ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Nov. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- XTI Aerospace, Inc. ("XTI" or the "Company") [NASDAQ: XTIA], the developer of vertical flight technologies and the TriFan 600 next-generation vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft for commercial and defense aerospace applications and the emerging Vertical EconomyÔ, today announced the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2025, and provided an update on recent corporate milestones and strategic initiatives. "The third quarter marked one of the most significant periods of technical and strategic progress in our company's history," said Scott Pomeroy, Chairman and CEO of XTI Aerospace. "We continued our monthly FAA engagement across multiple certification disciplines, completed subscale flight operations that validated key elements of our TriFan 600 design, secured an avionics system for the TriFan 600, and expanded our innovation ecosystem with globally recognized partners. At the same time, the FAA and Trump Administration released landmark policy guidance that aligns with XTI's long-term vision for both manned and unmanned vertical mobility. Collectively, these developments reinforce our conviction in the TriFan 600 and our broader strategy to shape the future of the Vertical Economy." "Just as importantly, we continue to strengthen our business fundamentals," continued Pomeroy. " We closed an $18.5 million (net) public offering to support ongoing engineering work and significantly enhanced our balance sheet through disciplined capital execution. Our subscale aircraft program, new advisory talent, expanded customer-centric design initiatives with IDEO, and deepening propulsion and autonomy partnerships all position XTI for measurable near-term progress as we work toward the TriFan 600 piloted demonstrator in 2027. We believe the third quarter represents a clear acceleration in momentum across every dimension of our plan." Third Quarter 2025 Business Highlights TriFan 600 Development Milestones

Strategic Outlook XTI Aerospace enters the next phase of its development with strong technical momentum, an expanded strategic ecosystem, and a meaningfully enhanced operating footprint across both manned and unmanned vertical flight. With the TriFan 600 program advancing through a milestone-driven engineering plan, the Company is simultaneously building the capabilities, partnerships, and revenue platforms that will support long-term scale in the Vertical Economy. Subsequent to quarter end, XTI completed several transformational initiatives that significantly broaden its strategic posture. The Company acquired Drone Nerds, one of the largest U.S.-based drone distributors and enterprise UAS solution providers, adding a profitable, high-scale operating business with deep industry relationships and more than $100 million in 2024 revenue. At the same time, XTI secured a $25 million strategic investment from Unusual Machines (UMAC), a leading U.S. supplier to the drone industry, strengthening the balance sheet while creating powerful alignment across the domestic drone ecosystem. These steps will support XTI's evolution into a diversified vertical-flight technology company while expanding its near-term revenue mix and positioning it at the center of U.S. unmanned aviation. XTI also announced the Valkyrie Vanguard Platform, a collaboration integrating applied AI, advanced materials, and mesh intelligence into next-generation VTOL development. The alliance expands upon Valkyrie CEO Charlie Burgoyne's role on XTI's Corporate Advisory Board and is designed to accelerate development processes, enhance digital-twin capabilities, and enable intelligent system architectures for future aircraft. Together, these initiatives will provide foundational capabilities that complement the TriFan 600's technical roadmap and broaden the Company's long-term differentiation. As XTI advances toward its planned 2027 piloted demonstrator, the Company's strategic priorities will include:
"Our strategy continues to accelerate in scope and maturity," said Pomeroy. "With the acquisition of Drone Nerds, the strategic investment from UMAC, the launch of the Vanguard Platform with Valkyrie, and the ongoing advancement of the TriFan 600, we are building a multi-dimensional vertical flight company positioned for leadership across manned aviation, unmanned systems, and intelligent aerospace technologies. We believe these combined capabilities will define the next era of the Vertical Economy and deliver transformative value to customers, partners, and shareholders." About XTI Aerospace, Inc.
