Noel Maxam as co-EP replaced Janet Drucker. Janet announced at the end of March 2025 that she was retiring soon; but, per the articles about some observance or party on-set, her last day was on May 2, 2025. That would put Maxam's full impact officially as co-EP to begin airing in episodes around March-April 2026. That ties in with dates of actors who are coming/going in various spoiler threads (I won't state those names here since this is nonspoiler thread.)
However, Maxam has been active at DAYS for a long time as director and seems to have already had input into the show overall. He did an interview August 7, 2025 in which talks about his overall vision/perception of what DAYS is about. He is asked what prop would you steal from the set if you could take anything. He replies "Stefano's ring" and implies that this symbolizes the show (or something like that).
This can finally be posted in the nonspoiler area, since that ring started being featured in the past few episodes.
The interview was for soaps.sheknows. Their article contains his video interview embedded within it, but you have to disable adblock for the video to appear, and some cannot see it at all.
The first part of his interview is summarized in the text of the article.

The part about the ring is * only * on the video.
Here's a copy of the full video, to hear what he actually says about the ring:
