GameStop may not have successfully courted eBay but the retailer reported its biggest quarter on record.

GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen shared few details when he said he would do "whatever we need to do" to buy eBay after the e-commerce company rejected his $56 billion unsolicited takeover bid as "neither credible nor attractive." In early May, Cohen offered eBay's board $125 a share as well as his services as CEO. Half the offer was in cash and half in stock, with the cash portion coming from GameStop's $9.4 billion in cash reserves.
GameStop asked its shareholders to approve an increase in its share count. The video game retailer made the request in a Friday letter to shareholders, in which the company's board also proposed giving its chief executive, Ryan Cohen, a 100% performance-based option award. "A reserve of authorized shares ensures GameStop can act decisively when the right opportunity arises," the company said in the letter.
Investing.com -- GameStop has increased its stake in eBay to approximately 6.6% from around 5%, according to a regulatory filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Wednesday.
GameStop has increased its stake in eBay to about 6.55%, the videogame retailer disclosed in a filing on Tuesday, days after the e-commerce company rejected its $56 billion takeover bid. GameStop previously owned around a 5% stake in eBay and some analysts said its CEO Ryan Cohen could eventually push for a special shareholder meeting or seek board representation more supportive of his proposal. In an interview with journalist Piers Morgan last week, Cohen had said eBay's board had a responsibility to engage with his offer in the best interests of shareholders, adding that "we'll do whatever we need to do" if it failed to do so.
GameStop said in a filing last night that it now controls the equivalent of 6.55% of the company’s outstanding shares, up from around 5%, as it keeps trying to take over the e-commerce business. Shares in both GameStop and eBay are little changed in premarket trading.
