"The acquisition of Drone Nerds transformed XTI Aerospace into a scaled, revenue-generating platform," said Scott Pomeroy, Chief Executive Officer of XTI Aerospace. "Drone Nerds is a leading enterprise-focused UAS solutions provider with deep customer relationships and a proven operating model that continues to deliver strong performance. Its OEM-agnostic approach and broad supplier network position us to participate in a rapidly evolving market. Just as important, the platform provides real-time data and market intelligence that informs where we invest, build, and expand. We believe this foundation positions us to support growth and support our expansion into new markets and higher-value opportunities across the business."

"XTI Drones continues to scale as a cash-generating commercial engine. Our Advanced Technology and Manufacturing division strengthens our ability to expand our participation in the value chain through U.S.-based manufacturing. Our Autonomous Defense Systems initiative is building a pipeline of potential military and defense contract opportunities in a large and growing market. Together, these elements create a flywheel that we believe is designed to support growth, margin expansion, and long-term value creation. In 2026, our focus is execution."

Liquidity and Capital ResourcesAt December 31, 2025, the Company had $16.7 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. An additional $0.2 million of cash is included in current assets of discontinued operations and is not included in unrestricted cash balances.

The Company does not currently expect to require additional capital to support the ordinary-course operating needs of the Drone Nerds business. However, the Company may seek additional capital in the future to support strategic acquisitions and the development of its advanced systems and domestic manufacturing initiatives.

Subsequent to December 31, 2025 and through the date of this filing, holders of certain warrants issued in connection with our 2025 public offerings exercised warrants to purchase 3,963,408 shares of the Company's common stock. These exercises resulted in aggregate cash proceeds to us of approximately $7.9 million. We engaged ThinkEquity LLC as our exclusive advisor in connection with the solicitation of these warrants for which we paid cash compensation of 3% of the gross proceeds, or approximately $0.2 million. After deducting such commissions, the net proceeds we received from these warrant exercises was approximately $7.7 million.

Unaudited Supplemental Combined Financial InformationThe Company has provided unaudited supplemental financial information of the combined company in this press release. The following financial information combines XTI and Drone Nerds historical operating results as if the businesses had been operated together on a combined basis during prior periods. This financial information is intended to illustrate the current operating footprint of the Company following the acquisition of Drone Nerds and divestiture of the Company's Industrial IoT / Real-Time Location Systems business.

For the avoidance of doubt, the unaudited supplemental combined financial information was not prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X and differs from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included in the Pro Forma 8-K/A filing dated February 9, 2026 filed with the SEC (the "Pro Forma 8-K Filing"), which was prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited supplemental combined financial information was not prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X and is presented for illustrative purposes to assist investors in understanding the operational performance of the combined business, timing and operational impact of the acquisition, and integration of the combined business, and should not be considered a substitute for the pro forma financial information included in the Company's prior filings prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

Consequently, the unaudited supplemental combined financial information is intentionally different from, but does not supersede, the pro forma financial information set forth in the Pro Forma 8-K Filing or the pro forma financial information set forth in the Company's most recent annual report on Form 10-K

In addition, the unaudited supplemental combined financial information does not purport to indicate the results that actually would have been obtained had the companies been operated together during the periods presented, or which may be realized in the future. The unaudited supplemental combined financial information has no impact on XTI or Drone Nerds previously reported consolidated balance sheets or statements of operations, cash flows or equity.
