This Schedule 13D/A reports that APi Group Corp issued approximately 15.2 million shares of common stock as a dividend on its Series A Preferred Stock to Mariposa Acquisition IV, LLC. This issuance, valued at approximately $592 million, represents a significant dilutive event for existing common shareholders, increasing the total outstanding share count. The shares were subsequently distributed among the members of Mariposa, an entity controlled by Sir Martin E. Franklin, who continues to beneficially own a substantial 12.9% stake in the company. While the dividend is a consequence of pre-existing preferred stock terms rather than a new capital raise, the material increase in share count will impact per-share metrics.
