How it’s built
- Took total sales and collectibles sales from GameStop's year-end results filing: total $3,629.9m and $3,823.0m; collectibles $1,060.2m and $717.9m.
- Subtracted collectibles from the total in each year and compared.
What we assumed
Nothing. The figure is used as published.
Sanity check
Collectibles includes toys, apparel and grading fees, so the $342m rise is not Pokémon card sales. Using filed totals changes the earlier estimate by under $5m.
Where it comes from
Our calculation from other figures in the trainer’s notes:
- ReportedGamestop collectibles against rest and yen, GameStop FY2023–FY2025 (years to early Feb)
- FiledGameStop's total net sales
Show the working
- Non collectibles growth: -17.2%
- Collectibles growth: 47.7%
- Collectibles increment: $342m
- 3,629.9 − 1,060.2 = 2,569.7
- 3,823.0 − 717.9 = 3,105.1
- 2,569.7/3,105.1 − 1 = −17.2%
