  @_ElectricBoogie Maybe I’m alone on this but I don’t like the look of the “shock” zebras. That being said, part of the problem is I can go on eBay and see one is listed for $75 with offers on. I’d probably hold until October

  Let me try and explain what this means (for those in the back). 1. $GME pays 50% of the eBay acquisition costs in cash. This buyout pays existing eBay shareholders (if they choose to do so) $125 for their stock 2. Authorized shares are what the company CAN issue, but are not yet issued. 3. If approved, GME can issue another 1.5b shares 4. Instead of selling those to the market (typical dilution), the plan is to ROLL them into ebay by exchanging current shareholder stock OF eBay with an equivalent number of GME shares If you're holding eBay shares at the time of acquisition, your stock will be valued at $125 per share. If GME is valued at $25, you'll receive 5 shares of GME in exchange. New stock is not being issued and sold in the open market (this time)... its exchanged 5:1 ( $GME : $EBAY )

  $GME GameStop tried to acquire $EBAY — and got shut down. eBay's board reviewed the unsolicited, non-binding takeover proposal and rejected it outright — calling it "neither credible nor attractive." eBay cited four reasons: 1.Financing uncertainty 2.Leverage and operational risks 3.Valuation concerns 4.GameStop governance Polymarket had the deal at 21% odds. Market was watching. GME sitting on billions in Bitcoin — but that wasn't enough to convince eBay's board. Not financial advice.

  @ThePPseedsShow here is what I think. I believe that Ryan Cohen now has it out there of how terrible eBay is being run. He’s gonna start up his own company. Make it part of GME do the same thing they are only better and guess what everyone will leave. eBay and go to GME! Beautiful plan.

  @APE_TN @ryancohen Your scare post hype 3B float as guaranteed dilution, but that is NOT in the filing you are trying to add fear on top. Extra shares for big moves like eBay would still need board action and market conditions, but the options math stays at 620M base. Cohen gets zero salary or bonuses. His 171.5M options at $20.66 only pay if GME hits $100B market cap AND $10B EBITDA. He puts in $3.5B of his own cash and can’t sell for 2 years. Shares now: 448M. After his full options: 620M total. The proposal just raises authorised shares to 2.5B for headroom, it doesn’t issue billions. No forced 3B float in the filing. This aligns him with holders for real growth, not handouts. Stop crying!

  I mean yes, I could try to buy them secondhand on eBay, but this isn't viable because the list I'm following has over 900 more comics. I'm not spending tons of money on shipping for single issues I'll never read again. There have been some issues that I have not liked at all

  My interprétation : GME won't dilute soon : "we do not intend to issue new shares lightly" - maybe a hint they will issue little to no now shares on the EBAY deal ? Raising the authorized count, I believe RC's plan is that GME will take advantage of the price run happening in the future to raise more money via ATM offering to buy new companies - Berkshire style. This is controlled MOASS ! You heard it first hear.

  @bostong41476161 Please take in consideration they only asking to be aloud to - they dont whant to issue 2.5B shares to just dilute. They want to buy ebay - and it will depend on the GME share price (50% stock / 50% cash) how much dilution is needed.

  @wolfejas @darrenrovell No, it has $29 billion in cash and eBay is buying GameStop through extra shares that will be created. 1. The offer in numbers Total deal value: ~$56 billion (some reports cite $55.5–56B depending on exact share count). Price per eBay share: $125 (cash + stock). Premium: ~20% over eBay’s Friday close before the announcement (implying eBay’s pre-offer market cap was ~$46–48B). eBay shares outstanding: ~448–451 million (quick check: $56B ÷ $125 ≈ 448 million). Payment split: Exactly 50% cash + 50% GameStop common stock, with eBay shareholders allowed to elect their mix (pro-rata if oversubscribed). So the split is: Cash portion: $28 billion (half of $56B). Stock portion: $28 billion worth of newly issued GameStop shares. 2. How the cash portion ($28B) is funded — the core math Cohen didn’t spell out GameStop doesn’t need to come up with $28B in cash out of thin air. Here’s the exact funding sources disclosed in their offer letter: GameStop’s existing cash & liquid investments: ~$9.4 billion (balance as of January 31, 2026; recent reports confirm it’s still ~$9B). New third-party debt financing: up to $20 billion via a “highly confident” commitment letter from TD Securities (a TD Bank subsidiary). Total cash available for the cash portion: $9.4B (GME cash) + $20B (new debt) = $29.4 billion That fully covers (and slightly exceeds) the $28B cash needed. The extra ~$1.4B provides a buffer for transaction costs, fees, or minor adjustments. In equation form: Cash required = $28B Cash sources = Existing cash + New debt commitment $28B ≤ $9.4B + $20B → Fully financed on paper. The letter explicitly states: “The cash consideration is expected to be funded from a combination of (i) cash and liquid investments on GameStop’s balance sheet, which totaled ~$9.4 billion as of January 31, 2026, and (ii) third-party acquisition financing, in respect of which GameStop has received a highly-confident letter from TD Securities for up to $20 billion.” (Note: “Highly confident” is one step short of a fully committed debt facility, which is common in early-stage unsolicited bids; it still signals strong bank backing.) 3. The stock portion ($28B) — no cash required This is pure equity issuance: GameStop issues new shares directly to eBay shareholders. The exact number of shares (and exchange ratio) will be set at signing so the stock component equals $28B in value at the agreed price. GameStop’s pre-deal market cap was ~$12 billion. Issuing $28B worth of new stock means significant dilution for existing GME shareholders (roughly tripling the share count in value terms, depending on the final price). Post-deal ownership sketch (simplified, assuming no major market reaction): eBay shareholders receive ~50% of the deal value in GME stock → they become major owners of the combined company. Original GME shareholders retain ownership of the pre-deal equity minus the dilution from the new shares issued. This is standard “cash + stock” M&A math — the stock issuance finances half the purchase without needing more cash or debt. 4. Quick pro-forma picture (why Cohen says it can work) Combined company gets eBay’s ~$10B+ annual revenue + GameStop’s operations + ~$2B in targeted annualized cost savings within 12 months. Cohen’s vision (from the letter and WSJ interview): Integrate GameStop’s 1,600+ physical stores for eBay authentication/fulfillment/live commerce, turning eBay into a stronger Amazon rival worth “hundreds of billions.” Debt load increases by ~$20B, but the combined entity’s cash flows + synergies are meant to service it. Bottom line on the math: The $28B cash leg is covered by $9.4B on-hand + $20B committed debt capacity. The $28B stock leg is covered by printing new GME shares. No mystery — it’s all in the public letter. The real questions (which CNBC rightly pressed) are execution risk, massive dilution, whether banks will ultimately fund the full $20B, regulatory hurdles, and whether eBay’s board/shareholders accept. Cohen’s on-air answers were evasive because the numbers are straightforward once you open the letter — but he didn’t walk viewers through the arithmetic the way a CEO normally would in a high-stakes deal interview. This is the clear, no-spin version. The deal is still non-binding and faces long odds, but the financing math itself adds up on paper exactly as described.
