2
接收到的數據缺少付費價值,我們的團隊使用一個公式計算付款金額。所使用的公式提供了門診服務的費率,並根據行業標準商業費率中排名第95百分位的習慣性費率推導出來,如果該數據不可用,則使用數據中存在的開單金額。然後根據習慣的 Medicare 調整來調整這些金額,以確定計算的付款金額。管理層認爲,該公式提供了 Medicare 付款金額率的保守估計,基於行業研究顯示私人保險公司和 Medicare 門診服務費率之間差異範圍。我們定期更新該公式,以增強計算的付款金額,如果從我們的委託人那裏接收到的數據中未提供該信息。管理層認爲,這一措施爲潛在收回提供了有用的基線,但並不代表可能收回的潛在可收回索賠的總金額,而後者可能受到任何適用潛在法定索賠(如雙倍賠償金或罰款)的影響。該計算考慮了總付款金額的約6.86%增加。在必須推斷付款金額以確定損害賠償金的情況下,對手方可能對計算的金額提出異議;

“公共認股權證“意味着僅在無現金基礎上可行使的warrants,用於購買1/25的一股A類普通股(但只能按25份的批次行使以購買完整的分享),根據其條款,如第3節中更詳細說明的那樣, 業務組合包含在本季度報告其他部分的簡明合併基本報表中;
“PVPRC” 指可能可收回的索賠的累計支付金額價值。我們分析我們的索賠組合,並使用算法確定可能可追回的索賠。PVPRC 是衡量這些可能可收回的索賠的已支付金額的指標。在從我們的轉讓人那裏收到的數據缺乏支付價值的有限情況下,適用支付金額定義中描述的調整公式,將PVPRC增加約6.33%;
“追回款項“指的是,關於任何索賠,任何和所有的總收入,包括賠償、利息、罰款和費用,這些可能與該索賠有關(包括由被告或第三方在訴訟程序中爲滿足該索賠而支付或發行的任何和所有現金、證券、工具或其他財產);

附註1. 業務描述
2022年5月23日(「結案日期」),MSP Recovery, Inc.,即LifeWallet,一個特拉華州公司(前身爲獅心收購公司II(「LCAP」)),完成了先前宣佈的業務組合,根據2021年7月11日簽署的特定會員權益購買協議(「MIPA」)及其修訂版本(以下簡稱「MIPA」),簽署方包括公司、公司的全資子公司Lionheart II Holdings, LLC、MSP Recovery, LLC和合並和整合的附屬公司(「Legacy MSP」)、Legacy MSP的成員(「成員」)和成員代表約翰·H·魯伊茲。根據MIPA,成員出售並轉讓了在Legacy MSP中的所有會員權益,換取公司的非經濟普通股<Class V普通股,幣值$,公司的「Class V Common Stock」)以及Opco的無投票經濟性的Class b Units(「Class b Units」,每對由一個share of Class V Common Stock和一個Class b Unit組成的Up-C Unit)(此交易稱爲「業務組合」)。 Up-C Units可由Up-C Unit持有人自行轉換爲公司的Class A Common Stock,並經董事會批准。有關詳情請參見附註3。 結案日期後,公司唯一的資產是其持有的MSP Recovery, LLC的股權。 公司是經營成員,因此對Legacy MSP進行合併。
Legacy MSP於2014年成立,是一家醫療和醫療補助法案(Medicaid and Medicare Secondary Payer Act)恢復專家。 該公司利用其專有的內部數據分析平台,審核由次級支付者(如健康計劃、MSO、醫療服務提供者和獨立醫師協會)分配的健康索賠。 該平台使公司能夠確定具有潛在恢復路徑的索賠費用恢復權利,其中索賠費用不應由次級支付者支付,或者應該由第三方實體退款。
MSP Recovery被指定通過CCRA從次級付款人那裏獲得索賠的回收權。在執行CCRA之前,MSP Recovery利用其專有的內部數據分析平台查看擬分配人的索賠集合,以識別具有潛在回收路徑的索賠。MSP Recovery的資產是這些不可撤銷的廣泛的健康索賠回收權分配,受聯邦和州法律法規支持。MSP Recovery的辦公室位於美國和波多黎各。
對經營資本信貸設施的修正
2023年3月29日,公司子公司Subrogation Holdings及其母公司MSP Recovery簽署了經營資本信貸設施,承諾最多撥款
此外,公司保留了與第三方出售新債權並僅在總考慮金額高於HPH同意金額(「Hazel底價」)的情況下進行貨幣化的權利,所得款項用於:(1)償還營運徵收層,(2)在所得款項超過Hazel底價的情況下,
根據營運資本信貸計劃(x),所借金額和義務受到公司索賠組合中某些索賠收入的質押擔保,且用於擔保購貨貸款的留置權次於用於擔保營運資本信貸計劃的留置權。
爲了擔保從2024年1月開始的Term Loan b的額外融資,提供了以下額外抵押品:(i)對公司索賠組合中某些索賠收入的質押,最高可達$
9
金額 通過操作收款底面提供資金的部分由新索賠作爲抵押。根據《營運資本信貸便利》第3號修正案,HPH將在以下情況下完全解除抵押和個人擔保:(x) 操作收款底面的本金已完全償還(包括任何原始發行折扣),或(y) 截至2024年12月31日的操作收款底面上提取的金額已完全償還(以提取和融資爲基礎),以此日期爲準。
根據操作收款底面,公司在以下日期獲得: (i) 2024年8月2日,$
不符合納斯達克上市要求通知
2024年6月7日,公司收到納斯達克上市資格工作人員(「工作人員」)的通知,告知公司未能符合納斯達克的買盤價格要求,因爲公司A類普通股的收盤買盤價格已低於$
如果公司在此180天的合規期內未能恢復合規,公司可能有資格將其上市轉移到納斯達克資本市場,以利用該市場提供的額外180天合規期,前提是公司滿足公開持股的市場價值持續上市要求及納斯達克所有其他適用的初始上市標準,並在第二個合規期內提供書面通知,表明其打算解決該缺陷。如果工作人員認爲公司無法解決該缺陷,或公司其他方面不符合條件,則會收到書面通知,告知其證券將面臨退市。在此情況下,公司可以根據適用的納斯達克上市規則,向聽證委員會上訴退市決定。
近期和解
2024年7月16日,公司與一組關聯的財產和意外險保險公司(「P&C保險公司」)達成全面和解(「2024年7月和解」)。保密和解協議的條款包括:
在2024年8月19日,公司宣佈與一家藥品製造商達成$
2024年7月和2024年8月和解產生的營業收入已計入截至2024年9月30日的三個月和九個月的綜合經營報表中的索賠回收收入。

約克維爾收購協議和約克維爾備用股權購買協議
開啓
2023年11月14日,公司與約克維爾簽訂了備用股權購買協議(經修訂後的 「約克維爾SEPA」),該協議全面修訂並重申了上述約克維爾收購協議。根據約克維爾SEPA, 公司有權向約克維爾出售不超過 $
可轉換票據
關於約克維爾SEPA,在遵守其中規定的條件的前提下,約克維爾同意以可轉換本票(「可轉換票據」)的形式向公司預付本金總額爲美元
任何可轉換票據的未清餘額應計利息,年利率等於
普通股的銷售
根據約克維爾SEPA中規定的條款和條件,在約克維爾SEPA終止之前,公司有權不時自行決定指示約克維爾通過向約克維爾發出書面通知(「預先通知」)來購買指定數量的普通股(「預先通知」)。雖然任何預付款沒有強制性的最低金額,但不得超過等於的金額
根據公司預付款購買的普通股將以等於 (i) 的價格購買
在截至2024年9月30日的三個月和九個月中,公司出售了
公司有權向約克維爾出售不超過 $

通用 股票,以及Yorkville SEPA下的觸發事件和違約事件。如下所述,目前Yorkville SEPA的收益正用於償還第三修訂重述的野村票據和Yorkville可轉換票據。
SEPA的收益用途 - 野村票據,第三版Virage MTA修正案
根據第二修訂重述的野村票據的要求(在註釋3中定義, 業務合併),
此外,在違約事件發生及持續期間,可轉換債券應立即到期並應支付, 公司應向Yorkville支付到期的本金和利息。違約事件包括但不限於: (i) A類普通股在任何主要市場上連續十(10)個交易日內停止報價或上市(公司目前在納斯達克交易所報價並上市),以及(ii) 未能及時向SEC提交任何週期性報告,超過SEC規定的截止日期,包括根據證券交易法第120億.25條的延期。無論如何,如果此類轉換以及Yorkville及其附屬公司擁有的所有其他普通股的轉換總數超過
約克維爾可以自行決定,並且在可轉換票據下仍有餘額的情況下,可以根據約克維爾SEPA發出通知,要求按轉換價格向約克維爾發行和出售普通股,以抵消可轉換票據(「約克維爾預付款」)。約克維爾可以自行選擇任何約克維爾預付款的金額,但發行的股份數量不得導致約克維爾超過
除約克維爾預付款外,公司將控制出售普通股給約克維爾的時間和數量。實際向約克維爾出售的普通股作爲約克維爾SEPA下的預付款將取決於公司不時確定的各種因素,這可能包括市場條件、公司普通股的交易價格以及公司對我們業務和運營適當的融資來源的判斷。
對SEPA和可轉換票據的修訂 – 約克維爾信函協議
2024年4月8日,公司與約克維爾達成了對約克維爾SEPA和可轉換票據的修訂協議(「約克維爾信函協議」), 其中:(i)地板價格觸發條件(如下定義)從$

公司A類普通股的每日成交量加權平均價連續十個交易日低於底價,導致可轉換票據中定義的底價觸發,根據2024年11月7日的一封函件約定,Yorkville同意首筆月付款將於最早於2024年12月18日起,按可轉換票據中的定義,由公司支付。
Yorkville SEPA終止
Yorkville SEPA將在以下情況中最早自動終止:(i)Yorkville SEPA簽署日期起約定日後36個月的下一個月的第一天,或(ii) Yorkville根據Yorkville SEPA支付的普通股股票等值於$的日期。
Yorkville SEPA包含各方的通常陳述、擔保、條件和賠償義務。此類協議中包含的陳述、擔保和承諾僅用於該類協議的目的,並截至特定日期,僅用於該類協議當事方的利益,並可能受合同當事方達成的限制約定。
公司根據Yorkville SEPA獲得的淨收益將取決於公司將其A類普通股出售給Yorkville的頻率和價格。公司預計從向Yorkville的此類銷售中獲得的任何收益將用於營運資金和一般公司用途。
Yorkville SEPA – 內嵌衍生工具
Yorkville SEPA的某些特性已被確認並分類爲內嵌衍生工具,根據ASC 815分類爲負債,並根據ASC 470《債務》進行估值。這些被分類爲內嵌衍生工具的特性包括付款和贖回溢價,在違約事件中利率的增加以及由觸發事件導致的提前支付。根據ASC 815,在可轉換工具中所要求進行分立的內嵌換股選項的情況下,可轉換工具中還有其他需要分離的內嵌衍生工具時,被分離的衍生工具被視爲單一的、結合的衍生工具。合併內嵌衍生工具的公允價值爲 $
流動性–持續經營分析
作爲一家初創增長型公司,自成立以來,公司已經遭受了大額淨損失。截至2024年9月30日,公司的無限制現金總額爲 $
公司預期的流動性來源將包括《基本報表》中披露的營運資金信貸設施和Yorkville SEPA。 索賠融資義務和應付票據, 在本季度報告的財務報表註釋中,公司已採取多項措施解決流動性問題,包括下文列舉的措施。然而,正如後文所討論的,公司已經得出結論,管理層的計劃不足以消除重大疑慮:

(Unaudited)
公司已得出結論,儘管上述融資安排存在,但對其作爲持續經營能力的能力仍存在重大疑慮。除非我們通過發行債務或股本證券成功籌集額外資金,否則我們認爲在未來十二個月內無法繼續作爲持續經營能力。假如公司從其獨立註冊公共會計公司收到強調事項段的審計報告,涉及公司審計的年度基本報表,那麼此事件將導致上述債務協議的違約事件,導致債務立即到期;然而,公司已從(i)Virage和VRm及(ii)HPH和Hazel處獲得豁免,以防若此事件發生,截止於2024年12月31日的年度。

