Beneficient (NASDAQ: BENF) issued a statement on the federal jury conviction of former chairman and CEO Brad Heppner on securities fraud, wire fraud, conspiracy, and false statements to auditors tied to GWG Holdings.
According to the company, Heppner acted solely via his family office through a shell entity, and Beneficient promptly removed him after uncovering credible evidence of fraud, cooperating fully with authorities. The verdict supports the company’s prior disclosures and, per Beneficient, strengthens its position to challenge a purported debt to HCLP Nominees, now known to be controlled by Heppner, and to pursue additional claims aimed at recovering value for stockholders.
