PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

BRC Group Holdings, Inc.
2,745,979 Shares of Common Stock Issuable Upon Exercise of Outstanding Warrants
This prospectus relates to the resale from time to time, by the selling securityholders identified in this prospectus under the caption “Selling Securityholders,” of up to 2,745,979 shares of our common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), they may acquire upon the exercise of outstanding warrants, which we refer to collectively as the “Warrants.” We issued the Warrants to the selling securityholders as follows:
• warrants to purchase approximately 1,832,287 shares of Common Stock with an initial exercise price of $5.14, subject to adjustment, issued in connection with the Company’s Credit Agreement, dated as of February 26, 2025 by and between the Company, BR Financial Holdings, LLC, the lenders party thereto and Oaktree Fund Administration, LLC, as administrative agent and as collateral agent (the “Credit Agreement Warrants”); and
• warrants to purchase approximately 913,692 shares of Common Stock with an exercise price of $10.00 issued in connection with four private exchange transactions (the “Notes Warrants”).
The selling securityholders may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their Common Stock or interests in their Common Stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the Common Stock is traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. See “Plan of Distribution” in this prospectus for more information. We will not receive any proceeds from the resale or other disposition of the Common Stock by the selling securityholders. However, we will receive the proceeds of any cash exercise of the Warrants. See “Use of Proceeds” beginning on page 5 and “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 11 of this prospectus for more information.
Our Common Stock is currently traded on the NASDAQ Global Market (“NASDAQ”) under the symbol “RILY”. On April 9, 2026, the last reported sales price of our Common Stock as quoted on NASDAQ was $7.52 per share.
We are a “smaller reporting company” under the federal securities laws and will be subject to reduced disclosure and public reporting requirements.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains “forward-looking statements.” These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of the Company. Generally, forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future actions, events or results of operation of the Company. Words such as “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “plans,” “continues,” “believes,” “may,” “will,” “goals” or variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify our forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements, beliefs and expectations regarding the offering described in this prospectus, or the exchange offer, and our business strategies, market potential, future financial performance, dividends, costs to be incurred in connection with the exchange offer, results of pending legal matters, our goodwill and other intangible assets, price volatility and cost environment, our liquidity, our funding sources, expected pension contributions, capital expenditures and funding, our financial covenants, repayments of debt, off-balance sheet arrangements and contractual obligations, our accounting policies, general views about future operating results and other events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of important factors, including those factors discussed in detail under “Risk Factors” in this prospectus, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated in any such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to:
• volatility in our revenues and results of operations;
• events and developments related to our prior investment in VCM Holdings, LLC (“Freedom VCM”) and our prior business relationship with Brian Kahn and related to the SEC subpoenas the Company and Bryant Riley has received;
• exposure to legal liability that can lead to substantial damages;
• losses as a result of ineffective risk management processes and strategies;
• our ability to meet future capital requirements, enhance our services, take advantage of business opportunities and respond to competitive pressures;
• the level of our indebtedness;
• losses if our reputation is harmed;
• failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
• failure to enter new lines of business, make strategic investments or acquisitions or enter into joint ventures;
• short-term nature of our engagements;
• net capital and regulatory capital requirements;
• making investments in relatively high-risk, illiquid assets;
• exposure to credit risk from a variety of our activities, including loans, lines of credit, guarantees and backstop commitments;
• write downs of our investments and other losses related to the valuation of our investments and volatile and illiquid market conditions;
• loss of key personnel;
• significant disruptions of information technology systems, breaches of data security or unauthorized disclosures of sensitive data or personally identifiable information;
• our inability to pay dividends with respect to shares of our preferred stock and common stock;
• the unsecured and subordinated nature of our publicly traded senior notes;
• limited protection for holders of our publicly traded senior notes;
iii
• ability to issue additional equity and notes; and
• changes in trade policy and regulations.
Because forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Undue reliance should not be placed on such statements, which speak only as of the date of this prospectus or the date of any document that may be incorporated by reference into this document.
Consequently, readers of this prospectus should consider these forward-looking statements only as the Company’s current plans, estimates and beliefs. The Company does not undertake and specifically declines any obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to such forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect future events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.
We disclaim and do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement in this prospectus, except as required by applicable law or regulation.

