GameStop Announces Proposed Private Offering of $1.3 Billion of Convertible Senior Notes
26 März 2025 - 9:05PM
GameStop Corp. (NYSE: GME) (“GameStop”) today announced that it
intends to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors,
$1.3 billion aggregate principal amount of 0.00% Convertible Senior
Notes due 2030 (the “notes”) in a private offering (the “offering”)
to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers
pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Securities Act”). GameStop also intends to grant the initial
purchasers of the notes an option to purchase, within a 13-day
period beginning on, and including, the date on which the notes are
first issued, up to an additional $200 million aggregate principal
amount of notes.
The notes will be general unsecured obligations of GameStop,
will not bear regular interest and the principal amount of the
notes will not accrete. The notes will mature on April 1, 2030,
unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. Upon conversion,
GameStop will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of
GameStop’s Class A common stock, par value $.001 per share (“Class
A common stock”), or a combination of cash and shares of Class A
common stock, at its election. The initial conversion rate,
repurchase or redemption rights and other terms of the notes will
be determined at the time of pricing of the offering. GameStop
expects that the reference price used to calculate the initial
conversion price for the notes will be the U.S. composite volume
weighted average price of Class A common stock from 1:00 p.m.
through 4:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on the date of pricing.
GameStop expects to use the net proceeds from the offering for
general corporate purposes, including the acquisition of Bitcoin in
a manner consistent with GameStop’s Investment Policy.
Neither the notes, nor any shares of Class A common stock
issuable upon conversion of the notes, if any, have been, or will
be, registered under the Securities Act or any state securities
laws, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the
United States, or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S.
Persons, absent registration or an applicable exemption from, or in
a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the
Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.
This press release is neither an offer to sell nor a
solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall it
constitute an offer, solicitation or sale of any securities in any
jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be
unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the
securities laws of any such jurisdiction. There can be no
assurances that the offering of the notes will be completed as
described herein or at all.