公司通過多數表決權或其他方式合併其控制的所有實體,隨附的財務報表包括公司全資子公司和公司擁有控股權的實體的賬目。公司還將其控制的所有實體合併爲可變利益實體(「VIE」)的主要受益人。在VIE模型下,管理層首先評估公司是否在實體中擁有可變權益,其中包括股權。如果公司在一個實體中擁有可變權益,管理層將進一步評估該實體是否爲虛擬實體,如果是,則評估該公司是否是VIE模式下的主要受益人。通常,組織結構類似於有限合夥企業、普通合夥人(或管理成員)做出影響實體經濟業績的最相關決策的實體被視爲需要整合的VIE,除非有限合夥人擁有實質性的啓動權或參與權。不符合VIE資格的實體將根據投票權益模型進行合併評估。
在VIE模式下,如果實體持有控股權益,則該實體被視爲VIE的主要受益人。控股性金融權益的定義是:(a) 指導虛擬實體開展對實體經濟業績影響最嚴重的活動的權力,以及 (b) 吸收實體損失的義務或從該實體獲得可能對該實體具有重大意義的利益的權利。管理層確定公司在參與VIE時是否是VIE的主要受益人,並在每個報告日重新考慮該結論。該分析包括評估公司的控制權以及公司在VIE中持有的經濟利益,包括通過關聯方間接持有的經濟利益。由於業務合併,公司在VIE模式下整合了MSP Recovery。
估計和假設
根據公認會計原則編制簡明合併財務報表要求管理層做出估算和假設,以影響報告的資產、負債金額、簡明合併財務報表之日或有資產和負債的披露以及報告期內報告的收入和支出金額。實際業績可能與公司的估計有所不同。根據情況、事實和經驗的變化,定期對估算值進行審查。估計值的變化記錄在已知的時期內。這些合併財務報表中反映的重要估計和假設包括但不限於索賠追回收入和索賠追回服務收入確認、長期資產的可收回性以及索賠追回成本(包含在收入成本中)。
信用風險集中和資產負債表外風險
現金和關聯應收賬款是可能受到信用風險集中的金融工具。參見注釋 15 關聯方交易,for 披露關聯應收賬款。公司的現金存入大型金融機構的帳戶,金額可能超過聯邦保險限額。該公司認爲,由於持有現金的存款機構的財務實力,它不會面臨重大的信用風險。該公司沒有其他具有表外虧損風險的金融工具。
非控股權益
作爲業務合併的一部分,如附註3所述, 業務組合,該公司成爲MSP Recovery的管理成員,MSP Recovery是在公司控制MSP Recovery的運營決策時進行合併的。非控股權益與Up-C單位有關,這些單位可由Up-C單位的持有人自行決定轉換爲公司的A類普通股,但須經董事會批准。Up-C 單位持有者保留了大約
由於V類普通股的持有人將其股票轉換爲A類普通股,公司在MSP Recovery中所有權權益的變動記作股權交易。公司的每次A類普通股的發行都需要向公司發行相應的MSP回收單位 公司。此次發行將導致所有權變更,並將減少非控股權益的餘額並增加額外實收資本的餘額。

最近的會計聲明
已發佈但尚未採納的新會計準則
自2023年12月起,財務會計準則委員會(「FASB」)發佈了會計準則更新(「ASU」)2023-09,擴大了所得稅披露範圍,包括要求增加與速率調和和支付的所得稅相關信息有關的披露。ASU 2023- 09的修訂應當適用於公共商業實體的年度期間,即2024年12月15日後開始的財政年度以及非公共實體的年度期間,即2025年12月15日後開始的財務年度,早期採用是允許的。該公司目前正在評估採用ASU 2023-09對其披露的影響。 所得稅(主題740):改進所得稅披露。該標準要求上市的業務實體在每年披露稅率調節表的特定類別,併爲滿足數量門限的調節項目提供其他信息(如果這些調節項目的影響相當於或大於將稅前收入(或損失)與適用的法定所得稅率相乘所得金額的5%)。它還要求所有實體每年披露按聯邦、州和外國稅種分解的所支付的所得稅(扣除退款),以及按所支付的所得稅(扣除退款)在個別司法管轄區分解的金額,當所支付的所得稅(扣除退款)相當於或大於所支付的總所得稅(扣除退款)的5%時。最後,該標準取消了要求所有實體披露未識別稅務負債餘額在未來12個月內合理可能變動範圍的性質和估計,或聲明無法估算範圍的要求。該標準對公司自2026年1月1日開始的年度適用。可以提前採納該標準。該標準應以前瞻性基礎應用。允許追溯適用。公司目前正在評估該標準可能對其財務報表產生的影響。除其他要求外,此更新增加了有關所得稅的具體披露要求,包括:(1) 披露匯率調解中的具體類別,以及 (2) 提供符合定量門檻的調解項目的額外信息。該指南自2024年12月15日起適用於截至此日期之後開始的財政年度,包括這些財政年度內的中期時段。允許提前採納。公司目前正在評估實施此標準將對公司的合併財務報表和披露產生的影響。
2023年11月,FASB發佈了ASU 2023-07,該更新通過增強重要板塊支出的披露,改進了可報告板塊的披露要求。這個更新中的修正應在合併財務報表中呈現的所有之前期間中進行追溯,適用於2023年12月31日後開始的財政年度和2024年12月31日後的財政年度內的中期期間。早期實施是允許的。公司目前正在評估該指引對其簡明合併財務報表的潛在影響。 一段報告部份改進(Topic 280):改善可報告部份披露。 此ASU自2023年12月15日後開始的財政年度起生效,並適用於2024年12月15日後開始的財政年度內的中期時段,允許提前採納。公司經營一個報告部門;但目前正評估實施此標準將對公司的合併財務報表和披露產生的影響。
2024年3月,SEC根據SEC發佈編號33-11275採納了最終規則。 投資者氣候相關披露的增強和標準化,要求登記者在註冊聲明和年度報告中披露與氣候相關的信息。這些新規定將於2025財政年度開始的年度報告期間生效。然而,在2024年4月,SEC行使其自由裁量權暫停這些規定,等待與這些規定相關的特定聯合訴狀在第八巡回法庭完成司法審查。公司正在評估此規定對其合併基本報表和披露的影響。
注3. 業務合併
2022年5月23日(「交割日期」),MSP Recovery, Inc. 以LifeWallet的名義,一家特拉華州公司(以前稱爲Lionheart Acquisition Corporation II(「LCAP」))根據2021年7月11日簽署的特定會員權益購買協議(「MIPA」)完成了業務合併,該協議經過修訂,參與方包括公司、Lionheart II Holdings, LLC(公司全資子公司)、MSP Recovery, LLC,以及合併和整合的子公司(「Legacy MSP」)、Legacy MSP的成員(「成員」)和John H. Ruiz,以其作爲成員代表的身份(「成員代表」)。根據MIPA,成員將其在Legacy MSP的所有成員權益出售並轉讓給公司,作爲交換,得到公司發行的無經濟權投票的V類普通股(面值$)、
由於業務合併(「交割」)的完成,公司在「Up-C」結構中組織,Legacy MSP及其子公司的所有業務均直接或間接由公司持有,公司是管理成員,合併了Legacy MSP,並且公司擁有所有投票的經濟A類單位,而成員及其指定人根據公司首次修訂和重述的有限責任公司協議的條款擁有所有非投票的經濟b類單位。根據公司選擇,每個Up-C單位可以交換爲(a)現金或(b)一股A類普通股,受有限責任公司協議中規定的條款的限制。交割時支付給成員(或其指定人的)總對價包括:(i)
在交易完成時,公司將其名稱從「獅心收購公司II」更改爲「MSP恢復公司」。業務合併根據GAAP會計處理爲反向資本化。根據這種會計方法,公司在財務報表報告中被視爲被收購方。反向資本化被視爲傳統MSP爲LCAP的淨資產發行股票,並伴隨資本重組。LCAP的淨資產按歷史成本列示,沒有記錄商譽或其他無形資產。
公司在業務合併交易中獲得的淨收益約爲$

在截至2024年9月30日的九個月期間,公司因其在業務合併中獲得的可分配現有稅基相關的TRA負債將產生TRA負債 $
公司已評估淨遞延稅資產的可實現性,並在該分析中考慮了相關的正面和負面證據,以判斷某部分或所有遞延稅資產更有可能被實現。公司已在2024年9月30日對遞延稅資產記錄了全面的估值準備,直到有足夠證據支持撤銷這些準備的全部或部分爲止。由於與TRA相關的稅收利益尚未確認,基於未來應稅收入的估計,公司已得出結論,不太可能確認任何應收稅款協議的負債。如果在未來某一時期釋放了針對遞延稅資產的估值準備,那麼在那時TRA負債可能被認爲是概率較大的,並記錄在收益中。

非控制利益
由於業務組合,公司反映出由於Up-C結構而產生的非控股權益。公司持有Opco的所有投票A類單位,而成員(或其指定人)持有Opco的所有非投票經濟B類單位(這些B類單位代表了公司的非控股權益)。由成員(或其指定人)持有的公司中的V類普通股份比例將等同於公司持有的B類單位數量,並因此反映出對公司的非控股權益,這等同於V類普通股份比例。有關公司所有權利益的更多信息,請參閱備註12。 非控制權益有關公司所有權利益的更多信息,請參閱備註12。

As the Company incurred debt related to the VRM Full Return as included in the guaranty obligation within the condensed consolidated balance sheet, this value was included in the purchase price and is included in intangible assets, net, in the condensed consolidated balance sheet for the full value of the VRM Full Return at the acquisition date. Any subsequent interest accrual is reflected within interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
On April 12, 2023, the Company and Messrs. Quesada and Ruiz entered into an amendment (the “Virage MTA Amendment”) to the agreement with Virage and the related Guaranty pursuant to which the payment date for the VRM Full Return was extended from May 23, 2023 until September 30, 2024, subject to acceleration upon certain triggering events. On November 14, 2023, the maturity date was extended to December 31, 2024. In addition, the Virage MTA Amendment changed the payment methods to Virage to exclusively be, in the following order of priority: (a) the Proceeds and any other sources of revenue or liquidity of the Company (and its subsidiaries) that are not encumbered by a lien of a party other than Virage and to the extent such revenues and liquidity exceed the amount of net of revenues necessary to establish and maintain an operating reserve of $

On April 1, 2024, the Company entered into the Third Virage MTA Amendment which: (i) extended the VRM Full Return payment due date to September 30, 2025, subject to acceleration upon certain triggering events, including the receipt of a going concern opinion by the Company’s independent auditor; (ii)

MSP Recovery向VRm MSP貢獻的某些系列(持有某些CCRA)的過程,被視爲共同控制交易,因爲公司在此類轉讓前後會合並系列。此外,公司分析了被接納爲VRm MSP成員的情況,並決定根據ASC 323適用權益法投資指導原則。公司最初使用成本累積模型對其在VRm MSP的權益法投資進行了計量和記錄;然而,在合併時,VRm MSP的投資被消除,CCRA無形資產繼續保留在資產負債表的「無形資產」項目下。VRm MSP的投資將反映爲零餘額。此外,由於VRm MSP的主要資產是CCRA,VRm MSP創造任何收益的能力(未通過MSP Recovery合併系列報告的收益)微乎其微;因此,MSP Recovery不期望從VRm MSP獲得任何顯著收益。

In 2023, in connection with an amendment to the VRM MSP structure, the Company became a direct investor in VRM MSP, which controls MSP Recovery Claims, Series LLC, and recognizes this investment as an equity method investment. However, the Company previously consolidated and continues to consolidate the underlying Series of MSP Recovery Claims, Series LLC, which hold investments in CCRAs that the Company controls as primary beneficiary under the VIE model. As such, other than the Series, which were already consolidated, the investment in VRM MSP includes only administrative activities that are not otherwise consolidated, and any costs are allocable to the other investors. As a result, the Company has no significant equity earnings or exposure to losses or obligations to fund this investment.

The Company monitors intangible assets for potential impairment indicators, including, but not limited to, assumptions regarding the amount and timing of future collections derived from its CCRAs. The Company continues to pursue recoveries from various parties under rights held through its CCRAs; however, extended delays may result in future impairment of the Company’s intangible assets.
During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company updated the recoverability analysis on the definite-lived CCRA intangible assets performed as of December 31, 2023. The Company did not identify any new impairment indicators outside of the ones already disclosed in its evaluation of its definite-lived intangible assets in the 2023 Form 10-K. There are inherent risks in our business which could impact the recoverability analysis. As a result, factors may change in the future that could negatively impact our recoverability of the CCRAs, and may result in an impairment charge. Based on the analysis, the carrying value of the Company’s CCRA intangible assets was deemed to be recoverable as of September 30, 2024.

