Concludes Review of Strategic and Financial Alternatives

Announces $100 Million Profit Improvement Initiative

GRAPEVINE, Texas, April 02, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GameStop Corp. (NYSE: GME), today reported sales and earnings for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended February 2, 2019.  As a reminder, the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 contained 13 weeks of operating results compared to 14 weeks in fiscal 2017, and fiscal 2018 contained 52 weeks of operating results compared to 53 weeks in fiscal 2017.  Same store sales comparisons for the fiscal quarter and fiscal year are based on the most closely comparable weeks for the 13 week and 52 week periods.

Dan DeMatteo, GameStop’s executive chairman said, “This past year was a pivotal one for GameStop, capped by retail industry veteran George Sherman’s appointment as chief executive officer.  In conjunction with the board’s comprehensive review of strategic and financial alternatives, we executed the sale of Spring Mobile at an attractive valuation.  As a result, we are better positioned to drive shareholder value with an intense focus on leveraging our global gaming and collectibles business.  Additionally, we are significantly reducing leverage through the announced retirement of $350 million of outstanding notes, and we have increased flexibility with respect to future capital allocation opportunities.  We are excited to move forward under George’s leadership as we refine our strategic direction and implement several initiatives under development to strengthen the company for the future and drive sustainable growth and profitability.”

Rob Lloyd, chief operating officer and chief financial officer, added, “We are pleased to have delivered fiscal 2018 results within our adjusted guidance range, which included fourth quarter and full year sales growth across video game accessories, collectibles and digital.  Excluding the impact of the 53rd week in fiscal 2017, new hardware sales for the year were in line with last year.  As we think about 2019 and beyond, we recognize the challenges facing our pre-owned video game business and are prepared to address them as we continue to evolve our business model going forward.  Importantly, we will continue to leverage our powerful brand to drive growth and, with a new cost savings and profit improvement initiative in place, we will focus our efforts on driving profitability. GameStop is a leader in the video game industry, and we remain committed to capitalizing on our leadership position to discover new and unique ways to meet our loyal customers’ entertainment needs and attract new customers.”

Fourth Quarter Results
As previously disclosed, the Company completed the sale of its Spring Mobile business on January 16, 2019 and the results of that business are included in discontinued operations for the fourth quarter and fiscal 2018 period.  Fiscal fourth quarter 2018 contained 13 weeks of operating results compared to 14 weeks in fiscal 2017.

Total global sales from continuing operations decreased 7.6% (decreased 6.2% in constant currency) to $3.1 billion, resulting in a consolidated comparable store sales increase of 1.4% (3.4% increase in the U.S. and 2.9% decrease internationally).  The primary contributors to the difference between the increase in comparable store sales and the decrease in total company sales was the shift in the company’s fiscal calendar for the 53^rd week in fiscal 2017 and the timing of the Call of Duty launch. 

• New hardware sales decreased 9.8%, with an increase in Nintendo Switch sales offset by a decline in Xbox One X sales due to its strong launch in the prior year and the impact of the 53^rd week in fiscal 2017. 
• New software sales decreased 7.8%, driven by key titles launching earlier in the year compared to last year and the impact of the 53^rd week in fiscal 2017. 
• Accessories sales increased 18.8% on the continued strength of controller and headset sales.
• Pre-owned sales declined 21.3% reflecting declines in hardware and software.
• Digital receipts increased 4.7% to $432.5 million, primarily driven by strength in sales of digital currency. 
• Collectibles sales increased 3.1% to $268.8 million, with continued growth in both domestic and international stores.

GameStop’s fourth quarter GAAP net income (loss) was ($187.7) million, or ($1.84) per diluted share, compared to net income (loss) of ($105.9) million, or ($1.04) per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter.  Fourth quarter fiscal 2018 results include asset impairment charges and other items of $334.5 million ($351.6 million net of taxes), or $3.44 per diluted share, primarily related to impairment of goodwill.  Fourth quarter fiscal 2017 results included asset impairment charges and other items of $406.5 million ($310.9 million net of taxes), or $3.06 per diluted share, primarily related to impairment of intangible assets.

Excluding the asset impairment charges and other items, GameStop's adjusted net income from continuing operations for the fourth quarter decreased 16.2% to $148.5 million, compared to adjusted net income from continuing operations of $177.2 million in the prior-year quarter.  Adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations were $1.45 compared to adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations of $1.74 in the prior-year quarter.

Fiscal 2018 Results
Fiscal 2018 contained 52 weeks of operating results compared to 53 weeks in fiscal 2017.

Total global sales from continuing operations decreased 3.1% to $8.3 billion, while consolidated comparable store sales decreased 0.3% (1.8% increase in the U.S. and 4.8% decrease internationally).

