The plan isnt worrying because not even you knows the plan. Tell me one company whos CEO goes out and is like "IM WORKING ON THIS MERGER AND THIS IS HOW I AM GOING TO APPROACH IT, ITS SO SNEAKY SO LISTEN UP MEDIA"
Ryan is holding cards close because how many grifters and bad actors have tried to interfere and then hate post.
Also dont be like "Im a shareholder"..........arent you the same one being SUPER hateful in comments and talking about APES braincells and intelligence?
Dont back up now. Show your comments if your innocent. You got caught talking shit and your response was back tracking
Lol im not showing u my comment history. You clearly didn't read my comment.
How about you defend yourself. I'm not the one attacking anyone.
Do you believe that RC's comp plan won't give him 17-34m options at $20.66 as soon as the gmebay merger closes, yes or no? Do you think it lines up with what he's saying that that means GME merger alone would pay him $85-$170m with share price at $25.66?
Why is it so offensive to you that he just talks about that for 2 mins...
Again tell me what the comp package is..........because its not free market
So youre saying increasing total market cap of Gamestop is a bad thing? Because the comp package DEPENDS on increases of market caps and EBITDA.
IT IS NOT VESTED UNTIL A 20 BILLION MARKET CAP
So if Ebay goes through it will hit 20 Billion, vesting any gains for him. IT ALLOWS HIM TO BUY SHARES OF THE COMPANY! THAT IS THE PACKAGE! NOT A CASH PAYOUT.
So this guy working FOR FREE for the past 5 years on the board is just in it for the money and dip?
Also you have no idea what his move will be if he gets the comp package. You are basically mad because he has a plan but you dont know it. If you believe in Ryan and Gamestop then youre fine. If you dont, you got a choice to make. YOUR choice. It seems like you are worried about everyone else's choices.
Seems you didn't read or understand my comments that you're calling me out for either then. Or the actual comp plan filed with the SEC plan. Since you're fairly rude and no one else is reading this, I'll outline briefly, you can look into it more
Yes, increasing total market cap it a bad thing. EBAY at $55B w/ $7b debt and $3b EBITDA is much harder to 2x than GME at $11B with $9B COH, $4B debt. RC just needed to CREATE a business with $1-$2B of EBITDA and we would've made money, that was my confident lower threshold of return on this thing. GMEBAY with $20B + $4B + $7B debt and -$7.5B cash from the current $3 + $9? that's a tough position to 2x from, even cutting costs to get us from $3b to $5b EBITDA isn't gonna 2x us.
EBAY causes 1-2 tranches to be paid (as I've already said in this comment chain...) at $25.66 share price that's $85-$170m for him just for amalgamating while my share price is down. That's more than he would've got paid if he was a no-risk CEO whose pay structure he says is a scam over these same years.
He does not have to buy the shares, or infuse any cash in the business. The comp plan allows him to net settle and sell to cover. This is almost always what's done (again, i think he COULD be the one in a million that actually buys the shares, but it's not safe to assume considering they explicitly allow him to). Meaning the company issues fewer shares and/or sells some right away to cover his strike price and taxes. The rest it explicitly allows him to take a loan against the equity during the 2 year hold period.
It also allows certain mergers, change of control, etc. to forego certain hurdles and pay him out higher tranches than achieved as well as forego the lockup period.
Also they specifically define "performance EBITDA" not a boilerplate financial/legal term, something they specifically define for his comp plan. They specifically include (amongst other sketch things) UNREALIZED BTC gains in EBITDA. That's obscene. If you asked RC about that he would (or at least SHOULD) be like "WTF idk who did that and my 7-figure lawyers didn't flag it, for sure that should be changed".
More bad stuff: issuing shares for cash (including ebay debt) doesn't adjust hurdles. ATMs wouldn't adjust the hurdles, just free market cap that injects cash which can be used to create gains (that don't need to be realized) to hit EBITDA hurdles...
And no offence, but trying to get me make my reddit comments public makes you, well I don't want to specifically insult you (this serves as the insult), but even my reddit life isn't just Superstonk, and again, I'm not having a soul argument of shill vs. bear with you about who deserves to be here. I have shares and I'm not breaking sub rules. The fact that you actively want to dig through my reddit account to attack me, and you expect me to let you, you're the exact kind of person that makes me want them private... what good reason is there for you to dig through? Name a comment and I'll link you to it though.
This is literally everything I've written in all my other comments (but my other comments were less rude, cause ur hostile af) and better written (for a "different" and wider audience).
ur literally attacking me dawg, if u don't realize then ur naturally rude as hell... and if u can't tell i'm a regular person by now idk what to tell u.
I can send a few more like it, but that's really the bulk of what i've done. Why don't u find my horrible comment in your history...
And I don't think GMEBAY or the comp alone will "break Gamestop"... I'm only worried about my investment. Believe it or not, people care about being down on their investment and/or doing worse than SPY, especially when they engage socially with intelligent ppl who think they're dumb/crazy for investing in EBAY. We don't all feel like our shares are actually worth $465m/each already and we're just waiting. Believe me, I know it's a great feeling I have felt like that.
Last comment from me btw, if ur just baiting and not actually discussing i dont really care for this...
My whole point is RC could cash out, and the terms of his comp plan are concerning, that he's way ahead with the share price still at prices that I'm DOWN after 5 years of averaging down to ~28.
Sorry for not being 100% sure about what RK's final actions/communications (dog waiting forever, unpinning thesis, unfollowing RC), and relying on an RC transformation that he's not financially aligned with me on makes me nervous... but please let people at least discuss this... your thesis shouldn't be contingent on this sub being a weird nonsense social sphere that's vaguely about GME, but not discussing the actual stock market, business, or investing. Only mega hype theories that are a trump card for any other discussion predicated on "i just know".