Note 9. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Investments in Consolidated Variable Interest Entities
The Company evaluates its ownership, contractual, and other interests in entities to determine if they are VIEs, if the Company has a variable interest in those entities, and the nature and extent of those interests. These evaluations are highly complex and involve management judgment and the use of estimates and assumptions based on available historical information, among other factors. Based on its evaluations, if the Company determines it is the primary beneficiary of such VIEs, it consolidates such entities into its financial statements. VIEs information below is presented on an aggregate basis based on similar risk and reward characteristics and the Company’s involvement with the VIEs.
The Company includes a number of entities that are determined to be VIEs and for which the common control group can direct the use of the entities’ assets and resources for other purposes. The Company only consolidates those VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary.
The assets of the consolidated VIEs may only be used to settle obligations of these VIEs and to settle any investors’ ownership liquidation requests. There is no recourse to the Company for the consolidated VIEs’ liabilities. The assets of the consolidated VIEs are not available to the Company’s creditors.
Total assets and liabilities included in its condensed consolidated balance sheets for these VIEs were $
Investments in Unconsolidated Variable Interest Entities
The Company has equity investments in VIEs, but does not consolidate them because it has no power to direct the activities that most significantly impact their economic performance and thus is not considered the primary beneficiary of the entities. Those VIEs are reflected as equity method investments.
Total assets and liabilities for these VIEs were $
Generally, the Company’s exposure is limited to its investment in those VIEs (see Note 5, Investment in Equity Method Investees). For MAO-MSO Recovery II, LLC and Series PMPI, the Company may be exposed to providing additional recovery services at its own cost if recovery proceeds allocated to it are insufficient to recover the costs of those services. The Company does not have any other exposure or any obligation to provide additional funding to the VIEs that it has equity investments in.
VRM MSP
The Company became a member of VRM MSP through the contribution of certain Series (holding certain CCRAs) by MSP Recovery into VRM MSP. The Company determined, based on analysis of the rights to cash flows from the Series and the related guaranty obligation, that the Company is the primary beneficiary of the Series entities, and therefore should consolidate as of the transaction date. The contribution is considered a common control transaction, as the Company controls and consolidates the Series before and after such contribution. The Company consolidates the Series held within VRM MSP, however does not consolidate VRM MSP itself.
Refer to Note 5, Investment in Equity Method Investees, for additional information on this VRM MSP transaction.

As discussed in Note 4, Asset Acquisitions, amounts borrowed and obligations under the Purchase Money Loan and the Working Capital Credit Facility are secured by a pledge of proceeds from certain Claims in the Company’s Claims portfolio, with the lien securing the Purchase Money Loan being subordinated and junior to the lien securing the Working Capital Credit Facility. Pursuant to the Purchase Money Loan and the Working Capital Credit Facility, the Company entered into a collateral administrative agreement between the Company and HPH, which sets forth certain arrangements between the Company and HPH in relation to the management of the litigation of certain Claims owned by the Company, the proceeds of which are due to the Company, and were pledged to Hazel and HPH to secure the Purchase Money Loan and the Working Capital Credit Facility, respectively.

Note 11. WARRANT LIABILITY
When the Company issues warrants, it evaluates the proper balance sheet classification of the warrant to determine whether it should be classified as equity or as a derivative liability on the consolidated balance sheets. In accordance with ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in the Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASC 815-40”), the Company classifies a warrant as equity so long as it is “indexed to the Company’s equity” and several specific conditions for equity classification are met. A warrant is not considered indexed to the Company’s equity, in general, when it contains certain types of exercise contingencies or adjustments to the exercise price. If a warrant is not indexed to the Company’s own common stock or it has net cash settlement that results in the warrants to be accounted for under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”, or ASC 815-40, it is classified as a derivative liability which is carried on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value with any changes in its fair value recognized currently in the statement of operations.
On May 17, 2022, the Company and CF Principal Investments LLC (“CF”) entered into an agreement for an OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Transaction (the “Prepaid Forward”).

The warrant liability includes the mark-to-market fair value of the warrants discussed above. The fair value of the warrant liability is derived considering the potential shares issuable for each warrant and using the price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock as of the most recent balance sheet date, which is a quoted price in active markets.

The non-controlling interest holders have the right to exchange Up-C Units, at the Company’s option, for (i) cash or (ii) one share of Class A Common Stock, subject to the provisions set forth in the LLC Agreement. As such, future exchanges of Up-C Units by non-controlling interest holders will result in a change in ownership and reduce or increase the amount recorded as non-controlling interest and increase or decrease additional paid-in-capital or retained earnings when the Company has positive or negative net assets, respectively. As of September 30, 2024,
In addition to the non-controlling interest related to Up-C Units, the Company also has non-controlling interests related to the Series as noted in Note 9, Variable Interest Entities, and MAO-MSO Recovery LLC Series FHCP (“FHCP”), which is a non-wholly owned subsidiary of MSP Recovery, LLC. In accordance with FHCP’s operating agreement, the non-controlling member is entitled to a preferred return of
Note 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is subject to certain legal proceedings, claims, investigations, and administrative proceedings in the ordinary course of its business. The Company records a provision for a liability when it is both probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. These provisions, if any, are reviewed and adjusted to reflect the impacts of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case. Depending on the nature and timing of any such proceedings that may arise, an unfavorable resolution of a matter could materially affect the Company’s future results of operations, cash flows, or financial position in a particular period.

MSP RECOVERY, INC. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
The Company pursues claims recoveries through settlement, arbitration, and legal proceedings. The accounting policy for these activities is discussed under Claims recovery income in Note 2, Basis of Presentation And Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our 2023 Form 10-K.
A significant majority of the Company’s expected recoveries arise from Claims brought pursuant to the private cause of action under the Medicare Secondary Payer Act (“MSP Act”). This law allows the Company to pursue recoveries against primary payers for reimbursement of medical expenses that the Company’s Assignors paid for when primary payers (i.e., liability insurers) were responsible for payment. On May 16, 2023, the Repair Abuses of MSP Payments Act (the “RAMP Act”) was introduced in the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives, respectively, seeking to amend the private cause of action under the Medicare Secondary Payer Act, by striking “primary plan” and inserting “group health plan” into the existing text. As there is no indication that the RAMP Act is intended to be enacted retroactively, it should not have any effect on the recoverability of historical claims. To the extent that the Company has recovery rights in claims that have not yet been sought, or to the extent that the Company is assigned additional claims that may otherwise have been entitled to recoveries under the MSP Act, the passing of the RAMP Act could impact the Company’s ability to pursue recoveries on those prospective claims.
Investigations
As previously disclosed, on August 11, 2022, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) initiated an investigation of the Company, and requested documents relating to, among other matters, the Business Combination transaction with Lionheart Acquisition Corporation II consummated on May 23, 2022, certain historical and projected financial results, investor agreements, and data analytic platforms and Algorithms. The Company received a subpoena dated March 1, 2023 from the SEC regarding the aforementioned subject matter, and subsequently received a subpoena on May 10, 2023, in connection with the investigation relating to, among other matters, the Company’s projections and the accounting and valuation of certain assets that were the basis for the Company’s determination that its quarterly financial statements for the periods ended June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2022 require restatements and should no longer be relied upon, as disclosed in the Company’s Form 8-K on April 14, 2023. On August 16, 2023, the Company received an additional subpoena from the SEC regarding certain funding sources of the Company prior to the Business Combination, various statements and disclosures by the Company in connection with, and following, the Business Combination, certain historical and projected financial results, and data analytic platforms and Algorithms used to identify potential recoveries. The Company intends to fully cooperate with the SEC in responding to the subpoenas.
In addition, on March 10, 2023, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office (“USAO”) in connection with a grand jury investigation in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida requesting certain information concerning the Company, which subpoena requests documents relating to, among other matters, the Company’s proprietary Algorithms and other software used to identify potentially recoverable claims, the drop in the price of the Company’s common stock following the Business Combination, and certain marketing materials and investment agreements presented to potential investors. On July 18, 2024, the Company received an additional subpoena from the USAO, requesting documents related to a Company press release. To the best of the Company’s knowledge, the Department of Justice has not issued any target letters to anyone associated with the Company as a result of this investigation. (The United States Attorney’s Manual states that a “target” is a person as to whom the prosecutor or the grand jury has substantial evidence linking him or her to the commission of a crime and who, in the judgment of the prosecutor, is a putative defendant.)
The Company has cooperated, and will continue to cooperate, fully with these inquiries. On April 16, 2023, a special committee of the Board of Directors was formed, which along with external advisors retained thereby, reviewed matters related to the preparation and filing of the 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the subject matter of information requests related to the foregoing subpoenas received prior to June 2023. Based on that review, and the nature of the documents requested in the subsequent subpoena, the Company believes that the investigations will be resolved without any material developments; however, there can be no assurance as to the outcome or future direction thereof.
Cano Health, LLC
On August 10, 2023, MSP Recovery sued Cano Health, LLC (“Cano”) in the Circuit Court of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida for declaratory relief and anticipatory breach of the CCRA, Purchase Agreement, and a Service Agreement (collectively, the “Cano Agreements”) between the parties. On the same day, Cano sued the Company in the same court, alleging fraud in the inducement, breach of contract, tortious interference, and unjust enrichment relating to the Cano Agreements. The Company has outstanding a $

