ABACUS GLOBAL MANAGEMENT, INC.
CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements (“Interim Financial Statements”) are presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States ("U.S.") Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and do not include all of the disclosures normally required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”) as contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, the Interim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (“2025 Annual Report”). Refer to Note 2 in the Company’s 2025 Annual Report for the full list of the Company’s significant accounting policies. The details in those notes have not changed, except as discussed in Note 2 to the Interim Financial Statements and as a result of normal adjustments in the interim periods. Capitalized terms used and not specifically defined herein have the same meanings given to those terms in our 2025 Annual Report. We also may use certain other terms that are defined within these Interim Financial Statements.
The Interim Financial Statements presented herein and discussed below include 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and cash flows of Abacus Global Management, Inc., (the “Company”) all entities in which the Company has a controlling voting interest (“subsidiaries”), and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary, as determined in accordance with consolidation accounting guidance. References in these Interim Financial Statements to net income or loss attributable to common stockholders and stockholders’ equity do not include noncontrolling interests, which represent the outside ownership of our consolidated non-wholly owned entity and are reported separately. Intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated entities have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Interim Financial Statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited annual financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, the results of our operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The Interim Financial Statements are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year, or any other period. All references to financial information in the Interim Financial Statements and in the condensed notes to Interim Financial Statements are unaudited.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, cost of revenue, life settlement policy valuation, goodwill and intangibles valuation, and income taxes. The uncertainties in the broader macroeconomic environment have made it more challenging to make these estimates. Actual results could differ from our estimates, and such differences may be material.
2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
New Accounting Standards—The Company’s management reviews recent accounting standards to determine the impact to the Company’s financial statements. There were no new accounting standard updates (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) in addition to those discussed in our 2025 Annual Report that would have an impact to the Interim Financial Statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
7
ASU 2025-05—”Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets”. In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05 to provide all entities with a practical expedient when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606. All entities may elect a practical expedient that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. The Company adopted ASU 2025-05 on a prospective basis effective January 1, 2026. The Company elected the practical expedient to estimate expected credit losses for current accounts receivables. The election of the practical expedient provided by this ASU did not have an impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
ASU 2025-11—”Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements.” In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 to clarify interim disclosure requirements. The objective of the amendments is to provide further clarity about the current interim disclosure requirements. This ASU is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU can be applied either using a prospective or a retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Concentrations—Two customers accounted for 13 % (related party) and 14 % (related party) in revenues related to sales of life insurance policies for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Three customers accounted for 13 %, 12 %, and 11 % of in revenues related to sales of life policies for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Liquidity—The first redemption date for LMA Income Series II, LP (“LMAIS II”), a limited partnership that is a variable interest entity in which the Company has invested was March 31, 2026 at which point the investors of that entity had the option to (i) redeem their investment, (ii) extend their investment for an additional year, or (iii) invest into an Abacus managed fund launched in March 2025. The next redemption date for LMAIS II will be June 30, 2027. As of March 31, 2026, the related remaining liabilities are included within long-term debt, at fair value within our consolidated balance sheet. Refer to Note 14, Long-Term Debt for additional information related to LMAIS II.
Reclassifications—Certain prior period amounts in these Interim Financial Statements and condensed notes have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and as of the year ended December 31, 2025.
3.BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
NIB Acquisition
On April 24, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of National Insurance Brokerage, LLC ("NIB"), a Delaware limited liability company (the “NIB Acquisition”). NIB was owned by Jay Jackson, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, who held a 25 % beneficial interest in NIB, and KMG Group Holdings, LLC ("KMG"), who held a 75 % beneficial interest in NIB (the "Sellers"). KMG is equally owned by Matthew Ganovsky, K. Scott Kirby, and Sean McNealy, Co-Founders and Presidents of the Company. The Company paid approximately $2.1 million in cash, net of cash acquired, to acquire 100 % of the interest in NIB.
The NIB Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), which requires the Company to record the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value as of the acquisition date. The values attributed to intangible assets were based on valuations prepared using Level 3 inputs and assumptions in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”).
8
Goodwill related to the NIB Acquisition was assigned to the Life Solutions reportable segment. It represents the value that we expect to obtain from growth opportunities from our combined operations and is deductible for tax purposes.
The Company finalized the valuations related to the acquired assets and liabilities of NIB on June 30, 2025. The following table presents the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in connection with the business combination.

