I bought Ṁ8 of NO. GameStop's Sept. 8 Q2 release reports $5.1bn in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of Aug. 1, plus a separate $4.9bn eBay equity stake. It also says Sept. 3 debt exchanges reduced long-term debt to about $2.8bn. Q2 operating income was $160.2m and net income $298.7m.
That balance sheet makes bankruptcy before end-2028 look much less likely than the current 79% to me. The eBay holding isn't cash, and those asset/debt figures have different dates. Risky acquisitions or other capital allocation, investment losses and deteriorating retail operations could still erode the cushion.
Which specific financing obligation or cash-burn forecast do YES holders think would exhaust that cushion by end-2028?
