tZERO to Enable Secondary Trading of Tokenized Overstock IP Securities

tZERO Group, Inc., a leader in tokenization infrastructure, announced today that securities issued by Commercial Strategies, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Bed Bath and Beyond, Inc., will begin secondary trading on the tZERO Securities Alternative Trading System (ATS). Orders will be accepted starting at noon today, with trading set to commence on May 26, 2026.

The tokenized securities represent an innovative approach to monetizing and distributing participation in the intellectual property associated with the Overstock.com brand. Initially offered through a Regulation Crowdfunding (Reg CF) primary issuance on the tZERO platform in 2025, the securities will now be tradable on tZERO’s regulated marketplace, offering eligible investors a new avenue for liquidity and price discovery.

Commercial Strategies, Inc. focuses on tokenizing intellectual property tied to the Overstock brand, with a model designed to align brand affinity with economic participation. Token holders are entitled to receive an annual pro rata dividend derived from 1% of the net sales from Overstock.com, subject to lawful ability to pay and if declared.

‘Our goal has been to find innovative ways to maximize the value of our intellectual property and truly align our brand’s growth with our community,’ said Marcus Lemonis, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Bed Bath and Beyond, Inc. ‘We partnered with tZERO to tokenize the Overstock brand’s IP to give our community a unique, non-dilutive opportunity to participate directly in the brand’s turnaround. We look forward to expanding our community through compliant secondary trading.’

Alan Konevsky, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of tZERO, added, ‘This is a compelling example of how tokenization can expand the scope of investable assets. By enabling secondary trading of these securities on regulated infrastructure, we are supporting both investor access and issuer flexibility in bringing novel asset classes to market.’

The tokenized securities were issued by Commercial Strategies, Inc. under the Bed Bath and Beyond, Inc. corporate umbrella and reflect continued exploration of tokenized ownership structures tied to brand-driven revenue streams. tZERO’s broker-dealer and ATS platform facilitate secondary trading of tokenized securities, combining blockchain-based settlement with established regulatory frameworks. The addition of Commercial Strategies, Inc.’s tokenized Series A Preferred Stock trading further demonstrates the platform’s ability to support diverse asset types, including intellectual property-linked securities.