(“Simply”) and the Company and affiliated entities seeking a declaratory judgment to determine whether the Cano Purchase Agreement should be rescinded, and whether Cano or the Company have standing to recover on claims assigned to the Company against Simply under the Cano Purchase Agreement. Cano also seeks damages from Simply relating to the claims assigned to the Company under the Cano Purchase Agreement. The Company intends to vigorously assert its position in all Cano related litigation.
Note 14. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company has no assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Note 16. NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic earnings per share of Class A Common Stock is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of Class A Common Stock is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders adjusted for the assumed exchange of all potentially dilutive securities, by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive elements. Diluted loss per share for all periods presented is the same as basic loss per share as the inclusion of the potentially issuable shares would be anti-dilutive.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Unless the context requires otherwise or unless otherwise noted, all references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) to “LifeWallet,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” are to MSP Recovery, Inc., d/b/a LifeWallet, a Delaware corporation. The following discussion and analysis provides information that the Company’s management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read together with our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2023 and our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. This discussion may contain forward-looking statements based upon the Company’s current expectations, estimates, and projections that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements due to, among other considerations, the matters discussed under “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain of the statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking and constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements may generally be identified by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “predict,” “may,” “should,” and “will” or, in each case, their negative, or other variations or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts, including, for example, guidance for portfolio recoverability. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. As a result, these statements are not guarantees of future performance or results and actual events may differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Although we believe that our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of our knowledge of our industry, business, and operations, we cannot guarantee that actual results will not differ materially from our expectations. In evaluating such forward-looking statements, you should specifically consider various factors, including the risks outlined under “Risk Factors.” Any forward-looking statement made by the Company herein speaks only as of the date made. The discussion of risks and uncertainties set forth in this Form 10-Q is not necessarily a complete or exhaustive list of all risks facing the Company at any particular point in time. New risks and uncertainties come up from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict or identify all such events or to assess either the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any individual risk factor, combination of factors, or new or altered factors, may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. The Company has no obligation, and does not intend, to update any forward-looking statements after the date hereof for any reason, even if new information becomes available in the future, except as required by federal securities laws. Factors that could cause these differences include, but are not limited to, the Company’s ability to capitalize on its assignment agreements and recover monies that were paid by the Assignors; the inherent uncertainty surrounding settlement negotiations and/or litigation, including with respect to both the amount and timing of any such results; the validity of the assignments of Claims to the Company; the ability to successfully expand the scope of our Claims or obtain new data and Claims from the Company’s existing Assignor base or otherwise; the Company’s ability to innovate and develop new solutions, and whether those solutions will be adopted by the Company’s existing and potential Assignors; negative publicity concerning healthcare data analytics and payment accuracy; compliance with the listing standards of The Nasdaq Capital Market; and those other factors listed under “Risk Factors” below and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and other reports filed by the Company with the SEC.
Our Business
We are a leading healthcare recovery and data analytics company. We focus on the Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurance spaces. We are disrupting the antiquated healthcare reimbursement system, using data and analytics to identify and recover improper payments made by Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial health insurers.
Medicare and Medicaid are payers of last resort. Too often, they end up being the first and only payers, because the responsible payer is not identified or billed. As Medicare and Medicaid pay a far lower rate than what other insurers are often billed, this costs the healthcare system (and the supporting taxpayers) tens of billions of dollars a year in improper billing and lost recoveries. By discovering, quantifying, and settling the billed-to-paid gap on a large-scale basis, the Company is positioned to generate meaningful annual recovery revenue at high profit margins.
Our access to large volumes of data, sophisticated data analytics, and a leading technology platform provide a unique opportunity to discover and recover on Claims. We have developed Algorithms to identify waste, fraud, and abuse in the Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial health insurance segments. Our team of experienced data scientists and medical professionals analyze historical medical Claims data to identify recoverable opportunities. Once potential recoveries are reviewed by our team, they are aggregated and pursued. Through statutory law and case law, we believe we have an established basis for future recoveries.
We differ from our competitors as we receive our recovery rights through irrevocable assignments of Claims. Rather than provide services under a third-party vendor services contract, we receive the rights to certain Recovery Proceeds from our Assignors. As assignees, we have control over the direction of the litigation and take on a risk that our competitors do not. We, or our affiliated entities, are the plaintiff in any action filed and have control over the direction of the lawsuit. By receiving Claims through assignment, we can pursue additional recoveries under numerous legal theories that our competitors cannot. Although we typically own assigned Claims,
34
for a significant portion of assigned Claims, our ability to pursue recoveries depends on our ongoing access to data through data access rights granted to us. In these cases, termination of such data access would substantially impair our ability to generate recoveries on those Claims.
Our current Claims portfolio has scaled significantly. We are entitled to a portion of any recovery rights associated with approximately $1,591 billion in Billed Amount (and approximately $380 billion in Paid Amount), which contains approximately $87.8 billion in Paid Value of Potentially Recoverable Claims, as of September 30, 2024. We believe it would take any competitor significant time to amass the portfolio of Claims rights currently owned by us due to, among things, the volume of our Claims data retained and strength of our data analytics, which we believe are key to attracting new clients that are willing to assign Claims to us.
Healthcare Industry
Our business is directly related to the healthcare industry and is affected by healthcare spending and complexity in the healthcare industry. We estimate that our total potentially serviceable market is over $150 billion annually. Our primary focus is on the Medicare and Medicaid market segments. Medicare is the second largest government program, with annual expenditures during 2022 of approximately $944 billion for approximately 65.7 million enrollees. Medicaid has a combined estimated annual expenditure during 2022 of approximately $805 billion for approximately 88.4 million enrollees. Of the billions spent yearly by Medicare on medical expenses for its beneficiaries, we estimate that at least 10% of this was improperly paid by private Medicare plans.
Our potentially serviceable market is impacted by the expansion or contraction of healthcare coverage and spending, which directly affects the number of Claims available. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) has projected that health spending will continue to grow at an average rate of 5.4% a year between 2022 and 2031. We also believe reimbursement models may become more complex as healthcare payers accommodate new markets and lines of business and as advancements in medical care increase the number of testing and treatment options available. As reimbursement models grow more complex and healthcare coverage increases, the complexity and number of Claims may also increase, which could impact the demand for our solutions. Such changes could have a further impact on our results of operations.
As of September 30, 2024, approximately 95.8% of our expected recoveries arise from Claims being brought under the Medicare Secondary Payer Act. While we believe the MSP Act has bipartisan support, changes to the laws on which we base our recoveries, particularly the MSP Act, can adversely affect our business. Our ability to generate future revenue is therefore significantly dependent on factors outside our control.
Our Business Model
Recovery Model
In our current business model, we receive irrevocable assignments of health Claim recovery rights through CCRAs from a variety of sources including, but not limited to, MAOs, MSOs, HMOs, hospitals, and other at-risk entities. Prior to executing a CCRA, we utilize our proprietary internal data analytics platform to review the set of Claims and identify Claims with possible recovery paths.
Once Claims have been assigned, our data analysts use our proprietary Algorithms to identify potential recoveries. Results are then quality checked by our internal medical team. We contract with the Law Firm and various other law firms across the country to pursue recoveries through the legal system. Where appropriate, Law Firm reaches out to the liable parties to demand payment of amounts that are owed. Prior to” litigation, there may be an incentive for the primary insurer to settle. If legal action is required to pursue recovery from primary insurers, we seek “double damages” under the MSP Act.
We engage with each Assignor independently. We are typically entitled to 100% of recoveries pursuant to our CCRA. From those recoveries, we are typically contractually obligated to pay 50% of Net Proceeds to the Assignor. In certain cases, we have purchased the Assignor’s rights to Recovery Proceeds in advance of any collection; therefore, entitling the Company to retain 100% of the Net Proceeds. The “Net Proceeds” of any assigned Claim is defined as the gross amount recovered on an assigned Claim, minus any costs directly traceable to such assigned Claim(s) for which recovery was made. In some instances, we may purchase outright an Assignor’s recovery rights; in such instances, we are entitled to the entire recovery. In some cases, we have entered into arrangements to transfer CCRAs or rights to proceeds from CCRAs to other parties. Such sales include variable consideration in the form of payments that will be made only upon achievement of certain recoveries or based on a percentage of actual recoveries. We have not yet generated substantial revenue from the recovery model.
MSP Recovery Clearinghouse
We developed the MSP Recovery Clearinghouse, formerly known as MSP Lien Resolver, to identify, quantify, and resolve outstanding liens. By law, Medicare and MA Plans are payers of last resort, making no-fault insurers the primary payers, responsible to exhaust their policy limits to pay for accident-related claims before Medicare bears any responsibility. Healthcare providers often submit Claims for the payment of medical services rendered after an accident to the patient’s health insurer, either seeking “conditional payments,” pending reimbursement by a primary payer, or entirely unaware that a primary payer has payment obligations. Medicare is unable to effectively verify if and how much is owed for any particular claimant if they are not aware that there is a Primary Payer involved.
35
Federal law requires primary payers to maintain and report the “key identifiers” for all claimants (such as their name, Social Security number, address, etc.) that are used to determine Medicare status on a regular basis and determine all claimant’s Medicare status before settling any injury claim. These steps are required to ensure that Medicare is alerted to primary payer obligations and to seek reimbursement. Primary payers routinely fail to fulfill these two duties, leaving Medicare in the dark and footing the bill. The result is a loophole for insurers, as Medicare relies on primary payer reporting to identify payment or reimbursement obligations. The Company has proved that in some instances primary payers have as little as a 2% reporting rate, thus failing to comply with the law 98% of the time.
The Company developed MSP Recovery Clearinghouse in an effort to reduce or eliminate this problem. MA Plans have and continue to provide claims data to the Company, including lists of beneficiaries along with diagnosis and treatment codes, and payment data. The Company aggregates this data into the MSP Recovery Clearinghouse, which compares the information with other publicly available sources. Proprietary algorithms then analyze these unique data sets against the list of beneficiaries to discover compensable Claims. The MSP Recovery Clearinghouse’s three-step data comparison & claim identification process reveals the full universe of beneficiaries and both reported and unreported Claims.
The amount owed is calculated and a demand to settle is made. If no agreement can be reached, the litigation moves forward. The MSP Recovery Clearinghouse model may also be used by primary payers to proactively resolve liens and ensure future compliance with federal law.
Chase to Pay
Over time, the Company believes that a large part of the flaws that exist in the marketplace can be significantly improved by the solutions that can be achieved by our “Chase to Pay” model. Chase to Pay is a near real-time analytics driven platform that identifies the proper primary insurer at the point of care or close enough in proximity for payers to determine primary and secondary payers. Chase to Pay is intended to plug into near real-time medical utilization platforms used by providers at the points of care. Rather than allow an MAO to make a wrongful payment whereby the payer needs to chase down the primary payer and collect a reimbursement for the MAO, Chase to Pay is intended to prevent the MAO from making a wrongful payment and ensure that the correct payer pays in the first instance. Furthermore, the primary payer typically will make payments at a higher multiple than the MAO would have paid, and MSP will be entitled to receive its portion of the Recovery Proceeds on the amounts paid by the primary payer. Chase to Pay is powered, in part, by Palantir’s Foundry platform utilizing LifeWallet’s industry knowledge.
As Chase to Pay was designed to work at or around the point of care, it is expected to substantially decrease legal costs of recovery. As a result, when implemented, Chase to Pay is expected to improve the net recovery margin as the recovery multiple grows and variable legal costs to recover decline. As a result of having already received data from insurance carriers we've settled with for historical claims, and based on the agreement with said carriers to receive data daily therefrom for one year from the date of the settlement, the Chase to Pay model can be utilized to the extent that we can match the insurance carrier with Claims data received from our Assignors.
Although we have not yet generated revenue from this model, some customers send data to LifeWallet on a monthly or quarterly basis. The Company is working to increase the number of customers that provide daily data outputs. We are currently in the process of determining the pricing and form of these arrangements. As part of our “Chase to Pay” model, we launched LifeWallet in January 2022, a platform powered by our sophisticated data analytics, designed to locate and organize users’ medical records, facilitating efficient access to enable informed decision-making and improved patient care.
Claims Recovery Services
We may also recognize Claims recovery service revenue from our services to customers to assist those entities with the pursuit of Claims recovery rights. We provide services to other parties to identify recoverable Claims and provide data matching and legal services. Under our Claims recovery services model, we do not own the rights to Claims but provide our services for a fee based on budgeted expenses for the month with an adjustment for the variance between budget and actual expense from the prior month.
We were a party to that certain Recovery Services Agreement (the “MSP RH Series 01 Recovery Services Agreement”), dated as of October 23, 2020, by and between MSP Recovery Holdings Series 01, LLC (“MSP RH Series 01”) and MSP Recovery, pursuant to which MSP Recovery provided services including identifying, processing, prosecuting, and recovering money for certain Claims of MSP RH Series 01. On March 29, 2023, this service fee agreement was terminated in connection with the series of agreements discussed in further detail in the Hazel Transactions section of Note 4, Asset Acquisitions.
36
The fees received pursuant to this agreement are related to expenses incurred and are not tied to the Billed Amount or potential recovery amounts. Although we believe our future business to be highly tied to the recovery model and Chase to Pay, we will continue to enter into these contracts as the market dictates.
Recent Updates
Recent Settlements
On July 16, 2024, the Company reached a comprehensive settlement (the “July 2024 Settlement”) with a group of affiliated property and casualty insurers (“P&C Insurers”). The terms of the confidential settlement agreements include:
On August 19, 2024, the Company announced a $3.1 million cash settlement (the “August 2024 Settlement”) with a pharmaceutical manufacturer in a case where the Company alleged that the manufacturer increased the price of a drug in violation of antitrust laws.
The revenue generated from the July 2024 Settlement and the August 2024 Settlement is included within the Claims recovery income in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Notice of Non-Compliance with Nasdaq Listing Requirements
On June 7, 2024, the Company was notified by Nasdaq Listing Qualifications staff (the “Staff”) that the Company was non-compliant with Nasdaq’s Bid Price Requirement as the closing bid price for the Company’s Class A Common Stock had fallen below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days (April 25, 2024 through June 6, 2024). Pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company is provided with a compliance cure period of 180 calendar days, or until December 4, 2024, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement. On September 25, 2024, stockholders holding at least a majority of our outstanding voting capital stock, including our Class A Common Stock and Class V Common Stock, approved by written consent a resolution authorizing the Board of Directors to amend the Company’s Charter, to effect a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s Common Stock at a reverse stock split ratio ranging from 1:3 to 1:30, and to authorize the Company’s Board of Directors to determine, at its discretion, the timing of the amendment and the specific ratio of the Reverse Stock Split. As announced on November 12, 2024, the Board determined to proceed with the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of 1:25, which it expects to be effectuated by the open of business on November 18, 2024. The Reverse Stock Split would cause the amounts of Class A Common Stock and Class V Common Stock of 30,975,324 and 124,067,498, respectively, as of September 30, 2024, to result in 1,239,013 and 4,962,700 after giving effect to the Reserve Stock Split.
If the Company does not regain compliance during such 180-day compliance period, the Company may be eligible to transfer its listing to the Nasdaq Capital Market, so as to take advantage of the additional 180-day compliance period offered on that market, provided that the Company meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable initial listing standards for Nasdaq, and provides a written notice of its intention to cure this deficiency during the second compliance period. If it appears to the Staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, it will receive written notification that its securities are subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a hearings panel pursuant to the procedures set forth in the applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules.

