Quick Ratio

GameStop’s current Quick Ratio of 8.67x means the company has $8.67 in liquid assets (cash, receivables, and marketable securities) for every $1 of short-term liabilities, showing a very strong ability to pay near-term debts.

This ratio massively exceeds the Consumer Cyclical sector median of 0.75x, placing GameStop in the 98th percentile among peers—far above typical liquidity levels. However, the metric has been declining over the last eight quarters; the quarter-over-quarter change is -11.5%, and a year-over-year figure is not available. The combination of a very high ratio with a decreasing trend suggests that while liquidity risk remains extremely low, the company may be deploying excess cash or reducing cash holdings, which could signal a shift in capital allocation rather than a sudden liquidity problem. This dynamic supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict: the strong liquidity floor is a positive, but the persistent decline prevents an outright bullish call.
