</div>WARWICK, NY, May 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ozop Energy Solutions, Inc. (OTC: OZSC, the “Company”) today highlighted the rollout of a redesigned can for Ballislife Drink, along with the transition to “Ballislife Hydro Sports Drink,” representing a meaningful advancement in how the brand is presented within the sports hydration category. OZOP has previously entered into a binding letter of intent for a proposed transaction with Varon Corp. The updated can design represents a deliberate shift toward clearer category positioning at retail, with “HYDRO” prominently featured and more immediate identification as a sports hydration product at the point of purchase. The redesign also introduces more defined color differentiation across flavors and a cleaner overall layout, improving shelf visibility and enabling faster consumer recognition in high-traffic retail environments. <img height="285.21px" name="GNW_RichHtml_IMG" src="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/ba72b940-b1b3-4883-b03b-eedd1484a08b/image2.jpeg" width="427.82px" data-dpi="220" data-filename="image2.jpeg" /> The previous design emphasized the Ballislife brand identity, while the updated packaging shifts emphasis toward function, hydration, and performance at the point of purchase, allowing consumers to immediately understand the product’s purpose when encountering it on shelf. As part of this repositioning, the product will now be marketed under the name “Ballislife Hydro Sports Drink,” reinforcing its role within the sports hydration category and aligning the product more directly with how consumers shop and evaluate hydration products in retail environments. The updated packaging and naming will be implemented across all current and future production runs and will roll out in parallel with the Company’s expanding retail footprint across the United States. Ballislife Hydro Sports Drink is a performance-formulated beverage designed to support endurance, hydration, and mental focus. The product combines beet juice concentrate for nitric oxide support, beta-alanine to help delay muscle fatigue, and a comprehensive electrolyte blend to optimize hydration and recovery. B6 and B12 support energy metabolism, while L-theanine enhances focus—all delivered without caffeine and with just 45 calories from organic cane sugar. “This update was about making the product easier to understand the moment you see it,” said Benjamin Schubert, Chief Executive Officer of Varon Corp (@benjamin_varon_). “As we move deeper into retail, that clarity matters. The new design communicates function, hydration, and performance immediately, without losing the identity of the brand.” “At scale, small changes in how a product is presented can have a significant impact,” said Lior Srulovicz, President and Chief Financial Officer of Varon Corp. “This update improves how the product is positioned on shelf and makes it easier for consumers to engage with it quickly, which is important as we continue expanding distribution.” About Ballislife Inc.
