ORLANDO, Fla., June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Abacus Global Management, Inc. (“Abacus” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ABL), a leader in the alternative asset management space, today provided the following response to a false and misleading short attack.

Abacus has been buying and selling life insurance policies for over two decades with long-standing and trusted counter-party relationships. If Abacus used flawed data causing over-valuation of the underlying insurance product assets, the Company would be going out of business, not consistently producing positive realized returns. As highlighted in the first quarter 10-Q Abacus filed on May 8, 2025, Abacus realized gains of nearly 40% while deploying capital of 126 million. These realized gains were within a margin of error of 2% of the mark from the prior quarter.

"Our returns and valuation are audited, and consistent with a 20-year track record of generating positive revenue. This is a copy and paste of fiction from our largest competitor, who has been shopping this story for months. Our success and growth put a bullseye on us, that’s fine – we are going to continue to grow,” said Jay Jackson, Chief Executive Officer at Abacus Global Management.

Abacus is highly regulated in nearly every state, and Abacus is the only top player in the category that is publicly traded, receiving higher scrutiny than our privately-held competitors.

Abacus will be producing a more detailed response to the inaccurate and false claims made by the short seller in the coming days.

Abacus is committed to pursuing all available legal remedies against the individuals and entities responsible for orchestrating and disseminating the false and misleading short attack.
