PART I

ITEM 1: BUSINESS

Overview

XTI Aerospace is a provider of unmanned aerial systems (“UAS”) solutions operating through two business divisions: a commercial drone solutions business and an advanced systems and defense division. The Company expects to continue developing a third business division, a domestic manufacturing and technology division. The Company’s commercial drone solutions business, conducted primarily through its majority owned subsidiary, XTI Drones Holdings, LLC, which owns Drone Nerds, LLC and Anzu Robotics, LLC (collectively, “Drone Nerds”), constitutes substantially all of the Company’s revenues. The advanced systems and defense division (formerly XTI Aircraft) is in an earlier stage of development and has not yet generated any revenues.

The Company was originally founded around the development of the TriFan 600, a planned vertical takeoff and landing (“VTOL”) aircraft. In 2025, the Company acquired Drone Nerds and, in light of that acquisition and its assessment of near-term opportunities in the unmanned systems market, redirected its former XTI Aircraft division beginning in 2026 toward the design and development of unmanned platforms for defense and commercial applications. The TriFan 600 program has been paused and the underlying intellectual property and engineering work product is being preserved and maintained. See “Business Divisions — TriFan 600 Strategic Context and Organizational Evolution” below for additional detail.

The Company’s near-term focus is on growing its commercial drone platform, expanding the range of products and services offered to enterprise and government customers, and pursuing strategic acquisitions that extend its geographic reach and customer base. The Company also is seeking to generate revenue from its advanced systems and domestic manufacturing divisions.

The Company’s strategy is organized around three priorities:

Expand the commercial drone distribution and services platform by growing the customer base, increasing revenue per customer, and improving operating margins, supported by proprietary data on customer purchasing behavior across product categories, geographies, and markets;

Pursue targeted acquisitions to expand geographic reach, add complementary capabilities, and deepen penetration across commercial and government markets; and

Develop capabilities in advanced unmanned systems technology, domestic manufacturing, and defense-oriented products and services to position the Company as a broader UAS solutions provider.

Corporate Strategy

XTI’s objective is to build a scalable UAS solutions platform through organic growth in its commercial business, targeted acquisitions and the staged development of its advanced systems and domestic manufacturing capabilities. The following describes each element of this strategy.

1. Strengthen the Commercial Drone Solutions Business

The Company is focused on expanding the scope of products and services offered through Drone Nerds to increase revenue per customer and improve operating margins. Current expansion areas include training and certification programs, repair and maintenance services, fleet management support, compliance assistance, and financing solutions. By offering these services alongside hardware distribution, the Company seeks to increase customer retention and establish longer-term customer relationships.

Drone Nerds operates as an OEM-agnostic distributor, meaning it is not restricted to the products of a single manufacturer. The Company believes this model provides a competitive advantage by allowing it to recommend the most suitable platform for a given customer’s operational requirements, independent of manufacturer relationships. However, the Company’s ability to maintain this model depends on continued access to OEM products and dealer programs, which are subject to change.

2. Grow Through Strategic Acquisitions and Partnerships

The UAS distribution and services market is highly fragmented. The Company intends to pursue acquisitions of complementary businesses that expand its customer base, geographic presence, or service capabilities. The Company uses data derived from its subsidiaries, primarily from Drone Nerds, to inform acquisition targeting decisions. There can be no assurance that suitable acquisition targets will be identified, that acquisitions will be completed on acceptable terms, or that acquired businesses will be successfully integrated.

The Company is also seeking to expand its customer base in government, defense, and public safety markets. Procurement in these markets is subject to requirements around platform compliance, cybersecurity and domestic sourcing, which the Company believes may favor distributors with established compliance capabilities. XTI believes it is well positioned to leverage its supply-side expertise and enterprise platform to serve these growing markets; however, government procurement decisions are subject to budgetary, regulatory and political factors outside the Company’s control.

3. Expand Domestic Manufacturing and Technology Capability

XTI intends to develop U.S.-based manufacturing and advanced technology capabilities for unmanned systems through partnerships, joint ventures, and selective investments. These initiatives are designed to address demand from government and enterprise customers for domestically manufactured platforms, which has been increasing as regulatory and procurement requirements around foreign-sourced systems have tightened. These development activities are at an early stage, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to execute manufacturing partnerships on acceptable terms or that demand for domestically manufactured platforms will develop as anticipated.

Business Divisions

Commercial Drone Solutions – XTI Drones (Drone Nerds)

XTI’s commercial drone solutions business is currently conducted primarily through Drone Nerds, a UAS solutions provider offering hardware distribution, training and certification, repair and maintenance, fleet sustainment, compliance support, and integrated solutions to enterprise and government customers. Drone Nerds operates through wholesale distribution, direct sales, and direct-to-consumer retail channels, including a retail showroom in South Florida and an e-commerce platform. The Company believes Drone Nerds is a significant enterprise-focused UAS distributor in the United States.

The commercial drone solutions business currently generates substantially all of the Company’s revenues and provides the customer relationships, operational infrastructure, and market data that support the Company’s broader acquisition and development strategy.

Autonomous Defense Systems (ADS), formerly XTI Aircraft — Strategic Context and Organizational Evolution

The ADS division reflects a strategic shift away from the TriFan 600 program and toward nearer-term unmanned systems opportunities. Management determined that continued development of the TriFan 600 program would require substantial additional time and capital, and the Company therefore redirected resources toward unmanned systems opportunities that it believes may offer nearer-term commercial applications.

In response, management conducted a structured search for new divisional leadership with a mandate to reorient the business around nearer-term, capital-efficient opportunities. That search concluded with the appointment of Steve Zohrabian, whose background in advanced manufacturing and defense product development is relevant to the operational and contractual realities of serving government and defense customers.

The acquisition of Drone Nerds in November 2025 served as the second anchor point around which the division’s updated strategy was set. Together, Zohrabian’s appointment and the Drone Nerds acquisition defined the strategic perimeter of the division and marked the beginning of a transformation in staffing, focus, and organizational priorities — a transformation substantially completed in Q1 2026.

The ADS team is now building a core capability around the design, development, and production of unmanned platforms, with an emphasis on serving defense customers and supporting domestic procurement initiatives aligned with U.S. national security priorities. The Company believes the unmanned systems market — particularly in defense and government procurement — presents a more actionable near-term revenue opportunity than continued TriFan 600 development at this stage of the Company’s evolution.

TriFan 600 Program Status

The TriFan 600 program has been paused. The underlying intellectual property and engineering work product are being preserved.

Whether and when development may resume will depend on a number of factors, including capital availability, market conditions for advanced air mobility, further maturation of core technologies of the TriFan 600, such as full autonomy capabilities, and the Company’s overall strategic priorities at the relevant time.

Autonomous Defense Systems (ADS)

The Company refers to this division as Autonomous Defense Systems, or ADS, a provisional designation. The division’s official name and branding have not yet been finalized and will be disclosed in a subsequent filing upon determination.

The ADS division is focused on the design, development, and production of unmanned platforms for defense and commercial applications, drawing on the engineering expertise and intellectual property developed through the Company’s prior aerospace program. The division’s capabilities span autonomous systems design, advanced propulsion, and airframe engineering. ADS pursues opportunities through internal development, strategic partnerships, and co-development arrangements, with an emphasis on defense procurement programs and domestic unmanned systems initiatives aligned with U.S. national security priorities.

As described above, the division substantially completed its organizational transformation in Q1 2026 following the appointment of new leadership and the acquisition of Drone Nerds. Additional information regarding the division’s official name, organizational structure, and specific strategic initiatives will be provided as those matters are finalized.

The ADS division has not yet generated any revenues. Its ability to generate revenues will depend on success in securing development contracts, partnerships, or procurement awards, all of which are subject to significant uncertainty. We are currently pursuing participation in five identified program opportunities with a combined potential R&D program value of approximately $147 million. If these development programs advance to production phases — which is subject to government procurement decisions, budgetary constraints, shifting defense priorities, program cancellations, competitive selection processes and other factors outside our control, and as to which there can be no assurance — and if we are able to develop the manufacturing capabilities necessary to meet resulting demand, we estimate the associated manufacturing opportunity could reach approximately $1.5 billion in the aggregate. These programs span potential customer agencies that include the U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Army, U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM), U.S. Air Force, U.S. Navy, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), and the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL). See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Business and Industries” for a discussion of the material risks associated with this division.

Advanced Technology and Manufacturing (ATM)

The Company refers to this division as Advanced Technology and Manufacturing, or ATM, a provisional designation. The division’s official name, organizational structure, and branding have not yet been finalized and will be disclosed in a subsequent filing upon determination.

The Advanced Technology and Manufacturing (ATM) division is expected to be led by Alex Williams, Ph.D., and is expected to be focused on developing and scaling U.S.-based production capabilities for unmanned systems, components, and related technologies. The division’s mandate will be to build a domestically sourced supply chain designed to support compliance with applicable federal procurement and sourcing requirements, including Section 848 of the National Defense Authorization Act for unmanned aerial systems — addressing the growing demand from federal agencies, defense contractors, and enterprise customers for drone platforms and components that meet Section 848 of the National Defense Authorization Act and satisfy applicable government procurement requirements for compliant UAS platforms and components.

Demand for compliant, domestically manufactured unmanned systems has accelerated as regulatory and procurement requirements around foreign-manufactured components have tightened. The Company believes this environment creates an opportunity to develop manufacturing relationships and capabilities that may support government and enterprise demand for compliant UAS platforms and components.

The division plans to pursue growth through manufacturing partnerships, co-development arrangements, targeted acquisitions of domestic production capacity, and strategic investments in U.S.-based technology and component suppliers.

The Company’s position as a distributor and aggregator of market intelligence across the unmanned systems industry is expected to provide the ATM division with an operational insight base that may support identifying manufacturing gaps, qualifying suppliers, and structuring partnerships that address the specific procurement and compliance requirements of defense and government customers.

The ATM division has not yet generated any revenues, and its activities are at an early stage of development. The division’s ability to generate revenues will depend on its success in establishing manufacturing partnerships on acceptable terms, securing National Defense Authorization Act (“NDAA”) -compliant production capacity, and converting that capacity into defensible customer relationships and contract awards — each of which is subject to significant uncertainty. There can be no assurance that manufacturing contracts and/or partnerships will be established on acceptable terms or that the division will generate revenues within the timeframe the Company anticipates.

Capital Strategy

XTI is executing a capital strategy designed to support disciplined growth, fund targeted acquisitions, and accelerate the development of its three operating divisions. The Company is working with its financial advisors to evaluate financing alternatives that optimize flexibility and preserve shareholder value.

Market

The commercial UAS market has experienced growth in recent years, driven by increasing adoption across enterprise verticals including agriculture, construction, infrastructure inspection, mining, insurance, energy and utilities, and public safety. Defense and government applications represent an additional and growing end market. The overall market remains fragmented, with no single provider holding a dominant position across all verticals and use cases.

The Company believes that consolidation among UAS distributors and solutions providers is likely as customers increasingly prefer vendors capable of providing integrated, multi-manufacturer solutions alongside training, maintenance, and lifecycle support. The Company’s strategy is designed to position the Company to participate in this trend, both through organic growth and through acquisitions. However, the pace and direction of industry consolidation are uncertain, and larger, better-capitalized competitors may consolidate more quickly or effectively than the Company.

Regulatory and procurement trends have generally been favorable for domestic UAS distributors and manufacturers. Restrictions on foreign-manufactured platforms in certain government procurement contexts, actions by the FAA and FCC relating to UAS operations and equipment authorization, and growing national security scrutiny of foreign-sourced unmanned systems, have all contributed to demand for compliant, U.S.-based solutions. These trends may benefit the Company, though regulatory requirements are subject to change and may also impose compliance costs or operational constraints on the Company and its customers.

The advanced air mobility market — the market the TriFan 600 program was originally designed to address — remains at an early stage of development. The Company does not generate revenues from advanced air mobility and has paused the active development of the TriFan 600 program. If the Company were to resume that program, its prospects would depend in part on the development of regulatory frameworks, infrastructure, and customer demand for advanced air mobility, none of which can be predicted with certainty.

The Company competes with other UAS distributors, value-added resellers, and solutions integrators, as well as directly with OEM manufacturers that sell through direct channels. Certain competitors are larger and have greater financial, technical, and marketing resources than the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully.

Products and Services

XTI delivers UAS solutions through its three operating divisions. The commercial drone solutions business is currently the primary operating division and source of revenues. The advanced systems and defense division and domestic manufacturing and technology division are in development and have not generated any revenues to date. Together, these divisions are designed to serve customers across the full UAS lifecycle — from initial platform selection and procurement through training, deployment, maintenance, fleet sustainment, and integrated mission solutions.

Commercial Drone Solutions – XTI Drones (Drone Nerds)

The Company’s commercial drone solutions business is conducted primarily through Drone Nerds. Drone Nerds provides UAS solutions through a combination of hardware distribution and service offerings, supporting a broad ecosystem of UAS manufacturers, payload and sensor providers, and software vendors.

The Company delivers solutions through wholesale distribution, direct sales, and direct-to-consumer retail channels. Wholesale revenue represents sales through resellers and channel partners serving enterprise, commercial, and governmental end customers. Direct sales represent sales to enterprise, commercial, and governmental customers that utilize drones as part of their operations. Retail revenue represents sales to consumer end users, including transactions at a retail showroom in South Florida and through an e-commerce platform. Enterprise, commercial, and governmental customers may also purchase through the e-commerce platform; such transactions are classified as direct sales based on customer type.

The Company serves customers across multiple end markets, including agriculture, construction, inspection, mining, insurance, security, energy and utilities, and public safety.

These activities generally include:

Platform and payload evaluation. The Company assesses new UAS platforms, payloads, sensors, batteries, communications systems, and related equipment to determine suitability for customer mission profiles and operational requirements.

Solution integration and enablement. The Company supports customers in deploying UAS solutions that may involve interoperability between platforms, payloads, software applications, fleet management systems, data processing tools, and customer workflows.

Training and program methodology development. The Company continuously refines training content and program enablement procedures to reflect evolving customer needs, safety practices, and regulatory requirements.

Service, repair, and sustainment capability development. The Company invests in improving diagnostics, repair procedures, maintenance workflows, parts logistics, and technician training to expand service offerings and reduce customer downtime.

Operational procedures and compliance support. XTI develops internal processes and operational playbooks designed to support enterprise deployment, including customer onboarding, fleet sustainment programs, and compliance management support.

The Company’s development efforts across all divisions are influenced by third-party product roadmaps, regulatory frameworks, certification requirements, and the commercial practices of OEM partners and software providers. Its ability to support certain solutions or expand related services may depend on the availability of products and continued cooperation from third parties.

Intellectual Property

The Company’s primary intellectual property assets prior to the Drone Nerds acquisition were developed through its former TriFan 600 manned VTOL aircraft program. The engineering work, design concepts, and technical development undertaken through that program generated a body of intellectual property, including proprietary aircraft design concepts, engineering work product, trade secrets, and other assets associated with VTOL and autonomous systems development. The Company seeks to protect these assets through a combination of patent filings, trade secret protections, confidentiality agreements, and internal information security controls. Patent protection, where pursued, may cover certain design elements, systems, or methods; however, the scope and duration of such protection are subject to examination and applicable law, and there can be no assurance that patent protection will be obtained or maintained.

XTI’s UAS distribution and services business relies primarily on brand assets, customer relationships, proprietary training materials, operational processes, repair methodologies, technical know-how, and service capabilities. The Company protects these assets through confidentiality agreements, intellectual property assignment provisions with employees and certain third parties, and contractual arrangements with suppliers and customers.

Because the XTI UAS business model is largely distribution, integration, training, and services-based, it does not rely primarily on owned patents for competitive differentiation. Instead, the Company’s competitive position depends on operational expertise, brand reputation, service infrastructure, and relationships with OEMs and customers. It also relies on intellectual property owned by third-party OEMs and software providers whose products the Company distributes or supports, and the Company’s ability to sell and service such products is subject to the terms of applicable distribution, dealer, and licensing agreements.

As described above under “Business Divisions — TriFan 600 Strategic Context and Organizational Evolution,” the Company paused the TriFan 600 program in 2026 and redirected the division’s resources toward unmanned systems development. The intellectual property developed through the TriFan 600 program remains an asset of the Company and is being preserved. The Company believes that certain underlying technologies — including work related to autonomous flight systems, advanced propulsion, and airframe design — are applicable to the unmanned systems development work now underway within the ADS division. As of the date of this filing, all expenditures associated with the former aircraft division are directed toward unmanned systems development and manufacturing programs.

Government Regulation

The XTI business is subject to a broad range of federal, state, local, and, in certain cases, international laws and regulations that affect the products it distributes, the services it provides, customer procurement decisions, and the ability of customers to deploy UAS platforms. Key regulatory and compliance areas include:

Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) regulation of UAS operations. UAS operations in the United States are subject to FAA rules governing operator certification, operational limitations, waiver processes — including for beyond visual line of sight (“BVLOS”) operations — remote identification requirements, and related safety and operational standards. The ongoing evolution of FAA rulemaking, particularly with respect to BVLOS operations and advanced air mobility, represents a material compliance consideration and may affect the timing and scope of broader enterprise and government deployment as expanded operational authorizations enable such deployment. In addition, if the Company were to resume development of the TriFan 600 or other manned or semi-autonomous aircraft, such programs would be subject to additional FAA certification requirements, which are complex, time-consuming, and uncertain.

Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) equipment authorization and communications requirements. Certain UAS platforms, payloads, and related communications equipment are subject to FCC equipment authorization and related technical requirements. Recent FCC actions related to national security concerns involving certain foreign-manufactured unmanned aircraft systems may affect the availability, eligibility, or timing of new product introductions into the U.S. market. In December 2025, the FCC added foreign-produced UAS and UAS critical components, on a going-forward basis, to the Covered List, which restricts new equipment authorizations for those systems in the United States and may accelerate customer demand for compliant domestic alternatives.

Government procurement, sourcing, and supply chain security requirements. Public sector customers may be subject to procurement restrictions, sourcing requirements, and supply chain security rules that affect platform eligibility, vendor qualification, and procurement timing. These requirements may evolve based on national security, cybersecurity, and data protection considerations. XTI’s OEM-agnostic, compliance-oriented distribution model is designed to support customers in navigating these requirements.

Export controls, sanctions, and trade compliance. Certain products, technologies, and customers may be subject to U.S. export controls, sanctions, and related trade compliance requirements, which may impose restrictions on sales activities, shipment destinations, end users, and product configurations.

Privacy, surveillance, and data regulation. UAS deployments may involve the collection, processing, storage, or transmission of imagery and other data. Customers and operators may be subject to privacy, surveillance, and data protection laws and regulations that influence adoption, operational policies, and compliance requirements.

The regulatory environment applicable to UAS distribution, operations, data use, and unmanned systems development continues to evolve. We monitor regulatory developments and adjust our compliance processes, supplier relationships, and customer support practices as appropriate to align with applicable requirements and procurement standards.

See Item 1C for information regarding the Company cybersecurity risk management, strategy, and governance.

Employees

The Company’s employees support UAS sales, marketing, repair and maintenance operations, training, customer support, and corporate functions, as well as engineering and program development activities within the advanced systems and domestic manufacturing divisions.

The Company initiated a workforce transition reflecting two developments: the 2025 acquisition of Drone Nerds, which added 82 employees to the Company’s headcount, and the 2026 strategic reorientation of the former XTI Aircraft division toward unmanned systems development. As part of that reorientation, the division’s workforce was restructured and new leadership and technical personnel were hired with experience in unmanned platform development, defense programs, and advanced manufacturing. These changes were partially offset by the transfer of 22 employees in connection with the divestiture of the Inpixon real-time location systems business.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had 105 employees, consisting of 96 full-time employees and 9 part-time employees. None of the Company’s employees are represented by a labor union or are party to a collective bargaining agreement. The Company has not experienced any work stoppages and considers its employee relations to be satisfactory.

Acquisition of Drone Nerds and Disposition of Inpixon Business

In November 2025, we completed the acquisition of Drone Nerds, LLC and Anzu Robotics, LLC (“Anzu”). Prior to the acquisition, Anzu was affiliated with Drone Nerds, LLC (then known as Drone Nerds, Inc.) through common ownership and its financial results were included in the historical audited financial statements of the Drone Nerds business. The acquisition represented a strategic shift in our operating focus toward enterprise and public sector UAS solutions.

Prior to the acquisition, Drone Nerds, LLC operated as a U.S.-based enterprise drone solutions provider offering hardware distribution, training, service and repair, and fleet support across multiple commercial and public sector verticals. Anzu operated within the broader Drone Nerds ecosystem and contributed additional UAS platform and product capabilities.

The transaction was structured as a purchase of the equity interests of Drone Nerds, LLC and Anzu. Consideration consisted of a combination of cash, promissory notes and equity, as further described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report. The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and the results of Drone Nerds have been included in our consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date.

We pursued the acquisition to establish a revenue-generating operating platform in the UAS market and diversify beyond development-stage aircraft activities.

Prior to the acquisition, our primary focus was the Inpixon Business and the development of the TriFan 600 VTOL aircraft program. Following the acquisition, our ongoing operations are centered primarily on UAS solutions and services.

Drone Nerds maintains enterprise sales capabilities, service and repair infrastructure, training programs, and logistics operations that enable end-to-end customer support. We believe this infrastructure provides a foundation for expansion into additional verticals and public sector channels.

Following closing, Drone Nerds, LLC and Anzu became our primary operating subsidiaries for UAS activities. We retained key operational leadership and began aligning reporting structures, corporate functions, and compliance processes across the combined organization.

The acquisition materially changed the composition of our business and revenue base. During December 2025, we actively explored strategic alternatives for the Inpixon Business, including engaging with potential buyers and evaluating a potential sale of the business. In February 2026, we completed the disposition of the Inpixon Business through the sale of all of the shares of Inpixon GmbH to an unrelated party. Our current operations are focused on UAS solutions and aerospace development.

●

We do not intend to pay cash dividends to our stockholders, so it is unlikely that stockholders will receive any return on their investment in our Company prior to selling our stock; and

●

Some provisions of Nevada law, our articles of incorporation and our bylaws may deter takeover attempts, which may inhibit a takeover that stockholders consider favorable and limit the opportunity of our stockholders to sell their shares at a favorable price.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industries

Our ability to continue funding our operations and execute our long-term development strategy depends on our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity and obtain additional capital over time.

Our operations have historically generated net losses and negative operating cash flows, and we have incurred significant cumulative losses since inception. Although we believe our current liquidity is sufficient to fund operations for at least the next twelve months, we will require additional capital over time to support the growth of our UAS distribution and services businesses via acquisitions and, if we decide to resume the TriFan 600 program, the continued development, certification and commercialization of the TriFan 600 aircraft. Because the TriFan 600 program is currently paused, our near-term capital needs are primarily driven by our UAS growth plan and the development of our unmanned systems and domestic manufacturing initiatives.

Our ability to obtain additional financing will depend on many factors, including market conditions, investor demand, our operating performance, and broader economic conditions. If we are unable to obtain additional capital when needed or on acceptable terms, we may be required to delay or scale back certain development programs, reduce operating expenditures, or modify our business strategy, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our UAS business operates in a rapidly evolving market and is subject to risks related to changes in technology, customer demand, regulatory developments and procurement requirements.

Drone Nerds’ drone, camera and sensor technologies and related software, training, operational support and repair services are sold in new and rapidly evolving markets. The commercial unmanned aerial vehicles (“UAV”) industry is in the early stages of customer adoption, and the FAA’s regulations relating to the integration of commercial drones into the U.S. National Airspace System continue to evolve. Accordingly, our UAS business and future prospects may be difficult to evaluate. We cannot accurately predict the extent to which demand for drone systems and solutions will increase, if at all.

The challenges, risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in rapidly evolving markets could impact our ability to:

●

Generate sufficient revenue to maintain historical profitability of Drone Nerds;

●

Acquire and maintain market share;

●

Achieve or manage growth in our business operations;

●

Renew customer contracts or maintain customer relationships;

●

Successfully stock, market and deliver commercial drone products and end-to-end solutions;

●

Adapt to new or changing policies, regulations and spending priorities of current and prospective clients; and

●

Access to additional financing or capital when required and on reasonable terms.

If we fail to address these and other challenges, risks and uncertainties successfully, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially harmed.

