GameStop called its 2026 annual meeting of stockholders for Jul 7, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. Central Daylight Time, with holders of GameStop shares at the close of business on May 20, 2026 entitled to vote. The agenda included electing five directors, a vote on a performance-based stock option award for chief executive Ryan Cohen, and an amendment raising GameStop's authorized Class A common shares to 2,500,000,000. In its letter to stockholders, the board said Cohen would receive nothing unless GameStop's market capitalization more than doubled to a sustained $20 billion while the business also generated billions in cumulative earnings.
