MRDN

Meridian Holdings has transitioned from an acquisition-driven story to a profitable, earnings-focused operation, with two consecutive quarters of profitability. MRDN's core Meridianbet segment is expanding faster than the online gambling market, driving strong revenue growth, improved operating leverage, and reduced interest expense. Despite a working capital deficiency and pending acquisition payments, MRDN's cost structure and free cash flow have enabled significant debt reduction and margin expansion.

Meridian NASDAQ: MRDN reported second-quarter revenue growth, a second consecutive quarter of GAAP profitability and continued debt reduction, while management said sportsbook margins were pressured by bettor-friendly World Cup results.
