LifeWallet Receives Nasdaq Notification of Non-Compliance with Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) and Advises that Restatement Pertains to Non-Cash Adjustments as it Works to File its Form 10-K
April 24 2023 - 6:45AM
MSP Recovery, Inc. d/b/a LifeWallet (NASDAQ: LIFW) (“LifeWallet” or
“LIFW” or the “Company”), received a notification letter on April
18, 2023 from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq
Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating the Company was not in
compliance with the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1)
as a result of not having timely filed its Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form
10-K”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Under the Nasdaq rules, the Company has 60
calendar days, or until June 20, 2023, to file the 2022 Form 10-K
or to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance with the Nasdaq
Listing Rule. This notification has no immediate effect on the
listing of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq. However, if the
Company fails to timely regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule
5250(c)(1), the Company’s common stock will be subject to delisting
from Nasdaq. This announcement is made in compliance with Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt
of a deficiency notification.
As previously disclosed, the Company is
determined to restate its financial statements for the periods
ended June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2022. Such restatements will
be included in the 2022 Form 10-K, which the Company continues to
work diligently to file as soon as possible. Such restatements
relate to the reassessment of complex accounting matters based on
non-cash adjustments and do not change the Company's strategy,
daily operations, or mission to disrupt the antiquated healthcare
reimbursement system with data-driven solutions for consumers and
industries. The restatements do not affect the Company's cash
position, nor do they reflect any financial distress.
In addition, the Company has protocols in place
for continued operations, including expected cash flows from
recoveries as well as the previously announced equity purchase
agreement, entered into on January 6, 2023, with a fund managed by
Yorkville Advisors Global, LP, subject to the conditions set forth
therein.
Despite the current economic downturn affecting
U.S. businesses, LifeWallet is confident in its financial future
with advancements in blockchain technology that are expected to
provide real-time revenue solutions, as well as ongoing recovery
efforts that seek reimbursements on behalf of LifeWallet’s Medicare
and Medicaid clients, from responsible parties. A substantial
volume of cases are being litigated. As is the norm in the judicial
system, revenue is reported once cases reach a settlement or
judgment, and LifeWallet continues to strive towards positive
outcomes for its healthcare clients and investors.