This summary highlights certain information about us, this offering, and selected information contained in this prospectus. This summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information that you should consider before deciding whether to invest in our Common Stock. For a more complete understanding of the Company and this offering, we encourage you to read and consider the more detailed information in this prospectus, including “Risk Factors” and the financial statements and related notes. Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to BRC Group Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and its subsidiaries.
Business Overview
BRC Group Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: RILY) (the “Company” or “BRCGH”), which changed its name from B. Riley Financial, Inc. effective January 1, 2026, is a diversified holding company offering a platform of businesses, including financial services (with complementary banking and wealth management businesses), telecom, retail, and investments in equity, debt and venture capital. We refer to BRCGH as having a “platform” because of the unique composition of our financial services businesses and diversification of its operations. Our core financial services platform provides small cap and middle market companies customized end-to-end solutions at every stage of the enterprise life cycle. Our complementary banking business offers comprehensive services in capital markets, sales, trading, research, merchant banking, M&A, and restructuring. Our complementary wealth management business offers wealth management and financial planning services including brokerage, investment management, insurance, and tax preparation. Our telecom businesses provide consumer and business services including traditional, mobile and cloud phone, internet and data, security, and email. Our consumer products and retail companies provide mobile computing accessories and home furnishings. BRCGH, through its investment business, deploys its capital inside and outside its core financial services business to generate shareholder value through opportunistic investments.
The Company opportunistically invests in and acquires companies or assets with attractive risk-adjusted return, with a focus on making operational improvements within these companies in an effort to maximize free cash flow.
In addition to efforts to grow BRC’s businesses, starting in 2024 and continuing through 2025, we have been focused on reducing indebtedness, including through operating cash flow, normal course realization of investments, the net proceeds from a number of strategic asset dispositions or other monetization transactions as described below under “Disposition and Monetization Transactions.” The Company has reduced its total outstanding indebtedness from $1.8 billion at December 31, 2024 to $1.4 billion at December 31, 2025. The Company anticipates that reduction of indebtedness, including potentially through additional asset disposition or monetization transactions, will remain a key priority for the foreseeable future.
BRC was founded in 1997 by our Co-Chief Executive Officers Bryant Riley and Tom Kelleher, incorporated in Delaware in 2009, and became publicly listed through its strategic combination with Great American Group, Inc. in 2014. The Company has more than 1,552 affiliated professionals, including employees and independent contractors. We are headquartered in Los Angeles, California and maintain offices throughout the U.S., including in New York, New Jersey, Chicago, Metro District of Columbia, Boston, Dallas, Memphis, Miami, San Francisco, Boca Raton, and Palm Beach Gardens, as well as an office located in India.
Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company
We are a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of any fiscal year for so long as either (1) the market value of our shares of common stock held by non-affiliates does not equal or exceed $250.0 million as of the prior June 30th, or (2) our annual revenues did not equal or exceed $100.0 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of our shares of common stock held by non-affiliates did not equal or exceed $700.0 million as of the prior June 30th. To the extent we take advantage of any reduced disclosure obligations, it may make comparison of our financial statements with other public companies difficult or impossible.
Corporate Information
We are a Delaware corporation. Our executive offices are located at 11100 Santa Monica Blvd., Suite 800, Los Angeles, California, 90025, and the telephone number at our principal executive office is (310) 966-1444. Our website address is http://www.brcgh.com. We have not incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus the information on our website, and you should not consider it to be a part of this document.

• 300,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding options.
Risk Factor Summary
The following summarizes the principal factors that make an investment in the Company speculative or risky, all of which are more fully described in the Risk Factors section below. This summary should be read in conjunction with the Risk Factors section and should not be relied upon as an exhaustive summary of the material risks facing our business. The occurrence of any of these risks could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or growth prospects or cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements we have made in this prospectus and those we may make from time to time. You should consider all the risk factors described in our public filings when evaluating our business.
Some of the factors that could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Our revenues and results of operations are volatile and difficult to predict and have been impacted by recent divestiture transactions.
• Recent events and developments related to our investment in Freedom VCM and our prior business relationship with Brian Kahn and related to the SEC subpoenas we received have had and may continue to have adverse effects on our business, results of operations, reputation, and stock price.
2
• Our exposure to legal liability is significant and could lead to substantial damages.
• We may incur losses as a result of ineffective risk management processes and strategies.
