**Medalist Diversified, Inc. (NASDAQ: MDRR) Announces DST Sponsor Platform; Inaugural Tesla-Leased Offering Available to Accredited 1031 Investors**

*Richmond-based public company positions DST sponsorship as a core strategy.*

**RICHMOND, Va. — May 6, 2026 —** Medalist Diversified, Inc. (NASDAQ: MDRR) ("Medalist" or the "Company") today announced its Delaware Statutory Trust ("DST") sponsor platform, operated through its wholly-owned subsidiary, MDRR Sponsor TRS, LLC (the "Sponsor"). Medalist, through the Sponsor, provides a publicly-traded platform to accredited 1031 exchange investors and their advisors, featuring SEC-reporting transparency, independent board governance and third-party due diligence on every offering.

The DST platform's inaugural offering, MDRR XXV DST 1, is currently available only to accredited investors through registered broker-dealers and registered investment advisors. The DST offering is structured around a single-tenant, net-leased sales, service and delivery facility in Pensacola, Florida, leased to Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA). Tesla is rated investment-grade by S&P Global Ratings.

MDRR XXV DST 1 has completed independent third-party due diligence through recognized industry service providers, including FactRight and Mountain Dell Consulting. The DST property is a 45,461-square-foot facility that serves as Tesla's sales, service and delivery hub for Northwest Florida and Southern Alabama and includes 20+ service bays, eight Supercharger stations, and more than 150 parking spaces. The offering is structured with approximately 47% loan-to-value financing and includes fixed-rate debt with coverage metrics consistent with institutional underwriting standards.

*"We believe that Medalist is building a publicly-traded sponsor platform where investors, advisors, and broker-dealer partners have clear visibility into the sponsor's financials through our publicly available SEC filings,"* said Brent Winn, Chief Financial Officer.

*"We are focused on sourcing investments characterized by institutional quality tenants, long-term leases and conservative use of leverage. For example, the MDRR XXV DST 1 investment was structured with a 47% loan-to-value ratio. Our approach emphasizes credit quality, lease structure, and capital discipline as core elements of our investment process,"* said Peter Elwell, Managing Director, DST Investments.

The Sponsor continues to develop its broker-dealer and registered investment advisor distribution network and plans to continue to focus its underwriting strategy on single-tenant and multi-tenant commercial real estate leased to institutional tenants, principally in the Southeast, mountain states, and California.

*"MDRR XXV DST 1 is currently being offered through participating broker-dealer and advisor relationships as we continue to expand our distribution network. We aim to provide our partners with access to institutional real estate investments through a platform operated within a publicly traded company, with public disclosures available regarding our financial condition and governance,"* said Ron Nielsen, Executive Vice President, Sponsor Operations.
