GameStop Reports Third Quarter Results, A Positive Start to Fourth Quarter with November Comparable Store Sales Increasing 16.5% And Sustained Progress Toward Long-Term
Strategic Objectives

Omni-channel Capabilities Fuel 257% Increase in Global E-Commerce Sales

Operating Platform Optimization Drives $115 million, or 24% SG&A Improvement


Grapevine, Texas (December 8, 2020) - GameStop Corp. (NYSE: GME) today reported results for the third quarter ended October 31, 2020 that reflect sustained progress toward its long-term strategic objectives and a positive start to the fourth fiscal quarter following the launch of the long-awaited next generation of video game consoles.

George Sherman, GameStop’s chief executive officer, said, “Our third quarter results were in-line with our muted expectations and reflected operating during the last few months of a seven-year console cycle and a global pandemic, which pressured sales and earnings. That notwithstanding, we continued to significantly advance our strategic objectives of creating a digital-first, omni-channel ecosystem for games and entertainment and optimizing our core operations. Leveraging our omni-channel capabilities, we increased E-Commerce sales 257% – demonstrating our ability to serve our customers, wherever, whenever and however they choose to shop. Investments in improving our web properties and mobile app and enhanced fulfillment capabilities contributed to our E-Commerce channel’s sales contribution rising to nearly 25% year to date, well-above historical mid-single digit levels. Moreover, as the result of our ongoing optimization of expenses, stores and inventory, we delivered a $316 million reduction in SG&A expenses through the third quarter, ending the period with $603 million cash and restricted cash after repaying $10 million in debt during the quarter, and saw a 33% reduction in inventory compared to the prior year.”

“We begin the fourth quarter with unprecedented demand in new video game consoles that launched in November, which drove a 16.5% increase in comparable store sales for the month, despite being closed on Thanksgiving Day and the impact of COVID-19 related store closures, which affected most of our European footprint. We anticipate, for the first time in many quarters, that the fourth quarter will include positive year-on-year sales growth and profitability, reflecting the introduction of new gaming consoles, our elevated omni-channel capabilities and continued benefits from our cost and efficiency initiatives, even with the potential further negative impacts on our operations due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. Overall, we remain confident in our strategy and look forward to executing in 2021 on the many exciting opportunities to leverage our brand, extensive loyalty member base, and increased digital capabilities to expand our addressable market and product offerings, providing growth in all things games and entertainment,” Sherman concluded.

Third Quarter Sales Results:
Net sales were $1,004.7 million, down 30.2% from the fiscal 2019 third quarter reflecting:
The impact of operating during the last few months of the seven-year-long current generation console cycle and the subsequent limited availability of hardware and accessories;
The unplanned shift of software titles later into the fourth fiscal quarter, and in some cases, into fiscal 2021;
An 11% reduction in the store base, as part of the Company’s de-densification strategy, partially offset by recaptured sales through the transfer to neighboring locations and online
Comparable store sales declined 24.6%
Global E-Commerce sales increased 257% and are included in comparable store sales

Progress Toward Strategy:
Optimize the core business by improving efficiency and effectiveness across the organization:
Delivered a $115.0 million reduction in SG&A in the third quarter and a $315.9 million reduction in the first nine months of fiscal 2020 from the comparable periods of fiscal 2019 through continued expense reduction initiatives;
Continued to transform physical store presence through the ongoing market optimization and de-densification of the GameStop store base, closing 74 stores in the quarter and bringing the year-to-date closures to 462 while transferring sales to neighboring locations and on-line, and reducing store operating costs

Maintained a strong balance sheet with:
$602.6 million of cash and restricted cash at quarter end and reduced borrowings under its asset-based revolving credit facility by $10.0 million to $25.0 million; and
A 33% decrease in inventory and a 38% decrease in accounts payable as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2019
Executed two sale leaseback transactions related to office buildings, contributing approximately $43.7 million towards total liquidity; and
Subsequent to the end of the third fiscal quarter, the Company announced the voluntary early redemption of $125 million in principal amount of its 6.75% senior notes due 2021, on December 11, 2020. This voluntary early redemption covers approximately 63% of the outstanding Notes and reflects the Company’s strategy to strengthen and enhance its balance sheet, improve its debt profile and optimize its capital structure

Build a frictionless digital ecosystem to position GameStop as a digital-first omni-channel retailer:
Delivered a 257% increase in global E-Commerce sales during the quarter to represent over 18% of total net sales and nearly 25% year to date.
Leveraged improved fulfillment capabilities, including the initial roll-out of same-day delivery option to over 2,000 stores, enhancing customers’ shopping and delivery experience.
Continued to enhance the customer experience by offering easier and more convenient options, including a personalized home page for website browsing and improved site navigation, post-purchase experience enhancements, the launch of a new mobile app featuring an improved shopping experience and a full suite of flexible payment options.

Additional Third Quarter Highlights:
(See reconciliation table of GAAP results to non-GAAP adjusted results in Schedule II and III of this press release.)

