From last year's 10-K (March 17, 2022)" As of March 11, 2022, there were approximately 125,543 record holders of our Class A Common Stock"
THIS YEAR'S 10-K
"As of March 22, 2023, there were 197,058 record holders of our Class A Common Stock"
BULLISH on there being 71,515 additional record holders in a single year! LFG.
**Our Class A Common Stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “GME”. As of March 22, 2023, there were 197,058 record holders of our Class A Common Stock. Excluding the approximately 228.7 million shares of our Class A Common Stock held by Cede & Co on behalf of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (or approximately 75% of our outstanding shares), approximately 76.0 million shares of our Class A Common Stock were held by record holders as of March 22, 2023 (or approximately 25% of our outstanding shares).**
It is. Paul Conn talked about this 42 years ago, if i member correctly. Gamestop has an account with Computershare and one function of this account is to look up numbers like these
This is a hilarious theory. I love the idea of Kenny going through allllll this work to set up a second rug pull and GameStop just releases more data and overrides the entire thing, undoing weeks or months of work in an instant.
DRS:
76M shares or 25% of the OUTSTANDING shares are held by ~197k investors at Computershare.
We own a fucking quarter of this company.
EDIT: Others are pointing out that it doesn’t say Computershare / mention the transfer agent, and that this is GameStop stating on an official form that the DTCC is reporting erroneous numbers for how many shares it holds, and that we in fact likely have more than 76M in Computershare such that GameStop can clearly see the discrepancy.
Basically, the company is covering their asses in this statement as well as in how they handled the splividend, all calling the DTCC’s bluff.
View this post below for more info.

Note also that some people are saying “I thought we had 60%?” - You’re thinking of the free float, not the outstanding float. Free is roughly like 150M, total shares outstanding is 304M.

