[QUOTE="mamba, post: 9645174, member: 7034611"] Looking forward to it, hopefully with an explanation hoe to get there. The more I look at their quarterly report, the less sense it makes to me We have this for WotC [ATTACH type="full" alt="1745553486031.png"]403428[/ATTACH] and the below for WotC + Digital Gaming [ATTACH type="full" alt="1745553508522.png"]403429[/ATTACH] Given that the category in the second image is is 'WotC and Digital Gaming', I would assume that its 'Tabletop Gaming' is the same as 'Wizards Tabletop' from the first image, but then why do the growth percentages not match... so there is something in 'Digital Gaming' (not Wizards) that falls under 'Tabletop Gaming' somehow... Here are my assumptions and math, shoot holes in it if you find any 1) Given that MtG grew by 45%, I expect that MtG is entirely under Wizards Tabletop. If any of it were under Wizards Digital, that should have grown by more than 1%. 2) For consistency I assume the same is true for D&D, i.e. even DDB is under Tabletop, not under Digital. 3) Wizards Tabletop consists of everything MtG and everything D&D, nothing else - or at least anything else is minor and does not affect the calculation much 4) MtG makes 5 times as much revenue as D&D, I believe that is about right with MtG being 1B and D&D being around 200M Given this, the math is 5 * 1.45 + 1 * x = 6 * 1.37 x = (6 * 1.37) / (5 * 1.45) x = 1.1379 So D&D grew by 13.8%, Obviously this is a rough estimate as the actual ratio between MtG and D&D has a big impact on this percentage. If MtG were 4 times D&D, the D&D growth rate would be 18.1% instead. Also keep in mind that all of this is a snapshot for one quarter, sales in a quarter will be up or down dramatically compared to the same quarter the prior year based on when products were released and how well they did. To drive this point home, here is 4Q 2024 where MtG was down a lot because of a missing set release compared to 4Q 2023 [ATTACH type="full" alt="1745554926121.png"]403436[/ATTACH] So MtG down around 15% in 4Q 2024, but up 45% in 1Q 2025 compared to the same quarter a year before, these are wild swings.
