**BENEFICIENT**

**203,212,927 Shares of Class A Common Stock**

This prospectus supplement updates and supplements the prospectus of Beneficient, a Nevada corporation (the "Company," "we," "us" or "our"), dated November 12, 2024, which forms a part of our Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (Registration No. 333-281694) (the "Prospectus"). This prospectus supplement is being filed to update and supplement the information in the Prospectus with the information contained in our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on June 17, 2025. Accordingly, we have attached the Form 8-K to this prospectus supplement. The information included in the Form 8-K that is furnished shall not be deemed to be "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

This prospectus supplement should be read in conjunction with the Prospectus. This prospectus supplement updates and supplements the information in the Prospectus. If there is any inconsistency between the information in the Prospectuses and this prospectus supplement, you should rely on the information in this prospectus supplement.

Our Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Class A common stock"), is listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "BENF," and the warrants, with each warrant exercisable for one share of Class A common stock and one share of Series A preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, at an exercise price of $11.50 (the "Warrants"), are listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "BENFW". On June 16, 2025, the last reported sales price of the Class A common stock was $0.2999 per share, and the last reported sales price of our Warrants was $0.0067 per Warrant. We are an "emerging growth company" and a "smaller reporting company" as defined under the U.S. federal securities laws and, as such, may elect to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements for this and future filings. Certain holders of our Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Class B common stock"), have entered into a stockholders agreement concerning the election of directors of the Company, and holders of Class B common stock have the right to elect a majority of the Company's directors. As a result, the Company is a "controlled company" within the meaning of the Nasdaq Listing Rules and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance standards.

**Investing in our securities involves risk. See the sections entitled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 9 of the Prospectus and under similar headings in any further amendments or supplements to the Prospectus to read about factors you should consider before buying our securities.** 

**Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if any Prospectus or this prospectus supplement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.**

**The date of this prospectus supplement is June 17, 2025.**

**Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.**

On June 17, 2025, Beneficient (the "Company") issued a press release announcing that the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the " Bankruptcy Court") approved the previously disclosed agreement to settle all claims pending in the Bankruptcy Court under the previously disclosed lawsuits relating to GWG Holdings, Inc. ("GWG" and such litigation, the "GWG Litigation") against the Company, its subsidiaries, and each of their current and former directors and officers (collectively, the "Beneficient Parties") in the Bankruptcy Court. A copy of such press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

The information in this Item 7.01 of Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to liabilities under that section and is not incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.

**Item 8.01 Other Events.**

As previously announced on March 10, 2025, the Company entered into a binding settlement agreement to resolve all claims in the GWG Litigation for a sum within applicable insurance policy limits. The settlement agreement remains subject to the approval of the District Court for the Northern District of Texas. With the Bankruptcy Court's approval, the settlement in the Bankruptcy Court is now final, subject to a 14-day period to appeal. The settlement resolves all claims filed in the Bankruptcy Court against the Beneficient Parties without any admission, concession or finding of any fault, liability or wrongdoing by the Company or any defendant.

Following the settlement of the GWG Litigation in the Bankruptcy Court, other outstanding GWG-related claims against parties other than the Beneficient Parties remain outstanding, including certain claims against entities related to Beneficient's founder and CEO to whom Beneficient owes certain indemnification obligations. The Company continues to support a vigorous defense against such claims.