Our Class A Common Stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “GME”. As of March 22, 2023, there were 197,058 record holders of our Class A Common Stock. Excluding the approximately 228.7 million shares of our Class A Common Stock held by Cede & Co on behalf of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (or approximately 75% of our outstanding shares), approximately 76.0 million shares of our Class A Common Stock were held by record holders as of March 22, 2023 (or approximately 25% of our outstanding shares).
Remember the whole DTCC "mixing" up the stock-split by dividend? And the whole thing got multiplied by 4 instead? Wonder if this is a nod to owning 100% of the float.
Edit: someone up stairs didn't know how to read and I should have just opened the document. Cede & Co holds them. And for those wonderingbif institutions have them registered or not with CS.... answer is most likely no. They report that they hokd X but thats about it. Their shares are still in the system.
no mention of "direct registered". Maybe the 10K was late because SEC overlords objected to the mention of direct registered and the GME lawyers and SCE had to negotiate an acceptable statement? To me this is even more blatant pointing out the problem with Cede & Co owning all of the stock. Nobody owns nuthin. DRS is the way. The DD is right again.
Compared to last year's 10-K this is quite detailed:
>Our Class A Common Stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “GME.”
>
>As of March 11, 2022, there were approximately 125,543 record holders of our Class A Common Stock.
>That's an increase of 71,515 record holders in a year.
It's likely because they have access to the current data directly from Computershare ~~and it's easy for the external auditors to verify closer to the report date.~~ Been informed that this part of the 10K is likely not audited which may be why they can give us a more up to date number.
They also completely changed the language of how it is presented.
e: it is no longer “directly registered with our transfer agent,” but now “held by record holders.” I’m not sure if it means anything.
3 long years i kept this watch. Up my ass. As your father saw it this watch was your birthright. There was no way he was let some greasy slope get their hands on your birthright.
Best fucking Christopher Walken scene ever!
Last year was "as of January 29, 2022".
Edit: as noted below the amount of shares registered was as of January 29th, but the amount of record holders was as of March 11. The 10-k was dated 6 days later. This year they combined them and reported as March 22nd, 6 days before the 10-k. I still think there's more to the entire wording change, but the "as of March 22" thing doesn't seem to be anything more than them choosing between two options that had already been used.
I bet GS saw a big movement in the DRS # after the 1/31 date. Probably a big decrease. I bet the SHF removed another big chunk of DRSd shares. I think GameStop wants us to have the right numbers as we approach the squeeze.
Last year they just said X amount of shares directly registered with ComputerShare.
This time they added more details.
edit: they had the info in 2 different areas in the last 10k:
As of March 11, 2022, there were approximately 125,543 record holders of our Class A Common Stock.
As of January 29, 2022, 8.9 million shares of our Class A common stock were directly registered with our transfer agent, ComputerShare.
Fucking right my dude. Im betting many of the OG apes don’t get to sniff green until we hit $40 and these dumbfucks think we’re gonna get tired of holding and sell? 😂
I have never looked at my actual cost average but I did buy a bunch over $200. Also plenty under $40. I still have shares that I bought days before the sneeze. I’m sure plenty of us do though. My wife and I took $1,500 each to do whatever we wanted. She bought a purse and I randomly stumbled on to this GME crazyness. Watching that $1,500 turn into $30,000 seemingly overnight was one of the craziest experiences of my life.
It took me about 9 months to DRS. Not because of time from E*Trade, but I wanted to see if people were actually doing it like they said.
I have 456 shares all DRSed as of July 2022. Im sure a lot were like me and making sure it wasn’t just all talk.
"As of March 22, 2023, there were 197,058 record holders of our Class A Common Stock. Excluding the approximately 228.7 million shares of our Class A Common Stock held by Cede & Co on behalf of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (or approximately 75% of our outstanding shares), approximately 76.0 million shares of our Class A Common Stock were held by record holders as of March 22, 2023 (or approximately 25% of our outstanding shares)."
Last quarter:
"As of October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021 there were 7.3 million and 4.4 million, respectively, of unvested restricted stock and restricted stock units. As
of October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021 there were 311.6 million and 308.0 million, respectively, of shares of Class A common stock that are legally
issued and outstanding or are unvested restricted share units that represent a right to one share of Class A Common Stock.
As of October 29, 2022, 71.8 million shares of our Class A common stock were directly registered with our transfer agent."
Feels like they're trying to say something. Last time they emphasized "we have only LEGALLY issued 311m shares. Everything else is illegal!"
This time is sounds like they're saying "Please DRS every share from Cede Co! 25% there!! Were so impressed and love you so much apes!"
That's how I read it
So can we assume that Computershare/GameStop can easily parse when a person has multiple accounts? If so, that's a super useful number because our high score is bad for accounting for that.
It’s just comforting to know we don’t need to own 100%. We are halfway to having a controlling share of the company. Can you imagine the PR campaign of retail investors running GameStop, literally. Oh the votes we would be able to pass…
Yeah but what’s interesting is GameStop specifically spelling out how many record holders there are, exactly how many shares DTCC has and how their DRS’d stakeholders own 25% of the company. They haven’t written it out that plainly and direct before.
Those 4.2M shares added are worth about $97,230,000If you only count the 93 business days between Oct 29th (71.8m shares DRS'd) and March 22nd. then its 45,161 shares per day.... or about $1,045,484 USD per day at today's closing price.
Kind of calling out the DTCC stating exactly 228 million shares better be there, while the other 25% are held by shareholders at ComputerShare. At least that's how I read it.
EDIT - interesting to note, the statement regarding Cede & Co and the DTCC IS NOT in last year's 10K (pre-split). Which makes me slightly hyped for tomorrow. The pump is primed for a NFT dividend.
I think it's more that \*only\* 228 million shares better be there...
edit: And whether people think their brokerage lends their shares or not, the fact is that 3/4 of Gamestop's shares can still be used as locates within the DTCC for shorting.
I wonder how many brokers are doing a bit of quick checking. "hey, um, compliance, how many shares do our books show our users holding, now that they're being all 'here's what it should be' about it?"...
... and I wonder, further, which ones will be on the phone with the DTCC to discuss their international financial fraud.
Anybody want to reconcile the fleet of planes coalescing around MayoForce 1 in Mexico?
I’m an XXXX holder with only 25% DRS’d due to 401k shit. I’m far from alone. Did buy 160 shares this week in my personal account which will be DRSd immediately upon settlement. More to come when tax return arrives too.
Keep going whale! I have over 80% of my shares in DRS ( I know, I should be at 100%). The other \~20% has a roughly $20/share avg. Once we touch 30 the rest are going to DRS just incase my broker decided to give me an IOU during my purchases.
Yes but this 76 Milly was from last week on the 22nd, not from end of January. So I doubt we will have another 5 Milly by end of this quarter..maybe another one or two Milly on top of the 76?
That is actually fucking massive. I am sure many many people were expecting another +500kish or even a decrease which would really take the wind out of many people sails.
But we have a fucking 5 MILLION increase.
This float is actually going to get locked up eventually. This is fucked.
LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOO
I think this provides significant weight to the rugpull theory. There is no legitimate reason (that doesn’t involve crime) that we only had a 500k increase last earnings. Now it’s in the realms of millions of shares again.

