NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of Presentation
GameStop Corp. (together with its predecessor companies, GameStop, we, us, our, or the Company), a Delaware corporation, is the worlds largest multichannel video game retailer. The Company sells new and pre-owned video game hardware, physical and digital video game software, accessories, as well as PC entertainment software, new and pre-owned mobile and consumer electronics products and other merchandise. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of the Companys management, necessary for a fair presentation of the information for the periods presented. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all disclosures required under GAAP for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the 53 weeks ended February 2, 2013 (fiscal 2012). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In preparing these financial statements, management has made its best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. Changes in the estimates and assumptions used by management could have a significant impact on the Companys financial results. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Due to the seasonal nature of the business, the results of operations for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 are not indicative of the results to be expected for the 52 weeks ending February 1, 2014 (fiscal 2013).
Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior period data to the current interim period presentation.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In March 2013, an accounting standard update was issued providing guidance with respect to the release of cumulative translation adjustments into net income when a parent company sells either a part or all of an investment in a foreign entity. The accounting standard update requires the release of cumulative translation adjustments when a company no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a foreign subsidiary or a group of assets that constitutes a business within a foreign entity. This accounting standard update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect of this accounting standard update, but does not expect it to have a significant impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In February 2013, an accounting standard update was issued regarding disclosure of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. An entity is required to present either on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts not reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
about those amounts. This accounting standard update is effective for the Companys annual and interim periods beginning in fiscal 2013. The accounting standard update had no effect on the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements.
In July 2012, an accounting standard update was issued related to testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. The purpose of the update is to simplify the guidance for testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment and the update permits entities to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. Unless an entity determines, through its qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, it would not be required to calculate the fair value of the asset. This standard is effective for annual and interim impairment tests of indefinite-lived intangible assets performed in fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, and early adoption is permitted. This standard did not have an impact on our annual indefinite-lived asset impairment testing process in fiscal 2012 as we did not elect to perform a qualitative assessment. The adoption of this guidance may result in a change in how we perform our goodwill impairment assessment; however, it is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
2. | Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation |
For stock options granted, the Company records share-based compensation expense in earnings based on the grant-date fair value. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This valuation model requires the use of subjective assumptions, including expected option life, expected volatility, expected dividend yield and expected employee forfeiture rate. The Company uses historical data to estimate the option life, dividend yield and the employee forfeiture rate, and uses historical volatility when estimating the stock price volatility. There were no stock options granted during the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012. During the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, 457 thousand options of Class A Common Stock were granted with a fair value of $7.10 per common share, using the following assumptions:
13 Weeks Ended | ||||
May 4, 2013 |
||||
Volatility |
46.4 | % | ||
Risk-free interest rate |
1.0 | % | ||
Expected life (years) |
5.6 | |||
Expected dividend yield |
4.3 | % |
The stock options granted become exercisable ratably over a three-year period, commencing one year after the grant date, subject to continued service to the Company, and expire in February 2023, or ten years after the grant date.
In the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012, the Company included compensation expense relating to stock option grants of $0.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively, in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of May 4, 2013, the unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested portion of our stock options was $3.0 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.8 years. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012 was $10.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively.
During the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, 1.2 million shares of restricted stock were granted with a fair value of $24.82 per common share. Of these restricted shares, 614 thousand shares vest in equal annual installments over three years, 262 thousand shares are performance-based and 303 thousand shares vest in full in

February 2016. Restricted shares granted are subject to continued service to the Company. Of the 262 thousand performance-based restricted shares granted during the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, 131 thousand shares will be measured following the completion of fiscal 2013 with the portion earned vesting in equal annual installments over three years. The remaining 131 thousand shares will be measured following the completion of the 52 weeks ending January 30, 2016. These grants will vest immediately upon measurement to the extent earned. Shares subject to performance measures may generally be earned in greater or lesser percentages if targets are exceeded or not achieved by specified amounts. During the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012, 1.4 million shares of restricted stock were granted with a fair value of $23.73 per common share. Of these shares, 770 thousand vest in equal annual installments over three years and 626 thousand shares are subject to performance measures. Of the performance related restricted shares granted, 126 thousand vest in equal annual installments, to the extent earned, over three years subject to performance targets based on fiscal 2012 operating results. Based on actual fiscal 2012 operating results, only 101 thousand of these performance-based shares were earned. The remaining 500 thousand shares of performance-based restricted shares granted are subject to performance targets which will be measured following the completion of the 52 weeks ending January 31, 2015. These grants will vest immediately upon measurement to the extent earned. During the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012, the Company included compensation expense relating to the restricted share grants in the amount of $5.3 million and $4.3 million, respectively, in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of May 4, 2013, there was $48.1 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested restricted stock awards that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4 years.

4. | Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments |
Recurring Fair Value Measurements and Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value accounting guidance applies to our forward exchange contracts, foreign currency options and cross-currency swaps (together, the Foreign Currency Contracts), Company-owned life insurance policies with a cash surrender value and certain nonqualified deferred compensation liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to initial recognition.
Fair value accounting guidance requires disclosures that categorize assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the observability of the inputs employed in the measurement. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market-corroborated inputs. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability reflecting our assumptions about pricing by market participants.
We value our Foreign Currency Contracts, Company-owned life insurance policies with cash surrender values and certain nonqualified deferred compensation liabilities based on Level 2 inputs using quotations provided by major market news services, such as Bloomberg and The Wall Street Journal, and industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices, time value, volatility factors, and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. When appropriate, valuations are adjusted to reflect credit considerations, generally based on available market evidence.
The following table provides the fair value of our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheets (in millions):

The Company uses Foreign Currency Contracts to manage currency risk primarily related to intercompany loans denominated in non-functional currencies and certain foreign currency assets and liabilities. These Foreign Currency Contracts are not designated as hedges and, therefore, changes in the fair values of these derivatives are recognized in earnings, thereby offsetting the current earnings effect of the re-measurement of related intercompany loans and foreign currency assets and liabilities. The total gross notional value of derivatives related to our Foreign Currency Contracts was $686.7 million and $447.9 million as of May 4, 2013 and

We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We are exposed to counterparty credit risk on all of our derivative financial instruments and cash equivalent investments. The Company manages counterparty risk according to the guidelines and controls established under comprehensive risk management and investment policies. We continuously monitor our counterparty credit risk and utilize a number of different counterparties to minimize our exposure to potential defaults. We do not require collateral under derivative or investment agreements.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company records certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as required by GAAP. Generally, assets are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as a result of impairment charges. The Company did not record any significant impairment charges related to assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012.
Other Fair Value Disclosures
The Companys carrying value of financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, receivables, net and accounts payable approximates their fair value due to their short maturities.

5. | Debt |
On January 4, 2011, the Company entered into a $400 million credit agreement (the Revolver), which amended and restated, in its entirety, the Companys prior credit agreement entered into in October 2005 (the Credit Agreement). The Revolver provides for a five-year, $400 million asset-based facility, including a $50 million letter of credit sublimit, secured by substantially all of the Companys and its domestic subsidiaries assets. The Company has the ability to increase the facility, which matures in January 2016, by $150 million under certain circumstances. The extension of the Revolver to 2016 reduces our exposure to potential tightening or other adverse changes in the credit markets.
The availability under the Revolver is limited to a borrowing base which allows the Company to borrow up to 90% of the appraisal value of the inventory, in each case plus 90% of eligible credit card receivables, net of certain reserves. Letters of credit reduce the amount available to borrow by their face value. The Companys ability to pay cash dividends, redeem options and repurchase shares is generally permitted, except under certain circumstances, including if Revolver excess availability is less than 20%, or is projected to be within 12 months after such payment. In addition, if Revolver usage is projected to be equal to or greater than 25% of total commitments during the prospective 12-month period, the Company is subject to meeting a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1:1.0 prior to making such payments. In the event that excess availability under the Revolver is at any time less than the greater of (1) $40.0 million or (2) 12.5% of the lesser of the total commitment or the borrowing base, the Company will be subject to a fixed charge coverage ratio covenant of 1.1:1.0.
The Revolver places certain restrictions on the Company and its subsidiaries, including limitations on asset sales, additional liens, investments, loans, guarantees, acquisitions and the incurrence of additional indebtedness. Absent consent from its lenders, the Company may not incur more than $750 million of additional unsecured indebtedness to be limited to $250 million in general unsecured obligations and $500 million in unsecured obligations to finance acquisitions valued at $500 million or more. The per annum interest rate under the Revolver is variable and is calculated by applying a margin (1) for prime rate loans of 1.25% to 1.50% above the highest of (a) the prime rate of the administrative agent, (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% or (c) the London Interbank Offered (LIBO) rate for a 30-day interest period as determined on such day plus 1.00%, and (2) for LIBO rate loans of 2.25% to 2.50% above the LIBO rate. The applicable margin is determined quarterly as a function of the Companys average daily excess availability under the facility. In addition, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.375% or 0.50%, depending on facility usage, for any unused portion of the total commitment under the Revolver. As of May 4, 2013, the applicable margin was 1.25% for prime rate loans and 2.25% for LIBO rate loans, while the required commitment fee was 0.50% for the unused portion of the Revolver.
The Revolver provides for customary events of default with corresponding grace periods, including failure to pay any principal or interest when due, failure to comply with covenants, any material representation or warranty made by the Company or the borrowers proving to be false in any material respect, certain bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership events affecting the Company or its subsidiaries, defaults relating to certain other indebtedness, imposition of certain judgments and mergers or the liquidation of the Company or certain of its subsidiaries. As of May 4, 2013, total availability under the Revolver was $340.2 million, there were no borrowings outstanding and letters of credit outstanding totaled $9.0 million.
In September 2007, the Companys Luxembourg subsidiary entered into a discretionary $20.0 million Uncommitted Line of Credit (the Line of Credit) with Bank of America. There is no term associated with the Line of Credit and Bank of America may withdraw the facility at any time without notice. The Line of Credit is available to the Companys foreign subsidiaries for use primarily as a bank overdraft facility for short-term liquidity needs and for the issuance of bank guarantees and letters of credit to support operations. As of May 4, 2013, there were no cash overdrafts outstanding under the Line of Credit and bank guarantees outstanding totaled $4.8 million.

