GameStop finishes $1.5B raise to add Bitcoin to its balance sheet

GameStops board had greenlit an investment in Bitcoin and US-dollar-pegged stablecoins using the convertible debt offering and cash reserves on March 25.
Video game retailer GameStop Corporation (GME) has finished a convertible debt offering that raised $1.5 billion, with some proceeds earmarked for buying Bitcoin.
The offering was initially set to raise at least $1.3 billion, but purchasers opted for an additional $200 million aggregate principal amount of notes, GameStop said in an April 1 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The company expects to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including the acquisition of Bitcoin in a manner consistent with the Companys Investment Policy, GameStop added.
