GameStop disclosed a $4.9 billion stake in eBay and holds 59 million warrants expiring October 30, 2026, with a $32 exercise price. The warrants are currently underwater as GameStop trades around $22.76, making the acquisition funding uncertain unless the stock price hits or exceeds $32 before expiration. CEO Ryan Cohen's recent $26.4 million share purchase boosted the stock but not enough to reach the strike price. The outcome will determine if GameStop can leverage warrant proceeds or must rely on cash and debt for the potential eBay acquisition.
