Gate's Straight to IPO Season 2:

Jersey Mike's (JMKE) IPO Access

Gate has officially launched Straight to IPO Season 2, giving eligible users another opportunity to participate in a U.S. initial public offering through its IPO Access platform.

Following the first IPO campaign, the second project features Jersey Mike's Subs (NYSE:

JMKE), one of the largest sandwich restaurant chains in the United States. The subscription period is scheduled from July 27, 2026, 02:00 UTC to July 29, 2026, 02:00 UTC, allowing users to subscribe with USDT or GUSD. The IPO price range is $21–$25 per share, and participation starts from $100, making the offering accessible to a wider range of users.

Founded in 1956, Jersey Mike's has grown into one of the leading quick-service restaurant brands in North America with more than 3,300 locations across the United States and Canada.

The company operates primarily through a franchise model, with approximately 99% of its restaurants independently franchised, creating a business structure that generates recurring royalty income while requiring relatively limited capital investment from the parent company. In 2025, the company reported approximately $4.3 billion in system-wide sales, while its loyalty program expanded to more than 12.5 million active members, supported by increasing digital ordering and customer engagement.

In 2024, global investment firm Blackstone acquired a majority ownership stake in Jersey Mike's in a transaction valued at approximately $8 billion. The company now plans to list on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker JMKE, with an offering of approximately 43.5 million shares that could raise as much as $1.09 billion if priced at the top of the indicated range.

Based on the proposed pricing, Jersey Mike's could achieve a market valuation close to $7.9 billion.

According to the publicly available prospectus, approximately 68% of the shares offered in the IPO are existing shares being sold by current shareholders, while the remaining proceeds will go to the company. Jersey Mike's has stated that a significant portion of the funds it receives is expected to be used for repayment of acquisition-related debt. Following the offering, Blackstone is expected to remain the controlling shareholder, retaining a majority of the company's voting power.

Gate's IPO Access platform allows users to participate using either USDT or GUSD, with separate subscription pools for each asset. The minimum subscription amount is 100 USDT or 100 GUSD, while the maximum subscription amount is 500,000 USDT or 500,000 GUSD. The allocation process is based on the platform's published rules, and an indication subscription does not guarantee that shares will be allocated. Final allocations depend on the number of shares made available to the platform and the applicable allocation methodology.

The platform has also announced that GUSD subscriptions are eligible for an estimated 3.8% APR during the holding period. According to the published event rules, if no allocation is received for the USDT subscription pool, eligible users may receive an interest subsidy based on the platform's stated terms and conditions.

Participants should carefully review the official event rules for complete details.

One feature highlighted by the platform is that allocated shares are expected to be credited directly to eligible users' Gate Stock Accounts, and the event states that there is no lock-up period for shares obtained through this subscription process. Trading is expected to begin after the company's public listing, subject to market conditions and the official listing schedule.

The Jersey Mike's IPO also reflects a broader trend in financial markets, where digital asset platforms are expanding access to selected traditional financial products. By supporting IPO participation through stablecoins, Gate provides another method for eligible users to access selected public market offerings within its platform ecosystem.

As with any public offering, interested participants should read the official prospectus, review the event rules, understand the allocation process, and evaluate the available information before making any decision.
