- June 26, 2026 - Flash Sports & Media, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLZH), a
sports media and content company focused on the global cricket industry,
today announced the release of its 2026 Investor Presentation filed

A Global T20 Opportunity
Twenty20 cricket has emerged as the commercial engine of world cricket,
with an estimated 75% of global cricket viewership now T20-led and the
overall global cricket market valued at approximately $10-12 billion.
Franchise leagues have become the primary driver of media value in the
sport, with mature markets such as the Indian Premier League commanding
$6.2 billion in media rights and franchise valuations exceeding $1.6
billion. South Africa's SA20 commands approximately $100 million in
broadcast rights, while Pakistan's PSL continues to grow.
Flash Sports & Media believes that the highest remaining growth
opportunity lies in building the next tier of emerging market leagues —
before valuations reflect the full maturity of the format.
Strategic Execution: From Licensing to Ownership
The Company's strategy centers on a phased transition from third-party
rights licensing toward full vertical integration, combining owned
content rights with proprietary distribution infrastructure. Each phase
of the strategy is gated on rights acquisition milestones, capital
deployment, and market adoption benchmarks.
The LPL serves as the Company's anchor market and initial entry point,
with the strategic roadmap targeting expansion that would ultimately
bring the company into four proposed markets: Sri Lanka, Malaysia,
Singapore, and Zimbabwe, subject to definitive agreements.
By owning both content and distribution, Flash Sports & Media aims
to capture a greater share of the value chain than traditional licensing
arrangements allow — a model it expects to replicate across multiple
markets to create a scalable, multi-league T20 platform.
