(Nasdaq: SPAI) (“Safe Pro” or the “Company”), a developer of artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled defense, security, and situational awareness solutions, today announced that, based on preliminary, unaudited financial data, it expects revenue in the second quarter of 2026 to increase over 1,300% year-over-year to over $1.3 million, compared with approximately $92,753 in the second quarter of 2025, driven by multiple U.S. Army subcontract awards for its AI-powered threat detection and mapping software packages. The rapid year-over-year revenue growth reflects the continued selection of Safe Pro’s AI software by the U.S. Army and defense prime contractors who are seeking its advanced solutions for mapping threats, enhancing situational awareness, and mission planning applications. As evidenced by multiple recent awards, the Company is actively expanding its AI offering to run on multiple drone platforms and autonomous ground vehicles (UGVs) used by the U.S. Army. This expansion also includes potential use of the Company’s technology by additional defense customers such as the U.S. Air Force and for post-conflict reconstruction, rebuilding and rare earth mineral and agricultural reclamation efforts.

The Company’s patented SPOTD (Safe Pro Object Threat Detection) technology enables rapid analysis of drone imagery to identify and map potential explosive hazards, significantly reducing reliance on manual review while improving mission speed and operator safety. SPOTD is powered by battle-tested AI and machine learning algorithms trained on one of the world’s largest real-world drone-based imagery datasets to instantly detect small, hard-to-find threats such as landmines, cluster munitions, UXO, and ambush drones. The SPOTD platform can identify more than 150 types of explosive threats and objects of interest across large-scale, high-risk environments, turning drone-based video data into detailed 2D &amp; 3D models including the generation of orthomosaics, vegetation height, terrain slope and digital surface maps all incorporating detected threats. By uniquely fusing AI-powered threat detection and drone-based mapping, Safe Pro can provide rapid situational awareness to end users on the battlefield or around the world. Built on battle-tested AI, Safe Pro’s technology converts raw visual data collected by drones into rapidly shareable, high-resolution 2D and 3D maps, providing a novel and scalable approach to situational awareness on the battlefield. Safe Pro’s AI dataset includes more than 2.9 million drone images and over 51,750 confirmed detections collected in over 37,835 acres of land in Ukraine.
