GameStop Raising $450 Million From Convertible Senior Notes To Make Investments
Today, GameStop Corp. (NYSE: GME) filed a Form 8-K with the SEC, following the full exercise of a $450 million Greenshoe option on its recent private offering of convertible senior notes, which could see the company potentially use the proceeds to purchase more Bitcoin. The move brings the total value of GameStop’s zero percent convertible senior notes due 2032 to $2.7 billion.

The company added Bitcoin to its investment policy earlier this year, identifying it as a treasury reserve asset. According to the company, the proceeds will be used for investments that align with their company investment policy. So with the newly raised capital, Bitcoin is now an asset that the company is officially allowed to purchase and hold.
“In connection with the Greenshoe Exercise, the Company received gross proceeds of $450 million and net proceeds, after deducting the initial purchaser’s discount but before deducting estimated fees and expenses, of approximately $446.6 million,” the filing stated. “The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Greenshoe Exercise for general corporate purposes, including making investments in a manner consistent with the Company’s Investment Policy and potential acquisitions.”
The additional $450 million in notes follows a previously announced $2.25 billion offering that closed on June 17. The strong demand from institutional investors prompted GameStop to exercise the Greenshoe option in full on June 23, with the new notes issued the following day.
The notes, maturing on June 15, 2032, are convertible into Class A shares at $28.91 each, a 32.5 percent premium over the June 12 average. Full conversion could result in up to 20.3 million new shares, expanding GameStop’s equity base.
“A maximum of 20,325,195 shares of Common Stock may be issued upon conversion of the Additional Notes based on the initial maximum conversion rate of 45.1671 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, which is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustment provisions,” the filing said.