AccuQuote Acquisition
On August 14, 2025 (“AccuQuote Acquisition Date”), the Company acquired 100 % of Life Distributors, LLC (“AccuQuote”), a Delaware limited liability company (“AccuQuote Acquisition”). AccuQuote is an insurance brokerage firm. The Company used its note receivable balance of approximately $9.3 million due from AccuQuote as consideration as result of the AccuQuote’s default on the note (non-cash consideration). The value of the note receivable balance on the AccuQuote Acquisition Date approximated fair value. The Company acquired approximately $0.3 million of cash and paid approximately $0.8 million in acquisition costs.
The Company evaluated whether the transaction should be accounted for as (i) a loan settlement within the scope of ASC 310-20-40-2 or (ii) a business combination within the scope of ASC 805. As part of the Company’s evaluation of AccuQuote, the April 2025 financing was structured to provide the Company with creditor protections and an enforceable mechanism to obtain control upon the occurrence of defined events of default. Because the Company obtained control of AccuQuote by exercising a contractual call right upon an event of default as defined in the note agreement and acquiring 100 % ownership, and because AccuQuote met the definition of a business (including inputs and processes capable of producing outputs), the Company concluded the transaction was a business combination under ASC 805. In addition, until the event of default and election to enforce remedies, AccuQuote remained independent and the Company held only creditor rights. Accordingly, the note receivable (including accrued amounts) was treated as consideration transferred in the acquisition rather than accounted for as a standalone loan settlement under ASC 310-20.
The Company assessed the note receivable prior to the acquisition date and concluded that no allowance for credit losses (ACL) was required and that the carrying amount approximated fair value on the acquisition date. In making these conclusions, the Company considered that (1) the note was secured by 100 % of AccuQuote’s assets, including its equity interests, and the Company’s contractual remedies provided a recovery mechanism, (2) the default was related to specified financial covenant and financial metric noncompliance rather than an inability to generate cash flows, and (3) the Company did not
9
identify indicators of material operational deterioration through the default date. The Company also considered that the note was originated approximately 4.5 months prior to the acquisition on negotiated terms, and the Company’s expected recovery under the note was supported by the secured structure and available remedies. The financing and related contractual remedies were designed to provide the Company with multiple paths to value realization—repayment under the note or, upon a defined event of default, the ability to obtain control through enforcement—consistent with the transaction’s economic substance. Therefore, the Company concluded that the note’s carrying value was approximately equal to its fair value at the time of acquisition.
The AccuQuote Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, which requires the Company to record the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value as of the acquisition date. The values attributed to intangible assets were based on valuations prepared using Level 3 inputs and assumptions in accordance with ASC 820.
Goodwill related to the AccuQuote Acquisition was assigned to the Life Solutions reportable segment. It represents the value that we expect to obtain from growth opportunities from our combined operations and is deductible for tax purposes.
The Company finalized the valuations related to the acquired assets and liabilities of AccuQuote, except for acquired receivables, accrued expenses, and other liabilities. Accordingly, these estimates are subject to change during the measurement period, which is up to one year from the AccuQuote Acquisition Date, as permitted under GAAP. Any potential adjustments could be material in relation to the values presented in the table below. No adjustments were made to the valuation for the period ended March 31, 2026.
The following table presents the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in connection with the business combination.

8.AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE SECURITIES, AT FAIR VALUE
Convertible Promissory Note—The Company holds investments in convertible promissory notes in two separate unrelated entities (“Convertible Promissory Notes”) for an initial investment of $1,000,000 each. The first note bore an annual interest rate of 8 % and matured on September 30, 2025. The unrelated entity that was due to repay the first convertible promissory note on September 30, 2025, stopped operations in August 2025. The Company does not believe that it will be able to recover its investment in this convertible note and related accrued interest, and has recorded an estimated 100 % credit loss as of December 31, 2025, and as of March 31, 2026, which includes the accrued interest. The second note bears an annual interest rate of 5 % and matures on October 15, 2028. During 2025, the Company acquired an additional interest in the second note of $2,000,000 , for a total principal investment of $3,000,000 .
The Company applies the available-for-sale method of accounting for its investments in the Convertible Promissory Notes, which are debt investments. The Convertible Promissory Notes do not qualify for either the held-to-maturity method due to the Convertible Promissory Notes’ conversion rights or the trading securities method because the Company holds the Convertible Promissory Notes as long-term investments. The Convertible Promissory Notes are measured at fair value at each reporting period-end. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, fair value was $3,147,609 and $3,108,750 , which includes accrued accumulated non-cash interest income of $393,184 and $354,325 , respectively.
There were no credit losses recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
The following tables provide a rollforward of the allowance for credit losses on available-for-sale securities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025:

9.OTHER INVESTMENTS AND OTHER ASSETS
Other Investments—The Company owns convertible preferred and common stock in three and four unrelated entities as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The value of the combined investment was $20,653,585 and $18,253,585 as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company impaired an investment by $3,050,000 in one equity investment. The Company received notification that the entity has begun the process to wind down the business due to a failed business sale. This impairment is recorded within Other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recorded a $5,400,000 unrealized gain on one equity investment. The entity had a new capital raise during the period, increasing the underlying value of the investment. This capital raise was considered an orderly transaction in the same equity class as the initial investment, representing the intrinsic value in this investee’s business. The unrealized gain is recorded within Other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company acquired $3,000,000 convertible preferred stock and $5,000,000 of common stock in two separate unrelated entity, respectively. The investment of $5,000,000 in common stock was purchased by the Company issuing series A convertible preferred stock. Refer to Note 15, Convertible Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Equity for further information.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company acquired $
The Company applies the measurement alternative for its investments in the common stock and convertible preferred stock because these investments are of an equity nature, and the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of entities even in the event of conversion of preferred stock. Under the measurement alternative, the Company records the investment based on original cost, less impairments, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the investee. The Company’s share of income or loss of such companies is not included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The Company tests its investments for impairment whenever circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the investment may not be recoverable.

