MSP Recovery Announces Fiscal Year And Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Results

| Paid Amount | $ | 380.4 | $ | 369.8 | $ | 374.8 | |||||

| Recovery Multiple(1) | 0.08 | N/A | N/A | ||||||||
| Penetration Status of Portfolio | 86.8 | % | 86.8 | % | 85.8 | % | |||||
(1) During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company received gross recoveries of $18.1 million, of which the Recovery Multiple for recoveries obtained pursuant to the MSP Laws was 1.32 times the Paid Amount, and the Recovery Multiple for recoveries obtained pursuant to non-MSP Laws, including antitrust and unfair trade practice laws, was 0.04 times the Paid Amount. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, recoveries were not meaningful, and so no multiple is provided.
(2) On August 10, 2022, the United States Court of Appeals, Eleventh Circuit held that a four-year statute of limitations period applies to certain claims brought under the Medicare Secondary Payer Act's private cause of action, and that the limitations period begins to run on the date that the cause of action accrued. This opinion may render certain Claims held by the Company unrecoverable and may substantially reduce PVPRC and BVPRC as calculated. As our cases were filed at different times and in various jurisdictions, and prior to data matching with a defendant we are not able to accurately calculate the entirety of damages specific to a given defendant, we cannot calculate with certainty the impact of this ruling at this time. However, the Company has deployed several legal strategies (including but not limited to seeking to amend existing lawsuits in a manner that could allow claims to relate back to the filing date as well as asserting tolling arguments based on theories of fraudulent concealment) that would apply to tolling the applicable limitations period and minimizing any material effect on the overall collectability of its claim rights. In addition, the Eleventh Circuit decision applies only to district courts in the Eleventh Circuit. Many courts in other jurisdictions have applied other statutes of limitations to the private cause of action, including borrowing the three-year statute of limitations applicable to the government's cause of action; and borrowing from the False Claims Act's six-year period. The most recent decision on the issue from the District Court of Massachusetts, for example, applies the same statute of limitations as Eleventh Circuit, but expressly disagrees with the Eleventh Circuit's application of the“accrual” rule and instead adopted the notice-based trigger that the company has always argued should apply. This would mean that the limitations period for unreported claims has not even begun to accrue. This is a complex legal issue that will continue to evolve in jurisdictions across the country. Nevertheless, if the application of the statute of limitations as determined by the Eleventh Circuit was applied to all Claims assigned to us, we estimate that the effect would be a reduction of PVPRC by approximately $9.8 billion. As set forth in our Risk Factors, PVPRC is based on a variety of factors. As such, this estimate is subject to change based on the variety of legal claims being litigated and statute of limitations tolling theories that apply.
- Total Paid Amount of owned claims has increased to $380.4 billion, as of December 31, 2024, up $10.6 billion or 2.9% from $369.8 billion as of December 31, 2023. This figure represents the amounts our clients/assignors have paid for in medical bills (including capitation payments). Paid Value of Potential Recoverable Claims has decreased to $87.7 billion, as of December 31, 2024, down $1.2 billion or 1.3% from $88.9 billion as of December 31, 2023. This figure represents the amounts the Company estimates are potentially recoverable as identified by its algorithms.
Financial Outlook
Recoveries Guidance : The Company continues to make progress in its recovery efforts, and management believes such projected recoveries are ultimately collectible. Recoveries are dependent on the completion of litigation and the negotiation of settlements, which are inherently uncertain and are subject to risk of delay and litigation outcomes. As a result, the Company will not provide future guidance on recoveries that are dependent on litigation or subrogation process.
Additional information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this release, including an explanation of these measures and how each is calculated, is included below under the heading“Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures has also been provided in the financial tables accompanying this release.
Liquidity Outlook and Going Concern Assessment : The Company has concluded that, as of the date of this filing, substantial doubt exists regarding our ability to continue as a going concern within one year following the issuance of these consolidated financial statements.
The Company's liquidity will depend on the ability to generate substantial Claims recovery income and Claims recovery services income in the near future, the timing of which is uncertain, as well as its ability to secure funding from capital sources. The Company's principal liquidity needs have been working capital, debt service, and Claims financing obligations.
The Company anticipates sources of liquidity to include the Working Capital Credit Facility, the Yorkville SEPA, and beyond July 2025, the MSP Principals' commitment to pledge $25 million of collateral to backstop additional working capital requirements of the Company, as disclosed in more detail in Note 9, Claims Financing Obligations and Notes Payable, and has taken several actions to address liquidity concerns. More information can be found in Part II, Item 7 of the Annual Report.
Impairment of Definite-Lived Intangible Assets: The Company's estimation of the fair value of its CCRA intangible assets resulted in a non-cash impairment charge amounting to $752.7 million recorded during the fourth quarter of 2024 in Impairment of Intangible Assets in the statement of operations. For additional information, see Note 6, Intangible Assets, Net, to our Consolidated Financial Statements and Part II, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Estimates – Impairment of Intangible Assets.

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, this Annual Report also contains non-GAAP financial measures. We consider“adjusted net loss” and“adjusted operating loss” as non-GAAP financial measures and important indicators of performance and useful metrics for management and investors to evaluate the Company's ongoing operating performance on a consistent basis across reporting periods. We believe these measures provide useful information to investors. Adjusted net loss represents net loss adjusted for certain non-cash and non-recurring expenses and adjusted operating loss items represent operating loss adjusted for certain non-cash and non-recurring expenses. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most relevant GAAP measure is included in Management's Discussion and Analysis in the Annual Report Filed on Form 10-K.
