An announcement from Vivakor ( (VIVK) ) is now available.

Between December 23 and December 30, 2025, Vivakor received conversion notices from several lenders, resulting in the conversion of approximately $2.42 million of previously issued convertible promissory notes into 159.9 million shares of common stock, issued without restrictive legends under a private placement exemption, a move that reduces debt while significantly increasing the company’s outstanding equity base. On December 30, 2025, the company also reset the payment date of its previously announced special dividend of shares in Adapti, Inc. to April 30, 2026 due to regulatory filing delays linked to a recent U.S. government shutdown, with the dividend still payable to shareholders of record as of September 5, 2025, highlighting both timing uncertainty for investors and the strategic relevance of Vivakor’s 206,595-share stake in Adapti, a sports- and influencer-focused technology company with ties to Vivakor’s CEO.

The most recent analyst rating on (VIVK) stock is a Hold with a $0.01 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Vivakor stock, see the VIVK Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on VIVK Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, VIVK is a Neutral.

The score is held down primarily by weak financial quality (ongoing losses and negative operating/free cash flow) and very bearish technicals (deep downtrend with negative momentum). Corporate events provide some strategic and liquidity positives, but are offset by Nasdaq compliance risk and restructuring/dilution signals; valuation support is limited due to negative earnings and no dividend.
