Edge Total Intelligence Reports Second Quarter and First Half 2026 Results

First half revenue increased 211% to $3.6 million following acquisition of Australian defense operations while first half net loss increased 55% to $3.6 million when compared to same period last year.

Arlington, Virginia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 31, 2026) - Edge Total Intelligence Inc. (TSXV: CTRL) (OTCQB: UNFYF) (FSE: Q5I) ("edgeTI" or the "Company") today reported financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. All amounts are in United States dollars unless otherwise indicated.

Revenue for the second quarter was $1,961,464, an increase of 380% from $408,390 in the second quarter of 2025 and an increase of 16% from $1,685,848 in the first quarter of 2026. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $3,647,312, an increase of 211% from $1,172,612 in the corresponding period of 2025. Both figures exceed the top end of the preliminary, unaudited ranges the Company disclosed on August 17, 2026.

Although revenue growth was substantial, the Company continued to incur significant losses. Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $3.6 million, an increase of 55% compared with $2.3 million in the prior-year period. The increase reflected higher operating costs associated with the acquisition, integration activities and expenditures related to the Company's preparation for a potential U.S. exchange listing.

Growth by segment in the period was driven primarily by the January 2026 acquisition of technology assets and related operations from Austal Limited ("Austal") , which contributed revenue of $1,002,771 in the quarter and $2,023,508 in the six-month period through the Company's Australian subsidiary. Revenue from the Company's U.S. operating segment grew 135% in the quarter to $958,694 and 38% in the six-month period to $1,623,804.

"Our first half reflects revenue growth and increased costs from the Australian operations acquired from Austal joined by continued growth in our U.S. business. At the same time, we continue to operate at a net loss and remain focused on improving our operating efficiency, integrating the acquired operations and strengthening our financial position. We are closely monitoring Australia's July 2, 2026 Defence Industry Development Strategy (DIDS) following recent government policy announcements and developments affecting the defense sector. At this stage, the Company cannot determine whether these developments will have any material impact on its business," said Jason Nichols, Chief Executive Officer of edgeTI.

Financial Position and Liquidity

• Finance costs increased $804,475, or 223%, primarily from interest and accretion on the convertible debentures issued in December 2025, which had no comparable impact in the prior-year period.
• Cash used in operating activities of $1,493,098. Cash provided by financing activities of $584,733, compared with $3,331,440 in the prior-year period, which included a January 2025 private placement.
• Warrant exercises of 1,554,710 warrants for gross proceeds of $709,895 (C$967,826).

• Total assets of $11,302,876 as at June 30, 2026, compared with $9,307,040 as at December 31, 2025, with the increase driven primarily by intangible assets acquired from Austal and receivables in the Australian subsidiary.
• Total liabilities of $13,822,601 as at June 30, 2026, compared with $11,855,893 as at December 31, 2025, with the increase driven primarily by deferred revenue, derivative liabilities, convertible debt and the liabilities of the newly consolidated Australian entity.
• Working capital of $843,895 as at June 30, 2026, down from $2,111,106 as at December 31, 2025.

Negative cash flows and immediate liabilities cast doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, as future operational or financing inflows remain uncertain. The Company is actively addressing these uncertainties through a combination of revenue growth initiatives, operating improvements and external financing; however, there can be no assurance that such efforts will be successful.

Operational Highlights

• Austal transaction closed and Australian operations established. On January 5, 2026, the Company completed the acquisition of certain technology assets and related operations of Austal, comprising aviation planning software, a branched Lifecycle Upkeep Sustainment Intelligence solution, a marine-focused enterprise asset management suite, other branched workflow and automation products and supporting intellectual property licenses.

Cautionary Statements, Summary Information
Information presented in this press release may be only a summary of all available information and does not purport to be a full representation of all figures, notes and discussions provided for in the Interim Financial Statements and the MD&A. Readers are cautioned to read the entirety of the Interim Financial Statements and the MD&A, and to not rely only on the information presented in this press release. In the event of conflict between the provisions of this press release on the one hand, and the Interim Financial Statements and the MD&A on the other hand, the information in the Interim Financial Statements and the MD&A shall govern.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release, the Company has used the following terms ("Non-GAAP Financial Measures") that are not defined by IFRS, but are used by management to evaluate the performance of the company and its business. These measures may also be used by investors, financial institutions and credit rating agencies to assess the Company's performance and ability to service debt. Non-GAAP Financial Measures do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Securities regulations require that Non-GAAP Financial Measures are clearly defined, qualified and reconciled to their most comparable IFRS financial measures. Except as otherwise indicated, these Non-GAAP Financial Measures are calculated and disclosed on a consistent basis from period to period. Specific items may only be relevant in certain periods. See the disclosure under the heading "Non-IFRS Measures" in the MD&A for a discussion of such measures. The intent of Non-GAAP Financial Measures is to provide additional useful information to investors and analysts, and the measures do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS. The measures should not, therefore, be considered in isolation or used as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other issuers may calculate Non-GAAP Financial Measures differently. Non-GAAP Financial Measures are identified and defined as follows:

• Gross Profit: Gross Profit is a non-IFRS financial measure and does not have a standardized meaning under IFRS. Accordingly, it may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other issuers. The Company defines Gross Profit as revenue less cost of sales. Management uses Gross Profit (a method akin to U.S. GAAP), to assess the direct profitability of the Company's products and services and believes it provides investors with supplemental information regarding operating performance.
• Gross Margin: Gross Margin is a non-IFRS financial ratio and does not have a standardized meaning under IFRS. Accordingly, it may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other issuers. The Company defines Gross Margin as Gross Profit divided by revenue, expressed as a percentage (a method akin to U.S. GAAP). Management uses Gross Margin to assess the efficiency of the Company's revenue-generating activities and believes it provides investors with supplemental information regarding operating performance.
