LTRY Lottery com Inc

Lottery.com Inc. (Nasdaq: LTRY, LTRYW) (“Lottery.com” or the “Company”), a leading technology company in digital lottery and sports entertainment, announces the establishment of a global advisory board (the “Advisory Board”) to provide active strategic guidance and support the Company’s growth, structure and expansion into new markets.

The Advisory Board will focus on the Company’s two primary brands, Lottery.com and Sports.com, along with its subsidiaries. As Lottery.com navigates complex opportunities for growth, the Advisory Board will offer steady leadership, bringing together industry leaders with deep experience in gaming, technology, operations, media, compliance and private equity. This distinguished group will provide independent advice on evolving trends and challenges to Lottery.com’s board of directors and executive management team, helping evaluate the Company’s current business model, refine operations and explore new trends and prospects to accelerate growth. Additionally, the Advisory Board will support corporate governance and offer strategic recommendations to ensure compliance and long-term stability.

The initial members of the Advisory Board are:

• Chairman: Cary S. Fitchey, Senior Managing Partner at British Pacific Partners LLC, a Los Angeles-based advisory firm and merchant bank. Mr. Fitchey raised and invested over $2 billion in the U.S., Europe and South Africa. Mr. Fitchey has been a special consultant to the CEO of the Company since May 2024 and has years of experience in acquisitions, strategy, compliance and corporate governance.

• Ashleigh Barry, Senior Vice President of Strategic Communications, National Association for Veteran’s Rights. A multiple Emmy and Edward R. Murrow Award-winning journalist, Ms. Barry has an extensive background in U.S. Federal Government advisory roles.

• Damien Lipman, Founder and Managing Director, TenXnet FZCO, a company specializing in providing payment solutions for complex jurisdictions. His career began as a British Army officer in The Life Guards Household Cavalry, where he served for eight years, including operational deployments in Afghanistan, earning recognition for leadership in high-pressure environments. His career also includes leadership roles in consultancy, hedge fund marketing, financial operations, business development and strategic partnerships.

• Sam Verma, Co-Founder and Chairman, FansXR, a portfolio of fan-controlled 2D, 360 and animated entertainment and sports gamification powered by extended reality and augmented data overlays. He has helped develop projects in hospitality, casinos and online gaming, along with extensive experience in international banking, communications, technology and marketing.

While Lottery.com continues to focus on the future, guided by principles such as integrity and transparency, it anticipates that the Advisory Board will also offer valuable insight and make recommendations to the Company moving it further and further away from legacy matters associated with the Company’s prior management. The formation of the Company’s Advisory Board comes at a favourable time as Lottery.com experiences renewed interest from investors following a Notice of Effectiveness for its S-1 from the SEC last quarter.

The Advisory Board will provide valuable expertise in responsibly expanding the Lottery.com brand, identifying and evaluating new markets that currently support lottery and sweepstakes games or are considering legalizing gaming. In 2023, the global lottery market was valued at approximately $335 billion, with nearly 30% of proceeds allocated to public programs such as education, veterans’ affairs, and healthcare. Lottery.com, with guidance from its Advisory Board, aims to enhance its impact in these areas by creating a sustainable philanthropic framework within its business model, reinforcing its commitment to social responsibility and community development.

Matthew McGahan, Lottery.com Chairman and CEO, commented:

“Immediately after receiving the Notice of Effectiveness from the SEC regarding our S-1 last fall, I met with the Company’s directors and executive team to discuss the formation of this advisory board. This is an important step to best position the Company for growth in a way that ensures compliance, trust with our customers and maximizes shareholder value.”

Cary Fitchey, Lottery.com Advisory Board Chairman, added:

“The Advisory Board will actively focus on how the Company can facilitate growth while navigating complexities of operating and marketing in multiple domestic and international markets. Our role is to support and augment the board and management to ensure the ongoing growth and structuring of the Company to achieve the value for our shareholders and the communities we serve.”

Ashleigh Barry, Lottery.com Advisory Board member also comment:“Advocacy and strategic communication are essential in today’s evolving business landscape, and I am honored to join Lottery.com’s Advisory Board at such a transformative time for the Company. Lottery.com’s commitment to integrity and expansion aligns with my passion for driving meaningful impact, and I look forward to helping the company navigate its next phase of growth in the digital lottery and sports entertainment industry.”
