“During the third quarter, we expanded our portfolio of recoverable claims and added to our potential revenue streams while significantly reducing our debt,” said MSP Recovery Founder and CEO, John H. Ruiz. “This is all further proof of the growing recognition in the healthcare, healthcare data and legal community of MSPR’s unique value proposition.”

“Some of our most exciting new potential revenue opportunities come thanks to the astounding early success of LifeWallet, which we launched less than a year ago,” added Mr. Ruiz. “LifeWallet is a powerful and effective tool for both patients and healthcare providers alike. Thanks to our expanded partnership with Tokenology, LifeWallet’s LifeChain will connect providers and payers to tokenized medical claims, which is expected to transform standard medical claim forms into unique digital versions on blockchain (NFTs or non-fungible tokens).”

“We continue to build on what we believe is an insurmountable head start when it comes to creating and deploying advanced technology tools alongside industry-leading legal acumen to prevent waste, inefficiency, and fraud from the healthcare claims process,” said Co-Founder and Chief Legal Officer, Frank C. Quesada.  “We have seen a large number of healthcare solutions and are confident that our unique technology continues to disrupt the healthcare system as it relates to data ingestion as well as patient efficiencies and proper payments.”

Third Quarter 2022 Key Metrics

Since announcing the business combination with Lionheart Acquisition Corporation II, our portfolio has continued to grow. Below is detail on the increase in our portfolio since the announcement:

As of September 30, 2022, MSPR had the following developments:

• Total Paid Amount of owned claims has increased to $373.3 billion, as of September 30, 2022, up 2% from $364.4 billion as of December 31, 2021 and up 456% from $67.2 billion from September 30, 2021.

• Paid Value of Potential Recoverable Claims grew to $89.2 billion, as of September 30, 2022, up 3% from $86.6 billion as of December 31, 2021 and up 485% from $15.2 billion from September 30, 2021.

• Currently in data matching or settlement discussions with 27.9% of the auto insurance market.

• We have expanded our work with Tokenology on tokenized healthcare initiative on the Polygon network. This initiative, combined with LifeWallet’s biometric technology targets fraud and abuse in the U.S. healthcare system.

Portfolio Growth:

MSPR seeks assignment of recovery rights from secondary payers and providers by acquiring such rights to claims via Claims Cost Recovery Agreements (“CCRA”). The Company utilizes its proprietary internal data analytics platform to review claims and identify which have probable recovery paths. MSPR’s assets are irrevocable assignments of health claims recovery rights that are inherent, all-encompassing and superior to other interests supported by Federal and State laws and regulations. The table below outlines the Company's growth in data received in the most recent periods. The amounts represent data received from current and new assignors:

Demand Letters:

MSPR recently announced a strategy whereby the Company is sending out individual demand letters on identified recoverable claims to responsible payers for prompt payment. We expect this strategy to result in more predictable and visible revenues. The table below outlines specific dollar amounts identified by the Company, broken down by litigation and demand letter type, that it plans to pursue against different responsible parties:

^{(1) Data Matching represents potential recovery opportunities the Company has identified via court orders or agreements with primary payers. These represent potential recoveries that MSP could receive from a portion of our settlement discussions with 27.9% of Auto Insurance industry or via demand letters.}

^{(2) As previously announced June 13th and 27th 2022, MSP initiated billing amounts to primary payers (i.e., property and casualty insurers) and big pharma, giving these parties the opportunity to pay without the need for litigation or extended litigation.}

^{(3) PLRPs are established to resolve health care liens asserted by private health insurance providers in mass tort settlements. MSPR is actively working with various lien resolution administrators to recover on those owned claims for which manufacturers have already settled other lawsuits and established PLRPs.}

Financial Outlook

MSP Recovery is providing guidance for its full year 2022 as follows:

• Portfolio 2022 Guidance: Exceeded target for 2022 for growth in PVPRC by 3.5 times.

• 2022 Recoveries Guidance: We previously provided guidance with respect to Total Gross Recoveries, which we expected to be approximately $992 million during 2022.⁽¹⁾.  While we still anticipate that the amount of those Total Gross Recoveries will be achieved, due to various factors, including, but not limited to litigation delays, we now believe that we will achieve a substantial portion of these Total Gross Recoveries during 2023. The guidance provided was and is an estimate based on management’s current knowledge and various assumptions. The nature of the Company’s business, and the timing and amount of Total Gross Recoveries that will be achieved, are inherently unpredictable, and the Company cannot provide assurances regarding the timing or amount of Total Gross Recoveries that will ultimately be achieved.

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, this press release also contains Non-GAAP financial measures. We consider "Net loss excluding non-cash and one-time expenses" and "Operating loss excluding non-cash or one-time items" as non-GAAP financial measures and important indicators of performance and useful metrics for management and investors to evaluate our business's ongoing operating performance on a consistent basis across reporting periods. Net loss excluding non-cash and one-time expenses represents Net loss adjusted for certain non-cash and non-recurring expenses, and Operating loss excluding non-cash or one-time items represents Operating loss adjusted for certain non-cash and non-recurring expenses. These measures provide useful information to investors, and a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and other information relating to these Non-GAAP measures will be included in Management's Discussion and Analysis in the Form 10-Q.