• If we cannot meet our future capital requirements, we may be unable to develop and enhance our services, take advantage of business opportunities and respond to competitive pressures.
• Our level of indebtedness, and restrictions under such indebtedness, could adversely affect our operations and liquidity.
• We may suffer losses if our reputation is harmed.
• Our failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and business and the price of our common stock and other securities.
• We may enter into new lines of business, make strategic investments or acquisitions or enter into joint ventures, each of which may result in additional risks and uncertainties for our business.
• Our corporate finance and strategic advisory engagements are singular in nature and do not generally provide for subsequent engagements.
• We are subject to net capital and other regulatory capital requirements; failure to comply with these rules would significantly harm our business.
• We have made and may make investments in relatively high-risk, illiquid assets that often have significantly leveraged capital structures, and we may fail to realize any profits from these activities for a considerable period of time or lose some or all of the principal amount we invest in these activities.
• We are exposed to credit risk from a variety of our activities, including loans, lines of credit, guarantees and backstop commitments, and we may not be able to fully realize the value of the collateral securing certain of our loans.
• We have had and may experience write downs of our investments and other losses related to the valuation of our investments and volatile and illiquid market conditions.
• If we are unable to attract and retain qualified personnel, we may not be able to compete successfully in our industry.
• Significant disruptions of information technology systems, breaches of data security, or unauthorized disclosures of sensitive data or personally identifiable information could adversely affect our business, and could subject us to liability or reputational damage.
• We did not pay dividends with respect to shares of our preferred stock and common stock and may not pay dividends regularly or at all in the future.
• Our publicly traded senior notes are unsecured and therefore are effectively subordinated to any secured indebtedness that we currently have or that we may incur in the future.
• The indenture under which our senior notes were issued contains limited protection for holders of our publicly traded senior notes.
• We have and may continue to issue additional notes.
• The rating for the 5.00% 2026 Notes, 5.25% 2028 Notes, 6.50% 2026 Notes, or 6.00% 2028 Notes provided at the time of the original issuance could, at any time, be revised downward or withdrawn entirely at the discretion of the issuing rating agency.
• Changes in trade policy and regulations in the United States and other countries, including changes in trade agreements and the imposition of tariffs, retaliatory measures and the resulting consequences, may have adverse impacts on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our securities, you should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties described in the section captioned “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC, as revised or supplemented by our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC since the filing of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, all of which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could suffer materially. In such event, the trading price of our Common Stock could decline, and you might lose all or part of your investment.
4
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of Common Stock offered by the selling securityholders under this prospectus. However, we will receive the proceeds of any cash exercise of the Warrants. If all of the Warrants were exercised for cash, we would receive aggregate proceeds of approximately $18.5 million. We intend to use the net proceeds from any cash exercise of the Warrants for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include repayment and/or repurchase of indebtedness.

We believe, based on information supplied by the selling securityholders, that except as may otherwise be indicated in the footnotes to the table above, the selling securityholder has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the shares of Common Stock reported as beneficially owned by it. Because the selling securityholder identified in the table may sell some or all of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by it and covered by this prospectus, and because there are currently no agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale of any of the shares of Common Stock, no estimate can be given as to the number of shares of Common Stock available for resale hereby that will be held by the selling securityholders upon termination of this offering. In addition, the selling securityholders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, or may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, the Common Stock they beneficially own in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date on which they provided the information set forth in the table above. We have, therefore, assumed for the purposes of the table, that each of the selling securityholders will sell all of the Common Stock owned beneficially by it that are covered by this prospectus, but will not sell any other shares of Common Stock that it presently owns.
Description of Transactions and Relationship with the Selling Securityholders
Credit Agreement
On February 26, 2025, the Company and the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, BR Financial Holdings, LLC (the “BRFH Borrower”), entered into a new credit agreement with a group of funds indirectly or directly controlled by Oaktree Capital Management, L.P., with Oaktree Fund Administration, LLC, acting as the administrative agent and collateral agent. The new credit agreement provided for (i) a three-year $125.0 million secured term loan credit facility (the “Initial Term Loan Facility”) and (ii) a four-month $35.0 million secured delayed draw term loan credit facility (the “Delayed Draw Facility” and, together with the Initial Term Loan Facility, the “Credit Facility”). The proceeds from the Initial Term Loan Facility were primarily used (a) to repay existing indebtedness, (b) for working capital and general corporate purposes and (c) to pay transaction fees and expenses. The proceeds of the Delayed Draw Facility were used (a) to fund obligations relating to the liquidation of substantially all of the assets of JOANN, Inc. and its subsidiaries and (b) for working capital and general corporate purposes. In connection with the Credit Facility, we issued warrants to certain affiliates of Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. in connection with the Credit Facility to purchase approximately 1,832,287 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $5.14 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Credit Agreement Warrants”). The Credit Agreement Warrants contain certain anti-dilution provisions pursuant to which, under certain circumstances, the warrant holders would be entitled to exercise the warrants for up to 19.9% of the then-outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock.
