MSP Recovery, Inc. approved and implemented a 1-for-7 reverse stock split of its Class A and Class V common stock (with related Class-B/Up‑C units), effective at 11:59 p.m. on September 1, 2025. The Class A shares began trading on a split‑adjusted basis on Nasdaq on September 2, 2025.

The reverse split reduced Class A shares issued and outstanding from approximately 7.2 million to approximately 1.0 million, and reduced Up‑C Units (each tied to a Class V share) from approximately 3.3 million to approximately 0.5 million.

Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

To the extent required by Item 3.03 of Form 8-K, the information contained in Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

Effective at 11:59 P.M. on September 1, 2025 (the “Reverse Split Effective Time”), MSP Recovery, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) amended our Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation in the State of Delaware (the “Amendment”), which provides that every seven (7) shares of our issued and outstanding Class A Common Stock and Class V Common Stock (together with the Class-B Units) will automatically be combined into one issued and outstanding share of Class A Common Stock and Class V Common Stock (together with the Class-B Units), respectively, without any change in the par value per share (the “Reverse Stock Split”). On August 18, 2025, a majority of our stockholders approved a reverse stock split subject to the board of directors determining the final ratio. The Company’s Class A Common Stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) at the market open on September 2, 2025.

At the Reverse Stock Split Effective Time, every seven (7) issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Class V Common Stock (together with the Class-B Units) were converted automatically into one share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Class V Common Stock (together with the Class-B Units), respectively, without any change in the par value per share. The Reverse Stock Split reduced the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding from approximately 7.2 million to approximately 1.0 million, and the number of Up-C Units, which one share of Class V Common Stock forms a part, from approximately 3.3 million to approximately 0.5 million.

No fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share due to holding a number of shares not evenly divisible by the exchange ratio within the specified range had the number of new shares to which they were entitled rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares. No stockholders received cash in lieu of fractional shares.

The Reverse Stock Split affected all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholders’ percentage interest in the Company’s equity, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split would result in a stockholder owning a fractional share and such stockholder receives a whole share in lieu thereof. Proportional adjustments will be made to the terms of the Company’s MSPRW and MSPRZ warrants.

The Reverse Stock Split does not otherwise modify any rights or preferences of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, Class V Common Stock, or the Up-C Units. The Reverse Stock Split is intended to increase the market price per share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock to ensure the Company maintains compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2).

The trading symbol for the Company’s Class A Common Stock will remain “MSPR.” The new CUSIP number for the Company’s Class A Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split will be 553745-40-7.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by the Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.
