Funding America, Inc. received an amended Schedule 13G from Hexstone Capital LLC and Brendan O’Neil reporting their current stake in the company’s common stock. The filing shows beneficial ownership of 726,464 shares, made up of 200,000 shares held and 526,464 shares issuable upon exercise of common stock purchase warrants.
This position represents 4.9% of the common stock, calculated against 14,031,948 shares outstanding as of December 19, 2025, after Funding America’s referenced offering. The warrants are subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation, which restricts further exercises that would push ownership above that threshold. The amendment states that each reporting person has now ceased to be a beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class, making this an exit filing, and certifies that the securities are not held to change or influence control of the company.

Item 4.
Ownership
(a)
Amount beneficially owned:
The purpose of this Amendment No. 1 is to amend and supplement the Schedule 13G in order to update the beneficial ownership information on the cover pages and in Item 4 in the Schedule 13G, including to indicate that each of the Reporting Persons has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and to amend Item 5 of the Schedule 13G accordingly. This Amendment No. 1 constitutes an exit filing for each of the Reporting Persons. The information required by this item with respect to each Reporting Person is set forth in Rows 5 through 9 and 11 of the cover pages to this Amendment No. 1 and is incorporated herein by reference for each such Reporting Person.
The share amounts and ownership percentages reported are based on 14,031,948 shares of Common Stock outstanding after giving effect to the Offering disclosed in the Prospectus Supplement, assuming no exercise of any of the issuer's warrants issued in connection with the Offering. Hexstone holds (i) 200,000 shares of Common Stock and (ii) Warrants that are now exercisable for up to 1,919,404 shares of Common Stock following the issuer obtaining stockholder approval for their exercise and an increase in the number of shares issuable thereunder upon such stockholder approval, of which 1,392,940 shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise are not deemed beneficially owned by Hexstone as a result of the triggering of the Blocker in the Warrants, which prohibits Hexstone from exercising the Warrants for shares of Common Stock if, as a result of such exercise, the holder thereof, together with its affiliates and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the total number of Ordinary Shares then issued and outstanding immediately after giving effect to any such exercise.
Consequently, Hexstone is the beneficial owner of 726,464 shares of Common Stock (the "Shares"). Hexstone has the power to dispose of and the power to vote the Shares beneficially owned by it, which power may be exercised by its managing member, Mr. O'Neil. Mr. O'Neil does not directly own the Shares. By reason of the provisions of Rule 13d-3 of the Act, Mr. O'Neil may be deemed to beneficially own the Shares which are beneficially owned by Hexstone.

Comments accompanying signature: LIST OF EXHIBITS Exhibit No. 1 - Joint Filing Agreement, dated August 20, 2025 (incorporated by reference to Exhibit 1 to the Schedule 13G filed by the Reporting Persons with the SEC on August 20, 2025).
What stake in Funding America (LMFA) does Hexstone Capital report?
Hexstone Capital reports beneficial ownership of 726,464 Funding America shares, equal to 4.9% of the common stock. This includes 200,000 shares held and 526,464 shares issuable from warrants, calculated against 14,031,948 shares outstanding after a disclosed offering.
Who are the reporting persons in this Funding America Schedule 13G/A?
The reporting persons are Hexstone Capital LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, and Brendan O’Neil, a U.S. citizen. They filed jointly and report shared voting and dispositive power over 726,464 Funding America common shares through Hexstone’s holdings and related warrants.
Why is this Funding America (LMFA) Schedule 13G/A labeled an exit filing?
It is an exit filing because each reporting person states they have ceased to be beneficial owners of more than five percent of Funding America’s common stock. Their reported 4.9% stake falls below the five percent threshold that triggers more extensive ownership reporting requirements.
How are warrants treated in Hexstone’s Funding America ownership calculation?
Hexstone holds warrants now exercisable for up to 1,919,404 Funding America shares, but a 4.99% ownership limitation applies. Only 526,464 warrant shares are counted as beneficially owned; 1,392,940 additional warrant shares are excluded because exercising them would breach the 4.99% cap.
On what share count is Hexstone’s 4.9% Funding America stake based?
The 4.9% ownership figure is based on 14,031,948 Funding America common shares outstanding as of December 19, 2025. That share count reflects the company’s offering described in a prospectus supplement, assuming no exercise of warrants issued in connection with that offering.
Does Hexstone seek control of Funding America (LMFA) according to this filing?
The filing states the securities were not acquired and are not held for the purpose of changing or influencing control of Funding America. It also certifies they are not held in connection with any transaction intended to change control, other than limited nomination activities referenced under regulatory provisions.