The distribution, sale, integration and operation of UAS are subject to extensive and evolving regulation by the FAA, the FCC, the Department of Commerce, the Department of War and other federal, state, local and foreign authorities. These regulations govern, among other things, airspace usage, remote identification, beyond visual line of sight (“BVLOS”) operations, operator certification, product authorizations, communications spectrum, importation, cybersecurity requirements and procurement eligibility for government customers. These regulations may require us to obtain, maintain and periodically renew certifications, waivers or operational authorizations in order to conduct certain types of drone operations, including operations beyond visual line of sight, nighttime operations, flights over people or operations in controlled or restricted airspace. If we are unable to obtain, maintain or renew required approvals or authorizations on commercially reasonable terms or within required timeframes, our ability to expand our services, enter new markets or maintain existing operations could be adversely affected.

Regulatory requirements applicable to UAS technology and operations continue to evolve and may become more restrictive. For example, new rules or interpretations relating to airspace access, operational waivers, remote ID compliance, data security, country-of-origin restrictions, or government procurement eligibility could limit the ability of our customers to deploy certain products or could restrict the products we are permitted to sell. In addition, certain customers may require additional certifications, security clearances or compliance with emerging federal or state procurement restrictions before purchasing UAS products or services.

If we or our suppliers are unable to obtain, maintain or renew required licenses, certifications or authorizations, or if regulatory changes restrict the use, sale or importation of certain drone platforms, components or related technologies, demand for our products and services could decline. Increased regulatory scrutiny, enforcement actions, or delays in regulatory approvals could also increase our compliance costs, disrupt our operations or adversely affect our reputation.

Any material changes in the regulatory framework governing UAS operations, or our failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our UAS business depends on relationships with key suppliers and manufacturers, and adverse regulatory developments or other disruptions affecting those suppliers could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Drone Nerds maintains relationships with various global suppliers of drones and related electronics. For the year ended December 31, 2025, purchases from its top three suppliers represented approximately 49%, 13% and 6% of total purchases, respectively. If any of these suppliers were to reduce or terminate their relationship with us, fail to supply products on commercially reasonable terms, or experience operational or regulatory disruptions, our ability to source products could be materially adversely affected.

Drone Nerds relies on SZ DJI Technology Co, Ltd. and affiliates (“DJI”) for a significant portion of its drone sales. In September 2025, Drone Nerds, LLC entered into a one-year agreement with DJI to serve as an official non-exclusive dealer of its products in the United States. DJI has been included on certain U.S. government watchlists relating to national security and data concerns.

In addition, the FCC and other U.S. government agencies have taken actions, including actions relating to the FCC’s Covered List and national security restrictions affecting certain foreign-manufactured unmanned aircraft systems and related components, that may affect the authorization, procurement, or use of certain drone platforms in the United States. These actions may limit manufacturers’ ability to obtain FCC equipment authorization for new products or product modifications, which could affect the ability to market or sell certain drone platforms or components in the United States.

Although existing FCC equipment authorizations for previously approved products generally remain valid, federal agencies may impose procurement restrictions, usage limitations, or other requirements affecting the deployment of such products. Regulatory actions, procurement bans, import restrictions, or heightened export-control or data-security scrutiny could reduce customer demand, limit participation in government-funded projects, or otherwise adversely affect sales of DJI-based systems.

If regulatory developments restrict DJI’s ability to sell products in the United States or limit customer use of such products or our agreement with DJI expires and is not renewed, we may be required to seek alternative suppliers, renegotiate supplier agreements, or incur transition costs. Our ability to diversify our supplier base may be limited, and there can be no assurance that alternative suppliers would be available on comparable terms, if at all. Any significant disruption in supply, reduction in product availability, or decline in customer demand could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our UAS operations also depend on the continued availability of critical components such as batteries, sensors, communications equipment, software platforms and replacement parts supplied by third-party manufacturers and vendors. Shortages of these components, quality control issues, transportation delays, trade restrictions, tariffs, geopolitical developments or financial distress affecting key suppliers could delay service delivery, increase operating costs or reduce operational capacity, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our UAS operations involve assembly, configuration, integration, repair and service activities that expose us to operational, quality and execution risks that could adversely affect our business.

Our UAS business includes activities such as assembling, configuring, integrating, testing, repairing and maintaining drone systems and related components for customers. These operational activities involve risks that differ from those associated with simple product distribution, including the risk of technician errors, quality control failures, equipment malfunctions, improper installation, delays in service delivery, and failures to meet customer specifications or performance expectations.

As our UAS operations grow, we may face challenges in scaling our service infrastructure, training and retaining qualified personnel, maintaining consistent quality standards, and managing workflow and inventory across multiple locations. Any operational or service failures could result in product returns, warranty claims, customer disputes, contract penalties, reputational harm, increased operating costs or reduced margins. In addition, defects or failures in products that we assemble, configure or service could expose us to liability claims or regulatory scrutiny.

If we are unable to manage these operational risks effectively, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

We may experience losses or reduced margins if we are unable to accurately forecast demand for UAS products or manage our inventory effectively.

Our business requires us to maintain inventory of drone platforms, components and related equipment in advance of customer demand. Demand for UAS products can be affected by regulatory changes, technological developments, seasonal purchasing patterns, government procurement cycles and macroeconomic conditions. If we overestimate demand, we may hold excess or obsolete inventory, incur storage and carrying costs, or be required to sell products at reduced prices. Conversely, if we underestimate demand, we may be unable to fulfill customer orders in a timely manner, resulting in lost sales and reduced customer satisfaction. Any significant mismatch between inventory levels and customer demand could materially adversely affect our gross margins, operating results and cash flows.

A significant portion of our UAS business involves the distribution, integration, servicing and support of products manufactured by third-party drone and sensor OEMs. Our ability to sell, service and support these products depends on maintaining strong commercial relationships with such manufacturers and complying with their distribution, pricing, branding, warranty and technical requirements.

Many OEMs control critical elements of the ecosystem in which their products operate, including firmware updates, cloud-based management platforms, software development kits (SDKs), application programming interfaces (APIs), parts availability, repair authorizations and technical documentation. Changes to these platforms, pricing structures, reseller programs, minimum purchase requirements, territory allocations, certification requirements or other OEM policies could:

●

reduce our margins;

●

limit our ability to access certain products or components;

●

restrict our ability to provide repair or support services;

●

delay product availability;

●

increase compliance or administrative costs; or

●

result in the termination or non-renewal of distribution or service agreements.

In addition, some OEMs may choose to sell directly to end customers, expand their own direct sales channels, consolidate distribution networks or favor larger or strategically aligned distributors. If any key OEM were to reduce our authorized reseller status, impose less favorable commercial terms, limit product allocations, or terminate our relationship, we may be unable to replace such products on comparable terms, or at all.

Our dependence on third-party platforms and OEM-controlled ecosystems reduces our control over product roadmaps, pricing, support policies and long-term availability. Any material disruption or deterioration in these relationships could have a material adverse effect on our UAS business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may be unable to effectively manage the growth and operational complexity of our expanding UAS distribution and services business.

Our recent growth and the expansion of our UAS operations have increased the complexity of our business and placed significant demands on our management, personnel, operational systems and infrastructure. Continued growth may require us to expand our workforce, warehouse capacity, service capabilities, information technology systems and internal controls. If we are unable to successfully manage these operational demands, maintain service quality, or integrate new personnel and processes effectively, our ability to fulfill customer orders, provide timely support services and maintain customer satisfaction could be adversely affected. Any failure to manage our growth effectively could result in operational inefficiencies, increased costs, service disruptions or reputational harm, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our UAS business requires us to maintain inventory, and we may incur losses due to excess inventory, obsolescence or changes in market demand.

Our UAS distribution and services business requires us to purchase, hold and manage inventory of drone platforms, components, accessories, replacement parts and related products. We must forecast customer demand, regulatory developments and technology trends when making inventory purchasing decisions. Because the UAS market is characterized by rapid technological change, evolving regulatory requirements and changing customer preferences, products we hold in inventory may become obsolete, subject to new restrictions, or less desirable before they are sold.

In addition, adverse regulatory developments, including changes to U.S. import restrictions, sanctions, FCC authorization requirements, NDAA compliance rules or other government procurement standards, could limit our ability to sell certain products we have already purchased. If we are required to discontinue or restrict sales of certain products, we may be required to write down or dispose of affected inventory at a loss.

We may also experience excess inventory levels if customer demand declines, orders are cancelled or delayed, suppliers introduce newer models, or macroeconomic conditions reduce purchasing activity. Any significant write-downs for excess or obsolete inventory would adversely affect our gross margins, operating results and financial condition.

Furthermore, if we are unable to accurately forecast demand or manage inventory effectively, we may experience shortages of high-demand products, which could result in lost sales and damage to customer relationships.

We may incur significant costs to honor warranties, provide service, repairs, maintenance and technical support for UAS products we distribute or service, and failures in these activities could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may incur costs to support warranties, provide service, repairs, maintenance and technical support for UAS products we distribute or service, and failures in these activities could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

A portion of our UAS business involves providing repair, maintenance and technical support services for the drone systems, sensors and related equipment we distribute. The products we sell are generally covered by manufacturer warranties. We do not typically provide standalone product warranties; however, certain product protection programs may be included with or offered in connection with product sales. We may also provide support, repair or other post-sale services to our customers, including facilitating warranty claims with manufacturers.

Although manufacturer warranties are generally the responsibility of the supplier, we may incur costs associated with providing service support, including labor, logistics and administrative expenses. We may also bear costs in situations where warranty coverage is disputed, delayed or otherwise not honored by the manufacturer. In addition, we may offer certain extended service or support arrangements in limited circumstances.

If we fail to meet customer expectations regarding service quality, response time or product performance, or if warranty claims are not resolved in a timely or satisfactory manner, we could experience customer dissatisfaction, reputational harm, loss of repeat business or increased costs, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Licenses and regulatory authorizations required for certain UAS products may be difficult to obtain in the future, which could adversely affect our ability to sell certain products.

Our drones and other electronic products require regulatory approvals and certifications, including FCC equipment authorizations, in order to be imported into the United States and sold to customers. Such approvals are typically obtained by the manufacturers of the products we distribute. If our suppliers are unable to obtain, maintain or renew required regulatory approvals, certifications or authorizations, or if such approvals are delayed, revoked, restricted or become subject to additional conditions, we may be unable to sell affected products. In addition, certain UAS operations may require operational approvals, waivers or authorizations from regulatory authorities, including approvals for operations beyond visual line of sight, nighttime operations or flights in controlled airspace. Delays in obtaining or maintaining such approvals could limit our ability to deploy services, expand into new markets or meet customer requirements.

In addition, changes in regulatory standards, heightened scrutiny of certain manufacturers, export control regulations, import restrictions or other governmental actions could limit the availability of certain drone platforms or components. If key products are restricted, delayed or removed from the market due to regulatory actions, our revenue, customer relationships and financial results could be materially adversely affected.

The nature of our UAS business and, to the extent we resume the TriFan 600 program, aircraft development activities involves significant risks and uncertainties, including product liability exposure, that may not be covered by insurance or indemnification.

Our UAS business and, to the extent we resume the TriFan 600 program, aircraft development activities involve significant operational and legal risks and uncertainties, and insurance or indemnification may not be available in all circumstances. We develop, distribute, service and support drones and other electronic products. As a result, claims could be brought against us if the use or misuse of one of the products we sell, service or develop causes, or merely appears to have caused, personal injury, death or property damage. In addition, defects, errors or failures in our products or services could lead to other potential life, health and property risks.

In our UAS operations, product liability risks may arise from equipment malfunctions, operator error, software failures, battery incidents, collisions or other operational incidents involving drones deployed by customers or service personnel. These incidents may result in personal injury, property damage, regulatory investigations, litigation or reputational harm. Because drone operations often occur in populated or industrial environments, even isolated incidents could lead to significant claims, increased insurance costs, operational restrictions or loss of customer confidence.

In addition, Drone Nerds has historically developed and sold products and services in circumstances where insurance or indemnification may be limited or unavailable, including in connection with the collection, processing and analysis of various types of information. Our UAS products and services may raise legal issues relating to privacy, data security, civil liberties, intellectual property, trespass, conversion and similar concepts, which may result in claims, regulatory scrutiny, enforcement actions or litigation.

Indemnification to cover potential claims or liabilities resulting from the failure of technologies we deploy may be available in certain circumstances but not in others. The uncrewed aerial systems industry continues to evolve, and insurance coverage for certain operational risks may be limited, unavailable, subject to significant exclusions, or prohibitively expensive. We may not be able to obtain or maintain product liability insurance or other insurance coverage in sufficient amounts, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, and any such insurance may not be adequate to cover all potential liabilities.

Substantial claims resulting from an accident, product failure, or personal injury or property liability arising from our products and services in excess of any indemnity or insurance coverage (or for which indemnity or insurance coverage is not available or is not obtained) could harm our financial condition, cash flows and operating results. Any accident, even if fully covered or insured, could negatively affect our reputation among our customers and the public and make it more difficult for us to compete effectively.

The growth of our UAS business depends on increasing sales to existing customers and obtaining new customers, which, if unsuccessful, could limit our financial performance.

Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to increase revenues from existing customers by identifying additional opportunities to sell more of our UAS products and services, including drone platforms, cameras, sensors, software, training, repair and operational support services, and on our ability to obtain new customers. The rate at which customers purchase additional products and services, and our ability to attract new customers, depends on a number of factors, including customer demand for UAS solutions, our ability to offer high-quality products and services at competitive prices, meeting customer needs and expectations, the strength of our competitors, the capabilities of our sales and marketing efforts, the availability of drone products from key suppliers, regulatory developments and general economic conditions.

If we are not able to continue to increase sales of our UAS products and services to existing customers or to obtain new customers in the future, we may not be able to increase our revenues and could suffer a decrease in revenues. In addition, certain customer demand may depend on government budgets, procurement cycles and contract awards, which are difficult to predict.

Our business may be dependent on a limited number of significant customers, and the loss of one or more such customers could adversely affect our operating results.

A portion of our revenues may be derived from a limited number of significant customers, and the importance of any individual customer may vary from period to period. The loss of a significant amount of business from one or more major customers, or a reduction in orders, could materially and adversely affect our results of operations until such time, if ever, as we are able to replace the lost business.

In addition, certain customers, including public sector and enterprise customers, may delay, reduce or cancel purchases due to budgetary constraints, procurement cycles, regulatory developments or changing operational priorities. To the extent that we are dependent on any significant customer, we are subject to the risks faced by that customer, including financial condition, funding availability and operational performance, which may impact the customer’s ability to make timely payments to us or continue purchasing our products and services.

If we are unable to collect our receivables in a timely manner, our liquidity, working capital and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our UAS business depends on our ability to successfully obtain payment from customers for products delivered and services performed. The timely collection of receivables is critical to generating cash flow, maintaining adequate working capital and supporting inventory purchases, operating expenses and debt service obligations.

Customers may delay or fail to pay invoices for a number of reasons, including financial difficulties, macroeconomic conditions, budgetary constraints, administrative or procurement delays, disputes regarding products or services, or bankruptcy proceedings. Certain customers, including public sector customers, may also be subject to extended payment cycles.

An extended delay or default in payment by significant customers could adversely affect our accounts receivable aging, reduce cash flow and impair our ability to meet working capital needs. In addition, because availability under our asset-based lending facility may be tied in part to eligible receivables, deterioration in receivables quality or collectability could reduce borrowing availability.

If we are unable to timely collect receivables for any reason, our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Defects, errors or vulnerabilities in the products we distribute, service or develop, or the failure of such products to perform as expected, could harm our reputation and adversely affect our results of operations.

The drone systems, sensors, software and related products we distribute and service are complex and may contain design defects, manufacturing defects, firmware or software errors, or security vulnerabilities that are not detected until after the products are sold or deployed by customers. In addition, products may fail to perform as expected due to component failures, integration issues, user error, or interoperability issues with third-party software, communications networks or payloads.

Certain drone platforms and connected devices may be vulnerable to cybersecurity threats, including unauthorized access, malware, spoofing, jamming or data interception. Because techniques used by malicious actors evolve rapidly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or ensure that products we sell or support will be able to adequately prevent or mitigate such threats.

Because many drone systems rely on wireless communications, remote control technologies and network connectivity to operate, cybersecurity incidents affecting these systems could disrupt flight operations, result in loss of control of aircraft, compromise operational or customer data, or expose us to liability under aviation safety, data protection or privacy laws and regulations.

In addition, errors in software updates, firmware updates or configuration changes could result in product malfunction, degraded performance, loss of data, reduced reliability or safety incidents. Any defects, errors or vulnerabilities in products we distribute, service or develop could result in:

●

expenditure of significant financial and operational resources to analyze, correct, replace or work around errors, defects or vulnerabilities;

●

delayed or lost revenue;

●

loss of existing or potential customers, suppliers or strategic partners;

●

increased warranty claims, returns, repair costs or service obligations, which could adversely affect gross margins;

●

product recalls, regulatory scrutiny, or restrictions on product sales; and

●

litigation, regulatory inquiries or investigations that may be costly and harm our reputation.

If we are unable to prevent, identify and address such defects, errors or vulnerabilities, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

If the UAS products and solutions we distribute and support do not effectively interoperate with our customers’ systems and operational requirements, deployments could be delayed or cancelled, which would harm our financial condition, operating results and growth prospects.

The UAS products and solutions we distribute and support must effectively interoperate with our customers’ existing systems, software platforms, communications networks, payloads, data processing tools and operational workflows. Customer environments often have different specifications, utilize multiple protocol standards, deploy products from multiple vendors, and contain multiple generations of equipment that have been added over time. As a result, when performance issues occur, it may be difficult to identify the source of the problem.

If the products we sell or support do not integrate effectively with customer systems or operational requirements, customers may experience reduced performance, delays in deployment, increased support requirements, or the inability to achieve expected mission outcomes. In such cases, customers may delay purchases, reduce order volumes or cancel orders, any of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, certain customers, particularly public sector, defense, and enterprise customers, may require products to comply with specific security, procurement, communications, data handling or other standards and certifications. If products we distribute are late in achieving, or fail to achieve, compliance with applicable certifications and standards, or competitors sooner achieve such compliance, we may be disqualified from selling to such customers or may otherwise be at a competitive disadvantage, which could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We have no guarantee of receiving government contracts, and our failure to do so would materially harm our revenues and growth prospects.

ADS intends to pursue contracts with the Department of War, federal agencies, and allied government customers. The award of government contracts is subject to competitive bidding processes, shifting procurement priorities, budget allocations, and administrative determinations that are entirely outside of our control. There is no assurance that ADS will be awarded any contract for which it competes, that any existing relationships we may develop with government personnel will translate into contract awards, or that contracts awarded will be renewed or extended upon expiration. If ADS is unable to secure government contract awards, it may be unable to generate revenues or achieve the growth objectives contemplated for this division, which would adverse affect our overall business and prospects. Government customers may also delay procurements, cancel solicitations, modify technical requirements, or award contracts in smaller quantities than anticipated, which could reduce expected revenues or delay program execution.

Government contracts are subject to termination for convenience, funding reductions, and regulatory changes that could eliminate anticipated revenues without recourse.

Even if ADS is successful in securing government contracts, such contracts may be terminated by the contracting agency at any time for convenience, without cause, and with limited compensation to the Company. Government appropriations are subject to annual congressional approval, continuing resolutions, sequestration, and other budgetary constraints that may reduce, delay, or eliminate funding for programs under which ADS operates. Changes in administration, defense policy priorities, or national security strategy may result in the cancellation or restructuring of programs in which ADS participates, regardless of performance or contractual obligations. In addition, government contracts may be modified, suspended, or terminated for default if we fail to comply with applicable contractual, regulatory, or performance requirements, which could result in actual or anticipated revenues being reduced or eliminated, and could subject us to financial penalties, repayment obligations, or reputational harm.

The defense procurement process is lengthy, unpredictable, and resource-intensive, and we may expend significant capital pursuing contracts that are never awarded.

Defense and government procurement cycles are complex and can span months or years from initial solicitation to contract award. ADS may be required to invest substantial financial, personnel, and technical resources in proposal development, demonstration activities, prototype builds, and compliance preparation — with no guarantee of award. Procurement decisions may be protested by competing bidders, resulting in further delays or reversals of awards. The mismatch between our cost of pursuit and the timing of potential contract revenue could strain our liquidity and divert resources from other strategic priorities. In addition, procurement terms, evaluation criteria, or customer requirements may change during the procurement process, requiring us to incur additional costs to remain competitive or compliant, with no assurance of award. Further, the failure to recover bid and proposal costs for unsuccessful procurements could adversely affect our financial condition, particularly if multiple large pursuits are unsuccessful or delayed.

We operate in a highly competitive market for autonomous unmanned systems, and many of our competitors have substantially greater resources, established relationships, and proven contract histories.

The market for autonomous unmanned aerial systems serving defense and government customers includes large, established defense primes, well-capitalized venture-backed startups, and foreign manufacturers with significant price advantages. Many of our competitors have decades-long relationships with defense procurement offices, existing IDIQ contract vehicles, cleared facilities and personnel, and proven platform histories that ADS has not yet established. Our ability to compete effectively will depend on our capacity to differentiate on technology, cost, compliance, and speed — none of which is assured in a market where incumbency and past performance carry significant procurement weight. In addition, certain competitors may benefit from government preferences, domestic sourcing requirements, or procurement frameworks that favor incumbent contractors or suppliers with established past performance records. Some competitors may also be able to devote substantially greater resources than we can to proposal development, testing, compliance, manufacturing scale-up, pricing concessions, and lobbying or business development efforts, which could place us at a competitive disadvantage.

Our autonomous systems may fail to meet evolving military performance, reliability, and interoperability requirements, which could disqualify us from contract competitions or result in contract termination.

Defense customers impose rigorous and evolving technical standards on autonomous platforms, including requirements related to system reliability, cybersecurity, communications interoperability, electromagnetic compatibility, and resistance to electronic warfare and GPS-denied environments. ADS’s systems may fail to meet these requirements during testing, evaluation, or fielded operations. Military standards and requirements can change between the time of proposal submission and contract award, and ADS may be required to undertake costly redesigns or modifications to remain competitive or compliant. Failure to satisfy technical requirements could disqualify ADS from competition or result in contract termination for default, with material adverse consequences. In addition, failures discovered after deployment or acceptance of systems could result in warranty claims, contractual penalties, or obligations to repair or replace systems at our expense. Such failures could also delay customer acceptance, impair our past performance record, give rise to indemnification obligations, or adversely affect our ability to compete for future contracts.

We may be unable to obtain or maintain the security clearances, certifications, and regulatory authorizations required to pursue and perform classified or sensitive government programs.

Many defense contracts require company personnel, facilities, and information systems to hold appropriate security clearances issued by the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency or other federal authorities. ADS may be unable to obtain necessary clearances in a timely manner, or at all, for key personnel or facilities. The denial, delay, suspension, or revocation of required clearances — whether due to adjudicative determinations, foreign ownership or control considerations, or other factors — could prevent ADS from competing for or performing on classified programs. Additionally, compliance with International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), Export Administration Regulations (EAR), and other export control regimes is complex and costly, and violations could result in debarment, fines, and reputational damage. Violations of export control, sanctions, or national security regulations may also result in suspension or debarment from government contracting, civil or criminal penalties, or restrictions on our ability to export products or technology. Compliance with clearance, export control, and related national security requirements may also require us to implement costly policies, procedures, and system controls, and any failure to do so adequately could adversely affect our ability to compete for and perform sensitive programs.

We are subject to the risk that changes in U.S. defense spending, budget sequestration, or shifts in national security priorities will reduce or eliminate the market for our products and services.

ADS’s revenue prospects are directly dependent on the level of U.S. government spending on autonomous unmanned systems, which is in turn subject to federal budget negotiations, congressional appropriations, and executive branch policy determinations. Reductions in defense spending, shifts in strategic priority toward or away from unmanned systems, or the consolidation of procurement programs could materially reduce the addressable market for ADS’s products. The Company has no ability to influence federal budget decisions, and our financial projections may prove incorrect if assumed levels of government investment in autonomous systems are not sustained. In addition, delays in appropriations legislation, government shutdowns, or changes in defense acquisition strategies could disrupt procurement timelines and delay contract awards. Because our expected ADS revenues may be concentrated in a limited number of programs or customers, any such delays, reductions, or cancellations could have a disproportionate adverse effect on this business unit.

