Retail Darling GameStop Jumps In Value Ranking With Massive Cashpile And BTC Holdings Despite Mixed Q3

GameStop Corp. (NYSE:GME) has seen a notable shift in its fundamental profile this week, with its Benzinga Edge’s Stock Rankings‘ value score jumping from the 56th percentile to 65.34 week-on-week.

Assets Outshine Revenue Miss

The video game retailer's stock price has slid 4.8% over the last five sessions following a mixed third-quarter earnings report.

However, the divergence between its falling market cap and its fortress balance sheet has made the stock mathematically more attractive to value-oriented models.

The spike in GameStop’s value score—a metric that evaluates a stock's worth by comparing its market price to fundamental measures like assets and operating performance—is largely driven by its substantial liquidity.

Despite missing Wall Street revenue estimates with $821 million in sales, the company holds a massive $8.8 billion in cash and approximately $519 million in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) on its balance sheet.

As the stock price trends downward, currently trading near $21.50, the ratio of the company’s price relative to these hard assets improves. This dynamic explains why the value ranking rose even as investors reacted negatively to the 4.5% year-over-year sales decline.

Growth Remains High, Momentum Lags

While the value score improves, the market sentiment remains cautious. Benzinga Edge’s Stock Ranking data shows GameStop's momentum score sits at a low 19.46, reflecting the stock's negative price trend across short, medium, and long timeframes.

However, the company continues to score exceptionally well in growth, holding a 98.19th percentile ranking. This suggests that while near-term price action is bearish, the company's historical expansion in earnings and its massive capital reserves are keeping it firmly on the radar for fundamental investors.