Key takeaways for fiscal 2018 include:

• Accessories sales increased 22.0%.
• Collectibles sales increased 11.2% to $707.5 million.
• Digital receipts increased 16.5% to $1.3 billion.
• New hardware sales declined 1.3%.
• New software sales declined 5.1%.
• Pre-owned sales declined 13.2%.
• Generated free cash flow of $232.7 million.

GameStop's fiscal 2018 GAAP net income (loss) was ($673.0) million or ($6.59) per diluted share, compared to net income of $34.7 million, or $0.34 per diluted share in fiscal 2017.  Fiscal 2018 results include asset impairment charges and other items of $964.2 million ($948.9 million net of taxes), or $9.29 per diluted share, primarily related to impairment of goodwill.  Fiscal 2017 GAAP results include asset impairment charges and other items of $399.7 million ($303.9 million net of taxes), or $3.00 per diluted share, primarily related to impairment of intangible assets.    

Excluding asset impairment charges and other items, GameStop's adjusted net income from continuing operations for fiscal 2018 decreased 22.9% to $218.4 million, compared to adjusted net income from continuing operations of $283.1 million in fiscal 2017. Adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations were $2.14 compared to adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations of $2.79 in the prior fiscal year.  For fiscal 2018, adjusted earnings per diluted share, including both continuing and discontinued operations, were $2.70, within the company’s guidance range of $2.55 to $2.75, compared to $3.34 for fiscal 2017.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP results, including adjusted net income from continuing operations, adjusted net income from discontinued operations and adjusted total net income, and operating earnings from continuing operations, operating earnings from discontinued operations and total operating earnings, to its closest GAAP measure is included with this release (Schedule III and IV).

Capital Allocation Update
On March 4, 2019, GameStop’s board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.38 per common share for shareholders of record at the close of business on March 15, 2019 which was paid on March 29, 2019.

The company anticipates the retirement of the $350 million in unsecured senior notes scheduled to mature in October 2019 to be completed by April 4, 2019.  The company currently has $300 million available under the current share repurchase authorization. 

2019 Outlook
As a result of the strategic and financial alternatives review conducted in fiscal 2018, the company announced that it is embarking on a cost savings and profit improvement initiative designed to strengthen the organization for the future and support long-term improved financial performance and profitability.  These initiatives include supply chain efficiencies, operational improvements, expense savings and pricing and promotion optimization.  Based on initial estimates, which are preliminary and could change as the program is implemented throughout the year, the company is working to achieve annualized operating profit improvements of approximately $100 million.  Given the timing of the program, the company expects minimal impact on fiscal 2019 results.

Given the planned cost savings and profit improvement initiative and the announcement of a new CEO starting on April 15, 2019, the company is not providing annual earnings per share guidance at this time.  However, the company expects first quarter earnings of breakeven to a loss of $0.05 per share, consistent with the seasonally slower first half of the fiscal year, and is providing full year sales and tax guidance as follows:

FY 2019 Total Sales (calculated using sales from continuing operations)		-5% to -10%
FY 2019 Comparable Store Sales		-5% to -10%
FY 2019 Adjusted (Non-GAAP) Income Tax Rate		Approximately 27%

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 operating earnings, adjusted net income and constant currency. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in evaluating our core operating performance. Adjusted operating earnings and adjusted net income exclude the effect of items such as asset impairments, store closure costs, severance, non-operating tax charges, as well as acquisition and 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 measures may differ from that of other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the company's reported GAAP financial results. Additionally, GameStop uses “digital receipts” as an operating metric and defines it as the retail value paid by the customer for digital content sold individually or bundled with non-digital products and sales of subscriptions to our Game Informer magazine in digital form. The vast majority of our digital receipts come from digital products that are sold individually rather than bundled with other products. Under GAAP, we recognize the sale of these digital products on a net basis, whereby the commissions earned are recorded to revenue rather than the full retail price paid by the customer. We believe this operating metric is useful in understanding the size and performance of our digital business in comparison to measures of the overall digital industry revenues and our other video game product categories.

Non-GAAP results

The following tables reconcile the Company's operating earnings (loss), net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share as presented in its unaudited consolidated statements of operations and prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") to its adjusted operating earnings, net income and earnings per share. The diluted weighted-average shares outstanding used to calculate adjusted earnings per share for the 13 and 52 weeks ended February 2, 2019 differs from GAAP weighted-average shares outstanding and assumes the inclusion of 0.2 million and 0.2 million common stock equivalents associated with restricted stock awards for the 13 and 52 weeks ended February 2, 2019, respectively. Under GAAP, basic and diluted weighted-average shares outstanding are the same in periods where there is a net loss.