6. | Income Taxes |
The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states and foreign jurisdictions. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is currently examining the Companys U.S. income tax returns for the fiscal years ended on January 28, 2012, January 29, 2011, January 30, 2010, January 31, 2009, February 2, 2008 and February 3, 2007. The Company does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of these audits.
We accrue for the effects of uncertain tax positions and the related potential penalties and interest. There were no net material adjustments to our recorded liability for unrecognized tax benefits during the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013. It is reasonably possible that the amount of the unrecognized tax benefit with respect to certain of our unrecognized tax positions could significantly increase or decrease during the next 12 months. At this time, an estimate of the range of the reasonably possible outcomes cannot be made.
The income tax provisions for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012 are based upon managements estimate of the Companys annualized effective tax rate.
7. | Commitments and Contingencies |
In the ordinary course of the Companys business, the Company is, from time to time, subject to various legal proceedings, including matters involving wage and hour employee class actions and consumer class actions. The Company may enter into discussions regarding settlement of these and other types of lawsuits, and may enter into settlement agreements, if it believes settlement is in the best interest of the Companys stockholders. Management does not believe that any such existing legal proceedings or settlements, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

ITEM 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the information contained in our condensed consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto. Statements regarding future economic performance, managements plans and objectives, and any statements concerning assumptions related to the foregoing contained in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations constitute forward-looking statements. Certain factors, which may cause actual results to vary materially from these forward-looking statements, accompany such statements or appear in GameStops Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2013 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on April 3, 2013 (the Form 10-K), including the factors disclosed under Item 1A. Risk Factors.
General
GameStop Corp. (together with its predecessor companies, GameStop, we, us, our, or the Company) is the worlds largest multichannel video game retailer. We sell new and pre-owned video game hardware, physical and digital video game software, accessories, as well as PC entertainment software, new and pre-owned mobile and consumer electronics products and other merchandise primarily through our GameStop, EB Games and Micromania stores. As of May 4, 2013, we operated 6,544 stores in the United States, Australia, Canada and Europe. We also operate electronic commerce Web sites www.gamestop.com, www.ebgames.com.au, www.ebgames.co.nz, www.gamestop.ca, www.gamestop.it, www.gamestop.es, www.gamestop.ie, www.gamestop.de, www.gamestop.co.uk and www.micromania.fr. The network also includes: www.kongregate.com, a leading browser-based game site; Game Informer magazine, the leading multi-platform video game publication; Spawn Labs, a streaming technology company; a digital PC distribution platform available at www.gamestop.com/pcgames; iOS and Android mobile applications; and an online consumer electronics marketplace available at www.buymytronics.com.
Our fiscal year is composed of 52 or 53 weeks ending on the Saturday closest to January 31. The fiscal year ending February 1, 2014 (fiscal 2013) consists of 52 weeks and the fiscal year ended February 2, 2013 (fiscal 2012) consisted of 53 weeks.
Growth in the electronic game industry is generally driven by the introduction of new technology. Gaming consoles are typically launched in cycles as technological developments in both chip processing speeds and data storage provide significant improvements in advanced graphics, audio quality and other entertainment capabilities beyond video gaming. The current generation of consoles (the Sony PlayStation 3, the Microsoft Xbox 360 and the Nintendo Wii) were introduced between 2005 and 2007. The Nintendo 3DS was introduced in March 2011 and the Sony PlayStation Vita was introduced in February 2012. A new console cycle is developing as Nintendo launched the Wii U in November 2012 as the next generation of the Wii. Also, Sony and Microsoft have announced that the next generation of the PlayStation and Xbox, respectively, are expected to come to market by the holiday period of 2013. Typically, following the introduction of new video game platforms, sales of new video game hardware increase as a percentage of total sales in the first full year following introduction. As video game platforms mature, the sales mix attributable to complementary video game software and accessories, which generate higher gross margins, generally increases in the subsequent years. The net effect is generally a decline in gross margin percentage in the first full year following new platform releases and an increase in gross margin percentage in the years subsequent to the first full year following the launch period. The planned launches of the next-generation Sony PlayStation and Microsoft Xbox by the holiday period of 2013 will negatively impact our overall gross margin percentage in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013. Unit sales of maturing video game platforms are typically also driven by manufacturer-funded retail price reductions, further driving sales of related software and accessories. Historically, new hardware consoles are typically introduced every four to five years. However, the current generation of hardware consoles is now over six years old and consumer demand is declining. We have seen declines in new hardware and software sales in fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2013 before the next-generation product launches due to the age of the current console cycle. The introduction of new consoles, like the Wii U, or further price cuts on the current generation of consoles could partially offset these declines.