Key Factors Affecting Our Results
Our Claims Portfolio
We differ from some of our competitors because we obtain our recovery rights through irrevocable assignments. When we are assigned these rights, we take on the risk that such Claims may not be recoverable. We are entitled to pursue a portion of any recovery rights associated with approximately $1,591 billion in Billed Amount (and approximately $380 billion in Paid Amount), which contained approximately $87.8 billion in Paid Value of Potentially Recoverable Claims, as of September 30, 2024. We are typically entitled to 100% of recovery rights pursuant to our CCRAs, but contractually obligated to pay 50% of gross recoveries to the Assignor. In certain cases, we have purchased from our Assignors the rights to 100% of the recovery. By discovering, quantifying, and settling the gap between Billed Amount and Paid Amount on a large scale, we believe we are positioned to generate substantial annual recovery revenue at high profit margins for our assigned Claims. In litigation, our experienced management and legal teams provide us with a competitive advantage. While our model of being assigned the Claim rights allows us the flexibility to direct the litigation and potentially generate higher margins, we have, on an opportunistic basis, paid the Assignor an upfront purchase price for these rights.
To date, we have not generated substantial revenue from our Claims portfolio, and our business model is dependent on achieving revenue from this model in the future. If we are unable to recover the upfront purchase price from the assigned Claims or the investments we have made in pursuing recoveries, it would have an adverse effect on our profitability and business.
Our potential Claims recovery income in a given period will be impacted by the amount of Claims we review and ultimately pursue. The number of Claims that we review is driven by the Claims we receive through assignment. As we are assigned more Claims, we can review the Claims and identify additional recoveries. To expand our Assignor base and obtain more Claims, we plan to implement new strategies to secure new Assignors. These strategies will include a platform to educate potential Assignors about our company, making strategic business partnerships, potential mergers, as well as other marketing strategies. Our Assignors have grown from 32 in 2015, to 105 in 2018, to 123 in 2019, to 134 in 2020 and over 160 Assignors to date. If we are unable to continue to attract new Assignors to our platform, this could adversely affect future profitability.
In addition to obtaining new Claims, our ability to collect on identified Claims at our estimated multiples is key to our future profitability. Pursuant to the MSP Act, we believe we are entitled to pursue reasonable and customary rates. Under existing statutory and case law, the private cause of action under the MSP Act permits the pursuit of double damages when a primary plan fails to provide for primary payment or appropriate reimbursement. In addition to double damages, federal law provides express authority to pursue statutory interest from primary payers on any amounts owed.
As a result, we may pursue double damages and statutory interest in our MSP Act-related recoveries. We seek to recover these amounts under either the recovery model or the Chase to Pay model. Federal law also expressly provides MAOs with the right to charge providers for the Billed Amount when accident-related liability exists. Per the terms of various legal services agreements that MSP Recovery has with the Law Firm, for legal services provided, the Law Firm would receive a percentage of the total Claim recovery which would include double damages and additional penalties. Our ability to pursue double damages may be impacted by the RAMP Act as disclosed in Note 13, Commitments and Contingencies.
Our Claims recovery revenue is typically recognized upon reaching a binding settlement or arbitration with a counterparty or when the legal proceedings, including any appellate process, are resolved. A decrease in the willingness of courts to grant these judgments, a change in the requirements for filing these cases or obtaining these judgments, or a decrease in our ability to collect on these judgments could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results. Of the Claims identified as potentially recoverable, relating to our accident-related cases as of September 30, 2024, approximately 86.8% of claims are already in the recovery process, which are claims where either the recovery process has been initiated, data has been collected and matched, or resolution discussions are in process.
Key Performance Indicators
To evaluate our business, key trends, risks and opportunities, prepare projections, make strategic decisions, and measure our performance, we track several key performance indicators (“KPIs”). As our company has yet to achieve significant revenues and the drivers of expected revenues require significant lead time before revenue can be generated, management utilizes KPIs to assist in tracking progress, and believes such KPIs are useful in evaluating the performance of our business, in addition to our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The KPIs are Total Paid Amount, Paid Value of Potentially Recoverable Claims, Billed Value of Potentially Recoverable Claims, Recovery Multiple, and Penetration Status of Portfolio.
Total Paid Amount: The term Paid Amount is defined in the Definitions section above. As we continue to expand, we anticipate our revenue growth will be greatly dependent on our ability to increase the total Paid Amount and, correspondingly, the Paid Value of Potentially Recoverable Claims, in our portfolio. The Company’s Paid Amount may increase or decrease over time based on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, receiving new data from existing or new Assignors, and changes to our data processing procedures. Management believes this metric is a useful measure to investors and is useful in managing or monitoring company performance because we view an increase in Paid Amount as a positive indicator as it should provide the Company with the ability to increase the Paid Value of Potentially Recoverable Claims. Conversely, a decrease would produce a diminishing expectation of the Paid Value of Potentially Recoverable Claims.
38
Paid Value of Potentially Recoverable Claims (“PVPRC”): The term PVPRC is defined in the Definitions section above. We analyze our Claims portfolio and identify potentially recoverable Claims using our Algorithms to comb through historical paid Claims data and search for potential recoveries. The Company’s PVPRC may increase or decrease over time based on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, receiving new data from existing or new Assignors, changes to our data processing procedures, changes, developments, improvements or the elimination of Algorithms that identify potentially recoverable Claims, a decision by management not to litigate certain potentially recoverable Claims, or litigation updates affecting the viability of certain potentially recoverable Claims. PVPRC is a measure of the Paid Amount that has been paid to providers in respect of those potentially recoverable Claims. Management believes this measure provides a useful metric for potential recoveries, but it is not a measure of the actual amount that may be recovered with respect to potentially recoverable Claims, which in turn may be higher or lower based on a variety of factors. As non-compliance with Section 111 reporting requirements is commonplace, responsible reporting entities (RRE) routinely fail to report their responsibility to make primary payments; for this reason, data matching is often required to determine which reporting entity is responsible to reimburse a given potentially recoverable Claim. Our ability to generate future Claims recovery income is largely dependent on our ability to accurately identify potentially recoverable Claims through our data analytics and ultimately recover on these Claims. Management believes this metric is a useful measure to investors and in managing or monitoring company performance because we view an increase in PVPRC as a positive indicator as it should provide the Company with the ability to increase Claims recovery income and otherwise shows growth.
Billed Value of Potentially Recoverable Claims (“BVPRC”): BVPRC represents the cumulative Billed Amount of potentially recoverable Claims. We analyze our Claims portfolio and identify potentially recoverable Claims using Algorithms to comb through historical paid Claims data and search for potential recoveries. The Company’s BVPRC may increase or decrease over time based on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, receiving new data from existing or new Assignors, changes to our data processing procedures, changes, developments or the elimination of Algorithms that identify potentially recoverable Claims, a decision by management not to litigate certain potentially recoverable Claims, or litigation updates affecting the viability of certain potentially recoverable Claims. For a majority of our Claims, the Company believes it has the ability to recover in excess of the Paid Amount by pursuing the Billed Amount plus interest plus double damages under applicable law. Under existing statutory and case law, the private cause of action under the Medicare Secondary Payer Act permits an award of double damages when a primary plan fails to provide for primary payment or appropriate reimbursement. We believe federal law expressly provides MAOs with the right to charge, or authorize the provider of such services to charge, in accordance with the charges allowed under a law, plan, or primary plan policy. We believe our ability to generate future Claim recovery income is largely dependent on our ability to accurately identify potentially recoverable Claims through our data analytics and ultimately recover on these Claims. Management believes this metric is a useful measure to investors and in managing or monitoring company performance because we view an increase in BVPRC as a positive indicator as it should provide the Company with the ability to increase Claims recovery income and otherwise shows growth.
Recovery Multiple: The vast majority of our recoveries are sought pursuant to the MSP Laws; however, some recoveries are sought under product liability, antitrust, and other various causes of action. For recoveries sought pursuant to the MSP Laws, we generally pursue amounts in excess of the Paid Amount; in other cases, the cause of action will dictate the amount pursued. The Recovery Multiple is the amount of any generated Claims recovery income obtained by the Company in respect to any Claims as compared to the Paid Amount of those Claims (e.g., if a given Claim had a Paid Amount of $100, a $600 recovery would represent a Recovery Multiple of 6x). For these purposes, we record values under the Recovery Multiple once we have recorded Claims recovery income, either through the receipt of cash or recognition of accounts receivable on the Claims. Management believes this metric is useful to investors to manage or monitor the Company’s performance because the Recovery Multiple provides a measure of our ability to recover on Claims recovery rights. A Recovery Multiple above 1x would illustrate the Company’s ability to recover amounts in excess of the Paid Amount. As actual recoveries have been limited to date, this measure has limited utility for historical periods. However, management believes this measure will become more meaningful during the next 12 months and beyond to the extent the Company begins to report actual increases in recoveries during those periods. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has obtained settlements where the Recovery Multiple was or would be in excess of the Paid Amount, and settlements at or below the paid amount. However, these settlements do not provide a large enough sample to be statistically significant and are therefore not shown in the table. As the Recovery Multiple is based on actual recoveries, this measure is not based on the Penetration Status of Portfolio, as described below.
Penetration Status of Portfolio: Penetration Status of Portfolio provides a measure of the Company’s recovery efforts by taking into account the current stages of recovery of Claims in the portfolio and tying it in with the estimated market share of the related primary payers. The total percentage represents the estimated aggregate market share for the respective primary payers in which the Company is in some stage of recovery. As the Company initiates additional recovery efforts against additional primary payers, the Company expects this number to increase. These stages of recovery include where (1) the recovery process has been initiated, (2) data has been collected and matched, or (3) potential resolution discussions are in process. The Company uses third-party sources to estimate the aggregate market share of those primary payers in the property and casualty auto insurance market with whom the Company is engaged in one of these stages of recovery. Management believes this metric is useful to investors and in managing or monitoring company performance because it provides insight as to the estimated share of the market that is covered by existing recovery efforts. We estimate that cases that are in the potential resolution discussions and/or data matching are closer to generating potential future Claims recovery income.

Key Components of Our Results of Operations
The following represent the components of our results of operations.
Revenue
Claims recovery income
Our primary income-producing activities are associated with the pursuit and recovery of proceeds related to Claims recovery rights that the Company obtains through CCRAs, which are irrevocably assigned to us. As such, this income is not generated from the transfer of control of goods or services to customers, but through the proceeds realized from perfection of Claims recoveries from rights we own. We recognize Claims recovery income based on a gain contingency model; that is, when the amounts are reasonably certain of collection. This typically occurs upon reaching a binding settlement or arbitration with the counterparty or when the legal proceedings, including any appellate process, are resolved.
In some cases, we would owe an additional payment to the original Assignor in connection with the realized value of the recovery right. Claims recovery income is recognized on a gross basis, as we are entitled to the full value of recovery proceeds and make payment to the original Assignor similar to a royalty arrangement. Such payments to our Assignors are recognized as cost of Claims recovery in the same period the Claims recovery income is recognized.
Claims recovery service income
In the past, we have recognized Claims recovery service income for our services to a related party and a third party to assist those entities with pursuit of Claims recovery rights. We have determined we have a single performance obligation for the series of daily activities that comprise Claims recovery services, which are recognized over time using a time-based progress measure. We enter into Claims recovery service contracts with third parties. Amounts payable for services to third parties are typically based on budgeted expenses for the current month with an adjustment for the variance between budget and actual expenses from the prior month.
The Company did not recognize any claims recovery service income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Other revenue
Other revenue consists of fee revenue generated by the Company’s new electronic health records (“EHR”) platform, which went live in the second quarter of 2024. Other revenue was not significant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Operating Expenses
Costs of revenue
Costs of revenue consist of all directly attributable costs specifically associated with Claims processing activities, including contingent payments payable to Assignors (i.e., settlement expenses) and any other revenue generating activity.
Claims amortization expense
Claims Amortization Expense consists of the amortization of CCRA intangible assets for those CCRAs in which we made upfront payments or commitments in order to acquire Claims recovery rights.
40
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses for employees involved in general corporate, sales, and marketing functions, including executive management and administration, legal, human resources, accounting, finance, tax, and information technology. Personnel-related expenses primarily include wages and bonuses. General and administrative expenses also consist of rent, IT costs, insurance, and other office expenses.
As we continue to grow as a company and build our team, we expect that our general and administrative costs will increase.
Allowance for credit losses
Allowance for credit losses consists of a specific reserve for a receivable amount due from Cano. Due to its material nature, it is included separately in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Professional fees
Professional fees consist of consulting, accounting, and other professional fees that are charged for services provided by third-party vendors.
Professional fees – legal
Professional fees – legal consists of payments for the expenses of the Law Firm covered by a certain Legal Services Agreement and other legal professional services from third-party providers, including payments to co-counsel.
Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense consist of depreciation and amortization of property and equipment related to our investments in leasehold improvements, office and computer equipment, and internally generated capitalized software development costs. We provide for depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets over their estimated useful lives.
Interest Expense

Other Income (Expense)
Other income consists of equity investment earnings, some affiliate related income, mark-to-market gain (loss) for payments due in stock, invoice cancellations, settlement income, and interest income. Other expenses consist of bank service charges, airing fees, tax penalties, settlement expense, political contributions and donations, and some affiliate related expenses.
Changes in Fair Value of Warrant and Derivative Liabilities
Changes in fair value of warrants and derivative liabilities consists of the mark-to-market of warrant liabilities due to Public Warrants and Virage Warrants as noted in Note 3, Business Combination.
Income Tax Benefit
As a result of the Business Combination, the Company became the sole managing member of MSP Recovery, which is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal, state, and local income tax purposes. As a partnership, MSP Recovery is not subject to U.S. federal and certain state and local income taxes. Any taxable income or loss generated by MSP Recovery is passed through to and included in the taxable income or loss of its partners, including MSP Recovery, Inc. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income taxes, in addition to state and local income taxes, with respect to the Company’s allocable share of income of MSP Recovery. The Company’s deferred tax balances reflect the impact of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and the Company’s tax basis. The balances are stated at the tax rates in effect when the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company reviewed the anticipated future realization of the tax benefit of the Company’s existing deferred tax assets and concluded that it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized in the future.

