Coventry's Motion to Dismiss: Coventry First LLC and its Chairman Alan H. Buerger filed a Motion to Dismiss a lawsuit from Abacus Global Management, arguing that the lawsuit aims to suppress free speech regarding issues in the life settlement industry, particularly following the shutdown of Abacus's key life expectancy provider, Lapetus Solutions, Inc.
Importance of Open Debate: The Motion emphasizes the necessity of transparent discussions about life expectancy estimates and the life settlement market, asserting that the First Amendment protects the right to express concerns on public interest matters.

Overweight
Reason
Piper Sandler lowered the firm's price target on Abacus Global to $10 from $12 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares. The firm notes asset managers have underperformed broader financials and the market year-to-date, but performance has improved in recent months as markets have calmed since the volatility around Liberation Day. In April, sentiment worsened dramatically around tariff announcements with worries deal activity would come to a standstill for months. Since then, there has been some thawing with a return in capital markets activity, Piper adds. In this backdrop, where activity is starting to return but is still far from normal, the firm is favoring credit focused names with management fee focused models.

Commenting on the report issued by a short seller making allegations against Abacus Global, TD Cowen says that while the firm is still looking into some of the claims, it feels the source cast some doubt. Additionally, Abacus' model, reliant on direct originations and a short holding period, would seem to argue against overvaluation of policies. This report's author holds a short position in Abacus, which could cloud its objectivity, TD Cowen also points out. Additionally, many allegations in the report seem to originate from a key competitor of the company. Relatedly, many of the allegations are not new, as this competitor has publicly questioned Lapetus LEs for over a year, it adds. The firm has a Buy rating on Abacus with a price target of $14.
