Patrick Stadelhofer's questions to MBIA Inc (MBI) leadership • Q2 2025
Question
Patrick Stadelhofer of Kahn Brothers Group asked if monetizing half of the newly securitized PREPA claims could accelerate a potential sale of the company by reducing uncertainty or, alternatively, facilitate a special dividend. He also questioned the specific timing of the decision to transfer the claims to a custodian.
Answer
William Fallon, Director & CEO, affirmed that selling a significant portion of the claims would be a major step in reducing uncertainty, which is a prerequisite for a company sale. He stated it was premature to speculate on special dividends. Regarding the timing, Fallon explained there was no specific catalyst; the process took time to implement, and the action was taken once a meaningful quantity of fully paid bond claims had accumulated.
