Foolish take

Range Financial Group buying Hasbro stock is a move that merits attention. It's the start of the wealth management company's investment in the toymaker, suggesting Hasbro shares may be a buy.

Through the first half of 2025, Hasbro saw 7% year-over-year revenue growth to $1.9 billion thanks to the strength of its Wizards of the Coast and digital product sales. But what may have galvanized Range Financial's investment was Hasbro bumping up its full-year revenue guidance to the mid-single digits in constant currency.

Another contributing factor to Range Financial deciding to start a position in Hasbro is the toy giant's robust dividend, currently sporting an attractive 3.7% yield.

Despite the sales growth, Hasbro is not profitable. The company took a goodwill impairment charge exceeding $1 billion in Q2, resulting in an operating loss of $627.5 million in the first half of 2025 compared to operating income of $328.3 million last year. Macroeconomic conditions, such as rising tariffs, contributed to the goodwill charge.

Hasbro's big revenue quarter is Q4, thanks to the holiday gift-giving season. If its sales do well there, the stock could rise. Range Financial initiating a position in the company displays confidence that the stock's total returns, including its dividend, is worth the investment.

Hasbro's trade policy headwinds won't last forever, and its ability to grow revenue in this environment suggests stronger sales growth may lie ahead.