Table of Contents
We expect that future growth in the electronic game industry will also be driven by the sale of video games delivered in digital form and the expansion of other forms of gaming. We currently sell various types of products that relate to the digital category, including digitally downloadable content, Xbox LIVE, PlayStation and Nintendo network points cards, as well as prepaid digital and online timecards. We expect our sales of digital products to increase in fiscal 2013. We have made significant investments in e-commerce and in-store and Web site functionality to enable our customers to access digital content easily and facilitate the digital sales and delivery process. We plan to continue to invest in these types of processes and channels to grow our digital sales base and enhance our market leadership position in the electronic game industry and in the digital aggregation and distribution category. In fiscal 2011, we also launched our mobile business and began selling an assortment of tablets and accessories. We currently sell tablets and accessories in all of our stores in the United States and in a majority of stores in our international markets. We also sell and accept trades of pre-owned mobile devices in our stores. In addition, we intend to continue to invest in customer loyalty programs designed to attract and retain customers.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and do not include all disclosures required under GAAP for complete financial statements. Preparation of these statements requires management to make judgments and estimates. Some accounting policies have a significant impact on amounts reported in these financial statements. For a summary of significant accounting policies and the means by which we develop estimates thereon, see Item 7.

associated with purchases made by check and credit cards in cost of sales, rather than selling, general and administrative expenses, in the statement of operations. As a result of these classifications, our gross margins are not comparable to those retailers that include purchasing, receiving and distribution costs in cost of sales and include processing fees associated with purchases made by check and credit cards in selling, general and administrative expenses. The net effect of these classifications as a percentage of sales has not historically been material.

The decrease in net sales was primarily attributable to a decrease in comparable store sales of 6.7% and changes related to foreign exchange rates, which had the effect of decreasing sales by $6.1 million when compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease in comparable store sales was primarily due to a decrease in new video game hardware sales, pre-owned video game product sales and new video game software sales offset partially by an increase in other product sales. Refer to the note to the Selected Financial Data table in Item 6. Selected Financial Data in our Form 10-K for a discussion of the calculation of comparable store sales.

