The short version
What the latest filing tells us
For the plan year ended Dec 31, 2024, MERLIN INTERNATIONAL, INC. reported $316,806 in employer contributions across the plan and 80 active participants. That works out to $3,960 per active participant. It is useful context, but it is not the current match formula and it does not show what any one employee received.
Active participants divided by all end-of-year plan participants. This is not the company participation rate because the filing does not report every eligible employee.

Where the public filing stops
Current match, vesting, eligibility, employee fees, and investment choices require a dated plan document. Until we have one, those details stay blank.