Borrowings accrue interest at the adjusted term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) rate as defined in the Credit Facility with an applicable margin of 8.00%. In addition to paying interest on outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility, the Company was required to pay (i) a closing fee of 3.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the loans under the Initial Term Loan Facility and 2.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the loans under the Delayed Draw Facility, and (ii) an exit fee upon the prepayment or repayment of the Credit Facility of 5.00% of the aggregate principal amount of such loans repaid, provided, that the Initial Term Loan Facility exit fee shall not be payable if the
8
share price for the Company’s Common Stock exceeds a certain threshold. The Credit Facility also contains a provision where the final $62.5 million of repayment of principal on the Initial Term Loan may be subject to an additional prepayment premium, as defined in the Credit Facility, if the prepayment occurs before the second anniversary date of the Credit Facility.
Subject to certain eligibility requirements, certain assets of the BRFH Borrower are placed into a borrowing base (the “Borrowing Base”), which serves to limit the borrowings under the Credit Facility. The sale of an asset in the Borrowing Base requires the BRFH Borrower to make a prepayment in an amount equal to the proceeds of such disposition multiplied by the percentage “credit” that is assigned to such asset in the Borrowing Base. The BRFH Borrower may be obligated to prepay the loans or post cash in a controlled account in the event the Borrowing Base falls below a certain level as defined in the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility contains covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s, the BRFH Borrower’s and the BRFH Borrower’s subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional indebtedness or liens, to dispose of assets, to make certain fundamental changes, to enter into restrictive agreements, to make certain investments, loans, advances, guarantees and acquisitions, to prepay certain indebtedness and to pay dividends or to make other distributions or redemptions/repurchases in respect of their respective equity interests.
In connection with the issuance of the Credit Agreement Warrants, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement Registration Rights Agreement”) with the holders of such Credit Agreement Warrants, pursuant to which the Company has granted such holders (i) certain shelf registration rights whereby the Company will register resales of the shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Credit Agreement Warrants and (ii) certain piggyback registration rights, in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement Registration Rights Agreement.
Private Exchange Transactions — Senior Notes
On March 26, 2025, the Company completed a private exchange transaction with an institutional investor pursuant to which the investor exchanged $86.3 million of aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.50% Senior Notes due March 2026 Notes and $36.7 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.00% Senior Notes due December 2026 owned by it for approximately $87.8 million aggregate principal amount of newly-issued 8.00% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2028 (the “New Notes”), whereupon the exchanged notes were cancelled.
On April 7, 2025, the Company completed a private exchange transaction with a certain institutional investor pursuant to which such investor exchanged approximately $22.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.00% Senior Notes due December 2026, 6.00% Senior Notes due January 2028 and 5.25% Senior Notes due August 2028 for approximately $10.0 million aggregate principal amount of the New Notes.
On May 21, 2025, the Company completed a private exchange transaction with certain institutional investors pursuant to which such investors exchanged approximately $139.1 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.50% Senior Notes due March 2026, 5.00% Senior Notes due December 2026 and 6.00% Senior Notes due January 2028 for approximately $93.1 million aggregate principal amount of the New Notes.
On June 30, 2025, the Company entered into a private exchange transaction with a certain institutional investor pursuant to which such investor exchanged approximately $28.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.00% Senior Notes due December 2026, 6.00% Senior Notes due January 2028 and 5.25% Senior Notes due August 2028 for $13.0 million aggregate principal amount of the New Notes.
On July 11, 2025, the Company entered into a private exchange transaction with a certain institutional investor pursuant to which such investor exchanged approximately $42.8 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6.50% Senior Notes due September 2026, 5.00% Senior Notes due December 2026, 6.00% Senior Notes due January 2028 and 5.25% Senior Notes due August 2028 for $24.6 million aggregate principal amount of the New Notes.