Other revenue. Other revenue was $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase is related to a new service introduced in the second quarter of 2024.
Cost of revenue. Cost of revenue increased by $1.1 million to $1.7 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in the prior year, driven by Assignor and law firm costs, which are directly correlated to the increase in claims recovery income.

General and administrative.

Professional fees. Professional fees increased by $0.8 million to $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily driven by an increase of $1.5 million in corporate legal fees and $0.4 million in consulting fees, offset by a $0.7 million reduction in accounting fees, and a $0.5 reduction in other professional fees.
Professional fees – legal. Professional fees – legal decreased by $4.7 million to $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to fees to outsourced law firms being managed by the Law Firm.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, this Quarterly Report also contains non-GAAP financial measures. We consider “adjusted net loss” and “adjusted operating loss” as non-GAAP financial measures and important indicators of performance and useful metrics for management and investors to evaluate the Company’s ongoing operating performance on a consistent basis across reporting periods. We believe these measures provide useful information to investors. Adjusted net loss represents net loss adjusted for certain non-cash and non-recurring expenses, and adjusted operating loss items represent operating loss adjusted for certain non-cash and non-recurring expenses. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most relevant GAAP measure is included below:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Going Concern
As an early-stage growth company, the Company has incurred substantial net losses since inception. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had unrestricted cash totaling $4.7 million, and as of October 31, 2024, the company had unrestricted cash totaling $5.6 million. The Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows since inception and has an accumulated deficit of $159.4 million as of September 30, 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company used approximately $17.9 million of cash in operations. The Company’s liquidity will depend on the ability to generate substantial revenue in the near future, the timing and amount of which is uncertain, as well as its ability to secure funding from additional third-party capital sources. The Company’s principal liquidity needs have been working capital, debt service, and Claims financing obligations.
The Company anticipates sources of liquidity to include the Working Capital Credit Facility and the Yorkville SEPA as disclosed in Note 10, Claims Financing Obligations and Notes Payable, and has taken several actions to address liquidity concerns, including actions enumerated below. However, as discussed further below, the Company has concluded management’s plans were not sufficient to alleviate the substantial doubt:
44
The Company has concluded that, despite the aforementioned financing arrangements, there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Unless we are successful in raising additional funds through the offering of debt or equity securities, we have concluded it is probable we will be unable to continue to operate as a going concern beyond the next twelve months. In the event that the Company receives an audit report from its independent registered public accounting firm with an emphasis of matter paragraph as to going concern in connection with the Company’s audited annual financial statements, such event would result in an event of default in the aforementioned debt agreements, which would result in the debt becoming immediately due; however, the Company has received waivers from (i) Virage and VRM and (ii) HPH and Hazel if such an event were to occur for the year ending December 31, 2024.
Sources of Liquidity
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had unrestricted cash totaling $4.7 million. Over the next twelve months, the Company anticipates that its sources of liquidity will be its current cash on hand, the Working Capital Credit Facility and the Yorkville SEPA, as disclosed in Note 10 to the Financial Statements. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $4.7 million of cash on hand, and $8.75 million of available capacity under the Working Capital Credit Facility. The Company has $5.25 million of remaining capacity for working capital under the Operational Collection Floor as of the date of this filing.
Hazel Working Capital Credit Facility
On March 29, 2023, Subrogation Holdings entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Working Capital Credit Facility”) with Hazel Partners Holdings LLC (“HPH”), an affiliate of Hazel, as the lender and administrative agent, which provides for up to $80 million (with a 40% original issue discount), consisting of a Term Loan A commitment to fund up to $30 million in proceeds (in multiple installments), and a Term Loan B Commitment to fund up to $18 million in proceeds (in multiple installments), the funding of each conditioned on certain milestones. The amended terms to the Working Capital Credit Facility were memorialized in the Second Amended and Restated First Lien Credit Agreement dated November 10, 2023 (as further amended by the amendments thereto dated December 15, 2023, December 22, 2023, and October 1, 2024, the “Hazel Credit Agreement”).
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had received funding with an aggregate amount of $20.5 million under Term Loan A, which was terminated in 2023. The parties agreed to increase the Term Loan B commitment from $18 million to $27.5 million, after giving effect to the original issue discount on the Working Capital Credit Facility, which would be funded in multiple installments and in accordance with the terms of the Working Capital Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2024, the Company received funding with an aggregate amount of $20.8 million under Term Loan B.
On August 2, 2024, Subrogation Holdings entered into a letter agreement to amend the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “HPH Letter Agreement”) with HPH, which, among other things, provides for a $3.3 million loan (with a 40% original issue discount) to be funded by August 31, 2024 for the purpose of acquiring additional Claims (the “New Claims”) that will further collateralize the Working Capital Credit Facility. On August 29, 2024, the Company received funding of $2.0 million under the
45
Operational Collection Floor for the purpose of acquiring the New Claims from an existing Assignor, and on August 30, 2024, the Company acquired recovery rights associated with the New Claims for $2.0 million. The parties formalized the terms of the HPH Letter Agreement in Amendment No. 3 to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated October 1, 2024.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company received under the Operational Collection Floor: (i) on August 2, 2024, $3.5 million of working capital for July and August 2024; (ii) on September 3, 2024, $1.75 million of working capital for September 2024; (iii) on October 2, 2024, $1.75 million of working capital for October 2024; and (iv) on October 24, 2024, $1.75 million of working capital for November 2024. The Company has $5.25 million of remaining capacity for working capital under the Operational Collection Floor as of the date of this filing.
Amounts borrowed and obligations under the Working Capital Credit Facility are secured by a pledge of proceeds from certain Claims in the Company’s Claims portfolio, with the lien securing the Purchase Money Loan being subordinated and junior to the lien securing the Working Capital Credit Facility. Pursuant to Amendment No. 3 to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, Term Loan A and Term Loan B of the Working Capital Credit Facility are subordinated to the Operational Collection Floor and collateralized by the New Claims.
MSP Principals Promissory Note
On June 16, 2022, the MSP Principals provided cash to the Company to finance operations in an aggregate amount of $112.8 million. The Company issued the MSP Principals Promissory Note to the MSP Principals in an aggregate principal amount of $112.8 million that has an annual interest rate of 4%, payable in kind, and matures on the day that is the four-year anniversary of the issuance. On the maturity date, the Company is required to pay the MSP Principals an amount in cash equal to the outstanding principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The promissory note is prepayable by the Company at any time, without prepayment penalties, fees or other expenses. In addition to the amounts in the Promissory Note, at the merger date with LCAP, the MSP Principals contributed $13.0 million through funds that had been loaned to VRM MSP to cover related service fees. A portion of the proceeds under the MSP Principals Promissory Note in an amount equal to $36.5 million was advanced to the Law Firm for certain operating expenses as contemplated by the Legal Services Agreement. The MSP Principals Promissory Note contains customary events of default that would allow the MSP Principals to declare the MSP Principals Promissory Note immediately due and payable or the MSP Principals Promissory Note will immediately and automatically become due and payable without notice, presentment, demand, protest or other request of any kind. In addition, the MSP Principals Promissory Note may be accelerated by the MSP Principals if the Board of Directors of the Company (excluding the MSP Principals) terminates the Legal Services Agreement.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company received a $4.95 million loan from the Law Firm, evidenced by an unsecured promissory note, to provide general operational funding. The aggregate unpaid principal amount of this promissory note is due 24 months from the date of the last advance from the Working Capital Credit Facility is made. This promissory note is payable by the Company at any time, without prepayment penalties, fees, or other expenses. The note does not carry any interest and can be repaid at any time or from time to time without a prepayment penalty. On March 4, 2024, the Board authorized the partial repayment of the Law Firm Loan in the amount of $0.4 million, which funds were to be used for the express purpose of paying property taxes on real property owned and pledged by the MSP Principals to HPH as collateral in connection with the Working Capital Credit Facility.
Virage Amendments
On April 12, 2023, we entered into an amendment (the “Virage MTA Amendment”) to the Virage MTA and Virage Guaranty pursuant to which the VRM Full Return payment due date was extended from May 23, 2023 until September 30, 2024, subject to acceleration upon certain triggering events. The Virage MTA Amendment changed the payment methods to Virage to exclusively be, in the following order of priority: (a) a first priority lien on all sources of revenue of the Company not otherwise encumbered as of the date of the Virage MTA Amendment to the extent such revenues and liquidity exceed the amount of net of revenues necessary to establish and maintain an operating reserve (“Operating Reserve”) of $70 million (the Operating Reserve was reduced to $47.5 million on July 24, 2023) for certain Company expenses, (b) a sale of certain reserved shares of Messrs. John H. Ruiz and Frank C. Quesada, and the delivery of the resulting net cash proceeds thereof to VRM, (c) Parent’s sale of additional shares and delivery of proceeds to Virage, subject to certain anti-dilution provisions, (d) if not satisfied by the foregoing, a sale by Messrs. Ruiz and Quesada other shares of Messrs. Ruiz and Quesada, and the delivery of the resulting net cash proceeds thereof to VRM; provided that if the VRM Full Return is not fully paid by September 30, 2024 the VRM Full Return shall be payable by any of such payment methods in any order of priority. In addition, in connection therewith, Messrs. Quesada and Ruiz agreed to certain transfer restrictions applicable to their common stock, and agreed to effectuate sales of Company common stock in certain circumstances.
On November 13, 2023, the Company entered into the Second Virage MTA Amendment that extended the VRM Full Return payment due date to December 31, 2024, subject to acceleration upon certain triggering events. The Second Virage MTA Amendment also: (a) changed the Operating Reserve from $47.5 million to the budget of the Company (plus applicable taxes) plus 10%, and (b) required Virage and the Company negotiate and agree on a form of initial warrant and monthly warrant by no later than December 31, 2023. In addition, pursuant to the Second Virage MTA Amendment, on January 1, 2024, the Company was required to make a one-time, lump sum payment to Virage for the period starting May 24, 2023 and ending December 31, 2023, in one or a combination of: (a) cash, in an amount equal to 1.0% of each calendar month-end balance (which month-end balance shall be increased daily up to 20% per annum based on a formula set forth in the Virage MTA Amendment) of the amount owing to Virage as of each preceding calendar month end and/or (b) warrants to purchase Class A common stock at $0.0001 per share, in an amount equal to the quotient of 1.0% of each calendar month-end balance (which month-end balance shall be increased daily up to 20% per annum based on a formula set forth
46
in the Virage MTA Amendment) of the amount owing to Virage as of each preceding calendar month end and the volume weighted average price of a share of our Class A common stock for the five day period prior to the issuance.
Accordingly, the Company issued the VRM Warrants. The Initial Virage Warrant, as amended, was issued effective January 1, 2024 and entitles Virage to purchase 28,298,329 shares of Class A Common Stock, with an expiration date of January 1, 2026. The Virage Warrants are recorded as warrant liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Monthly Virage Warrants with effective dates prior to July 1, 2024 were issued, entitling Virage to purchase 58,129,012 shares of Class A Common Stock. Monthly Virage Warrants with effective dates falling within the quarter ending September 30, 2024 were issued, entitling Virage to purchase 91,033,992 shares of Class A Common Stock to settle interest payable for the months of June, July, and August, 2024. For the three and nine months ending September 30, 2024, the issuance of VRM Warrants settled $31.4 million and $145.9 million of interest, respectively. A Monthly Virage Warrant with an effective date of October 1, 2024 was issued after quarter end, entitling Virage to purchase 66,322,033 shares of Class A Common Stock to settle interest payable for the month of September 2024.
Until our obligations to Virage are paid in full, the Company has the option every month to continue to pay Virage in one or a combination of: (a) cash, in an amount equal to 1.0% of each calendar month-end balance (which month-end balance shall be increased daily up to 20% per annum based on a formula set forth in the Virage MTA Amendment) of the amount owing to Virage as of each preceding calendar month end and/or (b) the issuance of subsequent Monthly Virage Warrants.
On April 1, 2024, the Company entered into the Third Virage MTA Amendment (the “Third Virage MTA Amendment”) which: (i) extended the VRM Full Return payment due date to September 30, 2025, subject to acceleration upon certain triggering events; (ii) the Company agreed that, after the Convertible Notes are fully satisfied, 25% of the Company’s portion of any net proceeds from the Yorkville SEPA would be used to pay down the VRM Full Return; and (iii) Messrs. John H. Ruiz and Frank C. Quesada would commence the sale of certain of their reserved shares, and the delivery of the resulting net cash proceeds thereof to VRM.
Amended and Restated Nomura Promissory Note
On May 27, 2022, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to Nomura in a principal amount of approximately $24.5 million related to advisory fees and deferred underwriting fees and expenses that became due and payable by the Company to Nomura, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination (as defined herein).