We may rely on teaming arrangements and subcontracts with prime contractors whose decisions and performance are outside of our control and who may become our competitors.

ADS may pursue government contracts as a subcontractor or teaming partner to larger defense prime contractors. In these arrangements, the prime contractor retains control over proposal strategy, pricing, scope allocation, and the customer relationship. To the extent we secure these types of arrangements, prime contractors may reduce our workshare, replace us with alternative subcontractors, terminate teaming arrangements without cause, or develop competing internal capabilities using knowledge gained through our collaboration. Our revenues from such arrangements would be contingent on the prime contractor’s continued selection for and performance under the prime contract, over which we have no direct control. In addition, disputes with prime contractors regarding performance, pricing, intellectual property rights, or contract interpretation could result in reduced revenue, litigation, or termination of subcontract relationships. In certain cases, our rights against a prime contractor may be limited by the terms of the applicable subcontract or teaming agreement, and we may have little or no direct recourse against the government customer.

Our ability to scale ADS operations is dependent on recruiting and retaining personnel with specialized expertise in autonomous systems, defense engineering, and government program management — talent that is in high demand and limited supply.

The development, integration, and support of autonomous unmanned systems requires specialized talent in areas including autonomy software, embedded systems engineering, signals intelligence, RF communications, systems integration, and government program management. Competition for this talent among defense primes, technology companies, and government agencies is intense. ADS may be unable to attract or retain the personnel necessary to execute its development programs and contract obligations in a timely and cost-effective manner. The loss of key technical or program management personnel could delay development programs, impair contract performance, and damage our standing with government customers, with material adverse effects on our business and prospects. In addition, certain government programs may require personnel with security clearances or specialized certifications, which may further limit the available talent pool and increase hiring and retention costs. Any inability to recruit, retain, or replace such personnel on acceptable terms could also delay contract execution, increase labor costs, or impair our ability to satisfy customer requirements.

The TriFan 600 aircraft program has been paused, and if resumed, may never achieve certification, commercial production or market acceptance.

In 2026, we paused the TriFan 600 aircraft program and redirected the division’s resources toward unmanned systems development. We are preserving the underlying intellectual property and engineering work product, but we have not made a final determination to abandon the program. If the TriFan 600 program is resumed, the development, certification and commercialization of advanced aircraft is a complex, costly and time-consuming process, and there can be no assurance that we will successfully complete development, obtain required regulatory approvals or achieve commercial production.

We will not generate revenues from the sale of aircraft without successfully resuming active development of the TriFan 600, securing FAA type certification, and completing production readiness activities, each of which involves substantial risk and uncertainty. The TriFan 600 program is currently paused, and any resumption will require significant additional capital. There can be no assurance that such capital will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

The strategic reorientation of our former XTI Aircraft division toward unmanned systems development introduces significant new execution risks.

In 2026, following the acquisition of Drone Nerds, the Company paused active development phase of the TriFan 600 manned VTOL aircraft program and redirected the former XTI Aircraft division, now operating as XTIA Autonomous Defense Systems (the “ADS division”), toward the design and development of unmanned platforms for defense and commercial applications. The TriFan 600 program has been paused, and the Company has not made a final determination to abandon it. However, there can be no assurance that the program will be resumed, or that, if resumed, it will achieve FAA certification, reach commercial production, or generate revenues.

The ADS division is in an early stage of development and has not generated revenues. Its ability to generate revenues will depend on its success in securing development contracts, government procurement awards, or commercial partnerships, none of which are assured. The division faces significant competition from established defense contractors and unmanned systems developers with substantially greater resources, experience, and existing customer relationships. There can be no assurance that the ADS division will successfully develop marketable products, secure contracts, or generate revenues on the timeline anticipated, or at all.

The reorientation of the former XTI Aircraft division also introduces execution risks, including the challenge of recruiting and retaining additional personnel with specialized unmanned systems experience, the difficulty of competing for defense procurement awards as a relatively new entrant, and the risk that the engineering expertise developed through the TriFan 600 program may not translate directly into commercially viable unmanned systems products. These risks, individually or in combination, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

In addition, we have devoted significant financial and engineering resources to the TriFan 600 program, and if the program is not resumed, we may not realize a return on those investments.

While our current operations are primarily focused on our UAS solutions business, if we resume the TriFan 600 program, the program will be subject to significant development, certification, and financing risks. Any resumption of active TriFan 600 development could divert management attention and financial resources from our UAS operations and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The TriFan 600 aircraft program has been paused. To the extent we decide to resume the program, certification by the FAA will be required for the sale of the TriFan 600 in the civil or commercial market in the United States. The process to obtain such certification is expensive and time consuming and has inherent engineering risks. These include (but are not limited to) ground test risks such as structural strength and fatigue resistance, and structural flutter modes. Flight test risks include (but are not limited to) stability and handling over the desired center-of-gravity range, performance extremes (stalls, balked-landing climb, single-engine climb), and flutter control effectiveness (aircraft roll effectiveness, controllability, various control failure safety). We cannot predict whether or when the TriFan 600 program will be resumed, and until it is, these certification risks are contingent on a future decision to re-engage the program. Any decision to resume the TriFan 600 program would require substantial additional capital and a commitment of engineering and management resources. Any resumption-related costs, delays or adverse developments could divert management attention and financial resources from our UAS operations, limit our ability to invest in the growth, staffing or expansion of our UAS business, or otherwise disrupt the execution of our operating strategy. These impacts could adversely affect our ability to meet customer demand, maintain service levels, or pursue new business opportunities in our UAS operations, and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Customer orders and service engagements for our UAS products and services and the pre-orders we have received for our aircraft may be non-binding, conditional or written expressions of interest and may be terminated at any time prior to execution of a definitive agreement, and cancellations, modifications or delays could materially adversely affect our business, liquidity and cash flows.

Customer orders, project-based engagements and service arrangements for our UAS products and services may be non-binding, subject to change, or dependent on customer budgets, project timing, regulatory approvals or operational needs. Customers may delay, reduce or cancel planned purchases or service engagements with little or no advance notice. Such changes could result in fluctuations in demand, inventory levels, workforce utilization and revenue, and could adversely affect our ability to plan operations, manage costs and maintain margins. Any cancellation, modification or delay in customer orders or service engagements could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We previously operated a pre-sales program for the TriFan 600 aircraft under which we received refundable deposits equal to approximately $1,350,000. The TriFan 600 program is currently paused. Deposits are refundable upon customer request, and customers are not obligated to purchase an aircraft or to enter into a binding purchase agreement. We expect to return deposits to customers who request a refund in accordance with the terms of the applicable customer agreements, and any such returns would reduce our available cash.

Our drone operations may be adversely affected by weather conditions and other environmental factors beyond our control.

Drone operations are subject to weather-related and environmental limitations, including high winds, precipitation, temperature extremes, reduced visibility and other conditions that may prevent or delay safe flight operations. Adverse weather conditions or environmental disruptions could delay project completion, increase operating costs, reduce operational efficiency or limit our ability to meet customer expectations.

In addition, severe weather events, natural disasters or other environmental disruptions could temporarily suspend operations in affected regions or reduce demand for our services, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We operate in highly competitive markets characterized by rapid technological change, and we may be required to reduce prices or modify our offerings to remain competitive, which could adversely affect our results of operations.

We operate in highly competitive markets in both the UAS and the aerospace industries, which are characterized by rapid technological innovation, evolving customer requirements, changing industry standards and frequent introductions of new products, product enhancements, software capabilities and distribution models. Many of our current and potential competitors are well-established, have or may have longer-standing relationships with customers and potential business partners, have or may have greater name recognition, and have or may have access to significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources.

In our UAS business, we face significant competition from drone manufacturers that sell directly to customers, other distributors and resellers, systems integrators and service providers. In addition, advancements in drone platforms, sensors, batteries, communications systems, autonomy, artificial intelligence and data processing technologies may quickly render existing products less competitive or obsolete. Our ability to remain competitive depends in part on our relationships with key suppliers and our ability to timely introduce new products and services that reflect current technology trends, customer requirements and regulatory developments.

To the extent we resume our TriFan 600 aircraft program, such program potentially competes with a variety of aircraft manufacturers in the United States and abroad. We could face competition from competitors of whom we are not aware that have developed or are developing technologies that will offer alternatives to the TriFan 600. Competitors could develop an aircraft that renders the TriFan 600 less competitive than we believe it would become. Other manufacturers may be developing a light, fixed-wing VTOL aircraft with performance similar to that of the TriFan 600.

Similarly, if we resume the program, the development of the TriFan 600 would require the successful integration of advanced propulsion, avionics, software and control systems. Technological challenges, evolving certification requirements or competitor advancements could require redesign, additional investment or changes to our development roadmap.

Competitive pressures may result in pricing pressure, reduced margins, and the need to increase sales and marketing expenditures. As a result, we may be required to reduce the prices of certain products and services we sell, offer more favorable terms, or increase promotional activity to remain competitive. If we are not able to maintain favorable pricing, successfully differentiate our offerings, or achieve sufficient gross margins, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

If we are unable to obtain and maintain adequate facilities and infrastructure, we may be unable to effectively store, service, repair and distribute UAS products or develop and manufacture our products as our business grows.

In order to support our UAS operations, including maintaining adequate warehouse space, service and repair facilities, logistics infrastructure and inventory management systems, and, if the TriFan 600 program is resumed, to develop and manufacture our aircraft, we must be able to obtain and maintain adequate facilities and infrastructure. While we believe our current facilities are adequate for our present level of operations, as our UAS business grows, we may be required to expand or upgrade these facilities and systems. Any inability to secure suitable facilities on commercially reasonable terms, disruptions at our service or warehouse locations, or failure to effectively manage inventory and repair operations could adversely affect our ability to fulfill customer orders, provide timely service and support, and maintain customer relationships, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Moreover, if the TriFan 600 program is resumed and the aircraft reaches commercial production, the aircraft would require ongoing maintenance and support, the costs and frequency of which are uncertain. There can be no assurance that the program will be resumed or that the aircraft will reach commercial production.

Our UAS operations depend on trained drone operators, technicians and other qualified personnel, and competition for such personnel is significant. If the TriFan 600 program is resumed, pilot and mechanic availability could affect the commercialization of the aircraft.

Our UAS operations rely on trained drone operators, technicians, repair personnel and other skilled employees, including individuals holding FAA Part 107 certifications and other applicable credentials. Competition for qualified personnel in the UAS industry is significant and may increase as adoption of drone technology expands. If we are unable to attract, train and retain qualified personnel in sufficient numbers, our ability to grow our UAS business, provide timely service and support, and execute our strategic plans could be adversely affected.

If and when the TriFan 600 program is resumed and the aircraft approaches commercialization, a shortage of pilots and qualified aviation mechanics could adversely affect demand for the aircraft and the Company’s ability to support customers. There is an existing shortage of pilots in the broader aviation industry, and trained aviation mechanics are also in limited supply. If these conditions persist at the time the TriFan 600 program is resumed, they may reduce our ability to sell aircraft at scale or operate on the timelines we project at that time.

UAS Operations

Our UAS operations depend on the timely availability of drone platforms, payloads, batteries, components and related products from third-party manufacturers. Disruptions in global supply chains, shipping delays, manufacturing constraints, tariff or trade restrictions, or other supplier-related issues could reduce product availability, increase costs, delay customer deliveries, and adversely affect our ability to maintain adequate inventory levels. Because our current operations are primarily focused on our UAS distribution, service and solutions business, disruptions affecting our suppliers, logistics providers or product availability could have an immediate impact on our revenue, customer relationships and service operations. Any such disruptions could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, to the extent we assemble, configure, integrate, test, repair or otherwise prepare UAS products and related components for sale or customer deployment, we may be exposed to manufacturing and production execution risks. These risks include quality control issues, defects in assembly or integration, equipment malfunctions, production inefficiencies, delays in scaling operations, and failures to meet customer specifications or delivery schedules. Any such issues could result in product returns, warranty claims, customer disputes, reputational harm, increased operating costs or reduced margins, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

TriFan 600

If the TriFan 600 program is resumed, we would intend to produce the TriFan 600 using systems, components and parts developed and manufactured by third-party suppliers. This supply chain exposes us to multiple potential sources of delivery failure or component shortages for our aircraft, most of which are out of our control. Such suppliers may be subject to additional risks such as financial problems that limit their ability to conduct their operations. If any of these third parties experience difficulties, it could have a direct negative impact on us.

While we believe that we may be able to establish alternate supply relationships and can obtain replacement components if the program is resumed, we may be unable to do so in the short term or at all at prices that are acceptable to us or may need to recertify components, which could increase costs or delay development timelines.

If we needed to find alternative suppliers for any key components, then this could increase our costs and adversely affect our ability to receive such components on a timely basis, or at all, which could cause significant delays if we resume the program in the development, certification or commercialization of our aircraft and adversely affect our relationships with customers.

Our research and development efforts may not produce successful products or capabilities that result in significant revenue, cost savings or other benefits.

Developing new UAS solutions, software capabilities, service offerings and related product enhancements, as well as advanced unmanned systems and related technologies, including in our ADS division, is expensive, time-consuming and subject to significant technical, operational and regulatory uncertainty. Investments in research and development may not result in successful designs, marketable products, improved performance or other anticipated benefits, and may take longer than expected to achieve technical milestones. In addition, development efforts may result in products or capabilities that are more expensive than anticipated or that do not meet customer requirements or may not be adopted by customers at the levels we expect.

Our UAS business requires ongoing investments in evaluating new drone platforms, payload technologies, software tools and service capabilities, as well as developing customized solutions for customers in specialized industries. Our ADS division is in an early stage of development and has not generated revenues, and its ability to generate revenues will depend on its success in developing commercially viable products, securing development contracts or partnerships, and achieving customer acceptance, none of which are assured. These efforts may require significant upfront expenditures for equipment, training, testing, inventory and technical personnel, and may not generate sufficient demand or revenue to justify those investments.

Our future plans include continued investments in research and development with respect to our UAS solutions business and the development of capabilities within our ADS division. We believe we must continue to dedicate significant resources to these efforts to maintain a competitive position and advance our UAS offerings. However, we may not receive significant revenue from these investments in the near future, if at all, and these investments may not yield the expected benefits. In addition, to the extent we determine to resume the TriFan 600 program in the future, such efforts would require substantial additional investment and may not result in commercially viable products or generate revenues. If we do not realize the anticipated returns from our research and development efforts, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

If we do not adequately protect our intellectual property rights, we may experience a loss of revenue and our operations and growth prospects may be materially harmed.

Our UAS business relies on a combination of trademarks, trade secrets, proprietary software, customer relationships, training content, service and repair capabilities, technical workflows, and other proprietary know-how. We may not be able to prevent third parties, including competitors, former employees, contractors, or business partners, from misappropriating or replicating aspects of our business model, training programs, service processes, software tools or customer solutions. In addition, competitors or former personnel may attempt to replicate our operational methods, service offerings or customer relationships without infringing on registered intellectual property rights. Any failure to protect our intellectual property and proprietary information could reduce our competitive advantages and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company holds patents for the TriFan 600 issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office and in various foreign jurisdictions, and may seek additional patent protection in connection with the TriFan 600 program or other technologies developed through the ADS division. The process of obtaining patent protection is expensive and time-consuming, and we may not be able to prosecute all necessary or desirable patent applications at a reasonable cost or in a timely manner. Even if issued, there can be no assurance that these patents will adequately protect our intellectual property, as the legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of protection of patent and intellectual property rights are complex, uncertain and subject to change. There is no guarantee that any court will rule in our favor in the event of a dispute related to our intellectual property.

The TriFan 600 program has been paused, and the primary near-term value of the associated intellectual property lies in its potential applicability to unmanned systems development within our ADS division. During the period in which the program is paused, third parties — including potential competitors — may develop technologies that are equal or superior to our TriFan 600-related intellectual property, design around our existing patents, or independently develop similar technologies without infringing our rights. If the TriFan 600 program is ultimately resumed, the competitive value of our existing patents and other intellectual property may be diminished as a result of developments that occurred during the pause. Any failure to adequately protect our intellectual property could adversely affect our ability to commercialize the TriFan 600 or related technologies, and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Certain proprietary software and related technology used in our UAS operations and, to the extent applicable, in connection with our ADS division’s development activities, is protected by common law copyright rather than registered copyright. We have not registered copyrights on proprietary software we have developed. Common law protection may be narrower than registered copyright protection. As a result, we may experience difficulty enforcing our copyrights against third-party infringement. As part of our confidentiality procedures, we enter into agreements with employees and consultants and limit access to and distribution of our software, documentation and other proprietary information. There can be no assurance that these measures will prevent misappropriation or that such agreements will be enforceable. The laws of other countries may afford us little or no protection of our intellectual property. Our inability to protect our intellectual property rights could adversely affect our financial condition, operating results and growth prospects.

We also rely on a variety of technology that we license from third parties in connection with our UAS operations. There can be no assurance that these third party technology licenses will continue to be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. The loss of or inability to maintain or obtain upgrades to any of these technology licenses could result in delays in completing software enhancements and new development until equivalent technology could be identified, licensed or developed and integrated. Any such delays would materially and adversely affect our business.

Our ability to use net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes may be limited.

We have generated net operating losses (“NOLs”) and other tax attributes that may be available to offset future taxable income. However, our ability to utilize these tax attributes may be limited under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) if we experience an “ownership change.”

In general, an ownership change occurs when there is a greater than 50 percentage point change in the ownership of a corporation’s stock by certain stockholders over a rolling three-year period. We may have experienced ownership changes in the past, including in connection with business combinations, equity financings, preferred stock issuances, conversions, exchanges, or other transactions, and may experience ownership changes in the future as a result of subsequent shifts in our stock ownership, some of which may be outside our control.

If an ownership change occurs, our ability to utilize our pre-change NOLs and other tax attributes, including research and development tax credits, to offset future taxable income and taxes could be subject to significant annual limitations. Similar provisions of state tax law may also apply.

As a result, even if we achieve profitability, we may be unable to use a material portion of our NOLs and other tax attributes, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may enter into joint venture, teaming and other arrangements, and these activities involve risks and uncertainties, and a failure of any such relationship could have material adverse results on our business and results of operations.

We may enter into joint venture, teaming and other arrangements including strategic partnerships, supplier arrangements, dealer relationships, distribution agreements, and other commercial relationships. These activities involve risks and uncertainties, including the risk of the joint venture or applicable entity failing to satisfy its obligations, which may result in certain liabilities to us for guarantees and other commitments, the challenges in achieving strategic objectives and expected benefits of the business arrangement, the risk of conflicts arising between us and our partners and the difficulty of managing and resolving such conflicts, and the difficulty of managing or otherwise monitoring such business arrangements.

In addition, our business plans, including our UAS operations, depend in part on relationships with third parties, including suppliers, manufacturers, service providers and other strategic partners. Moreover, existing or future arrangements may contain limitations on our ability to enter into arrangements with other partners. A failure of our business relationships could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

We are subject to risks associated with climate change, including the potential increased impacts of severe weather events on our operations and infrastructure, and market and regulatory trends relating to sustainability and emissions reduction may not evolve as expected.

The potential physical effects of climate change, such as increased frequency and severity of high wind conditions, storms, floods, fires, fog, mist, freezing conditions, sea-level rise and other climate-related events, could affect our operations, infrastructure and financial results. Climate change risks could result in, but are not limited to, operational risk from the physical effect of climate events on our facilities, distribution and service infrastructure, and other assets, as well as supply chain disruptions affecting the availability and cost of components and products that we distribute or use in our development activities. We could incur significant costs to improve resiliency of our infrastructure and operations and otherwise prepare for, respond to, and mitigate such physical effects of climate change. We are not able to accurately predict the materiality of any potential losses or costs associated with the physical effects of climate change.

In addition to physical risks, climate change presents transition risks, including evolving regulatory requirements, increased monitoring and disclosure requirements, and changing market preferences. A number of governments globally have introduced, or are considering introducing, climate change legislation and policies at the international, national, state and local levels. Regulation relating to emission levels, energy efficiency and sustainability is evolving and may influence purchasing decisions in the aviation and UAS markets. Certain aspects of our business strategy, including the positioning of our UAS solutions and the development of the TriFan 600, may benefit from regulatory or market preferences for more fuel-efficient or lower-emission technologies. However, market and regulatory trends may not evolve in the direction or within the timing we anticipate. Changes in political priorities, economic conditions, energy prices, or public policy could reduce the emphasis on emissions reduction or sustainability initiatives. If regulatory incentives are reduced, delayed, or eliminated, or if customers place less importance on sustainability considerations when making purchasing decisions, demand for our products could be adversely affected, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Investors’ expectations and regulatory requirements relating to environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) matters may impose additional costs and expose us to new risks.

There is increasing focus from investors, employees, customers, regulators and other stakeholders concerning corporate responsibility and ESG matters. Some investors may use these non-financial performance factors to guide their investment strategies and, in some cases, may choose not to invest in us if they believe our policies, disclosures or actions relating to ESG matters are inadequate or inconsistent with their expectations.

The growing demand for measurement and disclosure of non-financial performance has led to evolving reporting standards, regulatory requirements and third-party sustainability assessments and ratings with respect to public companies. The criteria by which our ESG practices are assessed may change over time due to shifts in regulatory frameworks, market expectations or industry standards, which could require us to undertake additional compliance efforts, incur increased costs, or modify our practices.

In addition, if we elect not to, or are unable to, satisfy evolving ESG-related expectations or regulatory requirements, or if our ESG-related disclosures are challenged, we could face reputational harm, reduced investor interest, increased scrutiny or potential litigation. Conversely, certain stakeholders may oppose ESG initiatives or disclosures, which could also create reputational or other risks. Any of these factors could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Insurance and contractual protections may not cover product liability, operational claims, lost revenue, increased expenses or liquidated damages, which could adversely affect our financial results.

Although we maintain insurance and seek to obtain warranties, indemnities and performance guarantees from suppliers and subcontractors, and where feasible attempt to allocate risks contractually to customers or other counterparties, the proceeds of such insurance or the protections provided by such contractual arrangements may not be adequate to cover potential claims, losses, liabilities or damages.

We may be subject to product liability and other claims arising in the ordinary course of our business, including claims related to the distribution, servicing, repair or development of drone systems, related components and software, and, in the future, aircraft we may manufacture or sell. Such claims may involve allegations of design defects, manufacturing defects, component failures, software errors, improper installation, inadequate warnings or instructions, misuse of products, personal injury, death or property damage. In some jurisdictions, strict liability may be imposed even in the absence of negligence.

In addition, we may face claims for breach of contract, warranty obligations, indemnification demands, liquidated damages, operational failures, delays in delivery, or other performance-related matters. Our contractual protections may be limited by exclusions, caps, deductibles, insolvency of counterparties or other limitations, and we may be unable to enforce such protections in certain circumstances.

Insurance coverage for certain operational, product-related and aviation risks may be limited, unavailable, subject to significant exclusions, or increasingly expensive. There can be no assurance that our current insurance coverage will be available in the future on commercially reasonable terms or at all, or that coverage limits will be sufficient to protect us against all potential claims. Even if we believe a claim is covered, insurers may dispute coverage.

A successful claim or claims brought against us in excess of available insurance coverage or contractual protections, or for which such protections are unavailable, could result in significant liabilities, require us to expend substantial resources, and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Any significant incident or claim, even if insured, could also adversely affect our reputation and customer relationships.

The ongoing impact of geopolitical conflicts, including the Russia-Ukraine conflict and conflicts in the Middle East, may adversely affect our business, operations and financial condition.

Geopolitical conflicts, including the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the conflicts in the Middle East, including the Israel-Hamas conflict and related regional tensions involving Iran and other parties, may increase the likelihood of global supply chain disruptions, inflationary pressures, higher energy and transportation costs, and volatility in financial markets. These developments could adversely affect the availability and cost of drone platforms, components and other products we sell, as well as materials, components and services required for our aircraft development program.

In addition, the continuation or escalation of these conflicts could result in additional economic sanctions, export controls, import restrictions, disruptions to global shipping routes, including in the Red Sea and surrounding regions, and other governmental actions that could disrupt international trade, limit product availability, increase costs, and adversely affect customer demand. These events may also contribute to heightened cybersecurity threats. The overall impact of these developments remains uncertain, and any of the foregoing could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business is subject to U.S. and foreign trade compliance, sanctions, import/export and anti-corruption laws, and violations of these laws or changes in their application could harm our business.