New video game hardware sales decreased $106.8 million, or 30.6%, from $348.6 million in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to $241.8 million in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013. The decrease in new video game hardware sales is primarily due to a decrease in hardware unit sell-through related to being in the late stages of the current console cycle and higher sales of the Sony PlayStation Vita in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 due to its launch during that quarter. These sales declines were offset partially by sales of the Nintendo Wii U which launched in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012. New video game software sales decreased $27.9 million, or 3.8%, from $731.1 million in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to $703.2 million in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 primarily due to declines in sales of catalog software due to the late stages of the console cycle, partially offset by stronger sales of new release video game titles in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 when compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Pre-owned video game product sales decreased $46.4 million, or 7.5%, from $619.0 million in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to $572.6 million in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013. The decrease in pre-owned video game product sales was primarily due to a decrease in store traffic related to lower video game demand due to the late stages of the current console cycle. Other product sales increased by $44.2 million, or 14.6%, from $303.5 million in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to $347.7 million in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013. The increase in other product sales was primarily due to increases in sales of mobile and digital products, offset partially by a decrease in accessories sales associated with hardware sales declines.
As a percentage of net sales, new video game hardware sales and pre-owned video game product sales decreased and new video game software sales and other product sales increased in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 compared to the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012. The change in the mix of sales was primarily due to the decreases in new video game hardware sales and pre-owned video game product sales and the increase in other product sales discussed above.
Cost of sales decreased by $115.3 million, or 8.2%, from $1,402.3 million in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to $1,287.0 million in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 as a result of the decrease in sales discussed above and the changes in gross profit discussed below.
Gross profit decreased by $21.6 million, or 3.6%, from $599.9 million in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to $578.3 million in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased from 30.0% in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to 31.0% in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013. The gross profit percentage increase was primarily due to the change in sales mix driven by the increase in other product sales, the decrease in new video game hardware sales as a percentage of total net sales and the increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales on new video game hardware products and new video game software products. Gross profit as a percentage of sales on new video game hardware increased from 6.6% in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to 8.4% in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 primarily due to an increase in the attachment rate of product replacement plan sales on new hardware units when compared to the prior year. Gross profit as a percentage of sales on new video game software increased slightly from 20.5% in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to 21.1% in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013. Gross profit as a percentage of sales on pre-owned video game products decreased from 49.1% in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to 47.3% in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 due to an increase in promotional activities when compared to the prior year. Gross profit as a percentage of sales on other product sales decreased slightly from 40.5% in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to 40.0% in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $8.8 million, or 2.0%, from $440.4 million in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to $449.2 million in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013. This increase was primarily due to the timing of promotional costs and other expenses offset partially by changes in foreign exchange rates which had the effect of decreasing expenses by $1.8 million when compared to fiscal 2012. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased from 22.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 to 24.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2013. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales was primarily due to deleveraging of fixed costs as a result of the decrease in comparable store sales. Included in selling, general and administrative expenses is $5.5 million and $5.0 million in stock-based compensation expense for the 13-week periods ended May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $2.6 million from $44.5 million in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to $41.9 million in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in capital expenditures in recent years when compared to prior years which included significant investments in our loyalty and digital initiatives, as well as a decrease in new store openings and investments in management information systems.
Interest income from the investment of excess cash balances decreased slightly from $0.2 million in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to $0.1 million in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013. Interest expense increased slightly from $0.6 million in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to $1.0 million in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013.
Income tax expense for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 and the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 was based upon managements estimate of the Companys annualized effective tax rate. Income tax expense was $31.7 million, or 36.7% of earnings before income tax expense, for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 compared to $42.2 million, or 36.8% of earnings before income tax expense, for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012.
The factors described above led to a decrease in operating earnings of $27.8 million, or 24.2%, from $115.0 million in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to $87.2 million in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, and a decrease in consolidated net income of $17.8 million, or 24.6%, from $72.4 million in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to $54.6 million in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013.
The $0.1 million net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 represents the portion of the minority interest stockholders net loss of the Companys non-wholly owned subsidiaries included in the Companys consolidated net income. The remaining noncontrolling interests were purchased during the second quarter of fiscal 2012.

United States
Segment results for the United States include retail operations in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and Guam, the electronic commerce Web site www.gamestop.com, Game Informer magazine, www.kongregate.com, a digital PC game distribution platform available at www.gamestop.com/pcgames, Spawn Labs and an online consumer electronics marketplace available at www.buymytronics.com. As of May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012, the United States segment included 4,329 and 4,434 GameStop stores, respectively. Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 decreased $106.4 million, or 7.3%, compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012 and comparable store sales decreased 6.9%. The decrease in comparable store sales was primarily due to a decrease in new video game hardware sales, pre-owned video game product sales and new video game software sales, offset partially by an increase in other product sales. The decrease in new video game hardware sales is primarily due to a decrease in hardware unit sell-through related to being in the late stages of the current console cycle and higher sales of the Sony PlayStation Vita in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 due to its launch during that quarter. These sales declines were offset partially by the sales of the Nintendo Wii U which launched in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease in new video game software sales is primarily due to declines in sales of catalog software due to the late stages of the console cycle, partially offset by stronger sales of new release video game titles in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 when compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease in pre-owned video game product sales was primarily due to a decrease in store traffic related to lower video game demand due to the late stages of the current console cycle. The increase in other product sales was primarily due to increases in sales of mobile and digital products, offset partially by a decrease in accessories sales associated with hardware sales declines. Segment operating income decreased by $22.4 million, or 19.4%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012, driven primarily by the decrease in comparable store sales.
Canada
Segment results for Canada include retail operations in Canada and their e-commerce site. Sales in the Canadian segment in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 decreased $9.6 million, or 9.8%, compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease in sales was primarily attributable to a decrease in comparable store sales of 6.2% and the impact of changes in exchange rates in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 when compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012, which had the effect of decreasing sales by $2.0 million. Excluding the impact of changes in exchange rates, sales in the Canadian segment decreased by 7.8%. The decrease in sales was primarily due to a decrease in store traffic related to lower video game demand due to the late stages of the current console cycle. The decrease in sales was partially offset by an increase in sales of mobile and digital products. As of May 4, 2013, the Canadian segment operated 335 stores compared to 343 stores as of April 28, 2012. Segment operating income for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 remained unchanged when compared to the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012.
Australia
Segment results for Australia include retail operations and e-commerce sites in Australia and New Zealand. As of May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012, the Australian segment operated 413 stores. Sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 increased 7.1% to $114.1 million compared to first quarter fiscal 2012 sales of $106.5 million. The increase in sales was primarily attributable to an increase in comparable store sales of 8.1% partially offset by the impact of changes in exchange rates in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 when compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012, which had the effect of decreasing sales by $1.9 million. Excluding the impact of changes in exchange rates, sales in the Australian segment increased 8.9%. The increase in comparable store sales was primarily due to an increase in market share of video game products and increases in sales of mobile and digital products.
Segment operating earnings increased $3.0 million to an operating income of $1.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to an operating loss of $1.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase in operating earnings was primarily due to the increase in comparable store sales and the leveraging of selling, general and administrative expense.