11.SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company organizes its business into three reportable segments (1) Asset Management, (2) Life Solutions, and (3) Technology Services, which all generate revenue and incur expenses in different manners.
This segment structure reflects the financial information and reports used by the Company’s management, specifically its chief operating decision maker (CODM), to make decisions regarding the Company’s business, including resource allocations and performance assessments, as well as the current operating focus in compliance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”). The Company’s CODM is the President and Chief Executive Officer.
The Asset Management segment generates revenues by providing asset management services primarily to institutional investors alongside private clients investing in uncorrelated, and longevity-based assets, fixed-income replacement strategies and free cash flow based investment solutions. The revenue is determined by the asset management agreements with the individual investment vehicles. It also generates revenues by providing policy servicing activities to customers on a contract basis.
The Life Solutions segment generates revenues by buying, selling, and trading policies, and maintaining policies until receipt of death benefits. It also generates revenue by originating life insurance policy settlements between investors or buyers, and the sellers, who is often the original policy owner. The policies are purchased from owners or other providers through advisors, brokers, or directly through the owner.
The Technology Services segment generates revenues by providing real-time mortality verification, missing participant verification, and other services specific to the life insurance market services to customers on a contract basis.
The Company’s method for measuring profitability on a reportable segment basis is gross profit. The CODM does not review disaggregated assets by segment due to segment assets not being necessary for resource allocation decisions. The Company’s CODM periodically reviews cost of revenues by segment and treats it as a significant segment expense.

12.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings—Occasionally, the Company may be subject to various proceedings such as lawsuits, disputes, claims, or challenges to life insurance policy acquisitions. The Company assesses these proceedings as they arise and accrues a liability when losses are probable and reasonably estimable. Although legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable, the Company is currently not aware of any matters that, if determined adversely to the Company, would individually, or taken together, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Investment Acquisition—On March 12, 2026, the Company announced a $52.9 million acquisition of a minority position in Manning & Napier, an asset management and wealth advisory firm to further its strategic goals. This transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026 subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals.
13.FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:
•Level 1 inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.
•Level 2 inputs: Other than quoted prices in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
•Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
Recurring Fair Value Measurements—The assets and liabilities measured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis and their corresponding placement in the fair value hierarchy are presented in the tables below. The Company evaluates its estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and or other relevant assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from management’s estimates.

