William Scott, Chairman and incoming Chief Financial Officer, said:"Over the past seven months, we have worked to strengthen the operational and financial foundations of the Company and reinforce the balance sheet. This leadership structure change gives Zoran clear accountability for day-to-day execution while I focus on financial stewardship, capital allocation and Board leadership. Michael's appointment adds valuable independent expertise and further strengthens our governance and audit oversight."

Zoran Milošević, Chief Executive Officer, said:"Meridian has built a strong operating platform over many years. My priority is to build on that foundation, bring the same operating discipline that has driven Meridianbet's performance to the broader Company group, strengthen our position across regulated markets and create long-term value for shareholders. I look forward to working with William, Michael and the entire team as we work to execute the next stage of Meridian's growth."

The Board believes the new leadership structure enhances executive accountability, strengthens corporate governance and positions Meridian Holdings (NASDAQ: MRDN) to execute its long-term strategic objectives. These appointments follow the Company's second-quarter 2026 results, released separately today, and reflect its continued focus on disciplined execution, governance and sustainable long-term growth.
