Beginning July 13, 2026, LM Funding’s common stock will trade on a split-adjusted basis.

Bruce M. Rodgers, Chairman and CEO of LM Funding, stated, "Our recently announced focused expansion into high-performance computing and AI infrastructure is a strategic transformation that we believe enables us to capitalize on our already developed and scalable facility assets. Our sites in Oklahoma and Mississippi provide a near-term foundation with a power capacity and footprint that we believe uniquely positions us to meet the rising demand for compute capabilities to power advanced AI infrastructures. The reverse stock split ensures we remain in compliance with Nasdaq listing standards and preserves the access to capital markets that our next phase of planned growth will require. We're confident this strategic direction aligns our assets with the significant demand in this sector and allows us to create real, lasting value for our shareholders."
