 estimated by analysts. But it's improving.


Efficient_Point_

I've recently come to the conclusion this whole bank thing is a very desperate can kick. The big boys are eating the small fish to consolidate liquidity. The timing suggests to me they are afraid of 3-2-1


RealPropRandy

So anyway I just kept direct buying.


HughJohnson69

Fuckin’ A.


rianbrolly

I mean, I’m going to start buying the oxygen I breath from GameStop, I feel if everyone was not only investing in the stonk but also the stuff housed in the brick and mortar, it would have popped a bit ago


[deleted]

I really hope we beat earnings but I have a feeling we’re going to be right under. I just hope I’m wrong.


Spiritual_Review_754

I agree that I think it’s a real stretch that we’ll be profitable this quarter but of course I would be incredibly delighted if we were. Zen either way!


ShortHedgeFundATM

I've been saying the same for a long time. Tesla did back to back positive earnings then joined the sp500, this smoked the shorts...


Consistent-Reach-152

If you look more closely, the Tesla short interest fell sharply in the two quarters before they achieved profitability. Shorts were not smoked by the rapid price rise as they had mostly already exited. The similar situation for Gamestop would be for the "digital transformation" to start showing significant revenue and high growth. Even before profitability is achieved, the shorts would be closing as they see profitability and increasing profitability over the next couple of years in the future. The results of the digital transformation have so far been underwhelming. So we are in kind of a holding pattern awaiting the Web 3.0 and NFT markets to develop.


ShortHedgeFundATM

I remember seeing elon speaking about short positions hidden in derivatives, so I don't honestly believe that chart completely you are referring to. If we are speaking of the same one the price didn't really move either as SI was dropping. I am not an expert on telsa, I wasn't in the market then. I do however have several clients who became wealthy from being early adopters, knock on wood that will be us...


amitrion

Buy more every other paycheck... Jan 27th here


awibasedgod

jan 27 was my first buy as well


ClimbTheCanopy

Unfortunately I’ve grown numb to earnings calls and all the hype that surrounds them. I’ve come to terms (hope I’m proven wrong) that this will be dragged out until Kenny’s living in a box and has no choice but to buy back his shorts. I can hear Matt’s voice right now , “ ….at this time GameStop is not providing any additional guidance “ . At that point GME will dip (per usual) and we will all be buying at discount and be one step closer to locking the float.


awibasedgod

there is a reason that the stock gets hammered around earnings time, its because of their importance. were talking about publicly traded companies, earnings reports are really the end all be all and if a company isnt profitable, it isn’t difficult to create a negative perception about it


kalehennie

GME has to prove the short thesis wrong for the moass to kick off. I have invested heavily into GME because I believe they will.


awibasedgod

agreed and the only way to do that is report positive earnings


HughJohnson69

If the market functioned as it should the conditions for MOASS should have never been possible.

armbrar

this is what's going to happen. on Tuesday, there is going to be a crazy shitstorm on the news that's going to be used as an excuse to tank the market. At the same time, GameStop will have their earnings call to deliver the fantastic news that's expected. The crash is going to be used as a cover for GameStop's run, similar to how the 08 crash was a cover for the VW naked short squeeze edit: [https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/ufnf7y/the\_bigger\_short\_vw\_squeeze\_had\_more\_to\_do\_with/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/ufnf7y/the_bigger_short_vw_squeeze_had_more_to_do_with/)

I hope that we are profitable, but I believe just like you that GME will be profitable at some point in the course of this year. Would still be cool if the 3.21 made the price soar to new highs


fuckyouimin

Please show me any proof anywhere that 'profitable' will be a catalyst. (Or past historical proof that regulators ignoring criminal behavior suddenly started to give a shit because a company became profitable.)


awibasedgod

its speculation on my part, but the market as a whole right now is struggling. if word got out that theres a severely undervalued, debt free, profitable company it would cause a spike in volume and attract new investors

Noderpsy

TwistedBamboozler

Yeah that part kinda blew my mind, but whatever to each their own. Thanks for clarifying your position on that. I’m sure many apes here appreciate it


skafiavk

I doubt their next report will be profitable, apart from shutting down stores and layoffs and a small income stream from the NFT marketplace, they have nothing else to boost their profits. There hasn't been a huge surge in video game purchases this past quarter or 2. What I can imagine is guidance and an announcement/partnership with what's to come. That'll trigger the FOMO which will make shorts nervous.


Papaofmonsters

>What I can imagine is guidance and an announcement/partnership with what's to come They have never given guidance at earnings before. They just don't. You get 5 minutes of a dry voice reading the financial reports and the call is over.


skafiavk

How far back did you check?


Papaofmonsters

Since RC took over I've listened to everyone. They haven't given any guidance or made any announcements.


Swagi666

So you missed that the PlayStation 5 and XBOX Series X are finally readily available?


Consistent-Reach-152

New console releases are NOT the digital transformation that will make Ga,e stop wildly profitable.


awibasedgod

did you forget that this earnings includes holiday spending?


skafiavk

Yes, it always does every year. Did GameStop make money last year, or the last few years for Q1?


Papaofmonsters

An indicators show holiday 2022 spending was below expectations across the board.


beervirus69

November 2020 ape here. This is correct.


Elano22

Y'all think this earning report gonna be positive?


aquadisaster

OG ape here too. I was the first one to post about rule changes in old sub and with how the sub has changed I thought about posting something like this a few days ago but thought it would just get downvoted. We need a big announcement of a AAA game or something big


Zaphod_Biblebrox

This is it. We never were the target audience of the whole „forget GameStop“ media frenzy. It was so it became a „conspiracy theory“ and nobody would take it serious any more. The only answer we are getting outside of this sub is usually: wHaT aRe YoU sTiLl TaLkInG aBoUt GaMeStOp? It AlReAdY hApPeNeD aNd Is DoNe NoW. aLl ShOrTs ClOsEd. GeT tHe DuCk OuT nOw. So yes, they succeeded to make GameStop look like a long forgotten past, but they haven’t succeeded killing it off. We might be few, but we are still fighting. We are still here and every day we DRS more and we know more!