Life Settlement Policies— The Company accounts for owned life settlement policies using the fair value method or investment method (cost, plus premiums paid). The valuation method is chosen upon contract acquisition and is irrevocable.
The Company purchases policies from individuals or institutions, bundles those policies into tranches and sells to institutions, insurance carriers or funds that are attracting new investors. These initial purchases happen in the secondary market and the tertiary market. The secondary market is different from the principal or most advantageous market for purchasing policies and has less competition due to state-by-state licensing requirements. The Company leverages its broad policy base and extensive network, to offer individual policies that provide enhanced standalone value. This is achieved by precisely matching each policy’s risk profile to the specific needs of fund managers, institutions, insurance carriers, or funds as well as bundling secondary market originated policies with those originated in the tertiary market. This tailored approach attracts new investors by making it easier to identify and acquire policies that align with their investment objectives. This approach enhances realized gains because it increases market liquidity, broadens the investor base, and enables more efficient price discovery, which in turn supports higher policy values. Our historical realized gains on policies sold and matured, are materially consistent regardless of where policies are originated.
For policies carried at fair value, the valuation is based on Level 3 inputs that reflect our assumptions about what factors market participants would use in pricing the asset. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) with Monte Carlo simulation to determine the fair value of each policy. The Company’s model uses a discount rate based on observed transaction pricing which is assessed against historical realized gains. The valuation process uses significant assumptions, including survival probabilities and mortality assumptions informed by third-party life expectancy reports and a base mortality table (SOA 2015 VBT) adjusted via a mortality rating to match the risk-adjusted life expectancy, and market-calibrated discount rates.
The Monte Carlo simulation is applied to each policy to generate one million mortality scenario simulations which provides a comprehensive distribution of potential outcomes and calculates expected cash flows. In certain circumstances, if there is a verbal commitment to purchase a specific policy as of the balance sheet date, we use that transaction price as the fair value as we believe it is a more precise estimate of exit price than that determined using historical data. Further information about the inputs to the valuation are listed below:
•Risk-Based Discount Rate: Each policy's discount rate is determined based on its proprietary risk score (1-5 scale), with discount rates directly calibrated to observed transaction prices for policies in the same risk score category. Specifically, for each risk score category, the Company calculates the annualized internal rate of return ("IRR") implied by the relationship between modeled future cash flows (based on life expectancies) and the actual sales price observed in a dataset comprising over 1,000 executed policy transactions. These implied IRRs are aggregated on a weighted-average basis by risk score category to establish the discount rates applied in the Company's DCF/Monte Carlo valuation model. The dataset is updated periodically and adjusted for current market conditions
23
based on observed institutional demand and contemporaneous trade activity. This transaction-based approach ensures that discount rates reflect actual transaction pricing rather than theoretical market rates.
•Risk Score: Each policy is assigned a proprietary risk score from 1 to 5, with 5 being higher risk, based on multiple factors including insured age, life expectancy, life expectancy extension ratio, survival probability at breakeven, maturity probability, and risk-adjusted return on capital metrics.
•Life expectancy: Survival curves are generated using the Society of Actuaries 2015 VBT mortality tables adjusted by mortality ratings to achieve risk-adjusted life expectancies. For policies with multiple insureds, joint survival probabilities are calculated using statistical modeling techniques.
Related party considerations: To assess if related party sales are transacted at market terms, each policy is assessed against independent market checks, including indications from unaffiliated third parties, comparisons to third-party executed sales for policies with comparable characteristics (e.g.; Risk Score and Life Expectancy), and verifying that the terms and customary approval processes are consistent with those offered to non-related parties.
The Company performs quarterly lookback analysis to validate current valuations against actual market transactions. The quarterly lookback reviews policies sold and matured during the current quarter and compares sale prices to fair value measures as of the prior quarter. Discount rates are derived from observed transaction pricing and modeled cash flows, historical realized gains are used, if at all, as a reasonableness check rather than an adjustment factor.
Risk Metrics and Portfolio Analysis
Expected Tail Loss (“ETL99”): The Company calculates Expected Tail Loss at the 99th percentile, representing the weighted average of net present values in the worst 1% of simulated scenarios. This metric is used in conjunction with average net present value (“NPV”) to derive Risk-Adjusted Return on Capital (“RAROC”) ratios for individual policies and portfolio-level risk assessment.
Portfolio Diversification: When evaluating policies as part of a portfolio, the Company performs correlated analysis across all holdings, recognizing that combining policies with varying risk profiles can mitigate tail risk exposure while maintaining expected returns.
Data Sources: Valuations are fundamentally based on historical realized gains analysis from over one thousand policy transactions, representing actual transaction-based IRRs by risk category. Current market conditions are incorporated through ongoing discussions with investors such as institutional asset managers, credit unions, regional banks, and reinsurers, and proprietary risk modeling developed from the Company's transaction history.

Discount Rate Sensitivity—10 % was determined to be the weighted average discount rate used to estimate the fair value of policies held by the Company and its investment funds. If the discount rate increased or decreased by one percentage point and the other assumptions used to estimate fair value remained the same, the change in estimated fair value as of March 31, 2026, would be as follows:

Historical Realized Gains Sensitivity—While the weighted average discount rate can fluctuate based on the overall mix of policies included in the company's portfolio at any given time, the discount rates are determined using historical realized gains by risk category, which have a more consistent weighted average. As a result, we have supplementally added an additional sensitivity analysis for realized gains. The fair value of life settlement policies is sensitive to changes in key unobservable inputs used to estimate the fair value of policies held by the Company and its investment funds. The historical realized gains represents the total actual sales price of policies less their total cost basis divided by their total cost basis. The sensitivity analysis is intended to illustrate the potential increase or decrease if policies sold for
25
an average of 1% above or below their determined sale price. The fair market value of the Company’s policies would increase when historical realized gains on life insurance policies sold increases. If the historical realized gains increased or decreased by one percentage point and the other assumptions used to estimate fair value remained the same, the change in estimated fair value as of March 31, 2026, would be as follows:

Long-Term Debt—See Note 14, Long-Term Debt for additional information on the secured borrowing. The Company has elected the fair value option in accounting for the long-term debt. Fair value is determined using Level 3 inputs.
Available-for-Sale Investment—The convertible promissory notes are classified as an available-for-sale securities. Available-for-sale investments are subsequently measured at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses are excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income until realized. The Company determines fair value of its available-for-sale investments using unobservable inputs by considering the initial investment value, next round financing, and the likelihood of conversion or settlement based on the contractual terms in the agreement. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company evaluated the fair value of its Convertible Promissory Notes and determined that the fair value approximates the carrying value of $3,147,609 and $3,108,750 , respectively. Refer to Note 9, Other Investments and Other Assets for additional information.
Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements
Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements
Other Investments— These investments are recorded at cost under the ASC 321 measurement alternative and are adjusted for impairment and observable price changes. Impairment is assessed qualitatively. As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the Company determined that the carrying value of $20,653,585 and $18,253,585 , respectively. Refer to Note 9, Other Investments and Other Assets for additional information.
Financial Instruments Where Carrying Value Approximates Fair Value—The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, accounts receivable, related party, income tax receivables, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of their maturities.

