We continued to show the true giving spirit of
GameStop by giving back in the communities
in which we live, work and play. Collectively,
our teams contributed to those in need both
monetarily and by volunteering in national and
local activities supporting our partnerships with
Make-A-Wish Foundation, the Ronald McDonald
House and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
We also took care of our own GameStop family by
increasing the amount of contributions received
and grants awarded through our Gamer Fund
employee assistance program.
Looking ahead, we will continue leveraging
our core competencies to drive sustainable
growth while meeting the changing needs of
our customers. At the center of this will be our
focus on embracing and driving a high rate
of change, maximizing our core video game
business, increasing the financial contributions
of our Technology Brands to GameStop’s overall
profitability and adhering to our disciplined
approach to capital allocation to continue
rewarding our shareholders.
We are excited about the future of GameStop
and are committed to evolving from a pure video
game retailer to a family of specialty retail brands
that operates globally in new spaces. On behalf of
our board, executive leadership team and 40,000
team members worldwide, we thank you for your
continued support of GameStop and the future we
are building for all of us.
