Daniel Maurice Wagner’s beneficial ownership of Rezolve AI PLC rose to 55,029,792 ordinary shares, or 13.8%, under an activist Schedule 13D position. The increase came from resolving pre-existing contractual call Options and a non-cash estate distribution, rather than an open-market purchase, while Wagner retains the ability to review or change his plans.

Key Highlights

  • A Call Option covering 2,025,496 ordinary shares expired under its terms after being first exercisable on December 21, 2018.
  • DBLP Sea Cow Limited reported 50,331,287 ordinary shares, representing 12.62% of Rezolve AI.
  • Daniel Wagner may review his position and seek to influence Rezolve AI’s management or board.

Rezolve AI PLC (NASDAQ: RZLV) activist holder Daniel Maurice Wagner now beneficially owns 55,029,792 ordinary shares, equal to 13.8% of the company’s outstanding stock. His reported ownership rose through non-market events tied to two pre-existing contractual call options and a non-cash distribution from the Estate of John Wagner. The transactions did not involve an open-market purchase or sale by any reporting person.

Those securities passed to the estate upon John Wagner’s death.

Two Contractual Options Resolved

A separate call option held by Wickens covered 2,025,496 ordinary shares and carried an exercise price of $3.00 per share. That option expired according to its terms after first becoming exercisable on December 21, 2018. The option activity was not an open-market sale by Wagner or DBLP. The reported ownership change therefore reflects the resolution of contractual arrangements rather than a market purchase or disposal.

Estate Distribution Sets Next Step

The Estate of John Wagner distributed shares to DBLP for no consideration on July 10, 2026. The reporting persons stated that they have no present plans or proposals related to the actions listed in the applicable activist disclosure provisions. They may, however, review, reconsider or change their position and purpose, and may seek to influence Rezolve AI’s management or board regarding the company’s Business and affairs.