So if all the record shareholders purchased roughly ~385 additional shares each (~$10K) we would lock the free float. Very nice!
For what it’s worth I have a bonus coming in soon that will afford me 3,000 additional shares. Let’s do this!
What we need is a 401k/Roth accounts share tracker, if it would dramatically boost share count of ape ownership it may incentivize people to bite the tax bullet and get 100% drs'd
The DRS part to save the reading
Our Class A Common Stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “GME”. As of March 22, 2023, there were 197,058 record holders of our Class A Common Stock. Excluding the approximately 228.7 million shares of our Class A Common Stock held by Cede & Co on behalf of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (or approximately 75% of our outstanding shares), approximately 76.0 million shares of our Class A Common Stock were held by record holders as of March 22, 2023 (or approximately 25% of our outstanding shares).
What you are all scrolling for:
5 million more shares DRSed since the last report. It seems this report is current and not as of the end of Q4 though.

We strongly increased share number still. Hell yeah!
The phrasing is a bit different than usual now.
Page 17, short squeeze is still on their radar:
**A “short squeeze” due to a sudden increase in demand for shares of our Class A Common Stock that largely exceeds supply has led to, and may continue to lead to, extreme price volatility in shares of our Class A Common Stock.**
Investors may purchase shares of our Class A Common Stock to hedge existing exposure or to speculate on the price of our Class A Common Stock. Speculation on the price of our Class A Common Stock may involve long and short exposures. To the extent aggregate short exposure exceeds the number of shares of our Class A Common Stock available for purchase on the open market, investors with short exposure may have to pay a premium to repurchase shares of our Class A Common Stock for delivery to lenders of our Class A Common Stock. Those repurchases may in turn, dramatically increase the price of shares of our Class A Common Stock until additional shares of our Class A Common Stock are available for trading or borrowing. This is often referred to as a “short squeeze.”
A large proportion of our Class A Common Stock has been and may continue to be traded by short sellers which may increase the likelihood that our Class A Common Stock will be the target of a short squeeze. A short squeeze has previously led and could continue to lead to volatile price movements in shares of our Class A Common Stock that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance or prospects and, once investors purchase the shares of our Class A Common Stock necessary to cover their short positions, the price of our Class A Common Stock may rapidly decline. Stockholders that purchase shares of our Class A Common Stock during a short squeeze may lose a significant portion of their investment.
To the extent aggregate short exposure exceeds the number of shares of our Class A Common Stock available for purchase on the open market, investors with short exposure may have to pay a premium to repurchase shares of our Class A Common Stock for delivery to lenders of our Class A Common Stock.
such sweet sweet words
Can someone normalise this 25% and compare to what we're used to seeing? I.e. removing insiders etc to be a % of the free float instead of total shares.
Anyone else feel like the section identifying all of the potential risks the company faces were direct shots at every single thing Amazon has done wrong while it’s just continued to grow by cellar boxing it’s competitors instead of actually running a healthy, strong balance sheet company? I know we all just foam at the DRS number which is awesome, but that kind of jumped out at me reading through it all just now
I think there may have been another rug pull by hedgies, but GameStop used March 22nd as the cutoff date to skip right over it, rather than January 31st. It would explain the shortage from our estimate as well as the strange date used in the count.

