The Company sold the maximum number of shares registered under the ATM Program for aggregate gross proceeds (before commissions and offering expenses) of approximately $2.137 billion.
GameStop made an SEC filing to sell up to 75 million shares of its stock on Friday.

Well the offering is over so you’d be “fine” buying it now. Think about how little the price moved with all that selling. The dilution is already done. Honestly, the company is in a stronger position after this. Not saying the current stock price is either realistic or at its floor though.

Why would the company's $4 billion in cash holdings make you reconsider?

Oh, yeah it had a decent trade setup last week. Might still be some upside with the shareholder meeting on Thursday.

This would not show up on the income statement. It will show up on next quarter's statement of cash flows under the Financing segment.

I was chatting with my brother about that topic today. At one point many years ago when NTDOY was in the dumps. It was like $11/share for the stock and $8/share was cash. (Pre-split share prices)
That’s the last time I saw something that resembled this balance sheet, but these are very different companies. And Nintendo didn’t do a secondary offering to raise the cash.-

Hopefully the CEO will actually talk about the future at the shareholder meeting this week.

If you believe what Keith said on his stream, no. They aren’t working together.

Why not delete the shares?

I used to buy games at GameStop, but now I increasingly choose online platforms. It's much more convenient because you don't have to go anywhere. The same goes for other entertainment. I used to go to casinos with my friends sometimes, but now I use https://qbets.de/ and get no less vivid emotions. Moreover, they offer a large selection of games and bonuses that attract much more than traditional ways of playing. The future belongs to digital services.