The exchange transactions executed on March 26, 2025, April 7, 2025, May 21, 2025, June 30, 2025 and July 11, 2025 are referred to herein as the “Exchange Transactions.”
In connection with these Exchange Transactions, the Company issued to such investors warrants to purchase a total of 913,692 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at an exercise price of $10.00 per share (the “Notes Warrants”). In connection with the issuance of such Notes Warrants, the Company entered into registration rights agreements with such investors, pursuant to which the Company has granted such investors (i) certain shelf registration rights whereby the Company will register resales of the shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the warrants
9
and (ii) certain piggyback registration rights, in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the registration rights agreement (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Notes Registration Rights Agreements” and, together with Credit Agreement Registration Rights Agreement, the “Registration Rights Agreements”).
The New Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of March 26, 2025 (the “Indenture”), between the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors, and GLAS Trust Company LLC, a New Hampshire limited liability company, as trustee and collateral agent (in such capacities, the “Trustee”), and the New Notes are unconditionally guaranteed jointly and severally by all direct and indirect wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries of the Company, subject to certain excluded subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”). The New Notes are secured on a second lien basis, junior to the obligations under the Company’s Credit Facility, by substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Guarantors. The New Notes are subordinated in right of payment to the payment in full of the obligations under the Company’s Credit Facility.
The New Notes accrue interest at a rate of 8.00% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 30 and October 31, starting October 31, 2025. The New Notes mature on January 1, 2028. The Company may redeem the New Notes (i) at any time, in whole or in part, before March 26, 2026, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount being redeemed, plus a customary make-whole premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date; and (ii) at any time, in whole or in part, after March 26, 2026, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

The selling securityholders, which as used herein includes the selling securityholders listed in the table under the heading “Selling Securityholders” and any direct or indirect transferees of Registrable Securities (as defined in the applicable Registration Rights Agreement) entitled to registration rights under the applicable Registration Rights Agreement and such other securityholders as may be identified in one or more prospectus supplements, including any securityholders that receive Registrable Securities upon a distribution or liquidation, who have been assigned the rights of the transferor holder or holders under the applicable Registration Rights Agreement (in compliance therewith), and any other permitted donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of Common Stock or interests in shares of Common Stock received after the date of this prospectus from the selling securityholders, including as a gift, pledge, distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of Common Stock or interests in shares of Common Stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. These prices will be determined by the selling securityholders or by agreement between the selling securityholders and underwriters, broker-dealers or agents who may receive fees or commissions in connection with any such sale.
The selling securityholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:
• sales on NASDAQ or any national securities exchange or quotation service on which shares of Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of sale;
• an over-the-counter sale or distribution;
• one or more underwritten offerings (whether on a firm commitment or best efforts basis, including through bought deals);
• sales through agents or to or through underwriters, brokers or dealers;
• ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
• block trades (which may involve crosses) in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
• purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
• an exchange distribution and/or secondary distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
• privately negotiated transactions;

• a combination of any such methods of sale; and

11
The selling securityholders may elect to make an in-kind distribution of securities to their respective members, partners or stockholders. To the extent that such members, partners or stockholders are not affiliates of ours, such members, partners or stockholders would thereby receive freely tradeable securities pursuant to the distribution through the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
The selling securityholders may also sell their shares of Common Stock under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if, when and to the extent such exemption is available to them at the time of such sale, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling securityholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling securityholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares of Common Stock, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, Rule 5110; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.
The selling securityholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of Common Stock owned by it and, if it defaults in the performance of its secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of Common Stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling securityholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling securityholders under this prospectus. A selling securityholder may otherwise loan or pledge shares of Common Stock to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the shares short using this prospectus and an applicable prospectus supplement. Such financial institution or other third party may transfer its economic short position to investors in such shares or in connection with a concurrent offering of other securities. The selling securityholders also may transfer the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
In connection with the sale of our Common Stock or interests therein, the selling securityholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling securityholders may also sell shares of our Common Stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the Common Stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling securityholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
A selling securityholder may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell shares of Common Stock not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement so indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use shares of Common Stock pledged by such selling securityholder or borrowed from such selling securityholder or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of securities, and may use shares of Common Stock received from such selling securityholder in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of securities. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and, if not identified in this prospectus, will be named in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment).