Although we are primarily a U.S.-based company, our UAS distribution and services business relies on a global supply chain, including suppliers and manufacturers located in Europe and Asia. As a result, we are subject to various U.S. and foreign laws and regulations relating to international trade and business conduct, including customs and import regulations, export controls, economic sanctions, embargoes, licensing requirements, and anti-corruption laws such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) and similar laws in other jurisdictions.

These laws and regulations are complex, frequently changing, and may be subject to inconsistent interpretation and enforcement. Compliance requires significant management attention and resources, and any failure to maintain effective compliance programs, controls, training and oversight could expose us to liability.

We may engage third-party suppliers, distributors, freight forwarders, customs brokers, consultants, resellers, or service providers in connection with sourcing and distributing UAS products. We may not be able to fully control the actions of such third parties. Any violation of applicable anti-corruption, sanctions, import/export or trade compliance laws by us, our employees or third parties acting on our behalf could result in significant fines, penalties, reputational harm, loss of import or export privileges, seizure or detention of shipments, restrictions on our ability to sell certain products, increased compliance costs, and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operation.

In addition, changes in sanctions programs, export control regimes, import restrictions or licensing requirements could limit the availability of products we distribute, restrict certain customers or end markets, delay shipments, or otherwise disrupt our operations.

Changes in U.S. administrative policy, including tariffs, import restrictions, trade agreements and other trade measures, could adversely affect our supply chain economics and financial performance.

Our UAS distribution and services business relies on a global supply chain and a significant portion of the products and components we distribute are manufactured outside the United States, including in China and other parts of Asia and Europe. As a result, our business is sensitive to changes in U.S. and foreign government administrative policy, including changes to trade agreements, the imposition of new tariffs, increases in existing tariffs, import restrictions, retaliatory measures by foreign governments, and other actions affecting global trade.

Tariffs and other trade restrictions may increase the costs of the products we distribute, disrupt product availability, delay shipments, or require us to source products from alternative suppliers at higher prices or on less favorable terms. If we are unable to pass such cost increases through to customers, our margins could be reduced. Even if we are able to increase pricing, higher costs may reduce customer demand, particularly in price-sensitive segments of the UAS market.

In addition, uncertainty regarding the timing, scope and duration of tariffs and related trade measures may make it more difficult for us to forecast costs, manage inventory, plan purchasing decisions, and maintain consistent pricing. Any of these factors could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations

Difficult conditions in the global economy and capital markets may materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and access to capital.

Our business is affected by conditions in the global economy and financial markets. Economic uncertainty, slower growth, recessionary conditions, sustained inflation, higher interest rates, reduced availability of credit, banking instability, geopolitical tensions or other macroeconomic disruptions could negatively affect customer purchasing behavior, government budgets, and enterprise capital spending.

Demand for our UAS products and services and, in the future, aircraft we may develop, may be sensitive to general economic conditions. Customers may delay or reduce purchases, seek lower-cost alternatives, renegotiate pricing, reduce order quantities, or extend payment terms during periods of economic uncertainty. Reduced customer spending could adversely affect our revenues and profitability.

Inflationary pressures may increase our costs of labor, components, logistics, warehousing, insurance and other operating expenses. Although we may attempt to pass through increased costs to customers, we may not be able to do so in a timely manner or at all, which could reduce our margins. In addition, higher interest rates may increase our borrowing costs under existing or future credit facilities and may adversely affect our ability to access capital on favorable terms.

Volatility in equity and credit markets may also impair our ability to raise additional capital when needed, including to fund strategic acquisitions, development initiatives, or other capital-intensive programs or aircraft development efforts. If we are unable to access capital markets or secure financing on acceptable terms, our liquidity and ability to execute our business strategy could be materially adversely affected.

Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We have a history of losses, and in order to successfully execute our business plan, including strategic acquisitions and the development of our advanced systems and domestic manufacturing initiatives, we will need to raise additional capital through additional debt or equity financing, which may otherwise not be available on reasonable terms or at all.

We have incurred net losses in recent periods and have an accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2025. These and prior losses have resulted in significant negative cash flows. Our ability to execute our business plan depends on attaining and maintaining profitable operations in our UAS business and other operations and raising additional capital as needed, including for strategic acquisitions and the development of our advanced systems and domestic manufacturing initiatives. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise additional financing.

Our ability to execute our business plan depends on our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations and/or obtain additional debt or equity financing. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital when needed, we may be required to delay, reduce or terminate certain operations or development programs.

We have historically funded our operations through a combination of equity offerings, preferred equity issuances, convertible instruments, related party financing arrangements, and secured and unsecured debt. In November 2025, we issued shares of Series 10 Convertible Preferred Stock in a private placement transaction, which were subsequently converted in January 2026 into shares of our common stock and a pre-funded warrant. The issuance and conversion of these securities have resulted, and future exercises or exchanges of outstanding securities may result, in dilution to our existing stockholders.

In connection with our acquisition of Drone Nerds, we issued equity interests that are exchangeable into shares of our common stock. The exchange of such equity interests and the exercise of outstanding warrants could result in additional dilution and increased volatility in the market price of our common stock.

We have also entered into an asset-based revolving credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to support the working capital needs of our UAS operations. Borrowings under this facility are subject to a borrowing base formula and are secured by substantially all of the assets of the applicable borrowers. The facility contains customary covenants and events of default. If borrowing availability is reduced or if we fail to comply with the covenants under this facility, our liquidity could be adversely affected. Upon an event of default, the lender may accelerate amounts outstanding and exercise remedies against the collateral securing the facility.

In addition, to the extent that we are unable to pay our obligations under our credit facilities, related party notes, or other indebtedness, and such obligations are secured, the applicable lender or noteholder could exercise remedies against the collateral securing such obligations, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our existing and future indebtedness may limit our ability to obtain additional financing, incur additional debt, or pursue strategic transactions. The combined effect of our operating losses, capital requirements, outstanding convertible and exchangeable securities, and secured credit arrangements may adversely affect our financial flexibility and our ability to execute our long-term strategy.

Our asset-based revolving credit facility contains borrowing base limitations, financial and operational covenants, and is secured by substantially all of the assets of our UAS operations, and any default could materially adversely affect our liquidity and operations.

Drone Nerds, LLC and Anzu Robotics, LLC recently entered into a secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Facility”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to support the working capital needs of our UAS operations. The amount available for borrowing under the ABL Facility is subject to a borrowing base formula, which is based primarily on a percentage of eligible accounts receivable and inventory, subject to applicable advance rates and reserves.

Because availability under the ABL Facility depends on the value of eligible collateral, our borrowing capacity may fluctuate from time to time as a result of changes in our accounts receivable, inventory levels, customer payment patterns, seasonality, credit concentrations, or the imposition of discretionary reserves by the lender. If our eligible collateral decreases or if additional reserves are established, the amount available for borrowing could be reduced, which could adversely affect our liquidity.

The credit agreement governing the ABL Facility contains affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants limiting the ability of the borrowers to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, make certain investments, pay dividends, engage in certain mergers or asset sales, or enter into certain transactions. The credit agreement also requires the borrowers to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio as of the end of any calendar month, that is no less than 1.0 to 1.0, subject to certain cure rights. The credit agreement also contains customary events of default that include, among other things, certain payment defaults, cross defaults to other material indebtedness, covenant defaults, the occurrence of a change in control, unsatisfied judgments over a threshold, and certain bankruptcy events.

The ABL Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of the applicable borrowers and guarantors, including accounts receivable, inventory, deposit accounts and other assets. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lender may, among other remedies, accelerate all outstanding obligations, terminate lending commitments, increase the interest rate, and exercise remedies against the collateral securing the facility. The exercise of such remedies could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Any inability to access funds under the ABL Facility when needed, any reduction in borrowing availability, or any default under the ABL Facility could materially adversely affect our ability to fund working capital, inventory purchases, growth initiatives, and ongoing operations.

We may be unable to repay the Notes issued in connection with the Drone Nerds acquisition.

In connection with the acquisition of Drone Nerds, XTI Drones Holdings issued a promissory note to the Drone Nerds, LLC seller in the original principal amount of approximately $11 million and a promissory note to the Anzu Robotics, LLC seller in the original principal amount of approximately $1 million (the “Notes”). The Company made the initial required principal and interest payments under the Notes in November 2025. The remaining outstanding principal and accrued interest under the Notes are payable in scheduled installments through 2026, with all remaining amounts due on or prior to the applicable maturity date.

Interest accrues on the outstanding principal balance of each Note at an annual rate of 7.25%. Our failure to pay principal or interest when due will constitute an event of default under the applicable Note. Upon the occurrence of an event of default (other than certain bankruptcy-related events), the holder may declare the entire unpaid balance of principal and accrued but unpaid interest immediately due and payable and may exercise other rights and remedies available under the Notes or applicable law. Upon the occurrence of certain bankruptcy-related events of default, the outstanding principal and accrued interest will become automatically due and payable. Following the occurrence of an event of default, interest will accrue at an increased rate.

In addition, under the terms of the Notes, if we complete one or more capital raises resulting in aggregate gross proceeds of $40 million or more following issuance of the Notes, we may be required to repay all outstanding amounts under the Notes, subject to certain limitations. Any such required repayment could reduce our available working capital and adversely affect our ability to execute our business plan. The availability and use of proceeds from any such financing may also be subject to restrictions under our asset-based revolving credit facility, which could limit our ability to apply such proceeds toward repayment of the Notes.

We may not have sufficient cash on hand or be able to obtain additional financing to satisfy amounts due under the Notes when required. The Notes include provisions that could result in the acceleration of amounts owed, including upon the occurrence of an event of default or, in certain circumstances, following specified capital raising activities. If amounts under the Notes were accelerated or otherwise became due earlier than expected, we may be required to repay such amounts on an accelerated basis, which could reduce our available liquidity. If we are unable to meet our obligations under the Notes, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

We may not be able to successfully integrate the business and operations of Drone Nerds or other entities that we have acquired or may acquire in the future, and we may not realize the intended benefits of these acquisitions. In addition, we may be exposed to unanticipated liabilities or risks arising from the historic operations of acquired businesses, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are in the process of integrating the operations of Drone Nerds into our business, and this process involves complex operational, technological and personnel-related challenges, which are time-consuming and expensive and may disrupt our ongoing business operations. Integration involves a number of risks, including, but not limited to:

●

the possibility that the purchase price we pay and/or unanticipated costs could significantly deplete our cash reserves or result in dilution to our existing stockholders;

●

difficulties or complications in combining the companies’ operations, especially if we enter a market with no or limited prior experience;

●

differences in controls, procedures and policies, regulatory standards and business cultures among the combined companies;

●

the diversion of management’s attention from our ongoing core business operations;

●

increased exposure to certain governmental regulations and compliance requirements;

●

the potential increase in operating costs;

●

the potential loss of key personnel;

●

the potential loss of key customers or suppliers who choose not to do business with the combined business and the possibility that we may not be able to expand the reach and customer base for the acquired companies’ current and future products as expected;

●

the possibility that certain liabilities, including contingent or unanticipated liabilities, related to the acquired companies’ prior operations may not be covered by insurance, indemnification provisions or other contractual protections;

●

difficulties or delays in consolidating the acquired companies’ technology platforms, including implementing systems designed to maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting for the combined company and enable the Company to continue to comply with U.S. GAAP and applicable U.S. securities laws and regulations;

●

unanticipated costs to successfully integrate operations, technologies, personnel of acquired businesses and other assumed contingent liabilities;

●

difficulty comparing financial reports due to differing financial and/or internal reporting systems;

●

making any necessary modifications to internal financial control standards to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder;

●

the possibility that goodwill and other intangible assets we acquire are subject to amortization or impairment tests, which could result in future charges to earnings, or that the carrying amounts of goodwill and other purchased intangible assets may not be recoverable; and/or

●

possible write-offs, restructuring charges, tax costs or inefficiencies associated with integrating the operations of the combined company.

These risks could prevent us from successfully integrating Drone Nerds and any other businesses we may acquire and could cause us to not fully realize the anticipated financial, revenue synergies and/or other strategic benefits of the Drone Nerds acquisition or future acquisitions when expected, or at all, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We have completed several strategic transactions, including acquisitions and dispositions, which may make it difficult for investors to evaluate our business and prospects, and future acquisitions or dispositions could disrupt our business and harm our financial condition or operating results.

We have historically pursued a strategy involving acquisitions, divestitures and other strategic transactions. Over time, we have acquired and divested multiple businesses, including our recent acquisition of Drone Nerds and disposition of our former Inpixon Business operations. As a result of these transactions, our business has evolved significantly, and our historical financial results may not be indicative of our future performance.

Frequent changes to our business portfolio, including acquisitions, divestitures, spin-offs and other strategic transactions, may make it difficult for investors to evaluate our current business, financial condition and prospects. In addition, our limited operating history following recent strategic transactions may limit investors’ ability to assess trends in our business and operating results.

Any future acquisitions or dispositions of assets or businesses could disrupt our operations, divert management’s attention, result in the loss of key personnel or customers, create additional regulatory or contractual obligations, or expose us to unforeseen liabilities. Dispositions may also result in the loss of revenue streams or tax attributes and may not achieve the anticipated financial or strategic benefits. There can be no assurance that any future acquisition or disposition will enhance stockholder value or improve our operating results, and such transactions may instead materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

As required by current accounting standards, we review goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually, and we evaluate long-lived assets, including definite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The risk of impairment to goodwill is generally higher during the early years following an acquisition because the difference between the carrying value of a reporting unit and its fair value may be relatively small. Until this difference increases over time due to business growth or reductions in the carrying value of the reporting unit, a relatively small decrease in fair value could trigger impairment charges.

Our business could be adversely affected, and impairment charges could be triggered, if any of the following were to occur: higher attrition rates than planned as a result of the competitive environment or our inability to provide products and services that are competitive in the marketplace, lower-than-planned customer adoption rates, higher-than-expected expense levels, sustained declines in our stock price and related market capitalization, adverse changes in macroeconomic conditions, or changes in our business model.

We may record impairment charges in the future if the carrying value of our remaining goodwill or intangible assets exceeds their estimated fair value or is otherwise determined to be unrecoverable.

We may make strategic investments in early-stage companies or technologies that fail to generate returns or result in significant losses or impairment charges.

From time to time, we may make strategic investments in early-stage companies, emerging technologies, or development-stage ventures that we believe may be complementary to our business strategy or that may offer potential long-term value to our operations. These investments are speculative in nature and involve significant risks. Early-stage companies typically have limited operating histories, no or minimal revenues, unproven technologies, and significant dependence on future financing that may not be available on acceptable terms or at all. The value of these investments may be difficult to assess at the time of investment, and our due diligence, which is inherently limited by the availability of information and the early-stage nature of such companies, may not identify all material risks associated with a potential investee.

We may be required to record credit losses, impairment charges, or write-downs against the carrying value of these investments in accordance with applicable accounting standards if the financial condition or prospects of an investee deteriorate, if collection of contractual cash flows becomes uncertain, or if the fair value of an investment declines below its carrying amount. Such charges could be material and could occur within a short period following the date of investment. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we recorded a full credit loss allowance of approximately $2.0 million against a convertible promissory note investment made in October 2025, reflecting our determination that collection of substantially all contractual cash flows was not expected at that time based on the investee’s limited operating history and dependence on future financing.

Our ability to recover value from strategic investments will depend on factors largely outside of our control, including the investee’s ability to execute its business plan, secure additional financing, develop its technology, and ultimately achieve commercial viability. There can be no assurance that any strategic investment we make will generate returns, preserve capital, or provide the strategic benefits we anticipate at the time of investment. Losses on strategic investments could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows, and could divert management attention and resources that might otherwise be devoted to our core business operations.

The success of our business and our ability to execute our strategic plans depend on our ability to attract, retain, train, integrate and motivate highly skilled employees, including personnel who have joined or may join us in connection with acquisitions. Our UAS distribution and services business requires personnel with specialized skills in engineering, software, sales, training, repair and maintenance services, technology integration and regulatory compliance. In addition, our aircraft development program requires highly specialized aerospace engineering and technical expertise, including experience in certification and regulatory processes.

Competition for qualified engineering, aviation, regulatory, technology and sales personnel is intense, and identifying and recruiting candidates with the appropriate qualifications can be costly and time-consuming. We may not be able to hire the personnel necessary to implement our business strategy in a timely manner, or we may be required to offer higher compensation or additional incentives than anticipated. Industry turnover rates for certain skilled positions are high, and we may not be successful in retaining, training or motivating our employees.

Our success also depends to a significant extent upon the continued services, experience and performance of our executive officers and other key personnel. The loss of one or more members of senior management or other key technical, operational or sales personnel could disrupt our operations, delay aircraft development and certification efforts, impair customer or supplier relationships, or otherwise adversely affect our business. Given the specialized nature of aerospace engineering, regulatory certification expertise and drone technology distribution and support, qualified replacements may be difficult to identify and recruit in a timely manner or at all. While certain key personnel are employed pursuant to employment agreements, there can be no assurance that we will be able to retain their services. We do not maintain “key person” life insurance on the lives of any of our executive officers.

Any inability to attract, retain, integrate or motivate skilled personnel, or the unexpected loss of key personnel, could impair our ability to manage operations, fulfill customer orders and service engagements, expand our UAS operations, advance the TriFan 600 program, and execute our strategic plans. Such challenges could increase our costs, reduce profitability, delay initiatives, harm our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we were deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, applicable restrictions could make it impractical for us to continue our business as contemplated.

Under Sections 3(a)(1)(A) and (C) of the 1940 Act, a company generally will be deemed to be an “investment company” for purposes of the 1940 Act if (1) it is, or holds itself out as being, engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities or (2) it engages, or proposes to engage, in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities and it owns or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of the value of its total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. Although we have made certain strategic investments in the past and may from time to time hold significant cash or investment securities, including following strategic transactions, we do not currently believe that we are an “investment company,” as such term is defined in either of those sections of the 1940 Act.

We intend to conduct our operations so that we will not be deemed an investment company. However, if we were to be deemed an investment company, restrictions imposed by the 1940 Act, including limitations on our capital structure and our ability to transact with affiliates, could make it impractical for us to continue our business as contemplated and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may be subject to claims that we or our employees have wrongfully used or disclosed alleged trade secrets of their former employers.

We may be subject to claims that the Company or our employees, including employees who joined us in connection with acquisitions, may have inadvertently or otherwise used or disclosed trade secrets or other proprietary information of former employers or competitors. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these claims. We may be subject to unexpected claims of infringement of third-party intellectual property rights, either for intellectual property rights of which we are not aware, or for which we believe are invalid or narrower in scope than the accusing party. Even if we are successful in defending against these claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to management. If we fail in defending such claims, in addition to paying money claims, we may lose valuable intellectual property rights or personnel or be enjoined from selling certain products or providing certain services. A loss of key research personnel or their work product could hamper or prevent our ability to commercialize certain products, which could severely harm our business.

We have been and may in the future be subject to government or regulatory investigations or inquiries and may be required to comply with requests for information by regulators, and any resulting enforcement action could have a materially adverse effect on us.

As a publicly trading reporting company with operations in the United States and internationally, we interact regularly with regulatory and self-regulatory agencies in the United States or other jurisdictions in which we operate, including the SEC and the Nasdaq Stock Market. In addition, our operations may be subject to regulation by other governmental agencies, including agencies involved in aviation, UAS, communications, procurement and trade compliance.

We have been and may in the future be the subject of SEC and other regulatory investigations and may be required to comply with informal or formal orders or other requests for information or documentation from such government authorities and regulators regarding our compliance with national, regional and local laws and regulations, including the rules and regulations under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Such laws and regulations and their interpretation and applications may also change from time to time.

Responding to requests for information from regulators in connection with any such investigations or inquiries could have a materially adverse effect on our business through, among other things, significantly increased legal fees and the time and attention required of the Company’s management and employees to be diverted from our normal business operations and growth plans. Moreover, if a regulator were to initiate an enforcement action against us, any such action could further consume our resources, require us to change our business practices and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Adverse judgments or settlements in legal proceedings could materially harm our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.

We may be a party to claims that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business, including claims related to our products, securities offerings, contracts and subcontracts, protection of confidential information or trade secrets, adversary proceedings arising from customer bankruptcies, employment matters, immigration requirements, and compliance with various state and federal statutes, rules and regulations applicable to our business.

For example, in February 2026, the State of Texas filed a petition in the District Court of Collin County, Texas, against Anzu Robotics, LLC (“Anzu”) alleging that Anzu violated the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act (the “DTPA”) in connection with the marketing and sale of its drone products. The State contends, among other things, that Anzu misrepresented certain characteristics, origins, and security features of its products and failed to disclose certain alleged material facts relating to the products’ development and components and Anzu’s alleged business relationship with DJI. The State seeks temporary and permanent injunctive relief, civil penalties of up to $10,000 per violation of the DTPA and up to an additional $250,000 if the conduct was calculated to deprive a consumer age 65 or older of money or property, and attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company is engaged in discussions with the Texas Attorney General to attempt to resolve the matter cooperatively.

In addition, we are currently involved in litigation relating to the XTI Merger. In December 2023, Xeriant, Inc. filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against Legacy XTI and others, asserting claims including breach of contract, fraud, unjust enrichment and misappropriation of confidential information relating to certain prior agreements and the TriFan 600 program. The complaint has since been amended, and the matter is currently proceeding under a Third Amended Complaint filed in December 2025. Xeriant seeks monetary damages, injunctive and other equitable relief. Legacy XTI has asserted counterclaims and continues to vigorously defend against the claims. The litigation is ongoing and in active discovery.

In addition, in May 2025, Auctus Fund, LLC filed a lawsuit against Legacy XTI in Colorado state court alleging breach of contract relating to an alleged obligation to repay indebtedness originally issued by Xeriant. The plaintiff seeks repayment of principal and accrued interest in an amount approaching $9 million. Legacy XTI disputes the claims and is defending the action.

The outcome of the foregoing matters cannot presently be predicted, and an adverse determination in any of these matters could have a material impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Regardless of the merits of any particular claim, responding to litigation may divert management’s time and attention, result in significant legal expenses, and expose us to monetary damages, penalties or injunctive relief. Litigation and other legal proceedings are inherently uncertain, and adverse judgments or settlements could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Even if a claim is fully indemnified or insured, such litigation could damage our reputation and make it more difficult to compete effectively or obtain adequate insurance in the future.

Furthermore, while we maintain insurance for certain potential liabilities, such insurance does not cover all types and amounts of potential liabilities and is subject to exclusions, deductibles and caps. Insurers may dispute coverage, which may affect the timing or availability of insurance proceeds. Unexpected outcomes in legal proceedings, or changes in management’s evaluation of the likely outcomes, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We rely on key information technology systems and third-party cloud service providers, and any disruption, failure, or degradation of these systems could adversely affect our operations and financial results.

Our business depends on the reliable operation of our information technology systems and networks, including systems used for financial reporting, inventory management, procurement, order processing, customer relationship management, communications, and other core business functions. In addition, portions of our operations rely on third-party service providers, including cloud-based hosting, data storage, enterprise software platforms, communications providers, and other outsourced technology services.

Any failure, interruption, degradation, or other disruption of our internal systems or those of our third-party service providers—whether due to power outages, telecommunications failures, software bugs, human error, natural disasters, system capacity constraints, acts of terrorism, geopolitical events, vendor outages, or other events beyond our control—could impair our ability to operate effectively. Such disruptions could, among other things, delay order fulfillment, disrupt inventory tracking, impair our ability to provide repair, maintenance or support services, prevent access to critical business records, delay billing and collections, and adversely affect our ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements.

We may not be able to promptly restore our systems or the systems of our third-party service providers in the event of a disruption, and we may not have adequate redundancy, disaster recovery, or business continuity capabilities for all critical systems. In addition, third-party providers may experience operational or financial difficulties, may change their service offerings or pricing, may discontinue services, or may impose contractual limitations on remedies or liability. Any of these outcomes could increase our operating costs, harm customer relationships, and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Digital threats such as cyber-attacks, data protection breaches, computer viruses or malware affecting our systems, our customers’ systems or cloud-based services could result in liability for us, damage our reputation or otherwise harm our business.

