The common stock shares of the original Bed Bath & Beyond, Inc. were officially cancelled and extinguished on September 29, 2023, following the company's Chapter 11 bankruptcy liquidation. The original corporate entity subsequently changed its legal shell name to DK-Butterfly-1, Inc., completely wiping out previous equity holders as the business assets were sold off. (Note: A completely separate corporate entity—formerly known as Overstock and later Beyond, Inc.—reclaimed the legal name and ticker symbol BBBY on the New York Stock Exchange in August 2025, but this represents a new enterprise with no financial continuity for old shareholders).