If the selling securityholders use one or more underwriters in the sale, the underwriters will acquire shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus for their own account, and they may resell such shares from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. Shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus may be offered and sold to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more of such firms. The selling securityholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares of Common Stock purchased by them may be
12
deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Underwriters may resell the shares to or through dealers, and those dealers may receive compensation in the form of one or more discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and commissions from purchasers for which they may act as agents. Each selling securityholder has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the shares of Common Stock.
To the extent required, the shares of Common Stock to be sold, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealers or underwriters and any applicable discounts, commissions, concessions or other compensation with respect to a particular offering will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.
Pursuant to the Credit Agreement Registration Rights Agreement, we will pay all expenses relating to the registration, offering and listing of the applicable shares of Common Stock, including up to $100,000 of counsel fees of the applicable selling securityholders, except that the selling securityholders will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to indemnify the applicable selling securityholders against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and the applicable selling securityholders have agreed to indemnify us against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, which may arise from any written information furnished to us by the selling securityholders expressly for use in this prospectus and/or in any prospectus supplement, as applicable.
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares of Common Stock may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the Common Stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the selling securityholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of Common Stock by the selling securityholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling securityholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).
There can be no assurances that the selling securityholders will sell, nor are the selling securityholders required to sell, any or all of the shares of Common Stock offered under this prospectus.
To the extent required pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreements, this prospectus may be amended and/or supplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution. If required by the terms of the applicable Registration Rights Agreement, we may add permitted transferees, successors and donees by prospectus supplement in instances where the permitted transferee, successor or donee has acquired its shares from holders named in this prospectus after the effective date of this prospectus. Permitted transferees, successors and assigns of identified selling securityholders may not be able to use this prospectus for resales until they are named in the selling securityholders table by prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment. See “Selling Securityholders.” Additional selling securityholders may be named in one or more prospectus supplements.

• on or after such date, the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.

Some of these provisions provide that stockholders cannot act by written consent and impose advance notice requirements and procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as directors. Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, allows us to issue shares of preferred stock (see “Blank Check Preferred Stock”) or Common Stock without any action by stockholders. Our directors and our officers are indemnified by us to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law pursuant to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended. Our Board of Directors is expressly authorized to make, alter or repeal our Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended. These provisions may make it more difficult for stockholders to take specific corporate actions and may make it more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of the Company by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.
Blank Check Preferred Stock
Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, authorizes our Board of Directors to approve the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, without further approval of the stockholders, and to determine the rights and preferences of any series of preferred stock. The Board of Directors could issue one or more series of preferred stock with voting, conversion, dividend, liquidation or other rights that would adversely affect the voting power and ownership interest of holders of our Common Stock. This authority may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers, delaying or preventing a change in control and discouraging bids for our Common Stock at a premium over the market price.
Warrants
The Warrants were issued in connection with the Credit Agreement and the Exchange Transactions. As of the date of this prospectus, the Warrants were exercisable for an aggregate of 2,745,979 shares of Common Stock.
Exercisability. The Warrants were exercisable immediately upon issuance and expire seven years from the date of issuance. The Warrants are exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice and payment in full in immediately available funds for the number of shares of Common Stock purchased upon such exercise. The Warrants may also be exercised, in whole or in part, by means of a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to the formula set forth in the Warrant. The Company shall not be required to issue a fractional share of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrants. Upon exercise, the Company shall pay to each holder an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) such fraction multiplied by (ii) the Fair Market Value of share of Common Stock underlying the Warrant on the date of exercise.
Exercise Price. The Credit Agreement Warrants have an initial exercise price of $5.14 per share and the initial exercise price of the Notes Warrants is $10.00 per share. The exercise price is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting our Common Stock and also upon any distributions of assets, including cash, stock or other property to our shareholders. The exercise price of the Credit Agreement Warrants is also subject to adjustment in the event we issue additional shares of Common Stock, whether directly or indirectly by way of convertible securities, at a price per share that is less than 130% of the exercise price, then in effect, of the Credit Agreement Warrants (a “Dilution Event”), subject to certain exceptions. In addition to an adjustment of the exercise price, a Dilution Event could also result in an adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Credit Agreement Warrants.
