They're both important, for different but related purposes. If the brand is doing well that suggests more investment in D&D, good things for employees and for releases.
Didn't the slideshow show D&D up 54% for the fourth quarter and 76% for the full year? Am I misreading that?
The slides how is more spin. Doesn't mean they're lying more best foot forward.
The financial report is the legacy mandated financials.
Tabletop was down 2% overall (Magic plus D&D) with the biggest selling magic set ever. They turned it into lottery/loot box to do that.
My takeaway is D&D has plateaued probably a while ago but it's not Doom and gloom Hasbro is dying. Expect those videos tomorrow.
Hasbros has a bad year it happens. I suspect they'll pivot to digital more.
