LM Funding America (LMFA) Announces 1:6 Reverse Share Split

LM Funding America, Inc. (NASDAQ: LMFA) today announced a 1-for-6 reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock, effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern time on March 12, 2024. Beginning March 12, 2024, LM Funding’s common stock will trade on a split-adjusted basis.

Bruce M. Rodgers, Chairman and CEO of LM Funding, stated, "We believe that our business fundamentals are currently strong and that we continue to make good progress, as evidenced by our 1700% year-over-year revenue growth in the third quarter of 2023. Notably, as previously reported, the stockholders’ equity of LM Funding was $35.9 million, or $2.45 per share (or $14.70 per share after giving effect to the reverse split announced today), as of September 30, 2023, and yet our current share price remains below the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement of $1.00. We believe this share consolidation will not only ensure we meet the continued listing requirements, but also help us to attract a broader universe of investors, including institutional investors and retail brokers that encounter share price restrictions. Importantly, the pro-rata ownership of each shareholder will remain unchanged as a result of the reverse split, and we believe this share consolidation will tighten our public float and enhance our capital structure as we continue to execute on our business model.”

At LM Funding’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) held on November 9, 2023, the Company’s shareholders approved a proposal to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio within the range of one-for-two (1:2) to one-for-ten (1:10), as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. On February 23, 2024, the Board of Directors adopted a resolution approving and authorizing a 1-for-6 reverse split, and on March 7, 2024, LM Funding filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to effect the reverse stock split effective as of March 12, 2024. There will be no change to the total number of authorized shares of LM Funding Common Stock as set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended.

LM Funding’s shares of common stock will continue to trade on the NASDAQ under the symbol “LMFA.” The new CUSIP number for the Company’s common stock post reverse stock split is 502074503.

Upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, every 6 shares of LM Funding’s issued and outstanding common stock will automatically be converted into one share of common stock.
