Management Commentary

"Our focus in 2026 will center on accelerating the development of our AI data center portfolio. Over the past year, we strategically invested across three major projects, establishing a strong foundation to execute our transition into AI infrastructure and next-gen data center platforms as demand continues to rise. With a clean balance sheet and liquidity flexibility to deploy capital, we believe we are well positioned to advance our build out, expand our joint ventures, and pursue what we view as some of the most compelling return opportunities in AI computing.

To that end, we are pleased to announce the significant progress made on the third milestone of our Canadian hyperscale data center projects. Milestone 3 centers on validating energy access and grid feasibility, an essential step before commencing environmental permitting and detailed power-infrastructure planning needed to ultimately secure hyperscale tenants or project financing. We expect to complete Milestone 3 soon. Meanwhile, our 2026 efforts for the Moapa campus will center on detailed power studies and pre-construction planning.

With flyExclusive having filed its Form 10-K last Thursday, both parties remain confident in closing the transaction by April 30. While the process has taken longer than anticipated, we are encouraged to be approaching the final stage and believe completing this transaction will create a clearer, more focused path for Jet.AI's future growth in the high demand AI compute sector."