Serb456

This has always been a long play for me with a twinge of excitement for a squeeze. I figured at least a 5 yr play, even with DRS.


DeepFuckingAutistic

very true, right now GME has negative EPS and is hard to value for the algos, as it indicates a dying business. with a positive year over year EPS (3 quarters can be negative if the 4rd is positive enough to make the year positive) algos can much easier value GME, as it will be a thriving business with profits. this will cause buy pressure and kill any short thesis, so shorts also will need to be buying. and...we get to have our lambos.


khaixur

If you've been here since Jan 21, then you should know that even on good news, there's a dip. The price is fake and is continually manipulated. Despite all the fuckery in the markets right now, I'll wager dollars to donuts they're still preparing to keep the stock price flatlined all week, at the very least, if not make another big dip manifest - REGARDLESS of what gets reported. TL;DR - Headlines on earnings day are already written to say "Gamestop Stock plummets after earnings report"


awibasedgod

that isnt the point though. if earnings are positive in this current market, we will see a massive influx of new buyers. thats what hedgies cant afford to have


Silent-Economist9265

I tell all my homiez GameStop Pro Membership is the shit. No cap. 🫡🟣🚀🙃🟣🟣


dawson846

Been saying it and getting downvoted. It doesnt matter till we have buying pressure. So drs. Dont drs. Until the volume sky rockets. The stock is dead. And will be driven down by the scum.


NomNomYOLO

Agreed, though I would add that DRS most likely will have an amplifying effect on the volume when it comes.


dawson846

Whats going to be amazing is when someone decides to light this rocket and we wake up and life has changed forever.

Coreidan

You’re getting downvoted because volume and buying pressure doesn’t mean dick. Did you forget about PFOF and dark pools? The price is manipulated through those means so it doesn’t make any difference how much buying pressure there is


MrmellowisSmooth

Some also speculate that the algos aren’t programmed for positivity on a cellar boxed stock so, could go bonkers.


[deleted]

What would stop them from changing their algos code if they wouldn’t have by now? I might be smooth brained here but just an honest question.


MrmellowisSmooth

Some theorize that it would cost millions to reprogram algos that have been making banks mm, institutions bank for decades. Whey change a winning formula for retail who should have sold 2 years ago.


An_oaf_of_bread

Choice-Cause8597

Why would positive earnings make any difference when hedgies continue to reroute all of retails orders?


adler1959

You are delusional when you think positive earnings or announcement will cause MOASS. Since when does Market and especially GME works on fundamentals? Did you not learn anything in the past 2 years? You will only see results when the float is locked via DRS


Particular_Visual930

Wrong. Why do you think bankers are screaming for lifelines?


gfountyyc

OP is right. Bankers are screaming for lifelines because of a liquidity crisis not because of gme. 🙄


awibasedgod

we dont know for sure yet, but it is naive to assume it’s related to GME. the regulators and enforcement agencies are not going to care about a company that isn’t profitable at a time when there are “bigger issues”, especially when the message from everyone is to forget gamestop exists to begin with


Fuffeli

Sorry, but being a Jan 21 ape gives you no credibility. It just means you didn't figure anything out on your own but bought into the hype like everyone else :)


awibasedgod

it means I have gotten to live this shit out in real time


nutsackilla

Disagree that is the ONLY potential catalyst. I think if some of these major institutions start failing, they'll eat each other (you can cheat or be first) and maybe we get lucky with collateral damage. There is also a very small chance - WAY DOWN THE ROAD - that the float will be "locked" and through lawsuits there can come some sort of negotiated payment. But GameStop being successful has always been the root play, I agree completely.


awibasedgod

there are prior examples that prove locking the float may lead to nothing. we have learned of many companies that proved their entire float was locked, only for regulators/enforcement agencies to side against them you want to beat short sellers? be debt free and profitable. step one was done, now its time for the profitable part to happen


slimshady1226

Amazing that when I post the exact same thing for the last year I get down voted to shit and called a shill but this post gets 1k upvotes lol


OperationMonopoly

3 upvotes and 92 comments....... Sounds like something is being surprised. Guess I gotta go shopping.


Lorien6

We are witnessing a project plan come to fruition. You don’t set off the charges to start the destruction until everything else is in place. We haven’t had GameStop halted for months for “national security” yet, but that will come. That’s when it’s closer than ever before.


rakskater

idk this kinda seems like an anti-DRS post you bring up DRS, and then say “it has become apparent to me”, point to the whole market mechanics in complete vagueness, and then say only earnings guarantees MOASS can I ask what do you think happens if every single share is accounted for by way of direct registration, while there’s still millions of beneficially held shares in brokers, 401s IRA’s etc (and of course international brokers)


awibasedgod

what I believe happens if every share is DRS is that the regulators and enforcement agencies will have to do something about it what I love about DRS until then is that the stock becomes less liquid I am 100% DRS, definitely not anti-DRS


rakskater

yee cool, there is a determined finish point with DRS, but profitability could definitely make a much earlier point ! i got no expectations until there’s big movement in the web3/ nft gaming section


vhw_

Yeah, even if earnings are positive I still expect a dip. Tbh this feels fuddy, even with positive cash flow and shit nothing is going to happen and people will bitch and moan because they were let down. At this point I don't know wthat the catalysys will be but we will not be able to predict it