15
Transferability. Subject to applicable laws, the Warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without our consent.
Exchange Listing. There is no established public trading market for the Warrants. We do not intend to apply for listing of the Warrants on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the Warrants is limited.
Fundamental Changes. In the event of any fundamental change, as described in the Warrants and generally including any capital reorganization of the Company, reclassification of the stock of the Company, merger with or into another entity, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, then upon any subsequent exercise of a Warrant, the holder will have the right to receive as alternative consideration, for each share of Common Stock that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such fundamental change, the number of shares or other securities or assets of the Company or of the successor or acquiring corporation or of our company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration receivable upon or as a result of such transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event.
Rights as a Shareholder. Except as otherwise provided in the Warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of our Common Stock, the holder of a Warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of our Common Stock, including any voting rights, until the holder exercises the Warrant.
Registration Rights. We have filed this registration statement with the SEC that includes this prospectus to register for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants to satisfy our obligations in connection with the Credit Agreement Registration Rights Agreement and the Exchange Transactions. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the registration statement effective at all times until the selling securityholder no longer owns any Warrants or shares issuable upon exercise thereof.
The descriptions of the Warrants in this prospectus and in any prospectus supplement are summaries of the material provisions of the applicable warrant agreements. These descriptions do not restate those agreements in their entirety and do not contain all of the information that you may find useful. We urge you to read the applicable agreements because they, and not the summaries, define many of your rights as holders of the Warrants. For more information, please review the form of the relevant agreements, which are filed with the SEC and available as described under the heading “Where You Can Find Additional Information.”

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) provides, in general, that a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, such as us, may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (other than a derivative action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. In the case of a derivative action, a Delaware corporation may indemnify any such person against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification will be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person will have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any other court in which such action was brought determines such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses.
Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, each as amended, provide that we will indemnify our directors, officers, employees and agents to the extent and in the manner permitted by the provisions of the DGCL, as amended from time to time, subject to any permissible expansion or limitation of such indemnification, as may be set forth in any stockholders’ or directors’ resolution or by contract.
We also have director and officer indemnification agreements with each of our executive officers and directors that provide, among other things, for the indemnification to the fullest extent permitted or required by Delaware law, provided that such indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification in connection with any proceedings or claims initiated or brought voluntarily by the indemnitee and not by way of defense, unless (i) such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law, (ii) the proceeding was authorized by our Board of Directors, (iii) indemnification is provided by us, in our sole discretion, pursuant to powers vested in us under the DGCL, or (iv) the proceeding is brought to establish or enforce a right to indemnification under the indemnification agreement or any other statute or law or otherwise as required under Section 145 of the DGCL. We are not required to indemnify the indemnitee for any amounts paid in settlement of a proceeding unless we consent to such settlement.
II-1
Any repeal or modification of these provisions approved by our stockholders shall be prospective only, and shall not adversely affect any limitation on the liability of a director or officer existing as of the time of such repeal or modification.
We have purchased and intend to maintain insurance on our behalf and on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer against any loss arising from any claim asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in that capacity, subject to certain exclusions and limits of the amount of coverage.

§ In accordance with Item 601(a)(5) of Regulation S-K, certain schedules and exhibits have not been filed. The Company agrees to furnish supplementally a copy of any omitted schedule or exhibit to the SEC upon request.
† The Warrant Agreements between the Company and each of Annuity Investors Life Insurance Company, C.M. Life Insurance Company, Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company and MassMutual Ascend Life Insurance Company are substantially identical in all material respects to the Form of Warrant incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 10.1 of the Company’s Form 8-K, filed on May 28, 2025, except that the “Issuance Amounts” in such holders’ agreements are 2,636, 13,384, 278,788 and 77,460, respectively.
‡ The Warrant Agreements between the Company and each of Great American Insurance Company, Great American Contemporary Insurance Company, and National Interstate Insurance Company are substantially identical in all material respects to the Form of Warrant incorporated herein, except that the “Issuance Amounts” in such holders’ agreements are 36,496, 1,736, and 1,736, respectively.
Item 17. Undertakings
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation
II-10
from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the Registration Statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the Registration Statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement or prospectus that is part of the Registration Statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the Registration Statement or prospectus that was part of the Registration Statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
(5) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(6) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