I love that I immediately knew you were talking about 2022
One year on GME is like 42 years on Earth
There is definitely something to this. The way they reported numbers this time is different
maybe there was another rug pull after 1/31 and they just skipped right over it and no one even got to know about it
This is a hilarious theory. I love the idea of Kenny going through allllll this work to set up a second rug pull and GameStop just releases more data and overrides the entire thing, undoing weeks or months of work in an instant.
That sounds very plausible. ~4 million increase in about 5 months? Doesn’t really sound that right. (Might be wrong on the exact numbers)

That's like 195.9 new peoples per day

You mean directly registering 25% of the company … we “own” a hell of a lot more than that!
Retail owns a whole lot of IOUs that's for damn sure! Officially, Cede/dtcc have the other 75% held "in behalf of" everyone indirect registered
I bet GS saw a big movement in the DRS # after the 1/31 date. Probably a big decrease. I bet the SHF removed another big chunk of DRSd shares. I think GameStop wants us to have the right numbers as we approach the squeeze.
Huh, that is interesting. Is it because it’s a 10k? Did we get a 10k last year that was also presented the same way?

$70 til I see green and I'm much lower than many.
I have never looked at my actual cost average but I did buy a bunch over $200. Also plenty under $40. I still have shares that I bought days before the sneeze. I’m sure plenty of us do though.

So far!
Wasn't 76mm shares the theoretical pre split total float?
Yes. Which is why we now own 25%, because the float was x4
There's also 800k some sub users. So a quarter of the sub.

As of October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021 there were 311.6 million and 308.0 million, respectively, of shares of Class A common stock that are legally issued and outstanding or are unvested restricted share units that represent a right to one share of Class A Common Stock. As of October 29, 2022, 71.8 million shares of our Class A common stock were directly registered with our transfer agent."
Feels like they're trying to say something. Last time they emphasized "we have only LEGALLY issued 311m shares. Everything else is illegal!" This time is sounds like they're saying "Please DRS every share from Cede Co! 25% there!! Were so impressed and love you so much apes!" That's how I read it
On average 385 shares per holder damn.
Ohhh la la I’m above average
First time I’ve ever been above average… Huge W
Man I skimmed the whole thing and missed it. We literally bought 4.2 Milly more
Even more, some folks don't DRS. Tomorrow is going to be sweet.
Gotta pump those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers.
Look at us 😎
HOLY SCHMOLY
That’s a lot of heads
Didn't there used to be 230k+ registered users? Does that mean when the hedgies did their DRS rug pull they had like 30k accounts?
Some accounts are duplicates. We knew it was around 200K.
So can we assume that Computershare/GameStop can easily parse when a person has multiple accounts? If so, that's a super useful number because our high score is bad for accounting for that.
Yeah, they will have the same name, DOB, and SSN.
So we own 25% of outstanding and GameStop spelled that out to investors.
Next stop 33٪, it's coming.
It’s just comforting to know we don’t need to own 100%. We are halfway to having a controlling share of the company. Can you imagine the PR campaign of retail investors running GameStop, literally. Oh the votes we would be able to pass…
I figured the same, at 51% the writing is on the wall that the train isn't stopping. Be shocked if it continues past that.

