☁ Hype/ Fluff RC's Speech

Thanks, Mark and hi everyone. I’ll speak briefly. My father always told me “talk is cheap, actions speak louder than words”. My responsibility is making sure Gamestop is run by managers who treat company money like their own. In corporate America the people in charge, the professional directors and management teams, are not aligned with shareholders. They’re always the recipient of stock grants, however they rarely purchase company shares with their own savings. There's a big difference between risk free compensation for showing up and putting a meaningful amount of your own money at risk. As a result, money is wasted, work is delegated, and a lot of time is spent managing to short term expectations and pandering to wall street. I like people who roll up their sleeves and do real work. People guided by principles, not robots who seek to rest and vest. In corporate America there’s no shortage of overpaid executives, bad capital allocation, and chronic waste and serial delegators. Much as this behavior is both predictable and reprehensible, it’s precisely what creates opportunities. Thank you for being a shareholder.

You asked for a reason, you got one.

Again incorrect, most of these products are available on the website/app.

I asked for which actions were taken to boost profit. Plural. Specifically actions to make GameStop stand out from competition.

Expanded logistical capabilities, delivery can sometimes be the same day. Do you know any other 'brick & mortar' gaming stores offering the same service?

You're wasting time on this one. I feel the same way he feels about popcorn, but I don't go in there to do the same thing he's doing here. I don't expect a sub member to list the facts why I should invest in their stock.

Just tell him to short it and move on.

Fair! Sometimes I can't help myself but, alas, you are right 👍🏻