Europe
Segment results for Europe include retail store operations in 11 European countries and e-commerce sites in six countries. As of May 4, 2013, the European segment operated 1,467 stores compared to 1,424 stores as of April 28, 2012. For the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, European sales decreased $28.5 million, or 8.4%, compared to the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012. The decrease in sales was primarily due to a decrease in comparable store sales of 10.8% when compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012 and unfavorable exchange rates recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012, which had the effect of decreasing sales by $2.2 million. Excluding the effects of exchange rates, European segment sales decreased 7.8%. This decrease in sales was primarily due to the decrease in comparable store sales when compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012, offset by the additional sales at 43 net new stores opened since April 29, 2012. The decrease in comparable store sales was primarily due to a decrease in store traffic related to the late stages of the current console cycle.
The segment operating loss in Europe was $9.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to an operating loss of $1.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase in the operating loss in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was primarily due to the decrease in comparable store sales and an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses related to an increase in store count. In addition, the impact of changes in exchange rates had the effect of decreasing operating losses by $0.2 million for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 when compared to the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012.
Seasonality
The Companys business, like that of many retailers, is seasonal, with the major portion of the sales and operating profit realized during the fourth fiscal quarter which includes the holiday selling season.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flows
During the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, cash used in operations was $331.4 million compared to cash used in operations of $162.2 million during the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012. The increase in cash used in operations of $169.2 million was primarily due to an increase in cash used in operations for working capital which increased $144.8 million from $280.6 million in the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 to $425.4 million in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013. The increase in cash used in operations for working capital was due primarily to the change in cash related to accounts payable and accrued liabilities and the change in the payment of income taxes from year to year. The decrease in cash related to accounts payable and accrued liabilities for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 compared to the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 was primarily due to changes in the timing of trade payable payments. Our business is highly seasonal, with a disproportionate amount of sales occurring in the fourth quarter of each year. We purchase inventory in anticipation of these fourth quarter sales and, as a result, have higher accounts payable at year-end compared to the end of the first quarter. During the first quarter of each fiscal year, we have traditionally had a significant use of cash associated with the pay down of accounts payables from year-end. In addition, the leveraging of inventory and accounts payable is impacted by the amount of purchases during each quarter. Due to the late stages of the current console cycle, we have decreased purchases and our inventory mix is shifting towards more used products, including used mobile products. These factors also negatively impacted our accounts payable leverage during the quarter. In addition, the increase in cash used in operations was also attributed to a $24.4 million decrease in net income adjusted for noncash items.
Cash used in investing activities was $23.5 million and $22.1 million during the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012, respectively. During the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, $24.3 million of cash was used primarily to invest in information systems, invest in digital initiatives and open new stores and remodel existing stores in the U.S. and internationally. During the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012, $22.3 million of cash was used primarily to invest in information systems, invest in digital initiatives and open new stores and remodel existing stores in the U.S. and internationally.