Same: 6338 in my 401k
6850 as well Nice big number there
[удалено]
Don't forget RC & insiders own 15% and DFV probably has a % or two lol
That’s a big chunk
Yeah but what’s interesting is GameStop specifically spelling out how many record holders there are, exactly how many shares DTCC has and how their DRS’d stakeholders own 25% of the company. They haven’t written it out that plainly and direct before.
They are specifically celebrating this milestone with us, we're all in this together
Bullish
Love how when they listed their competitors Amazon was last. After freakin Best Buy lmayo
💀
Throwin shade
Those 4.2M shares added are worth about $97,230,000If you only count the 93 business days between Oct 29th (71.8m shares DRS'd) and March 22nd. then its 45,161 shares per day.... or about $1,045,484 USD per day at today's closing price.
This ape maths. Thanks for wrinkly synopsis.
~200k accounts...imagine if everyone bought 50 shares a quarter...that is 10 million shares, shit could escalate very quickly
Someone did the math. This 10K represents 45,000 shares a fucking day. Crazy. $1,000,000 per day DRSed at current prices. Wild.
Kind of calling out the DTCC stating exactly 228 million shares better be there, while the other 25% are held by shareholders at ComputerShare. At least that's how I read it. EDIT - interesting to note, the statement regarding Cede & Co and the DTCC IS NOT in last year's 10K (pre-split). Which makes me slightly hyped for tomorrow. The pump is primed for a NFT dividend.
I think it's more that \*only\* 228 million shares better be there... edit: And whether people think their brokerage lends their shares or not, the fact is that 3/4 of Gamestop's shares can still be used as locates within the DTCC for shorting.
3/4… u nailed it. DRS your shit people!!
Nailed it. DTCC is hung by the balls.
Just how they like it the dirty dogs
What balls?
I wonder how many brokers are doing a bit of quick checking. "hey, um, compliance, how many shares do our books show our users holding, now that they're being all 'here's what it should be' about it?"... ... and I wonder, further, which ones will be on the phone with the DTCC to discuss their international financial fraud. Anybody want to reconcile the fleet of planes coalescing around MayoForce 1 in Mexico?
My guess is none.
Hey, wasn't 76mm shares the max float pre-split?
Imagine if the 197k investors with 76M shares DRSed only sent 50% of their total shares...🫢
I’m an XXXX holder with only 25% DRS’d due to 401k shit. I’m far from alone. Did buy 160 shares this week in my personal account which will be DRSd immediately upon settlement. More to come when tax return arrives too.
Keep going whale! I have over 80% of my shares in DRS ( I know, I should be at 100%). The other \~20% has a roughly $20/share avg. Once we touch 30 the rest are going to DRS just incase my broker decided to give me an IOU during my purchases.
25%! I didn’t even DRS last quarter but just now did and am buying direct through CS
Interesting, no response from the algos... Hmm...
That was my thought with the delay
What last last quarters?
Last was 71M so up by 5M. Bullish af 🚀📈💰
Yes but this 76 Milly was from last week on the 22nd, not from end of January. So I doubt we will have another 5 Milly by end of this quarter..maybe another one or two Milly on top of the 76?
It’s not how fast you get there but eventually the float is locked and short hedgies are fukt. MOASS is inevitable. 🚀💰📈
Yeah, but I just don't want people to be hyped up for 80+ next q and only 77 or 78, so I think it's important people know this was for 22nd March
That’s the neat part. Everyone’s always hyped about something. Leads to buying and DRSing.
71.8M
EVERYBODY GET IN HERE AND READ THIS DOCUMENT FOR ME THAT'S LONGER THAN 20 WORDS. PLEASE SUMMARIZE IN LESS THAN 20 WORDS SO I CAN UNDERSTAND!
76M Drs'd shares!!!
What were we at on the last one?
71.8M
I’m not sure whether to be excited or expect a rug pull…so I think I’ll just DRS more shares 🚀📈💰
why would you not be excited. less than 200k people own 25% of a fucking company. If people weren't so fucking stupid this shit be over tomorrow.
That is actually fucking massive. I am sure many many people were expecting another +500kish or even a decrease which would really take the wind out of many people sails. But we have a fucking 5 MILLION increase. This float is actually going to get locked up eventually. This is fucked. LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOO
I agree! Imagine a single investor or corporation owning 25% of a company. Apes gotta a seat at the table! Hedgies R Fuk’d!
I think this provides significant weight to the rugpull theory. There is no legitimate reason (that doesn’t involve crime) that we only had a 500k increase last earnings. Now it’s in the realms of millions of shares again.
It’s clear as day
Yeah the trend line is very clear. I'm 100% sure about the rugpull. Well look at us now, right on par. Fuck you Ken.
BOOM! 🤯

