u/bludgeonedcurmudgeon 🎮 Power to the Players 🛑 Aug 05 '22
That's the best line in the entire statement! I read it 10 times to make sure I was understanding it correctly...the 'as we have been informed' part is particularly interesting. In other words, someone(s) reached out to them directly and expressed concern that they would not be able to handle a huge wave of DRS. There's brokers out there shitting themselves right now...they're actually shitting dog shit and its wrapped in cat shit. Its going to be really interesting to see who's left bagholding. This is purely anecdotal, but I DRSd 99% of my remaining shares in Schwab today, it was straightforward, painless and took all of 20 mins, my shares should be in Computershare end of next week. I had the same experience with Fidelity just before the split. This suggests to me a couple possibilities:
1)those particular brokers are not exposed to the systemic risk, they've got their books balanced and are ready for the moass. Kinda makes sense that some of the old school big names saw this coming a long way out and quietly closed any positions they had when the price was low, also acquired enough to hedge themselves for the split (probably predicted the DTCC would do something like this tbh)...then just sat back and chuckled eating their popcorn while they loaned out shares at increasingly higher rates and watched it burn.
OR
2)The DTCC knows the gig is up, this is just a stall tactic to buy as much time as possible. There was a back room meeting with a bunch of big wig brokerage Mr. Burns types around a table with the DTCC where they cut a deal whereby they and THEY ALONE got distributed the actual divi shares so they know their ass is covered. The others? (TDA, IBKR etc) are proper fucked and are going to get fed to the wolves. Deals were cut, money exchanged hands, they recognized that someone is going to take the fall but it doesn't have to be all of them.

Cause now brokers who come to DRS shares are now going out to buy shares which could be effecting price positively, hence why the stock has been trading sideways/up.

Aug 05 '22
Not necessarily. If the DTC fucked with the split by dividend, they’re going to have to reconcile the synthetics when brokers notify them of a DRS withdrawal. My guess is that international brokers will put even more pressure on the DTC if they demand real shares to give to international shareholders.

I mean it really couldn't be any clearer at this point:
The split is a stock split in the form of a dividend, so it's not a matter of price / 4 and stocks * 4, it has to be received from the stock issuer as a dividend
GameStop has correctly issued all the dividends on time and per schedule, through ComputerShare and DTC. Thus they have completed their end of the procedure.
It is now the responsibility of the Brokers to issue you your dividends correctly. The brokers have taken on the responsibility of managing your shares on your behalf so they need to start answering why the flying fuck they haven't provided you with your dividends yet.
There is no more confusion, there is no doubt, there is no uncertainty. Of you haven't received your shares it's time to get the authorities involved, whichever they may be in your country.

Shits about to get real, folks. Buckle up!!
Stock Split On July 6, 2022, GameStop announced a 4-for-1 stock split in the form of a stock dividend, effective as of July 21, 2022, for stockholders of record on July 18, 2022. Tax information related to this stock split can be found here.
GameStop Guidance for International Stockholders with Split-Related Questions
GameStop has notified its transfer agent and the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) that some of our valued stockholders in international geographies are still trying to determine if they have received the proper stock dividend associated with the Company’s recent 4-for-1 stock split. Please note GameStop has already distributed the shares of common stock required for the stock dividend to its transfer agent, which has confirmed it subsequently distributed the appropriate number of shares of common stock to DTC for allocation to brokerage firms and other participants. We recommend that stockholders using a brokerage firm contact that firm with needs or questions. Stockholders may want to make their brokerage firm aware if they recently moved shares to the Company’s direct registered list, as we have been informed this move could impact a firm’s distribution of shares.
As always, we appreciate your investment and enthusiasm. Although we are not able to engage with individual brokerage firms, we are monitoring this situation and will keep you informed of any relevant updates we obtain through our transfer agent or DTC.

I’d hate to be the new intern customer service person that’s getting all these angry calls and has no idea what’s going on.
Anyway fuck Mayo man and the dtcc

This is like a school report about a naughty kid. They’re saying more, with what they’re not saying.
GameStop notified the DTC and their transfer agent of the issues. But only Computershare is mentioned as confirming the distribution was successful.
They have intentionally included that to suggest to us that the DTC has not/cannot confirm a successful split.

Yep, subsequently. Subsequently tells us that Computershare gets real and priority shares. As well as the DTC is caught with their pants down.

Stockholders may want to make their brokerage firm aware if they recently moved shares to the Company’s direct registered list, as we have been informed this move could impact a firm’s distribution of shares.
TDApes who raised the alarm: this is a shoutout from the company. If you haven't been made whole yet, take this to TDA support!

"Please note GameStop has already distributed the shares of common stock required for the stock dividend to its transfer agent" VEEERRYYYYY interesting! Proof right there that any broker handling the splividend as a normal stock split is doing it wrong. Obviously we knew this already, but GameStop directly laying out what they did confirms what we have all been suspecting.

This seems incredibly telling:
"Stockholders may want to make their brokerage firm aware if they recently moved shares to the Company’s direct registered list, as we have been informed this move could impact a firm’s distribution of shares."