On April 12, 2023, the Company amended and restated the promissory note originally issued on May 27, 2022 (the “First Amended and Restated Nomura Note”), increasing the principal amount to approximately $26.3 million, increasing the interest rate from 8.0% to 16% per annum, and extending the maturity date of the promissory note to September 30, 2024. On November 13, 2023, the Company amended and restated the First Amended and Restated Nomura Note (the “Second Amended and Restated Nomura Note”) to (a) increase the principal amount to approximately $28.9 million, (b) extend the maturity date to December 31, 2024, and (c) permit the Company to use the proceeds of an at-the-market offering to repay indebtedness incurred by the Company for which the proceeds are used for operating expenses, subject to certain enumerated restrictions. On March 26, 2024, the Company amended and restated the Second Amended and Restated Nomura Note (the “Third Amended and Restated Nomura Note”) to (a) increase the principal amount to approximately $30.0 million, and (b) extend the maturity date to September 30, 2025. The amended note carries an interest rate of 16% per annum and Third Amended and Restated Nomura Note is payable in kind or in cash, at the Company’s discretion, every 30 calendar days after March 26, 2024. Upon two days prior written notice to Nomura, the Company may prepay all or any portion of the then outstanding principal amount under the promissory note together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The balance of the unsecured promissory note and related interest are included within Claims financing obligations and notes payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The note became current on September 30, 2024, and the Company does not currently have available liquidity to satisfy said obligation.
Yorkville SEPA
On January 6, 2023, we entered into a purchase agreement with YA II PN, Ltd., a Cayman Island exempted company (“Yorkville”), pursuant to which Yorkville committed to purchase up to $1 billion in shares of Class A Common Stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth therein. On November 14, 2023, we entered into the Yorkville SEPA, which fully amended and restated the January 6, 2023 agreement.
Pursuant to the Yorkville SEPA, the Company has the right to sell to Yorkville up to $250.0 million of its Class A Common Stock, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the Yorkville SEPA, from time to time during the term of the Yorkville SEPA. Sales of Class A Common Stock to Yorkville under the Yorkville SEPA, and the timing of any such sales, are at the Company’s option, and the Company is under no obligation to sell any shares of Class A Common Stock to Yorkville under the Yorkville SEPA except in connection with notices that may be submitted by Yorkville, in certain circumstances as described below.
Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Yorkville SEPA, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, from time to time at its discretion until the Yorkville SEPA is terminated to direct Yorkville to purchase a specified number of shares of Class A Common Stock (“Advance”) by delivering written notice to Yorkville (“Advance Notice”). While there is no mandatory minimum amount for any Advance, it may not exceed an amount equal to 100% of the average of the daily traded amount during the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding an Advance Notice.
The shares of Class A Common Stock purchased pursuant to an Advance Notice delivered by the Company will be purchased at a price equal to (i) 98% of the VWAP of the shares of Class A Common Stock on the applicable date of delivery of the Advance Notice
47
during regular trading hours on such date or (ii) 97% of the lowest daily VWAP of the shares of Class A Common Stock during the three consecutive trading days commencing on the date of the delivery of the Advance Notice, other than the daily VWAP on a day in which the daily VWAP is less than a minimum acceptable price as stated by the Company in the Advance Notice or there is no VWAP on the subject trading day. The Company may establish a minimum acceptable price in each Advance Notice below which the Company will not be obligated to make any sales to Yorkville. “VWAP” is defined as the daily volume weighted average price of the shares of Class A Common Stock for such trading day on the Nasdaq Stock Market during regular trading hours as reported by Bloomberg L.P.
In connection with the Yorkville SEPA, and subject to the condition set forth therein, Yorkville agreed to advance to the Company in the form of convertible promissory notes (the “Convertible Notes”) an aggregate principal amount of $15.0 million. On November 14, 2023, we issued a Convertible Note to Yorkville in the principal amount of $5.0 million, resulting in proceeds to us of $4.73 million on November 16, 2023. On December 11, 2023, we issued a Convertible Note to Yorkville in the principal amount of $5.0 million, resulting in proceeds to us of $4.75 million. On April 8, 2024, we issued a third Convertible Note to Yorkville in the principal amount of $5.0 million, resulting in net proceeds to us of $4.75 million.
As required pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Nomura Promissory Note, 50% of the aggregate proceeds under the Yorkville SEPA will be used to repay amounts outstanding under the Amended and Restated Nomura Promissory Note (first towards accrued and unpaid interest, if any, then towards principal) and the remaining 50% of such proceeds will be used to repay amounts due under the Convertible Notes, if any, or be paid to the Company after the Convertible Notes are fully repaid. Pursuant to the Third Virage MTA Amendment, 25% of the Company’s portion of any net proceeds from the Yorkville SEPA would be used to pay down the VRM Full Return after the Convertible Notes are fully satisfied.
Pursuant to the Convertible Notes, Yorkville has the option, subject to certain limitations, of exchanging on one or more occasions all or part of the then outstanding balance under the note for shares of our Class A Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the lower of: (i) a fixed price equaling 120% of VWAP the day prior to the date of the closing of each tranche (the “Fixed Price”) or (ii) a variable price equaling 95% of the lowest daily VWAP during the seven consecutive trading days immediately preceding the exchange (the “Variable Price”), but in no event may the variable price be lower than $0.15 per share (the “Floor Price” as lowered pursuant to the Yorkville Letter Agreement). With respect to the initial Convertible Note issued on November 15, 2023, the Fixed Price equals $8.0225 per share, with respect to the second Convertible Note issued on December 11, 2023, the Fixed Price equals $3.7136 per share, and with respect to the third Convertible Note issued on April 8, 2024, the Fixed Price equals $1.5050 per share.
Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default, the Convertible Notes shall become immediately due and payable, and the Company shall pay to Yorkville the principal and interest due thereunder. Events of default include, among others: (i) the Class A Common Stock shall cease to be quoted or listed for trading, as applicable, on any primary market for a period of ten (10) consecutive trading days (the Company is currently quoted and listed for trading on the NASDAQ) and (ii) failure to timely file with the SEC any periodic report on or before the due date of such filing as established by the SEC, including extensions under Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act. In no event shall Yorkville be allowed to effect a conversion if such conversion, along with all other shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Yorkville and its affiliates would exceed 9.99% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Company. If any time on or after November 14, 2023: (i) the daily VWAP is less than the Floor Price for ten consecutive trading days (“Floor Price Trigger”), (ii) the Company has issued substantially all of the shares available under the Exchange Cap (as defined below) (“Exchange Cap Trigger”), or (iii) the Parent is in material breach of the Registration Rights Agreement, and such breach remains uncured for a period of twenty trading days, or the occurrence of an “Event” (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) (“Registration Event Trigger” and collectively with the Floor Price Trigger and the Exchange Cap Trigger, the “Trigger”), then the Company shall make monthly payments to Yorkville beginning on the seventh trading day after the Trigger and continuing monthly in the amount of $1.5 million plus a 5.0% premium and accrued and unpaid interest. The Exchange Cap Trigger will not apply in the event the Company has obtained the approval from its stockholders in accordance with the rules of Nasdaq Stock Market for the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the transactions contemplated in the Convertible Note and the Yorkville SEPA in excess of 19.99% of the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the effective date of the Yorkville SEPA (the “Exchange Cap”).
Yorkville, at its discretion and providing that there is a balance remaining outstanding under the Convertible Notes, may deliver a notice under the Yorkville SEPA requiring the issuance and sale of shares of Class A Common Stock to Yorkville at the Conversion Price in consideration of an offset of the Convertible Notes (“Yorkville Advance”). Yorkville, in its sole discretion, may select the amount of any Yorkville Advance, provided that the number of shares issued does not cause Yorkville to exceed the 9.99% ownership limitation, does not exceed the Exchange Cap or the amount of shares of Class A Common Stock that are registered. As a result of a Yorkville Advance, the amounts payable under the Convertible Notes will be offset by such amount subject to each Yorkville Advance.
The Company will control the timing and amount of any sales of shares of Class A Common Stock to Yorkville, except with respect to the conversion of the Convertible Notes. Actual sales of shares of Class A Common Stock to Yorkville as an Advance under the Yorkville SEPA will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company from time to time, which may include, among other things, market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and determinations by the Company as to the appropriate sources of funding for our business and operations.
The Yorkville SEPA will automatically terminate on the earliest to occur of: (i) the first day of the month following the 36-month anniversary of the date of the Yorkville SEPA, or (ii) the date on which Yorkville shall have made payment of Advances pursuant to the Yorkville SEPA for shares of Class A Common Stock equal to $250.0 million. The Company has the right to terminate the Yorkville SEPA at no cost or penalty upon five (5) trading days’ prior written notice to Yorkville, provided that there are no outstanding Advance
48
Notices for which shares of Class A Common Stock need to be issued and the Company has paid all amounts owed to Yorkville pursuant to the Convertible Notes. The Company and Yorkville may also agree to terminate the Yorkville SEPA by mutual written consent. Neither the Company nor Yorkville may assign or transfer the Company’s respective rights and obligations under the Yorkville SEPA, and no provision of the Yorkville SEPA may be modified or waived by the Company or Yorkville other than by an instrument in writing signed by both parties.
The Yorkville SEPA contains customary representations, warranties, conditions and indemnification obligations of the parties. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in such agreements were made only for purposes of such agreements and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreements and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.
The net proceeds under the Yorkville SEPA to the Company will depend on the frequency and prices at which the Company sells its shares of Class A Common Stock to Yorkville. The Company expects that any proceeds received from such sales to Yorkville will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
On April 8, 2024, the Company and Yorkville entered into the Yorkville Letter Agreement to: (1) reduce the Floor Price from $1.28 to $1.00; (2) waive the first monthly payment due to the Floor Price Trigger, thereby curing the Floor Price Trigger; and (3) extend the maturity date of the Convertible Notes to September 30, 2025. On April 12, 2024, Yorkville further agreed that, to the extent that it holds Class A Common Stock in such quantities that would prevent the Company from utilizing the SEPA solely due to the Ownership Limitation, Yorkville commits to fund an additional advance in the principal amount of $13.0 million on the same terms and conditions as the previous advances pursuant to the Yorkville SEPA. On May 2, 2024, the Company and Yorkville reached an agreement to: (i) reduce the Floor Price under the Yorkville SEPA from $1.00 to $0.50. On July 11, 2024, the daily VWAP for our Class A Common Stock had been below the Floor Price for ten consecutive trading days, resulting in a Floor Price Trigger. On July 12, 2024, Yorkville agreed to extend the due date for the first Monthly Payment, due as a result of a Floor Price Trigger, to September 11, 2024. On August 13, 2024, the Company and Yorkville reached an agreement to reduce the Floor Price under the Yorkville SEPA from $0.50 to $0.15, thereby curing the Floor Price Trigger pursuant to the terms of the Yorkville SEPA. At the close of trading on October 18, 2024, the daily VWAP for the Company’s Class A Common Stock was below the Floor Price for ten consecutive trading days, resulting in a Floor Price Trigger, as defined in the Convertible Notes. Pursuant to a letter agreement dated November 7, 2024, Yorkville has agreed that the first Monthly Payment, as defined in the Convertible Notes, would be due from the Company no sooner than December 18, 2024. The Convertible Notes became current on September 30, 2024, and the Company does not currently have available liquidity to satisfy said obligations.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company sold 10,049,967 and 11,859,069 shares to Yorkville, respectively, pursuant to investor notices delivered under the Yorkville SEPA at prices between $0.15 and $0.84 per share, and the proceeds were used to: (i) reduce amounts owed under Yorkville Note #1 by $1.3 million and $53.6 thousand of principal and interest, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and $1.8 million and $0.2 million of principal and interest, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and (ii) $1.4 million and $2.0 million of payment to reduce amounts owed under the Amended and Restated Nomura Promissory Note for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Assignment and Sale of Proceeds Agreement
On June 30, 2022, the Company entered into an Assignment and Sale of Proceeds Agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”) and a Recovery Services Agreement (the “Services Agreement” and collectively, the “Agreements”) with the Prudent Group (“Prudent”) in order to monetize up to $250.0 million of the value of the Company’s net recovery interest in Claim demand letters that the Company has commenced sending to insurers who admitted they had primary payer responsibility for the underlying accidents to the federal government (“Net Recovery Proceeds”). Pursuant to the Agreements, at the Company’s sole and absolute discretion, the Company has the right to direct Prudent to acquire, on a non-recourse basis, a percentage of Net Recovery Proceeds, up to an aggregate of $250.0 million, at a purchase price of 90% of Net Recovery Proceeds of such Claim.
Under the Services Agreement, the Company will service and recover on the demand letters and will retain any revenues generated in excess of the amount received from Prudent, plus up to an 18% annual return on the amount Prudent paid for Net Recovery Proceeds. Prudent may terminate the Services Agreement upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to the Company. The Company plans to utilize the Assignment Agreement as funding is needed. To date, the Company has not exercised its rights pursuant to the Services Agreement and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future.
Actual results, including sources and uses of cash, may differ from our current estimates due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making those estimates and any such differences may impact the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in the future. The expenditures associated with the development and launch of our additional recovery services and the anticipated increase in Claims recovery capacity are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, which may affect the timing and magnitude of these anticipated expenditures. These risks and uncertainties are described in more detail in the “Risk Factors” section in the 2023 Form 10-K.
The Agreements that the Company entered into on June 30, 2022 with Prudent have been terminated effective August 13, 2024.