Cash used in financing activities was $31.8 million and $140.9 million for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012, respectively. The cash used in financing activities for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 was primarily due to the payment of dividends on the Companys Class A Common Stock of $33.0 million and the repurchase of $25.5 million of treasury shares, offset partially by the cash received from the issuance of shares associated with stock option exercises of $25.7 million. The cash used in financing activities for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 was primarily due to the repurchase of $121.6 million of treasury shares and the payment of dividends on the Companys Class A Common Stock of $20.5 million.
Sources of Liquidity
We utilize cash generated from operations and have funds available to us under our revolving credit facility to cover seasonal fluctuations in cash flows and to support our various growth initiatives. Our cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and consist primarily of time deposits with highly rated commercial banks.
On January 4, 2011, the Company entered into a $400 million credit agreement (the Revolver), which amended and restated, in its entirety, the Companys prior credit agreement entered into in October 2005 (the Credit Agreement). The Revolver provides for a five-year, $400 million asset-based facility, including a $50 million letter of credit sublimit, secured by substantially all of the Companys and its domestic subsidiaries assets. The Company has the ability to increase the facility, which matures in January 2016, by $150 million under certain circumstances. The extension of the Revolver to 2016 reduces our exposure to potential tightening or other adverse changes in the credit markets.
The availability under the Revolver is limited to a borrowing base which allows the Company to borrow up to 90% of the appraisal value of the inventory, in each case plus 90% of eligible credit card receivables, net of certain reserves. Letters of credit reduce the amount available to borrow by their face value. The Companys ability to pay cash dividends, redeem options and repurchase shares is generally permitted, except under certain circumstances, including if Revolver excess availability is less than 20%, or is projected to be within 12 months after such payment. In addition, if Revolver usage is projected to be equal to or greater than 25% of total commitments during the prospective 12-month period, the Company is subject to meeting a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1:1.0 prior to making such payments. In the event that excess availability under the Revolver is at any time less than the greater of (1) $40.0 million or (2) 12.5% of the lesser of the total commitment or the borrowing base, the Company will be subject to a fixed charge coverage ratio covenant of 1.1:1.0.
The Revolver places certain restrictions on the Company and its subsidiaries, including limitations on asset sales, additional liens, investments, loans, guarantees, acquisitions and the incurrence of additional indebtedness. Absent consent from its lenders, the Company may not incur more than $750 million of additional unsecured indebtedness to be limited to $250 million in general unsecured obligations and $500 million in unsecured obligations to finance acquisitions valued at $500 million or more. The per annum interest rate under the Revolver is variable and is calculated by applying a margin (1) for prime rate loans of 1.25% to 1.50% above the highest of (a) the prime rate of the administrative agent, (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% or (c) the London Interbank Offered (LIBO) rate for a 30-day interest period as determined on such day plus 1.00%, and (2) for LIBO rate loans of 2.25% to 2.50% above the LIBO rate. The applicable margin is determined quarterly as a function of the Companys average daily excess availability under the facility. In addition, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.375% or 0.50%, depending on facility usage, for any unused portion of the total commitment under the Revolver. As of May 4, 2013, the applicable margin was 1.25% for prime rate loans and 2.25% for LIBO rate loans, while the required commitment fee was 0.50% for the unused portion of the Revolver.
The Revolver provides for customary events of default with corresponding grace periods, including failure to pay any principal or interest when due, failure to comply with covenants, any material representation or warranty made by the Company or the borrowers proving to be false in any material respect, certain bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership events affecting the Company or its subsidiaries, defaults relating to certain other indebtedness, imposition of certain judgments and mergers or the liquidation of the Company or certain of its