Fixed Rate Senior Unsecured Notes
The Company issued fixed rate senior unsecured notes (“Fixed Unsecured Notes”) between 2023 and 2025. The Fixed Unsecured Notes are based on a fixed interest rate of 9.875 % to be paid in quarterly interest payments and mature on November 15, 2028. The Company has the option to redeem the Fixed Unsecured Notes in whole or in part at a price of 100 % of the outstanding principal balance on or after February 15, 2027. The notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Company and will rank equal in right of payment to all of the Company’s other senior unsecured indebtedness from time to time outstanding. As of March 31, 2026, the balance outstanding on the Fixed Unsecured Notes was $135,379,475 .
Senior Secured Credit Facility
On December 10, 2024 (the “Senior Secured Credit Facility Closing Date” or “SSCF Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Senior Secured Credit Facility” or “SSCF”), among the Company, as borrower, and affiliates of Sagard Senior Lending Partners Holdings II LP and Värde Partners, as lenders, and other persons from time to time party thereto (the “SSCF Lenders”), and GLAS USA LLC, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent for the SSCF Lenders thereunder. The SSCF provided credit extensions for (i) an initial term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000,000 upon the closing of the SSCF and (ii) optional delayed draw term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $50,000,000 that are available for 180 days after the SSCF Closing Date (“DDTL Facility”), subject to the requirement that on each delayed draw date, the proceeds are used for operations, including the purchase of life settlement policies, to support its overall business strategy, for working capital purposes, and for general corporate purposes, which may include funding previously announced and future acquisitions and repayment and refinancing of its indebtedness. The SSCF and any drawn amounts under the DDTL Facility mature on December 10, 2030, with quarterly amortization payments of (i) 1.00 % per annum of the aggregate principal amount of the initial facility outstanding as of the SSCF Closing Date and DDTL Facility to the extent borrowed and (ii) additional amortization payments based on the Company’s Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, in each case with the remaining outstanding principal amount due on the maturity date.
The interest rate is based an adjusted term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), which was calculated as term SOFR plus a fixed rate of 5.25 % per annum with a stepdown to 5.00 % if the Company achieves certain metrics related to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Total Leverage Ratios. In addition, undrawn amounts committed under the Delayed Draw Facility bear a commitment fee until such commitments are drawn or cancelled. The loan may be prepaid at any time in amounts of $1.0 million or greater, subject to a premium equal to 1.00 % of the amount prepaid if prepaid prior to the 12-month anniversary of funding.
The Company drew the full amount available in the DDTL facility in September 2025.
The SSCF contains customary covenants for financings of this type including financial maintenance and restrictive covenants, such as the aggregate asset value held at the loan parties to the sum of the outstanding principal amounts of the loans. The SSCF restricts the payment of dividends and distributions and the ability of the Company to make certain investments, incur certain indebtedness and liens and sell
29
assets, in each case subject to important exceptions. The SSCF also includes various financial covenants, each measured on a quarterly basis, including (A) a maximum Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the SSCF Credit Agreement), (B) a minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the SSCF Credit Agreement), and (C) a minimum Asset Coverage Ratio (as defined in the SSCF Credit Agreement). In addition, the SSCF Credit Agreement includes customary events of default, including failure to pay interest or principal in a timely manner, failure to comply with covenants, cross-defaults to other material indebtedness, certain bankruptcy related events and subject to certain threshold and notices requirements as set forth in the Credit Agreement. The Company is in compliance with its debt covenants as of March 31, 2026.
In connection with the SSCF, certain wholly owned and material subsidiaries of the Company issued a guaranty with respect to the obligations of the Company under the SSCF Credit Agreement and related documents (the “SSCF Credit Facility Guaranty”), which excludes the assets of LMA Income Series II, LP. Additionally, the Company and the guarantors party to the SSCF Credit Facility Guaranty entered into a security agreement (the “SSCF Credit Facility Security Agreement”), which secures the SSCF Credit Facility on primarily all assets of the Company and each guarantor on a first lien basis to the exclusion of certain Excluded Assets (as defined in the SSCF Credit Agreement), including the life insurance policies owned by the Company and each Guarantor.
LMA Income Series II, LP and LMA Income Series II, GP LLC Secured Borrowing
On January 31, 2023, LMA Income Series II, GP, LLC, wholly owned and controlled by that LMA Series, LLC (“LMA”), formed a limited partnership, LMA Income Series II, LP (“LMAIS II”), and subsequently issued partnership interests to limited partners in a private placement offering. The initial term of the offering was three years ending on March 31, 2026 with the ability to extend for two additional one-year periods ending on June 30, 2027 and on December 31, 2028. The limited partners receive annual dividends equal to the Preferred Return Amounts as follows: Capital commitment of less than $500,000 , 8.00 %; between $500,000 and $1,000,000 , 8.25 %; and over $1,000,000 , 8.50 %. Thereafter, 100 % of the excess are to be paid to the General Partner.
It was determined that LMA is the primary beneficiary of LMAIS II and thus has fully consolidated the limited partnership in its consolidated financial statements.
The private placement offerings proceeds are used to acquire and actively manage a large and diversified portfolio of financial assets. LMA, through its consolidated subsidiaries, serves as the portfolio manager for the financial asset portfolio, which includes investment sourcing and monitoring. In this role, LMA has the unilateral ability to acquire and dispose of any of the above investments. As the partnership does not represent a business in accordance with ASC 810 and is a consolidated subsidiary that only holds financial assets, this represents a transfer subject to ASC 860-10. As the financial assets are not transferred outside the consolidated group, the proceeds from the offering shall be classified as a liability unless it meets the definition of a participating interest and the derecognition criteria in ASC 860 are met. The transferred interest did not meet the definition of a participating interest as LMA possesses the unilateral ability to direct the sale of the financial assets (ASC 860-10-50-6A(d)). In accordance with ASC 860-30-25-2, as the transfer of the financial assets did not meet the definition of a participating interest, LMA recognizes the proceeds received from the offering as a secured borrowing.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, LMA Income Series II GP LLC, through the LMAIS II, admitted $744,367 and $16,189,871 additional limited partnership interests and redeemed $77,478,203 and $11,751,343 existing limited partnership interests, respectively.
LMA elected to account for the secured borrowing at fair value under the collateralized financing entity guidance within ASC 810-10-30. As of March 31, 2026, the fair value of the secured borrowing includes long-term debt ($38,156,705 ) and other liabilities ($302,161 ), respectively. LMAIS II is secured by its assets, which includes cash ($9,931,726 ), accounts receivable ($6,589,119 ), life settlement policies
30
($106,926,040 ), and other assets ($89,973 ) totaling $123,536,858 as of March 31, 2026. The asset coverage ratio is 3.24 x as of March 31, 2026.
Sponsor PIK Note
On June 30, 2023, in connection with the Merger Agreement, East Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sponsor”), made an unsecured loan to the Company in the aggregate amount of $10,471,648 (the “Sponsor PIK Note”) with an interest rate of 12.0 % per year compounding semi-annually. Accrued interest is payable in arrears quarterly starting on September 30, 2023 by adding it to the outstanding principal balance. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $4,070,225 and $3,642,551 in non-cash interest expense was added to the outstanding principal balance, respectively. The Sponsor PIK Note matures on June 30, 2028 and may be prepaid at any time in accordance with its terms without any premium or penalty. Non-cash Interest expense recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was $427,674 and $379,539 , respectively.