Gross margin declined 320 bps from the prior year third quarter, with an increase in the mix of collectibles sales, a higher-margin product category, more than offset by the mix of hardware sales, which carry a lower gross margin, and an increase in industry-wide freight costs and credit card processing fees as a result of higher E-Commerce sales penetration
SG&A was $360.4 million, down $115 million or 24.2% compared to $475.4 million in the prior year third quarter
Adjusted SG&A was $359.7 million, a reduction of $100.0 million, or 21.8% from adjusted SG&A in the prior year third quarter
Operating loss of ($63.0) million compared to operating loss of ($45.6) million in the prior year third quarter
Income tax in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 was a benefit of $53.9 million driven by a change in the tax status of certain foreign entities and the impact of the CARES Act, including tax benefits associated with the availability of a five-year carryback period for certain current year tax losses, compared to income tax expense of $31.6 million in the prior year third quarter
Net loss of ($18.8) million, or ($0.29) per diluted share, compared to net loss of ($83.4) million, or loss per share of ($1.02) per diluted share in the prior year third quarter
Adjusted EBITDA of ($61.8) million compared to $7.7 million in the prior year third quarter
Adjusted net loss from continuing operations of ($34.4) million or ($0.53) per diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss from continuing operations of ($40.2) million, or ($0.49) per diluted share in the prior year third quarter

Capital Allocation and Liquidity Update
As of October 31, 2020, the Company had $602.6 million in cash and restricted cash compared to $304.4 million in cash and restricted cash in the prior year third quarter. The Company reduced its outstanding borrowings under the asset based revolving credit facility to $25 million.

As of October 31, 2020, the Company had $269.5 million of short-term debt and $216.0 million of long-term debt on the balance sheet. Subsequent to quarter end, as previously announced on November 10, 2020, the Company announced the voluntary early redemption of $125 million in principal amount of its 6.75% senior notes due 2021, on December 11, 2020. This voluntary early redemption covers approximately 63% of the outstanding Notes. The voluntary early redemption is consistent with the Company’s strategy to strengthen and enhance its balance sheet, improve its debt profile, and optimize its capital structure.

As part of its strategies to create optimal financial flexibility and expand liquidity alternatives, the Company intends to file a shelf registration and prospectus supplement with the Securities and Exchange Commission today under which it may offer and sell, from time to time, shares of its Class A common stock in “at-the-market offerings.” Net proceeds from sales of shares under the “at-the-market” program, if any, would be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include funding of the Company’s ongoing digital-first omni-channel growth strategy and expansion of its product and services offering. The timing and amount of sales of shares, if any, will depend on a variety of factors, including prevailing market conditions, the trading price of shares, and other factors as determined by the Company.

Jim Bell, GameStop’s chief financial officer, said, “As we continue to optimize our business model, we are shifting focus to execute the transformational components of our strategy that will position GameStop to be a leading omni-channel retailer for all things games and entertainment, which we believe will lead to sustained long-term profitable growth. Over the past 18 months, we have remained
2


steadfast in focusing on creating a more efficient business model. These efforts, despite the impacts of a global pandemic, have led to a stronger balance sheet. We believe the shelf registration and associated at-the-market program, if we chose to use it, provide us further options to enhance our liquidity alternatives to support an efficient and successful execution of our transformational strategies.”

In respect of the at-the-market program, the Company intends to file a registration statement (including a prospectus) with the SEC for the offering of shares thereunder. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus in that registration statement and other documents the Company intends to file with the SEC for more complete information about the Company and the offering. After these documents are filed, you may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC Web site at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, the company will arrange to send you the prospectus after filing if you request it by calling (817) 424-2001.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any security, nor shall there be any sale of the Company's Class A common stock in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2020 Outlook (13 weeks ending January 30, 2021)
The Company continues to focus on efforts that position it to manage through this unprecedented time, including maintaining its balance sheet strength, prioritizing the allocation of resources to areas of the business that produce strong cash flow, reducing expenses across the business, developing and expanding its digital strategy, and intensifying inventory discipline. Due to the uncertainty around the duration and evolving impact of COVID-19, the Company is continuing to suspend guidance, however it expects to realize positive comparable store sales results and profitability in the fiscal fourth quarter. For fiscal November 2020, comparable store sales increased 16.5% and total net sales were $791.1 million compared to $747.6 million in fiscal November 2019.

Non-GAAP Measures and Other Metrics
As a supplement to our financial results presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), GameStop may use certain non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted SG&A, adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), adjusted earnings (loss) per share, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in evaluating our core operating performance. Adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses (“Adjusted SG&A”), adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted earnings (loss) per share exclude the effect of items such as transformation costs, asset impairments, store closure costs, severance, non-operating tax charges, as well as divestiture costs. Results reported as constant currency exclude the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates by converting our local currency financial results using the prior period exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our current period reported results. Our definition and calculation of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from that of other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Certain of the items that may be excluded or included in non-GAAP financial measures may be significant items that could impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows and should therefore be considered in assessing the Company’s actual and future financial condition and performance. A complete definition of comparable store sales can be found in the Company’s Form 10-Q.

The diluted weighted-average shares outstanding used to calculated adjusted earnings per share may differ from GAAP weighted-average shares outstanding. Under GAAP, basic and diluted weighted-average shares outstanding are the same in periods where there is a net loss. The reconciliations below are from continuing operations only.

Non-GAAP results
The following table reconciles the Company's cash flows provided by operating activities as presented in its unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and prepared in accordance with GAAP to its free cash flow. Free cash flow is considered a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes, however, that free cash flow, which measures our ability to generate additional cash from our business operations, is an important financial measure for use by investors in evaluating the company’s financial performance.

Non-GAAP Measures and Other Metrics
Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental financial measure of the Company’s performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We believe that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before income taxes, plus interest expense, net and depreciation and amortization, excluding stock-based compensation, transformation costs, business divestitures, asset impairments, severance and other non-cash charges. Net income (loss) is the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA. Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Furthermore, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool because they exclude some but not all items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Some of these limitations include:

certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and
our computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

We compensate for the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA as an analytical tool by reviewing the comparable GAAP financial measure, understanding the differences between the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures and incorporating these data points into our decision-making process. Adjusted EBITDA is provided in addition to, and not as an alternative to, the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because Adjusted EBITDA may be defined and determined differently by other companies in our industry, our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.
