Overstock Reports Voting Results of Annual Meeting of Stockholders

Shareholders re-elect Barbara H. Messing, Robert J. Shapiro, and Joseph J. Tabacco to continue to serve on the Board of Directors.
Conversion of Series A-1 and Series B preferred stock into common stock approved.

SALT LAKE CITY, May 12, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Overstock.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:OSTK), a leading home furnishings e-commerce retailer, today announced voting results of the shareholder proposals considered at its annual meeting of stockholders held on Thursday, May 12, 2022. Shareholders voted in favor of re-electing Barbara H. Messing, Robert J. Shapiro, and Joseph J. Tabacco to the Board of Directors, and converting the Series A-1 and Series B preferred stock into common stock. Shareholders also ratified the appointment of KPMG LLP as the company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year 2022.

“I’m pleased that our shareholders overwhelmingly voted to re-elect Barb, Rob, and Joe,” said Overstock CEO Jonathan Johnson. “These three directors have such a wealth of corporate experience, impressive qualifications, and acute judgment. I appreciate how they continually inspire me and add valued insight to our company decisions.”

Shareholders also voted to approve the company’s proposed conversion of the Digital Voting Series A-1 Preferred Stock (OSTKO) (the “Series A-1”) and Voting Series B Preferred Stock (OSTBP) (the “Series B”) into shares of the company’s common stock (OSTK) (the “Conversion”). “Going from three classes of stock to one will greatly simplify our capital structure going forward,” said Johnson.

The company will now begin the process to convert the Series A-1 and Series B shares into common stock, working with its transfer agent, applicable broker-dealers, and the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC). The Conversion will become effective upon the filing of the Certificates of Amendment to the certificates of designation for the Series A-1 and Series B shares with the Delaware Secretary of State, which the company expects to complete on June 10, 2022. The Series A-1 and Series B shares will cease trading at market close on June 10, 2022, and the company will complete any other required regulatory filings to effect the Conversion on that date.

The voting results announced today are considered preliminary until final results are tabulated and certified by the independent Inspector of Elections. The final results will be filed in a Current Report on Form 8-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and will be made available on the company’s investor website.