subsidiaries. As of May 4, 2013, total availability under the Revolver was $340.2 million, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Revolver and letters of credit outstanding totaled $9.0 million.
In September 2007, the Companys Luxembourg subsidiary entered into a discretionary $20.0 million Uncommitted Line of Credit (the Line of Credit) with Bank of America. There is no term associated with the Line of Credit and Bank of America may withdraw the facility at any time without notice. The Line of Credit is available to the Companys foreign subsidiaries for use primarily as a bank overdraft facility for short-term liquidity needs and for the issuance of bank guarantees and letters of credit to support operations. As of May 4, 2013, there were no cash overdrafts outstanding under the Line of Credit and bank guarantees outstanding totaled $4.8 million.
Uses of Capital
Our future capital requirements will depend on the number of new stores we open and the timing of those openings within a given fiscal year, as well as the investments we will make in e-commerce, digital and other strategic initiatives. The Company opened 59 stores in the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 and expects to open approximately 125 stores in fiscal 2013, including the 44 stores acquired in France during the first quarter. Capital expenditures for fiscal 2013 are projected to be approximately $135 million, to be used primarily to fund continued digital initiatives, new store openings, store remodels and invest in distribution and information systems in support of operations.
Since 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company has from time to time authorized the repurchase of our common stock. Our current authorization, made in November 2012, allows us to repurchase up to $500 million of shares. During the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, the Company repurchased 1.0 million shares for an average price per share of $25.07, leaving $399.8 million available under the November 2012 authorization. As of June 4, 2013, the Company has purchased an additional 1.4 million shares of its Class A Common Stock for an average price per share of $34.73 since May 4, 2013, leaving $349.8 million available under this authorization. The amounts, timing and prices of share repurchases that are effected under the Companys share repurchase programs, pursuant to such authorizations, are directed by the Companys senior management.
On February 8, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the initiation of a quarterly cash dividend to its stockholders of Class A Common Stock. The first quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share was paid on March 12, 2012. The first quarter fiscal 2013 quarterly cash dividend of $0.275 per share was paid on March 19, 2013. On May 21, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a quarterly cash dividend to its stockholders of $0.275 per share of Class A Common Stock payable on June 19, 2013 to stockholders of record at the close of business on June 4, 2013. Future dividends will be subject to approval by the Board of Directors of the Company.
Based on our current operating plans, we believe that available cash balances, cash generated from our operating activities and funds available under the Revolver will be sufficient to fund our operations, digital initiatives, store openings and remodeling activities and corporate capital expenditure programs, including the payment of dividends declared by the Board of Directors, for at least the next 12 months.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2013, an accounting standard update was issued providing guidance with respect to the release of cumulative translation adjustments into net income when a parent company sells either a part or all of an investment in a foreign entity. The accounting standard update requires the release of cumulative translation adjustments when a company no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a foreign subsidiary or a group of assets that constitutes a business within a foreign entity. This accounting standard update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect of this accounting standard update, but does not expect it to have a significant impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents
In February 2013, an accounting standard update was issued regarding disclosure of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. An entity is required to present either on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts not reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. This accounting standard update is effective for the Companys annual and interim periods beginning in fiscal 2013. The accounting standard update had no effect on the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements.
In July 2012, an accounting standard update was issued related to testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. The purpose of the update is to simplify the guidance for testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment and the update permits entities to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. Unless an entity determines, through its qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, it would not be required to calculate the fair value of the asset. This standard is effective for annual and interim impairment tests of indefinite-lived intangible assets performed in fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, and early adoption is permitted. This standard did not have an impact on our annual indefinite-lived asset impairment testing process in fiscal 2012 as we did not elect to perform a qualitative assessment. The adoption of this guidance may result in a change in how we perform our goodwill impairment assessment; however, it will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of terms such as anticipates, believes, continues, could, estimates, expects, intends, may, plans, potential, predicts, pro forma, seeks, should, will or similar expressions. These statements are only predictions based on current expectations and assumptions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our or our industrys actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise after the date of this Form 10-Q. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking events and circumstances contained in this Form 10-Q may not occur, causing actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or implied by our forward-looking statements.
ITEM 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
Interest Rate Exposure
We do not use derivative financial instruments to hedge interest rate exposure. We limit our interest rate risks by investing our excess cash balances in short-term, highly-liquid instruments with a maturity of one year or less. We do not expect any material losses from our invested cash balances, and we believe that our interest rate exposure is modest.
Foreign Currency Risk
The Company uses forward exchange contracts, foreign currency options and cross-currency swaps (together, the Foreign Currency Contracts) to manage currency risk primarily related to intercompany loans denominated in non-functional currencies and certain foreign currency assets and liabilities. The Foreign Currency Contracts are not designated as hedges and, therefore, changes in the fair values of these derivatives are recognized in earnings, thereby offsetting the current earnings effect of the re-measurement of related intercompany loans and foreign currency assets and liabilities. For the fiscal quarter ended May 4, 2013, the Company recognized a $9.4 million gain in selling, general and administrative expenses related to the trading of derivative instruments. These gains were partially offset by $8.8 million of losses on the re-measurement of related intercompany currency loans and foreign assets and liabilities for the fiscal quarter ended May 4, 2013. The aggregate fair value of the Foreign Currency Contracts as of May 4, 2013 was a net asset of $4.1 million as measured by observable inputs obtained from market news reporting services, such as Bloomberg and The Wall
25
Table of Contents
Street Journal, and industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices, time value, volatility factors, and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. A hypothetical strengthening or weakening of 10% in the foreign exchange rates underlying the Foreign Currency Contracts from the market rate as of May 4, 2013 would result in a (loss) or gain in value of the forwards, options and swaps of ($10.0) million or $10.0 million, respectively.
We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We are exposed to counterparty credit risk on all of our derivative financial instruments and cash equivalent investments. The Company manages counterparty risk according to the guidelines and controls established under comprehensive risk management and investment policies. We continuously monitor our counterparty credit risk and utilize a number of different counterparties to minimize our exposure to potential defaults. We do not require collateral under derivative or investment agreements.
ITEM 4. | Controls and Procedures |
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Companys management conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) at the reasonable assurance level. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Companys periodic reports.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in the Companys internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the Companys most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 1. | Legal Proceedings |
In the ordinary course of the Companys business, the Company is, from time to time, subject to various legal proceedings, including matters involving wage and hour employee class actions and consumer class actions. The Company may enter into discussions regarding settlement of these and other types of lawsuits, and may enter into settlement agreements, if we believe settlement is in the best interest of the Companys stockholders. Management does not believe that any such existing legal proceedings or settlements, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
ITEM 1A. Risk | Factors |
In addition to the other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2013 filed with the SEC on April 3, 2013. These risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and
26

results of operations. The risks described in our Form 10-K have not changed materially other than as set forth below:
The launch of next-generation consoles could negatively impact the demand for existing products or our pre-owned business.
The launch of next-generation consoles, the timing of the release and the features of such consoles, including any restrictions or conditions that may adversely affect our pre-owned business or the ability to play prior generation video games on such consoles, and the impact on demand for existing products following the announcement of the launch of next-generation consoles could have a negative impact on our sales and earnings.
These are not the only risks we face. Our operations could also be affected by additional factors that are not presently known to us or by factors that we currently consider immaterial to our business.
