On August 11, 2025, the company announced that it had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with ML Holdco, an entity affiliated with funds advised by Centerbridge Partners, L.P. Under that agreement, MeridianLink shareholders were to receive cash consideration per share, and MeridianLink would become a private company upon closing of the transaction.
According to a Form 8-K dated October 24, 2025, the acquisition was completed on that date.

The same filing notes that a change in control occurred as a result of the merger.
On October 24, 2025, the New York Stock Exchange filed a Form 25 to remove MeridianLink’s common stock from listing and registration under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Subsequently, on November 3, 2025, MeridianLink filed a Form 15 to terminate the registration of its common stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to suspend its duty to file periodic reports under Sections 13 and 15(d). The Form 15 states that, on October 24, 2025, Merger Sub merged with and into the company, with MeridianLink surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of ML Holdco, Inc.