16.STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Long-term Incentive Plan
The Company awards restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to executives, employees, and directors as part of the Company’s Long-Term Equity Compensation Incentive Plan (“Long-term Incentive Plan” or “LTIP”). This plan provides that equity-based awards, including RSUs, performance stock units (“PSU”), stock options, and unrestricted shares of common stock, may be granted to officers, employees, and directors of the Company. The Company has granted RSUs that provide the right to receive, subject to service based vesting conditions, shares of common stock pursuant to the Long-term Incentive Plan. The expense associated with these awards will be based on the fair value of the stock as of the grant date, where the Company elected to use the straight line recognition over the vesting period, which is three years . Under the approved Long-term Incentive Plan, generally, each RSU entitles the unit holder to one share of common stock when the restriction expires. After satisfying the above vesting conditions, the participants will be fully entitled to their shares of common stock. Shares that are issued upon vesting are newly issued shares from the Long-term Incentive Plan and are not issued from treasury stock. Forfeitures are recorded as they occur and are made available for subsequent awards.
The following table shows a summary of the unvested restricted stock under the Long-Term Incentive Plan as of March 31, 2026 as well as activity during the year:

21. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share represents net income attributable to stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the reported period. Treasury stock is excluded from the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by giving effect to all potential weighted average dilutive common stock. For diluted earnings per share, the dilutive effect of outstanding awards is reflected by application of the treasury stock method and convertible securities by application of the if converted method, as applicable.
The table below illustrates the reconciliation of the earnings and number of shares used in our calculation of basic earnings per share attributable to common stockholders:

Asset management revenue increased by $686,067, or 8.8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase is mainly due to an increase in servicing revenue driven by increases in policies in LP Funds. The Company did not record significant performance fees during the three months ended March 31, 2026. Refer to the Assets Under Management section below for the change in total assets managed and refer to the Key Business Metrics below for the average management fees charged.

