What the Analysts think about GAW
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Games Workshop Group stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Games Workshop Group stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Core sales rose 10.9% to a record £626.8 million in FY26, while core operating profit grew 15.7% and the margin widened to 39.1%. That shows the miniatures business can grow profitably even when licensing income falls. (Investegate)
Games Workshop is extending its reach through independent retailers and new stores: trade sales grew 18.3% at constant currency, its global trade outlet count rose by about 1,000, and it plans around 30 store openings in FY27. This gives the core business more routes to find new customers. (Investegate)
Its entertainment projects offer a longer-term route to bring Warhammer to a wider audience and create licensing opportunities. Games Workshop says work has begun on a Deathwatch animated series, and Variety reported the Amazon project is in development. (Investegate, Variety)
US tariffs are expected to add about £13 million in annual costs in FY27, and the company also flagged roughly £2 million of extra plastic costs. Price rises and operational changes may soften the hit, but the pressures could still weigh on margins. (Reuters)
Licensing revenue fell 37% to £32.9 million in FY26 after the exceptional prior-year contribution, and two licensing partners ended their deals. Because these royalties depend on third-party projects and releases, the income can be volatile and difficult for Games Workshop to control. (Investegate)
Edison’s July research put Games Workshop on 32.8 times forecast FY27 earnings, above its 23.7 times FY20–FY26 average, while forecasting FY27 pre-tax profit below FY26’s result. If growth disappoints, the premium valuation leaves room for a share-price re-rating. (Edison Group)
