Scott Preston (Maven Group LLC) on GameStop

SumZero Headlines

This week, we sat down with Scott Preston, founder and CEO of Maven Group LLC, to dissect the GameStop saga and provide the fundamentally-driven narrative not being covered by major media outlets. According to Preston, who has held GME intermittently over the past decade, GameStop is a sound business with several growth opportunities and innovative leadership. In the last several years, management has moved to reshape the business model and consumer experience for modern day gaming. GameStop is no longer reliant on console cycles but actively expanding into eSports, direct-to-consumer marketing, social gaming, and rewards programs that promise substantial runway for recapitalization. The retail investor phenomenon and associated press have certainly helped raise GME's profile but they have not changed the fundamental value drivers that investors like Preston observe.