Total life solutions revenue increased by $14,268,631 or 39.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase is mainly due to an increase in the number of policies sold and realized gain recognized on policies sold. The higher sales generated $77,763,948 in total realized gains on sold life policies, partially offset by a decrease of $62,217,803 in total unrealized gains, and a decrease of $1,368,674 in total premiums paid.
The Company considers (i) independent market checks where available (including bids/indications from unaffiliated third parties and third-party investor interest in the same or similar policies), (ii) comparisons to contemporaneous third-party executed sales for policies with comparable characteristics (including Risk Score and other key attributes), and (iii) parity of key non-price terms and customary execution/approval processes to confirm the related-party transactions are consistent with those offered to non-related parties.
The realized and unrealized gain activity is mainly due to the Company’s expanded available capital in 2026 compared to early 2025 and deployment capacity following the launching of Abacus managed funds in March 2025 and the $50 million delayed draw financing in September 2025. The average realized gain per policy sold also improved, rising from 21.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to 26.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2026. This reflects increased institutional demand for life settlement policies as uncorrelated assets, creating more favorable pricing conditions for the Company’s portfolio trades. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company sold approximately 41% of the policies that were on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 and redeployed a majority of that capital to purchase additional policies. In the quarter ended March 31, 2026, the Company’s weighted average discount rate was 10%, which is based on risk score and is directly calibrated to observed transaction prices for policies in the same risk score category. Refer to Note 4, Revenues and Note 13, Fair Value Measurements for additional information on the composition of revenue from life insurance policies. The combination of realized gains (loss) (sale price less purchase price) less premiums paid on sold/matured policies during the corresponding period and the reversal of the prior period unrealized gain on sold/matured policies represents the incremental gain (loss) on policies held using the fair value method for the corresponding reporting period from sales or maturities to related and unrelated parties (maturity gains are part of unrelated revenues).
41
The decrease to origination revenue is primarily due to the Company originating policies for LMA and LMAIS II, rather than for third parties, and origination fees associated with LMA and LMAIS II are eliminated in consolidation.
The Company began generating insurance commissions revenue after April 2025 after acquiring NIB and AccuQuote in August 2025. Refer to Note 3, Business Combinations for additional information.

Cost of revenues (including stock-based compensation) decreased by $801,022, or 11.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in cost of revenues is primarily due to a decrease of $1,054,331 in origination commissions due to a decrease in amount of policies originated to subsidiaries eliminated in consolidation (refer to the Key Business Metrics section below for the the comparison of the number of policy originations to subsidiaries eliminated in consolidation), and $246,342 asset management retrocession fees mainly due to a decrease in the AUM of the ETF Funds (refer to the Results of Operations—Segment Results—Asset Management section below) partially offset by an increase of $368,541 related to compensation expenses due to increase in employees in connection with the Company’s 2025 business acquisitions.

Other income increased by $2,563,117 or 5,756.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.

See Note 9, Other Investments and Other Assets.
Interest expense increased by $835,262 or 8.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Business Metrics
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We monitor key business metrics and non-GAAP financial measures that assist us in evaluating our business, measuring our performance, identifying trends and making strategic decisions. We have presented the following non-GAAP measures, their most directly comparable GAAP measure, and key business metrics:
| Non-GAAP Measure | Comparable GAAP Measure | ||||
| Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS | Net Income attributable to common stockholders and EPS | ||||
| Adjusted EBITDA | Net Income | ||||
Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered substitutes for GAAP measures, net income (loss) (for Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin), net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (for Adjusted Net Income) or earnings (loss) per share (for Adjusted EPS), which are considered to be the most directly comparable GAAP measures. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing Company’s operating performance, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for net income (loss), net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, earnings (loss) per share or other consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) data prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted Net Income is presented for the purpose of calculating Adjusted EPS. The Company defines Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders adjusted for non-controlling interest income, amortization, change in fair value of warrants, business acquisition costs and special legal costs, and non-cash stock-based compensation and the related stock-based limitation tax effect before the estimated tax effect. The estimated tax effect to adjusted net income is based on the Company’s U.S. based federal and state statutory tax rates. We believe that Adjusted Net Income provides an additional measure of operating performance that eliminates the impact of expenses that do not relate to business performance.
47
Adjusted EPS measures our per share earnings and is calculated as Adjusted Net Income divided by adjusted weighted-average shares outstanding. We believe that Adjusted EPS may be useful to investors because it enables them to better evaluate per share operating performance across reporting periods by eliminating the impact of expenses that do not relate to the Company’s business performance.

