As a publicly traded company, GameStop is unusual because a significant portion of all issued shares are owned by registered shareholders.
All shares not held by registered holders are held by Cede & Co on behalf of the DTCC. This includes all shares held in brokerage accounts by retail investors, insiders, institutions, mutual funds, ETFs, and any other types of beneficial ownership.
In 2022, GameStop shareholders authorized the company to issue up to 1 billion total shares outstanding.
In 2024, GameStop completed 3 at-the-market equity offering programs, raising nearly $3.5B by selling 140M shares at an average of around $25 per share.
In the first half of 2025, GameStop completed 2 private offerings of convertible senior notes, raising an additional $4.2 billion, with additional probable future dilution of approximately 140M shares.
In the second half of 2025, GameStop issued warrants, and may raise up to $1.9B if 59M warrants are exercised and turned into shares.
In January 2026, the GameStop board of directors proposed an incentive plan for Ryan Cohen, where if all targets are met, Ryan Cohen may purchase 170M shares from GameStop.
All together, if all of these future possible dilutions are executed, the total shares outstanding would reach approximately 817M shares.