Despite our implementation of network security measures, the products and services we sell to customers, and our servers, data centers and cloud-based solutions on which our data and the data of our customers, suppliers and business partners are stored, are vulnerable to cyber-attacks, data protection breaches, computer viruses, ransomware, malicious acts and similar disruptions resulting from unauthorized access, human error or other causes.

Our UAS distribution and support operations involve the sale and servicing of drones, cameras, sensors and related software that may collect, transmit, store or process sensitive operational, geospatial or customer data. In addition, our aircraft development activities may involve proprietary engineering data and regulated technical information. Any compromise of such data, whether through attacks on our systems, third-party service providers, suppliers or customers, could result in regulatory scrutiny, contractual liability, litigation, reputational harm and loss of customer confidence.

Some components of our technology and systems, including third-party software and open-source software, may contain vulnerabilities that are difficult to detect and correct. Although we seek to maintain appropriate security controls, no system is completely secure. Any breach of our systems, or of cloud-based services provided by or enabled by us, regardless of whether the breach is attributable to a vulnerability in our products or services, could subject us to liability to customers or other third parties, result in significant remediation costs, disrupt operations, and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Efforts to prevent or mitigate cyber incidents may be costly and may not be successful. In addition, evolving data protection and cybersecurity laws and regulatory requirements may increase compliance costs and potential exposure in the event of a security incident.

We are required to maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports filed with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by SEC rules and forms.

Our ability to maintain effective controls is subject to a number of risks and challenges, including, among other things, the complexity of our corporate structure, the integration of acquired businesses, the transition of financial reporting systems and processes, changes in accounting standards, the need to implement and maintain controls over new or evolving business operations, and the continued hiring and retention of personnel with appropriate accounting, finance and compliance expertise.

In particular, we have completed significant strategic transactions in recent periods, including the XTI Merger and the Drone Nerds acquisition, and we expect to continue integrating financial reporting processes, accounting policies, information systems and internal controls across these businesses. These integration activities may increase the risk of control deficiencies, including the risk that we may not be able to timely implement or maintain consistent accounting policies, procedures and systems, or that we may not be able to effectively remediate any deficiencies that are identified.

If we identify material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results, prevent fraud, or timely file our periodic reports with the SEC. In addition, any failure to maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures or ICFR could result in errors in our financial statements, restatements of our financial results, delayed SEC filings, or the loss of investor confidence in our reported financial information. Any of these outcomes could adversely affect our stock price, our ability to access the capital markets, our relationships with lenders and business partners, and our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business and operations expose us to numerous legal and regulatory requirements, including privacy, cybersecurity, surveillance, anti-corruption, trade compliance, import/export and other laws, and violations of these requirements could harm our business. In addition, our operations and supply chain expose us to geopolitical, economic and other risks associated with international business.

We are subject to numerous U.S. federal, state and foreign legal and regulatory requirements, including laws relating to aviation and UAS operations, data privacy and protection, employment and labor relations, immigration, taxation, anti-corruption, import and export controls, trade restrictions, sanctions, internal control and disclosure obligations, securities regulation and competition laws. Compliance with diverse and evolving legal requirements is costly, time-consuming and requires significant management attention and resources.

Violations of these requirements in the conduct of our business could result in significant fines, penalties, civil damages, criminal sanctions, restrictions on our operations, loss of licenses or certifications, reputational harm or other adverse consequences. Violations of regulatory requirements or contractual compliance obligations in connection with customer contracts, particularly public sector contracts, could also result in monetary damages, termination rights, suspension or debarment from government programs and other adverse outcomes.

Although our principal operations are in the United States, our supply chain and certain customer relationships expose us to international risks. Our business may be affected by changes in geopolitical conditions, international trade policies, tariffs, sanctions, export controls, foreign exchange controls and other regulatory developments. Certain of the products we distribute are sourced from international suppliers and may be subject to evolving U.S. government restrictions or security reviews. Changes in such laws or policies could disrupt product availability, increase costs or limit our ability to sell certain products.

We and our business partners may also be subject to risks including:

●

restrictions on the import or export of certain technologies or products;

●

changing or conflicting international trade regulations;

●

currency fluctuations;

●

longer payment cycles or restrictions on repatriation of funds;

●

political instability or regional conflicts;

●

public health crises;

●

natural disasters or infrastructure disruptions; and

●

general economic or political volatility.

Any of the foregoing risks could result in supply chain disruptions, increased costs, production delays, reduced demand, regulatory investigations or other business interruptions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Domestic and foreign regulation and enforcement of data privacy, cybersecurity, surveillance and data tracking technologies is expansive, broadly defined and rapidly evolving, and compliance with such regulation could result in additional costs and liabilities, restrict portions of our business, constrain our customers’ use of our products and services or limit the growth of our markets. Any actual or perceived failure by us to comply with data privacy regulations could result in proceedings, investigations, enforcement actions or penalties against us.

Federal, state, municipal and foreign governments and agencies have adopted, and may in the future adopt, modify, interpret or enforce laws, regulations and policies governing privacy, data security, cybersecurity, geolocation data, biometric data, surveillance technologies, and the collection, storage, use, processing, transfer and disclosure of data associated with individuals. The scope of data regulated under these laws is often broadly defined, continues to evolve, and is subject to new applications and interpretations by regulators. As a result, we may be subject to investigations, audits, enforcement actions, litigation, fines, penalties or other liabilities if our data practices, cybersecurity measures, contractual terms, or the products and services we provide are alleged to violate applicable laws or regulatory expectations.

Our UAS business distributes and supports drones, cameras, sensors and related software, and provides training, operational support and repair services. These products and services are frequently used by customers in ways that involve the collection, transmission, storage or analysis of data, including video, imagery, mapping data, telemetry and other operational information. Even where we do not control how customers deploy or use these technologies, we may face reputational, commercial or legal risk based on the end-use of the products we sell or service, including if our customers’ use of drones or related technologies is alleged to violate privacy laws, surveillance restrictions, data security requirements, or civil liberties laws. In addition, certain of our customers, including governmental and public-sector customers, may impose heightened contractual requirements relating to data security, cybersecurity, compliance certifications, or restrictions on the use of foreign-manufactured products, and failure to satisfy these requirements could limit our ability to compete for or retain business.

In the United States, privacy and data security regulation includes laws and regulations enforced by the Federal Trade Commission and state attorneys general, as well as a growing number of state privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CCPA/CPRA”), and similar laws in other states. In addition, international laws and regulations, including the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), may apply to certain of our activities depending on the nature and location of our customers, suppliers and business partners. These laws may impose obligations relating to disclosures, consent, data retention, data subject rights, cybersecurity safeguards, incident response, and restrictions on cross-border data transfers. Compliance with these requirements may require us to implement additional technical, administrative and operational measures, modify our product and service offerings, or incur increased legal, compliance and cybersecurity costs. Furthermore, any actual or perceived failure by us to comply with applicable data privacy laws or regulations could result in governmental investigations, enforcement actions, administrative proceedings, civil litigation, fines, penalties, consent decrees, or other sanctions.

The regulatory environment relating to privacy, cybersecurity, surveillance technologies, and unmanned aircraft systems is rapidly evolving and remains uncertain. If new laws, regulations, or enforcement actions restrict the use of drones or related technologies in certain jurisdictions, or if customers become more reluctant to deploy such technologies due to privacy or security concerns, demand for our products and services could be reduced. Any of the foregoing could materially adversely affect our business, reputation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Misuse of our products could harm our reputation and result in litigation, regulatory enforcement actions or reduced demand for our products and services.

Our products and services, including drones, cameras, sensors, related software, training, and operational support services, may be misused by customers or third parties. For example, drones and related imaging technologies may be used in ways that violate privacy, surveillance, trespass, data protection, export control, or other laws, or in ways that are perceived as unethical or harmful, even where such use is outside of our control and not authorized by us. In addition, the data generated by drones, cameras, sensors, and other connected technologies may be combined with other information in ways that could increase privacy or security risks. Misuse of these products or data could result in negative press coverage, reputational harm, reduced customer demand, increased scrutiny by regulators, and the loss of business relationships.

Certain of our customers may use our products and services in regulated environments, including public safety, critical infrastructure, and governmental operations, which may be subject to heightened legal requirements and public scrutiny. In some cases, we may rely on customers to implement required policies, permissions, notices, and safeguards, including those related to privacy and data protection. If we or our customers fail to comply with applicable laws, contractual requirements, or regulatory standards, we could be subject to litigation, regulatory investigations, enforcement actions, fines, penalties, or other liabilities, and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Risks Related to Our Securities

Our common stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “XTIA.” The listing standards of Nasdaq provide that a company, in order to qualify for continued listing, must maintain a minimum stock price of $1.00 and satisfy standards relative to minimum stockholders’ equity, minimum market value of publicly held shares and various additional requirements. While our common stock is currently listed on Nasdaq, we can give no assurance that we will be able to maintain compliance with the continued listing requirements for Nasdaq. If we fail to maintain compliance with any such continued listing requirement, there can also be no assurance that we will be able to regain compliance with any such continued listing requirement in the future or that our common stock will not be delisted in the future. If Nasdaq delists our securities from trading on its exchange for failure to meet the listing standards, we and our stockholders could face significant negative consequences including:

●

limited availability of market quotations for our securities;

●

a determination that the common stock is a “penny stock” which would require brokers trading in the common stock to adhere to more stringent rules, possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for shares of common stock;

●

a limited amount of analyst coverage, if any; and

●

a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

Delisting from Nasdaq could also result in other negative consequences, including the potential loss of confidence by suppliers, customers and employees, the loss of institutional investor interest and fewer business development opportunities.

If our shares of common stock lose their status on Nasdaq, we believe that they would likely be eligible to be quoted on the inter-dealer electronic quotation and trading system operated by OTC Markets Group Inc., commonly referred to as the Pink Open Market and we may also qualify to be traded on their OTCQB market (The Venture Market). These markets are generally not considered to be as efficient as, and not as broad as, Nasdaq. Selling our shares on these markets could be more difficult because smaller quantities of shares would likely be bought and sold, and transactions could be delayed. In addition, in the event our shares are delisted, broker-dealers have certain regulatory burdens imposed upon them, which may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our common stock or even holding our common stock, further limiting the liquidity of our common stock. These factors could result in lower prices and larger spreads in the bid and ask prices for our common stock.

Our stock price may be volatile, and your investment may suffer a decline in value as a result of the volatility of our stock.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:

●

our ability to execute our business plan and complete prospective strategic transactions;

●

changes in our industry;

●

competitive pricing pressures;

●

our ability to obtain working capital financing;

●

additions or departures of key personnel;

●

limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negative pricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;

●

sales of our common stock;

●

operating results that fall below expectations;

●

changes in our capital structure;

●

costs associated with our acquisitions of companies, assets and technologies;

●

regulatory developments;

●

economic and other external factors;

●

period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results;

●

our inability to develop or acquire new or needed technologies or news relating to such technologies;

●

the public’s response to press releases or other public announcements by us or third parties, including filings with the SEC;

●

changes in financial estimates or ratings by any securities analysts who follow our common stock, our failure to meet these estimates or failure of those analysts to initiate or maintain coverage of our common stock;

●

the development and sustainability of an active trading market for our common stock; and

●

any future sales of our common stock by our officers, directors and significant stockholders.

In addition, the stock markets in general, and the markets for technology stocks in particular, have experienced significant volatility that has often been unrelated to the financial condition or results of operations of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock and, consequently, adversely affect the price at which you could sell the shares that you purchase in this offering. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market or significant price declines, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted against companies. Such litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.

Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.

If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market upon the expiration of any statutory holding period under Rule 144, or shares issued upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants, it could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an “overhang” and, in anticipation of which, the market price of our common stock could fall. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make more difficult our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.

In general, a non-affiliated person who has held restricted shares for a period of six months, under Rule 144, may sell into the market our common stock all of their shares, subject to the Company being current in its periodic reports filed with the SEC. As of the date of this filing, a significant portion of our outstanding shares of common stock outstanding are free trading.

Sales of our common stock or other securities, or the perception that future sales may occur, may cause the market price of our common stock to decline, even if our business is doing well.

Sales of our common stock or other securities, or the perception that future sales may occur, may cause the market price of our common stock to decline, even if our business is doing well. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional shares. Historically, we have issued our securities to raise additional capital and used our shares of common stock to satisfy our outstanding debt obligations, and, in the future, we expect to continue to issue our securities to raise additional capital or satisfy outstanding debt obligations. The number of new shares of our common stock issued in connection with raising additional capital or satisfying our outstanding debt obligations could constitute a material portion of the then-outstanding shares of our common stock. The issuance or sale of such securities could depress the market price of our common stock.

There may be future sales or other dilution of our equity, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Our articles of incorporation allows us to issue up to 500,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and to issue and designate the rights of, without stockholder approval, up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. To raise additional capital, we may in the future sell additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock at prices that are lower than the prices paid by existing stockholders, and investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders, which could result in substantial dilution to the interests of existing stockholders. The market price of our common stock could decline as a result of sales of common stock or securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive common stock or the perception that such sales could occur.

In addition, to the extent that outstanding stock options or warrants have been or may be exercised or preferred stock converted or other shares issued, stockholders may experience further dilution.

In connection with our November 2025 acquisition of Drone Nerds, we issued 6,524,576 Class B Units of XTI Drones Holdings, LLC to the sellers as part of the purchase consideration. The Class B Units are exchangeable into shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. Holders may exchange their Class B Units at any time after May 1, 2026. All outstanding Class B Units will be automatically exchanged into shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis in February 2027, fifteen months after the acquisition closing date, regardless of the then-prevailing market price of our common stock. No additional consideration is payable upon exchange.

The issuance of approximately 6.5 million shares of common stock upon exchange of the Class B Units will dilute the ownership interests of our existing stockholders by increasing the number of shares outstanding. The timing and volume of exchanges prior to the mandatory exchange date, and the mandatory exchange itself, could increase the supply of shares available for sale in the public market and may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We may issue debt and equity securities or securities convertible into equity securities, any of which may be senior to our common stock as to distributions and in liquidation, which could negatively affect the value of our common stock.

In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by entering into debt or debt-like financing that is unsecured or secured by up to all of our assets, or by issuing additional debt or equity securities, which could include issuances of secured or unsecured commercial paper, medium-term notes, senior notes, subordinated notes, guarantees, preferred stock, hybrid securities, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities. In the event of our liquidation, our lenders and holders of our debt and preferred securities would receive distributions of our available assets before distributions to the holders of our common stock. Because our decision to incur debt and issue securities in future offerings may be influenced by market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings or debt financings. Further, market conditions could require us to accept less favorable terms for the issuance of our securities in the future.

If our common stock is delisted, market liquidity for our common stock could be severely affected and our stockholders’ ability to sell their shares of our common stock could be limited. A delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq would negatively affect the value of our common stock. A delisting of our common stock could also adversely affect our ability to obtain financing for our operations and could result in the loss of confidence in our company.

If our common stock becomes subject to the penny stock rules, it would become more difficult to trade our shares.

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or authorized for quotation on certain automated quotation systems, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. If we do not retain a listing on Nasdaq, and if the price of our common stock is less than $5.00, our common stock will be deemed a penny stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document containing specified information. In addition, the penny stock rules require that before effecting any transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, a broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive (i) the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement; (ii) a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks; and (iii) a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock, and therefore stockholders may have difficulty selling their shares.

We do not intend to pay cash dividends to our stockholders, so it is unlikely that stockholders will receive any return on their investment in our Company prior to selling our stock.

We have never paid any dividends to our common stockholders as a public company. We currently intend to retain any future earnings for funding growth and, therefore, do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. If we determine that we will pay cash dividends to the holders of our common stock, we cannot assure that such cash dividends will be paid on a timely basis. The success of your investment in our Company will likely depend entirely upon any future appreciation. As a result, you will not receive any return on your investment prior to selling your shares in our Company and, for the other reasons discussed in this “Risk Factors” section, you may not receive any return on your investment even when you sell your shares in our Company.

Some provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws may deter takeover attempts, which may inhibit a takeover that stockholders consider favorable and limit the opportunity of our stockholders to sell their shares at a favorable price.

Our bylaws divide our board of directors into three classes, with members of each class serving staggered three-year terms. The classified board provision could increase the likelihood that, in the event an outside party acquired a controlling block of our stock, incumbent directors nevertheless would retain their positions for a substantial period, which may have the effect of discouraging, delaying, or preventing a change in control. In addition, under our articles of incorporation, our Board may issue additional shares of common stock or preferred stock. Our Board has the ability to authorize “blank check” preferred stock without future shareholder approval. This makes it possible for our Board to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to acquire us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, including a transaction in which our stockholders would receive a premium over the market price for their shares and/or any other transaction that might otherwise be deemed to be in their best interests, and thereby protects the continuity of our management and limits an investor’s opportunity to profit by their investment in the Company. Specifically, if in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, the Board were to determine that a takeover proposal was not in our best interest, shares could be issued by our Board without stockholder approval in one or more transactions that might prevent or render more difficult or costly the completion of the takeover by:

●

diluting the voting or other rights of the proposed acquirer or insurgent stockholder group,

●

putting a substantial voting bloc in institutional or other hands that might undertake to support the incumbent Board, or

●

effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover.

These provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws, alone or together, could delay or prevent hostile takeovers and changes in control or changes in our management.

Nevada Anti-Takeover Law may discourage acquirers and eliminate a potentially beneficial sale for our stockholders.

We are subject to the provisions of Sections 78.411 to 78.444, inclusive, of the Nevada Revised Statutes, known as the “business combination” statute. This statute prevents many Nevada corporations from engaging in a business combination with any interested stockholder, under specified circumstances. For these purposes, a business combination includes a merger or sale of more than 5% of our assets, and an interested stockholder includes a stockholder who owns 10% or more of our outstanding voting stock, as well as affiliates and associates of these persons that, within two years prior to the combination, beneficially owned such percentage of the voting power. Under these provisions, this type of business combination is prohibited for up to four years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder unless the transaction in which the stockholder became an interested stockholder is approved by the board of directors prior to the date the interested stockholder attained that status. Where the person becoming an interested stockholder was not approved in advance by the board of directors, the Nevada business combination statute imposes a basic moratorium of two years on business combinations unless they are approved by the board of directors and stockholders owning at least 60% of the outstanding voting power not beneficially owned by the interested stockholder and its affiliates and associates. After the two-year period, but before four years, combinations remain prohibited but may also be permitted if the interested stockholder satisfies certain requirements with respect to the aggregate consideration to be received by holders of outstanding shares in the combination.

We are also subject to the “acquisition of controlling interest” provisions of Sections 78.378 through 78.3793, inclusive, of the Nevada Revised Statutes, also known as the “control share” statute, which apply to “issuing corporations” that are Nevada corporations doing business, directly or through an affiliate, in Nevada, and having at least 200 stockholders of record, including at least 100 of whom have addresses in Nevada appearing on the stock ledger of the corporation. Under that statute, any person who acquires a controlling interest in a corporation may not exercise voting rights of any control shares unless such voting rights are conferred by a majority vote of the disinterested stockholders of the issuing corporation at a special meeting of such stockholders held upon the request and at the expense of the acquiring person. The statute applies to acquisition of a “controlling interest” in ownership of outstanding voting shares of an issuing corporation sufficient to enable the acquiring person, individually or in association with others, directly or indirectly, to exercise (i) one fifth or more but less than one third, (ii) one third or more but less than a majority or (iii) a majority or more of the voting power of the issuing corporation in the election of directors, and voting rights must be conferred by a majority of the disinterested stockholders as each threshold is reached and/or exceeded. In the event that the control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person acquires control shares with a majority or more of all the voting power, any stockholder, other than the acquiring person, who does not vote in favor of authorizing voting rights for the control shares is entitled to demand payment for the fair value of such person’s shares, and the corporation must comply with the demand. The Nevada control share statute does not apply to any acquisition of a controlling interest in an issuing corporation if the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation in effect on the 10^th day following the acquisition of a controlling interest by the acquiring person provide that the provisions of those sections do not apply to the corporation or to an acquisition of a controlling interest specifically by types of existing or future stockholders, whether or not identified. Therefore, the board of directors of a Nevada corporation usually may unilaterally avoid the imposition of burdens imposed by the control share statute by amending the bylaws of the corporation in connection with a transaction. A Nevada corporation may impose stricter requirements if it so desires.

These statutes could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change in control attempts and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire us.

The limitation of liability, or our indemnification, of our officers and directors may cause us to use corporate resources in a manner that conflicts with the interests of our stockholders.

Nevada law eliminates the personal liability of our directors and officers for damages as a result of an act or failure to act in that capacity unless a statutory presumption that such person acted in good faith, on an informed basis and with a view to the interests of the corporation has been rebutted. In addition, it must be proven both that the act or failure to act constituted a breach of a fiduciary duty as a director or officer and that such breach involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law. This limitation may not affect the availability of equitable remedies, such as injunctive relief or rescission. Our Articles of Incorporation require us to indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law, including in circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary under Nevada law.

Nevada law generally permits indemnification of our directors, officers and others if the person either (i) acted in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the Company’s best interests, and, if the action is not by or in the right of the corporation and is with respect to any criminal proceeding, the person had no reasonable cause to believe that their conduct was unlawful, or (ii) is not liable under the Nevada statutory provision eliminating the liability of certain persons as described in the preceding paragraph.

These persons may be indemnified against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, penalties, including excise taxes, and amounts paid in settlement and costs, actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the proceeding. If the person is adjudged by a court to be liable to the corporation, no indemnification will be made unless that or another court determines that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us under the above provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

The obligations associated with being a public company require significant resources and management attention, which may divert from our business operations.

We are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). The Exchange Act requires that we file annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements, and other information. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we establish and maintain effective internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer are required to certify that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that material information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. As a result, we incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses. Furthermore, the need to establish the corporate infrastructure demanded of a public company may divert management’s attention from implementing our growth strategy, which could prevent us from improving our business, results of operations and financial condition. We have made, and will continue to make, if necessary, changes to our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting and accounting systems to meet our reporting obligations as a public company. However, the measures we take may not be sufficient to satisfy our obligations as a public company. In addition, we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur in order to comply with these requirements. We anticipate that these costs could materially increase our selling, general and administrative expenses.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. In connection with the implementation of the necessary procedures and practices related to internal control over financial reporting, we may identify deficiencies. Additionally, in the event we are no longer a smaller reporting company, as defined under the Exchange Act, and we are unable to comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, then we may not be able to obtain the independent registered public accountants’ certifications required by that act, which may preclude us from keeping our filings with the SEC current, and interfere with the ability of investors to trade our securities and our shares to continue to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

If we fail to establish and maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to report our financial results accurately or prevent fraud. Any inability to report and file our financial results accurately and timely could harm our reputation and adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, we may not be able to manage our business as effectively as we would if an effective control environment existed, and our business and reputation with investors may be harmed. With each prospective acquisition we may make we will conduct whatever due diligence is necessary or prudent to assure us that the acquisition target can comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Notwithstanding our diligence, certain internal controls deficiencies may not be detected. As a result, any internal control deficiencies may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and access to capital. We have not performed an in-depth analysis to determine if historical undiscovered failures of internal controls exist, and may in the future discover areas of our internal controls that need improvement.

If we are unable to maintain effective internal controls, we may not have adequate, accurate or timely financial information, and we may be unable to meet our reporting obligations as a public company, including the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may be unable to accurately report our financial results in future periods, or report them within the timeframes required by the requirements of the SEC, Nasdaq or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Failure to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, when and as applicable, could also potentially subject us to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities. Any failure to maintain or implement required new or improved controls, or any difficulties we encounter in their implementation, could result in identification of additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies, cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in our financial statements. Furthermore, if we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and results of operations could be harmed and investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information.

Public company compliance may make it more difficult to attract and retain officers and directors.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act and rules implemented by the SEC have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. As a public company, these rules and regulations increase our compliance costs and may make it more difficult and expensive for us to maintain our director and officer liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board or as executive officers, and to maintain insurance at reasonable rates, or at all.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they change their recommendations regarding our stock adversely, our stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our common stock relies in part on the research and reports that equity research analysts publish about us and our business. We do not control these analysts. The price of our common stock could decline if one or more equity research analysts downgrade our common stock or if they issue other unfavorable commentary or cease publishing reports about us or our business.