Note: Totals may not add up due to rounding.
The change in adjusted net Income was primarily a result of the factors described in connection with operating revenues and operating expenses and the items listed above.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Adjusted EBITDA is net income adjusted for depreciation expense, amortization, interest expense, income tax, business acquisition costs and special legal costs, non-cash expenses, and certain other items that in our judgment significantly impact the period-over-period assessment of performance and operating results that do not directly relate to business performance within the Company's control. These items
48
may include payments made as part of the Company's expense support commitment, change in fair value of debt, change in fair value of warrant liability, S&P 500 options that were entered into as an economic hedge related to the debt (described as the realized and unrealized gain on equity securities, at fair value), non-cash stock based compensation, and other items. Adjusted EBITDA should not be determined as substitution for net income (loss), cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities, operating income (loss), or other metrics prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA assists investors in understanding the Company’s ongoing operating performance by presenting comparable financial results between periods. We believe that by removing the impact of depreciation and amortization and excluding certain non-cash charges, amounts spent on interest and taxes, and certain other charges that are variable from year to year. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides our investors with performance measures that reflect the impact to operations from trends in changes in revenue, policy values, and operating expenses that provides a perspective not immediately apparent from net income (loss) and operating income (loss). Adjusted EBITDA excludes items which we believe may cause short-term fluctuations in net income (loss) and operating income (loss) which we do not consider to be the primary drivers of the Company’s business.

Key Business Metrics
We monitor the following key business metrics:
•Revenue generated from life policies: (i) policies sold, matured, and bought, (ii) realized gains, (iii) revenues from maturities, (iv) net death benefit value of policies held, (v) turnover ratio, and (vi)
49
holding period. The number of policies sold and purchased helps us measure the level of trading activity for the period that leads to realized and unrealized gains, respectively. Realized gains on sold policies and revenues from maturities is used to measure our profit optimization. The net death benefit of policies represents the maximum potential maturity revenue realization on policies held. The turnover ratio measures our capital efficiency with a higher number generally correlating to growth in realized gains. The holding period is based on the weighted average age of life settlement policies, which tracks our ability to make hold or trade decisions that enhance realized gains.
•Asset management revenue: (i) assets under management also referred to as the net asset value of funds (“AUM” or “NAV”). AUM drives management fees and performance fees generated by the Company.
•Servicing revenue: (i) number of policies serviced, (ii) face value of policies serviced, and (iii) total invested dollars. Servicing revenue involves the provision of services for maintaining the policy, managing processing of claims in the event of death of the insured, and ensuring timely payment of optimized premiums computed to derive maximum return on maturity of the policy. The number of policies and the face value of policies serviced represents the volume and dollar face value of policies over which the above services are performed. Total invested dollars represent the acquisition cost plus premiums paid for serviced policies and is used to determine servicing fees.
•Origination revenue: Origination revenues represent fees negotiated for each purchase and sale of a policy with an investor. The number of policy originations (i) represents the volume of policies over which the above origination services are performed. The number of policy originations directly correlates with origination revenues allowing management to evaluate fees earned upon each transaction.

[1] - 2026 includes 8 policies and 2025 includes 6 policies within the rescission period that are recorded in contract liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balances sheets. Refer to Note 4, Revenue for additional information.
[2] - The Company will report the turnover ratio and holding periods on a prospective basis.
[3] - The weighted average realized gain percentage on policies sold is not annualized and can vary materially from an annualized return depending on the holding period. Two transactions with the same realized gain percentage may reflect materially different annualized returns due to differences in time held.
Note: Realized gains represent the difference between the sale price of life insurance policies or the net death benefit of matured life insurance policies, net of the original cost of the corresponding life settlement policy plus related lifetime continuing costs (e.g., premium costs) (together all costs associated with life insurance policies are “Lifetime Carrying Costs”). The average realized gain on policies sold represents realized gains as a percentage of related Lifetime Carrying Costs of sold life insurance policies. Sales to related parties resulted in average realized gains of 26.4% (ranging from 22% to 41%) compared to average realized gains of 10% from sales to external parties ranging from (3% to 40%) during the three months ended March 31, 2026. There were no significant differences in the weighted average realized gains from life settlement policies sold to external- versus related-parties for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Refer to Note 19, Related-Party Transactions for additional information.
The increase in total lifetime realized gains is mainly due to the increase in total policies sold compared to the same period in 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company finances its operations primarily through cash generated from operations and net proceeds from debt or equity financing. The Company actively manages its working capital and the associated cash requirements when servicing and originating policies while also effectively utilizing cash and other sources of liquidity to purchase additional life settlement policies. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our principal source of liquidity was cash and cash equivalents totaling $37,209,747 and $38,112,332, respectively.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our revenue growth rate. The Company. may, in the future, enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, products, and technologies. The Company may seek additional equity or debt financing.
Refer to Note 15, Convertible Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Equity for information on our share repurchase plans.
We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents as well as cash generated from operations will be sufficient to support our operating and debt service needs for the 12 months following the filing of this Yearly Report on Form 10-K.
