Games Workshop Group PLC admitted 529 further ordinary shares on October 1, 2026, bringing the total number of shares in issue to 33,045,370, according to FT.

Share count rises by 529
The new shares were issued under the employee share scheme and admitted to the London Stock Exchange Main Market, the company announcement said on October 1, 2026. The transaction is small relative to the 33,045,370 shares outstanding, but it gives investors a precise update on the listed share base.
Dividend adds a cash signal
Games Workshop declared a GBp 70.00 per-share dividend for fiscal 2027 on September 16, 2026, taking dividends declared so far in that fiscal year to GBP 3.00, according to MarketScreener. The same update said trading through August 30 was in line with board expectations for the fiscal year ending in May.
That distribution sits against a strong fiscal 2026 operating base. According to Investing.com on September 16, 2026, revenue rose 10.90 percent to GBP 659.7 million for the 52 weeks ended May 31, 2026, while operating profit increased 5.30 percent to GBP 275.0 million. The comparison matters because licensing revenue fell from GBP 52.5 million to GBP 32.9 million during the same period, a decline of 37.33 percent calculated from the reported values.
Trading update keeps valuation in view
Games Workshop makes miniature wargames and related hobby products, with Warhammer as its central franchise. The September trading update supports the operating outlook, while the lower licensing contribution shows why the company remains sensitive to the timing of entertainment-related releases.