Investment Capacity Agreement
On September 27, 2021, the Company entered into an Investment Capacity Agreement (the “ICA”) providing for potential future transactions regarding select healthcare Claims recovery interests with its investment partner, Virage, which transactions may include the sale of Claims by MSP. The ICA provides that the maximum value of such Claims will be $3.0 billion.
When the Company takes an assignment, the Company takes an assignment of the entire recovery but often has a contractual obligation to pay the Assignor 50% of any recoveries. This 50% interest typically is retained by the Assignor (the “Retained Interest”), although in some cases, the Company has acquired all of the recoveries, and the applicable Assignor has not kept any Retained Interest. The Retained Interest is not an asset of the Company, but an obligation to pay these Assignors, with the Company keeping the other 50% interest on any recoveries. Virage’s funding in connection with future transactions generally will be used to purchase Retained Interests from existing Assignors or new MSP Assignors, although its funds can also be used to buy 50% of the recoveries from the Company, in the event the applicable Assignor did not retain any Retained Interest. In connection with transactions consummated under the ICA, the Company may receive certain fees, including a finder’s fee for identifying the recoveries and a servicing fee for servicing the Claims.
Pursuant to the ICA, the Company will assist Virage in acquiring these Retained Interests for a cash price. Virage will be paid the recovery generated from the purchased Retained Interests when received through litigation or settlements. The ICA is separate and distinct from the equity investment in the Company by VRM MSP (an affiliate of Virage).
The ICA has been terminated effective November 12, 2024.

截至2024年9月30日止九個月的投資活動使用的淨現金相比於2023年9月30日止九個月提供的淨現金從1010萬美元變動至240萬美元。在2024年9月30日止九個月期間,我們用於投資活動的現金涉及收購額外CCRA的金額爲220萬美元,以及購買房地產、廠房和設備的金額爲20萬美元。
籌資活動
截至2024年9月30日的九個月,融資活動提供的淨現金減少至1330萬美元,而截至2023年9月30日的九個月融資活動提供的淨現金爲1540萬美元。這主要是由於債務融資的收入爲1650萬美元和普通股發行的收入爲200萬美元,而這被償還的索賠融資義務480萬美元和相關方貸款償還40萬美元所抵消。
合同義務、承諾和或有事項
根據索賠融資義務和應付票據協議,截至2024年9月30日,這些義務下欠款的現值爲63830萬美元,包括當日已資本化的利息。另外,截至2024年9月30日和2023年12月31日,公司分別從約克維爾獲得1320萬美元和1000萬美元的預付款。根據目前63830萬美元的賬面價值和0.0%至20.0%的區間利率,加權平均利率爲14.9%。預計公司將通過索賠收入的現金流還款這些義務。
截至2024年9月30日,這些協議的最低要求付款爲78780萬美元。其中某些協議在完全清償剩餘款項之前具有付款優先權。承諾的到期時間爲從收到足夠索賠賠償以支付所需回報的日期,或在某些情況下爲2031年。
截至2024年9月30日,公司有107710萬的擔保義務。2023年4月12日,我們簽署了Virage MTA修正案,根據該修正案,付款日期從2023年5月23日延長至2024年9月30日,視特定觸發事件而加快。2023年11月13日,到期日期延長至2024年12月31日。根據Virage MTA修正案,Virage將獲得公司所有未另有負擔的營業收入優先留置權,超過Virage MTA修正案日期當日用於設立和維持用於一週開支和適用稅款的7000萬美元進行運作儲備的收入金額的部分。2023年7月24日,運作儲備調整到4750萬美元,並根據第二次Virage MTA修正案,運作儲備從4750萬美元調整到公司預算(加上適用稅款)加10%。2024年4月1日,公司簽署了第三個Virage MTA修正案,其中:(i)將VRm全額歸還款項截止日期延長至2025年9月30日,根據特定觸發事件而加快;(ii)公司同意,在可轉換票據得到完全清償後,將來自Yorkville SEPA淨收益的公司所佔份額的25%用於支付VRm全額歸還;(iii)啓動對John H. Ruiz和Frank C. Quesada先生的部分儲備股份的出售,並將其產生的淨現金收益交付給VRm。
重要會計估計
我們在本季度報告的表格10-Q中包含的簡化的合併財務報表及相關附註是按照GAAP準則準備的。我們準備簡化的合併財務報表時需要對金額和相關披露進行估計和假設,這些估計和假設會影響我們財務報表和附註中的報告金額。我們的估計基於歷史經驗和我們認爲在該情況下是合理的各種因素,並且結果構成了對於資產和負債的賬面價值進行判斷的基礎,這些賬面價值不能從其他來源中輕易獲取。由於在進行這些估計時涉及固有的不確定性,實際結果可能會因在不同假設或條件下的這些估計與實際結果的不同而產生差異,而且這些差異可能是重大的。
我們的關鍵會計政策和估計在“管理層對財務狀況和經營結果的討論與分析 - 關鍵會計政策”中披露於我們的2023年10-K表格中,並且在截止到2024年9月30日的三個月和九個月期間沒有發生重大變化。
項目 3關於市場風險的定量和定性披露。
我們是根據交易所法規120億.2規定而被定義爲較小的報告公司,並且不需要根據該項要求提供其他信息。
51
Item 4。控制和程序。
披露控件和程序的評估
我們維護披露控制和程序(根據交易所法第13a-15(e)條款的定義),旨在確保我們在根據交易所法提交的報告中所需披露的信息被記錄、處理、彙總和報告,符合證監會的規則和表格要求,且我們在根據交易所法提交的報告中所需披露的信息能夠被彙總並傳達給我們的管理層,包括我們的首席執行官和致富金融(臨時代碼)首席財務官,以便及時做出關於所需披露的決策。
針對財務報告的內部控制
管理層在我們首席執行官和首席財務官的參與下,對截至2024年9月30日的披露控制和程序的有效性進行了評估。根據該評估,我們的管理層,包括首席執行官和首席財務官,得出結論認爲截至2024年9月30日,我們的財務報告內部控件並不有效,因爲2023年10-K表格中識別的人力資源流程存在的重大缺陷尚未整改完畢,包括用戶訪問控制的設計和控件操作、系統實施的變更管理以及工資條目的批准,同時在合同終止的會計覈算方面也存在重大缺陷,包括對供應商服務合同終止的會計覈算。上述重大缺陷的整改工作正在進行中。
管理層認爲上述的重大弱點並未對我們的財務結果產生影響。
關於財務報告內控的變化
在最近的財政季度內,我們的內部財務報告控制未發生任何變化,這些變化對我們的內部財務報告控制的重大影響,或者可能對我們的內部財務報告控制產生重大影響。
52
第二部分-其他信息
Item 1法律訴訟。
我們可能會不時捲入法律訴訟,或在我們業務的正常過程中受到索賠。無論結果如何,這些訴訟或索賠都可能對我們產生不利影響,因爲涉及軍工股和和解費用、資源分散以及其他因素,而且不能保證會取得有利的結果。
調查 儘管本協議中的任何內容相反,但本協議並不妨礙您向政府機構提供可能違法行爲的信息,或者在可能涉及違法行爲的任何政府機構的調查或訴訟中作證或參與, 爲了明確起見,您無權根據《證券交易所法》第21F條向證券交易委員會自願提供信息。
根據先前披露,2022年8月11日,證券交易委員會(「SEC」)啓動了對公司的調查,並要求有關業務合併交易以及獅心收購公司II於2022年5月23日完成的文件,某些歷史和預測的財務結果,投資者協議以及數據分析平台和算法。公司收到了SEC於2023年3月1日關於前述主題的傳票,並隨後在2023年5月10日收到了有關調查的進一步傳票,其中包括公司的預測、某些資產的會計和估值,這些資產是公司決定其截至2022年6月30日和2022年9月30日的季度財務報表需要重述並且不應再依賴的依據,如公司於2023年4月14日在8-K表中披露的。於2023年8月16日,公司收到了SEC關於業務合併之前公司的某些資金來源,公司在業務合併前後關於業務合併的各種聲明和披露,某些歷史和預測的財務結果以及用於確定潛在收入的數據分析平台和算法的進一步傳票。公司打算全力配合SEC回應這些傳票。
此外,2023年3月10日,公司收到了美國律師辦公室("USAO")的傳票,此次傳票與佛羅里達州南區聯邦法院的一個大陪審團調查有關,要求提供有關公司的某些信息,該傳票請求與公司專有算法及其他用於識別潛在可回收索賠的軟件有關的文件,涉及公司的普通股在與業務合併後價格下跌的情況,以及出示給潛在投資者的某些市場材料和投資協議。2024年7月18日,公司收到了來自USAO的另一份傳票,要求提供與公司新聞稿相關的文件。根據公司的最佳了解,司法部沒有因該調查向與公司相關的任何人發出目標信函(美國檢察官手冊中指出,"目標"指的是檢察官或大陪審團有實質證據將其與犯罪行爲聯繫起來的人,並且在檢察官的判斷中,他或她是擬被告)。
公司已經並將繼續全力配合這些調查。關於2022年10-K表格的準備和提交事項的審查,特別委員會及其聘請的外部顧問也審查了與2023年6月之前收到的前述傳票相關的信息請求。根據該審查,以及後續傳票中請求的文件性質,公司認爲調查將會沒有任何重大進展而得到解決;然而,無法保證其結果或未來的發展方向。
Cano Health, LLC
2023年7月7日,公司向Cano Health, LLC(「Cano」)發行了796萬股A類普通股,作爲6170萬美元的遞延薪酬的支付。該遞延薪酬與以下協議有關,公司可以選擇用現金或股票支付,並選擇用股票支付,其中(i)322萬5807股A類普通股作爲根據公司與Cano簽訂的那份於2022年9月30日生效並至今一直在生效的、經修訂的《Cano購買協議》中的某些索賠的遞延考慮而發行,(ii)473萬4194股A類普通股作爲根據公司與Cano簽訂的那份於2021年12月31日生效並至今一直在生效的、經修訂的《Cano索賠回收和轉讓協議》中的某些索賠的遞延考慮而發行。
2023年8月10日,公司在佛羅里達州邁阿密戴德縣第十一司法區巡迴法院對Cano進行起訴,請求宣告權利和對Cano協議(包括Cano CCRA、Cano購買協議和服務協議)的預期違約。同一天,Cano在同一法庭起訴公司,聲稱誘導欺詐、合同違約、侵權干涉和不正當得利,涉及Cano協議。公司有來自Cano的500萬美元應收賬款尚未結清;然而,由於Cano在2023年6月30日和9月30日結束的季度報告中,對Cano繼續作爲經營實體的能力存在重大疑慮,以及Cano在2024年2月4日根據美國破產法第11章自願申請申請救濟,公司在2023年爲該應收賬款餘額建立了準備金。這些事項因Cano的破產申請而自動暫停。截至2024年7月,債務人計劃已獲確認並生效。訴訟的自動暫停已被解除,各方預計持續訴訟將在根據新的排程命令重新開始。
2024年1月4日,Cano對Simply Healthcare Plans, Inc.(「Simply」)以及公司和相關實體提起訴訟,尋求判決聲明以判斷Cano購買協議是否應被撤銷,以及Cano或公司是否有權就根據Cano購買協議指派給公司的索賠向Simply索賠。Cano還要求賠償損失。
53
就簡而言之,涉及公司在卡諾購買協議下指定索賠。公司打算在所有與卡諾相關的訴訟中積極維護其立場。
項目1A風險因素。
我們認爲與我們業務、經營成果和財務控件相關的重要風險,並未有實質性變化,這些風險因素在截至2023年12月31日的年度報告10-K中已有披露(「2023年10-K表格」)。我們鼓勵潛在投資者考慮在我們2023年10-K表格中描述的風險,以及在本季度報告10-Q和我們2023年10-K表格中包含的管理層討論及財務狀況和經營成果分析,以及在我們向證券交易委員會提交的文件中公開披露的其他信息,在購買我們的證券之前。