We may be or may become the target of securities litigation, which is costly and time-consuming to defend.

Following periods of market volatility in the price of a company’s securities or the reporting of unfavorable news, security holders may institute class action litigation. If the market value of our securities experience adverse fluctuations and we become involved in this type of litigation, regardless of the outcome, we could incur substantial legal costs and our management’s attention could be diverted from the operation of our business, causing our business to suffer.

ITEM 1B: UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide this information.

ITEM 1C: CYBERSECURITY

Risk Management and Strategy

We maintain a cybersecurity risk management program designed to identify, assess, manage, mitigate and respond to cybersecurity threats. This program is integrated into our broader enterprise risk management processes and addresses risks to our corporate information technology (“IT”) environment, including systems, networks, hardware, software, data, personnel and operational processes.

Our cybersecurity program incorporates recognized industry standards and best practices, including alignment with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (“NIST”) Cybersecurity Framework (“CSF”). We also consider applicable data protection and privacy regulations in jurisdictions in which we operate. We engage independent third-party specialists to perform periodic assessments of our cybersecurity program, including evaluations against the NIST CSF and vulnerability testing. These assessments are designed to identify, quantify and categorize cyber risks and potential vulnerabilities. Based on the results of such assessments, management develops and implements risk mitigation and remediation plans, as appropriate.

We maintain policies and procedures governing areas such as information security, acceptable use, identity and access management, onboarding and offboarding, change and configuration management, risk management, data protection, backup and recovery, and incident response. We also utilize third-party cybersecurity service providers and technology solutions to support our cybersecurity operations, including services related to:

●

asset inventory management;

●

network security, firewalls and endpoint protection;

●

intrusion detection, monitoring and automated alerting;

●

identity and privileged access management;

●

vulnerability scanning and periodic testing;

●

employee cybersecurity awareness training;

●

encryption and data protection protocols;

●

cloud infrastructure security;

●

incident response support; and

●

cybersecurity advisory and remediation services.

Because we rely on third-party vendors, cloud providers and service partners in our operations, we maintain a third-party risk management process designed to assess and monitor cybersecurity risks associated with critical service providers. This includes vendor due diligence during onboarding, review of available independent audit reports (such as SOC reports, where applicable), evaluation of contractual security provisions, and ongoing monitoring of vendor performance and risk posture.

Despite these efforts, we cannot eliminate all cybersecurity risks. The threat landscape continues to evolve, and our systems and those of our third-party providers may be vulnerable to unauthorized access, disruption or compromise.

Governance

Management Oversight

Management is responsible for the day-to-day oversight and administration of our cybersecurity risk management program. The Company utilizes a senior technology advisor as a consultant with primary responsibility for cybersecurity oversight. This individual has extensive experience in information technology and cybersecurity.

The senior technology advisor, together with internal personnel and external cybersecurity service providers, oversees the prevention, detection, mitigation and remediation of cybersecurity incidents. Management receives information from internal monitoring tools, third-party service providers, vulnerability assessments, and threat intelligence sources, including governmental and private sector resources.

We maintain an incident response plan designed to provide a structured framework for identifying, escalating, investigating and responding to cybersecurity incidents, including processes to assess materiality and comply with applicable legal and regulatory reporting requirements.

Board Oversight

The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors oversees cybersecurity risk exposure and management’s efforts to monitor and mitigate cybersecurity risks. Management and, as appropriate, external cybersecurity advisors provide periodic briefings to the Audit Committee regarding:

●

the effectiveness and status of our cybersecurity program;

●

significant cybersecurity risks and vulnerabilities;

●

emerging threat developments; and

●

cybersecurity incidents, if any, and related response efforts.

While the Board retains ultimate oversight responsibility for cybersecurity risk as part of its broader enterprise risk management function, it has delegated primary committee-level oversight to the Audit Committee, which reports to the Board on these matters.

Cybersecurity Risks and Incidents

We face risks from cybersecurity threats that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or reputation. These risks include, among others, ransomware attacks, business email compromise, supply chain attacks, insider threats, and data breaches affecting sensitive business, customer or employee information.

To date, we have not identified any cybersecurity incidents that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition. However, future incidents could occur, and there can be no assurance that our cybersecurity risk management measures will prevent or mitigate all potential incidents.

In addition, evolving cybersecurity and data protection regulations may impose additional compliance, reporting and governance obligations on us, potentially increasing our costs and exposure to liability.

For additional information regarding cybersecurity-related risks, see Item 1A. “Risk Factors.”

ITEM 2: PROPERTIES

Our principal executive offices are located in Addison, Texas, where we lease office space supporting corporate management and administrative functions.

Through our ADS subsidiary (formerly XTI Aircraft), we operate from a leased facility located at the Chester County Airport in Coatesville, Pennsylvania, which supports engineering and related activities associated with design, development, and integration of unmanned platforms.

Our UAS operations, conducted primarily through Drone Nerds, are headquartered in the Miami–Fort Lauderdale metropolitan area of Florida. Drone Nerds operates three primary leased facilities in that region, including its headquarters, a retail showroom location and a dedicated service and repair center. These facilities support product distribution, inventory storage, training, repair and lifecycle support operations.

We no longer lease office space in Palo Alto, California or in Germany, and we do not currently maintain any leased facilities outside of the United States.

We believe our existing facilities are adequate for our current operations and reasonably anticipated near-term needs.

ITEM 3: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Except as disclosed below, there are no material pending legal proceedings as defined by Item 103 of Regulation S-K, to which we are a party or of which any of our property is the subject, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the Company’s business.

There are no proceedings in which any of the directors, officers or affiliates of the Company, or any registered or beneficial holder of more than 5% of the Company’s voting securities, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to that of the Company.

On December 6, 2023, Xeriant, Inc. (“Xeriant”) filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “S.D.N.Y.”) against Legacy XTI, two unnamed entities, and five unnamed individuals. On January 31, 2024, Xeriant filed an amended complaint adding the Company as a defendant. On February 29, 2024, Xeriant filed a second amended complaint, removing the Company and one of the unnamed entities as defendants. The second amended complaint alleges that Legacy XTI breached several agreements with Xeriant, including a Joint Venture Agreement dated May 31, 2021, a cross-patent license agreement, an operating agreement, and a letter dated May 17, 2022, which Xeriant claims arose from its introduction of Legacy XTI to a Nasdaq-listed company as a potential acquirer. Xeriant further alleges that it provided intellectual property, expertise, and capital in connection with Legacy XTI’s TriFan 600 aircraft and was improperly excluded from a subsequent transaction involving the TriFan 600 technology as part of Legacy XTI’s merger with the Company. Xeriant asserts causes of action for breach of contract, fraud, unjust enrichment, and misappropriation of confidential information, and seeks damages in excess of $500 million, along with injunctive and other equitable relief. On March 13, 2024, Legacy XTI moved to dismiss portions of the second amended complaint. The S.D.N.Y. denied that motion on January 14, 2025. Legacy XTI filed an answer on January 28, 2025, and subsequently filed an amended answer and counterclaims on February 18, 2025. The amended counterclaims, further amended on April 14, 2025, allege that Xeriant breached the Joint Venture Agreement by failing to make required capital contributions of approximately $4.6 million and by failing to deliver promised intellectual property and strategic support. Legacy XTI further alleges that Xeriant breached its fiduciary duty by engaging in coercive and self-dealing conduct, including conditioning a strategic introduction on the issuance of equity and assumption of debt. Legacy XTI seeks declaratory relief confirming that the joint venture has been terminated, that all intellectual property related to the TriFan 600 belongs solely to Legacy XTI, and that Xeriant has no rights in the TriFan 600 technology. On April 28, 2025, Xeriant moved to dismiss Legacy XTI’s second amended counterclaims. On September 23, 2025, the S.D.N.Y. denied Xeriant’s motion, concluding that Legacy XTI plausibly alleged claims against Xeriant for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, and declaratory judgment. The S.D.N.Y. found that Legacy XTI had adequately pleaded that Xeriant was obligated to contribute $10 million in funding to the joint venture and that it acted disloyally by leveraging a potential merger opportunity for its own benefit. Following the S.D.N.Y.’s September 23, 2025 denial of Xeriant’s motion to dismiss Legacy XTI’s counterclaims, the litigation has advanced into full discovery. The S.D.N.Y. has since compelled Xeriant to comply with its discovery obligations and warned that continued noncompliance would result in dismissal of its claims. While the Company continues to believe the allegations against Legacy XTI are meritless, the case remains in active discovery and subject to close judicial supervision, which may increase litigation costs and extend the duration of the proceedings. On December 9, 2025, Xeriant filed a Third Amended Complaint, voluntarily non-suiting five counts from the prior complaint and revising its damages demand from $500 million to an unspecified amount. On December 23, 2025, Legacy XTI filed its Answer, Affirmative Defenses, and Counterclaims in response to the Third Amended Complaint. Discovery remains ongoing. The outcome of the litigation cannot presently be predicted, and any adverse determination could have a material impact on the Company.

In connection with the litigation matter described in the immediately preceding paragraph, on June 12, 2024, the Company received correspondence from legal counsel for Auctus Fund, LLC (“Auctus”), dated April 3, 2024, asserting that the Company and/or Legacy XTI may have assumed Xeriant’s obligations under a Senior Secured Promissory Note (the “Note”) issued by Xeriant to Auctus in the original principal amount of $6,050,000, pursuant to a letter agreement dated May 17, 2022, between Xeriant and Legacy XTI (the “May 17 letter”). Auctus claimed that the outstanding amount due under the Note, including accrued interest, was $8,435,008.81 as of April 3, 2024. In July 2024, Legacy XTI responded to Auctus’s claims, asserting that the May 17 letter is invalid and unenforceable on multiple grounds. Legacy XTI further stated that, even if the May 17 letter were enforceable, it did not create or trigger any obligation for Legacy XTI to assume Xeriant’s debt under the Note or otherwise. On May 13, 2025, Auctus filed a lawsuit against Legacy XTI in the District Court of Arapahoe County, Colorado, asserting a single claim for breach of contract based on its prior allegations. Auctus contends that Legacy XTI is contractually obligated to repay nearly $9 million in principal and accrued interest, based on Legacy XTI’s entry into a loan agreement with Legacy Inpixon in March 2023 and its subsequent merger with Legacy Inpixon in March 2024. On June 25, 2025, Legacy XTI filed a motion to dismiss or, in the alternative, to stay the proceedings pending resolution of the Xeriant litigation. Legacy XTI’s motion asserts that Auctus’ complaint should be dismissed: (i) for lack of standing, because Auctus is neither a party to, nor a third-party beneficiary of, the May 17 letter; (ii) for failure of a condition precedent, because no obligation ever arose in that the alleged triggering condition—a business combination involving Legacy XTI and Legacy Inpixon did not occur within the required one-year time frame; (iii) for lack of valid assignment, because Xeriant’s unilateral assignment of debt to Legacy XTI is void because the underlying Note prohibits assignment without Auctus’s prior written consent, which is not alleged. On August 5, 2025, Auctus filed a response arguing that it was an intended third-party beneficiary of the May 17 letter, that the anti-assignment clause does not bar its claims, and that the request for a stay is unwarranted because the Xeriant litigation involves different parties and broader claims. On September 12, 2025, Legacy XTI filed a Reply Brief reinforcing that Auctus lacks standing, that no obligation ever arose under the May 17 Letter because no qualifying transaction occurred within its one-year term, and that any purported transfer of debt is void under the Note’s anti-assignment clause. The Reply also emphasized that the enforceability of the May 17 Letter is already before the S.D.N.Y. and urged dismissal or a stay to avoid inconsistent rulings. On October 2, 2025, Legacy XTI filed a Notice of Supplemental Authority submitting the September 23, 2025 Order of the S.D.N.Y., which denied Xeriant’s motion to dismiss Legacy XTI’s counterclaims and held that Legacy XTI had plausibly alleged that the May 17 Letter expired by its terms and is unenforceable. Legacy XTI asserted that the S.D.N.Y. ruling directly supports dismissal or a stay because it confirms that the same alleged contract and issues raised by Auctus are already being adjudicated in the federal case. On November 7, 2025, the court denied Legacy XTI’s motion to dismiss or, in the alternative, stay the proceedings. The court held that, when viewing the allegations in the light most favorable to Auctus, the complaint plausibly stated claims for relief under Colorado’s notice-pleading standard. The court further denied Legacy XTI’s alternative request for a stay, reasoning that the parties were not identical to those in the federal action and therefore comity and judicial economy did not warrant a stay. The court nonetheless directed the parties to update it regarding the outcome of the federal case to the extent it may be dispositive of overlapping issues. On November 21, 2025, Legacy XTI filed its Answer and Affirmative Defenses to the Complaint. The parties are engaged in discovery. The Company will continue to vigorously defend against the claims but cannot predict the timing or outcome of the proceedings or estimate any potential exposure.

In February 2026, the State of Texas filed a petition in the District Court of Collin County, Texas, against Anzu Robotics, LLC (“Anzu”) alleging that Anzu violated the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act (the “DTPA”) in connection with the marketing and sale of its drone products. The State contends, among other things, that Anzu misrepresented certain characteristics, origins, and security features of its products and failed to disclose certain alleged material facts relating to the products’ development and components and Anzu’s alleged business relationship with DJI. The State seeks temporary and permanent injunctive relief, civil penalties of up to $10,000 per violation of the DTPA and up to an additional $250,000 if the conduct was calculated to deprive a consumer age 65 or older of money or property, and attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company is engaged in discussions with the Texas Attorney General to attempt to resolve the matter cooperatively. The Company cannot at this time predict the outcome of this matter or reasonably estimate a range of potential loss, if any.

ITEM 7: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis here and throughout this Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, due to a number of factors, including but not limited to, risks described in the section entitled “Risk Factors.”

OVERVIEW OF OUR BUSINESS

XTI Aerospace, Inc. is a U.S.-based aerospace company focused on building and scaling a market-leading UAS solutions platform serving enterprise, public safety, government, and defense customers, while maintaining long-term optionality in advanced vertical lift aircraft development.

The Company manages its operations through two reportable segments: Unmanned Aircraft Systems (“UAS”) and Commercial Aviation. These segments reflect the Company’s distinct business models, capital requirements and growth drivers. Our core business currently consists of:

●

Unmanned Aircraft Systems - an established UAS solutions and services platform operated through our majority-owned subsidiary, XTI Drones Holdings, LLC, providing enterprise drone distribution, training, compliance management support, repair and maintenance, fleet sustainment and related services, and

●

Commercial Aviation - a development-stage VTOL aircraft program focused on the TriFan 600, a fixed-wing aircraft design concept intended to combine the vertical takeoff and landing capability of a helicopter with the speed and range of a conventional business aircraft, operated through our wholly-owned subsidiary, XTI Aircraft Company.

During 2024 and 2025, the Company underwent a series of transactions that changed our operating profile, revenue base, and capital allocation priorities.

Corporate Transformation

On March 12, 2024, we completed a merger (the “XTI Merger”) with XTI Aircraft Company (“Legacy XTI”) that was accounted for as a reverse acquisition, with Legacy XTI treated as the accounting acquirer and the Company (formerly Inpixon) treated as the accounting acquiree. As a result, our consolidated financial statements reflect (i) the historical financial statements of Legacy XTI prior to the closing date and (ii) the consolidated results of the combined company following the closing date.

In November 2025, we completed the acquisition of Drone Nerds, LLC and Anzu Robotics, LLC (collectively, “Drone Nerds”) with Anzu Robotics, LLC having been affiliated with Drone Nerds, LLC (then known as Drone Nerds, Inc.) prior to the acquisition. The Company owns an 83.403% controlling interest in the XTI Drones Holdings subsidiary, with the remaining equity reflected as noncontrolling interest.

The acquisition of Drone Nerds represents a significant strategic shift. Prior to the acquisition, our operations were primarily focused on our Inpixon Business and the development of the TriFan 600 aircraft and other aerospace technologies. With the acquisition of Drone Nerds, we transitioned our focus towards scaling Drone Nerds’ revenue-generating UAS solutions platform. Because Drone Nerds was acquired in November 2025, our consolidated results for the year ended December 31, 2025 include Drone Nerds’ results only from the acquisition date through year-end. Accordingly, GAAP revenues, cost of revenues, and operating expenses for 2025 do not reflect a full year of UAS operations at scale.

In conjunction with the acquisition of Drone Nerds, we also recognized the challenge of the long-term financing requirements of developing a VTOL aircraft and the opportunities in the unmanned systems market in the near term. Late in 2025, we began building a core capability around the design, development, and production of unmanned platforms, with an emphasis on serving defense customers and supporting domestic procurement initiatives aligned with U.S. national security priorities.

During December 2025, the Company committed to a plan to dispose of its historical Inpixon Business and classified the business as held for sale. The results of the Inpixon Business are presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.

As a result of these transactions, our current operating profile differs materially from prior periods, and historical results may not be fully comparable. Accordingly, in addition to reviewing our GAAP results, management evaluates performance and allocates capital with an emphasis on:

●

Revenue growth and channel mix within the UAS platform.

●

Gross margin expansion through service attachment and lifecycle support.

●

Working capital efficiency and liquidity management.

●

Disciplined allocation of capital between UAS scaling initiatives and TriFan development.

UAS Solutions Platform

Through Drone Nerds, we operate an established enterprise-focused UAS solutions platform in the United States. Our operating model is designed to provide end-to-end UAS lifecycle capabilities across hardware distribution, operator training, compliance management support, repair and maintenance, fleet sustainment, and related support services.

We operate an OEM-agnostic, multi-vendor ecosystem supporting more than 50 hardware and software manufacturers. This positioning enables us to serve enterprise and public sector customers navigating evolving regulatory requirements, supply chain considerations, and procurement restrictions.

Our strategy is aligned with our broader Vertical Economy™ vision, which encompasses vertical lift technologies and supporting infrastructure across unmanned and manned aircraft platforms. While our long-term vision includes broader participation across the vertical lift ecosystem, our near-term operating focus is centered on scaling our UAS platform with disciplined capital allocation and margin optimization.

We believe the UAS market is undergoing structural evolution driven by:

●

Increasing enterprise adoption of drones for inspection, safety, and operational efficiency

●

Regulatory developments affecting fleet eligibility and operational approvals

●

Growing emphasis on secure and compliant procurement in government and defense channels

●

Customer demand for integrated lifecycle solutions rather than standalone hardware transactions

Our integrated model is designed to address these trends by positioning us as a long-term solutions partner rather than a transactional reseller.

TriFan 600 VTOL Program

As of early 2026, the TriFan 600 program has been paused. Whether and when development may resume will depend on a number of factors, including capital availability, market conditions for advanced air mobility, and the Company’s overall strategic priorities at the relevant time. While the TriFan 600 remains a strategic long-term asset within our broader vertical lift vision, our current revenue base and operating execution are centered on our UAS solutions platform.

Capital Allocation and Liquidity Strategy

During 2025, we completed multiple public offerings and a Series 10 Convertible Preferred Stock financing, which generated an aggregate of approximately $85.5 million in net proceeds, strengthening our liquidity and supporting our strategic initiatives, including the Drone Nerds acquisition and working capital stabilization. Our operating priorities are focused on:

●

Strengthening and scaling our UAS platform.

●

Improving margin profile and recurring revenue mix.

●

Managing operating expenses and cash burn.

●

Preserving long-term vertical lift optionality.

Our near-term objective is to move toward improved operating cash flow sustainability within the UAS segment while maintaining disciplined investment in our other programs, which may require additional capital over time.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Sale of Inpixon Business. In February 2026, we completed the sale of our historical Inpixon Business, which had been classified as discontinued operations during the fourth quarter of 2025. The transaction furthered our strategic repositioning toward a focused aerospace and UAS platform. The final purchase price remains subject to customary post-closing adjustments.

Board and Leadership Changes. Clinton Weber was elected to our Board of Directors at our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders held on December 30, 2025. In February 2026, we appointed Jonathan Ornstein to our Board of Directors. In addition, Soumya Das resigned from his position as Chief Executive Officer of the Inpixon Business and from the Company’s Board of Directors in connection with the disposition of that business.

Asset-Based Credit Facility. In February 2026, we entered into a new secured asset-based revolving credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “ABL Facility”). The ABL Facility provides for a revolving line of credit of up to $20.0 million, subject to a borrowing base calculated primarily on eligible accounts receivable and inventory, and includes customary covenants and reporting requirements. Subject to lender approval and the terms of the underlying credit agreement, the facility may be increased by up to an additional $25.0 million.

The ABL Facility is intended to enhance our working capital flexibility, support inventory procurement and growth within our UAS platform, and strengthen overall liquidity management. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at variable rates based on applicable benchmark rates plus an agreed margin.

Warrant Exercises. 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.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures. We base these estimates on historical experience, current trends, and other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and such differences could be material.

Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report. We believe the following accounting estimates are critical to understanding our consolidated financial statements because they involve significant judgment, estimates and assumptions.

Revenue Recognition

We generate revenue primarily through our UAS solutions and services business, which includes the sale and distribution of UAS platforms, payloads, sensors, batteries, accessories and related equipment, as well as certain support services. Revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Substantially all revenue is recognized at a point in time when control transfers to the customer, which generally occurs upon shipment for wholesale and direct sales transactions (FOB shipping point) or at the point of sale for retail transactions. Certain service-based offerings, including product protection programs, may be recognized over time; however, such amounts are not material to the consolidated financial statements.

We generally act as principal in our sales arrangements and recognize revenue on a gross basis. In limited cases, we facilitate the sale of third-party service offerings (e.g., product protection programs), for which we act as an agent and recognize revenue on a net basis; however, such amounts are not material.

The transaction price may include variable consideration, including volume discounts, rebates, and estimated product returns, which are recorded based on historical experience and current trends. Deferred revenue primarily represents amounts received from customers prior to shipment.

We record freight billed to customers in revenue, and related shipping and handling costs are included in cost of revenues. We have elected the practical expedient related to significant financing components, as our contracts generally do not include a period greater than one year between transfer of goods or services and payment. We also apply the practical expedient related to costs to obtain a contract and expense such costs as incurred when the amortization period would have been one year or less.

The most significant estimates and judgments in our revenue recognition include:

●

Estimation of returns and refund liabilities;

●

Determination of whether certain arrangements contain variable consideration;

●

Evaluation of whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time versus over time (where applicable); and

●

Determination of when control transfers under shipping terms.

Allowance for Credit Losses

We maintain an allowance for credit losses for expected losses resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments. The allowance is based on historical loss experience, aging of receivables, specific customer credit evaluations, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions.

Because the majority of our revenue is generated from the sale and distribution of UAS platforms and related products to enterprise, commercial and governmental customers, changes in customer creditworthiness, economic conditions, or industry dynamics could impact the collectability of receivables. If actual customer payment patterns differ from management’s estimates, additional credit loss expense may be required.

We also maintain credit insurance that further reduces our exposure to potential credit losses.

Inventory Valuation

Inventory represents a significant asset of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and consists primarily of finished goods, including drones and related accessories held for resale in the ordinary course of business. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined using the first-in, first-out method.

The determination of net realizable value requires management to make significant estimates and judgments regarding future demand, market conditions, technological developments, and expected selling prices. The enterprise drone industry is characterized by rapid technological innovation, new product introductions, evolving regulatory frameworks, and changes in customer preferences. These factors increase the risk that certain inventory items may become obsolete or experience reduced demand prior to sale.

Management evaluates inventory on a regular basis for excess, slow-moving, or obsolete items by analyzing historical sales trends, current backlog, forecasted demand, inventory aging, vendor product roadmaps, and anticipated technological changes. When the estimated net realizable value of inventory is lower than its recorded cost, the Company records a write-down (including a provision for inventory obsolescence) through cost of sales. Such write-downs establish a new cost basis and are not subsequently reversed if market conditions improve.

As of December 31, 2025, all inventory relates to the Drone Nerds (UAS) segment and was recorded at its estimated net realizable value in connection with the Drone Nerds acquisition. No material inventory reserves or write-downs were recorded subsequent to the acquisition closing date. While management believes its assumptions and estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ materially due to changes in market conditions, customer demand, competitive pricing pressures, or product life cycles. A sustained decline in demand for key product lines, delays in new product launches, or accelerated technological obsolescence could result in additional inventory write-downs that would adversely affect gross margins and operating results in future periods.

