Overall, it’s pretty clear that Games Workshop is having a record year so far. The only area that took any sort of a downturn was their Retail sales which can clearly be attributed to the Global Pandemic. On the flip side, their online sales have exploded compared to the previous year. Gee, I wonder if those things could be linked in any way.
The first part of their fiscal year is looking really strong. Now we’re going to have to wait and see if GW can continue the pace through the end of their fiscal year. They have some tough challenges ahead as we’ve already seen some delays in their release schedule in December/January/February. But I think they are at least planning ahead to tackle those logistical issues – so wait and see!
Have fun with this one – and remember NO CHAIRS – be nice!