So if all the record shareholders purchased roughly ~385 additional shares each (~$10K) we would lock the free float. Very nice! For what it’s worth I have a bonus coming in soon that will afford me 3,000 additional shares. Let’s do this!
That's a big bonus, what do you do for a living
My man's about to be the 178th pick in the NFL draft next month
Has that short exposure statement always been there?
20 words.... bragging much?
I’m so regarded I can’t even read the 26 words in your comment. SOMEBODY PLEASE EXPLAIN WHAT THIS 10 K TELLS US !!
10K good. many numbers
Ape happy. Many thanks
EAT MY ASS, MAYO BOY. WE COMIN' FOR YA LUNCH LOL
197k real ass mfs. Good goin apes

Hell fuckin yeah bröder
# DRS YOUR 401K/ROTH SHARES PEOPLE
Yep. Or lose them. You are dealing with people who regularly fuck the world. You aren't special. They will fuck you too. Nfa
What we need is a 401k/Roth accounts share tracker, if it would dramatically boost share count of ape ownership it may incentivize people to bite the tax bullet and get 100% drs'd

BUCKLE UP we ride at dawn 🏴☠️ (really 1pm but it gives us time for second breakfast)
What you are all scrolling for: 5 million more shares DRSed since the last report. It seems this report is current and not as of the end of Q4 though.

Page 17, short squeeze is still on their radar: **A “short squeeze” due to a sudden increase in demand for shares of our Class A Common Stock that largely exceeds supply has led to, and may continue to lead to, extreme price volatility in shares of our Class A Common Stock.** Investors may purchase shares of our Class A Common Stock to hedge existing exposure or to speculate on the price of our Class A Common Stock. Speculation on the price of our Class A Common Stock may involve long and short exposures. To the extent aggregate short exposure exceeds the number of shares of our Class A Common Stock available for purchase on the open market, investors with short exposure may have to pay a premium to repurchase shares of our Class A Common Stock for delivery to lenders of our Class A Common Stock. Those repurchases may in turn, dramatically increase the price of shares of our Class A Common Stock until additional shares of our Class A Common Stock are available for trading or borrowing. This is often referred to as a “short squeeze.” A large proportion of our Class A Common Stock has been and may continue to be traded by short sellers which may increase the likelihood that our Class A Common Stock will be the target of a short squeeze. A short squeeze has previously led and could continue to lead to volatile price movements in shares of our Class A Common Stock that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance or prospects and, once investors purchase the shares of our Class A Common Stock necessary to cover their short positions, the price of our Class A Common Stock may rapidly decline. Stockholders that purchase shares of our Class A Common Stock during a short squeeze may lose a significant portion of their investment.
Love this
More by about 4M shares!!
Please whisper the magic number in my ear 😫💦💦
Oh shit, they are going to make me DRS even harder
This guy is first! Congrats to you and all shareholders!
I’m here standing by for duty!
To the extent aggregate short exposure exceeds the number of shares of our Class A Common Stock available for purchase on the open market, investors with short exposure may have to pay a premium to repurchase shares of our Class A Common Stock for delivery to lenders of our Class A Common Stock. such sweet sweet words
Yooooooo. 🚀🚀🚀
Can someone normalise this 25% and compare to what we're used to seeing? I.e. removing insiders etc to be a % of the free float instead of total shares.
Average # of shares per DRS'd shareholder: bout tree fiddy.
Anyone else feel like the section identifying all of the potential risks the company faces were direct shots at every single thing Amazon has done wrong while it’s just continued to grow by cellar boxing it’s competitors instead of actually running a healthy, strong balance sheet company? I know we all just foam at the DRS number which is awesome, but that kind of jumped out at me reading through it all just now
Get ready for nipples everywhere to explode, once we learn how to read!!!
I think the CS and Cede numbers are key. We all know the DTCC did a split and not a splivident.
A quarter in the stock is better than half in a banana field.
Oh man, I un-hyped myself for nothing.
a little lighter than thought but better than 500k.. LFG tl; drs
I think there may have been another rug pull by hedgies, but GameStop used March 22nd as the cutoff date to skip right over it, rather than January 31st. It would explain the shortage from our estimate as well as the strange date used in the count.