Business Combinations and Purchase Accounting

We account for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under this method, the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

The determination of fair values requires significant judgment and estimation, including with respect to:

●

Identifiable intangible assets and their estimated useful lives;

●

Assumed discount rates, royalty rates and forecast assumptions used in valuation models;

●

Expected future cash flows and market participant assumptions; and

●

The valuation of contingent consideration or other acquisition-related liabilities, if applicable.

Changes in assumptions used in purchase accounting could materially affect the amounts assigned to goodwill, intangible assets, depreciation and amortization expense, and future impairment analyses.

The valuation of equity and debt instruments issued as consideration requires judgment regarding the fair value of the Company’s common stock, discount rates, and other market-based inputs at the acquisition date.

Acquisition-related transaction costs are expensed as incurred. We may refine the purchase price allocation during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date) as additional information becomes available.

Valuation of Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, if any, are evaluated for impairment at least annually as of October 1, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. Long-lived assets and finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.

For long-lived assets held and used, recoverability is assessed by comparing the carrying amount of the asset group to the expected undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. If the carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds fair value.

For goodwill impairment testing, we compare the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. Fair value is typically estimated using discounted cash flow models and, when appropriate, market-based valuation approaches. These analyses require significant judgment and are sensitive to changes in assumptions, including:

●

Forecasted revenue growth rates and margins;

●

Expected future cash flows;

●

Discount rates;

●

Long-term growth rates; and

●

Market multiples and comparable company inputs.

Impairment of Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company identified triggering events related to the Inpixon Business, including continued operating losses, negative cash flows, and management’s decision to pursue a disposition of the business.

The Company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test in accordance with ASC 350 and determined that the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeded its estimated fair value. As a result, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of approximately $4.0 million during 2025. In addition, the Company evaluated definite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets for recoverability in accordance with ASC 360. Based on this analysis, the Company recorded impairment charges of approximately $0.6 million. These impairments reflect the write-down of asset groups to their estimated fair value.

In December 2025, management committed to a plan to dispose of the Inpixon Business and classified the disposal group as held for sale. Upon classification, the disposal group was measured at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell in accordance with ASC 360, resulting in an additional impairment charge of approximately $5.9 million.

The fair value of the affected asset groups and disposal group was determined using an income approach based on estimated future cash flows, which required significant judgment, including assumptions related to revenue growth, margins, and discount rates.

All impairment charges recognized during 2025 relate to the Inpixon Business and are presented within loss from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations.

Deferred Income Taxes and Valuation Allowances

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the financial statement carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.

We assess the realizability of deferred tax assets and establish a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The evaluation of whether a valuation allowance is required is based on all available positive and negative evidence, including:

●

Historical taxable income or losses;

●

Forecasted future taxable income;

●

Reversal patterns of temporary differences;

●

Tax planning strategies; and

●

The ability to utilize net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards.

Because our ability to realize deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income, changes in our forecasts or business performance could materially impact our valuation allowance and income tax expense.

We also recognize liabilities for uncertain tax positions when it is more likely than not that the tax position will not be sustained upon examination, and we measure such liabilities based on the largest amount of benefit that is more likely than not to be realized.

Fair Value Measurements and Accounting for Financial Instruments

We use significant judgment in the accounting for certain financial instruments, including those issued in connection with equity and debt financings. Certain instruments may require classification as liabilities and measurement at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. Fair value measurements may require the use of valuation techniques, including option pricing models, which involve significant assumptions such as expected volatility, risk-free interest rates, expected term, and probability of certain events.

Because these assumptions can be subjective and sensitive to market conditions, changes in assumptions could materially affect the carrying values of these instruments and the related gains or losses recognized in our consolidated statements of operations.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period and is based on the grant date fair value of the awards.

The fair value of stock options is generally estimated using an option pricing model, which requires assumptions such as:

●

Expected volatility;

●

Expected term;

●

Risk-free interest rate; and

●

Expected dividends.

These assumptions require judgment and could materially impact the amount of stock-based compensation expense recognized.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview and Comparability Considerations

Our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 reflect the impact of several transactions, including the acquisition of Drone Nerds in November 2025 and our decision to dispose of the historical Inpixon Business and classification of that business as held for sale, which is presented as discontinued operations. As a result, period-to-period comparisons may not fully reflect the operating scale and revenue profile of the Company following the Drone Nerds acquisition.

Corporate and Public Company Costs

Following the XTI Merger in March 2024 and our subsequent strategic transactions in 2025, we incurred corporate and public company costs associated with operating as a Nasdaq-listed company, executing capital raises, and completing acquisition-related activity.

Corporate costs include executive management, finance, legal, compliance, investor relations, audit, and other public company-related professional fees. Corporate expenses also include stock-based compensation, which is non-cash in nature but can be material in periods involving significant equity-based awards, capital raising activity, or other strategic transactions.

During 2025, corporate expenses also included certain non-recurring items, such as transaction costs, integration-related costs, and other costs associated with strategic activities.

Discontinued Operations (Inpixon Business)

The results of the Inpixon Business are presented as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. Unless otherwise indicated, the discussion below relates to continuing operations.

Consolidated GAAP Results of Operations (Continuing Operations)

Revenues

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025 reflect the Company’s UAS solutions and services operations following the Drone Nerds acquisition in November 2025, as well as other continuing operations. Revenues for the comparable period in 2024 primarily reflect the historical results of Legacy XTI, a development-stage aircraft company. Accordingly, year-over-year comparisons are not necessarily indicative of the operating scale of the Company following the acquisition.

We expect that revenue growth and mix in future periods will be influenced primarily by the performance of Drone Nerds, including channel mix, enterprise and public sector demand, service attachment rates, and product availability across OEM partners.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit

Cost of revenues consists primarily of product costs associated with UAS hardware and accessories, as well as labor and other direct costs associated with repair, maintenance, training, and other service offerings.

Gross margin is influenced by product mix, pricing discipline, inventory and vendor cost dynamics, channel mix (including enterprise versus wholesale and retail), and the relative contribution of higher-margin services. We believe expanding service penetration and lifecycle support offerings may improve gross margin stability over time.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses consist primarily of research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses.

Research and development expenses are primarily attributable to the TriFan 600 VTOL aircraft development program. These costs include personnel-related expenses, engineering and technical consulting fees, prototype and testing costs, software and tooling expenses, and other costs incurred in connection with aircraft development and certification planning. R&D spending may fluctuate based on the timing and scope of development activities and available funding.

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, advertising and marketing programs, trade shows, and other customer acquisition and relationship management activities. Following the Drone Nerds acquisition, sales and marketing spending is expected to reflect the scale of the UAS business, including enterprise and public sector sales efforts.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs for executive, finance, legal, and administrative functions, as well as professional fees, insurance, facilities, and public company costs. General and administrative expenses also include stock-based compensation and transaction-related costs, which may be significant in periods involving capital raises, acquisitions, or other strategic transactions.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) consists primarily of interest expense, changes in fair value of certain financial instruments, gains or losses related to extinguishment or modification of debt, and other non-operating items.

During 2025, our other income (expense) was materially influenced by financing and capital markets activity, including instruments issued in connection with public offerings and the Series 10 Convertible Preferred Stock financing, as well as fair value remeasurement of certain liabilities. These items can create significant period-to-period volatility and may not be indicative of core operating performance.

Income Taxes

We recorded income tax expense (benefit) primarily related to state minimum taxes and other items. We maintain valuation allowances against substantially all of our deferred tax assets due to historical losses and uncertainty regarding future taxable income.

Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information (Supplemental)

Because Drone Nerds was acquired in November 2025, our consolidated results for the year ended December 31, 2025 include only a partial period of Drone Nerds operations. For informational purposes, we have included unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information in the notes to our consolidated financial statements, which is presented as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2024.

Year Ended December 31, 2025 compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2024

Comparability of Financial Information

On March 12, 2024, we completed the XTI Merger, which was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with Legacy XTI treated as the accounting acquirer and the Company (formerly Inpixon) treated as the accounting acquiree. As a result, our consolidated financial statements reflect (i) the historical financial statements of Legacy XTI prior to the closing date and (ii) the consolidated results of the combined company from the closing date forward.

Accordingly, the year ended December 31, 2024 reflects the historical operations of Legacy XTI, a development-stage aircraft company with no revenue, together with the corporate-level expenses of the public company. The year ended December 31, 2025 reflects the operations of the combined company, including revenue generated from our UAS solutions platform following the acquisition of Drone Nerds in November 2025. In addition, during December 2025, we committed to a plan to dispose of our historical Inpixon Business, which is presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

As a result of these transactions, period-to-period comparisons may not be fully comparable.

The following table presents selected consolidated results of continuing operations:

	For the Years Ended

**	Comparisons between positive and negative numbers and with a zero are not meaningful.

Revenues

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $22.5 million, reflecting revenue generated by our UAS solutions platform following the acquisition of Drone Nerds in November 2025. Accordingly, revenues for 2025 represent only the period from the acquisition date through December 31, 2025. The Company did not generate revenue during 2024, as Legacy XTI was a development-stage aircraft company focused on the TriFan 600 program.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit

Cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $17.6 million, resulting in gross profit of $4.9 million and a gross margin of approximately 21.9%. The gross margin reflects the product mix and operating model of the UAS distribution and services business, which includes hardware sales, accessories, and related support services.

There were no revenues or cost of revenues in 2024.

Future gross margin performance will be influenced by product mix, service attachment rates, pricing discipline, vendor cost dynamics, and channel mix.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $47.7 million, an increase of $18.1 million, or 61%, compared to $29.7 million in 2024.

The increase was primarily attributable to:

●

Higher general and administrative expenses associated with operating as a public company for a full year in 2025, including increased legal, accounting, audit, insurance, compliance, and investor relations costs.

●

Increased personnel-related expenses, including stock-based compensation.

●

Costs associated with capital raising activities and strategic transactions completed during 2025.

●

Operating expenses attributable to the acquired Drone Nerds business from the acquisition date through year-end.

●

Investment in research and development related to the TriFan 600 program.

During 2024, operating expenses included costs associated with the XTI Merger, including $6.5 million of merger and acquisition transaction costs. These costs were lower in 2025; however, this decrease was more than offset by the factors described above.

Loss from Continuing Operations

Loss from continuing operations increased to $42.8 million in 2025 from $29.7 million in 2024. The increase was driven primarily by the increase in operating expenses discussed above, partially offset by the contribution of gross profit from the UAS business in 2025.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) was a net expense of $10.2 million in 2025 compared to net income of $1.4 million in 2024.

The 2025 expense was primarily attributable to:

●

$6.6 million of warrant issuance expense related to financing transactions completed during the year,

●

$2.0 million expense related to a full allowance for expected credit losses on the Company’s convertible promissory note investment in Valkyrie Sciences Holdings LLC. The investment was made in October 2025 as part of the Company’s broader strategic initiative to expand its capabilities in artificial intelligence and advanced technologies and was not primarily intended to generate returns through near-term repayment of contractual cash flows. As of December 31, 2025, based on information available to management, including the issuer’s limited operating history, lack of near-term revenue, and dependence on future financing, the Company determined that collection of substantially all contractual cash flows associated with the note was not expected. Accordingly, a full allowance for expected credit losses was recorded in accordance with ASC 326. The recognition of this allowance reflects the application of the expected credit loss model to the debt instrument and does not represent a reassessment of the Company’s original strategic rationale for the investment or its view of the potential long-term value associated with its relationship with Valkyrie,

●

$0.6 million change in fair value of warrant liabilities,

●

$0.4 million loss on extinguishment of debt, and

●

$0.3 million decrease in the fair value of certain investments and related instruments.

These items were partially offset by lower interest expense compared to 2024.

In contrast, 2024 included a significant $12.9 million gain related to the change in fair value of convertible notes accounted for under the fair value option, partially offset by inducement losses on debt conversions and other financing-related costs. The absence of a comparable fair value gain in 2025 contributed to the year-over-year decline.

Other income (expense) may fluctuate significantly in future periods based on financing activities and fair value remeasurement of certain financial instruments.

Income Taxes

Income tax benefit (provision) was approximately $0.01 million in 2025 compared to an income tax provision of $0.02 million in 2024. Income taxes for both periods primarily reflect state minimum taxes and other immaterial items. We continue to maintain a valuation allowance against substantially all deferred tax assets.

Segment Results of Operations

Beginning in November 2025, the Company operates through two reportable segments: UAS and Commercial Aviation. The UAS segment reflects the operations of Drone Nerds beginning on November 10, 2025, while the Commercial Aviation segment includes activities related to the development of the TriFan 600 aircraft program.

Beginning in fiscal year 2026, the Company expects that its operating structure and internal management reporting may evolve to reflect the continued development of its UAS solutions, advanced systems and defense, and domestic manufacturing and technology activities. As a result, the Company anticipates that its reportable segments may be modified in future periods to align with how management evaluates performance and allocates resources. Any such changes will be reflected in the Company’s financial reporting beginning in the period in which they occur.

UAS Segment

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the UAS segment generated revenue of approximately $22.5 million and gross profit of approximately $4.9 million. Operating expenses for the UAS segment consisted primarily of sales and marketing expenses associated with distribution activities and general and administrative expenses required to support the operations of Drone Nerds following the acquisition.

Commercial Aviation Segment

The Commercial Aviation segment did not generate revenue during the year ended December 31, 2025 as the Company continued to focus on development of the TriFan 600 aircraft. Operating expenses for this segment consisted primarily of research and development costs related to engineering, design and certification activities, as well as general corporate expenses supporting ongoing development efforts.

Discontinued Operations

During December 2025, the Company committed to a plan to dispose of its Inpixon Business and initiated an active process to identify a buyer. The Company completed the sale of the Inpixon Business on February 3, 2026 for total consideration of approximately $5.5 million.

The Inpixon Business is presented as discontinued operations for all periods shown.

Loss from discontinued operations was $15.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $7.3 million in 2024. The 2025 loss includes approximately $10.5 million of impairment charges, consisting primarily of goodwill and intangible asset impairments recognized in connection with the Company’s decision to dispose of the business and its classification as held for sale.

Excluding impairment charges, the Inpixon Business continued to generate operating losses, reflecting ongoing negative cash flows and the Company’s strategic decision to exit the business.

Net cash used in operating activities of discontinued operations was approximately $4.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, consistent with the Company’s historical operating losses for this business.

The disposition of the Inpixon Business represents a strategic shift that allows the Company to focus its resources on its core UAS and aerospace development operations, following losses of $15.5 million and $7.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information (Supplemental)

Because the acquisition of Drone Nerds was completed on November 10, 2025, our consolidated results for the year ended December 31, 2025 include only a partial period of Drone Nerds operations. As a result, our reported GAAP results for 2025 do not reflect a full year of UAS platform operations.

To provide additional context regarding the scale of the combined business, we have presented unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information as if the Drone Nerds acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2024.

The unaudited pro forma information is presented for comparative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of:

●

The results of operations that would have been achieved had the acquisition been completed on the assumed date;

●

The actual results of the combined company for any future period; or

●

The Company’s expected future operating performance.

The pro forma results reflect adjustments that are directly attributable to the acquisition and factually supportable, including:

●

Incremental amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets;

●

Interest expense associated with acquisition-related indebtedness;

●

Elimination of transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition; and

●

Conforming accounting policy adjustments, where applicable.

The pro forma results provide additional information regarding the revenue scale and gross margin profile of the combined business relative to our reported GAAP results for 2025, which include only a partial period of operations following the acquisition. The pro forma information does not reflect potential cost savings, integration benefits, operational synergies, changes in capital structure subsequent to the acquisition, or the impact of future strategic initiatives.

Interpretation of Pro Forma Results

For the year ended December 31, 2025, pro forma revenues were $121.6 million compared to $111.2 million for 2024, representing an increase of approximately 9%. Pro forma gross profit increased to $26.8 million from $17.3 million, and pro forma gross margin improved to 22% from 16%.

The improvement in pro forma gross margin was driven primarily by favorable pricing dynamics and a shift in sales mix toward higher-margin enterprise customers, which more than offset increases in input costs, including tariffs, during the period.

Operating expenses on a pro forma basis increased to $54.3 million in 2025 from $37.5 million in 2024. The increase reflects continued investment in infrastructure, personnel, public company costs, and development activities, including the TriFan 600 program.

Pro forma net loss from continuing operations was $39.0 million for 2025 compared to $23.9 million in 2024.

Pro Forma Non-GAAP Measure

We also present pro forma non-GAAP net loss, which reflects pro forma results further adjusted to exclude certain non-cash or infrequent items that management believes are not indicative of core operating performance. As a result, Adjusted Pro Forma Net Loss (Non-GAAP) differs from pro forma net loss as it excludes additional non-cash and non-recurring items beyond those reflected in the pro forma adjustments. These items include:

●

Warrant issuance expense;

●

Changes in fair value of warrant liabilities;

●

Changes in fair value of certain investments and related instruments;

●

Loss on extinguishment of debt;

●

Provision for credit losses on investments;

●

Stock-based compensation; and

●

Amortization of acquired intangible assets.

Adjusted Pro Forma Net Loss (Non-GAAP) was $17.3 million in 2025 compared to $17.7 million in 2024.

This non-GAAP measure is intended to supplement, and not be considered as a substitute for, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Adjusted Pro Forma Net Loss (Non-GAAP) has limitations as an analytical tool and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

During 2025, the Company completed multiple capital raising transactions that materially strengthened its balance sheet and liquidity profile. These transactions included approximately $62.8 million of aggregate net proceeds from public equity offerings and warrant exercises and approximately $22.8 million of net proceeds from the issuance of Series 10 Convertible Preferred Stock.

As a result of these transactions, cash and cash equivalents increased to approximately $16.7 million as of December 31, 2025, and the Company reported working capital of approximately $4.2 million, compared to a working capital deficit of approximately $8.8 million as of December 31, 2024.

Working capital at December 31, 2025 includes approximately $22.6 million of derivative warrant liabilities. These instruments are non-cash financial liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value under GAAP and do not represent contractual cash obligations. Excluding these derivative warrant liabilities, working capital would have been approximately $26.8 million.

The breakdown of our overall working capital is as follows (in thousands):

Working Capital	December 31, 2025		December 31, 2024			$ Change
Current Assets
Cash and cash equivalents	$	16,696	$	3,972		$	12,724

Net Working Capital (Deficit)	$	4,220	$	(8,840	)	$	13,060

Total current assets increased to approximately $51.8 million at December 31, 2025, compared to approximately $8.6 million at December 31, 2024, primarily reflecting the addition of accounts receivable and inventories associated with the November 2025 acquisition of Drone Nerds, as well as higher cash balances resulting from capital raising activities during the year.

Total current liabilities increased to approximately $47.6 million at December 31, 2025, compared to approximately $17.4 million at December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to:

●

Recognition of derivative warrant liabilities

●

Higher short-term debt associated with the Drone Nerds acquisition

●

Increased customer deposits and operating liabilities

Credit Facility

In February 2026, subsequent to year-end, Drone Nerds, LLC and Anzu Robotics, LLC, each a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a secured asset-based revolving credit facility providing for borrowings of up to $20.0 million, subject to a borrowing base of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. The facility has a maturity date in 2029 and includes an accordion feature that permits the Company, subject to lender approval and customary conditions, to increase total commitments by up to an additional $25.0 million. The facility is intended to support working capital needs of the Company’s UAS operations and general corporate purposes.

Liquidity Outlook

The Company’s liquidity strategy is focused on maintaining sufficient operating capital to support its enterprise drone distribution business while continuing to develop unmanned platforms for defense and commercial applications Near-term liquidity is expected to be supported by cash on hand, operating cash flows from the Drone Nerds business, and availability under the Company’s asset-based revolving credit facility. 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.

Over the longer term, any future resumption of the TriFan 600 program will require additional capital.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

The Company’s contractual obligations consist primarily of operating lease liabilities, short-term debt and acquisition-related promissory notes, and vendor commitments incurred in the ordinary course of business.

As of December 31, 2025, total operating lease liabilities were approximately $3.0 million, of which approximately $0.6 million is due within the next twelve months. In addition, the Company had short-term debt and acquisition-related promissory note obligations of approximately $7.9 million, representing scheduled principal payments due within one year.

The Company also maintains customary vendor purchase commitments associated with inventory procurement and operating agreements within its Drone Nerds distribution business. These commitments are generally short-term in nature and consistent with normal operating requirements.

Customer Deposits

As of December 31, 2025, customer deposits totaled approximately $3.1 million. Customer deposits consist of (i) refundable and conditional deposits received in connection with aircraft pre-orders and (ii) advance payments received in the ordinary course of business from customers of the Drone Nerds distribution operations. Aircraft-related deposits are generally refundable until a definitive purchase agreement is executed. If a significant number of customers request refunds, it could adversely impact liquidity.

Deposits received in the Drone Nerds business are typically short-term in nature and relate to standard commercial sales arrangements, including advance payments for inventory orders. These deposits are recognized as revenue upon transfer of control of the related goods.

Risks and Uncertainties

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had working capital of approximately $4.2 million (approximately $26.8 million excluding derivative warrant liabilities) and cash and cash equivalents of approximately $16.7 million. During 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $68.5 million and used approximately $36.6 million of cash in operating activities.

In November 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of Drone Nerds, a historically EBITDA-profitable drone distribution business. Management expects the Drone Nerds operations to contribute positive operating cash flows; however, consolidated operating results remain subject to variability in sales volumes, gross margins, inventory turnover, and broader market conditions affecting enterprise and commercial drone demand, as well as risks associated with the ongoing integration of Drone Nerds into the Company’s operations.

The Company has currently paused development activities related to the TriFan 600 aircraft program. Any future resumption of development activities related to the TriFan 600 program would be expected to require additional capital. Management may continue to pursue a range of potential funding alternatives, including equity or debt financing, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, government incentives and other potential sources of capital in connection with any such future resumption.

During 2025, the Company strengthened its liquidity through multiple capital raises, including approximately $62.8 million of aggregate net proceeds from public equity offerings and warrant exercises and approximately $22.8 million of net proceeds from the issuance of Series 10 Convertible Preferred Stock. In addition, in February 2026, the Company entered into a secured asset-based revolving credit facility providing for borrowings of up to $20.0 million, subject to a borrowing base. Based on December 31, 2025 balances, the Company estimates borrowing availability under the facility of approximately $14.5 million, subject to customary borrowing base limitations. The Company had no outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility as of December 31, 2025.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately 23 million outstanding warrants with an exercise price of $2.00 per share. If fully exercised for cash, these warrants would provide aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $46.0 million; however, exercise is at the discretion of the holders and dependent on market conditions. Subsequent to year-end, certain warrant holders have exercised warrants, resulting in cash proceeds to the Company, net of solicitation commissions paid to ThinkEquity LLC, of approximately $7.7 million. While additional warrant exercises may occur depending on market conditions, the timing and amount of any such future exercises cannot be predicted.

Management believes that existing liquidity is sufficient to support current operating requirements for at least the next twelve months. This assessment is based on current operating plans and assumptions, including the Company’s ability to manage expenditures and utilize available sources of liquidity, including cash on hand and borrowing availability under its credit facility.

Historical Cash Flows

The Company’s net cash flows used in operating, investing and financing activities for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 and certain balances as of the end of those periods are as follows (in thousands):

	For the Years Ended December 31,
	2025			2024

Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities		(18,762	)		2,853
Net cash provided by financing activities		68,210			23,564

	As of December 31,		As of December 31,
	2025		2024
Cash and cash equivalents	$	16,696	$	3,972
Working capital (deficit)	$	4,220	$	(8,840	)

Operating Activities for the year ended December 31, 2025

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $36.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to approximately $22.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Included in operating cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025 is approximately $4.4 million of cash used in operating activities related to discontinued operations (Inpixon Business). Excluding discontinued operations, net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations was approximately $32.2 million. Additional information regarding cash flows from discontinued operations is included in Note 19 – Discontinued Operations.

Cash used in operating activities during 2025 was primarily driven by the Company’s consolidated net loss of approximately $68.5 million, partially offset by $33.1 million of non-cash expenses. The most significant non-cash items in 2025 included stock-based compensation expense of approximately $12.0 million, goodwill impairment of approximately $9.9 million, warrant-related expense of approximately $6.6 million, provision for expected credit losses of approximately $2.1 million, and intangible asset impairment charges of approximately $0.6 million.

Working capital changes during 2025 resulted in a net use of approximately $1.2 million of cash. These changes primarily reflected reductions in accrued liabilities and accounts payable, partially offset by decreases in inventory and other current assets. The 2025 working capital activity reflects the integration of the Drone Nerds acquisition in the fourth quarter.

Management expects that the acquisition of Drone Nerds, a historically EBITDA-profitable business, will contribute positive operating cash flows going forward. However, operating cash flows will continue to be influenced by sales volumes, gross margins, inventory turnover, discretionary operating expenditures, and the pace of investment in the development of unmanned platforms for defense and commercial applications.

Operating Activities for the year ended December 31, 2024

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $22.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Operating cash usage in 2024 was primarily driven by the Company’s net loss of approximately $35.6 million, partially offset by non-cash expenses of approximately $5.8 million. Non-cash adjustments included stock-based compensation, impairment charges, fair value adjustments related to financial instruments, and loss on extinguishment of debt.

Working capital changes in 2024 provided approximately $7.5 million of cash, primarily due to increases in accrued liabilities and other operating liabilities, partially offset by modest changes in receivables and deferred revenue.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities as of December 31, 2025 and 2024

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $18.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of approximately $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Investing cash outflows during 2025 were primarily attributable to the acquisition of Drone Nerds, which resulted in a net cash outflow of approximately $16.5 million after considering cash acquired. In addition, the Company funded a $2.0 million investment in a convertible note receivable and incurred approximately $0.2 million of capital expenditures for property and equipment. These outflows were partially offset by minor investing activities.

Investing cash inflows during 2024 were primarily attributable to approximately $3.0 million of cash acquired in connection with the XTI Merger, partially offset by modest capital expenditures.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities as of December 31, 2025 and 2024

Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $68.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to approximately $23.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Financing cash inflows during 2025 were primarily driven by capital raising activities, including approximately $57.1 million of net proceeds from public offerings of common stock and pre-funded warrants, $22.8 million of net proceeds from the issuance of Series 10 Convertible Preferred Stock, $1.7 million of net proceeds from the Company’s at-the-market (“ATM”) program, which has since expired, and approximately $4.1 million of proceeds from the exercise of liability-classified warrants. These inflows were partially offset by approximately $15.9 million of debt repayments and $1.4 million related to redemptions of Series 9 Preferred Stock and other financing costs. These debt repayments and redemptions, together with the elimination of certain legacy financing obligations associated with the XTI Merger, represented meaningful uses of cash during the period, simplified the Company’s capital structure and removed historical financing restrictions.

Financing cash inflows during 2024 were primarily attributable to approximately $22.2 million of net proceeds from ATM stock offerings, $2.0 million of proceeds from the issuance of promissory notes, and approximately $1.0 million received under a loan arrangement with Legacy Inpixon prior to the XTI Merger. These inflows were partially offset by debt repayments and preferred stock redemptions.

The significant increase in financing cash flows during 2025 reflects the Company’s efforts to strengthen its liquidity position, fund operating losses, repay outstanding indebtedness, and support strategic initiatives, including the acquisition of Drone Nerds and continued development of the TriFan 600 aircraft program.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of

XTI Aerospace, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of XTI Aerospace, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, based on our audit, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Business Combination

The Company completed a significant business combination during the year. Accounting for this business combination involved significant judgment and estimation by management, particularly in determining the fair value of identifiable intangible assets and liabilities acquired, as well as the resulting goodwill. The Company used various valuation models and engaged third-party specialists to assist in these valuations. Given the complexity and judgment involved in accounting for the business combination, we identified the evaluation of the business combination as a critical audit matter. This involved significant audit effort and the use of professionals with specialized skills and knowledge.

F-2

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to business combination include the following, among others:

●

We obtained an understanding of the terms and conditions of the business combination by reviewing the purchase agreement and other related documents.

●

We evaluated the appropriateness of the valuation methodologies used by management to determine the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. This included reviewing the discounted cash flow models, market approach, and cost approach used for the valuation.

●

We tested the completeness and accuracy of the purchase price allocation by verifying the consideration transferred

●

We involved our valuation specialists to assist in assessing the methodologies and assumptions used by management in the fair value measurements of the acquired intangible assets

XTI AEROSPACE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024

Note 1 - Description of Business and Organization

The following describes the Company’s business and organizational structure:

Business

XTI Aerospace, Inc. (the “Company”) is a U.S.-based aerospace company focused on unmanned aircraft systems (“UAS”) and related services. The Company provides UAS solutions through a combination of product distribution and service offerings, including the sale and support of UAS platforms, payloads, sensors, batteries, accessories and related equipment, as well as operator training, program enablement, repair and maintenance, and other fleet lifecycle support services for enterprise, public safety, government, and defense-related customers. The Company is also starting in 2026 the design and development of unmanned platforms for defense and commercial applications.

Organization

On March 12, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), the Company, formerly known as Inpixon (“Legacy Inpixon”), completed a reverse triangular merger with XTI Aircraft Company, a Delaware corporation (“Legacy XTI”), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 24, 2023, as amended (the “XTI Merger”). In connection with the transaction, Legacy XTI became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company changed its name to “XTI Aerospace, Inc.” The Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “XTIA” on March 13, 2024. The XTI Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition, with Legacy XTI treated as the accounting acquirer and Legacy Inpixon treated as the accounting acquiree. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements represent a continuation of the financial statements of Legacy XTI, and include the results of operations of Legacy Inpixon from the Closing Date.

In November 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of Drone Nerds, LLC and Anzu Robotics, LLC (collectively, “Drone Nerds”) through XTI Drones Holdings, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“XTI Drones Holdings”). The Company holds an 83.403% controlling equity interest in XTI Drones Holdings through its ownership of Class A Units, and the remaining 16.597% equity interest is held by other Class B unitholders. The results of Drone Nerds have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from November 10, 2025, the acquisition date, and the ownership interest not held by the Company is reflected as noncontrolling interest. Drone Nerds currently represents the Company’s primary UAS solutions and services operations.

During December 2025, the Company committed to a plan to dispose of its historical Industrial IoT / real-time location systems (“RTLS”) operations (the “Inpixon Business”) and classified the business as held for sale. The disposition of the Inpixon Business was completed on February 3, 2026. The Inpixon Business historically comprised the Company’s Industrial IoT operations, which previously represented the Company’s Industrial IoT reportable segment. The results of the Inpixon Business have been presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. Unless otherwise indicated, the information included in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements relates to the Company’s continuing operations. See Note 19 for additional information regarding discontinued operations.

Reverse Stock Splits

On January 10, 2025, the Company effected a 1-for-250 reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock. Prior to that, on March 12, 2024, the Company effected a 1-for-100 reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock. The par value of the common stock was not changed as a result of either reverse stock split.

All share and per share amounts presented in these consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock splits.

Note 2 - Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. The results of Drone Nerds have been included in the consolidated financial statements from November 10, 2025, the acquisition date. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Note 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Liquidity

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $16.7 million and no outstanding borrowings under its credit facility. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $68.5 million and used approximately $36.6 million of cash in operating activities.

Management has evaluated the Company’s liquidity and capital requirements in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. The Company’s historical operating losses and negative cash flows from operations could raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s liquidity position has been supported by capital raising activities during 2025, including public offerings of equity securities and the issuance of convertible preferred stock. In addition, the Company has access to financing arrangements, including an asset-based lending facility, which provides borrowing availability subject to a borrowing base. Management expects to fund operations through a combination of existing cash balances, borrowing availability under its credit facility, and its ability to manage discretionary expenditures. While the Company may pursue additional capital raising activities, such activities are not considered in management’s assessment of its ability to meet its obligations.

Based on these considerations, management believes that the Company will have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations for at least twelve months from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each of the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates consist of:

	●	the valuation of stock-based compensation

	●	the fair value measurements associated with business combinations, including the valuation of acquired intangible assets and leases, goodwill, and non-cash consideration;

	●	the valuation and impairment assessment of goodwill and intangible assets;

	●	the allowance for credit losses on accounts receivable;

	●	the valuation of financial instruments measured at fair value;

	●	the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash consists primarily of demand deposit bank accounts, which, from time to time, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity from date of purchase of three months or less, or that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash, to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not hold any cash equivalents.

Statement of Cash Flows

The Company presents cash flows from financing activities on a net basis for transactions in which proceeds are received net of offering costs and other transaction fees.

F-13

XTI AEROSPACE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024

The Company has elected to present cash flows from discontinued operations on a net basis within each category of the consolidated statements of cash flows. Accordingly, the consolidated statements of cash flows do not separately present cash flows from discontinued operations within operating, investing and financing activities. Additional information regarding discontinued operations is included in Note 19.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of finished goods held for resale, including drones and related accessories, and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. The Company does not manufacture these products and instead purchases inventory from third-party suppliers, including, in certain cases, products manufactured on its behalf by third-party contract manufacturers, for distribution to enterprise, public safety, government and commercial customers.

Inventory costs include amounts paid to suppliers and other costs incurred to bring inventories to their present location and condition, including freight and handling costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses are expensed as incurred and are not included in inventory cost.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. The Company evaluates inventory on a regular basis for excess, slow-moving or obsolete items based on historical sales trends, forecasted demand, product lifecycle considerations and market conditions. When required, the Company records a reserve to write down inventory to net realizable value.

Credit Risk and Concentrations

Financial instruments that subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivable and cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents primarily with high-credit-quality financial institutions in the United States and, prior to the Inpixon Business disposition, in Germany. Cash balances maintained with financial institutions in the United States are generally in excess of federally insured limits. The Company mitigates its credit risk by limiting its exposure to any single financial institution and by monitoring the credit quality of its counterparties. The Company places its cash with financial institutions that have long-term credit ratings of at least A- or equivalent, as assigned by major credit rating agencies.

The Company performs certain credit evaluation procedures and does not require collateral for financial instruments subject to credit risk. The Company believes that credit risk is limited because the Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of its customers, establishes an allowance for credit losses.

The following table presents a rollforward of the Company’s allowance for credit losses (in thousands):

	Year Ended December 31, 2025
	Trade A/R		Note Receivable		Total
Beginning balance	$	—	$	—	$	—
Provision for credit losses		—		2,039		2,039
Ending balance	$	—	$	2,039	$	2,039

Trade accounts receivable acquired in connection with the Drone Nerds acquisition were recorded at fair value at the acquisition date, which reflects expected credit losses. No provision for credit losses was recorded related to these receivables during the post-acquisition period. Due to the short time between the acquisition date and the year end, and the existence of credit insurance coverage on these receivables, any incremental anticipated credit losses from Drone Nerds accounts receivable were not material.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of approximately $2.0 million related to a convertible promissory note receivable. As of December 31, 2025, the note receivable was fully reserved (see Note 13).

The provision for credit losses presented in the consolidated statement of cash flows includes approximately $0.1 million related to discontinued operations, which is excluded from the allowance rollforward above.

Intangible Assets and Goodwill

Finite-lived intangible assets primarily consist of developed technology, patents, customer relationships, and trade names and trademarks. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, generally ranging from 5 to 15 years. The Company reviews the estimated useful lives of intangible assets periodically and adjusts them if necessary.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually as of October 1, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired.

The Company may first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the Company bypasses the qualitative assessment, or if the qualitative assessment indicates potential impairment, the Company performs a quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value, an impairment charge is recognized in an amount equal to the excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.

The Company estimates the fair value of its reporting units using the income approach and/or the market approach. The income approach is based on discounted cash flow models that include assumptions regarding projected revenues, expenses, cash flows, long-term growth rates, and discount rates. The market approach is based on comparable market data and valuation multiples of similar companies.

Long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets and operating lease right-of-use assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability is assessed by comparing the carrying amount of the asset group to the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset group. If the carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds fair value.

Long-lived assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Depreciation and amortization cease upon classification as held for sale. See Note 19 – Discontinued Operations for impairment charges recognized in connection with the classification of the Inpixon Business as held for sale.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024

Leases

The Company determines whether an arrangement is or contains a lease at contract inception. A lease exists when a contract conveys the right to control the use of identified property or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

The Company recognizes a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a corresponding lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months at the commencement date. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset over the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.

Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term, including renewal options that are reasonably certain to be exercised. Because the rate implicit in the lease is generally not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement to discount lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate represents the rate of interest the Company would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis, an amount equal to the lease payments over a similar term in a similar economic environment.

ROU assets are measured based on the initial lease liability, adjusted for lease payments made at or before commencement, lease incentives received, and initial direct costs.

Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate are expensed as incurred and are not included in the measurement of lease liabilities. These primarily include payments based on usage or other variable factors.

The Company has elected the short-term lease exemption for leases with a term of 12 months or less. The Company has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components for all classes of underlying assets and account for them as a single lease component.

The Company reassesses leases upon the occurrence of certain events, including modifications or changes in circumstances that impact the lease term or expected lease payments. When a lease liability is remeasured, a corresponding adjustment is made to the related ROU asset.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Revenue is recognized when control of promised goods transfers to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods.

Revenue from continuing operations is primarily derived from the sale and distribution of high-end drones, related equipment, accessories, and components to wholesale and retail customers.

F-17

XTI AEROSPACE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024

Product Sales

Revenue is recognized at a point in time when control transfers to the customer, which generally occurs:

●

Upon shipment for wholesale transactions (FOB shipping point), or

●

At the point of sale for retail transactions.

The Company is generally the principal in its sales arrangements as it controls the goods prior to transfer to the customer, establishes pricing, bears inventory and credit risk, and is responsible for fulfillment. Accordingly, revenue is recognized on a gross basis. In limited instances, the Company facilitates the sale of third-party service offerings (e.g., product protection programs), for which it acts as an agent and recognizes revenue on a net basis; such amounts are not material.

Payment terms vary by customer and channel and generally range from immediate payment at retail to 30–60 days for wholesale customers.

The transaction price may include variable consideration in the form of volume discounts, rebates, and estimated product returns. Revenue is recognized net of estimated returns and allowances. The Company estimates refund liabilities based on historical return patterns and current trends and records a reserve at each reporting date.

Freight billed to customers is included in net sales. Shipping and handling costs are treated as fulfillment costs and included in cost of sales.

Deferred revenue represents customer payments received in advance of shipment. Revenue is recognized when the related product is shipped and control transfers to the customer. The Company does not have material contract assets.

The Company may also provide certain service-based offerings, including product protection programs, that represent stand-ready obligations satisfied over time. Revenue associated with these arrangements is recognized over the coverage period. Such arrangements are not material to the consolidated financial statements.

Vendor Consideration

Consideration received from vendors, including price protection, rebates, and promotional incentives, is accounted for as a reduction of cost of sales in accordance with ASC 705-20, Cost of Sales and Services—Accounting for Consideration Received from a Vendor.

Practical Expedients

The Company has elected the practical expedient related to significant financing components, as the period between transfer of goods and customer payment is generally one year or less. The Company also expenses incremental costs of obtaining contracts when the amortization period would have been one year or less.

While the Company offers certain services, software, and training as part of its UAS solutions, these offerings are generally sold on a standalone basis or are not material, and therefore do not result in material multiple performance obligation arrangements requiring allocation of transaction price.

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. Stock-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded within the accompanying consolidated statements of operations based on the functional classification of the related employee.

For awards with service-based vesting conditions only, the Company recognizes compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur.

Stock Options

The Company estimates the grant-date fair value of stock option awards using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes model requires the use of subjective assumptions, including the expected term of the option, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividend yield. Changes in these assumptions could materially affect the fair value of stock option awards and the related stock-based compensation expense.

The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model are determined as follows:

●

Fair Value of Common Stock — For awards granted after the Company became publicly traded in connection with the XTI Merger, the fair value of the Company’s common stock is based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. For awards granted prior to the XTI Merger, the fair value of Legacy XTI’s common stock was determined by Legacy XTI’s board of directors with assistance from third-party valuation specialists.

●

Expected Term — The expected term represents the period that stock options are expected to be outstanding. The Company estimates expected term using the simplified method, which is based on the midpoint between the vesting date and the contractual term, as the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to estimate expected term.

●

Expected Volatility — The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, or, for periods where sufficient historical information is not available, a peer group of publicly traded companies considered comparable to the Company.

●

Risk-Free Interest Rate — The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for a term consistent with the expected term of the award.

●

Expected Dividend Yield — The Company has never declared or paid cash dividends on its common stock and does not currently expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, an expected dividend yield of zero is used.

Legacy XTI did not grant stock options after 2023.

Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

Net loss attributable to common stockholders reflects net loss adjusted for any dividends declared or accumulated on preferred stock and increased or reduced by net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests.

Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period, including stock options, warrants (including pre-funded warrants), convertible preferred stock, and other instruments that may be settled in shares of common stock, using the treasury stock method or the if-converted method, as applicable.

For periods in which the Company reports a net loss, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share because the inclusion of potentially dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive.

Potentially dilutive securities excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share are disclosed separately in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as for net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply in the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.

The Company evaluates deferred tax assets on a jurisdictional basis and establishes a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including historical operating results, projected future taxable income, reversal of existing temporary differences, and tax planning strategies. Changes in the valuation allowance are recorded in income tax expense in the period of change.

The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Recognized income tax positions are measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

The Company’s income tax expense (benefit) includes federal, state, and foreign income taxes, as applicable.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer serves as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and evaluates financial performance and allocates resources based on segment operating results. The Company has two reportable segments: (i) Unmanned Aircraft Systems (“UAS”) and (ii) Commercial Aviation. Segment information is prepared on the same basis as the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 5 – Business Combinations

XTI Merger (March 2024)

The XTI Merger was accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Legacy Inpixon was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. This determination is primarily based on the fact that subsequent to the XTI Merger, Legacy XTI maintains control of the Board of Directors and management of the Company, and the preexisting shareholders of Legacy XTI have majority voting rights of the Company. For accounting purposes, the acquirer is the entity that has obtained control of another entity and, thus, consummated a business combination. Accordingly, Legacy XTI’s assets and liabilities are recorded at carrying value and the assets and liabilities associated with Legacy Inpixon are recorded at estimated fair value as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired, if applicable, is recognized as goodwill. A significant portion of the acquired operations (the Inpixon Business) was subsequently classified as held for sale and is presented as discontinued operations. See Note 19 – Discontinued Operations for additional information.

The below summarizes the total consideration transferred in the business combination (in thousands):

Fair value of common stock	$	10,939
Fair value of warrants		3,250
Fair value of preferred stock		11,302
Fair value of debt assumed		114
Total consideration	$	25,605

The Company determined the estimated fair value of common stock included in consideration to be calculated based on Legacy Inpixon’s common stock outstanding of 2,075,743 multiplied by the price of Legacy Inpixon’s common stock on March 12, 2024 of $5.27 (which reflects the 1-for-100 reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding common stock that became effective before the closing of the XTI Merger). The Company utilized Legacy Inpixon’s common stock price in determining fair value as it is more reliably measurable than the value of Legacy XTI’s (accounting acquirer) equity interests given it is not a publicly traded entity.

The aggregate fair value of warrants was approximately $3.3 million was included in the total equity consideration. A portion of this total represents 918,689 warrants outstanding by the Company with a fair value of $1.00 per warrant, which is the warrant’s redemption value. The warrant fair value was determined to be the redemption value as the warrants include protective covenants for the Company that prevent the holder from exercising the warrants. The remainder of this total represents 491,310 warrants with a fair value of $4.75 per warrant, which was determined by using level 3 inputs and utilizing a Black-Scholes valuation. Significant inputs related to these warrants are as follows:

Fair value of common stock	$	5.27
Exercise price	$	5.13
Expected term		4.76 years
Volatility		146	%
Risk-free interest rate		4.2	%
Dividend yield		—	%

The fair value of preferred stock of approximately $11.3 million included in the total equity consideration represents 11,302 shares of Series 9 Preferred Stock that were issued and outstanding by the Company upon the consummation of the XTI Merger at a stated value and fair value of $1,000 per share.

Asset-Based Revolving Line of Credit (Drone Nerds)

At the time of the Company’s acquisition of Drone Nerds in November 2025, Drone Nerds was party to an asset-based revolving credit facility with a financial institution with a maximum borrowing capacity of $25.0 million (the “Revolving Facility”).

Outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility were assumed by the Company as part of the acquisition. In connection with the transaction, the lender required that the outstanding balance be repaid in full at closing. Accordingly, shortly after closing, the Company funded approximately $10.5 million to Drone Nerds to fully repay the outstanding borrowings. No amounts were outstanding under the Revolving Facility as of December 31, 2025.

In February 2026, the Revolving Facility was replaced by a new revolving credit facility with a financial institution. See Note 20 for additional information.

Warrant Classification

Liability-Classified Warrants

Certain common warrants issued in the 2025 Offerings were classified as liabilities under ASC 815 due to adjustment and settlement provisions. These warrants were recorded at fair value upon issuance and are remeasured at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. See Note 13 for additional information regarding the valuation methodology and significant assumptions used in determining the fair value of the warrant liabilities.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized:

	●	A net loss of approximately $0.6 million related to changes in fair value of warrant liabilities; and

●

Warrant issuance expense of approximately $6.6 million related to excess fair value allocations and expense allocation.

Mezzanine Equity Warrants

Placement agent and representative warrants issued in connection with the 2025 Offerings and the Series 10 Convertible Preferred Stock financing were classified as temporary (mezzanine) equity because certain fundamental transaction provisions could require settlement in cash or other consideration in a change-in-control transaction that is not solely within the Company’s control.

In connection with the 2025 Offerings, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,370,488 placement agent and representative warrants with an exercise price ranging between $2.00 and $17.1875 per share and a five-year term. These warrants are presented in mezzanine equity and were recorded at approximately $1.0 million, net of issuance costs of approximately $0.1 million.

In connection with the November 2025 Series 10 Convertible Preferred Stock financing, the Company issued 837,801 placement agent warrants with an exercise price of $1.429 per share and a five-year term. These warrants are presented in mezzanine equity and were recorded at approximately $1.7 million, net of issuance costs of approximately $0.1 million.

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024

The placement agent and representative warrants were recorded at fair value on the issuance date using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Significant assumptions used in the valuation included the Company’s stock price on the grant date, the contractual exercise price, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected term, and dividend yield. Expected volatility was estimated based on the historical volatility of a peer group of publicly traded companies considered comparable to the Company and adjusted to reflect the Company’s capital structure, as the Company did not have sufficient trading history for a term consistent with the warrants. The significant assumptions used in the valuation included a stock price of $1.51, an exercise price of $1.492, expected volatility of 130.0%, a risk-free interest rate of 3.65%, an expected term of 5.0 years, and a dividend yield of 0.0%. The risk-free interest rate was based on U.S. Treasury yields commensurate with the expected term of the warrants. The Company assumed a dividend yield of zero. These warrants are not subsequently remeasured to fair value and remain recorded within mezzanine equity unless reclassification is required upon the resolution of the underlying contingency.

PREFERRED STOCK

Series 10 Convertible Preferred Stock

On November 12, 2025, the Company issued 25,000 shares of Series 10 Convertible Preferred Stock at a stated value of $1,000 per share for gross proceeds of $25.0 million. Net proceeds of approximately $22.8 million reflect approximately $2.2 million of placement agent fees, underwriting expenses, and other offering costs.

Key terms included:

	●	12% cumulative dividend

	●	Conversion price of $1.492 per share

	●	Beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99% (or 9.99% at holder election)

●

No redemption rights

The Series 10 Preferred was classified within stockholders’ equity.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, cumulative dividends on the Series 10 Convertible Preferred Stock of approximately $0.4 million were deducted from net loss in computing net loss attributable to common stockholders for purposes of basic and diluted net loss per share.

The Series 10 Convertible Preferred Stock was convertible into shares of common stock; however, because the Company reported a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2025, the effect of conversion was antidilutive and therefore excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share.

Shareholder approval for conversion was obtained in December 2025. In January 2026, all outstanding shares of Series 10 Preferred automatically converted into common stock and a pre-funded warrant pursuant to beneficial ownership limitations. See Note 20 – Subsequent Events.

Series 9 Preferred Stock

In March 2024, the Company issued Series 9 Preferred Stock in connection with debt exchanges and cash financing.
